4:3 vs. 16:9 video formats

[StJones7]

When you are creating a slideshow in "Video Wave" and you start the wizard by selecting 4:3 instead of 16:9 before you import the pictures, can you ever change it? If so, how? I created a video and meant to do it as 16:9 so I could output in HD. Is there any way I can change the format in Video Wave? Thanks.

No, unfortunately. You have to do your production over again.

I think that we have all been down that road before.

As you can now get the old animated Disney movies on Blu-Ray, they added extra (static) landscapes to the left and to the right of the original movie to fill the gap, say, some trees while Snow White was walking in the forest, etc.

 

Need some getting used to...
