Program Monitor Size Problem

May 24, 2012 9:27 AM

I am able to import .mpeg files into PP CS5.  However, while my Source Monitor auto sizes the material correctly, the same material appears zoomed in on my Program Monitor.  I have selected "Fit" as the Program Monitor size.  How do I correct this?  Is it a result of my project preferences perhaps?  Thanks.

    General rule: It is better to downrez than it is up uprez.

     

    Using mixed footage, 720 and 1080 material is better used in a 720 sequence, where the 1080 material is downrezzed to 720, than it is to use a 1080 sequence and uprezzing the 720 material.

    Right click the clips, choose Scale to Frame Size.
