CLIPSTER Edit Tool User Guide
with the video format of the clips in the timeline, and their output for
the clip to be rendered must be seen in relation to the selected video
format of the new clip:
– With the combo box Auto scale set to Fit and the Original
aspect ratio combo box activated, the clips of the timeline will be
scaled to their maximum allowable width or height so that no infor-
mation gets lost. If the aspect ratio is different, you will receive
black bars in the finalized images.
– With this combo box set to Crop and the Original aspect ratio
combo box activated, the images will be scaled to their maximum
allowable width or height so that you receive a full image at the
output. If the aspect ration is different, parts of the images may be
cropped.
–With the Auto scale setting set to Off, the material will maintain
its original size.
– With the combo box Auto scale set to Fit or Crop and the Orig-
inal aspect ratio check box deactivated, the aspect ratio (the rela-
tion of width (x) and height (y) of the video format) will not be
preserved. The resulting images will be stretched or compressed if
the aspect ratio is different and you will always receive a full image
at the output.
