Determining the visible TV frame size
To determine the picture properties of your television as well as optimal image size
editor settings, you should perform a test run:
• Load the project "Visible TV image" from the folder "My Media -> Projects ->
Visible TV image" in the Media Pool.
• Play back the film and read the instructions on the video screen.
• Burn the project to DVD
• Place the disc into the player and play the film. Compare the TV picture to the
picture displayed on your video screen by MAGIX Video Pro X5.
• Determine the proportional value of the borders cropped by the television with
the four measurement scales along the edges of the test picture.
• Enter the values in the "Full TV size" editor.
The image size is now optimized to your TV picture. Please note: Depending on
device settings and disc media type, the cropping values may vary slightly.
