I don’t think this is a bug, it’s more a problem of functionality I can’t find the solution to.
About 20 years ago I made a couple of short films with a 480i DV NTSC camera, but with an add-on anamorphic lens that squeezed a 16x9 image into the 3x4 frame. The problem was, the metadata of the QT files still said it was a 3X4 image. When I cut the films in FCP, I could change that data for the source files and output a file that played back in 16x9. But now I want to take those original source QT and uprez/deinterlace them to 1080p. And Topaz video insists on reading the originals as 3x4, not 16x9. there must be a way to address this but I can’t find it.
What’s weirder, the edited standard definition short films, which I previously uprezed semi-successfully in an earlier version of Topaz Video, now read as 3x4 to the current version. Where before they uprezed to 16x9 without an issue.
Help!
