davinci resolve studio 15 desqueeze anamorphic

So, good Redditors, how do I desqueeze by 1.6x and how do I configure my timeline?Īppreciate I'm using 17.4 which appears to be newer than the video above from last year and the menu system has changed a little conferring there may be some change in process. In Sony Vegas it's a quick update to the project settings to set the resolution (6144 x 2160) and then edit the clip resolution in the timeline, turning off maintain aspect ratio and enabling stretch to fill frame - but I'm looking to move away from my aging copy of Vegas to something a little more current (especially as I'm very limited on my rendering options in vegas, mostly ballooning my output of about a minute of test footage to almost 60gb! - original clip is 1.85gb)Įxample of following guide for different result:

I tried 1.5x (figured it was close enough for testing) and went to Project Settings > Master Settings > Timeline Resolution and inputted 6144 x 2160 (which is the original 4k footage multiplied out, 3840 * 1.6 = 6144) but my Timeline preview doesn't update (black bars top and sides) and when I got back to the settings it's reset back to Ultra HD (3840 x 2160), like clicking 'Save' did nothing. While this workaround seems to be working fine - I would expect that the goal would be to have clips created as proxies from the project window to carry the 'cinemascope' metadata across.New to Davinci Resolve, I'm looking to desqueeze my 1.6x Anamorphic video and have a bit of a headscratch.Ī quick google suggested I rightclick the clip in my timeline, go to 'clip attributes' and change the 'Pixel Aspect Ratio' but these guides were for 1.3x Anamorphic that is an option in the list, however 1.6x does not seem to be. My work around has been to place all online clips on a 2.4:1 timeline and render out proxy files in the adjusted aspect ratio, rather than creating from the project window - for example rendering 1920x800 proxy files, to be attached as proxy files to my 3600x3000 anamorphic clips. Essentially the metadata that tells the online footage that the clips are 'cinemascope' and converts the footage 2:1 doesn't seem to flow through to the proxies. When created using the 'make proxy' workflow, they render as square files, and appear square (squished) in timeline when proxy clips are enabled. I've been testing creating proxy files for 2:1 anamorphic clips.
