This is a thread with two mixed topics. They include wrong aspect ratio on files with a timewarp effect.

So if I put a 23.97fps file into a 24fps project and set it to 100% in Motion Effect Editor, the aspect ratio gets warped. Or if I put a motion effect, say 200% on a clip, the same happens. In both Source/Record.

Help?

When I open the MXF with Telestream Switch, it looks ok btw

Ok, I updated MC to 2018.2 and the issue is gone. Strange.

Solved

It´s back - when I put a motion effect on a clip. Anyone else has this? Any ideas?

Is this in the source monitor or just in the timeline? Have you tried refreshing the aspect ratio/reformatting setting in the refresh sequence menu?

Hi Andi, it´s on both sides including HDMI output via decklink. Refreshing doesn´t change anything :(

Hello! Same problem here. Any way to solve it?

I have an editor who is on version 8.9.3 and has the same issue.

We are on version 8.8.3 and have no issue with the same material, same project, same settings etc.

It would seem then that it is something to do with the version of the media composer.

Can anyone confirm if they have or do not have thisw issue?  And what version they are on?

I’ve added this thread to the support case. Thanks for adding the version info, that is valuable intel.

I´m on 2018.2 btw. I found something else: Clips in DNxHD 36 aren´t affected, only DNxHD 80. In the bin column Image Framing, the 80s are marked 'source cropped', the 36s lack an entry.

So as a workaround transcode into DNxHD 120 for example, doesn´t seem to be affected as well as 36.

This thread suggests that DNxHD 80/85 is full raster in 1080P 24/25 projects.  SO that cannot explain the issue here, correct?

Well, it all seems to center around DNxHD80/85/100, which is why I've added this thread to that case.
