ooops, I have bad news, Georg! I've just found out that zooming out is not always an easy task!
My project has multiple tracks and very keyframed zoom curves. I ended up using ffmpeg commands for converting my Acqua.mpg from PAL to NTSC: $ ffmpeg -i Acqua.mpg -s 600x480 -r 29.97 -sameq -padleft 60 -padright 60 AcquaNTSC.mpg where -i Acqua.mpg is the input file -s 600x480 set frame size * -r 29.97 set frame rate (frames per second) -sameq use same video quality as input avoiding compression -padleft 60 set left pad band size * -padright 60 set right pad band size * AcquaNTSC.mpg is the output file name * needed to fit a 1.25 aspect ratio video into a 720x480 frame. Output size: (600+60+60)x480 The punishment for my infidelity to Cin is an output file with noticeably lower quality (audio and video). Ciao!
