Help me, f'list kenobi! You're my only hope!

Okay. So I'm trying to do a vid. And it's giving me problems.


My problem is as follows:

- BtVS seasons 1 to 3 are in 4:3 aspect ratio.
- BtVS seasons 4 to 7 are in widescreen (16:9 aspect ratio).

Now, I've figured out that, in iMovie, I can have the widescreen bits automatically change to crop the sides off and be in 4:3 - or, on the other hand, I can have the 4:3 bits crop the top and bottom off so that they're in widescreen. All well and good. But not actually what I want to do here.


What I want is to have letterbox format on the bits that are in the wrong ratio.

Apparently I can do this in Streamclip? Right?
...but I have no idea how.


Help!

f, on the other hand, you ARE planning something special to do with the different ratios

Of course I am. You don't think I'd come up with something elaborate and tricky for no reason, do you?

Well, you might :-p

It's entirely possible that you have gone completely stark, raving mad and lost all sense of good taste since the last time we saw you :-p
