Will do. Saw your review, and I gotta say thanks for the tip on cropping. That'll come in very useful since I'll have to crop a letterbox out of my next AMV (damn widescreen DVDs....)

I'll try to get to those 3 reviews I owe this thread today. But they may not be up until later this evening. One thing, Illia, could you give me the link to the vid info? It'll make it easier for me to leave your review.

http://www.animemusicvideos.org/members ... r_id=61993 sorry, when half asleep I have this odd tendency to omit certian things or become rather incoherent.

And good luck dealing with the letterbox. That is never fun to work around, especially if you are combining with with regular fullscreen footage.

An easy way is just creating a layer in Premiere that has the "black lines" at the top and bottom for letterbox and putting it down as the top layer. This will make all your footage the same size/resolution. Now of course, this will cut some of the footage out, but will make everything the same proportions. I can't say how much I hate seeing vids that go from letterbox -> fullscreen in a transition.

Nope, didn't forget. I just haven't been able to get on the computer for more than 10 minutes at a time because my brother has stuff to do for summer courses. But since he's going to be at a local gathering pretty much all day today for his class, your review should be up within the next hour or so ^_^

WOW, thanx for the wonderful review. :D :D

Oh and the one bad thing you mentioned, about the letterbox, i did crop it out, you can only tell though when you watch it at a size other than fullscreen, like 200% in windows media players classi skin. But i don't really care about that. Your review made me very happy.
