For [livejournal.com profile] morgandawn, and any Mac vidders who are vidding with ripped DVD letterbox (16:9) source and iMovie:

If you are having trouble with aspect ratio on your clips, you can export the clips with black bars at the correct aspect ratio for iMovie by using the program [livejournal.com profile] morgandawn recommended a while back, MPEG Streamclip. What you need to do is choose the following settings:

Export to Quicktime-->
Compression: APPLE DV/DVCPRO - NTSC
Frame Size: Custom-->720 x 360
Cropping: click checkbox on-->set values as: Top = -60, Left = 0, Bottom = -60, Right = 0
Make Movie

DVDxDV does not have an equivalent setting. Hope it helps someone. :-)
