  RE: keeping original video dimensions?
  Your questioning gave me a clue to look at the movie settings... That was my intention. I suspect it now looks as good as it's going to get. Unless the aspect ratio of source and export are identical, then there are bound to be empy black

  RE: No Blu-ray 1080p23.97 or 720p23.976 in VPX6
  Hi Peter, What can I say?  They're the Blu-ray H.264 codec settings, not mine!   The stated bit rate is 25,000 to 40,000, but actually I get 42,000!  Maybe that's why so many people are having problems with burning Blu-rays. Also, when

  A lot of the questions we get here about MEP could be answered instead by studying or referring to the PDF Manual. But if like me you find it hard going in places, with few practical examples, then there's an independent book I've just started

  RE: How do I import several smaller mvp projects to make one large project

  RE: How do I import several smaller mvp projects to make one large project
  Hi Karen, John's suggested method is probably the quickest and simplest for most users' needs. But for more flexibility you might prefer the approach I take with my holiday videos. Which also sounds rather similar to what you've been trying to
