I have a Sharp HD TV and have always been impressed by the smart stretch. I've historically just edited my video in 4:3, but I'm shooting more in 16:9 now, so I need some way to make the conversion look nice and I think you've got the answer here. Thanks again for taking the time to post and share it. Alan Eugenia — Thanks so much for this guide. I have a Sharp HD TV and have always been impressed by the smart stretch.

Although, it seems that I AM the first one who has such a tutorial online. All NLE presets for 16:9 transformations are ALL cropping. At least I did sit my ass down and figured it out on how to do it with an NLE, and wrote a tutorial for it. Even if someone knew about it, it's not clear immediately how to do it on an NLE. For the work you see above, I do take credit. So, if you don't have any constructive and on topic to say, don't say anything. The idea, and possibly a patent, belongs to Sharp. The tutorial and its result, belongs to me. I didn’t invent the idea of it, smart ass. Although, it seems that I AM the first one who has such a tutorial online.

Did you not see my smiley ;-D ? Don't try to claim something you didn't invent, even if it's implied by accident. I myself call it "mikesum32 is smart alec stretching".

The eugenia/sharp is for clarification as to which one is which. Get a clue. The technique is called “smart stretch”. The eugenia/sharp is for clarification as to which one is which. Get a clue.

Pride comes before the fall ;-D I do think I've seen it before. So now it’s the Eugenia/Sharp technique ? Pride comes before the fall ;-D I do think I’ve seen it before.

I have not yet had a chance to implement your suggestions but I assume they will work. I hope you have enjoyable holidays.
