Re: What's the aspect ratio of this?

So it's about 2.16:1

If you wanna know with the black bars, it's:

720 (pixels) / 480 (pixels) = 1.5

So it's 1.5:1.

On commercial DVDs, the aspect ratios you see on the covers are without the black bars, i.e 1.78:1 for 16:9 movies (16 / 9 = ~1.78).
So with the black bars, do I author as 4:3 or 16:9?
