Control QuickTime like Final Cut Pro
Authored by: Anonymous on Aug 02, '08 07:20:10PM

There's a way to force different aspect-ratios in Quicktime (Pro?) - open a video, press cmd+j (or Window > Show Movie Properties). Then select the video track, and "visual settings", and uncheck "preserve aspect ratio" and enter a new display size..

..okay it's not quite as simple as "VLC's Video > Aspect Ratio > 16:9", but it's.. possible (There are also lots of interesting things you can do in the video properties window, like extracting audio tracks, boosting volume, flipping video and such)

"Not quite as simple" is right. The VLC method is resolution-independent and allows me to quickly resize the playback window but maintain the same aspect ratio.
