convert 4x3 sd video to 16x9 HD

[dsmarques]

Dear Sir,
I need to convert 4x3 SD video content to 16x9 with black pillar box 1920x1080 size.
I'm using the workflow that follows in attach.
The converted video is 16x9 but it is stretched with a small black pillar boxes on both size. I do not understand why is that happen.
Any tip regarding this issue will be appreciated.

Regards,
David

Hi,

Resize to 1440x1080 instead. Then insert a "Pad"-filter between "Resize"-filter and "XD-CAM HD"-encoder and set left and right to 240. This should do the trick.
