| [APPLESCRIPT] Change QuickTime movie aspect ratio This is a script I've made to easily change the aspect ratio of a movie in QuickTime Player. It presents the user with a dialog box with common ratios, like 4:3 and 16:9, with an option for the user to enter any arbitrary ratio. I find this very useful for video podcasts from iTunes and movies downloaded from sites like YouTube. For some reason they often have the wrong aspect ratio, resulting in stretched (or smooshed) video. This script lets me fix it easily. The zip includes both .scpt and .app versions. Personally, I recommend enabling the Script Menu (which you can do from AppleScript Utility, located in /Applications/AppleScript/) and putting it in there. You can even set it up so it only appears in the menu when QuickTime Player is the frontmost application. This script has been tested with QuickTime 7 in Tiger and Leopard.
