Using Adobe Premiere Elements 12

Shot film at 16:9 but when loaded to "Project Assets" showed up as 4:3.  Is there a way to convert it back to 16:9 on the time line.

Thanks,

Gil

    I went into the "Help" menu and it explains it all in the "Interpret Footage file: Use 1.2 pixel aspect ratio if your source clip has a 720 x 480 frame size. This setting lets you maintain a 16:9 frame aspect ratio.

    [On Edit:  Glad you got it resolved so quickly]

    You offered so little information that it is impossible to guess.

    Computer?

    Shot film?

    Camera?

    Source of video?

    Project settings?

    Import procedures?

    Screen shots?
