How To Clip a Video?

Post by dblml320 »

Hello,

I have some video in 4x3 format, with bars top and bottom to give the illusion of 16x9. I would like to clip out a 4x3 section from the middle of the frame for the entire clip. Is this possible in VS9?

Use the 'Cropping' Video Filter.

Hi Ken,

OK I tried the cropping video, and it does some of what I need. It crops the video. But then I want to zoom up the part that isnt cropped so the cropped part fills the frame edge to edge. I played a bit with the distort video feature thinking it may give me the zoom, but could not figure out how to get it to fill the whole frame. Is there a way to do that?

When you use the crop filter there is a small check box.
Uncheck the box and it will crop and 'stretch'
