Is there a way to zoom in on a video using VS7(its the SE DVD version), I cannot seem to find a way, or is there a way to do it in VS8 (I am planning to upgrade soon)

Gordon Fan,
To the best of my knowledge, the only thing you can zoom in on is an image and not video. That was one of the main reasons I upgraded to 8 was to get the pan and zoom feature.

MtCastle,
You can use the Cropping filter on either images or video the same as V8's pan and zoom. With Media Studio Pro you have 3 options: Cropping 2D filter, Moving path and new Pan&Zoom filter. Only problem is that I think the Cropping filter is only included in the Full versions not SE. I know VS7 Full has it, there was a tutorial at videohelp.com for creating the Ken Burns effect.
