Default Help a newb with cropping


I want to make it so that the video only shows or plays a
certain section of the screen. I think it is called
cropping. For example, I taped a baseball game and didn't
want anyone to see the pitcher or outfield...can I
reajust it so only homeplate and the batter are shown? In
MS word you can do it with images. This isn't resizing it
it is kind of like moving the edges in so it doesn't show
part of the images or movie. Thanks

You can use the Pan/Zoom effects from Pixelan to zoom into an area of the
video.

MM2 doesn't support cropping. You would need to do it with other software
such as Virtual Dub.... working on the clip there and then using the cropped
clip in your MM2 project.

Both utilities are links on the Setup > Software page of my website.
