Resizing video inside project

degradation wrote on 7/15/2003, 3:39 PM

Is there any way to resize the video, so it'll render with borders around it? For example, you have a video that's 352x240 but you want to be 320x218 inside the 352x240.

Open up the Pan/Crop window for the clip and drag the dashed cropping line out larger than the frame.

How do I know that when it renders, the video would be exactly 320x218 inside 352x240?

Does anybody know an easier way, like in Tmpgenc?

Maybe try Track Motion instead. It works sort of the opposite way from Pan/Crop, but it lets you enter a specific size for the image.

"352x240 but you want to be 320x218 inside the 352x240. "

Possible route: import 352 x 240 video to Vegas timeline -> Make sure fill frame/screen is turned off -> set project to ~ 32 pix larger (ie, 384 x 272) -> render to your target of 352 x 240.

Personally like to do resample at same step as encoding -> all sorts of theoretical reasons, but what's important is the final result seems a bit better.
