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.
"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.
