13 Video Features

While simple to learn, Vegas® software is a powerful application with many advanced features. This chapter covers some of the advanced video features of this powerful tool.

Cropping video

With the Event/Pan Crop window, you can resize media in a video event or selectively crop media without resizing. The Stretch to fill frame drop-down list allows you to resize the media to fill the output frame (when Yes is selected), or to crop out a portion of the media without resizing (when No is selected).

When keyframes are added, you can use this window to create scrolling, panning, or zooming effects. For more information, see Using keyframe animation on page 273.

Tip: If you apply plug-ins to a event with panning or cropping, you can choose whether to process the plug-ins before or after the panning or cropping. For more information, see Processing plug-ins on events with panning or cropping on page 245.
