Using the Crop Box
Using
the more complete resize settings in Resize, or the Resize nodes in Batch, you
have a dynamic preview from which to view results while setting
the resize settings.
In the first procedure,
extract a 4:3 cutout from a 16:9 clip. In the second procedure,
extract a custom cutout from a source clip.
To extract a 4:3 cutout from a 16:9 clip:
- Access
the Resize module for a 16:9 clip on the Desktop, in Batch, or
from soft effects if you are working on the timeline.
- Click the Source button next to the Clip
label to make the crop box the same size as the source frame.
- Make sure Regen is enabled to get dynamic
visual feedback of the result clip in the viewport on the right.
See
Getting Dynamic Feedback in Result View.
- From the Resolution Presets box, select
the 4:3 resolution to which you want to resize the source.
- Make sure Keep Aspect is enabled.
- From the Fit Method box, select Crop
Edges.
- Depending on the source and destination
resolutions, select a scan mode from the Scan Mode box.
- Process the result.
