Outputting Clips With a Letterbox Overlay
 
 
 

When you load clips on the EditDesk into the Player, you can enable a letterbox overlay using the Player View options. This letterbox view option is saved with the clip. You can output the clip with the same letterbox setting. You can also add a letterbox on output.

To output clips with a letterbox overlay:

  1. In the Output Clip menu, click the Deliverables tab to see the Letterbox controls.
