    Hello

    I am working on a video project where somedody transfered a film that was mis-framed. I see some of the bottom picture on the top. I want to cut some of the top and bottom of the picture and a bit on the sides. This leaves me with a nice framed image, but when played on a normal TV alot of the picture is lost in the overscan area. Is there a way I can put black around the 4 corners so i don;t loose any picture image when viewed on a TV set?

    Also when trimming the 4 sides, the video is no longer 720×480 is this something I need to fix when rendering?

    Thanks

    Try the event crop instead of the track crop. Hope this helps. Danny Hays

    I guess you could just mask out that area and let it be black instead of zooming in.
