Crop small parts of the video

[Momo Detouba]

“Linear wipe” you guys know there was a line while moving/changing the video, but any possible to put the color on the line? If not got any other software that can do this? Thank you so much for your guys reply..

I believe I already said this. Boris Continuum Complete has a BCC Linear Wipe that allows for a colored line.

[Steve Rhoden] “Vegas does have Linear Wipe but it’s under Transitions!”

Yes, but it doesn’t have any way to add a colored line at the edge like Push does which is why Andrew recommended the Push but it’s a completely different look.

But John, if you uncheck the “Push off previous image” checkbox in the “Push” transition, it really becomes a wipe. The new oncoming picture/video wipes over the old picture/video. At the leading edge of the “push” or “wipe” is a line whose color can be changed, along with the width and edge type (clear crisp line or feathered line edge – which gives the line a blurred look).

Momo, have you tried playing with the “Push” transition? Don’t get caught up in the name, just try it.

Linear wipe and push doesn’t same… I tested both of them and I prefer linear more but I don’t think there’s away to change the line while changing the video..

But hey guys, I wanna ask one more question about the full screen x and y numbers.

Check this out,

And what I’ve done,

I wanna ask you guys the full size screen x and y because as you can see what I did the screen was not arrange very well. Left’s screen too thin and right’s one too big.
Is there any way for me to arrange that? I could use the x and y and split the screen into three parts.(by using the number x and y)

Where to find a good position to fit three half screen very well and arranged beautifully?

Hope you guys can understand this..

After carefully reviewing the difference between the Sony Vegas Transitions Linear Wipe and Push, I do see a slight difference. You CAN get what you want with Vegas (a linear wipe with a colored vertical bar in your choice of color and width, delineating the two video events), but you need to add in one additional track above the track with the two pictures that are being transitioned. This additional track if just a Generated Media Solid Color, that has been modified in size by using Track Motion to create the vertical “bar”. I have included two sample picture files, “VidOrPic1” and “VidOrPic2” along with a quickie Vegas 10 Pro file showing how to accomplish the linear wipe with a vertical bar (color and width your choice). Hope this helps you.

2 media files used in Vegas file below:

9479_vidorpic2.jpg.zip

Vegas Pro 10 file:
9480_pic2wipespic1offver2.veg.zip

As far as the split or tri screen layout, you are on the right track with working with the x and y values for each piece of media. As an example, if you are making a video that’s NTSC DV Widescreen (720 x 480), each picture or video event should be made 1/3 of 720 pixels in width (720 / 3 = 240). I believe you will have to crop each of the three images to get events that are then 240 wide by 480 pixels tall. If you keep the aspect ratio, when you crop a video event to 240 wide, it will also crop the height to (480 / 3 = 160), which I believe you do not want. It will take some playing around with the cropping of the video events, then organizing and sizing them using Track Motion to get what you want, but it CAN be done.

Only with Vegas 10 can do this?

I only got Vegas 11, can Vegas 11 do this? I can’t open the file..

By the way the 3 split screen I need to move track motion’s x and y or Event Pan/Crop’s x and y? I’m confuse

[Andrew Lenczycki]

Vegas is backwards compatible, meaning you should be able to open any previous version of Vegas (i.e. your Vegas 11 should open a Vegas 10 file). It’s not forward compatible, meaning you couldn’t open a Vegas 11 file with Vegas 10.

I just open it and thank you so much it works!!

And can you show me the sample of 3 split screen in 1600 x 900 ones?
