how to zoom in a rush using a bigger rush size ?
Hey,
I do not know the name of the thnig I want cause I’m not english speaker.
I got some gopro rushs in 4k (from a friend) it’s drone vid.
The drone was a bit to far so i was thinking adding this rush in a big project (with other rushs) in 1080p.
Maybe I could add the 4k rush without being resized by vegas ?
vegas could crop it in 1080 so it’s like a zoom ?Someone understand me ?
How can we make that happen ?
Thanks !

If your project settings are 1080p, when you drop the 4K footage on the timeline Vegas will auto scale the footage to 1080.
Use the Pan Crop tool on the clip, or a separate track and use track motion, to crop in on the 4k footage and re-frame the to your taste. You can use the resolution numbers on the side to enter in exact frame size, in your case 1920×1080. You can also key frame the crop to stabilize, resize, or maintain the visual focus on a subject. Using the GRID overlay on the preview, you can set key frames every 10 frames or 1 sec intervals to maintain a rough lock on a subject.

Be careful! You do not use Track Motion for zooming. Track Motion works at the project resolution so if you zoom your 4K footage with Track Motion, Vegas Pro will first convert the 4K frame to 1080 HD and then scale the 1080. This is NOT what you want.
Always zoom using Pan/Crop. Pan/Crop will preserve the 4K media as it zooms in using the full resolution and then converting to 1080 HD only at the end, which is what you want to happen.

Good to know. I guess I always used Track motion scaling down for PiP type things, and never noticed this before.

Yes, Track Motion is perfect for scaling down and making PIPs. You just don’t want to scale up with it.

Under Positon: change Largeur to 1920 and Hauteur to 1080, and you will get a perfect HD 1920×1080 crop/zoom. This is how far you can zoom in without loosing any quality.
