Is it possible to crop a video file like you do a photo.  sometimes when I capture video I get more than what I want and would like to cut off the edges that I don't want and leave the video segment that I want.  If this is possible can you explain how to do it?

Thanks
Dallas

You could use the Pan & Zoom Editor to zoom in until you only have what you want. To get to the editor right click on the video, then select Edit/Pan & Zoom Editor from the drop down menu. You will have to play around with this feature until you become familiar with it. Basically you set the initial frame and then set the final frame size. When playing the video will be "copped" to the frame you have selected.

You're welcome. It takes a while to get the hang of it especially if you do the advanced option.
