Hello everybody

Is it possible in vegas 14 to save cropped part of a video as a separate file?

as you can see in the picture

<= my1920x1080 cropped video, this green area it's a part of the video which interests me to save but without black background

<= so this is how it should look like, full screen video without black borders

I know that will be smaller resolution and quality loss but I don't care

I hope I described it well what i mean he

Thanks in advance for any help

Eh.... I'm not understanding what it is you're wanting to achieve. Can you explain it another way - please.

Hmm it's hard to explain

This green it's my cropped video which I'd like to make a separate full screen video without black leftovers from cutted video

Because now I have small video (the green aera) let's say 640x480 on a 1920x1080 frame so I want to cut this small 640x480 from this black frame 1920x1080 and make this 640x480 a separate full screen video

So, are you wanting, what is called, for you, a single, inserted Video Wall?

Is the "black" to be transparent?

Crop the event & make sure "stretch to fill frame" is "yes" in the pan/crop window (under "source"). When you crop the event will still fill the full screen. If your project properties are the same height/width ratio as your pan/crop it will fill the preview window, then you can render out to your desired resolution.

Example: if you have 1920x1080 video & crop out a part at 720x480 & tell it to stretch to fill the frame, you can render that to a 720x480 video file & it won't loose any resolution, it will just be re-rendered & have some compression loss.

The black side bars will appear again when displaying on a 16:9 screen as long as rendered output is not 16:9.

OP did not aske for a 16:9 screen or video. His example "small video (the green aera) let's say 640x480" is 16x12 in square pixels. If he wants 16:9 he'll have to make a 16:9 crop.

 

 

Yes i knew it that it wouldn't be filled whole screen 16:9 video

640x480 I gave as a random example and my final output is unusual 1116x893 hehe then I don't think so I can make it 16:9 it would be unnatural stretched

so yes I have black side bars because I''m using16:9 screen but at least vertically it's a full screen video

That's the reason for mentioning that it make no sense to use unusual (non standard) resolutions when you will still have the black (side) bars on a 16:9 screen. I would crop the inside video with a 16:9 AR and render it just with a 1920x1080 rendertemplate.
