    I have captured some video and I would like to crop the screen, zooming in on part of the screen and save then crop to a different part of the screen and save. So I output different files cropped at different places.
    How would wise members go about this?
    Edit:
    Could I do it easier in Premiere?

    Peace

    I can't tell you how a wise person would do it, but I can tell you how I would:

    1) Go to Video | Filters and select the "null transform" filter
    2) Adjust the X and Y offsets until everything but the area you want is blacked out
    3) Set up any other filters, audio conversions, etc. (make sure the cropping is done first, so further video operations are only being done on the small area you're keeping)
    4) Save as file #1
    5) Repeat steps 1-3
    6) Save as file #2

    No idea if it's easier in Premiere, but given its size, you could probably do this all in Virtualdub while waiting for Premiere to load.

    Best,

    Calidore

    You can try my WindowCropper or KeyMotion VirtualDub plugin.
