Croping several videos to put them side by side

Post by SoundRehabAustria »

I tried but somehow can't figure it out: How could I crop let's say 2 videos to display the central half of each video on each half of the screen, or 4 videos displaying the central quarter of each video (i.e. croping to keep same resolution, same height, but only display a fraction of the width) ???

Thanks in advance for suggestions and ideas.

There are a few different ways to do that, but the easiest is probably to use the Mask module. Check out the "LayersExamples" sample project. In the first tab, "Mask example", the video is masked with an Image module containing a circle image. But you can mask with anything you want.

For a quick rectangular mask, you can use a Polygon module, and Scale/Rotate/Translate it however you'd like.
