Cropping videos in Windows Live Movie Maker


I want to crop (as in, take a subset of each frame, like when you crop a photo) a video in Windows Live Movie maker. Is there a way to do this, and failing that is there another free tool i can use to do that?



Answer



I've used Windows Live Movie Maker for a while, and am 99.99% sure that it doesn't provide the ability to crop frames in a movie.


VirtualDub (here) I've heard is a decent free video editor that can be used to crop videos (e.g. to remove those black bars and to rotate frames).


To crop a video in VirtualDub, open the video and then from the menu, select Video > Filters... > Add... > "null transform" > OK. Now select the "null transform" in the filter list and click "Cropping...". From this dialog you can drag the borders inwards to crop the video.
