How to crop a video and save it?
Posted: 29 May 2022 17:42
Can anyone help me save a cropped video - using VLC 3.0.17.3 on macOS Monterey 12.4 on classic Intel chip, MacBook Pro 2020. I am following instructions like this:
Step 1: Launch VLC on Mac computer and head to "File" > "Open File";
Step 2: At the top of the menu bar, click on "Window" > "Video Effects..." > "Crop";
Step 3: Set Top, Bottom, Left and Right in pixels;
Step 4: Close the pop-up window when you set the cropping values. Then go to "VLC" > "Preferences";
Step 5: Directly press on the "Show All" button and go for "Video" > "Filters" > "Croppadd" to similarly set cropping values for top/bottom/left/right;
Step 6: Go to "Video" > "Filters" > "Video Cropping Filter" > "Save" to apply all cropping operations to your target video
Step 7: Find "Media" > "Convert/Save" in the main menu bar and click on "Add" to choose your video. Then go for "Convert/Save" > "Convert" and "Edit" > "Video Codec" > "Filter" > "Video Cropping Filter". Simply choose where your file to save as and click "Start".
Everything goes fine until Step 7 where there is no Convert/Save option anywhere and the Convert/Stream option there is does not have any option to add filters to the saved video. Looks like a bug, or is there something I am missing?
Thanks in advance for your help.
