down the [Shift] key, then click the video window display area. This opens a dialog box that

the edges of a video image or if you just want to see part of your video window display. You
can also hold down the [Ctrl] key, then drag in the video window to crop. To restore cropping
settings, right-click the video window, then click the

Note: In a video window with no cropping, the edges of video images may appear
distorted. You normally don’t see this distortion on a TV because most TVs crop the edges
of video images. Professional video equipment doesn’t produce this distortion but
consumer-quality video equipment may. You can use the cropping feature of PC-VCR
Remote to hide this distortion.
