Sorry if this question is basic, or documented somewhere obvious, but I am stuck and would like a little help, please.

We need to create a cropped and (digitally) zoomed-in view of our pastor as a PiP in the corner of the slide he is currently referencing. Of course digital zoom is losing our camera's native resolution, but the physics of the situation don't let me avoid that.

I can try to do this in Vmix with either an overlay or one of the multi view templates, first creating a zoomed-in input and then using that zoomed-in as the PiP or part of a multi view. But then I find that the bounding box of the PiP rectangle is zoomed by whatever magnification I used in the original input, making a very oversized PiP box or lop-sided multi view layout.

I presume there is an easy way to make a two-up multi view or PiP with the live video portion zoomed and cropped as needed, while the still picture (slide) remains full size. Unfortunately, I can't find it on my own, so help would be appreciated, please.

Thanks in advance,

Charles.

I would choose multiview over an overlay for that situation. I have been caught by the same zoom issues. Don't magnify the source video of your Pastor. Rather, crop the Source video to frame your pastor, then shrink and position the cropped video.
