Question / Help Can you crop the inside of a source?

[PidgeyProwler]

So I’m streaming a DS game via WiiU Virtual Console, and when I put the Elgato source into OBS, there’s a lot of of black space both in and around it. I got rid of the black space on the perimeter easily by holding down the ALT key and dragging in, but now there’s a lot of black space in the middle. Is there any way to get rid of that? Thanks, any help is appreciated.

No, I don't think there is a simple built-in way for this. However, I think you could achieve this add an existing copy of the source (Add Existing; or copy the source and paste a Reference), alt-crop both sources in opposite directions, and then position them together.

Alright dude. Thanks a lot, I’ll be sure to try it out.

You can also create a simple black/white mask image and use the "Image Mask/Blend" filter on the source.

I wish I'd known about image masks sooner. Your comment made me look into it. Thank you!!!
