Can I ask for a little more clarification on the topic of auto aspect ratio cropping? I had a similar experienceas one of the previous users where I assigned groups AFTER the students recorded, and the export video auto cropped the individual videos. I'm trying to fix this on our next attempt and want to make sure I'm understanding this. My main question is: does it matter how many parts I assign in the groups? In other words, if I assign 4 parts in the initial project creation, do I need to be sure that each group has all 4 parts or can there be groups of 2 or 3? Will these smaller groups yield cropped videos because of the export aspect ratio? Thanks in advance!

Of course, thank you for asking.
Mega-export cropping is based on the number of videos included in the export. Because of this, you do not need to necessarily have the full 4 parts recorded in each group.
However: usually mega-export will tend to crop to an aspect ratio that is similar or very close to the original aspect, but there are certain ratios of numbers of parts:target resolutions that will result in a cropping that is noticeably deviant from the original.
This is because CL prioritizes maintaining resolution quality of recorded videos over maintaining aspect ratio of recorded videos. If users are interested, we would be able to develop a more involved project creation process that would be able to maintain resolution AND aspect ratio of recorded videos, but would be at the expense of the program's current simplicity. Otherwise (and certainly for the time being), musicians should plan on using the center portions of their screens to avoid being cut on mega export.

I am here to post an update:
Mega Export will now no longer crop videos. Videos will appear in the Mega Export exactly as they appear in-app.
