5ecb5cfafe7d4280b249229eb434a3fbQ: Auto zoom on speaker and presentation content
Hi there, I mainly have Zoom recordings for lessons that I teach online to my students. It includes videos with presentation content on the main screen and a small-PiP-speaker layout. Will Reap be able to create short clips of videos with the presentation content at the top half zoom automatically to the relevant parts of the lesson and the speaker's talking head at the bottom half? Will the talking head part be lower quality because of the source video? How will we get a better quality output for both the talking head and presentation content? Please confirm. Thank you.

Apr 18, 2026A: 1) Auto zoom on presentation + speaker (PiP layout)
Yes — this is supported in principle through our reframing + clipping workflows.
• Reap can detect active regions (slides / speaker) and generate clips
• You can structure outputs like:
• Top: presentation content (zoomed to relevant area)
• Bottom: speaker (talking head)
2) Talking head quality (PiP concern)
Yes — quality depends on the source video.
• If your speaker is a small PiP window in the original Zoom recording, enlarging it will:
• Reduce sharpness
• Introduce blur/pixelation
Reap does not currently “reconstruct” missing detail beyond the source resolution.
For better quality output having source video is higher quality is what you need.
