How to crop video but not zoom?

I am trying to place a small section of a video ontop of another full sized video. When I select the video and hit tools -> Crop/Zoom/Pan, I am able to crop the video how I want it, however it zooms in to fill up the entire screen. I want to keep the cropped portion the same size to play over the top of the video below it.

How does one do this?

I have tried resizing it back down after the crop/zoom, but it loses a massive amount of picture quality.

Thanks!

Simply apply a rectangular mask to the clip from the Mask Designer. You can crop it to any size or aspect ratio without affecting the rest of the clip in any way.
