Adjusting the Stabilize Behavior’s Track Region

When stabilizing a clip, you can use the Track Region parameter to define an area to be
analyzed (isolating the stabilization to a limited area of the analyzed source). During
analysis, the area outside the region is ignored. Use this option for faster processing of a
clip.
