 # blur a (rectangular) section of video
 Right click video track, select Insert Video Track
 Select your original video track, press u
 Press ctrl+c, click in the empty video track at the top and press ctrl+v
 Use this top track for bluring the section of the screen
 Press the Pan & Crop Icon
 Use the transport controls or enter the time to where the section is. The edit will likely apply to the whole video but you may have to seek to see it on screen.
 Press Mask
 Select the Rectangle select tool
 Zoom in if required
 Click and drag around the area to blur
 Click Video FX near the bottom or side of your current work area
 Scroll to All > Pixelate
 Drag (Default) to your top video track
 In the window that opens, choose Medium Horizontal from the Preset dropdown
 Adjust the Horizontal Pixelation to approx 85.0-95.0
 Adjust the Vertical Pixelation to approx 80.0-90.0
 Close the window
 Remember any edits like trimming and splitting should be done by selecting all tracks. Fading and moving can be done in unison if all tracks are selected. It may make more sense to edit the video first and then blur. If multiple sections need to be blurred out but at different locations, afaik it has to be done separately for each section.
