Crop black borders of TV Show - possbile?
I like to crop the black borders of a recorded TV Show. I transcode with VLC and X264 but found until now NO working solution
Like in handbrake possible, I like to maintan the aspect ratio and the original size. My video is a MPEG with a width: 720 and a height of 576 pixel. I like to get a H.264 encoded MP4 with no black borders in the same size. I encode in the terminal, so a working parameter would be great. |

Maintaining 720x576 size might usefull if you're gonna transcode to DVD or want to keep the highest possible framesize in the final product, otherwise the image is either 4:3 or 16:9 DAR, so resizing is gonna be done eventually at pre or post-processing.
It your using DAR flags for proper AR decoding, than it doesn't really matter if the image is not 720 pixels width. Just be sure to use mod16 resolutions for better compression.

x264 doesn't do processing, just encoding. You'll need other tools to crop those pixels, I would recommend AviSynth, which x264 accepts as input (file.avs).
Being AviSynth a script-based frameserver, it would allow you to do on-the-fly processing without the need for an intermediary AVI file (saving both time and HDD space).
