Re: [Freevo-users] how to configure 16:9 screen and crop tv recordings?

[Paul Sijben]

OK found it. The problem was that the detetection performed did not play well with the not-so-black bars in the recording. However giving a limit value to cropdetect does not always yield the desired result. So I am preparing a patch for video/plugins/mplayer.py that will yield the correct result.   On 24-01-10 11:52, Paul Sijben wrote: I am in the process of converting my freevo setup to new hardware and a new 16:9 screen (1360x768) I tried to set it up correctly but apparently I have forgotten something as recorded wide screen broadcasts now have black bars all around. So I turned on debugging and found this in the mplayer log: CommandLine: '-slave' '-v' '-vo' 'xv,sdl,x11,' '-ao' 'oss:/dev/dsp' '-autosync' '100' '-nolirc' '-nojoystick' '-autoq' '100' '-screenw' '1360' '-screenh' '768' '-fs' '-cache' '5000' '-monitoraspect' '16:9' '-af' 'volnorm=1' '-vf' 'pp=de,crop=720:576:0:0' '//home/freevo/tvrecordings/12-26_1430_Bridge_to_Terabithia.mpeg' so it is told of the screen size and aspect but then does not crop the video to the correct part. What should I do to have recorded TV cropped correctly?
