I have to cut out a part of a video, crop it and blackout two parts.
I do this with:
      ffmpeg -y                                      \
             -ss 00:19:49                            \
             -i  2021-03-25ToastmastersClubAvond.mp4 \
             -to 442                                 \
             -vf "
                  crop = 1440:1080:240:0
                  ,
                  drawbox=enable='between(t, 0, 2)'     :
                     color     = black                  :
                     w         = in_w                   :
                     h         = in_h                   :
                     thickness = fill
                  ,
                  drawbox=enable='between(t, 339, 342)' :
                     color     = black                  :
                     w         = in_w                   :
                     h         = in_h                   :
                     thickness = fill
             "                                       \
             -acodec copy                            \
             -vcodec libx264                         \
             -crf    23                              \
             speechClean2.mp4

The reason I do -to in the output is that in this way the metadata
concerning the video length is less out of whack.

I was wondering if this is a good way, or that it could be done
better?
Also, beside the timestamps the parameters for drawbox are the same.
Is there a way that I do not have to repeat them?
drawbox=enable='bitor(between(t, 0, 2),between(t, 339, 342))'
Works like a charm.

Strange thing is that it seems to be much faster. About 20%. To much
to be because of different load I think.
But I am not complaining. ;-)

If you want to cover the whole frame size, you could also use this (for 50% gray):
eq=enable='bitor(between(t, 0, 2),between(t, 339, 342))':contrast=0
or add :brightness=-0.5 if you want black.
It might be faster than drawbox.
