That's an excellent call. It does indeed look as you have
described. You'd think a lot more people would be running into this,
though, if that were the case. Hmmm.
In any case, though, can you think of a good way to hack it away? I
guess I could try to get rid of this by getting my X server to
overscan a bit, but I'd much rather do it on the encoding
side...after all, I'm not always playing back on a TV screen.
I think I see this too -- I just don't notice it most of the time
because I overscan my TV-out. If I view playback in a window I notice
it.
I think most people overscan at least a little. If I remember right,
standard televisions overscan by around 4%. I only do about 1%, and
only on the vertical for 4:3 content, so I do see some interesting
junk, but the 1% is enough to get rid of the closed captioning info.
