Makes no sense to me why someone would like to cut 25% from the picture. And what about programmes in 2.39:1 aspect ratio? Should those be cut too so that they fit to 4:3 ratio and lose 44% of the image in the process? Anyway, mplayer can do that, try something like "mplayer -vf crop=507:544,scale=720:544 http://<your_server>:37890". Although that will cut also programmes sent in 4:3 aspect ratio. -Petri _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
