cropping a avi

[aanfield]

I would use virtualdub for this. Keep in mind though that I think you will have to re-encode.

Open virtualdub, then open your AVI file by going to File > Open Video File:



Go to Video > Filters:



Click the Add Button:



Scroll down and select the Null Transform filter and click OK:




Click the Cropping button:



Increase the X1, Y1, X2 and Y2 offsets to suit:





When satisfied, click OK, and OK again:



Go to Video > Compression:



Choose a Video Codec:



Go to File > Save As AVI:



All done !

Well, if the truth be told, you wait for it to come out on DVD and buy it then
