Somebody knows why I have always a green line under the picture in VLC, even in full screen ?
Thanks.

are you using the latest version?
OpenGL video output?
What kind of files? mpg? avi? mov?
Have you tried different output settings?

VLC Version : 0.8.2.
I don't know if it's OpenGL output (and I don't know what it means)
The files are mpeg 2. 1280X720 pix.
There is hundreds of settings incomprehensible.
I tried VLC because Windows Media Player could not play these files.

A detail :
I have not this green line under my mpeg2 captures from my FX1 Sony (1440X1080 interlaced). Only with these captures converted in 1280X720.

MPEG allows you to have a smaller 'visible' output then the actual 'decoded' output. Basically applications should do automatic cropping on these files. VLC currently cannot do this.

Among the hundreds of settings that I don't understand, is their one that can change the colour of the green line in black ?
And why does the deinterlace (blend or others) does'nt work with my files converted in 720X1280 (in Ulead Mediastudio pro), and it works with the captures in 1080X1440i (1920) ?
Thanks.

though vlc does not current offer this more intelligent type of automatic cropping there are a couple of manual solutions..
perhaps autocrop will cut enough of the line away(the unwanted green must be very small)?
to add on the commandline it would be:
maybe you want to do full cropping and use this commandline switch:
Here's a commandline example where a video is 186 x 130.. there is a green line on the right side of the screen and a larger strip across the bottom that is blurry.. here's the solution:
Code: Select all
vlc.exe --vout-filter crop --crop-geometry "180 x 120 + 0 + 0"
(this makes the vid width = 180, and the height = 120, and starts the crop at pixel coordinate 0, 0 which is x then y)
You can accomplish the same thing from the GUI.. in the crop geometry box you would type ->
180 x 120 + 0 + 0

can someone please help me, i dont get a result to do this:

thx

--autocrop is for automatcially cropping black bars/borders and is a prat of the vout cropping filter. Instead you want to enable the crop filter, so e.g.:
Code: Select all
vlc --vout-filter crop --croppadd-croptop 55 --croppadd-cropbottom 55 --croppadd-cropleft 10 --croppadd-cropright 10 INPUT
Where INPUT is you input (so %1). You can use "=" instead of spaces too if you prefer.
In theory that should work however doesn't appear too
. Might be a bug.
If you want to just autocrop:
Code: Select all
vlc --vout-filter crop --autocrop INPUT
There are more options (for setting e.g. max ratio etc.):
Code: Select all
Crop video filter
--crop-geometry <string> Crop geometry (pixels)
Set the geometry of the zone to crop. This is set as <width> x
<height> + <left offset> + <top offset>.
--autocrop, --no-autocrop Automatic cropping (default disabled)
Automatically detect black borders and crop them. (default disabled)
--autocrop-ratio-max <integer [0 .. 15000]>
Ratio max (x 1000)
Maximum image ratio. The crop plugin will never automatically crop to
a higher ratio (ie, to a more "flat" image). The value is x1000: 1333
means 4/3.
--crop-ratio <integer [0 .. 15000]>
Manual ratio
Force a ratio (0 for automatic). Value is x1000: 1333 means 4/3.
--autocrop-time <integer> Number of images for change
The number of consecutive images with the same detected ratio
(different from the previously detected ratio) to consider that ratio
chnged and trigger recrop.
--autocrop-diff <integer> Number of lines for change
The minimum difference in the number of detected black lines to
consider that ratio changed and trigger recrop.
--autocrop-non-black-pixels <integer>
Number of non black pixels
The maximum of non-black pixels in a line to consider that the line
is black.
--autocrop-skip-percent <integer [0 .. 100]>
Skip percentage (%)
Percentage of the line to consider while checking for black lines.
This allows to skip logos in black borders and crop them anyway.
--autocrop-luminance-threshold <integer [0 .. 128]>
Luminance threshold
Maximum luminance to consider a pixel as black (0-255).
Also, as zcot said above, if you want to crop a specific region do:
Code: Select all
vlc --vout-filter crop --crop-geometry WxH+L+T
Where W = width, H = height, L = pixel shift from left, T = pixel shift from top.
The two latter commandlines work correctly.

Okay thanks for your suggestions.
ill check it out later.
whit this command i can firstly work: --crop=16:9 --aspect-ratio=16:9
that fits my MPEG2 records to nearly fullscreen.

This option doesn't work:
--vour-filter crop --crop-geometry

What parameters you set to crop-geometry?

Please use some logic and read what you are typing rather than blind cut and paste .. it's obviously a typo and --vour-filter crop should have been --vout-filter...
