custom crop and aspect (how to remove standards)

Postby rocket777 » 04 Aug 2020 22:18

I've found the custom cropping and aspect ratio setups, but these only add new ones. I want to reduce the list in both, since there are some, like 2.21:1 which I never use.

Is there a way to do that?

Also, there's a http request, ?command=aspectratio&val=<newratio> with status.xml, but I cannot find an equivalent one for setting the crop ratio. Is there one?

I often need to try a cross product of all the aspect ratios * crop ratios to get my video to play filling all as I want. Currently I have to use the 'a' and 'c' commands (number of crops) x (number of aspects) to try them all. If I could reduce the list - or - use the http to set the specific ones I want, I could reduce the number of tries I need to find the right one.

Any ideas?
