I am after some advice to a crop and resize question
source material is DVB stream of a movie that was produced in 4:3 aspect, the stream has been broadcast in 16:9 so I have the black borders on the left and right of the picture.
My goal is to remove the borders then resized it to a resolution of 720x576 with no borders.
Here is a script that does what I want, it works but is obviously not optimal, more like a backyard hack

but it should demonstrate what I am attempting.
Mpeg2Source("D:\video\sample.d2v")
BicubicResize(720, 576, 0, 0.6, 0, 0, 720, 576)
Crop(88, 0,-88, 0)
BicubicResize(688, 574, 0, 0.6, 0, 0, 544, 576)
AddBorders(16, 1, 16, 1)
I am open to all suggestions as to the proper way to do this as I am sure this is not it
