Avisynth: 4x3 aspect ratio with no borders?
 

Hi, just a little stupid question:
I have an anamorphic avi movie (640:288) and I want to cut the adages to make it 4:3 without borders.
Do I use “crop”?
How do I know how much to crop?
Can I use gripfit, and how exactly?

You can't use Gripfir for that. YOu have to do it by hand, using the crop command but the result will be awfull. I hate cropping.

BTW if you want to do that, you can use the "crop" feature of tmpgenc to find the correct pararemeters to put in the "Crop" line of your avs script (do not do the crop directly with tmpgenc, you will loose a lot of time).

Hi, canon,

Look at Questions 62 and 63.
Hmm, if you want to test and tweak you can dl from warpenterprises avisynth colection a resizer named SimpleResize and read the readme file about WarpedResize function of the filter.

Thanks guys,
That was very quick and very helpfull!!!

:D :D :D

Re: Newbie question: 4:3 aspect ratio with no borders
 

Well in case of Avisynth and therefore using FitCD or moviestacker you "only" have to activate "acurate cropping" and rise the height of "Resize" until it matches your output height, for example 576(PAL).
BUT! Beside the case that you'll loose movieinformation as DialHot said, you'll also receive less CQ cause of more active Moviepixels to encode.

Here you can see different methods of Letterboxing & Panscanning (as in your case you call it cropping):
