[QUOTE="ziphnor, post: 94900, member: 14215"] I have split my code such that the frame grabbing is part of the Core.dll. In addition there is an action and message for autocrop and for toggling autocrop. The autocropper itself has been placed among the process plugins. Difficult customer :) Well, i have decided to humor you and go for dynamic cropping as well even though it requires a lot more code ( ie keeping track of playback start end events etc). However its very hard to get dynamic cropping right. Many movies have pauses in subtitles as long as 30sec to several minutes, and if the dynamic cropping doesnt crop when the subtitles disappear it implies having a very long memory which agains means it will be extremely conservative about cropping. I might have to go back to a more complicated analyze method where i actually check for subtitles so that its very conservative if it can remember seeing subtitles and otherwise aggresive. I also had some success with making it aggressive (short memory) for the top boundary and conservative on the bottom boundary. [/QUOTE]
