I don't know if this should be a request og bug report. I thought I had it fixed when I finally got ffdshow working with MP, but unfortunatly the crop function in ffdshow was not working correctly.
The problem is pretty clear, there is a reason tv's have overscan, on the edge of the image there is usually some "noise", or the image is not 100% centered. You don't see this on normal tv's cause normal tv's only show like 95% of the image. The problem on a computer however is that it shows everything. So you even get the noise on the edge of the image.
Thus you need a crop feature. You need the ability to define how many pixels on the end ov the image that should be removed. I guess some cards have this build in. Unfortunatly the hauppauge pvr series dont.
On normal TV it's not so bad, I only get an dark grey border of maybe 10-15 pixels on both sides of the picture. However when using the ext input on the card (for my STB) it gets worse, with flickering noise on the right side.
As I said earlier, ffdshow should be able to fix this, unfortunatly whatever zoom/crop function I try it cuts off a large chunk of the image on the right side, even with the lowest number of 8 pixels cut of, more than 100 pixels are gone. it's almost as it missinterpets the resolution of the video.
