    I can use the overscan setting of the TV but this loses image quality plus you can't finely tune by how many pixels you want to overscan.
    The ideal solution (because cropping is only available on live TV and not on recorded)
    hi el Filou
    maybe just try the madvr zoom options. they are very good for such things like that. works everywhere if enabled and it does not matter if it's with tv, videos or something else...
    or did ya mean something completely different?:p

    I mean this: RTL_SD_line1_rubbish.png It cannot be automatically detected because it's not really a black bar, it's encoded data included in the image and it's downscaled from HD so it's a bit messy.
    Thanks for the madVR 'clean image borders' idea, I guess I'll enable that manually when I need it. I wish I could do that from MP because it's needed only on some rare programmes on some channels. Normal black borders I don't mind but this is distracting.

    Hi :)
    @el Filou i have try to implement the zoom part of madVR but was totally messed up with MP current code, it wasn't working, so it's surely doable but will take a lot of time i fear :( and in final not sure if i will succeed :(

    Those white markings even have a name but I forgot it too^^ but it will be detected with cleanup cropping, no worries.
    bb detection tick is just needed to enable the madvr zoom function... and also easy to automate it with a profile or shortcut ;)
    so in ya case may use sth like: if (srcHeight = 576) "cleancropp" for this tv crap 576 material.

    Sadly, since putting on v454 there have been 3 issues:

    - BSOD during playback
    - MP freeze
    - MP sometimes doesn't show guide properly after stop, guide is blank.

    It's really strange, could the change between 451 - 454 make such a difference? With 1 whole week of extensive usage with 450/1 without issues, I'd have to say it has. Unfortunately TV is not in my control but I will get some logs soon. Should I try the FCU workaround checkbox?
