Question: How to shift image?

[H0PE]

Hi,

I was fiddling with crop, addborders and I've trying to shift the ACTUAL MOVIE to the right -not by making just a border or change the movie size-.

I got a character in the middle of the movie I would like to shift it to the left side and make a black vertical border around it (so I will be left with a 60pixel wide movie scene like in the japanese anime movies "cutting-in" small parts of a screene... Hope I explained it correctly if not I try again).

Could you please help? /ohh boy I had to wait five days in order to make a new topic it was depressive I'm telling you. :)/

Crop() and AddBorders() is the right way to do it. Why weren't you successful with that?

First Crop() so that you have just the portion of the frame that you want. Then AddBorders() to restore the rest of the frame with the color you want.

My ShiftWrap (http://www.geocities.com/siwalters_uk/shiftwrap.html) plugin may help you centre the part of the image you want and then BorderControl (http://www.geocities.com/siwalters_uk/bdrcntrl.html) could make the borders.

If your frame is:
+--------------+
| o o |
| /|\ /|\ |
| / \ / \ |
+--------------+
do you want your result to be:
+--------------+
| o XXX o |
|/|\XXX /|\ |
|/ \XXX / \ |
+--------------+
or
+--------------+
| o o XXX|
|/|\ /|\ XXX|
|/ \ / \ XXX|
+--------------+
? Also you say you want to shift the movie right but a character left, which is even more confusing.

Sorry - I hadn't realised that I hadn't ported ShiftWrap to Avisynth.

But it works fine in VirtualDub :)

I use shiftwrap in Vdub a lot and it is excellent. Is there a version for Avisynth anywhere? I'd like to do all my filtering in Avisynth so that I can use fast recompress in Vdub and avoid colour space changes.
Thanks.
