What are the rules for cropping & downsizing ?

I'm encoding the extras of Band of Brothers which always have tons of black space.
I used Dr DivX to preview and test the autocrop facility... which gave a preference for 6-Left & 4-Right... and the encode worked fine.

I thought 9-Left and 7-Right looked better (also a multiple of 16) and my encode crashed after doing the 'de-interlace check'... what gives ?

I downsized the main episodes to 720x400 but this extra I'm taking downto 640x368 (1024x576 Orig)... IF I choose the 640 width option (drop down menu)... does it automatically crop and then downsize ?





@weaver4
Nice to see your quantizer encoding is coming together... you've always been into very much better quality encoding allbeit at low-res where most guys want to compress 10 movies onto 1 DVD at really poor quality levels.
