Picture Crop Side by Side

like I wrote before: I need a step-by-step of what you are doing

Would it not be better to send you the profile i use with all settings ?

Let me know..


Anyway, as ussual..

a. i load the media file and just customize some settings at Crop/Resize→Base tab...
b. i use 1.picture crop 2. Resize & 3. letterbox to keep and maintain FHD resolution ..
C. as you may have noticed using the sharpen+denoise+color filters (vapoursynth) 
D. choose x264 as video code / Audio ignored (in this instance) 2-pass (no fast pass)
E. added and started job , and let it sudder for an hour or so .. 

Again, if you want to know specific detailed settings, it would be faster to pm you the profile.. 
You should be able to reproduce this issue easier using my profile anyway too..


let me know.

I need details regarding:

a. i load the media file and just customize some settings at Crop/Resize→Base tab...
b. i use 1.picture crop 2. Resize & 3. letterbox to keep and maintain FHD resolution ..

Like I wrote, the order of things is important.

I don"t think that will realy matter Selur, done that many times in the past.

Usually, 

a. Load Hybrid
B. load custom profile
c. load media file
d. adjust crop/filter setttings in this instance..


Hence why i suggested to send you my profile.


But i'll indulge you, and as soon hybrid is finished encoding (atm)  i'll wil load and use the media file using default settings.
that usually means:

A. loading hybrid
b. loading meda file
c. customize settings

Do you want me to mention in WHAT order i change WICH specific setting and WHAT the settings are ?

Just so we are on the same page.

In case you did not create the profile with the Hybrid version you are using.
Load it, and save it, restart Hybrid and then try again.
If that does not change anything, send me the profile, and I'll try to adjust it manually to work with my system.

Have to go to bed in ~2hours and will not be at my computer until Sunday.

OUCH.. that realy hurts  hahaha

@selur,

I think i have found the one setting that causes this!
Fyi, when i don't use that one setting, nothing gets cutted even though i have added the T,B,L,R vallues !


Furthermore, once i disable the setting, and pretty much go back to default settings. 
The added black borders stay vissible in preview filter window!

the setting iam refering to is, crop/resize → misc → Limit Resize to crop resolution ..


So, this issue should be easily reproduceable selur. 

These are the steps i took:

a. I have done an reset of all settings in hybrid and restarted hybrid
b. opened a media file
c. enabled the following crop settings : 1.picture crop 2. resize 3. letterbox
d. misc i enabled "limit resize to crop" 
e. changed picture crop vallue's to 30,30,30,30
f. letterbox vallues 1920x1080 WxH 
g. took an peak at preview window, black borders left & right this time.. in comparison mode and non-comparison mode aswell.

Changing everything back (manually = not by hybrid reset) didn't fixed anymore .. stuborn black border stay's and won't move an inch 

NOw, since i've reproduced this with the fresh and therefor default settings of latest hybrid, do you still need  the profile ?

Which is what I expected.

Source gets cropped to 1860x1020, resize does nothing since it's limited by "Limit Resize to crop resolution" and can only downscale, letterbox adds the borders back.

Cu Selur

this is getting odd..

It seems iam wrong about the settings i have used!  
appearantly i didn't use the setting "Limit Resize by crop" in my saved profiles, YET i do have the same results and looks pretty much like your example up there whitout using Limit resize crop for certain media files (not all).

With other media files the filtered content is cut at bottom & top not left right, and only the original image has added black bars left & right.  Watching it side by side.
But here's the thing , everything shows correct in the filter preview when the original image and filtered image is stacked !

ONLY THEN, i clearly can see the cutted sides T,B,L & Right in the filtered image compared to the original!?-

But again, doesn't work with all media files wich are all FHD (1080p) content though .. 
that having said, with certain 1080p media i can't seem to cut sideways, only the top and bottom ?! Or atleast, it doesn't show it in the filter preview !

I'll do some samples and check the results afterwards. Maybe for some reason, cut doesn't show up in the preview window for some strange reason... but may end in an good result anyway despite of that.

Try closing and opening the crop view. If the preview or crop view is open while the crop values change too fast, updates (to the preview) may get dropped.

that's the odd part, crop view doesn't seem  to work.  It shows the original full picture ! 
Hence why i have to rely on the filter preview using specific settings...

Like i mentioned before, when stacked the filtered image looks just about right and identical to the output file.  But the odd part is, that the left and right part of the original picture is cutted as well and the small cut is replaced by an black thin border !  Top & bottom is kept normal, just like the original picture in comparison mode.

I tried to apply my method to all of my media files, but filter preview doesn't show me a Left & Right cropped preview of all the media files for some reason!
It's as if → Anamorphic Crop is applied to certain media files of mine   ..  
Atleast from the looks of the output file it sure looks this way .. 

Might explain why left and right isn't cut off in filter preview with certain media.. 
 
EDIT: i noticed that the problem is the "original" picture representation in comparison mode! You have no real reference to the original picture, when borders are added instead of maintaining the original picture as is >_> !
