        I forget why you're not scaling to the size you'll want eventually.

        It appears that you're going from 1280x960 to 1024x768 as an
        intermediate stage, doing some processing, and then scaling
        again at some point to PAL DVD frame size.

        Small file <grins> - you should see some of mine ;)

        Seagate just announced a 750GB drive ...  Prices on the 500GB drives
        are falling rapidly, at least here in the US.

        That's a problem?  I thought you'd resolved those issues a long time
        ago

        Why, and if you mentioned it before I've forgotten, not scale to
        the PAL DVD frame size?  Much more manageable and it's what you want
        eventually anyhow.

        Your camera I recall your mentioning generates 1280x960 8bit 4:2:2
        video range data.   That's a 4:3 image exactly.  But there's some
        junk/cruft/sprocket-holes/whatever on the edges that you want to get
        rid of.  So, crop a 4:3 subset of the frame - I recall you'd mentioned
        that about 40 pixels on each side was the correct amount.  That leaves
        1200 pixels - so to get a 4:3 image the active area becomes 1200x900
        (4:3 exactly), need to crop 30 pixels from top and bottom.

        This will do exactly and precisely the right thing:

 ... | y4mscaler -I active=1200x900+40+30 -O sar=59:54 -O size=704x576 -O 
infer=exact | ...

        Varying the crop parameters probably is necessary but that should be
        a good starting point.

        If you want the looser-scan 720x576 frame size feel free to change
        the 704 to 720 - y4mscaler will pad by 8 pixels on each side to
        accomodate your desire.

        The smaller frame size should speed things up a lot and save a lot
        of disk space too.

        Good Luck,

        Steven Schultz
