[FFmpeg-user] Overlay filter feature suggestion

[Paulo Barretto]

I am not a developer. At least, not one at that level. You can disregard my
stupid opinion.

There's nothing wrong with the crop filter, but it just crops. For zooming
the video should be scaled, not cropped.

No need to think about the overlay filter.
I mean a filter with time-dependent width and height parameters, that would
scale each frame and keep the output cropped and padded to constant
dimensions.
Just like rotate filter does.
