It's a bad idea to start at the beginning.  FBI warning, logos, etc.,
can all cause problems with cropdetect.

Also, cropdetect automatically rounds down, since it is necessary that
your
final video dimentions (after the use of crop, scale, expand, etc)
before encoding are even multiples of 16.  See the man page.
