Well I think 640:352 is better since 352 is multiple of 16...

I suggest the following:

1)Run cropdetect:

mencoder -ovc lavc -lavcopt vcodec=mpeg4 -nosound -vop cropdetect \
-o /dev/null yours_vobs.vob

in your vob files. Wait a few seconds and ctrl-C.

 You get something like this:

-vop crop=704:430:8:22 somewhere

2) If your movie is 4:3 choose SCALE=640:480, if it is 1.77:1 choose
SCALE=640:352 and SCALE=640:272 if it is 2.35:1 
There is other possibles values ... Look for a message from dominik ... ?
(my apologizes dominik, your last name is to complicate for an argentine
and I not at home now)
about ntsc

then your vop option is:

-vop scale=SCALE,crop=crop=704:430:8:22

Beside the values found by cropdetect, I don't know if is better to take
 the first values (704 and 430) multiple of 16 (or at least of 8) 
or not... Any opinion?

Martin
