Re: [Thoggen-devel] Problems with 0.60

[Patrick <pa...@gl...>]

I forgot to mention one thing...
I was thinking that once the aspect ratio issue was sorted out I coul=
d
use the cropping options to get rid of the black borders that showed =
up
on the track preview so I tried it. However, the preview in the crop
selection dialog does not have any black border around the video to c=
rop
and video is the correct aspect ratio!
