So you mean we could compile the ds.jar into a stand alone commandline tool ?
This would be a nice alternative !
How can this be achieved ? (sorry i'm not very familiar with java :-/)

Okay this sound like a possible solution since it's no problem for vdr2divx to 
peak every n seconds into the file and check the crop suggestions ...
However this won't be in the first release - but it sounds like a useful 
feature for the future - although cropping breaks interlacing - but if it has 
black borders, it's often non-interlaced so it might make sense ...
