How do I remove the bezel from my simracing videos...

A bit of contribution back to the amazing open source community that helps us all with great, open, free developments. This video illustrates how do I remove the bezel from my simracing videos... The bash script to achieve this result, (Of course variables are customised to my specific rig configuration), is as follows: **************** SCRIPT STARTS HERE ******************** #!/bin/bash frei0r lenscorrection parameters x=0.453;y=0.38; nc=0.32;ne=0.48; angle=3.5;b=1 Color levels parameters cmin=0.02 cmind=0.02 cmins=0.05 cmax=1 Cutting parameters LEFT Lx=0;Ly=46;Lyn=36 Lw=217;Lh=687 Lwn=270;Lhn=706 RIGHT Rx=1568;Ry=10;Ryn=7;Rxn=1500; Rw=$((1920-$Rx));Rh=850 Rwn=$((1920-$Rxn));Rhn=870 #Final cut topy=60; toph=$((1080-$topy)) ffmpeg \ -i video.avi \ -filter_complex "\ [0:v] setpts=PTS-STARTPTS,colorlevels=rimin=$cmin:gimin=$cmin:bimin=$cmin,\ rotate=-$angle*PI/180,frei0r=lenscorrection:$x:$y:$nc:$ne:$b [head]; \ [0:v] setpts=PTS-STARTPTS,colorlevels=rimin=$cmind:gimin=$cmind:bimin=$cmind,\ rotate=-$angle*PI/180,frei0r=lenscorrection:$x:$y:$nc:$ne:$b,crop=$Lw:$Lh:$Lx:$Ly,scale=${Lwn}x${Lhn} [left]; \ [0:v] setpts=PTS-STARTPTS,colorlevels=rimin=$cmin:gimin=$cmin:bimin=$cmin,\ rotate=-$angle*PI/180,frei0r=lenscorrection:$x:$y:$nc:$ne:$b,crop=$Rw:$Rh:$Rx:$Ry,scale=${Rwn}x${Rhn} [right]; \ [head][left] overlay=shortest=1:x=$Lx:y=$Lyn [tmp1]; \ [tmp1][right] overlay=shortest=1:x=$Rxn:y=$Ryn [tmp2]; \ [tmp2] crop=1920:$toph:0:$topy " -c:v libx264 -c:a aac -strict experimental -b:a 128k fr.mp4 **************** SCRIPT FINISHES HERE ******************** The above assumes the original video as per the camera take in avi format (video.avi) and produces an output processed video in mp4 format ready for youtube (fr.mp4) There are some angle and color level corrections that are necessary in my specific setup and probably don't apply to other configurations. The script above works in any linux, macosx system with ffmpeg and frei0r installed. There are plenty of support to install those libs in google. It is also easy and totally free to install Oracle VM VirtualBox and an Ubuntu system in any MS Windows system... Have fun!
