obtaining auto-crop detection values

[dennisqwilson]

Handbrake newbie here, though I'm an intermediate-level ffmpeg scripter. Is there any way, using HandbrakeCLI, to output the "autocrop" black bar detection readings to a text file? I have no need to do any further processing, just read the cropping values. Thanks.

HandBrakeCLI --input yourfile.foo -t 0 | grep autocrop > outfile.txt

Thank you so much. I should have mentioned that I work in Windows, but I'll see if I can't modify your command line to work with "findstr" instead of grep and report back.
