Why is there no lavc-decoder handling? I would expect cropping side data submitted to lavc to be somehow propagated to decoded frames. Though there is a question of how to combine side data with the codec-level cropping.

I thought about adding lavc support alongside the CLI handling, yeah. And it should be a matter of adding the values to the existing ones in frame->crop_* as exported by decoders, which av_frame_apply_cropping() will then handle. And the reason i add support to the CLI by including a filter instead of leaving it up to lavc is that av_frame_apply_cropping() may not do exact cropping if AV_CODEC_FLAG_UNALIGNED is not set.

I intend to have the CLI always set AVCodecContext.apply_cropping=0 and have it handled by lavfi for this exact reason, just didn't get to actually doing it yet. Feel free and welcome to do it yourself.

Feel free and welcome to do it yourself. The cropping filter doesn't look at the frame cropping fields, though. It in fact exports cropping into them if you pass it hw frames. It only looks at input arguments. So it doesn't seem like that can be done without changing the filter.

I mean ffmpeg CLI would look at the frame cropping fields and insert the crop filter accordingly, as it does for other bits of metadata.
