spoRV, I know you're a master and an expert, however I think you're mistaken, but it's ok. I would think MKV does define the use of a viewport separate from resolution, whether this is actually implemented/supported in players for all video codecs is another thing, but for MPEG-2, it's supported with VOB's and I'm assuming MKV's (because MKV's were defined supposedly to support DVD functions very closely, however as we all know the software/implementations don't actually do this). I've always been interested in this because of my previous fullscreen comments, and now I'll look it up when I get a free chance.
A quick search turned up this, which doesn't definitely say lossless MKV cropping supported but does align nicely with my and Stampers opinions and thoughts.
