[MEncoder-users] subtitles expand problem

I found a brute way to fix the problem in my case (-vf
crop=704:544:8:16,scale,expand=0:-50:0:0:1 -nooverlapsub -zoom -xy 640
-spualign 2), in vf_scale.c, in remove_func_2(), I force y0 = 360; h = 50, as
follows (my movie once created is 626x410):

static void remove_func_2(int x0,int y0, int w,int h){
y0 = 360; h = 50;
    vf_mpi_clear(vf->dmpi,x0,y0,w,h);
}

So it seems the black stripe was not properly cleared in my case.
Is there any clean patch to fix that?
