using vdub, you can apply the null transform filter and then you can use crop

using avisynth, you can use crop(int left, int top, -int right, -int bottom)
so if you wanted to crop 8 pixels off the left and right it would look like
crop(8,0,-8,-0)

now cropping and resizing so you don't mess up the aspect ratio is not one of my strong suits

.. Virtual Dub requires very few steps, if I may ^_^
Video -----> Filters ------> resize

I'm doing this off of the Image you posted yet Video works exactly the same way ^_^

.. now get rid of those Sub-titles and TaDa ^__^

cropping is fine, but i've seen vdub produce some ugly resizes.
try lanczosresize(720, 576), and use vdub's null transform filter to apply cropping.
