AviSynth (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AviSynth" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;AviSynth</a>) may offer what you seek. Note that the 3.0 rewrite (<a href="http://avisynth3.unite-video.com/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;avisynth3.unite-video.com&#x2F;</a>) runs on both Windows and Linux.

Virtualdub is a personal favorite. <a href="http://www.virtualdub.org/docs/vdscript.txt" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.virtualdub.org&#x2F;docs&#x2F;vdscript.txt</a><p>I suppose FFMPEG could work too.

Mencoder can crop videos:<p><pre><code> mencoder $1 -vf crop=322:242:26:225 -oac mp3lame -ovc lavc -o $2 </code></pre> That command would extract a 322x242 rectangle from position 26, 225 in the video.
