This might be where -filter_complex comes in?

I'm dumb. You should just need to follow the syntax I had before...

Code:

-vf "filterA=option:value, filterB=option:value"

You need quotes, you need to separate the filters with a comma. You shouldn't need anything else. Audio and video filters are invoked separately.

EDIT: I'll just do what you asked instead of being abstract about it...

An example deinterlace parameter

-vf yadif=1

My crop parameter

-vf crop=w=1920:h=848:x=0:y=116"

How would they look together, if possible?

Code:

-vf "crop=w=1920:h=848:x=0:y=116, yadif=1"

Order matters. I think you would want to crop first, then deinterlace, since it's less video to deinterlace, though since it's just black bars it's probably a wash.
