I should note that you do still get some black edges even with the crop patch, which end up being more vignette like, but still very apparent, this is because edge pixels outside the boundary of the image are calculate before the crop and taken into consideration for values within the boundary depending on the width of the blur. This may be technically correct for usages where your input image is placed within a larger canvas (think photoshop, you want your edges to blur out to be transparent), but can be odd/unexpected in video when you want your blur to blur the whole frame and nothing but the frame. Anyway :)

A common practice would be to chain an Image Crop patch after a blur, or any of the CI patches that change the image bounds. Then, one would take an Image Dimensions patch, connect it's input to the image source, and then take the pixel w/h out, and connect it to the Image Crop patch, thereby eliminating the edges. If you do that, you can eliminate it with standard patches. You can pull up the Image Filter example composition at the QC startup that shows a CI Zoom Blur setup in this way, along with some mouse interaction macro to adjust for how large the viewer is.
