Magento - Resize images, keep aspect ratio, crop what exceeds the size

I want to resize an image in magento keeping its aspect ratio and make it fill a rectangle with another aspect ratio.

Example:

My image is 640x480

And my rectangle is 100x50

I want the image to fill ALL the rectangle and crop what exceeds it.

I'm aware of keepFrame(FALSE) - It doesn't make the image fill the rectangle, instead it makes it fit inside and doesnt crop anything.

Also, if you familiar with Wordpress, what I want is the as doing: *add_image_size('home',370,256,true);*

Thank you :)
