I am not sure where I read that, but I thought it should be replaced with something else.
Can't Specify, thread is lost, due the lightning strike.
Maybe I am Wrong ?!, is/will it (be) still included ?

I think you're referring to the replacement of the software scaling with scaling in fragment shaders.

[ubuntuf4n]

Yes, You might be right.

Is this supported in the current release for windows or do I need to go to the svn to get it?

Also from what I understand I can use cpu or gpu to do the calculations. What setting toggles this? While I got a 9 series gpu I think an i7 920 might be faster in software mode.

[bobo1on1]

On windows, the only option is to use an svn build and use the gpu for scaling.

[ZERO <ibis>]

Will an integrated gpu like on the i3s work or will I need a real card?

[bobo1on1]

Only one way to find out.

If I enable HQ scalers on SDvideo with the Win32 branch V30539 (and older), on my NVidea ION setup; I never worked with framerates >25....
Framerates are unfortunate always dropped (with lancos3 optimized, set from OSD) to max. 10-12 frames.

Bilineair scaling is the only option which works with the correct framerates.
All the others not.
I have the idea that no GPU scaling is used, but only CPU. Am I right?
Or do I need to set HQ scaling in advanced settings too for correct GPU scaling.

My cpu is an overclocked Core2duo-5200 at 3480Mhz; so even with CPU scaling i presume it should do better too.

[spiff]

no you are completely wrong. those shaders = GPU programs for scaling.

[bobo1on1]

Software scaling is currently broken in svn, it doesn't turn on even if you select it.
