Ideally we should stretch the shape of the kernel with the scaling ratio.
These were the kernels:
0.00 Sinc over the range +-3*PI with Hamming window applied,
0.02 Sinc with Hamming window applied,
0.04 Sinc over the range +-2.5*PI with Hamming window applied,
0.06 Sinc,
0.08 Sinc with Blackmann window applied,
0.10 Sinc with no side lobes,
0.12 Sinc with half the first side lobe
0.14 Mitchell Netravali (with B=1/3,C=1/3)
0.16 nearest_neighbour,
Here's another suggested by the image scaling guy (you can just enter that while video is playing):
It's a cubic with A=-0.5.Code:vcgencmd scaling_kernel 0 -4 -8 -14 -18 -19 -16 -8 9 39 77 122 166 206 237 255 255 237 206 166 122 77 39 9 -8 -16 -19 -18 -14 -8 -4 0
To my eyes (TV sharpness at zero), 0.08 exaggerated compression artifacts more than 0.14. My preference is for 0.14. Although I would be really curious about comparing it to Lanzcos3.
Yes please, another vote for Lanczos3 if possible... no idea on how to do it myself.
