i played around with asharp a bit, and it seems i was very inspired when i wrote it, because it seems the algorithm is almost perfect ^_^
i'm going to SIMD this afternoon.

just wait for SIMD optimisations ^_^, i'll start with ISSE (my cpu target), maybe add MMX support later. i hope +200% speed at least.

fixed ? what ? H.263is just more low-frequency friendly. i recommend you too keep H.263, even with movie, because the quality is better in low frequency, and post-processing (with sharpenning ^^) will do the job better than MPEG stuff. MPEG is good for hardware decoding.
>- Enough said.I won't try to persuade you although the hope for >optimizations dies last
i'm going to do that ASAP ^_^
I tested asharp yesterday and I was very satisfied with results. I'll include it to ffdshow immediatelly after the source code will be available.
would i be possible to allow 3 scroll bars settings ? if it's helping you, i can merge 2 settings into one + checkbox. it may be more easy to make the interface this way.
BTW, since it's a post-processing filter, it may be a good idea to have QP acces (like PP) at decoding. maybe it would help to enhance quality a bit. would it be possible ?
