Doom9's Forum - View Single Post - If you have downsized 1080 to 720, what scaler and filters did you use?

I'm generally a "no filter" kind of guy. There'd have to be a fairly specific reason for me to try to "improve" on the source rather than just duplicate it.
Either Lanczros or Spline36 resizing (although to be honest I can't really see much of a difference) and some very minor noise removal (undot.dll) would be about it for me.
If file size isn't much of an issue just use CRF encoding with a CRF value of somewhere around 18 to 20. Or if you're wanting to burn the encode to a DVD... use all of it.
