I can even run that algorithm in combination with use NNEDI3 (16 neurons) chroma scaling, which is a ridiculously inefficient way to shift chroma half a pixel. |
Did you have time to look into the potential patent issues yet? If there are no problems, I'd love to add your algo to madVR ASAP. I expect downscaling 4K content to 1080p will be a big thing, so good quality downscaling will be more important than ever. Thanks.
