What is a factor scale?

[php111]

Hey everyone,

As I remember one of my recent AIM conversations with DigitAl56k from DivX Corp (No I don't have a copy of the message). He said he uses BlackmanResize or LanczosResize. I asked him what he use more. He replied depending on a factor scale. I didn't ask him but in DivX Corp what is a factor scale? If I remember that name right?

The term I think he said was "scale factor," which means "how much are you resizing it". So what he means is that depending on how much larger he's resizing to, he chooses a different resizer.

Oh ok. That makes sense.

I use 720x400 for 16:9 and 720x544 for 4:3. Will you take another guess and which would use between them two?

Will someone please reply and take a guess which one should I use Blackman or Lanczos for 720x400 for 16:9 and 720x544 for 4:3?

Hi!Will someone please reply and take a guess which one should I use Blackman or Lanczos for 720x400 for 16:9 and 720x544 for 4:3?Just make a little effort on your own - and try each on a few small samples - and arrive at your own conclusions...

You've gotten 2 strikes already (in a different thread), which should shut you up for a little while. Thread closed.
