ldoodle:
Can someone confirm the order of the Scaling algorithms:

Take the medium performance list as an example:

•Mitchell-Netravali
•Catmull-Rom
•Bicubic
•SoftCubic

So does MN produce better image than CR, which produces better image than Bicubic etc.

In other words, they're listed in order of image quality, or have I got that the wrong way round and they're in order of performance?

Thanks

All of those algorithms should perform exactly the same.
As for image quality, it depends a lot on your personal preferences.
 
Mitchell-Netravali is a medium-to-low sharpness algorithm, which has very little ringing.
Catmull-Rom and Bicubic are sharper, but exhibit more ringing and aliasing. (jagged edges)
SoftCubic is very soft, but has low amounts of ringing and often "hides" compression artifacts in a bad quality source.

Thanks!

One thing I have noticed with DVDs, is I get a lot of repeated frames. Queue lengths are full, dropped/delayed frames are 0, but repeated frames can climb to 1000+ in a matter of minutes.

The repeated frames line does not appear on Blu's.

Hello, I'm planning to build an HTPC with JRiver+Madvr (maybe with xbmc), which would be the CPU+GPU needed for the highest quality?

I don't know if an AMD kaveri 7850k would be enough!?

Or I should base the htpc on a intel i7 + dedicated video card?

It would be used mainly as BD player, so movies at 1080p and I would like to apply the madvr's maximum quality available

Thanks a lot



EDIT: I'm sorry I've just figured out I posted in the guide my bad, sorry again

I doubt it would be able to use the "highest quality" settings, as that is a moving target.
Recently there were some additions which really increase the GPU demands if you want to use them.
 
I'm not sure if anyone here has tried using the new AMD Kaveri APUs here.
I'm sure it would work well and give you very good image quality though, just not the maximum settings.
