Hi Dan,
The settings best for down-scaling are in order (lowest to highest) -
Filtered, Pixel Summing Bilinear, & Pixel Summing Bicubic.
To increase sharpness as you scale up always use Bicubic.

Subject: 16x9 reformatting in DS- my xpress Pro does it better!
Why can't I seem to get the DS DVE to give me a really sharp and clean
image when I want to reformat it for 16:9? I've never got a decent
result with this over the last few years and wondering if I'm missing
something.
When I have Squeezed/Anamorphic, native 16:9 footage that I need to
reformat for 4:3 as either letterbox or full screen, the result is
always soft for me. If I use the "reformat" effect in either Xpress Pro
or Adrenaline, the image is far superior.
Please tell me I'm doing something wrong...
Yes, I've tried all the quality settings, and tried different x, y
values, still no good.
for letterboxing, I use x=100, y=75, bilinear. For going the other way
from 4:3 to 16:9, x=100, y=125.
Thanks for any help!
::)
Dan
