Title:          resizer-yuv
Version:        0.3
Entered-date:   2002-10-08
Description:    'resizer-yuv' for use with mjpegtools.
                Designed to convert 720x576 DVB-s PAL satellite TV mpg to
                CVD 352x576. (D2) (for video CDs playable in DVD players).
                This resizes video, without the artifacts (aliasing
                effects) that yuvscaler causes. 
                I took this code from transcode bbmpeg resize.c, and gave
                it an yuv interface conform mjpegtools.
                Also I used low pass pre-filtering using fft followed by
                reverse fft, to prevent aliasing in the high frequency range.
                This uses the very cool fft fftw-2.1.3.tar.gz library from:
                http://www.fftw.org/download.html
                Use the version best suited for your processor.
                resizer-yuv will run tests to find out the best fft algo if
                you specify the -m flag on the command line.
                To unpack:
                tar -zxvf resizer-yuv-0.3.tgz
                cd resizer-yuv-0.3
                Then follow the instructions in README.
                Tested with 720 x 576 to 352 x 576
                Documentation: read the provided README.
                Changes:
                0.3:
                log option added -g 
                This creates a slope based on a logarithmic frequency scale.
                As everything else here, this is all experimental.
