    <div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi Nayan,<br>
      <br>
      ok let's take a step back and put the lanczos filtering aside for
      a moment. I have another task for you which is more urgent right
      now.<br>
      <br>
      The order we do things in vlVdpVideoMixerRender() was never 100%
      correct, so we have at least three problems here which needs
      fixing:<br>
      <br>
      1) The noise reduction and sharpness filter read and write to the
      same surface at the same time. That only works because we use a
      linear layout.<br>
      <br>
      2) We apply the noise reduction and sharpness filter after the
      composition. That is rather odd and should be fixed so that we
      apply those filters on the original video frame instead.<br>
      <br>
      3) We use delayed rendering to render into output surfaces
      directly. We should rather use the DRI3 capabilities to allocate
      multiple output surfaces instead.<br>
      <br>
      Could you take care of some of those issues? Especially #1 has
      become a problem recently.<br>
      <br>
      Regards,<br>
      Christian.<br>

              Hmm, that's interesting for a few reasons.<br>
              <br>
              Though my monitor won't do 1366x768 I can replicate the
              same scale<br>
              factor windowed with mplayer ... -xy 768/576 ...<br>
              <br>
              At first glance only level 2 is obviously artifacted
              (though very close<br>
              inspection shows others are slightly).<br>
              <br>
              Levels: for some reason your vid has the black bars at 0
              but the content<br>
              isn't scaled - like your mplayer didn't expand tv to pc on
              playback.<br>
              This shouldn't happen by default. Do you have some extra
              config<br>
              somewhere like in $HOME/.mplayer, if so maybe better to
              test without.<br>
              <br>
              Most important - though the vp9 compression may be to
              blame I can't<br>
              really see any difference between the levels in that vid.<br>
              <br>
              In fact closely comparing just your level 1 to my
              (admittedly<br>
              uncompressed) level 1 and 0 output scaled the same plus
              unstretched<br>
              levels wise it looks to me like you are getting level 0 on
              this test.<br>
