Hi,
I'm trying to iron out some of the anomolies here and there are several
interpolations using a frig factor I dont understand. I'm probably missing
the point but I get the feeling this has been done impirically to overcome
a problem that has not been identified and may well be the root cause of
some of the glitches that are being seen.
If I'm just being dumb, please explain and accept my appologies.
src_col = ((gint) (x * ratio + 2.0 - 0.5)) - 2;
/* +2, -2 is there because (int) rounds towards 0 and we need
to round down */
now it seems to me that
src_col = ((gint) (x * ratio + 2.0 - 0.5)) - 2;
is no different to
src_col = ((gint) (x * ratio + 1.0 - 0.5)) - 1;
which is the same as
src_col = ((gint) (x * ratio + 0.5)) - 1;
now I would normally expect something like (gint) (x * ratio + 0.5) to
overcome the truncation error, so why is the -1 necessary afterwards.
This occurs on linear , cubic and earlier lanczos ; this suggests to me
that there is a bug somewhere out side the unit where this code resides.
Why is this adjustment needed?
thx.
