@chapter Scaler Options
@c man begin SCALER OPTIONS
The video scaler supports the following named options.
Options may be set by specifying -@var{option} @var{value} in the
FFmpeg tools, with a few API-only exceptions noted below.
For programmatic use, they can be set explicitly in the
@code{SwsContext} options or through the @file{libavutil/opt.h} API.
@table @option
@anchor{sws_flags}
@item sws_flags
Set the scaler flags. This is also used to set the scaling
algorithm. Only a single algorithm should be selected. Default
value is @samp{bicubic}.
It accepts the following values:
@table @samp
@item fast_bilinear
Select fast bilinear scaling algorithm.
@item bilinear
Select bilinear scaling algorithm.
@item bicubic
Select bicubic scaling algorithm.
@item experimental
Select experimental scaling algorithm.
@item neighbor
Select nearest neighbor rescaling algorithm.
@item area
Select averaging area rescaling algorithm.
@item bicublin
Select bicubic scaling algorithm for the luma component, bilinear for
chroma components.
@item gauss
Select Gaussian rescaling algorithm.
@item sinc
Select sinc rescaling algorithm.
@item lanczos
Select Lanczos rescaling algorithm. The default width (alpha) is 3 and can be
changed by setting @code{param0}.
@item spline
Select natural bicubic spline rescaling algorithm.
@item print_info
Enable printing/debug logging.
@item accurate_rnd
Enable accurate rounding.
@item full_chroma_int
Enable full chroma interpolation.
@item full_chroma_inp
Select full chroma input.
@item bitexact
Enable bitexact output.
@end table
@item srcw @var{(API only)}
Set source width.
@item srch @var{(API only)}
Set source height.
@item dstw @var{(API only)}
Set destination width.
@item dsth @var{(API only)}
Set destination height.
@item src_format @var{(API only)}
Set source pixel format (must be expressed as an integer).
@item dst_format @var{(API only)}
Set destination pixel format (must be expressed as an integer).
@item src_range @var{(boolean)}
If value is set to @code{1}, indicates source is full range. Default value is
@code{0}, which indicates source is limited range.
@item dst_range @var{(boolean)}
If value is set to @code{1}, enable full range for destination. Default value
is @code{0}, which enables limited range.
@anchor{sws_params}
@item param0, param1
Set scaling algorithm parameters. The specified values are specific of
some scaling algorithms and ignored by others. The specified values
are floating point number values.
@item sws_dither
Set the dithering algorithm. Accepts one of the following
values. Default value is @samp{auto}.
@table @samp
@item auto
automatic choice
@item none
no dithering
@item bayer
bayer dither
@item ed
error diffusion dither
@item a_dither
arithmetic dither, based using addition
@item x_dither
arithmetic dither, based using xor (more random/less apparent patterning that
a_dither).
@end table
@item alphablend
Set the alpha blending to use when the input has alpha but the output does not.
Default value is @samp{none}.
@table @samp
@item uniform_color
Blend onto a uniform background color
@item checkerboard
Blend onto a checkerboard
@item none
No blending
@end table
@end table
