I second that some day we should support upscaling. I don't know how that would fit into our pipe, or if we would just upscale the final result with some fancy algorithm, but somehow it should probably be an option. Probably with a warning or explicit confirmation by the user that he wants upscaling (could just be a selection he has to enable in the gui). > Rgds, > Rob. Tobias [...]
