It's being scaled. ppm2raw -h -n - images should be treated as NTSC -a - scale image and maintain aspect ratio The default is PAL and the '-a' says to scale. > And results look much better then when I use a -O SIZE=PAL. Better but "wrong"? What particular attribute is "better"? I have a *very* difficult time believing that the scaling implemented by ppm2raw is better than y4mscaler. You weren't using both -a to ppm2raw _and_ trying to use -O size=PAL? I think that would scramble things a bit. ALso, if you're going to PALDV then somewhere you're going to want to resample the chroma to 420_PALDV... I think Matt would be *extremely* interested in y4mscaler doing a poorer job of scaling than the naive (simplistic) scaling that ppm2raw is doing. Steven Schultz Using Tomcat but need to do more?
