Lanczos or Bicubic Sharp?

[anonymez]

Hi all

I only just learned to use Gordian Knot thanks to Uncas's guide, but i wanted to know what the difference is between the 2 resize filters lanczos or bicubic sharp? and which gives better results?

oh and by the way, i am encoding from dvd to divx 5.1.1

lanczos produces sharper results than sharpbicubic, but therefore probably also more blocks when you have too low bitrates

therefore if you are going for a 1cd encode and have a hard to compress movie (very bright and/or long) use sharp bicubic or a filter below
on the opposite use lanczos

thanks for filling me in
