yes, the current mess is the result of incremenally adding features which 
wherent planned orginally ...

a cleaner architecture would be to split the stuff

preconverter -> h scale -> v scale -> postconverter

for each stage there are various filters available (for example a v scaler 
which can output rgb15 and read 16bit planar yuv), and unneeded stages would 
simply be skiped

maybe we could use use mplayer (g2) filter architecture for the individual 
steps, but that would need very well working slice support
