Neat idea. I don't know if it will work with photo type images,
though, or with the distortion artifacts from mpeg-type encoding.
Also, 2xsai was originally under some horrible nonfree license, but
since it's included in ZSNES, it's apparently available under GPL now.
Anyone feel like taking a shot at integrating 2xsai or implementing a
similar algorithm for mplayer?
