After a number of months of streaming to no one, i actually have people coming in to see the alpha content, so i wanted to come up with a way to try and retain some of those viewers and turn them into followers. I believe bicubic is actually better but uses more cpu because it uses nearestneighbor interpolation to guess at what the pixel is going to be. If omitted, or if the image has mode 1 or p, it is set nearest. Approximating catmullclark subdivision surfaces with. I said exactly the same on ppsspp forums psp emulator and that it would be a great idea to offer a different more sophisticated method of texture scaling, something like hqx or xbrz, which was an idea actualy many people liked and it ended up being implemented xbrz x12345, xbrz hybrid with bicubic, and a simplefast deposterization.
In this document, ill try to get to the bottom of what it really is. The increased smoothness of bicubic interpolation comes at a substantial cost in terms of processing time.

Billinear and bicubic is for down and up sampling of the source video. Accordingly, while bilinear interpolation is fairly quick and may not be that much slower than nearestneighbor calculations, bicubic interpolation is slower. If you know the term bicubic resampling, you probably assume that it is a specific algorithm used to resize images. If yes, how can i find the two middle control points of this bezier curve. Bicubic patches are useful surface representations because they allow an easy definition of surfaces using only a few control points.

Ppsspp added 3 futher options beside xbrz which are great for texture scaling. What you will notice is that your results look much better.
Parametric bicubic surfaces cubic polynomials are also used for piecewise interpolation of sets of points on a surface. In combination with xbrz the posterisation effect is also not so hard and visible. Then interpolation is of no use, nearestneighbor is good enough, as the filtered image is very smooth.

These are typically linked up to form a bspline surface in a similar way as bezier curves are linked up to form a bspline curve. In this case, the polynomials are functions of two parameters, u and v. Because bilinear is faster, you might as well use that.
Thatd give a speedup boost and better results though billinear should look better than bicubic since the halos bicubic creates would be very obvious on gradients of textures that are very small like 32x32.
