> Are you suggesting I should add “const FFFilter ff_vf_yazp = {}” in “vf_perspective.c” and move the zoompan logic there? If not, maybe what you’re suggesting has already been implemented in another filter and I can use it as an example to understand and reproduce it better?

I guess whats best would be to factor the interpolation code out of
vf_perspective.c into a new file as patch #1
and then use that new factored out code in a new filter that has a zoompan
style user interface in patch #2

thx
