there's a -

an

and

"I didn't test, but apparently ilpack can be dropped"

To be fair I will never be certain about anything - and it's possible
that ilpack "wins" by doing something different in the weighting.

The author clearly knew that the samples were 25/75% distant -

Yet the code seems to weight 3/8 5/8 (maybe I misunderstand!)

earlier in the thread he mentions doing "proper weights"

I think I have already posted that this is better but not as good a ilpack.

I fail to understand this sentence!

I know the output of MPlayer + ilpack is 422 if that's what you mean,
but it is visibly different from that made when doing

ffmpeg -i in-420i  vf scale=interl=1,format=yuv422p ...
