Soo...just make it an option for those who are owners of high-end pc's & mac's :idea: :twisted:

You can actually do brute force anti-aliasing yourself by making the composition twice or four times the output you need, and then scaling down before going the output.

How can this actually work with slices? *thinking* :shock:

But that would mean your clips would have to be re encoded at a high res as well, would´t ´em?

This is partly what makes anti-aliasing such a tricky subject. 'Normal' moving content generally would be anti-aliased already, so there's no point in rendering it at higher res during playback. Only content generated in Resolume directly (sources, Flash, QC) would benefit from supersampling.

I've been using Arena as my main "scaler" device for quite long already under windows and when I noticed the aliasing compared to an actual high-end scaler, did some research and ended up forcing antialiasing through AMD's control panel for Arena.exe and tweaking some V-Sync options.
At that point, FPS stood steadily at 60fps, no matter what kind of routing or output I use. So performance is clearly not a problem for many of us.
Would be great if you could make available an optional feature for the Mac version to "tell" OS X to enable antialiasing (I know for a fact they require the app developers to enable this opengl option within the app itself, as games do)

Just found this hit after searching, So is it recommended to use an external scaler when outputting to LED panels when the pixel pitch is larger than the composition resolution?
