The work was blocked behind several pieces including a release cycle for the UI for HTPC and for Plex for \*. Those release cycles didn’t occur over the Christmas break and got delayed starting again afterwards. They have now occurred and so this work is finally unblocked. So likely the next version or the one after that.

I thought this had been added to the docs or previously mentioned here but I guess not. This is what the settings currently set:

```auto
Low Quality:
scale: bilinear
cscale: bilinear
dscale: bilinear
dither-depth: no
correct-downscaling: no
linear-downscaling: no
sigmoid-upscaling: no
deband: no

Normal Quality:
scale: spline36
cscale: spline36
dscale: spline36
dither-depth: no
correct-downscaling: no
linear-downscaling: no
sigmoid-upscaling: no
deband: no

High Quality:
scale: spline36
cscale: spline36
dscale: mitchell
dither-depth: auto
correct-downscaling: yes
linear-downscaling: yes
sigmoid-upscaling: yes
deband: yes

Maximum Quality:
scale: ewa_lanczossharp
cscale: ewa_lanczossharp
dscale: ewa_lanczossharp
dither-depth: auto
correct-downscaling: yes
linear-downscaling: yes
sigmoid-upscaling: yes
deband: yes

```
