NAME
     libswscale - video scaling and pixel format conversion library

DESCRIPTION
     The libswscale library performs highly optimized image scaling and color-
     space and pixel format conversion operations.

     Specifically, this library performs the following conversions:

     *	 Rescaling: is the process of changing the video size. Several rescaling
	 options and algorithms are available. This is usually a lossy process.

     *	 Pixel format conversion: is the process of converting the image format
	 and colorspace of the image, for example from planar YUV420P to RGB24
	 packed. It also handles packing conversion, that is converts from
	 packed layout (all pixels belonging to distinct planes interleaved in
	 the same buffer), to planar layout (all samples belonging to the same
	 plane stored in a dedicated buffer or "plane").

	 This is usually a lossy process in case the source and destination col-
	 orspaces differ.
