Hd2sd for AviSynth - download?

Hi,
I'v got a project to downscale some local football (soccer) HD footage to go onto DVD.
I've been scouring the web for hd2sd but all the links are out of date, for instance:

Quote:

The link for hd2sd that's shown in the tutorial has changed. The new link is: http://3dvp.com/hd2sd_sd2hd.zip

Has anyone got a copy I can use?

Likely HD2SD is difficult to find because it's buggy and no one uses it these days. The preference is for a doom9 script that is used as-is on both progressive and interlaced video. The function does low-pass filter "automatically" during resizing to reduce chroma shift, aliasing, and interline twitter. The biggest problem with HD2SD and other downscaling is interline twitter: .https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interl...erline_twitter

function IResize(clip Clip, int NewWidth, int NewHeight) {

  Clip

  SeparateFields() 

  Shift=(GetParity() ? -0.25 : 0.25) * (Height()/Float(NewHeight/2)-1.0)

  E  = SelectEven().Spline36resize(NewWidth, NewHeight/2, 0,    Shift)

  O  = SelectOdd( ).Spline36resize(NewWidth, NewHeight/2, 0,   -Shift)

  Ec = SelectEven().Spline36Resize(NewWidth, NewHeight/2, 0,  2*Shift)

  Oc = SelectOdd( ).Spline36Resize(NewWidth, NewHeight/2, 0, -2*shift)

  Interleave(E, O)

  IsYV12() ? MergeChroma(Interleave(Ec, Oc)) : Last

  Weave()

You can copy that function into a script or save it as an .avsi plugijn file.

Example of use:

Code:

source=AviSource(“d:\fs.avi”).

Resize(source,720,480)

ColorMatrix(mode="Rec.709->Rec.601",clamp=0)

Thanks, I'll give that a go.

And by the way, somehow or other the last, ending character (closing brace "}") in that iResize function script didn't get posted. So I'm posting it again with the missing "}" closing brace at the end:
