Ubuntu upscaling quality poorer compared to Windows
Posted: 29 Mar 2021 15:29
I seem to be having an issue where the quality in vlc 3.0.9.2 on Ubuntu 20.04 is lower than that of the same version of VLC on Windows 10. In this scenario, I have a 720p stream that gets upscaled to 1080p. On Ubuntu, the image isn't as sharp, and there's a black bar at the bottom of the video. On windows, there is no black bar and the image is crisper. I'm using all the default settings as I have no idea what to change. I took comparison screenshots of the video here: https://imgur.com/a/0LpjvYT. The images are 1440p, but I usually watch the stream on my projector at 1080p. The problem persists regardless of resolution.
My cpu is a Ryzen 3600 and my gpu is a Radeon 5700XT, not sure if that matters or not. Thanks in advance
