Difference between video filter & video filter2

[nataraajc]

1. Please could someone explain the difference between the "video filter" and "video filter2" architectures and in what situations they should be used?
2. What is the usage of "video filter2" & "video filter"?
3. Is one architecture faster than the other (eg does one involve an extra image copy)?
4. Can any "video filter" filter be rewritten as a "video filter2" filter?

Thx
Natz
