## Detailed Description

A class for fast down-conversion of picture data. The picture data is downconverted by a factor of two in each dimension, using fast filtering techniques. The filter is a half-band filter designed to trade off frequency response, ringiness, and aliasing

## Member Function Documentation

void dirac::DownConverter::DoDownConvert | ( | const PicArray & | old_data,
|  | PicArray & | new_data |
| ) |  |  |

A function to do the actual downconversion.

Parameters:

  | old_data | the picture data to be downconverted
  | new_data | the resulting down-converted data. The array must be of the correct size.
