yuvscaler is the video scaler which ships with MJPEGtools.
yuvscaler implements two scaling modes, "RESAMPLE" and "BICUBIC". The following table compares their performance in downsampling with y4mscaler's box and cubic kernels.
yuvscaler is invoked as follows for the test:
yuvscaler -v 0 -M RESAMPLE -M RATIO_M_N_1_1 -O SIZE_120x120
yuvscaler -v 0 -M BICUBIC -M RATIO_M_N_1_1 -O SIZE_120x120

From this comparison, it is apparent that yuvscaler's RESAMPLE mode is equivalent to a box filter, and the BICUBIC mode is a cubic filter. The BICUBIC mode appears to have some subtle problems with some downscaling ratios.
