Scaling an image in C
I am creating a jpeg for a bmp decoder that scales the image. I got the source code for the decoder, so my actual work is to design the scaling. I don't know where to start. I've researched the internet for various scaling algorithms but don't know where to introduce scaling. So should I do the scaling after converting the image to bmp or should I do it while decoding at the MCU level. I'm confused: (
If you have any information to help me, it is appreciated. any reading material, source code for analysis, etc.
Oh, I forgot to mention one more, this is a pc to fpga porting project, so not all library files are available on the target platform.

There are many ways to scale an image.
The easiest way is to decode the image and then scale using a naive scaling algorithm like:
dest_pixel [x,y] = src_pixel [x * x_scale_factor, y * y_scale_factor]
where x / y_scale_factor
src_size / dest_size
Once you get started, you can explore more sophisticated scaling systems such as a bilinear filter. For example, a destination pixel is the average of multiple source pixels when downsized and interpolates multiple source pixels when upsized.
