Since VBox can easily use D3D/OpenGL shaders it makes sense to implement various scaling algorithms like bilinear or bicubic. I would love to see lanczos or spline as well.
Currently implemented nearest-neighbor interpolation is definitely not enough.
Already mentioned here.

Re: Scaling: various scaling algorithms
I agree that the currently used algorithm was barely acceptable 15 years ago, but why create a new topic? This forum tends to be busy at beta time and it's hard for developers to keep track of things when there are too many topics.
