Please do so, make it modulair, so you can start different
scalers using a define. like visual_video_scale 
(VISUAL_VIDEO_SCALE_NEAREST, ...).. I'd like to have
a NEAREST and BILINAIR scaler :).. Also make sure that the
actual scale function won't be super big, split up in smaller
static functions, that append at the end of lv_video.c

You can, but please send patches to the list first so I can review
them!

I doubt if it's needed for the scalar, but lv_bmp still needs
to be adjusted.

Aah, alright!, cool :). Eventually we could have a QT widget and 
VisVideo inbuffer method as well.
