I don't know the names of the algorithms off the top of my head, but here's the order of scaling quality: After Effects, regardless of hardware, is lowest Premiere Pro without a CUDA-enabled video card (so running in software only mode) Premiere Pro with a suitable CUDA card, either directly supported or manually added to the PP list
So use Premiere Pro, but you'll get better quality (and more speed) by adding a new(ish) video card.
According to what I've read on the list, scaling footage up in Premiere is better than scaling in AE or FCP. Is the quality dependent on the graphics card? Or is it software-based? For the job I'm working on now, speed isn't important – quality is paramount, and my graphics card is o l d . . . .
Many thanks in advance.
