sharpening is the general enemy of scaling. so if there are exposed settings with sharpening, set them off or normal or smoother, or selecting a better quality scaling algorthim is all you should need to use. I do this all day long and don’t have problems with camera images.
if there is any place where there is a problem, its in interlaced material ( usually SD, can be HD ) thats had its fields munged ( speed changes, clumsy handling of interlace usually involving operator error ) and not easy to remove w/o manual fixes. otherwise if I have seen something, its started with the original image, not the scaling.

Motion graphic shapes and text can cause issue but like upscaling, often the best solution is to re-render those elements if possible native to deliverable resolution.
