One problem with simple interpolation is that it introduces high frequency
noise, so it has to be followed by a low-pass filter. I haven't looked at
the code, but if you haven't done that, it would explain the poor quality.
A quick look at Wikipedia suggests that the Lanczos filter is a low-pass
filter, so I guess better quality can be expected when using it.
