guys i am a total linux n00b but i really need to install this as i have about 1TB worth of SD videos!
i have root access via SFTP but when it comes to command line stuff i have no idea what i'm doing.
can somebody post a step-by-step as to how to install these custom shaders?

Augh!
I have an Asrock ION 330 and I just can't get it to perform with the new scalers.
I've tested on svn trunk from a couple of hours ago, and I've tested with AlanWWW's method (Camelot + his patch). Same result.
When testing performance with Bobo1on1's method (no vblanc sync, play sd content (PAL DVD) pause, codec info, change between scalers) I constantly get something like:
Nearest Neighbor: 100-ish fps
Bilinear: 100-ish fps
Bicubic: 28-ish fps
Lanczos 2/3: 24-ish fps
Lanczos3 optimized 38-ish fps.
When choosing anything apart from bilinear/nearest neighbor, one of my CPUs max out at 100% - seems like the hard work never goes to the GPU...
Running Ubuntu Jaunty with nvidia drivers 195.36.15 from nvidia-ppa.
Could someone who has actually got this working be persuaded to publish his/her xorg.conf, so I can see if there's something obvious I've missed?
For the record, stuff in the BIOS is all set up properly.
How about related settings inside xbmc? I have render method set to auto. vblank sync is disabled, and currently I have disabled audio-sync (doesn't seem to influence this at all, though).
Also, what about stuff that can be set with nvidia-settings? - there are som scaling options in there, some opengl performance settings, etc. are they relevant at all?
Any suggestions?
Yours desperate truly

re-read the thread and corrected my response.
I have the same setup (Asrock 330) and will try this out as well (with the patch for camelot).
Thanks!

Is this built into the new versions of XBMC?

yes.
