Thank you Steve, this is of a great help !

Nice idea. You are probably right Nicolas, it would make sense to be
able to scale and convert color in the same element.

There is a need for a separate element too. So it could be handled in
front of the encoder if needed, on decoder output if needed, but
should be a single element too, instanciable multiple times if
multiple inputs/outputs are needed.
