I do not konw. I notice that vf_scale() is not using
sws_alloc_context(), then setting options then sws_init_context() while
you use sws_getContext(), which includes sws_init_context(), and then
you set the threads options. Therefore, I suspect you need to set the
threads options before sws_init_context() is called.

Please remember that top-posting is forbidden on this mailing-list; if
you do not know what it means look it up.
