Curious video to enhance, camera not moving in the clip and much of the clip is dark footage

[@davidforshaw6447]

Thank you for explaining the meaning of these different options. They can be very confusing for a new user.

[@mollysiu]

thank you, you explained in the most detail way compare with other tutorials

[@mikefuller363]

hi, they don't have a LIGHTEN feature? can we pretend that most of my videos are underlit? using conventional editors are time consuming and produce less than ideal results

[@mdturnerinoz]

I have had Topaz Video AI (hereafter TVAI) since it first came out and it is a lot better and easy to use now. BUT, even on my fully-maxed out Mac Studio M1 Ultra (128 GB 8TB SSD), a five minute video can take A LONG TIME even with simple up-scaling. So, get a powerful-enough PC/MAC but still be ready to do the laundry, read a book, play a game once you export! TVAI is great but a lot this can also be done in FCPX or DaVinci Resolve.

[@photo-wizard]

Thanks for the video. I was playing around with the test version a bit. IMO Iris is the best model when enhancing video with people in it. I tested this model with "Input Condition" set to medium and quite aggressive settings ("Parameters" set to "Relative to Auto") and I'm impressed what quality I got from old DVDs.I upscaled to full HD (1080p). Sometimes the results were almost like a Blu-ray. But you really need a fast machine. Especially a fast graphics card. Otherwise you have to wait for years until the processing is done ;)

[@marioh5172]

I am interested to learn on improving very bad interlaced sources. Here the result is even worse than the original whatever I try.

[@DragonKingGaav]

I was *JUST* looking at Topaz Labs Video AI yesterday!!!

[@Just_Haider_]

I have a Ryzen 5 3600 gtx 1080 ti and a 2 minute video, 720p 30 fps, converting to 4k60fps, takes 1 hour, and cpu temperature is 80 celsius, graphics card is at 70 celsius. I had to open up the case/ take the side window off my computer to let the heat out more cuz cpu was at 90 celsius.

[@truthwillout2371]

You need RTX. It's an AI application.

[@user-hb9fp4vs2f]

@Just_Haider_ They don't tell you that til it's too late. This dude only does super short clips so it looks fast.

[@PunxTV123]

my rtx 3060 12gb is too slow for this :(.. 10 mins video takes 3 hours to process

[@truthwillout2371]

You've not got it set up right. That's definitely not correct.

[@sigsauer9439]

@@truthwillout2371what’s the right way to set it up

[@nightmahershadows]

The software requires at a minimum 16 GB, 4GB of V RAM but there new version is horrible because it requires 6GB of VRAM.

[@user-hb9fp4vs2f]

It could take days and weeks if your files are bigger and longer.

[@zZiL341yRj736]

Jesus! You got your settings correct. I have a 3.5 hours video and it takes only 4.5 hours, from 480p to 1080p. Proteus MQ.

[@MelvinDlaCruz]

I have a question, what produces the best quality? Upscaling from 1080 to 4k or scaling 30fps to 60fps in 4k? Which takes longer to render?

[@user-hb9fp4vs2f]

@MelvinDlaCruz Upscaling from 1080 to 4k takes forever and also gets you the worst result as too high of an upscaling make your 4k file look cartoony. Just apply some enhancement to your 1080 and you'll be fine , but it still takes a long time even if you have a super fast PC with a powerful gpu.

[@MelvinDlaCruz]

@@user-hb9fp4vs2f dannnnn so this is in other words waste of time, I put the other day 2 min to render and say will take 15 hour, I say whatssss, I stop and say noppp.

[@Finite-Tuning]

I love this program, been using it for years now. It can't pull miracles out of thin air, but it sure looks like it sometimes. I do a lot of upscaling movies and TV shows, this works great most of the time and really enhances the detail while removing the noise. I have 'The Shining' in 4k, but still ran it through Video AI to clean up the noise they left in the transfer. The Shining has never looked so clean and clear! Cheers 🍻

[@danbuckley141]

That's film grain not noise. It was shot on film and it's supposed to be there.

[@Finite-Tuning]

@@danbuckley141: Noise of any kind is still noise and it's never "supposed" to be there! That's why I remove it.

[@danbuckley141]

​@@Finite-Tuning ​Film is made up of grain, it is how it creates an image. There is no film without grain. Film converted to digital will have grain, it's part of the image. You may not like it and you are free to remove it on your own but it should always remain at some level when a film is released in a digital format.

[@DroneStories]

The best solution for video. For best results (the total time ...) you need the newest cards, supporting avx. Unfortunately for Mac users, the program is more "friendly " with PC users....

[@jer2xjim]

Nice work. Thanks much.

[@Printondemandjourney]

Please, can anyone recommend which PC best to use with this software? Or for video editing. Thank you in advance.

[@mayday6880]

Best choice is AMD flagship Ryzen9 7950X3D, but saving money you can take cheaper one Ryzen7 7800X3D. Graphic Card is more important, as faster as better, but that can be very expensive! Choose Nvidia GraphicCard not AMD because it's a AI application. I have a RTX 470 and I think it's a good compromise between cost and benefit.

[@sigsauer9439]

@@mayday6880bro i have a RTX2060 and it takes like 2 hours to upload a 10 sec clip, any help?

[@user-hb9fp4vs2f]

It doesn't matter how powerful or expensive your PC is, its still going to take many hours, days and even weeks to export. This guy is just doing super short couple second clips so its very misleading. Get ready to be broke from building a custome PC and waste alot of your time. Also, after you pay for the program even the latest version. It still don't work cuz they were holding out on you. All the models that make the program works are not in the file you paid for. If you dont connect to the web and go search for the models, nothing works. If you make any adjustments to enhence your work like whats been demonstrated in this video, it crashes, gives you an error and need to connect to the web to download the correct models for what you're asking it to do. It's like you bought an expensive car and they kept the key unless you go back and prove you're the owner and allow them to spy on you in order for it to work. If you thought the upcoming microsoft RECALL where microsoft takes screenshots of everything you do every 5 sec was bad, this video ai program already done a ton of screen shots of what you're doing waiting to be upload back to their server. So you better hide your stash of gay porn. But to be fair, Topaz isn't the only one wanting to spy on you. Adobe and Almost all the APs on your phones and PC does it too especially microsoft, google and apple that makes it standard on the device you overpaid for. Topaz is just following what the industry is doing instead of doing the right thing by not following the industry.

[@mikkoleivonen2905]

Nonsense. The time being wasted is reading your post. Bought this app, coverting old videos, incredible and fast enough for me.

[@user-hb9fp4vs2f]

@mikkoleivonen2905 You is a LIAR, Ha ha!!! Old videos is where you waste your time waiting for the program to do it's thing. Your weak PC probably have a meltdown before you get any results.

[@user-hb9fp4vs2f]

@mikkoleivonen2905 Obviously You're using it wrong. Converting just makes your file super huge but your video still looks like the krappy original. No enhancements were done, that's why its fast. You got fooled. Even on a weak laptop it don't take long to convert.

[@DanOhPhotography]

Perhaps video AI is good for upscaling, but is a terrible product for getting rid of noise and sharpening the video. I returned it unfortunately to my disappointment.

[@mayday6880]

yes they should spend much more energy into good denoise, NYX V1&V2 models are not really good.

[@mayday6880]

They launched model "NYX3" for denoise, which is better now.

HOW LONG DID YOU WAIT! WHY dont you people TELL us how LONG. Help the autists please.
