That's cool. I own VideoProc which has an upscaling function that really improves quality as well. My PC is pretty slow though so it takes overnight to do. If you have a badass gaming computer it would no doubt be much quicker.
I promise this is not a plug for the other thread, but check out my snippet on these types of AI upscales already on DMM. This will only get better and more frequent, and I'm all for it! All those times we've wished our favorite stars and their titles had come out when FHD became normal.

Can you show a screenhot of the vid before and after? The upscale is it in 1080p and can you upscale to 4K?
Correct. Im trying to do one upscale to 4K and it says 700 hr. Once that is done in a month I will go back to 1080.
Is that an installed version of it? I've only seen the web version for images:

How are you doing the video?
waifu2x

Waifu2x-Extension-GUI download | SourceForge.net https://share.google/rhFczJhrDbdDZQqAV and watch the YouTube video above.
is rtx 3060 12gb is enough from 1080p upscale to 4k video? after watching 4k javs, my eyes does not accept 1080p video lol.
But I've seen others uploading:

Length: 120 min(s)
Director: Mamezawa Mametarou
Maker: Honnaka
Quality Video: AI-4K 2160p
Bitrate: 12000kbps – 32000kbps
instead of paying I would like to do it on my own or is there a section here that offers this?

Something doesn't seem right with that (lack of) speed.
I just tried Waifu2x to upscale from 640x480 to 1920x1080 on a RTX 3060 and RTX 3090 (both power limited to 90%). Using the waifu2x-ncnn-vulkan engine.
It took about 4 minutes to write the split frames. After that, on the 3060 it up-scaled ~1.1x real-time and on the 3090 ~2.0x real-time. VRAM use was ~9 GB.
For what this is worth, I will eventually try to simply "remaster" a small clip to test this, but I used to try to upscale things back before I got into AI, and I read something out there that suggested not doing it because (at the time) it would only introduce some additional level of noise in the final image anyway, so just let your hardware do the upscaling. I use a Plex server on my 4K TV, and even now streaming something taken from a DVD at 480p looks decent enough. So, I'm wondering if using AI to at lease enhance (remaster) the image would yield a cleaner looking (aka smoothed out features...a curse mostly) picture so that when viewed on hardware that will do the upscaling for me, it would look just fine?
