chaiNNer VS HAT

It is like Comfy UI Jr. but much easier to navigate. Huge amount of useful features, and you can connect it to the WebUI. I highly recommend checking it out: https://github.com/chaiNNer-org/chaiNNer

For the video it turned out a bit too "hairy" compared to many of the still images (I believe because of the long landscape aspect ratio), but I ran out of time to fiddle. I used the Seed Travel extension for the animation and ChaiNNer with the 4x-Valar upscaler.

While at it, check out ChaiNNer -> https://github.com/chaiNNer-org/chaiNNer

If you want to do more, there's chaiNNer and CupScale. You need to download an AI model to use those. There are a lot of anime/cartoon models out, so pick one that you like from here. (Note: Upscaly doesn't support these custom models.)

For local there's cupscale and chainner

Wrote more here but in my experience the free model HAT (Real_HAT_GAN_SRx4.pth) is the best overall, in terms of faithful reconstruction of the ground truth while also removing noise, compression artifacts, ringing, clipped dynamic range, etc. It maybe smooths out the fine details a bit too much but adding some noise after upscaling helps.

I'd like to add https://github.com/XPixelGroup/HAT but obviously dropping the pth into a folder isn't going to do it. Is it possible to make it work or have to wait for AUTOMATIC1111 to hopefully add it in?
