video2x VS upscayl

Another thing I've been meaning to try, but haven't yet, is hooking up VLC to https://github.com/k4yt3x/video2x/wiki or similar, since, yeah, while DVD quality is pretty decent, for certain genres sometimes I do want a bit more luscious detail.

Upscaling? Yup - but it's going to be local (and slow) https://github.com/k4yt3x/video2x

I've tried https://github.com/k4yt3x/video2x but mostly for anime. The recorded video I tried ended up looking real horror-show, but it was also an ancient 240p video I had hanging around.

You can use video2x to do this (I'd recommend this, as it's free and open source. Works best on animated content imo)

Windows has caused us a lot of issues with Upscayl (https://upscayl.org).

I personally do not use Windows but most of our errors are reported by Windows users where sometimes path parsing is a problem or the drivers mess up vulkan configuration.

That's actually what's written on https://upscayl.org, "From Science Fiction to Reality" haha

that website? No, I just used upscayl with the Digital Art preset

Upscayl, I've used it before, it's great

You can use Upscayl on pc and SuperImage on android to enhance your image so you don't have to find the hd version, both the applications uses you device's gpu to enhance your image.

might as well just run upscayl locally then. https://github.com/upscayl/upscayl

Instead of finding images that are already FullHD, I've found an open source software for image upscaling which seems to work very well with digital art/styles similar to something like Studio Ghibli, which is the style as was going for, so works great for me!

Considering a 4080RTX for AI tools performance in the future, noticed a big performance gap in upscayl, while using a rtx card vs non rtx https://github.com/upscayl/upscayl

Here is what I used: https://github.com/upscayl/upscayl
