Microsoft Edge is getting a video upscaler to make blurry old videos look better
Personally, it's not really any better than mpv filters like NIS [0] (Nvidia Image Scaling, which does not use AI but is somehow more sharp than these filters) as well as Anime4k [1] (which does use AI but only in the training phase to create the initial glsl file which then does not use AI inferencing but plain old image filters).
Combine mpv with its yt-dlp [2] and SponsorBlock support [3] and you have a competent way to upscale your own YouTube (and other types of [4]) videos.

New NVIDIA Driver with RTX Video Super Resolution is Now Available!
You might also want to grab the Sponsor block MPV script which will automatically skip/bypass ads.

Happy new year. I was wondering, what cool scripts would you recommend for mpv?
sponsorblock.lua: skip sponsors in yt videos.

Script suggestion post!
acompressor.lua: compressor. blur-edges.lua: fills the black bars on the side of a video with a blurred copy of its edges. createchapter.lua: self-explanatory. crop.lua: crop video in a visual manner. encode.lua: make an extract of the video currently playing using ffmpeg. reload.lua: reloads videos if an online video stops caching. seek-to.lua: go to timestamp. simplehistory.lua: stores whatever you open in a history file. skiptosilence.lua: skip past "previously on...". smartcopypaste_ii.lua: copy/paste links sponsorblock.lua: skip sponsors in yt videos. streamsave.lua: save looped section to a separate file. subit.lua: download subtitles to playing video. uosc.lua: feature-rich minimalist proximity-based ui (my fav!). webm.lua: similar to encode.lua but with more features and no external dependencies. webtorrent-mpv-hook: enable mpv to stream torrents using webtorrent. youtube-quality.lua: change quality of currently playing yt video.

query regarding streaming YT with MPV
It still isn't perfect though. Scripts like mpv-sponsorblock won't work if you play a video this way.
- LPT: Open VLC and drag a youtube link to it. It'll play in VLC (with all the capabilities of VLC), and it'll skip ads.

MPV Submissions + Extension Submissions
I started using SB with the Firefox extension, then eventually moved to FreeTube and then to MPV. I copied my user ID and display name to the MPV script that is responsible for skipping and submitting. When I close MPV and reopen the same video - my segment is skipped. Now, when I go to the extension to check my work - it still shows submissions while I was using the extension, not the ones from MPV. Also, when I open a YT video in the browser that has a segment submitted by me - it doesn't skip. With this one I might need to wait 6 hours (script default time to refresh SB database) or edit the script.
