A High-Quality Real Time Upscaler for Anime Video

Project mention: AI Made These Movies Sharper. Critics Say It Ruined Them. | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-15

I watch AI enhanced movies and/or shows every day when I use Anime4K, a real-time ML upscaler for anime https://github.com/bloc97/Anime4K
If you give shit-tier blurry DVD messes, it turns them into nicer blurry messes.
If you give it the usual bitrate starved streaming quality show, it looks almost as nice as a blueray.
If you give it a blueray... It basically comes out looking exactly the same. I'll usually still add its "darken lines" filter since I'm a fan of strong linework.

Project mention: Are there any video players that allow for real time shaders? | /r/appletv | 2023-09-22

Recently got an AppleTV 4k, and I’m wondering if there’s any video players that allow for shaders? I use MPV on my PC and the quality increases I get from them are massive. The only thing I could find was https://github.com/imxieyi/Anime4KMetal for Anime4k - which would work but I’d have to stream videos over via URL. On PC I use a plex MPV Shim, but i’m not sure if something like that is available.
