@PhilipAnders, where can i find the link for the paid subscription to see how muc it costs; I am using the free windows version but i cannot use batch option.
Guys, it may be free, but please consider donating a dollar or two (whatever you can afford) to the project. So many AI projects are charging buckets for very limited use of something that doesn't even work that well. This stuff is amazing, free, and is multi-platform.

I've been using Upscayl for a while and it does a great job upscaling art, and even better, this app doesn't eat all of your VRAM to do its job (you need like 20GB VRAM to upscale 8x 16x on SD). The only issues I have are it doesn't save on the chosen output folder (1st time works then it start saving on same original folder/random folders) and it's still glitchy with the zoom in been really slow.
@PhilipAnders My question is what is the best Upscaler i know you made a video and gigapixel ( if i remember correctly was the best ) is there a new list? or is this even better than gigapixel ( cost aside ) :)
what i like about this one is, it actually runs well on an AMD gpu. Not many AI based things do. And I don't recall it downloading gigs of stuff either. Still wondering how I get extra models for It.
I really hope this will solve my problem. All my Designs are 96 dpi and I can't use them for any POD... So far. Thank you for giving me hope. I will try this immediately after homecoming this evening.
Thank you Philip! I neeeeded this! My problem, as a newer Etsy seller, is I don't know the proper resolution and size needed for different items. i.e. posters, mugs, note cards, printables etc. Do you have a video about this already? Thank you again!!
Great software.thanks. is it possible to upscale the same picture ( after being upscaled) to generate poster size pictures or does the result gets worse?
Would give this a go if it wasn't so hard to get working. Tells me to turn off the ad blocker. I do that, refresh page. Still tells me to turn off ad blockers. Then I see there's extra instructions down below to make it work for Firefox that aren't very clear, etc, etc.
apparently u dont have to save the fill, it does it after scaling. finding the saved file can be a chore tho. Fantastic quality, actualy better than the original!!
error. please make sure you have vulkan compatible gpu. sadly vulkan does not work with cpu or igpu....euh what does that mean? Are there any work arounds?
When I opened the software - Image scale was up to 4X - I only want my images to be 300 DPI - would 2X or 3X be ok for that? - I don't want my images to be bigger than they need to be.
Doesn't work with Intel Iris Pro GPU on Mac. DECODING ERROR => This image is possibly corrupt or not supported by Upscayl, or your GPU drivers are acting funny (Did you check if your GPU is compatible and drivers are alright?). You could try converting the image into another format and upscaling again. Also make sure that the output path is correct and you have the proper write permissions for the directory. If not, then unfortuantely there's not much we can do to help, sorry.
I would like to know about the result when using realistic portraits of people. As unlike SD(which adds details with each upscale) does this also do the same?
What image viewer do you use to watch the photo in 16k? Don't think I can watch mine on "previewer" (The standard program on Mac) but I don't have Photoshop.
if you're turning it into a vector you can scale to any size in photopea and get 300dpi. Vectorizing works best for digital art, clipart type of designs. Photography doesn't look great if turned into vectors so an upscaler is best
Hmm, this doesn't seem to work for me. I tried batch upscaling 50 images but it took less than a second and the output folder was empty, tried 3 times. Also tried upscaling just one photo and the image disappears, it doesn't seem to save. I use Windows. Maybe I'll try the online version you mentioned.
Actually, I played around with the model in step 2 and it works perfectly on the second option "General Photo Fast Real Esrgan" in case this happens to anyone else. It's super fast as well. So glad I found this Philip, it's a game changer for sure!
can I achieve 300dpi to tshirt print with that software ? I´m lookin for something like that. Please, help me. It´s anoying do that on by one. Canva miss a feature like that to png. My print on demand service do not accept pdf.
Interesting. I may try it but honestly happy with one web based one you mentioned recently even if wait times are longish. I just work on other things while I wait. Thanks for sharing as always. Heidi
obviously. Time depends by your CPU and GPU. If you have a fast computer is fast, if you use ad old PC is extremely low. ps I use it on an old PC , it's slow but very usefully. The software can process an entire folder, slowly but it does (when I sleep!)
Hi, I tried the batch upscaled and I have about 10k images, a lot I know. The upscale has used 24 hours doing some countdow which I assumed is to 100. But now it is at 103😢, what does this mean, that after 24 hours I am literally at number 103 image
@@PhilipAnders I'm testing it right now with a 5 sec sequence, and the GPU is maxed out. Is there a quicker method? Maybe other apps for video upscaling might not work as good, or take just as long.
This would be great if 2x and 3x worked 4x i don't want it makes the file size too big and if u use 2x the output is glitched i have to upscale then resize & batch upscale can only output png...
Thanks for the information. But, Upscayl is not opening on mac. says “Upscayl” cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified. any solution for this problem?
Hi Phillip so I have downloaded Upscayl and when I try to upscale in bulk it says there is a decoding error either due to the image being corrupt or issues with GPU or my driver. I have a MacBook Pro 2016. Any ideas whether my laptop is not compatible with the app? Says I have an Intel Iris Graphics 550 1536 MB. Thank you
I do mostly bird photography and of course, sometimes you just can't get close enough and the bird is very small in the frame. Upscayl does a fantastic job with one minor exception. The images tend to be desaturated. This is easy enough to fix but it can be quite noticeable. Overall, I have found it to be better than Topaz Gigapixel, which have used for the last year or so. Gigapixel tends to oversharpen the output. Think I have found a new tool and thank you for your video.
@@scottsimmons6814 Wish I could post pictures here. Just did one real quick. Small bird sitting on a wire. Cropped the original from 5184x3888 to 1019x1528. Only edit was denoise. Ran through Upscayl to blow up 4x. Raised shadows and gave is a bit more saturation and then dropped it to 2400x1600, which is the size I usually use when posting online. The first crop and the Uscayl version are almost identical to my old eyes.
I use it and I'm very glad I found it about a month ago. After first upgrade of Upscayl, the 2x and 3x upscaling does not work. It completely ruins the image. Still, 4x upscaling works great. The problem with 4x upscaling is that it sometimes create images larger than 25 MB which can not be imported to Canva, where I do following steps for tumbler wraps. I need to learn Photoshop :) There is a small problem with upscaling of very detailed images. I just found today that one very detailed flowers image looked worse after upscaling. So I used another free upscaler for 2x upscale.
Hi, canyou help me - program doesn`t work to me . Every time I try to upscale midjourney image I receive a message " Decoding error and the image is not supported (I use PNG files ) Any ideas ? thanks
Apparently this has now become a paid tool at least for for mac users (still free on windows) - you can use dgb.lol/ as a free web based alternative
dgb has become so busy it takes forever to upscale unfortunately

Hey there! Is the 100+ Midjourney graphics bundle a "How to do it" tutorial(s)?
thank you so much for this video, im trying to use it right now but when i click on my photos folder nothing is there? can you help please
How do you download the upscaled image once completed?
I've been using Upscayl for a while and it does a great job upscaling art, and even better, this app doesn't eat all of your VRAM to do its job (you need like 20GB VRAM to upscale 8x 16x on SD).

Were you able to solve this problem? When I upgrade multiple images, they are saved in a random folder, which wastes a lot of time.
@@maa-v5m on my pc if you do NOT change the "default image path" at all it saves them to the same folder i get the originals from.
Good Tutorial Philp, Can you go into more detail on the settings, lots of stuff you did not cover
Finally! Been looking so long for this. Great!
Glad I could help!
For printing at what point would you define 300ppi? Before or after Upscayl?
What is the best option to upscale old photos? Watching the end comparison looks like real esrgan 16x is awesome but the file size is huge too..
Thanks this helped a lot with making my coloring books!
Glad I could help!
Thanks Philip! You are so good at this discipline;) Your tips are absolutely amazing.
Watched and left. Came back to thank you from the bottom of my heart. Liked and subscribed. ❤
Literally searching for bulk upscaler whole day... :)
Incredible app! Thank you for pointing it out to me.
Any time! Happy to help!
That's exactly what I was looking! Upscaling to 16x. Thank you so much for this informational video🙏
My pleasure!

So is this the first step in editing the quality prior to resizing if your selling digital wall art
tHANKS
Yes you can either use an upscaler like this or a vectorizer
Why does it tell me error processing and coverting the image?
I must leave a comment, thanks for the video, thanks for going straight to the point. just thank you
Laptop received for this software mentions everything of specifications for upsceyl
Thank you Philip! I neeeeded this! My problem, as a newer Etsy seller, is I don't know the proper resolution and size needed for different items. i.e. posters, mugs, note cards, printables etc. Do you have a video about this already? Thank you again!!
your print provider should have the needed design dimensions in pixels listed for each product, just check under design info or similar
Great software.thanks. is it possible to upscale the same picture ( after being upscaled) to generate poster size pictures or does the result gets worse?
Great Video! Thank you so much Philip!

error. please make sure you have vulkan compatible gpu. sadly vulkan does not work with cpu or igpu....euh what does that mean? Are there any work arounds?
Hi can you are reccomend anywhere to remove the background for free without losing the dpi count?
When I opened the software - Image scale was up to 4X - I only want my images to be 300 DPI - would 2X or 3X be ok for that? - I don't want my images to be bigger than they need to be.
That's what i looking for,thank you so much.❤ And how to enlarge bulk images to save times?
This is super cool! Thanks Philip!

if you're turning it into a vector you can scale to any size in photopea and get 300dpi. Vectorizing works best for digital art, clipart type of designs. Photography doesn't look great if turned into vectors so an upscaler is best
Do you need internet to run this program after it has been installed?
Thanks loads Philip, this is a fab local install 🙌👌Really appreciate your content !!
Happy to help!
Thank you! I use a free upscaler but the website I use only allows two at a time and it takes forever.
I have been trying to visit the Upscayl homepage, but it always tells me the page cannot be reached. Any reason for this?
This is perfect!

If it's that slow you must either have incredibly large input files or a super slow computer, or both. Maybe an online upscaer would be better
