@@la-thekid Wrong. His point is factually wrong and the suggestion is unnecessary since it's a 9 minute video. My God!

AWESOME! FREE video enhancement?! between this tech, and AI "unmixing" music software, we have really powerful new content tools within the reach of anyone.
You're presentation is par excellent, superb, straight to the point. If you were American this clip would've been 30 minutes long. I think I might go for Topaz. I want to upscale and remaster the movie Superman 1978 to 4k and at least 60FPS...make it look sweeeeet. And then would look to do same with others and home made videos. Any advice?
AVCLabs can go higher than 4k if you set a custom resolution. I also like it for the fact it's the only software on this list with a Mac version. However, it's Intel only. So if you're using a Mac Silicon with a Metal chip like I do, the processing time is gonna take forever. Hope they fix this soon. Btw. Has this top 5 list changed for you since you made this video, or is this still the top 5 best ai video enhancers in your opinion?
VHS is the worse format ever put on the market. If your video tapes are heavily blurred and heavily grainy there is no AI software that will save them.
@@blu3collar949 they can be saved, but you’re absolutely right that upscaling them is never going to bring them up to HD or 4K standard. Upscaling is only worth it if used subtly. In most cases it is totally over cooked and just hurts my eyes.
In reality, you’ll probably need multiple tools, especially if you work with a variety of footage types. I’ve been working on the Super Mario Bros Super Show, and since it’s a hybrid live action/animated show, I’ve used Topaz for the live action and a custom ESRGAN model for the animated parts.
Have you completed this and can you upload to internet archive or somewhere I can download your enhanced versions. I have the original quality but would love enhanced
If you're looking for high-quality animation upscaling, Nero AI Video Upscaler is exceptional. I've tested it myself, and Nero AI excels at upscaling animation to 4K. Better than Topaz.
Why don't broadcasters upscale their own content ? Instead of forcing our tvs to do a good or terrible job of it to the point of not wanting to watch their channels anymore 🤔
Great quick overview. I like birding and want to get more into videoing short clips of bird behaviour (say 10 second clips or 5 to 10 mins of footage and and cut usable clips out of that) so I will need to denoise low light high iso, low res, stabilise shaky shots and need slow-mo at 4k 120p/240p. I am aware of Topaz but its pricey for a retired amateur. What would you recommend?
Does the Topaz have a way to "lighten" dark videos as well as make them more clear or de-blurred? Also, is it hard to learn? I tried a free trial of it and don't think I was quite understanding it. Here's the main type of project I'll be working on. SO tell me if you think my best bet is Topaz or Hitpaw.....I shot a lot of video of my late friend and his bands during the80's and 90's. Usually in small dark clubs. Naturally I want to 'clear' them up, and lighten them a little. I have a pretty fast cpu now. So which one do you think would be better in my particular circumstance? And also consider the learning curve. Thanks ever so much for any advise you can give me.
Yes, although I don't know if I'd use another video editor for contrast/brightness settings. I might actually. Most platforms have somewhat of a learning curve, although I don't think Topaz is particularly difficult. A few hours max should get you where you need to be. What was it you had difficulty with in the free trial?
@@trustranker I'm not sure. It's been a little while since I tried it. But I think I just couldn't get it to work. I'd load my footage but couldn't seem to get it much beyond that point. Thanks.
That software is trash. I bought that membership first which I really regretted it. There was no refund & it was while I discovered Topaz. Also HitPaw upscaling duration is extremely slow even on small clips. I'm using Topaz now & it's the real deal.
Thanks for watching my video on the Best AI Video Upscaling Software - Questions below!
no Hitpaw? a few sites rate it near top

It says 5 products in large caps lettering in the thumbnail and title.
He actually has chapters, he just didnt do it right. the first chapter needs to be tagged at 0:00 for TH-cam to auto-recognize it.
@@trustranker that maybe so but it’s still a valid comment and suggestion.

Thanks for this, looking to up to upscale some old family vhs tapes my wife found at her mom's house!
Thank you for sharing. I have tried these software, such as DVDFab video enhancer ai. It helps me get those low definition, old discs back to work.
Helpful video. Thanks for sharing. Best.
nice recommendations list, i will definitely try Video2x
Thanks. It's very straight-forward and helpful.
What might you suggest for old VHS poor quality video footage? Thanks

Appreciate the video! I’ve seen Nero AI Video Upscaler around but haven’t used it-wondering if it’s any good.
You created a really nice video. Will you possibly test Nero AI Video Upscaler? How about comparing it to the tools you mentioned?
That’s a lot of facts. So how do they compare..
DaVince Resolve ? I already have it!

Btw. Has this top 5 list changed for you since you made this video, or is this still the top 5 best ai video enhancers in your opinion?
Which is the most affordable an easy to use?
Video2x is free
Downloaded the Video2X exe but did not seem to have a Mac version??
You show a video about upscaling to 4k/8k resolution in a 1080p video, which has also been further compressed by TH-cam 😏
was this video upscaled?
Thank you
Cheers. Got me a truck load of VHS tapes to archive.
Good luck trying to make those look like 4K. #nevergonnahappen
@@cs0rpc 480i to 4k.. Santa is real.
@@8bit711 give an example that isn’t blatantly an upscale?

Better off getting a Mirrorless camera to not worry about the high ISO noise and a cheap tripod for the shakiness
