  • β€’Motion-aware upscaling – Preserves fast action and camera pans with fewer motion artifacts.

Pro Tips

  • β€’Start with the highest quality source you have - upscaling works best with clean footage.
  • β€’For videos with heavy compression artifacts, 2x upscale (480pβ†’1080p) often looks better than 4x.
  • β€’Process short clips to test quality before upscaling longer videos.
  • β€’Videos with stable camera and clear subjects upscale better than shaky or blurry footage.
  • β€’Consider the final use case - 4K is overkill for social media but great for large displays.
