I just tried. It's basically https://github.com/xinntao/Real-ESRGAN expect OP's program upscales video, frame by frame, and combines those frames into a new video.

Video looks like it's made by AI. Tried on old video - not sure if old or new video looking better. Contours in new video are difderent with each frame lol.

OP did a great job, but overall technology is not there yet. Videos aren't looking good tbh.

Does it configure it's own venv or do I need to to that?

Edit: doesn't look like it. That should be just common practice, Like how oobabooga/SD work. Makes life easier.

What python version?

Edit:

I just downloaded from the releases, giving it a test now

Here we are in 2023 and people still have to ask for venv and which Python versions. I don't understand why these AI devs on these smaller scales seem to be container adverse.

It's very ai-upscaley. I think if there is some extra processing steps, then this could be really good.

Quality was bad because ScaleUp had bitrate problem. Now i fixed that. Results now much better.
