Topaz Video AI 4.1.2 macOS
Time-aware video quality enhancement. Video Enhance AI uses information from multiple frames to achieve high-end results for video upscaling, denoising, deinterlacing, and restoration. Improving the quality of videos is substantially more complex than photos because of motion-related issues like flickering, blockiness, and wavy artifacts. To solve this issue, Video Enhance AI looks at surrounding frames to improve resolution and reduce motion artifacts for natural results.
Upscaling
Upscale video resolution with detail gathered from multiple frames. Our video upscaler can convert SD to HD and HD to 4k or 8k while adding crisp and natural video details.
Denoising
Remove noise and grain while recovering real detail in your videos. Minimize flickering and other temporal artifacts caused by frame-by-frame denoising approaches.
Deinterlacing
Use deep learning to convert interlaced videos to progressive while preserving image definition. Significantly reduces visual artifacts compared to traditional deinterlacing.
Restoration
Naturally restore old videos without adding visual artifacts. Restore realistic details and remove compression artifacts from old or degraded sources.
Frame rate conversion for 2021
Introduced in v2.3, the Chronos AI model uses deep learning to increase video frame rate without artifacts. Existing methods like frame blending and optical flow are decades old and produce inconsistent and unnatural results. Video Enhance AI generates new frames that are often indistinguishable from frames captured in-camera, enhancing videos with more natural results.
Increase video frame rate (24 to 60 FPS, 30 to 60 FPS)
To increase your video’s frame rate, you’ll need to generate new frames between your video’s existing frames. The existing ways to do this (frame blending, optical flow) often look unnatural and jittery especially with moving backgrounds. Video Enhance AI uses a new approach based on machine learning to “predict” the best intermediate frame between existing ones, which gives you much better results with a wider variety of material.
Create a smooth slow-motion effect
When you create a slow motion effect, it’s even more important that you generate new frames without stuttering or motion artifacts. Video Enhance AI creates much more natural slow motion results compared to traditional time interpolation.
Fewer motion artifacts
Other video upscaling techniques often create a “shimmering” or “flickering” effect from different processing in adjacent frames. VEAI is trained to significantly reduce such artifacts.
Recover video details
VEAI has been trained to inject real details into your videos, derived from the additional information in multiple adjacent frames, allowing us to deliver superior video enhancement.
Get more natural results
Traditional upscaling often causes artifacts. While visual artifacts do exist in VEAI too, they’re mitigated by information derived from multiple frames.
Trained on videos
VEAI was trained exclusively on video clips instead of still images. (The improved results are worth the increased effort to gather the dataset!)
Optimized for your hardware
We work directly with different hardware manufacturers to ensure the software works as fast as possible on your machine.
Convenient workflow
Easily convert and combine multiple videos from SD to HD, HD to 4k, and much more. Includes export presets and batch processing.
Flexible import / export
Supports common video file types and image sequence as input, and export directly to mp4, mov, or image sequence.
Batch processing
Leave Video Enhance AI running overnight with your videos queued up, and come back in the morning to enhanced footage.
Compatibility: macOS 10.12 or later.

Works 100%

Ok, does THIS version work?
I do NOT mean if it can install, they all do.
But if the presets actually download when it is installed so it can be USED.
None of the versions since 4.0 of this one works at all.

Tested and working fine.
It takes about two hours to process a 45 min video if you use enhancement.

Tested yes and works extremely well!
I don’t know what’s the upgrade but difference is not big, but huge!
I am upgrading from V4.0. I have a 1080p 45 mins video with V4.0 needed (with the same pc, Macbook Air M1 16 GB ram) around 20 hours, but now with V 4.1.2 it needs around 9 hours! (Same settings, upgrading to 4K plus Proteus Enchancement)

I followed all the steps but it didn’t work for me, it still has the watermark after exporting.

nvm i uninstalled and tried again and it works perfectly now, didn’t do anything differently besides closing the “move to application pop up”. Anyways thanks man.

I can’t seem to make it work. Quick question. I’m using little snitch to stop outgoing connections as indicated but then how is it supposed to download the models if the outgoing connections are blocked ?
