Part 1: Improve the Resolution of Old Video with AI Enhancer



*Do you know

By simply turning up the video resolution, the video quality cannot be improved. You can't add extra quality. Simply increasing the video resolution from 720*468 to 3840*2160 is just like copying the blurred pixels from one to four. The converted video file will certainly become much larger in size, but that does not help to improve the video quality. While with the help of an AI video enhancer, AVCLabs Video Enhancer AI, it can automatically enhance the flaw in your video when upscaling the video resolution. Following are the detailed steps:

Step 1:
Download and install.

At first, please download and install the AVCLabs Video Enhancer AI program on your computer. And high-end dedicated graphics cards (NVIDIA GTX 1050 Ti and upper) are recommended strongly for GPU acceleration when processing the videos in high efficiency and saving time. To know more about the system requirement, please refer to the Tech Spec page to get to know the system and hardware requirements of AVCLabs Video Enhancer AI.

Step 2:
Run the program and add source video.

Step 3:
Choose an AI mode and the resolution.

After loading the video files, you could view setting options to enhance your video quality on the main window: AI model, resolution, and upscale size on the right panel of AVCLabs Video Enhancer AI.

AI model: It provides 4 AI models. The faster will get a quick speed and ultra mode will obtain a better quality result. Currently, you can choose Ultra Upscale to improve the video quality to the full extent, Faster Upscale to improve the video quality fast but the processed quality will be a little bit worse than Ultra Upscale's.

Then you can choose the resolution you prefer. Video resolution affects video size, higher resolutions are not always a better choice, so you can consider your end deliverable when choosing a resolution.
