Gigapixel v5.5.2

Why is it downloading optimised models for an image when it has already downloaded the models for the same mode in a previous instance? And then redownloads them if the output scale is changed? I often resample multiple images (in different modes) and this is now unusable. Wish I hadn’t opted for another year’s upgrades.

There is truth in what you say. However there is often a point release just few days after official release of new version. This is becoming a norm. In happened with latest, sharpen, de noise, video enhance and probably will happen with gigapixel. So if statistically there are only few users on forums complaining and many users are fine, why would there be need for these additional releases just days after initial release?

“Deep Prime can either be turned on or off, there is nothing to adjust.”

There is far more to adjust than with Topaz. You just don’t know how. So please stop trolling.

Done. Thanks!

You can use this build in the meantime until we push the fix to the release version:

Hi Hitchcock,

Can you try this version and let me know if it works for you? Thanks! We’re unable to reliably replicate this on our Mojave and High Sierra machines so need to test the fix with affected users.

There’s three different models depending on the scale you choose (1x, 2x, 4x) for each model type. Once they’re downloaded they won’t need to download again.

6x is no more available like in the old release?

It never was to be honest. I can’t speak on it too much as its protected IP but the engine update in this version has allowed us to try a few new things with our models that should get rid of the strict model scales.

I hope so, because 4x is not sufficient for me, for my Neural Style Transfer images, I need at least 5x or more.

I re downloaded Gigapixel AI 5.5 from this link, and have the same results. I can open the software and it seems to work fine, but if I start to try the other modules or make changes to the Auto settings, the software quits. Trying it out as stand alone, I haven’t used it as a plugin. Mac OS Mojave.

Taylor, I just tried this Beta version on my 2017 iMac 27" running High Sierra, and it worked! There was no crashing at all. I tried the new Low Compression on an older jpg and it came out nicely. Also, I used a raw file and cropped it then did a 2x on the Standard, and there wasn’t a crash either. Thanks so much!

Hi Taylor the Beta version works on my Mac Mojave . But now only with a watermark , unless I buy it : But I own Giga Pixel already . ( Do not want to pay twice for it ) So what now

@taylor.bishop I believe these FP16 OpenVINO models were accidentally left out from being uploaded to the server:

It installed and did not crash on the first few attempts. I will continue to test.
How will I know when the final version is available?

Hitchcock, when saving the image there was a box that popped up about the Watermark, but it also had a way to LogIn, so I just logged in and saved the image as usual.

Hmm, looks like they are there for fp32. For Video Enhance AI, OpenVINO uses only fp16, which is why I thought they would be fp16 for Gigapixel as well. But I guess for Gigapixel they have to use fp32?

Again, check the .json… does it specify fp16 or fp32 for OpenVINO, or both? All of those URLs work if you change fp16 to fp32.

If you are in Ps you can do an easy, accurate crop in the Ps layer after using the GAI plugin. Or, you can crop in Ps prior to entering the GAI plugin.

There is no option to do that with the standalone, so it must be more self-contained.

I actually found them in the json files originally, otherwise I wouldn’t have guessed both openvino and coreml have fp16 & fp32 models.

These are the only fp16 models present in the server atm, and that’s what prompted me to think that the others were missing:
