Temporal stability / flickering issue with Proteus

Hey, I’ve just purchased the app and am experiencing heavy stability issues when upscaling a CG animation to from 720 to 4k using Proteus auto settings on latest version.

Not getting any better results by changing export encoder. Original is exported from Resolve as .mov uncompressed 8 bit RGB.
Changing to a different algorithm like Gaia CG upscaled to 4k works but Proteus delivers far better upscaling.

I want to say it’s a temporal issue because it looks like it’s jumping between different settings every 2-3 frames in the same pattern.

It happens both with raw animation 720 → 4k, and a 720p that I’ve passed through Gaia CG with original resolution.

EDIT: Happens when importing a H264 encoded .mov too

That first one is processed with Proteus?
Would you be able to make and share a clip of the original?

Thanks, I had gotten in touch with their support team and received a solution the same day through their beta, just have a few coloring issues but they are working on that.
First video is original exported from Resolve, and 2nd video is Proteus + Gaia CG respectively
