Whenever I upscale any low quality video to 4k 60fps, I only get about 6-7fps on average.
My current settings in the video AI is progressive iris and proteus (automatically estimated), with Chronos fast for frame interpolation. Additionally, I have the encoder set to H264 High, with the bitrate set to auto.
Based on what your source is, and they amount of work to upscale to 4K 60fps, I6-7 fps sounds right. You either need a 40 series card, or i9, or both, to get better speed.
I use an M1 Max Macbook and was getting atrocious processing times, but I changed a few settings and went from .3fps to 18fps! I turned off anonymous data collection, changed export quality level from medium to high, and changed export container from mp4 to mov. I suspect there is less processing/compressing being done with these changes. I am starting with a mov file and suspect keeping it as mov cuts off some processing. Not for sure on the reasoning, but it went from stupidly unusable to useful.
Upscaling from HD to 4k, running the 4k upscale @ 4x slow. Works beautifully except the audio clips out after a few minutes. Not an issue. Now testing Upscaling from 4k to 5K (without slowing down the frame rate) but part of the image is fuzzy.
I turn off absolutely everything, including screen saver. Using iMac 2019, i5 3.1ghz, 32gb ram. After the model downloads, let the process run a second time with the internet off. When it works, save it as a preset. 4k to 5k is not as smooth. Thoughts of increasing ram to 64 or 128GB.
13th gen i9, dual 4090s. 192GB of DDR5 processing at 0.7/.08fps. Slow as molasses. Excruciating. Set to upscale 4k to 4k, focus fix and frame interpolation. Set to Use All GPUs, and MutliVideo processing is turned on (Pro Version) Topaz is crawling through the processing. Nearly unusable. It would be faster to reshoot… honestly. Who can wait 2 days for processing? Am I doing something dumb?
