Starlight HQ and architecture.

The input is good, 720x576 50i, deinterlaced in Hybrid to 768x576 50p.

2x upscale, Proteus Natural for a reference:

Not so bad, considering fast speed.

Starlight HQ:

Ugh. Look at the diagonal lines and the windows. It’s like oversharpened old Proteus with artefacts.

Starlight Mini:

Now that’s really good. We can see even a texture on the windows drapes.

I’m out with Starlight HQ. I don’t see where it could be useful.
