After a restart, I was able to run the enhancement normally. I have also decided to generate TIFF files and run ffmpeg to make the final video afterward, this works quite well.

Thank you for this update! I have started using Starlight Precise 2.5 to upscale AI generated footage and it does an awesome job on enhancing the faces. However (unrelated to SLP), since the update I need to reenter my login and password each time I open the Topaz Video app. Is this a known bug ?
I am hoping for future versions that Topaz will work on an updated version of Themis deblur and stabilization algorithms to perform even better. Using SLP to āclean upā the artifacts from Themis deblur seems to be working well, but there is definitely room for improvement on that front.
Devs, any beta/any releases is coming? Canāt wait :c

yes, me too hahaha
Iām using a Mac Studio M2 which passes the setup criteria for using Starlight Precise. The model downloads (slowly). I then try to test Starlight Precise on a few seconds of a video. In the export window I get the status message ālocating model,ā then this changes to āresume,ā then nothing happens after leaving the process for hours. Is this model working for Mac OS? I see others have been able to use SP. Any recommendations to resolve this? Quite disappointed.
I have a Mac Studio M4 Max 64 GB ram using Tahoe 26.5 and Starlight Precise works fine for me although slowly at .1 fps. This is for a 2048 x 1536 sized video. If you arenāt using Tahoe 26.5 try upgrading to it and see if that helps.
Iām finding Starlight Precise 2.5 unusable as every second or so it seems to re-analyze the imagery as if it had no memory of the preceding frames, causing a shift in how everything looks. Itās a constant beat around every second. Do others not experience this?
There are pretty much no parameters to control what it does from what I see so I donāt see how to get around this.

Everyone running SLP is currently experiencing this problem!
Ah really?! Just since v2.5?
I think v2.5 is the only one weāve had access to. If not, people have pointed out this exact issue on whatever version was available first too.
Thanks, I upgraded to latest OS, and still no joy. I cleared preferences and relaunched app, and it wants to download SP again! Iām not convinced itās installing the model which is why it never has worked. I may have to do a clean reinstall of the app.
Maybe itās because it isnāt using that much memory? My 32gb card is hungry. I want to feed it!
No. Not on the Mac.
