Topaz Video AI 6.0.4

Is there away around the HDR conversion getting some nasty looking grain artifacts? I like adding grain to my edits but it seems to clash with HDR…:confounded::confused:… ??

HDR with no Grain

As for HDR and Grain clashing, I think this is something we can solve by changing the order of filter processing. We will look into some test cases and see what can be done in future updates to improve the combined output

I don’t think it’s working…

made a small change and re-rendered the same spot…

Was this after changing the model setting and clicking “Render 15s” again?

Yes it was

Thank you very much :slight_smile: I’ll try that as soon as I get back from lunch :slight_smile: and send the logs if it’s persistant after creating a new Project. :sunglasses:
