Topaz Video AI 6.0

It is Xmas time right? Not April Fools? This has to be a joke. Tried v6 and in my 20+ years experience in TV and film production I have never encountered a program so full of bugs and unnecessary UI elements. The UI is so damn convoluted it completely and utterly wastes my time. It’s so confusing the program itself doesn’t even know what it’s doing anymore. It crashes all the damn time! How the hell did you think this was good enough to release? Why did you think paying customers wanted this extra bloated crap? Everything should be simple, clean and quick. For crying out loud listen to your customers! Me personally, I just want to simply upscale and enhance footage with just a few clicks with the ability to quickly preview minus all the bells and whistles and unnecessary use of system resources. I also expect models to be improved and updated because that’s really what everyone is expecting and paid good money for. Congratulations Topaz, you managed to not only have dug your own grave but also buried yourself and stuck a tombstone on top to finish it off. Back to 5.3.6 for me.
