Ooo, I can’t wait, the motion blur removal model is a game changer for me, both the apollo and blur removal models works brilliantly together! Thanks for the quick fix! Now I can run some jobs to test this bad boy!

I get an immediate error when trying to double the frame rate of any 4k video (Chronos fast, no other processing options selected). This was not an issue on previous releases. 1080p and lower however seems to process without issue. Hardware is GTX 1070 / Win11.

Thanks for the update. Is the Apollo AI currently able to recognize and delete duplicate frames? If not, is that one of the future goals?

That would be amazing, if devs did that - many game playthrough videos recorded beforehand have frozen frames (sometimes a lot of concurrent double frames, which looks like stuttering video later).

Am I correct in assuming the “Win All” covers the RTX 40 series?

The grain is sometimes too filled, which makes it unusable, it’s quite funny haha. Adding noise also doesn’t work.

I’m having an issue where the settings I choose for either Manual or Relative to Auto on Proteus are not being respected. They don’t appear to change anything. (RTX 30 Series user here)

EDIT: After more testing it appears that the settings only take affect when I change models to something else and then back again

EDIT2: That method only appears to work for Relative to Auto. Manual settings still just don’t work

The speedup is incredible, 300% with 360p destroyed D&D cartoon upscaled to 1080p with Proteus model and RTX 3090. Around 4.6fps before, 14fps now - wow!
Though, I noticed, that manual settings for the model (after pressing Estimate) don’t work, and VEAI thinks all the values are still 0 (probably).

Now testing with relative settings. :slight_smile:
Edit: Relative settings seem to be working, at least like Auto ones. Is there a possibility to peek on the Proteus parameter values while the processing goes on? :slight_smile:

Windows 10, RTX2060, can load a video but cannot see it and the settings do not show the file info. The preview button shows “Back to input”, but you can’t select it. So I can’t even load a video to test.

Yes, it was a clean install.

Grain? Not certain what you mean. Could you define it?

14

Change your default preset back to none. It appears previous presets are not working, probably due to the new grain settings

Running manual settings on Proteus and it seems to be making the video quality worse - the deblur seems to be working but the resultant image shows a lot of blockiness/poor quality.

Changing to relative to auto settings seems to work as intended.

Very close, but still a miss for me with this release!

EDIT: Card is an RTX A4000 with 528.02 Studio Drivers.

Must be a very short video. :cowboy_hat_face:

Oh, I see. They put the two grain controls back in…

I’d be interested to hear what kind of performance you are getting on 720p to 1440p and 1080p to 2160p upscales using Artemis…

This is shockingly fast for my videos. RTX 3060 Ti. Input file 720x400 23.97fp/s. Output 1280x712 23.97fp/s. Processing speed 22.5 fp/s using Proteus Auto.
