We have another beta available for your testing. This will be released on Tuesday along with the Iris model, so please let us know of any issues you may have.
Recover original detail disabled for interlaced videos
Recover original detail slider works correctly for proteus v3
Rolled back NVEnc to v12.0.16
Older enhancement presets work correctly
Video should load correctly if default preset is set in preferences
If recover original detail is changed then upscaling no longer resets to 20
Misc updates
Known Issues:
HEVC Main 10 Nvidia GPU encoded videos not playable on VLC 3.x, Use VLC 4.0 from the nightly builds
Videos with mismatched metadata and streams will display incorrect duration
Frame number preview length may shorten on app restart
Recover Original Detail
Purpose of this slider is to retain details from original source if the modelâs output is overly smoothed
It adds the source texture details to the modelâs output to bring back the original details
Lower value might make the output overly smooth and a higher value will also bring in source noise, compression artifacts, etc.
Be careful when adding source noise as this might also show up on output if recover original detail is used
Please look at the tooltip and let us know if the functionality of the slider is understandable from the name and the tooltip
Enhancement model - Iris
Primary aim of the model is to improve human faces
This model is also designed to enhance low- to medium-quality video, particularly, with noise and compression artifacts. The model tends to lose details on high-quality videos
This model is trained to work on all three categories - progressive, interlaced, interlaced progressive - but the main target is progressive videos
Since the model has significant differences from the Proteus model in terms of aim, scope, and performance, we have decided to give it a completely new name
Please test the model and give us your opinion.
Thank you for testing

Iâm sad about this⊠Iâve done some tests on interlaced video with Iris model + original detail recovery⊠and got very good results.
I hope this problem will be fixed with the next releases.
The preview seems to run fine except that the input and output frame are different frames, but this scene with a TV footage within a movie looks funny, doesnât it? Maybe I should try to increase the ârecovor original detailsâ a bit.
Most likely they put exaggerated scan lines on the âTV footageâ to make it look like TV, in this case video AI is just enhancing them even more, I wouldnât expect different results.
Still unable to get any preview frames when doing actual exports
The temp file is 0 byte throughout the whole process and I only got the first 2 minutes when the whole video was done processing
As much as I love Iris, there is too much dehalo, even when itâs set to zero in manual settings. This seems to be more problematic with some videos, and less so with others.
It seems to be all NVENC output that wonât play on VLC - both the built in Nvidia H265 output profiles, as well as the H264 one, and the custom H265 one I have been using ever since custom encoders were enabled - all produce output unplayable on VLC.
With the H264 one the first 2 or 3 seconds of video never plays or looks corrupted. With H265 You see maybe 2 or 3 random frames, while the audio continues to play.
I tried the nightly build of VLC 4 and it wasnât a stellar result, the video barely played but was laggy, looked corrupted and audio was not synced, so not really a solution.
If this canât be fixed in time for the big release tomorrow then hopefully it can by next week as VLC is my go-to media player and thereâs no point in producing output that may or not play in the future.
I think @gregory.maddra aka Bloxgate the ffmpeg build master may need to put eyes on this as well
Now it happened again: The preview went either stuck completely or was heavily delayed. When I stop and restart the processing it not necessarily happens at the same frame.
All previous reported issues from the last Beta still present. The morphing of the images still makes this unusable for anything than strict testing.
On a side note, this is the first time I now have to sideload multiple versions of Topaz V3. However, even with copying and relocating the model folder, the separately loaded version of V3 wonât process anything and just errors out requesting contact with support. Can you explain how I side load now with these newer versions? Currently I have to just constantly uninstall and reinstall the older version to actually use it.
Artemis LQ v.10 still looks so good that I would love to see it as an own Artemis mode with an own name in a final release again. Maybe named âArtemis refined detailsâ.
Anyway by using the mentioned mode I ran into the black box issue again which I suffer from for so long now occasionally. I put source file and log files to the drop box. GPU was set to default power use when it happened.
