When will the sensible Auto Bandwidth be restored? I don’t know whether it was using AI to approximate or was just a default compromise, but it offered the best compression with near magical quality. Usually within 10-20% both up or usually down, capacity wise.
As it stands, Medium offers such massive bandwidth compression, that I cannot believe it offers the same level of quality and High is a redundancy nightmare bloating the sizes to over twice as much for no discernable difference.
Artemis High Quality is the best AI model for both FHD and UHD Blu-Rays, both to 4K and 8K and I recommend it to anyone whom wants this program to enrich their movies and series collection like I have.
Until AUTO is returned, I see no reason to renew my license ever again, even if Artemis somehow gets a new update after 2 years of stagnation.
As far as I know, this is the last patch containing the Auto Bandwidth function and the quickest: Topaz Video AI v3.2.2. Any version beyond it adds at least a full hour to the wait times for no reason whatsoever. Tested on both an RTX 3080 Ti and an RTX 4090.
Thank you for making this program. It was perfect even after you added +1 hour to wait times, because you soon also added audio conversion to AC3, but removing that perfectly balanced Auto Bandwidth function completely ruined this software for me past 3.2.2.
