TVEAI 3x.. Presets V1, V2

Why not others opinion?

I believe more people will check it with time.
i referenced your post on Reddit when someone asked for recommended settings on Proteus for his old VHS videos. you might have more external visitors.
I currently exclusively using your Blurey4K preset. found it to be the best for my needs.
i no longer use my own presets :slight_smile:

@TomaszW I got a question for you. I noticed you created on each preset (or at least on some), custom settings both for Proteus & Theia.
when do you use the Proteus and when do you use the Theia? in what cases?

No the presets are entirely made on Proteus, not Theia :slight_smile:

New presets will arrive soon in their new version 2.0

Thanx for providing VHS to HD preset. I have tested it with a VHS .avi capture in 352x480. I have not upscaled to 1080p, but only 2x Upscale. The result was OK but a bit blurry.

Do I have to up Anti-aliase/Deblur a bit more ?

try the ā€œ8mm_to_1080ā€ or the ā€œ8HUltraHDā€ presets, they result in pretty sharp and I found them both being very good for upscaling my lower quality videos (Video 8 files). I also found the VHS to HD preset yields blurry image.

I canā€™t download 8mm presets

I can download them without any problems

Wonā€™t download for me either. Page shows ā€œForbiddenā€.

I could be wrong but that ā€œForbiddenā€ usually means the site is blocking your ISP or country IPā€™s. Iā€™ve send you a PM with the filesā€¦

New update today: 4K Ultra HD V2

what is the main difference between the v1 and v2? where should I expect the change?

Update:
Today is the end of the creation of presets for TVEAI 3x.
There will be no version 3 of the presets, it is not planned. Have fun with version 1 and 2 :slight_smile:

I tested v2 and I love the 8mmto4Kā€¦ it works very good upscaling my 8mm to 1080p.
it is a bit blurry compared to your 8KUltraHD/Bluray4K v1 preset, so I found that by taking the sharpness and Deblur settings of 8KUltraHD/Bluray4K and putting them into the 8mmto4K preset itā€™s a winning preset for my 8mm -to- 1080p upscale.
basically:
Sharpness from 22 I bumped it to 30
DeBlur from 25 I bumped it to 80

I found it produces clean videos and pretty clear. I might reduce a bit the DeBlur on videos where the faces are distort, that way you wonā€™t notice it so much because of the blur padding.

for me the two winning presets that I now only use is 8KUltraHD/Bluray4K v1 & 8mmto4K.
I might combine it to one preset (like i mentioned above - sharpness/DeBlur from 8KUltraHD/Bluray4K incorporated into 8mmto4K ) and only use this one.

any one that has older videos (SD/VHS/8mm, etc.) I urge you to give those a shot as for me, it produced an amazing outcome.

@TomaszW Thank you very much for your work and sharing!!!

Thanks for making this for us but I found it useless because you cant add this to topaz labs and no were do you explain how to add these settings to the software and there is no option I can find to add these settings. Thanks but a waste of time whejn you donā€™t provide the (HOW) to install these settings.

I found this posted on another site in Zip form with a proper explanation, why you would use Json files is beyond me. I had to reach out to customer service, glad I found it on another site.

@ hugedownload
I think you misunderstanding those files. the JSON are there for you to have zero effort to use the presets. it just drag and drop and you have them ready made on your preset list in TVAI UI.
to use the preset all you need to do is copy the files (JSON) to ā€œ%programdata%\Topaz Labs LLC\Topaz Video AI\presetsā€ (i.e. C:\ProgramData\Topaz Labs LLC\Topaz Video AI\presets).
thatā€™s it you good to goā€¦ no need to open the files, read the values, manually configure it, etc. just simple copy pasteā€¦
Hope that was a helpā€¦

P.S. make sure TVAI is not running in the background when you copy the files :slight_smile:
