Upscaling and using Proteus.. ending up with doubled framerate (I never touch framerate settings)

Topaz Video AI Bugs and Issues
1

I’m upscaling one of my movies from 720p to 1080p. I started out using Nyx AND Proteus… took around 4 hours. I’ve been upscaling several of my movies and I just so happen to notice that when i took the ProRes created by VideoAi and ran it through Handbrake using h265 NVENC… it was taking along time… I have my defaults all set so it was kinda confusing. This is where i noticed it had the framerate for the movie at 59.940 FPS??? I open the prores with mediaInfo and yeah… 59FPS…
So I cleared out VideoAi and configured it again ( Don’t touch ANY of the framerate options, I ALWAYS leave it as it is). 4 hours later… same thing.
So I try just Proteus… Same thing 59 fps.
I have been upscaling several of my movies… I don’t recall seeing this before. |
Anyone run into this before that knows a workaround?

MediaInfo shows it is mpeg-4 qt, encoding time from 2013 and @ 59.94fps, so then TVAI also does 59.94 with it…but then your TVAI screenshot shows 23.976 fps, is this the same video source? Maybe I don’t understand you question correctly,

When your source is 59.94, you can check for double frames , for example optically with Virtualdub or Avidemux…it seems to me it was deinterlaced by doubling frame rate.

No, the original source is 23.976. tvai is detecting it correctly.
It processes it and produces a 59 fps video. I have not specified any setting dealing with frames, I leave that the same as source. All my videos are from my Blu-rays, nothing interlaced.

This looks like an issue we saw in v5.3.1 where the TBR rate gets set as the frame rate when exporting files, a workaround was to export the video in the MKV container or remux the original video into a mp4 or mov file to bring into the app for processing.

It’s not an mkv

I asked because your first posted screenshot shows a source @59.94fps and is not from Topaz, encoding date 2013 with qt.

The other screenshot is a m4v which is the same as mp4, you can rename it to mp4 or leave it doesen’t matter.

Maybe Header is wrong, this can give you wrong fps, give a try remuxe it to MKV as Kyle wrote

The image above your post shows the “original”. It’s an m4v that I’ve had for years that came from my DVD.
What you are referring to is metadata that got carried over to the file, I have no idea why.
This is from the original .m4v

ok then try remux and import this into tvai, I had already similar fps issues with vids and remuxe mostly solved it.

I used Handbrake and re-encoded it into an mkv using a lossless format.
That did it! TVAI is saving it at the proper framerate! :slight_smile: Thank you!!!

Tip: changing container format to mkv is no re-encode required, you can simply remux with MKV Toolnix

No, I didn’t just change container format :joy:
I re-encoded from h.264 to h.265 using a lossless setting and saved that into an mkv. It wasn’t just a container switch. I wanted to make sure that if anything linked to the original file was causing the issue, it was completely eliminated.
