Video AI Tiff Image Sequences also drop frames

Today I thought I would attempt to get around the unresolved issue of rendered Pro Res files dropping the last one or two frames.

Currently I have a swag of FHD files to deinterlace, and I in the past when working in Video AI I found the best way to avoid a clip’s motion blurring is to select Replace Duplicate Frames and set the Sensitivity at 15. This I have found sharpens clips and does away with movement blur.

In any case I output the clip as a 16bit Tiff image sequence, with the intention of later re-rendering it in After Effects or Premier Pro as a Pro Res file. Unfortunately, as good as the deinterlacing model is in this application, once again I am missing the last frame. As previously instructed I have turned off my video export Without Preview.

Over to you Topaz Labs.

Hello,

Thanks so much for providing this feedback. We’ve just built a new beta version of Video AI available now that should resolve this issue. Here’s a link to download it:

Windows
macOS

If everything goes as planned, this fix will be made public on Tuesday for our 3.3.2 stable release.

Hi Tony! Came on to search regarding Image Sequences and Videos being short frames. I see some community responses saying it was fixed but then more recent user posts saying it still is not. I obviously am having this same problem.

Is there a dev or support here to definitely be able to say what we need to do to get 1:1 renders? Ie. I input 100 frame sequence to resize to 4k and on output I get 100 frame sequence?

Trying to use this for a film production and let’s just say you can’t be short ANY frames - using EXR/PNG or MOV and still can not get exact match of length of original (purely doing Upscale - no other changes). Thanks!
