Video AI v3.1.X - User Benchmarking Results

It represents the “AI Processor” setting in the TVAI preferences. I think 0 is usually (if not always) the GPU.

Thanks.

Is there a place where I can find what the values in the benchmarking results mean?

I suppose a written explanation hasn’t happened because everyone that requested it be added to TVAI, and everyone that has posted results in here, already know the concept of a benchmark. Here’s my (hopefully) detailed explanation:

The speed that a video will process in TVAI is highly dependent on five things: Central Processing Unit (CPU), Graphics Processing Unit (GPU), input video resolution, output resolution and the AI model selected.
Looking at the lest benchmark result, we can see that with an AMD Ryzen 9 3950X CPU, an Nvidia RTX 2080 Ti GPU, an input video resolution of 1920 by 1080 with the Artemis model selected: The frames per second (fps) were 14.96 with an output resolution of 1920 by 1080 (1X). At the output resolution of 3840 by 2160 (4K [2X]), the frames processed per second were 6.67… And so on and so forth. For the interpolation models (Apollo and Chronos), they only show the speed of the 1X resolution because they do not change the resolution. They show the frames per second when increasing the amount of frames by 4.

Thanks - just to add that Max. Memory Usage is also an important factor.

You’re right, but it’s so wishy-washy. Like turning it down on some hardware makes all the difference, but on others, it dose nothing but make it slower.

Thanks for the explanation. I was just seeking to know what the various values represented in the report and that was answered., all except for one. What does the “Device 0” mean? All the results seem to return this as a value.

Device=0 is the GPU, -1 the CPU, 1 would be if there is another GPU like an iGPU or a second GPU. The benchmark only uses one device… but I’m not sure what happens if you select All GPUs if you have that option.

THANKS!

Well, there are differences (at least in my PC setup)

What 3090 do you have? Even with manual overclocking, this is the highest I was able to achieve using my watercooled 3090 FE. At stock settings, I average about 15.x fps in Artemis 1x and low 6’s in 2x

RAM speed makes a difference on those CPUs too. They might have a higher speed.

Mind sharing what RAM and GPU you have?
Curious if I’d see similar results (5950 / 3090 / 32GB) if I upgraded to a 4090

Hi, does that numbers mean, that you can upscale SD to FHD in almost realtime?

Yes, almost real-time if the source is 24 or 25 fps Standard Definition. However, the majority of upscaling is not going to be done in real-time - yet.

Thanks.
