None. I like my old anime the way they are. I don't like them too clean/sharp.

From what I am able to gather, that program is only useful in upscaling individual images rather than the whole video despite the OP stating that it can. I don't know. Looks great compared to other upscaling algorithms I know of though but there are apparent aliasing and some parts seem oversharpened. Regardless, that's just me being nitpicky considering this is miles better than other popular upscaling methods in video encoding.

Depends on what you consider old, but if everything pre-2000 is old I'd like to see GTO, since it's a really great show.

The word "Old" is not very suited for Death Note.
At least not the version with all capitals.

See, that is an anime that could get an amazing 4k release down the road - IF the negatives still exist. I think those are the most beautiful backgrounds I've seen in anime, I'm holding out to see if it gets a good restoration before I invest in it, though (I watched it on VIki after you recc'ed it). I don't know how Tezuka Productions handled storing their materials, is the thing.

I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed it!

It drives me crazy when I hear about studios not properly storing or preserving film elements, especially for animated productions. It's so dumb to put all that work into something just to treat it like shit afterwards.

Tried the tool, and it works amazingly on Visual Novel CGs.

Imagine if someone built a patch that allows VNs to be ran at double the default resolution (800 x 600) with all images upscaled like so.

totally agree

upscaling is bad even doom9 the number 1 forum for video enthusiasts says so many many times already

wait for fractal video encoding to appear because that tech will make different resolutions obsolete since its like true vector images that can be downscaled and upscaled without losing any video quality http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractal_compression#Resolution_independence_and_fractal_scaling

You should see the test before even saying something like that... and compare it to the original..

Of course its not 100% perfect, but its miles better than already existing upscaling methods..

Also it has the ability to improve, by training with thousands of good quality images..

It looks decent, but there are sharpen artifacts on the white/pink edges.

I did a quick test with nnedi3 for comparison, your way looks better (at least for still images).

Upscaling always "loses" quality... even if the result can be subjectively "preferred". Upscaling is best left for playback. (similar problem as using SVP to up the framerate prior to encoding...)

Didn't say it made miracles, but it does make at least 50% of a miracle.. :P

watch the video test..
