Is there a way to upscale/remaster older lower quality vids?

The question is asked pretty much in the title really. There are a few vids I want to script but the vids are like 720 or 480p. Is there an easy way to upgrade the quality somehow? Cheers!

The easy way is to use a software like Topaz Video AI.

There is an howto topic on this if you want to read more. What is g90ak? How do I upscale/clean videos?

Was gonna link that topic. Another point I’d stress that might be obvious but sometimes is ignored:
Find the actual source or a raw source quality reupload before going to upscaling.

Couldn’t agree more!!!

I mean, that is the ideal situation. The problems with this though are…
1, Surely for the source most of the time involves paid subscription to a site?
2, Even from the source, for older vids the quality is likely to be not as good.

Cheers, will take a look.

1: Most of the time, people have uploaded the files to archival or file sharing forums.
2: Yes, in those cases you’ll want to find the source file and run it through AI upscaling.
