NVIDIA RTX Video Super Resolution Update Enhances Video Quality, Detail Preservation and Expands to GeForce RTX 20 Series GPUs

GFreeman · Oct 17, 2023

NVIDIA today announced an update to RTX Video Super Resolution (VSR) that delivers greater overall graphical fidelity with preserved details, upscaling for native videos and support for GeForce RTX 20 Series desktop and laptop GPUs. For AI assists from RTX VSR and more - from enhanced creativity and productivity to blisteringly fast gaming - check out the RTX for AI page.

The Super RTX VSR Update 1.5
RTX VSR's AI model has been retrained to more accurately identify the difference between subtle details and compression artifacts to better preserve image details during the upscaling process. Finer details are more visible, and the overall image looks sharper and crisper than before. RTX VSR version 1.5 will also de-artifact videos played at their native resolution - prior, only upscaled video could be enhanced. Providing a leap in graphical fidelity for laptop owners with 1080p screens, the updated RTX VSR makes 1080p resolution, which is popular for content and displays, look smoother at its native resolution, even with heavy artifacts. And with expanded RTX VSR support, owners of GeForce RTX 20 Series GPUs can benefit from the same AI-enhanced video as those using RTX 30 and 40 Series GPUs. RTX VSR 1.5 is available as part of the latest Game Ready Driver, available for download today. Content creators downloading NVIDIA Studio Drivers - designed to enhance features, reduce repetitiveness and dramatically accelerate creative workflows - can install the driver with RTX VSR releasing in early November.

Noticing it over does the contrast losing the original images natural colour.
Nice tech though.

Hopefully they've made huge improvements as AI upscalers available for MPV were vastly superior last I checked.

Pity they've not worked with anyone to implement in into a desktop video player. Well, except that one build of VLC, and that was buggy.

The contrast enhancement is the worst part of the tech. They should separate that out or disable it entirely.

There is a plugin for MPC-HC that works well.

Well if it can improve the quality of a lot of youtube 1080p videos bring it on. Seriously YT is ruining watching video below 1440p in a lot of cases, the video quality is horrendously bad.

Now how many crickets are chirping at AMD

Who cares? YT will be pay walled soon.
