Ahoy, mateys

I've seen some concert footage on YouTube that's been upscaled via "AI", and some of the examples look incredible.

Is it possible to upscale the video content I've acquired? I have a few series that look to have been recorded on VHS tapes crammed with dirt.

Opinions & ideation are welcome. Mostly curious whether it's feasible.

You could try these programs and there's many more you can try with a bit of searching:

You can search "AI video upscaler github"

Yep yep yep, I've previously poked around GitHub and found a variety of projects that sound promising.

Have you yourself tried any of these?

I haven't tried any of these but I did try this anime upscaler some time ago and it was decent but not hugely impressive like upscaling real footage is, at least to me (still impressive though).
