QualityScaler 2.3 changelog.
NEW
- Completely rewrote the tile management algorithm:
- cutting an image into tiles is ~60% faster
- tiles now also support transparent images
- tiles are no longer saved as files, to save disk space and time
- now the image/frame upscaled as a result of tiles is interpolated with the original image/frame: this reduces graphical defects while maintaining upscale quality
- Added "Video output" widget that allows you to choose the extension of the upscaled video:
- .mp4, produces well compressed and good quality video
- .avi, produces very high quality video without compression
- .webm, produces very compressed and very light video with no audio
GUI
- The app will now tell how many tiles the images are divided into during upscaling
- Removed Mica effect (transparency) due to incompatibilities: often did not allow to select, zoom, and move the application window
BUGFIX & IMPROVEMENTS
- By default AI precision is set to "Half precision"
- By default now "Input resolution %" is set to 50%
- Partially rewrote and cleaned up more than 50% of the code
- Updated all dependencies
