How to choose the right video upscaling model for various kinds of the video?

Note: the “Versatile” model only available for the Nero AI Video Upscaler subscription version. Windows Store Pro version will get the model updates later.

Please check the following preview screenshots and recommendations are on the below.

All the original videos resolution are 1280×720. Upscale to 3840×2160 (4K) and zoom to 200% to preview.

2D animation

 

Animation model is strongly recommended to increase the sharpness and contrast to get the clear view of the upscaled video.

Animals

Versatile model is recommended to keep the details of the animals. If you feel the processing time is too long, Fast model can also be used but it keeps more noises than the versatile model.

Portraits

Realistic model is recommended to refine the skin texture and suppress the noises. If you prefer to keep the skin texture, versatile model is also recommended.

Still life

Realistic model is recommended to refine the edges by sharpening the video and suppress the noises. If you prefer the less sharpness view, versatile model is also recommended.

Landscape & architecture

Versatile model is strongly recommended to keep the sharpness and slightly increase the contrast to reserve more details from the original video.

3D CG

Realistic and versatile models are both recommended to retain the sharpness and reduce the blurry. If the original video has been applied some post-processing effects like film grain, you can use the versatile model to keep these effects. If it is not, realistic model can process the video more faster.
