Topaz Video AI: Manual parameter adjustment with Iris LQ

Demo summary

The user shows how to enable manual parameters and use the 'Estimate' feature with the Iris LQ model to fine-tune dehaloing and enhancement on low-quality footage.

Step-by-step

  1. Go to the Enhancements section
  2. Select the Iris LQ (Low Quality) model
  3. Switch the parameter mode from Auto to Manual
  4. Click on Estimate to see the app's suggested starting points
  5. Adjust the Dehaloing slider to fine-tune the enhancement

Options

  • Use Iris MQ (Mid Quality) for a less aggressive AI treatment
  • Use Iris LQ (Low Quality) for more aggressive treatment on poor footage

Tips

  • Click on Estimate after switching to manual so you know what the app identifies as needing a fix
  • Use the LQ model specifically if your footage is very low quality
