Topaz Photo Ai Try it →Watch full video →Topaz Labs · Sep 2024

Demo summary

The user demonstrates how to select the 'Interlace' enhancement and apply the Dione DV model with auto-detect field order to remove interlacing artifacts from VHS footage.

Step-by-step

Go to Enhancements
Select Interlace or Interlace Progressive
Choose the Dione DV model from the options list
Set the Field Order to Auto-detect
Select a short duration for the preview
Run the enhancement to deinterlace the footage

Options

Select Interlace Progressive if artifacts are baked into the render
Choose between Dione DV, Dione TV, Dione Dehalo, Iris LQ, Iris MQ, or Proteus models
Manually choose field order if Auto-detect results are unsatisfactory

Tips

Use Dione DV or Dione TV for footage captured via direct FireWire
Rely on Auto-detect for field order as it reads the metadata effectively
Run a short 2-second preview first to verify the results

Highlights

“the autod detect does a really decent job”
