Incredible AI tool

[HellotoYouSir]

I came across this amazing tool for enhancing gifs. You can also save it as single frames, and use a separate tool to upscale.

(your browser may limit the frames as mines does)

It had a few problems but here is how I got around artifacts.

Method 1

1. Use X2
2. Once it is saved, take that saved file and X2 it again

Method 2

Save the gif as a MP4 video

Go here

https://ezgif.com/maker

Convert to gif and save.

Re-apply X2/X4/X6 etc... and artifacts will almost always be gone

Examples. (you're browser may not show the accurate frame-rate open it up in windows photo)

Sorry, must separate posts due to file size. Can add more AI frames to it, but too much and it starts to mess up. This is also limited to fit the forum, have a better version.

I tried this out on one of my own gifs which have very barebones frames.
It automatically fills in frames to make the animation drastically improved.

It seems to have a cut-off. Not sure if missing a setting but with some longer gifs it just cuts off before it's finished.

I may go in and try do all the sex scenes for one of them upscaled with AI adding frames.

Be abit of work though.

If you want to post larger content, you'll need to use an external site. I have limited attachment size to 20 MB per post.
GIFs really shouldn't go over this limit anyway - there's better technologies (like MP4) for animations exceeding that file size.
And its over 20 MB, fair chance its dithered the color palette which is bad news for GIF quality and file size. Make sure your converters maintain palette when scaling or reapplies a calculated palette of the 256 best matches to avoid dithering.

Unfortunately, it looks like it mostly has the same problem interpolation always has, that by removing the snap between certain frames, it lessens the impact and makes the action seem weaker. The drop of CTR112 looks okay, maybe because that animation was less snappy to begin with. I wonder how much some selective culling could get these looking as dynamic as the originals while still have the fluidity in the parts that can benefit from them.

I tried yesterday with windows movie maker to combine clips. But no luck, it completely brings the frame-rate down no matter what do. And don't know how to use other video software.

The software works far better with mp4

I've used something similar called Dain-App. Honestly, the best use for apps like these is to add a frame or two to smooth out anything odd.

Here's an example where i generated and inserted one extra frame to make it loop smoothly.



And here it without the extra frame. Hard to tell, but it's the last frame of the animation before the loop that i generated.

That one's very good (and very hypnotic).  I think a subtle touch is the best application of these tools.
