|
|
|
|
## 2.4.1 (February 21, 2019)
|
|
|
|
- Video2X will now migrate all the audio tracks and subtitles to the output video.
|
|
|
|
## 2.4.0 (February 8, 2019)
|
|
|
|
- **Added AMD Support**. You can now use `-d/--driver waifu2x_converter` to specify the waifu2x driver to be `waifu2x-converter-cpp`. Note that you'll have to download and configure [waifu2x-converter-cpp](https://github.com/DeadSix27/waifu2x-converter-cpp/releases) first.
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
|
|
Video2X is an automation software based on waifu2x image enlarging engine. It extracts frames from a video, enlarge it by a number of times without losing any details or quality, keeping lines smooth and edges sharp.
|
|
|
|
For short: **Video2X enlarges your video without losing details**
|
|
|
|
Watch for the sharper edges in this screenshot around the shadows:

## Installation
|
|
|
|
### Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
- **Python 3**
|
|
Download: https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/
|
|
- **FFMPEG Windows Build**
|
|
Download: https://ffmpeg.org/download.html
|
|
- **waifu2x-caffe for Windows**
|
|
Download: https://github.com/lltcggie/waifu2x-caffe/releases
|
|
- **waifu2x-converter-cpp**
|
|
Download: https://github.com/DeadSix27/waifu2x-converter-cpp/releases
|
|
|
|
### Install Dependencies
|
|
|
|
First, clone the video2x repository.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ git clone https://github.com/K4YT3X/video2x.git
|
|
$ cd video2x/bin
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then you may run the `video2x_setup.py` script to install and configure the depencies automatically. This script is designed and tested on Windows 10.
|
|
|
|
This script will install `ffmpeg`, `waifu2x-caffe` to `%LOCALAPPDATA%\\video2x` and all python libraries.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ python video2x_setup.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, you can also install the dependencies manually. Please refer to the prerequisites section to see what's needed.
|
|
|
|
Then you'll need to install python dependencies before start using video2x. Install simply by executing the following command.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Quick Start
|
|
|
|
### Sample Videos
|
|
|
|
If you can't find a video clip to begin with, or if you want to see a before-after comparison, we have prepared some sample clips for you. The quick start guide down below will also be based on the name of the sample clips.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- [Sample Video Original (240P) 1.7MB](https://files.flexio.org/Resources/Videos/sample_input.mp4)
|
|
- [Sample Video Upscaled (1080P) 4.8MB](https://files.flexio.org/Resources/Videos/sample_output.mp4)
|

|
|
|
### For Command Line Beginners
|
|
|
|
If you're unfamiliar of directories in command lines, then here's a short section that might help you to get started.
|
|
|
|
For example, if you downloaded the sample input video to `C:\Users\[YourUsername]\Downloads`, then the full path of your input video will be `C:\Users\[YourUsername]\Downloads\sample_input.mp4`, vice versa. The output path is also relative. If you want to export the output video to the current directory, just specify the output video name such as `output.mp4`. However, if you want to put the output video in a different directory, you should use relative or absolute path, such as `C:\Users\[YourUsername]\Desktop\output.mp4`.
|
|
|
|
If you're tired typing everything in, you can also drag the video file directly into the command line window, and Windows will fill in the full path of the video for you.
|
|
|
|
### Nvidia CUDA (waifu2x-caffe)
|
|
|
|
Enlarge the video to 1920x1080 using CUDA. You may also use the `-r/--ratio` option.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ python video2x.py -i sample_input.mp4 -o sample_output.mp4 -m gpu --width=1920 --height=1080
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Nvidia CNDNN
|
|
|
|
Enlarge the video to 1920x1080 using CUDNN. You may also use the `-r/--ratio` option.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ python video2x.py -i sample_input.mp4 -o sample_output.mp4 -m cudnn --width=1920 --height=1080
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### AMD or Nvidia (waifu2x-converter-cpp OpenCL)
|
|
|
|
Enlarge the video by 2 times using OpenCL. Note that `waifu2x-converter-cpp` doesn't support width and height.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ python video2x.py -i sample_input.mp4 -o sample_output.mp4 -m gpu -r 2
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### CPU
|
|
|
|
Enlarge the video to 1920x1080 using the CPU. You may also use the `-r/--ratio` option. This is potentially much slower than using a GPU.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ python video2x.py -i sample_input.mp4 -o sample_output.mp4 -m cpu --width=1920 --height=1080
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
