enhancr is an elegant and easy to use GUI for Video Frame Interpolation and Video Upscaling which takes advantage of artificial intelligence - built using node.js and Electron. It was created to enhance the user experience for anyone interested in enhancing video footage using artificial intelligence. The GUI was designed to provide a stunning experience powered by state-of-the-art technologies without feeling clunky and outdated like other alternatives.

It features blazing-fast TensorRT inference by NVIDIA, which can speed up AI processes significantly. Pre-packaged, without the need to install Docker or WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) - and NCNN inference by Tencent which is lightweight and runs on NVIDIA, AMD and even Apple Silicon - in contrast to the mammoth of an inference PyTorch is, which only runs on NVIDIA GPUs.

• Encodes video on the fly and reads frames from source video, without the need of extracting frames or loading into memory
• Queue for batch processing
• Live Preview of output media
• Allows chaining of interpolation, upscaling & restoration
• Offers the possibility to trim videos before processing
• Can load custom ESRGAN models in onnx & pth format and converts them automatically
• Has Scene Detection built-in, to skip interpolation on scene change frames & mitigate artifacts
• Color Themes for user customization
• Discord Rich Presence, to show all your friends progress, current speed & what you're currently enhancing
• ... and much more

To ensure that you have the most recent version of the software and all necessary dependencies, we recommend downloading the installer from Patreon. Please note that builds and an embeddable python environment are not provided through this repository.

There probably will be free versions down the line, after a backlog of versions has released.

The GUI was created with cross-platform compatibility in mind and is compatible with both operating systems. Our primary focus at the moment is ensuring a stable and fully functioning solution for Windows users, but support for Linux and macOS will be made available in the near future.

Support for Apple Silicon is planned as well, but I currently only have an Intel Macbook Pro available for testing.

TensorRT is a highly optimized AI inference runtime for NVIDIA GPUs. It uses benchmarking to find the optimal kernel to use for your specific GPU, and there is an extra step to build an engine on the machine you are going to run the AI on. However, the resulting performance is also typically much much better than any PyTorch or NCNN implementation.

NCNN is a high-performance neural network inference computing framework optimized for mobile platforms. NCNN does not have any third party dependencies. It is cross-platform, and runs faster than all known open source frameworks on most major platforms. It supports NVIDIA, AMD, Intel Graphics and even Apple Silicon. NCNN is currently being used in many Tencent applications, such as QQ, Qzone, WeChat, Pitu and so on.

I would be grateful if you could show your support for this project by contributing on Patreon or through a donation on PayPal. Your support will help to accelerate development and bring more updates to the project. Additionally, if you have the skills, you can also contribute by opening a pull request. Regardless of the form of support you choose to give, know that it is greatly appreciated.

I am continuously working to improve the codebase, including addressing any inconsistencies that may have arisen due to time constraints. Regular updates will be released, including new features, bug fixes, and the incorporation of new technologies and models as they become available. Thank you for your understanding and support.
