Model designed for upscaling footage from Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog and Sonic SatAm (sorry Sonic Underground fans). These shows (produced by separate contractors/production companies) aired from 1993-1994. While they do consist of cel-based animation, some segments use panning to achieve > 24fps, so you'll probably want to use QTGMC to deinterlace if you're looking for maximum quality.

This was trained on the dataset that OptimusPrimal used for his DigitalFilm models. This model cleans up the image removing some noise while upscaling. This model is very fast, running around 200x the speed of a standard ESRGAN model on my system. This is primarily a proof of concept for how fast Real-ESRGAN models can get while still producing nice results.

DigitalFlim SuperUltraCompact

2x SRFormer_light anime upscale model that handles AVC (h264) compression since h264 crf 20-28 degradation together with bicubic, bilinear, box and lanczos downsampling has been applied on musl's HFA2k dataset with Kim's dataset destroyer for training.


If you want to run this model with chaiNNer (or another application) you need to use the onnx files with an onnx upscale node. All onnx conversions can be found in the [onnx folder on my repo](https://github.com/Phhofm/models/tree/main/2xHFA2kAVCSRFormer_light/onnx).
