Direct Release


What is New in v5.0

The v5.0 release represents a foundational transformation of the application:

  • 🧩 Modular Architecture: The core has been re-engineered into specialized components (core, preferences, console, drag_drop) for superior stability and fault isolation.
  • 🧠 NEO Engine: A new diagnostic subsystem that scans CPU topology, RAM, and GPU VRAM to automatically recommend optimal tiling and thread settings.
  • 🖥️ Integrated Debug Console: A real-time GUI terminal that intercepts stdout and stderr with syntax highlighting, allowing users to diagnose FFmpeg or ONNX issues instantly.
  • Native CUDA & Failover: The backend now strictly prioritizes CUDA (NVIDIA Optimized) > DirectML > CPU, with corrected integer typing for device IDs.
  • 💎 Lossless Pipeline: Deprecated .jpg usage in favor of .png for intermediate frames to prevent compression artifacts (blurriness).

Key Features

  • AI Upscaling & Restoration Utilize Real-ESRGAN, BSRGAN, and IRCNN models for denoising, super-resolution, and detail recovery.
  • Face Restoration (GFPGAN) Recover facial details from low-resolution or blurry images and video frames.
  • Frame Interpolation (RIFE) Smooth motion or generate slow-motion content with 2×, 4×, or 8× interpolation.
  • Advanced Hardware Acceleration Intelligent provider selection prioritizes CUDA, falls back to DirectML, and finally CPU for maximum compatibility.
  • Batch Processing Process multiple media files simultaneously, saving time and effort.
  • Custom Workflows Fine-grained control over models, resolution, output formats, and quality parameters.
  • Open-Source & Extensible Fully MIT licensed, for contributors and developers.
