That recent movies are totally not my cup of tea. I tried to watch a classic old movie but was put off by blurry images. Is there any way to achieve 4K upscaling of old movies?

Part 1: What Is 4K?

4K is 4096×2160 ultra high definition resolution. The standard 4K(4096 horizontal pixels) can reach four times the resolution of HD, and then with bright colors, super real sound, can bring great enjoyment to the audience. Due to the extremely high resolution, from the perspective of visual perception, the clarity of 4K video will give people an immersive feeling.

With the development of technology, film and video standards have continued to evolve over the past few years, and directors use state-of-the-art technology to shoot their films. People are also increasingly demanding high-fidelity images and resolutions. 4K is the current standard, and the 8K experience will become the new standard in the future.

For those who are nostalgic, many of their cherished video memories of the past are inevitably lagging behind in this 4K era. Now that 4K has become the norm for video production and projection, once people buy a 4K screen, they feel that they can no longer stand the video quality and size of 720P. However, as far as the current situation is concerned, there are still a large number of videos at the 720P or 1080P size. Due to technical reasons, the resolution of many old movies may even not reach the 720P level, and some image data are relatively blurred and stuck. Suddenly, this has also led to a great reduction in the viewing experience of these films today. At the same time, it has become more and more difficult for those old videos to match the new screening resolution standard to 4K upscalling and meet visual aesthetics of today's audience.

Part 2: What Do We Need to Achieve 4K Upscaling?

Is there a way to convert these low-pixel videos into high-pixel ones? It would have been very difficult for us before. But now the emergence of AI video upscaler makes everything possible. 4K upscaling for old movie to match these new standards has become a common practice in the industry. This allows viewers to revisit classic old movies in a modern viewing experience. With the development of artificial intelligence, the video upscaler can now use AI technology to repair and improve the frame rate of old videos.

Since the data volume of 4K video is huge, it also makes some requirements for the computer. The computer used requires more than 8G of memory and more than 20GB of space to ensure that the video can be run and stored. Of course, the 4K upscaling also requires a Intel/AMD processor and a 1920x1080 pixel or higher resolution display for the processor and display, which can help us better handle video details. (NVIDIA GTX 1050 Ti and upper) are also recommended strongly for GPU acceleration when processing the videos in high efficiency and saving time.
