Yes, I can only use a bloody laptop :( .. Gives me about 1.5 sec/frame :o
Wait! You only get that speed when using Topaz? So you spend 2 days per 1080p upscale? But you've done so many! Thought you'd have some $3000 graphics card burning away!

Unfortunatly not :( But I do it on 2 laptops at the same time. I don't save it as a mp4, but as an image sequence.

Laptops have gotten good then! Thought you'd fry a laptop pushing it like that for 2 days!
I've probably said this before but from Topaz I encode to mp4 - it makes an aprox 50gb file at quality level 4 or so - where 0 would be lossless. Then I use handbrake for the final encode, no filters. Encode in "normal", at level 4.1, quality 18, single-pass. I do apply this optional encode limiter:
vbv-maxrate=6000: vbv-bufsize=2000 (limits datarate per second to 6000kb + the buffer... which is about 1mb/second). This stops some scenes (water/waves, etc) hogging data and the video spiking to megabytes/second - not usually scenes we're interested in :)

La traversée du phare 1999 DVD REMUX.mkv
It's the best quality version - but unfortunately I see it has some minor de-interlacing comb effects.
Do you have the original source the 50fps / DVD version?
I wonder if it could be improved by taking Ghost's advice (like I did on Starlight Hotel) and using QTGMC, the best known de-interlace tool?
Because this encode is already 25fps progressive I don't think this combing can be removed without going back a source level.
It's not always noticable, it's not present on all scenes - but it's not as good as it could be - that's all. Be interesting to get Ghost's thoughts!

Thanks for the quick reply.
I've had issues with that 7.5gb ISO DVD rip of both films where I couldn't pull out just this film.

Anyway I did a Topaz 720p of the 3.3gb version. Only 1.35gb It's made a very watchable version - it just has the originals "slight" interlacing issue which is only visible in a few scenes:
https://mega.nz/file/5doDgASQ#pgwyUhjFo ... Ce655KrhQQ
https://mega.nz/file/NMwziKgZ#vCs_NQH9D ... Ir1CZyPwFw
https://mega.nz/file/UJwj0aKb#8QBSGOzPy ... x2mgcjbG-s
https://mega.nz/file/sRwX3aqJ#lxiuvrPTy ... WtxlltU7h4
https://mega.nz/file/4AhzkKJC#BbCKs-j-c ... M0r4CLqWZw
I also replaced the SUB file with a nice embedded English SRT file.
Sub files are ok for DVD. But sub files are effectively the equivalent of a transparent GIF with 720x576 resolution that DVD's used to store. The text edges look a lot harsher than subtitles in text format. SRT is text and renders much nicer.

That's a nice compliment from the master of film-finding and upscaling :)

Well, you'll ask yourself: Why does this guy spend 2 days with a film, we already have in HD?

Finally I bought a new laptop with an Intel i7-11800H CPU and a NVidea RTX 3060 graphic card. It's like a dream and just soooo amazing! :shock: :icon_1dancingban :icon_1dancingban :icon_1dancingban

Topaz is running like a racing horse (compared to my old laptop), I can do an upscale fom SD to HD in 3 - 4 hours now!!!
