With conventional software anything you do with video [or photos] is going to reduce the quality, if sometimes only slightly -- that's why pros shoot at a higher quality / resolution that what they'll use for final delivery. The original has a finite amount of data, and you'll lose some of that data editing. Using AI however you can add data, and not just through interpolation [software guessing] -- AI learns through processing vast amounts of images &/or video what stuff is supposed to look like, so it can basically add to the original data you feed it. The more data AI is fed, the better it gets, so things like DVDFab Video Enhancer work better the more they're used, e.g. some of Photoshop/s AI filters show dramatic improvement a year after introduction. A downside is that using AI isn't always fast -- DVDFab says: "... the time needed for the conversion differs a lot due to different PC hardware configurations and users’ output demands, ranging from 8 to 30 hours."

Because it takes so long you're probably not going to see reports of how well a newly installed copy of DVDFab Video Enhancer works. I am optimistic however after using the Denoise portion of DVDFab Photo Enhance AI, though there are 2 things concerning that earlier GOTD I want to warn about. One is relatively minor -- the software stores temp files in [My] Documents, and very frequent changes in those temp files can be a PITA if that's synced with OneDrive, so turn off syncing for the DVDFab folders. The 2nd problem is that on *some* photos / images there are small areas where the process actually distorts the original.

That said, I'm excited at the possibility of converting some of the Many DVDs we have to a higher resolution that's watchable on our 4k TV.

The authorization process (using the info provided from the 'how to authorize...' email) fails with "User name or Password is incorrect, please check it"

I am an existing customer with a StreamFab lifetime license. Maybe that's the problem?

Helen,

I did use the information provided in the email. It failed with the error message "User name or Password is incorrect, please check it". I checked it and confirmed that I had entered the correct information.

I am still unable to complete the authorization process.
