Get involved with this software as it develops.

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“I am using Early Access to work with the community to add user-requested features and ensure all supported hardware is completely stable before releasing the full version. REAL Video Enhancer relies on complex tools that may experience issues with the wide variety of system setups. My goal is to ensure stability across the current supported hardware, while increasing the options to enhance videos.”

Approximately how long will this software be in Early Access?

“For 2 months.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“As of now, the Early Access version may contain issues on niche supported hardware due to the wide range of inference options and hardware support. While this project's features are mostly dictated by user requests, some planned features for the full version are not yet implemented in Early Access, including Denoise and more options for each inference mode, like RIFE DRBA. I also plan to expand the current model catalog for the full version, increasing versatility for users. ”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“REAL Video Enhancer is fully usable, but could include issues on specific system configurations. All core features listed in the “About This Software” section are currently implemented. There might be bugs on user's system configurations that I have not accounted for yet, and these will show up in the Early Access version. ”

Will this software be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“It will always be free.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“The Community can assist in submitting issues on the GitHub page. Any announcements on updates will be made on Steam, along with any communication being done over Discord. I am actively looking for feedback on bugs or feature requests to improve REAL Video Enhancer.”
