Video Enhancer Software

Post by weese237 »

Hello,
Does anyone use a good video enhancer? I've looked at Topaz Video AI but it's too expensive for me. I don't have too many to enhance, sharpen and/or denoise so I can't see spending that much at this time. I really don't like subscriptions so I stay away from those.

I would be grateful for any suggestions.

Thanks!

I've heard that Davinci Resolve is the go to choice for video editing and that it's available as a free version as well as at a price.

Having said that, I've never used it as I've never needed to edit video.

Hi Ken,
Davinci Resolve comes up quite a bit for editing photos but I never considered it because I use Luminar Neo and love it. I didn't know about videos so I will check it out! :smile:

I've read about quite a few of the other enhancers but they seem to rely on subscriptions or "credits". The videos that I'm looking at are of the family and quite old. Just thought I may clear them up a little. There is just a few of them so that's why I don't want to spend a lot of money as I probably won't use it again. Depending on what I find, I may just leave them alone.

Thank you!

Interesting, I've only ever heard of Davinci Resolve being used for videos, never photos :smile:

I've no idea what the free version can do, it might be it can't do what you need but :free: doesn't cost anything to investigate does it?

Hi, I looked into it and I possibly didn't understand what they were saying but from what I read, I doesn't do video enhancements unless you use Davinci Resolve Studio which is $295.

I video and stills edit using the free version of DaVinci. There are numerous adjustment possibilities but also a very steep learning curve. For your few videos, best look for alternate software such as PowerDirector, Flixie free version. No personal experience enhancing with these.

A quick internet search shows a few free online video enhancement services. If your videos don't have any sensitive data in then you might want to give one or more of these a try.
