  • Using the AI-powered Video Enhance AI software I upscaled some clips/shots remastered for the DS9 documentary "What We Left Behind". The documentary remastered it to 1080p and using AI I increased this resolution to 4K. Let me know what you think of the results.
    The documentary "What We Left Behind" is an amazing production and I highly recommend you buy it, as you'll see a lot more like this, as well as some really cool behind-the-scenes stuff. You can get the BluRay here: amzn.to/2JCGydv

    DS9 really, even before the upgrade, looked way more movie like than TNG. The lighting wasn't flat, the set design extremely dynamic.. I can see why they set it on a Cardassian station.

      Part of it was a change in Directors of Photography. Season 1 and 2 were lit by Marvin Rush while 3-7 were lit by Jonathan West. Jonathan West also lit TNG Season 6 and 7 when Marvin Rush moved from TNG to DS9. VOY and ENT were all lit by Marvin Rush and never really looked that great after being edited on video.

      Actually, I for one am positively surprised with how well the upscaling works in space battles. I have no idea if there is any touching up being done beyond the upscaling, because I never noticed the distinct colored reflections on the ships hulls of nearby hulls. Something that holds up less well with the upscale is the one orbital shot of Bajor, but fuzzy planets is just something they could regularly get away with at the time.
      Also it looks better than Discoveries space battles by a fucking mile just due to cinematography alone.

      @@builder396 The space battles were effectively re-rendered in 1080p using new textures so the 4K upscaling is based on a cleaner source. There's a UA-cam video of the Sacrifice of Angels scene comparing up-rezzed 1080p from the original and the new 1080p rendering, you can really see how low res the original models and textures were.

      @@builder396 Apparently some of the people who worked on the CGI for the show had access to some of the scenes still on old backups so they were able to render them again with more modern techniques and machines. It goes to show how well done a lot of the model and texture work was back then, it's the lighting simulation that really let it down given how computationally demanding it is to do such things. Unfortunately I don't think anybody has access to the full catalogue of scenes and some have simply been lost to the annals of time so they'd have to redo some from scratch. I don't think CBS want to spend that money sadly nor do they seem to care that much for fans to do it for free for whatever reason.

      ​@@PookaBot - As several commenters have said already before you, that's not the official DVD footage used for the space ship scenes. He sampled a different unofficial source to make this video. This unofficial source remade a few short clips in HD. They look good, but they aren't what is on the official DVD that you can buy in the store.

    That is impressive. Was not aware technology was already so far.

    True fans watch DS9 as it was intended, in 244i. Just kidding, this is great.
