Its weird man - my brain just paints the rest of this in! haha #DS9

Found some childhood drawings by me looking through some old folders/books a while back - thought I would share here - quite pleased with my meshing of Chaos together!! #Warhammer40K #W40K
I did love my combat cards! Still got them all as well, plus a good few White Dwarf magazines.

Just using the tools of very smart nerds!! 🖖🤘🤓🙌

It can be better to look at edge masking so dreamed up badness can get masked out or handled better. And with multiple AI layers the hope is to reduce issues as much as possible, we cannot go back to a super HQ source that the studios could, its their trump card.
#VOY (3/3)

Take this still from #StarTrekVoyager for instance - Paris can come out ok but the Captain behind is mid/far distance in the frame and with not much to work pixel wise some AI models can get a bit...... wild if you let them (see here also) (2/3)

Why is this important (Depth mapping and masking) well remember this is old SD land video in modern terms its tiny 640x480 essentially, with less than 4% the pixel count of 4K the AI upscaler does not have much to work with, and they can be a bit dumb and treat all parts of the image the same (1/3)

Ain't Depth mapping fun!
Some testing with Video Depth Anything here on "Q-less" S1
#DS9 - the aim is to layer various masks and AI upscales to almost emulate photoshops layers but with video 😄

With proper colour space and correct gamma sorted it been nice to look at some season 2 #DS9
Upscaled here by @ds9redefined.bsky.social

So @ds9redefined.bsky.social is briefly back on the hunt for laserdiscs! Anyone with copies of #DS9 season 2 NTSC-J (Japanese version)??
It looks like the following image here

Again showing off some @ds9redefined.bsky.social work from Season 2, #DS9 upscaled goodness sourced from Laserdisc, this has the 470m colour space fix baked in..... Here is S2 DS9 "The Siege" enjoy

LaserDisc Project Complete(ish) and Other Happenings The team has now mostly completed the LaserDisc project! This means that we have captured and stacked all of the episodes from composite master seasons: DS9 S1-3, and VOY S1-4. We have them uploade…

Latest blog post over at DS9:Redefined in case you missed it ...

👏 Well done!

Here is a shot from nasty SD land.... notice anything.....

you might need to fire up the DVD ....

Nope, hehe this is fun :)

So here is some @ds9redefined.bsky.social work here, sneaky peek.
To help you out this is from "Caretaker" #VOY
What changed?? 😉😉☺️🙌

For everyone's enjoyment, lets look at Ethuryl's work here. A little #DS9 rework :D
www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXdY...

Swear I've seen it somewhere in #DS9 recently..... just been through a LOT of #DS9! :)

Its part of an animation on #VOY here in 'Concerning Flight' it cycles through planet.....

I'll have a scout about - if anyone finds the episode with it in view please let me know too :)

Its nowhere near as effective as me doing it - sadly there are some steps you just have to frame by frame if you want it done right. Its a one time only thing which is good but can take a good chunk of time. Results are worth it to me - for others it might not be

One additional step I am adding in, even with all the dropout correction done on laserdisc stacking u must go over the episode frame by frame and applying the dust buster effect manually to cover dropouts, there is a lot and no really effective way to automate this but its so worth the effort! #DS9

Another fantastic actor leaves the stage, Godspeed Harris Yulin. I'll put on some #DS9 and Ghostbusters and raise a glass!

And for Exhibit B .... how about we add in some Blu-ray sourced Star Trek #ENT ...... Got to love a purple sky :/

Yeah ..... so DVD shows being in the wrong colour format - let me show you some things - I'll label them exhibit A :)

Yeah it seems the days of the 90s were a bit Wild West 🤣
turns out 470m brings things right good 👍

I visit Kielder observatory a lot doing my astrophotography- always liked to rain on my visits !! Glad you enjoyed it

That’s my county! Where abouts Hexham way?
