Just looks like really aggressive edge enhancement, like any TV with a sharpness control turned to max. I'm sure it's more elegant than that but looks similar.
looks like a sharpening filter applied to the videos in real-time. I would like to see how well it does with sophisticated, complicated shapes with repeating patterns such as a Moiré pattern on fabric. Could the AI get it right to tightly woven fabric patterns?
Guys... Is only 25% more performance, switch has a downclock for maintaining the 8watts so this "upgrade" won't do nothing (in regards of "60fps" or even upscaling, upscaling video and videogames are two different things). There is even the possibility that this "plus" chip is the same chip on the switch lite just using all their power at 16watts... (The shield tv was more powerful than the normal switch thanks to being able to use all the 25watts of its chip most of the time), this could easily be the chip on the switch lite just in max performance.
Well with it being ai tech and all, I'd expect it to know what the picture is supposed to be and add extra details. Kind of like how an artist can generate their own image.
@Dreamstate You can actually create detail that isn't in the source material. Nvidia has trained a deep learning model that has learnt features of the world that allow it to fill in details that aren't in the source material. There is a regularity to most images that can be exploited for interpolation purposes.
@Dreamstate I know it's an old comment, but today nvidia came out with the keynote with a neat demonstration where an ai upscaled picture from 720p to 1080p has more detail than the natively rendered 1080p picture. Very cool. Could change how things are a lot. (it's in keynote part 2)
It's not just a filter, the algorithm has no idea what sharpening is. It's trying to recreate scenarios its seen - as time goes on as they keep training it with more source material it'll keep getting better and better. I suggested this and the sister antialiasing system they have could be a thing many years ago and people laughed at me at the time, so I have a fair idea how it works, they basically feed it source video frames at high resolution and the associated downscaled version and have it figure out how to make the downscaled video as close to the source as possible, rinse/repeat hundreds of trillions of times with new parameters across masses of input data. A filter can't get better over time, this can.
I've seen AI upscaling used for stills, great to see hardware acceleration being worked on to combat the process intensive nature of the up-scaling for video.
What's crazy about the AI enhancement is that it "knows" when something is out of focus and doesn't mess with it, like the second wing of the butterfly.
Oh imagine this on retro games, mainly on PSone/N64, because SNES/Mega Drive etc hold up better in time cause of the 2D graphics. Great video once again Eta!
Man, you are killing today with the astrophotography post and this video. These are exactly the kind of things i wanted to check if they really work. Amazing photo and amazing video.
Wow, thanks, you just saved me $150. I was about to buy one, thinking the AI upscaling worked on any video that it played. I was planning to use it as a MythTV and Plex frontend, so until they make the AI upscaling universal, I won't be buying one.
@@truemoon4545 In my testing it is practically the same as the 2017 model. Not much difference since most of the extra power is being put to use for the AI upscaling. Even with that feature turned off it didnt do much better for a 2019 device.
I'm close to getting this. I am waiting to see how the emulation performance is and how well it place with 3 party controllers. I have the 2017 model and had a few issues with my Xbox One controller. Very excited for Dolphin on this.
Gotta be honest with you ETA, and perhaps I'm just talking shit because I dunno what nVidia really used there. But to me, it looks just like edge sharpen and contrast tweaking. Perhaps selective, if there's AI involved, but a bit heavy handed in some areas. What gave it out for me was the squirrel/mole guy comparison. You see, I don't think the character was originally supposed to have pure white glassy eyes or whiskers. It's losing a very subtle gradient that was supposed to be there, as well as brightening the pupil color in general. Those purple flowers too... on the original the... well, central disc part of the flower seems a light shade of pink. With the scaling applied it's just a bright white almost as if it's giving off light or something. But ramping up contrast too much might result in just that. It crushes blacks and ramps up whites, both blowing up highlights and crushing dark areas. You tend to lose gradients. This is definitely a look that lots of people like, but it takes some of the nuances and realism out of it. Sharpening tends to make textures pop out more, but if it's applied too heavily the image starts looking artificial. Which isn't a big deal for cartoons, but might not look very good for live action. The combination of both tends to give scenes and stuff like grass a subtle neon-like look, going towards surrealism. xD This is also something that lots of smartphones cameras use on internal processing, automatically. Because people like the looks of it, and it tends to hide stuff like motion or bad focusing blurs. Also used a lot in extreme HDR photo processing. It's all good one way or another, I'm not really criticizing... after all, if you don't like it, just turn it off.
I was heavily considering the 2017 shield but was hoping there would be another 2 year refresh.. so I decided to wait... if it can cross the finish line with dolphin where the 2017 model Couldn’t... I am 100% sold... if not, I am 95% sold :)
Yeah it seems to basically have the same effect as just turning up the sharpness setting imo, which is fine, but a lot of people would complain that it unduly adulterates the source content.
Upscaling improved a lot in the recent years, in the new LG TVs it's magic, I was wondering why would anyone buy a Shield this is a good reason, not everyone can afford the latest TVs the Shield gets the job done.
It's really just edge sharpening, a feature every HDTV had since the mid 2000's. You can turn filters like this on from your GPU's control panel, or use a video player with filters. Heck, even the Playstation 3 had edge sharpened scaling.
If it's true AI upscaling, it is doing a lot more than edge sharpening. AI upscaling would scan the highest quality version of the video and be able to add detail to the lower quality version because it knows how it's supposed to look at the higher setting. The problem with it is that it has to build a library to know how to upscale it.
Most people would not be able to see the difference in motion pictures. You have to compare frame by frame to see it and the difference is very small. Nividia Shield TV Pro does not support that many streaming services such as AT&T TV Now.
CloudXGaming has been doing multiple reviews for 24hrs. He has shown the difference that the tegrax1+ makes. In short for general apps and streaming, damn all of a difference. For gaming it makes a huge difference. He said if you already owned the 2017 shield then it's not worth the upgrade.

Awesome research. This is just like the mClassic that I am using for my Switch which enhances the games native resolution for better detail & takes away jag edges. Also I remember years ago around 2008/2009 I downloaded a Blue ray movie & played it on my Desktop PC using a 1080p TV at the time & I could see the extreme sharpness & awesome enhances to that movie even without a Blue ray player. How I got it to play was using those mega code software which works wonders. Now I forgot the name of the movie but I believe I still have it somewhere. So seeing this just reminds me of those years when I was exploring better detail to movies ect.
This is amazing, I hope they can bring this to the GPU's as well? (It might already by in them and I just don't know how to do it...) but that Night of the living dead clip look at the pattern on her dress. It's so much clearer!!!
Does the upscaling work with Plex? Does native support for Atmos change anything if you only use Plex? It already supported passthrough right? Thanks in advance for your reply.
We cannot wait for Dolphin emulation test on the "pro"... It's probably the only reason some of us have to think about getting the 2019 over our olds 2015 or 2017
same old maxwell gpu. how they managed to do this i dont know but its very handy. still not technical reason they they cant add it to older shield tv back to 2015 since its same gpu.
It looks worse in my opinion it just makes it sharper. If you go to a store that sell tvs a lot of them will be in the manufacturers "enhanced mode" all that dose is turn up the contrast, sharpness and color to 11. Also any tv with those adjustments could achieve the same look.
I watched a series on prime and was able to check the demo mode and was amazed.. One day later it did not work. Same episode. What could that be? Says no ai supported content
ETA PRIME, did you use shield tv on a 4k tv? what brand? because 4k tvs themselves do the natural work of uppscalling, if it was on a 4k tv then does shield still work better than 4k tv itself? i'm in doubt between apple tv and shied tv
The new Shield TV don’t play the native games like Doom 3 and Half Life 2, I confirmed with Nvidia it’s because of the 2GB RAM, but as their aren’t many games like that on it natively it’s not that bad, and you can always stream them on GeForce Now. They are using AI algorithms for the enhancement, they taught it with lots of newer content so said it may not work as well with older stuff.
please compare wifi adapter strength in the non Pro vs the Pro vs 2017 models. Im curious if the round design helps or hurts the wifi signal. thanks ETA
Was planning on buying one today, then saw you had affiliate links but they not available at the moment. I'll wait until they are to go through the links. I have 2 older pros with 850 evo and cx500 ssd's inside... Any idea if the ai upscaling will upscale 720p on older 1080p 70 inch bravia tv?

It's okay right.. But let's not forget... VLC has had video sharpening in for a long time which looks very similar to this.
that looks fantastic! big difference .
So it won't upscale contents which are lower than 720P?
Am seeing everywhere that it upscales 720P and 1080P so what happens to contents below 720P
It looks very good in my opinion. Nice video btw
Great demo of the AI up scale.
ETA PRIME, did you use shield tv on a 4k tv? what brand? because 4k tvs themselves do the natural work of uppscalling, if it was on a 4k tv then does shield still work better than 4k tv itself?
i'm in doubt between apple tv and shied tv
The new Shield TV don’t play the native games like Doom 3 and Half Life 2, I confirmed with Nvidia it’s because of the 2GB RAM, but as their aren’t many games like that on it natively it’s not that bad, and you can always stream them on GeForce Now.
They are using AI algorithms for the enhancement, they taught it with lots of newer content so said it may not work as well with older stuff.
It only needs one hdmi input to be a great image upscaler
How does it work on a game streaming service which only outputs 720p due to bandwidth limitation ..
please compare wifi adapter strength in the non Pro vs the Pro vs 2017 models. Im curious if the round design helps or hurts the wifi signal. thanks ETA
The difference is surprising.
Looking to get a shield pro soon. Do any other apps support this feature since this was uploaded?
This is the Shield version of DLSS 2.0 Amazing Tech !
Looks like a real time wavelet filter
Which shield would you recommend? I want to buy one of them because I’m tired of my fire tv. I hate it.
still trying to find that marvel vs capcom arcade1up for 199.99 lol
so if i understand correctly this won't work on kodi or in our own movie library, correct?
Awesome detailing ✌️
So this doesn't work for Hulu or PlayStation Vue yet?
Dolphin emulator?
I wish they could bring it to smart phones and have it built in
Was planning on buying one today, then saw you had affiliate links but they not available at the moment. I'll wait until they are to go through the links. I have 2 older pros with 850 evo and cx500 ssd's inside... Any idea if the ai upscaling will upscale 720p on older 1080p 70 inch bravia tv?
