@@rkntnDavinci Resolve is free for the most part. As explained in the video, with the free version you'll get a watermark with the Superscale. To my understanding, the Studio version also allows you to use more of your hardware, to speed up rendertimes and such. For most, the free version will suffice just fine.
I just upscaled a 720p to 1080p version. Now there is also a '2x Enhanced' option, that seems to have far better result than the 3x or 4x. Atleast in my case.
I think this is great method for youtube where you want to maintain the quality and not get it downgraded by RUclips. But I would never use it for professional production unless the client asks for artificial upscale.
Actually I think you need to choose 2x 1080p footage is basically 2K. You want to change it to 4K, you double it (I know it's a bit confusing because you think it's 4x as many pixels, but in resolve I believe it's 2x =4k, 3x=6k, 4x=8k)
@@herewakahona425 that's actually incorrect. 1440p (2560×1440) is about 2.5k. 1080p (1920x1080) is about 2k (HD), 4k is 4096x2160 (Or UHD 3840x2160). The first number is indicative of what 'K' value it is.
@@baddogentertainment6960 sorry bout that i just did some research and i found that yes 1080p is basically 2k the only difference is that 1080p is 1920x1080 while 2k is 2048x1080 and 1440p would likely be 3k or 2.5k
Still useful! :) The reason why 4x doubles the output (and not 2x) is if you double the X and Y resolution the output image becomes 4 times larger. Some apps would still call that 2x though, but Resolve chose the more technically correct label. Thanks!

I think this is insane I will check it out. I think for a person like me with three Sony cameras (1)A7III and (2) A7SII it's perfect because in wedding videography you can't shoot in 60fps without making a decision on Framerate or quality. If you shoot everything in 24fps you can't slow the footage down but it's better quality and going 1080p allows 60fps or even 120fps for cinematic footage but downgrade the quality. I think as filmakers / content creators we grade our quality harder than the client ever will.
Finally, I can watch a 8k video of empty mass of Darkness fill with nothing but just a dark. Watching the Dark clip with 8k Resolution is amazing, I wish there's more than 8k Quality.
Thanks a lot, great video! I truly prefer to make vids in 1080, technology is still not good enough for 4K at least because of battery life when recording a lot while traveling etc. AI upscale is the future, I will definitely use this from now on. I wish youtube will be able to do it automatically one day or at least let us swap the videos with new 4K upscaled video source 😆
The reason you have to pick 4x to double the resolution is because you have to double the pixel count for both dimensions, vertical and horizontal. So 2x vertical pixels x 2x horizontal pixels = 4x total pixels for double the resolution.
@@travel9to5 by the way, I got the link to your video from Black Magic Design. They were helping me with a Davinci Resolve technical question I'd filed and pointed me to your video as part of their email reply after analyzing the system data I'd sent them. Your video is good.
Thanks, I've got about 2 hours to learn how to upscale but I've made a HUGE mess of this project I've been working on. Total amateur videographer & editor here - just trying to capture better video for my music & synths channel. Thing is, I shot my newest ambient music video on a wide range of stuff - from Blackmagic 6k RAW to 1080p cell phone footage and stills... and I've been such an idiot about Renders in Place, project & timeline settings... everything... it's just a huge mess. Add to the mix the insane frustration of Da Vinci Resolve crashing over and over (despite my insanely specced-out workstation) and I just want to be DONE with this project. I'll never made a video this complicated again... it's keeping me from focusing on the music. Only thing is, I feel so annoyed about putting in the investment to getting 80% of my footage in 4k to 6k RAW and it seems stupid to only render the finished product in 1080p. Eventually I just kind of compromised and I think I'll render the 1080p then upscale it to 4k using your method. This feels like a pretty stupid workflow, but I'm out of patience for this project. If it looks "good enough" at the upscale, then I'm gonna go with it. Otherwise a solid 1080p version is my fallback. Thanks for the tips, I think it will work for me!
I bought topaz and man that thing takes for ever to upscale on the m1 mac 16gb smh hopefully resolve will be faster don't mind waiting 5-10 minutes but this thing said 3 hours for a 2 minute and 50 second video lol
@@travel9to5 supposedly super scale is 10x faster. But on low light topaz does do an amazing job. Iginla wanted it for when I take videos on action cameras, and it does make them look a lot better but the things so slow I'm going to end up getting resolve lol
Thank you Eric for this insightful tutorial. Question though, with programs like these that are able to make your 1080p footage look like 4K, do you think this could substitute shooting everything in 4K? What are the benefits to shooting in 4K versus shooting in 1080p, up scaling your footage, and then sharpening it in AI programs? I’m deciding right now between buying a camera that shoots 4K120p versus saving money and buying a cheaper camera that’s able to shoot 1080p at 120 fps. This video is very helpful.
What I do: I shoot 4k, then edit on a 1080p timeline. Allows you to crop in if needed and rearrange… then upscale for output.. so in short: def buy a 4k camera, it’s the future
Kind of naive to think this is a substitute to a 4k camera. It’s like asking why shoot slow motion when you can just slow down in post? Software And fixing in post ALWAYS has limitations.
@@arielhernandez6560 Actually a good question. If you shoot in 1080p and upscale you're using an AI algorithm to fill in the pixels, the detail is just "guessed" by some sophisticated algorithm. It might look convincing for some scenes but it is not real detail, it will make the video look cheap overall. That being said AI is getting better at faking it, but it's always more valuable to have real detail. If you can afford it AND need 4K (there are many applications where a good 1080p looks better than 4k with bad HDR) then go for it. Otherwise there is some very good value in good 1080p cameras (for example the BMPCC original you can find second hand).
It didnt "kill" my PC at all. I got a R5 5500 which isnt good for editing and it didnt even got loud when rendering. It seems davinci made the rendering easier for the cpu by increasing the render time
I have both 1080p and 4K clips on my timeline. I want to enable superscale in the output option in timeline settings. Will 4K clips also be upscaled to 8K if I select enhanced or will davinci detect that they are already in 4K and leave them as is? Thank you in advance for your answer.
The only problem I have with this is that it doesn't show any progress as to where the clip is in super scale processing update, which I assume will take some time.
Thank you for the info. I have a 24 1080p clip that I would like to superscale to 4k and also use optical flow to slow it down. Would it matter the order in which I do them in Resolve, superscale first or slow down after? I wonder if the order affects the quality. Thanks.

What if I want wo use 4k footage applying >2x zooming in a 4k timeline? Do I have to export in 8k and reimport? Or how do I make sure the superscale version will be used?
Honestly, not really needed if you're just scaling your video to 2k from 1080p. As its way more time, for less of a result. scaling from 2k to 1080p is kinda unnoticeable. So I'd say a AI is useless, though 1080p -> 4k might have a greater difference sense the pixel count is way more.

@@Herman138 I don't know if I'm answering this late but the reason is because you are using the free version and this feature can be used only on the paid version, named DaVinci Resolve Studio
LOL the render time will annihilate my computer? This is NOTHING compared to what I do when using Owl3D to render normal movies into 3D ones. Yes, I'm gate-keeping but on average it takes 14 hours of frame interpolation followed by 2 days of 3D conversion FOR A SINGLE MOVIE, using an i9 13900KF and an RTX 3080. 8 hours is a piece of cake. Thank you though, great video, especially since the (misleading) tutorial I watched before this stated that all you had to do was change the timeline resolution to 4K and then click "quick export".
@@travel9to5 Yeah, I wouldn't use my editing/gaming rig to render this though if I did this on a regular basis. I would send it over to my rendering rig, so it doesn't tie up normal activities.
Do you think this can be a good solution to upscale 1440p60 videogame footage (like Escape from Tarkov with a lot of moving grass and flashing particle effects) to 5K?
i have a grading project coming up where i've been asked to upscale 1080p to 4K. should i do it after the grade or before since the footage would be in log format.
If you have 4k footage, but you zoom in with resolve how does it treat the footage when you render it? Is it upscaled since there are < 4K pixels visible or is it just left alone?
@@travel9to5 I think he is saying 4k video with 2x zoom and 2x super scale. What happens in the render? Does it create detail on the zoom since it is obviously degraded?
@@travel9to5 this is exactly the question. Which AI in respect of optimized chosen parameters work best. I have more than 700 short videos, so it's relevant for me, indeed.
Can this be done after the project is edited? I mean, after the footage arrange, adding transitions, color grade and all the job is done... Can I change the Timeline settings, the clip attributes and export it on 4K resolution without losing quality? Thanks in advance
hey, the way I do it: I edit and export in Premiere Pro, then I drop the final 1080p high quality export into Resolve and upscale it to 4k. Boom, job done
not nativly only way i have found to do this is to export into somthing like lossless idealy then import that file into new time line then just same process show in the video on final it be greate if u could tho

Yea you can do it on free version but it will add a watermark
Hi Eric, is there also a possibility to enhance a soft 4k video which has lost quality due to cropping?
it will make it more challenging though because effectively you are not giving the full resolution but i think to a certain extent yes
What if you want to upscale from a 750x576 to 1920x1080 ? What would be the multiplier ?
1920 divided by 750 is ca 2.5 and 1080 by 576 ca 2. So try 2x and above 2x to see what looks better

As its way more time, for less of a result. scaling from 2k to 1080p is kinda unnoticeable. So I'd say a AI is useless, though 1080p -> 4k might have a greater difference sense the pixel count is way more.
Hi,very helpful video..but I cannot understand why I have massive logo (Davinci resolve studio-watermak this is I guess I download davinci 16-shoot be free version,have u got any ideas?
Yes you downloaded the wrong version I think. Need the studio version
@@travel9to5 thanks for the response-I downloaded 16 version but this logo say Davinci resolve studio .Im confusing now,anyway I try diffrent one maybe be normal..
@@Herman138 I don't know if I'm answering this late but the reason is because you are using the free version and this feature can be used only on the paid version, named DaVinci Resolve Studio
LOL the render time will annihilate my computer? This is NOTHING compared to what I do when using Owl3D to render normal movies into 3D ones. Yes, I'm gate-keeping but on average it takes 14 hours of frame interpolation followed by 2 days of 3D conversion FOR A SINGLE MOVIE, using an i9 13900KF and an RTX 3080. 8 hours is a piece of cake.
Thank you though, great video, especially since the (misleading) tutorial I watched before this stated that all you had to do was change the timeline resolution to 4K and then click "quick export".
Thanks for your comment! I think comparing 3D and linear video editing is a bit apples and oranges isn’t it?
@@travel9to5 Yeah, I wouldn't use my editing/gaming rig to render this though if I did this on a regular basis. I would send it over to my rendering rig, so it doesn't tie up normal activities.
when I change my superscale settings in any way, my clip just turns black. Anybody know what's causing it?
Not expected but rtx4090 upscaled in minutes.. :O
Boom
could this saem techinuqe be applied to video that was captured from an old source like VHS to improve quality?
Potentially yea. I would just be cautious with the denoise
Do you think this can be a good solution to upscale 1440p60 videogame footage (like Escape from Tarkov with a lot of moving grass and flashing particle effects) to 5K?
Yes
Hard bro
Will this work in the ipad?
It they offer studio version for iPad then yea
thank you for this. I only have the free version of Da Vinci. Can I hire you to Superscale my video is only one clip, please send me your info.
Sorry I make tutorials only. But I am sure you can find this service on a website like fiverr.com
Is this possible with a photo tho?
Yes I think so
Thanks, but now super scale work only in paid version of the application
i have a grading project coming up where i've been asked to upscale 1080p to 4K. should i do it after the grade or before since the footage would be in log format.
I reckon I would do after… last step
Doesn't work that well with dynamic zoom though
Is the upscale feature available for the free DaVicin Resolve version?
Yea but I will leave a watermark on the 4k clip so you can preview and try it
this is a Pro feature :,)
it doesn't always work for me when I turn it on, a strange logo comes up from the company and it doesn't go away
As stated in the video you need studio version otherwise resolve will leave a watermark
Can I use this to upscale 480p digitalized VHS footage to 720p or even 1080p?
Yea
What multiplier should I use for 2k video for 4k please reply it's kinda urgent 😌
2x
If you have 4k footage, but you zoom in with resolve how does it treat the footage when you render it? Is it upscaled since there are < 4K pixels visible or is it just left alone?
you would degrade the original resolution / quality by zooming too much
@@travel9to5 I think he is saying 4k video with 2x zoom and 2x super scale. What happens in the render? Does it create detail on the zoom since it is obviously degraded?
Better use Topaz VIDEO Enhance AI to upscale from 320x240 to Full HD?
Why ?
@@travel9to5 this is exactly the question. Which AI in respect of optimized chosen parameters work best. I have more than 700 short videos, so it's relevant for me, indeed.
Holy crap... you aren't kidding. It's about to take 45 minutes for a clip that's only like 35-40 seconds long.
Put 2x as opposed to 4x that will make it faster. Updated video in description also :)
@@travel9to5 Thanks!!
why mines crash when I go to rocket
i don't have Apple Prores at 2:22
Can this be done after the project is edited? I mean, after the footage arrange, adding transitions, color grade and all the job is done... Can I change the Timeline settings, the clip attributes and export it on 4K resolution without losing quality? Thanks in advance
hey, the way I do it: I edit and export in Premiere Pro, then I drop the final 1080p high quality export into Resolve and upscale it to 4k. Boom, job done
not nativly only way i have found to do this is to export into somthing like lossless idealy then import that file into new time line then just same process show in the video on final it be greate if u could tho
