Premium Activation won't be affected since I still can use my phone.
I have some unfortunate news to share. Tonight, I was hit by a speeding bicycle. To make matters worse, it was a hit-and-run, and the rider fled the scene. I’ve already filed a police report, and they are currently looking for the person responsible.
I spent the entire night in the E...

In the next update, the existing auto-downscale feature for super high-res images is getting an upgrade.
It will be smarter and better adapted for individual super-resolution engines and settings.
This allows for a higher resolution tolerance compared to the previous version.
Thank you for your continued support throughout 2025! 💕
And I'm looking forward to keep updating this project throughout 2026 and beyond!

In the next update, the "Speed boost" and "Scene Shift Detection" features in Frame Analysis will be optimized for faster processing. The code for these two features has been refactored, and I'm running tests to ensure there are no bugs.
And regarding the "auto downscale" feature in the last beta: to clarify, this only auto-downscales super high-res images that would crash the engine. It resizes them to the max supported size to preserve detail, so your images won't be downscaled for no...

Hello everyone, I'm writing to let you know that my grandfather passed away a few hours ago, and I will need to take some time to attend to personal matters over the coming days.

I appreciate your understanding during this time and will resume normal operations as soon as...

In the next update, the AnimeVideo-Mini model will be updated to a slightly sharper version, with better detail reconstruction, while retaining the same denoising capability.
Squeezing more out of this tiny model is challenging, but I'm working on training this model with a larger dataset and experimenting with new training methods.
Btw, since winter is coming and the weather is getting colder, training models on my PC is actually a good heat source for my bedroom, and I'm spendin...

In the next update, the [After upscale] option will be restored to enable video frame interpolation after upscaling.
This was originally an early feature, but it was disabled due to bugs. Since then, it has been requested multiple times and has now been restored as part of the maintenance update.
Do note that this will increase the VRAM requirement of frame interpolation.

Over the past years, I’ve been focused on adding new features and models for Waifu2x-Extension-GUI every month.
And because of this, there haven't been a maintenance update for a really long time.
So for this month, I’m prioritizing maintenance: cleaning up the codebase, optimizing internals, and refactoring key components.
These changes won’t be as visible as new features, but they improve reliability, and make future development faster and smoother. ...

A new model selection combo box will be available next to the "Image style" switch on the Home Tab, so you don't have to go to a different tab to switch models.
Additionally, the recently added AnimeVideo-Mini-W2xEX model will also receive a v1.5 update. Compared to v1, this model was trained with 2x com...
