Major manufacturers of graphics solutions also offer technologies that allow rescaling images in games to obtain better efficiency in exchange for sacrificing a little quality, and even in some cases adding it. Something similar introduced NVIDIA with RTX Video Super Resolutiona technology that allows improve the quality of videos using AI. At the moment we only found it in Edge and Chrome browsers, and now extends to VLCthe popular video player.
With NVIDIA RTX Video Super Resolution within VLC We will be able to opt for this technology to improve videos with a certain similarity to DLSS, although with great differences. With NVIDIA RTX Video Super Resolution it is possible to improve the quality of the video frames, based on the video at original resolution, rescaling it and applying filters to improve quality. Now we can see better quality videos, even with local files, without having to go through Chromium-based browsers.
The only drawback is that this technology, which does not use the DLSS algorithm (or part), makes use of the NVIDIA RTX Tensor Coresso it will be necessary an NVIDIA RTX graphics To make it work. At the moment it is only available in the RTX 30 and 40 Seriesalthough later it will also take the first generation of NVIDIA RTX, the 20 Series.

I am a Computer Engineer and my specialty is automation and robotics. My passion for hardware began at the age of 14 when I gutted my first computer: a 386 DX 40 with 4MB of RAM and a 210MB hard drive. I continue to give free rein to my passion in the technical articles that I write at Geeknetic. I spend most of my free time playing video games, contemporary and retro, on the 20+ consoles I own, in addition to the PC.
