🖼️ Usage Guide

🔹 Source Image

• Select or open any image file.

🔹 Resolution

🔹 Format

Shows the file format of the source image (e.g., PNG, JPEG).

⚙️ Upscaler Settings

🔸 Model Selection

Choose your preferred AI model from the available presets:

• realesr-animevideov3-x2
• realesr-animevideov3-x3
• realesr-animevideov3-x4
• realesrgan-x4plus
• realesrgan-x4plus-anime

🔸 Batch Processing

• Enable the Batch checkbox to process all image files in the selected folder.
• Ideal for upscaling image sequences (e.g., video frames).
• To upscale a video, convert it to an image sequence using Blender’s Video Editor, then use this option.

🔸 Model & Scale

• Model: Displays the selected AI model.
• Scale: Indicates the scale factor applied (e.g., 2x, 4x).

📁 Output Settings

🔸 Output Name

Set the name for the upscaled image.

🔸 Rename

Adds the model name and scale factor to the output filename.

🔸 Increment

Automatically increments the filename if it already exists (prevents overwriting).

🔸 Output Folder

Choose the folder where the upscaled images will be saved.

📤 Output Options

• Load: Automatically loads the output image into Blender (only available when Batch is disabled).
• Force: Replaces the existing image in Blender with the new one. Use with caution—this will overwrite the current image data.

▶️ Run the Upscaler

Click Run when you're ready—and watch the magic happen!

After clicking, you’ll see:
