Couldn't go 4K with one. Same case as Eazy-E's video: lack of image quality But it's good enough. I also used the censored VOB, because where were simply too many times in which they would appear singing to the censored lyrics.

Is it possible to improve the quality of these videos? Dr. Dre - Still D.R.E. ft. Snoop Dogg 50 Cent - Just A Lil Bit
I believe both are possible, I just need to find a master or at least a high-quality VOB without dot-crawling or rainbowing for both. "Just A Lil Bit" is definitely possible, maybe even worth a 4K upscale.
I also need to say, I have a big plan for 50's videos, as I have good quality masters for most of them, and would love to upgrade them all to 4K. It'll just take me time, as I don't have the money for the Topaz credits, and the 4K upscales are even more expensive. If I had, I would start doing them today lol
