    Notes: I can't tell you for how long I've been waiting for a high-quality version of this video since 2008... I made the 8K upscale first in ProRes and then downgraded it to the lower resolutions.

    @ddnt32 I'm a big fan of your work, you've brought Sharemania's upscale game to a new level!
    If you'd do the sd to hd color transfer before the upscale you'd go o a even higher level :p

    I don't know the source correct aspect ratio, if i'd have the file i'd scan it with ffmpeg but I've set the aspect ratio of your video to 1:1 and looks about right!

    Thank you! <3 But I really don't like changing the colors unless I'm completely sure of what the original looks like, I'm always afraid of messing something up

    Oooh, you think I'm talking about color editing? No, color transfer is just the way the color matrix of the pixels work!

    Actually by changing the resolution from SD to HD you are messing up the color matrix, for the video to look the way it looked as the original SD you must go the the BT709 (HD) from BT601, SMPTE 170M, BT.470... etc (SD)

    @ddnt32 just look into it and watch your videos on brighter screens (gamma), you'll notice. on some videos is more noticeable than others, reds look orange, skin tones are not pink, they go towards orange...

    Yeah, you don't notice until you know about it, once you know you notice the difference all the time, most upscales (even official releases on YT) don't do the transfer, Topaz does not include this option and I think most don't know about it.
