AMD Super Resolution Video Technology: Radeon FSR for Video
PThere is CES 2024, AMD announced their latest innovation in improving video quality with AMD’s super-resolution video technology called the Radeon FSR for Video. Previously, NVIDIA RTX’s super resolution video technology had dominated, but now AMD is preparing to provide a formidable response with its superior solutions.
What is Radeon FSR for Video?
The Radeon FSR for Video, a component that will soon be included in the Radeon Adrenaline package, is the latest technology developed by AMD to significantly improve video quality. This sophisticated video scaling algorithm is based on AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution technology that has been proven in the game world, although the version used is not disclosed in detail by the developer.
FSR Advantage Demonstration
In a stunning demonstration, AMD demonstrated the FSR’s ability to increase the image resolution from 720p to 1440p. Tweaktown sources noted that this technology provides significant image improvement, although assessing video scaling from a single frame is not an easy task. We hope that AMD will soon release a complete demo video to provide a more comprehensive picture.
Collaboration with VLC developers
AMD doesn’t just stop there. They are working with the developer VLC to release a special version of the video player optimized for the Radeon GPU. This version will be integrated with the FSR for video scaling and noise reduction based on AMD Propertari technology. Previously, VLC had released a special version that supports NVIDIA RTX Super Resolution Video, allowing direct comparisons between the two.
Comparison with NVIDIA technology
NVIDIA RTX Video Super Resolution technology based on artificial intelligence algorithms that can increase video from Full HD to 4K with better quality. This tool works with all GeForce RTX graphics card series. In the process of scaling video with RTX VSR, each frame is analyzed by a well-trained neural network with various content. This highlights the edges and fine details, as well as detecting and eliminating compression artifacts.
Conclusion
With this latest breakthrough, AMD confirmed its position as the leader of the innovation in improving the multimedia experience of the user. The Radeon FSR for Video opens the door for a sharper and clearer viewing experience, providing a formidable alternative to previous technologies. Wait for the next news, because AMD continues to pound technology boundaries to improve video quality standards.
