MSTAR Posted September 5, 2020 Posted September 5, 2020 Hi! I’m happy to share an upscale in 4K of Baby One More Time! I keep now original frame rate to not cause artefacts and visual glitching. I included some uncut dancing scenes to not have the best dancing parts being cut (and also for letting it on YouTube). I’m improving everytime my upscales, I think I had better results with 3, Circus, My Prerogative and Radar, so tell me if this one is also great. Hope you enjoy!

If only I had better sources for the uncut scenes, the rips of the DVD Greatest Hits: My Prerogative are so low quality, and upscaling just enhanced a little more.

I already did Circus and Everytime, I had awesome results on Circus but never tried Work B8ch, I will maybe do it later since it’s at least HD.
MSTAR Posted September 5, 2020 Author Posted September 5, 2020 Okay so next video will be Sometimes with the original scenes (not the VEVO one).

Nickey Posted September 5, 2020 Posted September 5, 2020 This looks very good! And this comes from a person who doesn't like video remasters

But why you don’t like video remasters in general? (It’s just to learn how I can improve more my remasters)

(It’s just to learn how I can improve more my remasters) I don't like video remasters because everyone thinks it's easy to make a HD video out of a very LQ video. So a lot of people who make them just use sharpen and/or blur filters, add some contrast and that's it. And it looks worse than the original. I think it's very hard to improve the quality of a video or audio with good results. One of my hobbies is remastering/restoring audio from vinyl records and that's why I'm saying this. It takes long hours sometimes

I think it's very hard to improve the quality of a video or audio with good results. One of my hobbies is remastering/restoring audio from vinyl records and that's why I'm saying this. It takes long hours sometimes Yeah I understand, but it also depends on the source of the upscale, like if it’s from DVD or a ProRes Master. In general, Masters performs better for AI upscaling, but sometimes, DVD rips are better. I try now to make a clean remaster without too much of modifications or editing, like I did on 3, Circus and Baby One More Time. It takes a whole day to upscale with AI in 4K, for just a 3 or 4 minutes video, even on powerful computer, so yeah remastering need patience. But what I do is just for fun and experiencing, I hope her label would remaster her videos with their original materials and 35mm films to get a proper HD remaster.

MSTAR Posted September 6, 2020 Author Posted September 6, 2020 I just noticed that it restored some pimples on Britney’s face, didn’t knew that she suffered from acne since BOMT, I only knew that on Crossroads and OIDIA she had them. Look at 0:33 on a big screen or zoom in.
