  8bit Video Enlargement

  Posted by Spencer Macpherson on September 21, 2011 at 4:19 am

  Hi there,
  I’m trying to enlarge an 8bit video without it antialiasing and the edges staying sharp. is there a way to do this?

  In Photoshop, the way to do this is to set the ‘Image Interpolation’, while adjusting image size, to ‘Bilinear’. I couldn’t find any options like that in Vegas.

  Thanks for the help,

  Enlarge how much? From SD to HD, no. There are upconverting programs and plugins that can help. The good ones like Topaz look at before and after frames and interpolate what the missing pixels should be.

  I have a 256 x 246 recording from Fraps that I want to enlarge 4x to 1024 x 984.

  I was mistaken earlier. Instead of Bilinear, one would set it to Nearest Neighbor.

  I’ll take a look at Topaz, but so far they don’t seem like what I’m looking for. I’ll look into them more though.

  You should also look at Boris FX UpRez. I have a tutorial on it here at the COW:

  Yes, I forgot about UpRez, and that plugin works in Vegas. Topaz in a plugin for After Effects and FinalCut, not Vegas.
