Source: Ivan Besse home movies, 1938 (Prelinger Archives, public domain), in the 320×240 copy archive.org serves. It is film, not tape: we have no VHS capture we can publish. Settings: Denoise Strong (an ffmpeg filter), Upscale 4× with NVIDIA RTX Video Super Resolution, Sharpen Light. Grain and blocks go; detail the film never held does not appear. Both images show the same frame and the same area. The source is enlarged with bicubic scaling, as a player would show it. Output from AI Video Enhancer Studio.

A film has no interlacing, so the first row shows what the step costs. Tape captures need it.

Measured on 30 September 2026 with AI Video Enhancer Studio 2026.7.15 (command line) on an RTX 3080 with 10 GB and a Ryzen 9 3900X. Steps 1 to 4 are the median of three runs made while other jobs used the PC, so read them as plus or minus 2 s. Step 5 is the same command run today: 6 to 8 s (this site has quoted 9 s). Each run includes start-up and saving. Source: 1.0 MB H.264, Ivan Besse home movies, 1938 (Prelinger Archives, public domain).
