# k4yt3x/video2x

> A C/C++ framework for video super-resolution and frame interpolation using neural networks (Anime4K, Real-ESRGAN, Real-CUGAN, RIFE) via ncnn and Vulkan. Runs on Windows and Linux with GUI, CLI, Docker image, and a Google Colab notebook.

## Useful for

- Upscale an old anime video from 360p to 4K with Real-CUGAN
- Increase a clip's frame rate from 30 to 60 FPS using RIFE
- Run upscaling in a Docker container without installing host dependencies

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-21 (UTC), 00:10–21:53: 22335 → 22348 stars (+13). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +14 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- Interest is fading: the two-day pace is 50% of the previous week and a half.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

- Forks: 1,953
- Issues and pull requests: 1,391
- Watchers: 193
- Average over the last week: 15 per day
- Usual pace: 27 per day
- Latest release: 6.4.0 (2025-01-24)

---

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
