Model for handling MPEG2 artifacts #25

Open the-database opened 10 months ago

This suggestion is from Lycoris2013. Low bitrate MPEG2 sources are very common among anime captured from Japanese broadcasts. The main 2x_AnimeJaNai models are intended to preserve details as much as possible so they cannot have heavy artifact correction which tends to also remove details. So a separate model could be trained specifically for these MPEG2 sources such as the image below.
