Upscale and restore video in ComfyUI. Both the quick local path (per-frame ESRGAN like 4x_foolhardy_Remacri via ImageUpscaleWithModel + 4x→2x supersample, with its temporal-flicker tradeoff) and temporal-aware super-resolution (SeedVR2, the newer FlashVSR) with the downscale-first restore pipeline; RIFE/FILM frame interpolation via the BUILT-IN ComfyUI 0.26 FrameInterpolate (rife_v4.26 in models/frame_interpolation/) or the ComfyUI-Frame-Interpolation pack; 2x/4x scaling, VRAM tiers, VHS encode. Captures the classic downscale→SeedVR2→RIFE recipe and the current 2026 recommendation.

# Video Upscaling & Restoration

## Overview

"Upscaling video" in ComfyUI splits into three jobs, and the quality win comes
from doing them in the right order:

1. Spatial restore + upscale. A temporal-aware model that increases
   resolution AND cleans compression blocks, blur, and AI-gen mush while
   keeping frames consistent over time. This is the part a plain image upscaler
   (ESRGAN, UltimateSDUpscale per-frame) does badly. Per-frame upscalers
   flicker because each frame is sharpened independently. Use a video model.
2. Frame interpolation (VFI). Synthesize in-between frames to raise fps
   (e.g. 24→48/60) for smooth motion. Do this after the spatial pass.
