Possibility for AI upscaled FMVs of original FS1 and FS2?

<< < (3/3)

Now that I have my hands on a GPU with Tensor cores and some funds to get Topaz Video Enhance AI, I intend to go forward with this project.

How do I extract/repackage the .mve/.mv2 video files from both Freespace games?

You might be better off just grabbing them as OGGs and working from there.

FS1 cutscenes

FS2 cutscenes

EDIT: If you prefer, they're also available in AVI format.

FS1 AVIs

FS2 AVIs

For the best quality, you are also able to convert the original MVE files into AVI by yourself with MVE2AVI.

Not sure if the downloadable OGGs and AVIs are maybe way too compressed.

I know this is coming late, but thanks! I have a lot of free time on my hands now, so hope to make something out of it.

Edit: Just tried it but I got a "DirectDraw Init FAILED" error

Edit 2: I managed to overcome this by downloading DDrawCompat, throwing the .dll into the MVE2AVI folder, and the extraction worked flawlessly! Now to throw the resulting AVI to Topav Video AI...
