I never have any downloading issues for models I have used before, and when updating to the latest version of TVAI, I always choose not to delete anything so whatever I have will stay in the models folder. Also when I upgrade to a new version I make a backup copy of the models folder and choose the option not to remove the old models (as many of them may not have a newer version and removing them would just mean it would try to redownload them again). So generally I use the method of looking in the Video AI log file for the files that it failed on (that have the failed message on) and downloading those in a web browser and saving them to the models folder. But the download script can take hours/all day downloading a lot of model files for models that you may not need/want (I don’t know if it downloads it for other processors/GPUs and not just those relevant to the ones you have). But I found the script only seemed to work when I went in Topaz Video AI to process->open command prompt and started it from there (when I just used a normal command prompt from windows to start it it didn’t seem to work but I may be mistaken). I haven’t downloaded the very latest version of it yet. You could try using the download script that’s at the top of this thread. The software gets stuck saying downloading model/loading model again Prior to this, I’ve never had any issues going all the way back to Topaz Video Enhance AI Not sure what’s been going on at Topaz, but the last 3 releases, including v3.2.3, don’t work at all. I was trying to upscale a movie, but just to test it out I loaded a 1MB 320x240 avi video to upscale and the software gets stuck saying downloading model/loading model again. I’ve been using Topaz products for many years and never had any problems with anything, but starting a couple versions ago I couldn’t render videos using my Nvidia 3080 Ti and now I can’t render videos at all. You mentioned looking into the models folder in the Topaz Labs LLC/Topaz Video AI folder for a models folder, but after upgrading to v3.2.3 I’ve been unable to upscale any videos and a models folder doesn’t exist within the Topaz Video AI folder. This morning it was still saying the same thing, so I’m not sure if it’s having difficulties downloading the models, loading the models, or something else. As I mentioned, I tried to upscale a video last night, but it was taking so long to download, I just left it as is and went to bed. It would also be helpful for troubleshooting purposes. It goes back and forth between downloading model and loading model, but if the app had an indicator bar showing that it was actually downloading a model and when the indicator bar is full, the model has been fully downloaded, it would be extremely helpful. I agree 100%! While I haven’t tried running anything from the command line, last night I loaded a video into Video AI, adjusted my settings, and selected preview. edit: and it’s downloaded some other model files too. It would still be more helpful if it said what (if any file it’s downloading though and what it’s skipping.Įdit: it’s downloaded one model file now thanks (aaa-v10-fnet-fp16-576x416-2x-ov.tz) but it would be good if it showed more info about what it’s downloading so we can see what it’s downloading (and maybe the bitrate, % complete, filesize). Previously I’d run it from a normal command prompt in the topaz program folder. It’s pausing for a while on one line so maybe it’s doing something more. What files it’s skipped because they already exist with up to date versions.Įdit: When I was sent it I wasn’t given the instruction that’s shown at the top of this thread which is to "To use them open the terminal from inside the app and run the script. It’s not clear what it’s done from the current output really - ie. the name of the ai model and the tile size.tz) and where it’s saving it? Or if it’s skipping one if it already exists couldn’t do that? if it’s downloading a file couldn’t it say what file it’s downloading (eg. is there a common ftp copy or http copy command that would work better (while still being fast)?Īlso couldn’t it specify more clearly what it’s doing? eg. Is there a reason why it uses ffmpeg instead of something that just copies (maybe ftp based or http based)? eg. edit: and I’ve run another test of Video AI today and that tries to download a new model too (so there’s still model files needed to download). I know there was still models to download because I tried a test of video ai, which said it failed on a model and then I downloaded one that it said it failed on manually. I also ran it yesterday and there was none showing with current date yesterday. It’s not put any model files (.tz files) in the C:\ProgramData\Topaz Labs LLC\Topaz Video AI\models folder that I can see (there’s none showing with a last modified date of today’s date).
