What is it?

Visual Enhancer is a portable Windows application for enhancing images and video on NVIDIA RTX GPUs. Users arrange effects into configurable image and video pipelines, covering DLSS 5 Neural Rendering, DLSS Super Resolution, DLSS Ray Reconstruction, RTX Video Super Resolution, RTX Video HDR, and DLSS Frame Generation.

Beyond AI upscaling and frame interpolation, it includes scaling with selectable filters, coloring with .cube LUT support, NVIDIA NIS or AMD CAS sharpening, and film grain. Comparison views, batch export, and JSON presets help manage larger jobs.

A command-line tool, VE_CLI.exe, exposes the same engines for render, reconstruct, upscale, interpolate and device listing, which suits scripted processing. The app requires Windows 11 and an NVIDIA RTX GPU; frame generation requires RTX 40 or 50 series.

Key features

  • 01DLSS 5 Neural Rendering for images and video with selectable styles and intensity.
  • 02DLSS Super Resolution, Ray Reconstruction and RTX Video Super Resolution upscaling.
  • 03DLSS Frame Generation and video frame interpolation to a target FPS.
  • 04Coloring with .cube LUT support, plus NIS or CAS sharpening and film grain.
  • 05Batch export, before/after comparison views, and JSON presets.

Use cases

  • Upscaling old or low-resolution video footage on an RTX PC.
  • Raising the frame rate of gameplay or other clips with frame generation.
  • Batch-enhancing photos and applying LUT-based color grading.
  • Scripting image or video enhancement jobs through the VE_CLI command-line tool.
