Deinterlaced, and upscaled the raws wonky 1440x1080i resolution to full 1920x1080p using Topaz Video Enhance, which uses AI deep learning. It also does a really good job at deblocking, denoising and sharpening without losing any detail. AT-X logo has also been removed by splicing in clips from the SubsPlease release.

Any idea how long would it take to reencode and release new eps (of this standard) after they show up in raw? By looks of it, atm, these are best releases at nyaa.

The Topaz Video Enhance software I use takes about 5-7 hours to process one episode, assuming I don't do anything else with PC while it runs. But I think I can bring that down to around 3 hours if I split up the work load. As I noticed running just 1 client, only uses about 35% of my GPU. And if I run 3 at once, each processing a different section, then I can greatly reduce the processing time. And I just have to stich the pieces together afterwards.
I also shaved off about 30-50min of processing time by cutting out the opening and ending song. And instead slice in pre-processed clips of the op/ed into the finished processed video before moving it on to encoding.
Encoding the video takes about 1.5 to 2 hours. And then there is also some time I need to spend cutting out crap from raw like ads. Then retiming subs, setting up chapters, and encoding audio. So that probably is a total of 1 hour of work.
So I would say up to around 7-12 hours after raws is what I expect them to be up. Also need to account for slight delays in me spotting when raws are up. And if I end up sleeping while I let computer run video processing overnight.
On a side note. I'm thinking of making all future releases in just x265 10bit. Unless there are specific requests for x264 versions. But if I do release a x264 version. Then I will be upping the bitrate for that somewhat to counter banding issues which cropped up in my previous release. So those will probably be about 6-700MB. I'm currently happy with the bitrate for the x265 version and wont be changing that.
This is the first time in like 18 years I've released any anime. So I've had to re-learn a bunch of things and figure out which bitrates works best for me.
