Kruk2/jasna — Video restoration tool

What happened

The article is the README page for Jasna, a video restoration tool. It explains what the tool does, what computer parts you need, and how to start it. It also says where to buy a real license code for the paid supporter models: Buy Me a Coffee, Unifans, or a seller on Xianyu for users in China.

Key facts

• NVIDIA GPUs need GTX 16-series, RTX 20-series or newer, with driver 610+ on Windows or 580+ on Linux.
• GTX 10-series and older cards do not work.
• AMD Radeon RX 7000/9000 cards are supported, but this is experimental.
• The first job can take about 15 to 60 minutes while models are prepared for your GPU. This happens only once.
• LTX needs an NVIDIA RTX GPU, at least 8 GB of VRAM and 16 GB of RAM.

How it works

Jasna finds the mosaic parts of a video and fixes only those parts. The rest of the picture stays the same. There are two models: BasicVSR++ is free and fast, and LTX is slower but more detailed and is for supporters. You can also preview the parts you choose before you run the job.

Why it matters

Mosaics hide details in many videos. A tool that restores them for free on a home computer lets people see more of the picture. The article also warns that only the listed sellers give genuine license codes, which helps users avoid fake ones.

What to watch

• Whether the AMD support moves out of experimental status.
• New releases and updated driver requirements.
• Changes to the supporter models and how licenses are sold.
• Community help on the SLS Discord.
