Topaz Labs released Gigapixel AI version 6.2 which introduces auto model selection, along with quality improvements to all AI models and fixes to help Gigapixel AI run more smoothly:
Major Changes
- Added auto model selection, which uses image content to compute a recommended model. This can streamline batch processing and offer a starting point for further tuning.
- Improved the quality of all models by better preserving colors and removing color related block-shaped artifacts.
Changes
- Enabled automatic fallback to face refinement (introduced in v5.9) on machines that do not support face recovery (introduced in v6.1)
- Fixed face recovery using CPU too often on systems with mid-range GPUs
- Greatly improved face recovery memory usage and performance
- Fixed many causes of Photoshop plugin not being found, returning errors, or not opening the app
- Fixed transparency handling in Photoshop plugin
- Fixed processing errors on certain images when using face recovery
- Fixed square artifacts in output on Mac
- Fixed various errors during batch processing
- Added more specific information to error messages
- Fixed PPI being ignored when opening images from external editor
- Renamed Reduce Color Bleed to Gamma Correction, to better describe its function
Known Issues
- Crop button may not work on Mac. Unselecting and reselecting the current image in the file list can fix this issue.
