Have you ever wanted to enlarge and playback low-resolution and small images and videos, or remove mosaic on videos if they were originally mosaiced?
In this issue, we will explain the details of JavPlayer, which reduces video mosaic, how to use it, and what to keep in mind when using it.
Basic Information on Javplayer
Javplayer can be downloaded from the official website or through the developer's official Twitter.
Extract the two downloaded files "JavPlayer_109a.zip" and "TecoGAN_108.zip", and move the two folders "TGMAIN" and "TG-MODEL" to the "TG" folder in "JavPlayer_109a". You will be able to use the software immediately.
Paid Version and Trial of Javplayer
Javplayer has a free trial version and a paid version. The differences in functionality are as follows
The width of the video that can be created with the recording function cannot be changed from 640 pixels
The available recording range is limited to 1 minute (even if you specify more than 1 minute, the recording will be forced to end after 1 minute)
Processing settings are applied to the entire video to be processed
In VR mode, video mosaic reduction is only available for up to 10 minutes
The paid version is priced at 1,200 yen and can be purchased from the official website.
Currently, the Mac version has not been released and is only available for Windows.
How to use Javplayer
Let's start with the mosaic processing, which is the most important part of Javplayer.
Strictly speaking, Javplayer does not remove the mosaic from the video, but uses AI to guess and restore the original screen.
The top part of the screen displays buttons and icons for recording, settings panel, etc. Below that, you can play, stop, and adjust volume.
Clicking on the folder icon allows you to specify any video file to import, and playback the video while mosaicing.
You can also import video files by dragging and dropping them.
Mosaic processing settings
To get a better mosaic processing effect, you need to make the appropriate settings.
Settings are made from the icon at the far end in the upper right corner of JavPlayer. Clicking on it will display the image quality, sensitivity, and accuracy.
Each of the icons listed below has a corresponding function, and details can be found in the Japanese version of the manual that comes with the downloaded file.
This is the best tool for those who seek accuracy, as it can be set to a very fine level of detail, including color specification and background specification.
Points to note when using Javplayer
Although Javplayer has very good features, there is of course a possibility that it may not be able to handle some videos.
If the video quality is too low, there is a possibility that it cannot be supported.
The effect of JavPlayer's mosaic reduction processing is greatly influenced by the condition of the video to be processed.
In most cases, mosaic processing will not work well for videos with low image quality, because it is difficult to detect mosaic in the first place.
Note that if the background contains a plaid-like pattern, it may be misidentified as a mosaic.
DRM-protected videos cannot be played directly.
DRM is a method of managing electronic content to prevent unrestricted use. Since the general public cannot unlock it, playback with Javplayer is of course restricted. It is especially true for content such as commercial DVDs, which are prohibited from being edited or otherwise reprocessed in the first place, so it is difficult to process mosaics even with Javplayer.
There are other software besides Javplayer that allows you to enjoy videos in high quality.
Although Javplayer is a software specialized in processing mosaics, it is not suitable for downloading videos from regular video sites and playing them back in high quality. What we would like to introduce to everyone here is a video player that can help you enjoy videos on a regular basis.
MyStream Downloader is a download tool that supports most video and TV streaming services, allowing you to download for free from general sites such as YouTube, as well as adult sites such as Netflix and FANZA. Some products specialize in supporting different sites you use.
Simply copy and paste the link to the video you want to download to start downloading, and you can set the quality, format, and even download it as an audio file.
If you want to save your favorite videos without losing the original quality, please give it a try.
Conclusion
We have briefly introduced basic information and usage of Javplayer, which processes mosaics on videos. It is impossible to completely remove a mosaic once it has been applied, but with Javplayer you can expect the maximum effect. Some of the settings may seem a little difficult, but it may be a good idea to adjust them while referring to this article and the manual.
