I believe that when watching videos, everyone will choose a higher resolution option, so that the interface can display clearer and more detailed picture quality.

However, when you download a very blurry video, or a low-resolution video from a client or friend, is there a way to increase the video resolution?

video resolution enhancer

In this technologically advanced age, nothing is impossible!

After actual measurement, we have sorted out 5 video resolution enhancer, the effect of which will definitely surprise you!

Part 1: What is Video Resolution?

Resolution refers to the resolution of video details. The higher the resolution, the higher the video quality. It is usually indicated as the number of pixels in one direction, which is "the number of horizontal pixels * the number of vertical pixels", such as 1920*1080.

Since the movie is composed of countless pictures, you can also understand this set of values as the resolution of one picture, and the resolution of each consecutive picture is the same.

Perhaps you will find that many video streaming platforms allow users to adjust the resolution themselves. While higher resolution videos are clearer, higher numbers can also affect download and transfer speeds.

The resolutions we commonly see are 720P, 1080P, 2K and 4K, and the meanings of these specifications are as follows:

  • 720P:The resolution is 1280*720 pixels, and the following value is used as the indicator.
  • 1080P: The resolution is 1920*1080 pixels, and the following value is used as the indicator.
  • 2K: The pixels in the horizontal direction reach a resolution of more than 2000, such as 2560*1440.
  • 4K: The resolution of the pixels in the horizontal direction reaches more than 4000, such as 4096*2160; but due to the different scope of application, other similar specifications were later extended to be also called 4K, such as 3840*2160.

When the previous shooting technology was not mature enough, 720P was already the limit value of high-definition video, because it was called standard high-definition. The default value of most video playback devices now is 1080P, also known as full HD. Even if there are higher resolution options, users may have to watch the movie on a larger screen to see the difference.
