FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Everything you need to know about AI frame interpolation
What is AI frame interpolation?▼
Frame interpolation uses AI (typically RIFE technology) to generate new frames between existing ones, creating smoother motion. Convert 24/30fps to 60/120fps. The AI is 4-27x faster than older DAIN methods.
How is this different from Topaz Video AI?▼
Topaz switched to subscription-only Oct 2025 ($299/yr Standard, $699/yr Pro) and requires a powerful desktop GPU. Imagera is browser-based, pay-per-use, works on any device—no GPU or download needed.
What resolutions and frame rates are supported?▼
We offer HD (1280x720) and SD (832x480) in Landscape, Portrait, and Square formats. Output frame rates up to 60-120fps depending on your source material.
Will my video have wobbling or artifacts?▼
Our RIFE-based AI ensures realistic, natural motion without the common wobbling or artifacts found in lower-quality interpolation tools like older DAIN implementations.
Can I use this for anime 60fps conversion?▼
Yes! Anime is typically animated at 12-24fps. AI interpolation can smooth it to 60fps. Note: Some prefer the original frame rate—the "Soap Opera Effect" is controversial in the anime community.
What frame rate do I need for VR content?▼
Research shows 120fps is the threshold for reduced motion sickness in VR, with 90fps as the minimum requirement. Our interpolation can help bring lower fps content up to VR standards.
