How noticeable is the improvement of RIFE over the standard algorithm? Is it discernable in a blind test?
The answer is it depends. Rife makes it easier to produce better looking results. Turn on RIFE, load the engine -> get a decent result. So technically it might be better than "a" standard algorithm. But unless you are mainly watching Anime which is what it is designed for, it produces way too many artifacts for live content. SVP (with work and testing) can produce the same results, especially at high frame rates like 120Hz and above. But without the large number of artifacts. Right now, from all my movies, I have maybe 2 artifacts that can only be seen on a very large screen. With RIFE I had that many artifacts or more, "per movie" that can be seen on almost any size screen.
Yes I did find RIFE to have too many problems in movies for sure, so sticking to standard algorithm seems like a good call! Still pissed I can't get RIFE to work though. I hope it's a weird glitch and not a bad GPU problem.
