How to upscale videos to 4K using Clipchamp’s new AI feature
Microsoft has announced a new AI-powered upscaling feature for Clipchamp, Windows 11’s built-in video editor, enabling users to scale low-resolution videos up to 4K resolution. According to a Microsoft blog post, the feature allows users to sharpen and enhance footage with just a few clicks, making it suitable for viewing on larger displays or screens with higher resolutions.
The upscaling capability has been tested on various video types, including high-contrast footage and clips with moving objects, with promising results. While the feature cannot magically fix poor-quality source material, it effectively scales up standard-resolution video to make it viewable on modern, higher-resolution displays—a useful capability for content creators and everyday users looking to repurpose older video content.
This AI-powered tool represents Microsoft’s continued integration of artificial intelligence features into its consumer software offerings. The addition of upscaling functionality to Clipchamp’s existing feature set strengthens Windows 11’s video editing capabilities and provides users with professional-grade video enhancement tools without requiring third-party software.
