ImgUpscalerNatural vs Extra Detail
Understand what the two enhancement modes are intended to do and where to inspect results.
Natural uses the upscaler without the additional detail-enhancement option. Extra Detail enables that option. Both use AI, so neither guarantees unchanged textures, faces or lettering. Start with Natural and inspect the result at 100% before trying another mode.
Natural mode
Use Natural as your first attempt when preserving the original appearance matters. It still performs AI upscaling and can reconstruct details, so “Natural” does not mean a pixel-identical enlargement. Examine eyes, skin texture, fabric and outlines before deciding whether the output suits your use.
Extra Detail mode
Extra Detail enables extra detail enhancement in the same upscaling model. It may increase perceived sharpness or texture, but it can also introduce unwanted patterns or change fine features. It is a separate processing choice, not a download sharpening slider. Changing the mode requires another upscale to produce a new result.
How to judge the output
Use the comparison slider and 100% preview to inspect eyes, skin, hair, logos, lettering and product labels. Compare the same source at the same multiplier so that scale differences do not confuse the comparison. The existing preview and download continue to show the previous result until the new task succeeds.
Try a different source
If small text becomes inaccurate or a texture looks artificial, try Natural, a lower scale, or a less compressed source. Missing details cannot always be reconstructed faithfully. Avoid relying on enhanced lettering as evidence of what the source actually said. For output dimensions, read 2× vs 4× upscaling.
