base talk A bunch of artists are reposting their music videos. Why?

[Hexchromatica]

The original uploads are still up and these seem to be identical. What's going on?

I think it's either a hack or reposting with "proper HD" videos.

The video quality is identical or worse than before

Wouldn't be surprised if the label is doing AI 'upscaling'

They're no better quality though. This replacement looks worse to me

I mean it hasn't fully processed since these were uploaded less than an hour ago

I don't think that's how YouTube encoding works

It's giving ai shenanigans

They're going private. Seems someone flicked the wrong switch

I hope is to upload in 8k at 60fps.

They've gone private so it is definitely an upscale version is just that upscaled videos take a while to adjust to the highest resolution and add to that the fact that it is also affected by internet reception.

The lack of critical thinking across the board in this thread

Agreed. I appreciate that labels are remastering old music videos but some of them do not look good at all, especially the old ones from the 80s and 90s and it's probably due to how technology was at the time.

 

Sometimes 480p is okay!
