...it does seem to make details up - such as the guy in blue (at 0:27) who now has only one leg! 🙂 Dave

Yes, it absolutely invents content when the original is that bad. I used Generitive Expand to open it out from the original 4:3 to 1080p 16:9, which gives you three choices, and they were wildly different at times. Having said that, in two of the examples it got close to spot on when there was almost nothing to base it on. I discovered that from other stills that had a wider angle showing more of the buildings on the right. So definitely not an accurate restoration, but in the case of a video meme, good enough. I am working on another project right now that uses two months worth of credits, based on a not especially sharp image of some old work mates. I showed them a very rough and ready version that they enthused about, but I am doing it again at higher resolution, and with more effects and content, and this one is way better. So if nothing else, Firefly video and the Photoshop Generitive Fill models gives you the opportunity to impress some olf work mates, and it is super fun to do. It's about 50% Ai and 50% Photoshop with some tricky issues to get around. Definitely not possible just using Firefly, and like these SFTW threads, a useful way to expand your Photoshop box of tricks.
