NVIDIA and Google are introducing a new technology for scaling streaming video up to 4K using RTX graphics processors.

NVIDIA RTX VIDEO CHROME 1200x540

NVIDIA's latest upscaling technology will soon be available for online video streaming, promising better quality with powerful RTX graphics. The company announced that RTX Video Super Resolution (VSR) will unlock artificial upscaling to 4K using the Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge internet browsers.

Google recently released a new early stable version of Chrome (110.0.5481.77) that already supports this technology. However, it will require a new driver, which NVIDIA promises to release sometime in late February. Additionally, VSR has been confirmed to work only when users enable it manually via the NVIDIA Control Panel. By default, the feature will be disabled.

The RTX VSR technology has been shown working for YouTube, but the company is confident it will be used much more widely. NVIDIA and Google may allow VSR to work with video streaming platforms such as GeForce Now and Netflix, which will translate video from a 1080p source to 4K and make the transition to a higher membership level more secure.

RTX VSR has been officially confirmed to only work with GeForce RTX 30 and RTX 40 graphics cards. The RTX 20 series will also be supported, but at a later date. The company emphasized that the technology would not work on battery-powered systems, as it requires more power to use.

The RTX VSR is expected to be available to the general public in the coming weeks, greatly improving the quality of online video streaming. In addition, the new technology will give developers the ability to improve their applications and games, including support for higher resolutions and overall improved graphics quality.
