I do think you might be spending too much time on something Topaz Labs already figured out, though!

I wrote my FFMpeg wrapper in order to do VHS upscale much cheaper than BlackMagic was doing with Teranex. By the time I finished my wrapper and started writing an Electron app for it, Topaz dropped their AI solution and I gave up on making it anything more than a command line app. I have a few clients who bought Topaz when it was $299 for a lifetime license and I really should have jumped on that!
Yeah Topaz is prob the only option out there now. Its still a bit clunky, some updates often introduce problems and its doubled in price almost.

You also need a beefy system to run it and even with a 5090 card, be prepared to wait.
Its not optimized for Mac OS very well and even with a current top end Mac Studio (M3 Ultra/M4 Max), its much slower than a PC running a recent Nvidia card.
