Hello there, it's Neocaron,
While not directly MiSTer related, I recently started a YouTube channel where I remaster old game cinematics, trailers, or whatever else I feel like remastering. In the real world, I work mostly as a video restorer and video editor. With advancements in this space, I developed my own restoration model, which has made my job so much easier, achieving really good results on real-life footage. (Important to note, this is not something you can do with Topaz, it's much more advanced than that. It has text understanding, object/people understanding, texture, lighting, and much, much more. I even trained it to know what scanlines or TV noise are, so it doesn't try to remove them.)
I thought it would be fun to apply this to video games, and funny enough, after a couple of tries, I discovered my model wasn't so good with video games. Three iterations down the line, I think it works pretty damn well, and I've even seen improvements in work related projects (nice bonus 
). Suffice to say, I really enjoy going down this path, and I plan on releasing new episodes as often as I can. I probably won't be doing only that on there though, I might be doing some retrogaming content in general as well.
As an anecdote, I actually use the games running on my CRT and my MiSTer (for the PSX anyway) as reference points and I adapt the restoration to get a result I feel would be the perfect scaling on a 4K screen, while adding a bit more detail and removing all compression artefacts. I keep the frame rate as is though because I don't think framerate interpolation is restoration (my opinion). Anyway, If some of you are into it, you're all welcome to check out my work. I'd say the only current episode using my latest changes is the Alien Trilogy one! The others are not as good, and I'll probably redo them sometime soon. Coming next, we'll have (not in order) FFVIII (all FMVs from disc 1), Tomb Raider, KOTOR, and I'm also open to any suggestions, so be my guest!
In the meantime here is the latest episode, which will probably end up being the first but anywaaaay:
