Filmora AI Video Enhancer for Mac
Rather than relying on manual fine-tuning, Filmora's AI Video Enhancer uses advanced AI models to analyze each frame and automatically improve sharpness, texture, and visual clarity. This makes it an effective solution for enhancing older footage, refining smartphone recordings, or improving videos shot in less-than-ideal environments. As a result, soft or low-resolution clips appear cleaner, more detailed, and visually polished.
By offering professional-grade enhancement directly within the Mac editing workflow, Filmora ensures both speed and reliability. The newly added Topaz model, accessible through the Select Model option, delivers high-quality improvements while preserving the original frame rate, duration, and motion. This streamlined process allows creators to achieve consistent results without disrupting the natural flow of the video.
Key Features of AI Video Enhancer
- Powered by Topaz Starlight Model: Filmora utilizes the advanced Topaz Starlight AI model to enhance clarity, minimize noise, and improve overall visual quality with high-level accuracy.
- Consistent Output Settings: Enhanced videos retain the same frame rate and duration as the source clip, ensuring smooth playback and seamless placement within existing projects.
- Smart Resolution Handling: Footage up to 1080p is enhanced and exported at 1080p, while higher-resolution videos preserve their original resolution, supporting outputs up to 4K without forced upscaling.
Step-by-Step Guide to Using AI Video Enhancer on Mac
Now that you understand the capabilities of this feature, follow the steps below to use it in Filmora on your Mac:
Index
Step 1. Import and Add Media Files to the Timeline
Launch Filmora for Mac, import your media files, and add them to the timeline.

Step 2. Access AI Video Enhancer Standard Mode
Within the editing workspace, open the Video settings panel on the right side. Under the Basic section, scroll to find AI Video Enhancer, select the standard model, and click Generate to start the enhancement process.

Step 3. Select the Topaz Starlight Model
For higher-quality results, choose the Topaz Starlight model located beneath the standard option, then click Generate to apply advanced enhancement.

Step 4. Enable AI Night ViewNEW
To enhance the visual quality pof dark video or videos that are shot at night, click the "AI Night View" option. Hit the "Generate" button to enhance the nighttime video quality.

Step 5. Preview and Export the Video
After the enhancement is complete, review the final output and click Export in the top-right corner to save the video to your Mac.

Improving the quality of low-resolution or blurry videos no longer requires third-party enhancement software. Generative Enhance in Filmora for Mac leverages an advanced generative AI model to restore fine details, sharpen soft footage, and produce more realistic textures while preserving a natural look. It is particularly useful for enhancing old recordings.
The feature supports videos up to 3 minutes long, with a maximum frame rate of 60 FPS and a maximum resolution of 3840 × 2160 (4K UHD), allowing you to enhance video quality directly within your editing workflow.
Step 1. Import Your Video and Enable Generative Enhance
Open your project in Filmora for Mac and import the video you want to enhance. Select the clip on the timeline, then open the Video tab from the inspector panel on the right. Scroll to AI Video Enhancer, choose Generative Enhance, and click Generate to begin processing.

Step 2. Review the Enhanced Video and Export
After the AI finishes processing, compare the enhanced clip in the preview window. If you're satisfied with the improved sharpness and detail, click Export to save the enhanced video to your Mac.
