Just another bullshit…
VIP status ends tomorrow and even then, the application is non-functional!
If you read the validity period the year written is 2027 NOT 2026 I’d be more concerned about the glaring javascript error which looks like a show stopper… this must be an PUBLIC alpha test not even a beta test of the product… lets be honest Ashraf has let us down again with software he has not even tried being extolled beyond reason! He forgot the main reason programs like these are wanted is for content thieves to steal other peoples content or remove AI content generators watermarks to deceive the viewer into thinking the deepfake was real.
[@TK] what’s the odds the copy of FFMPEG.EXE mentioned in that screen capture is LGPL licensed and not either GPLv3 or non free parts compiled in so not legally distributable under any circumstances… they’re probably abusing FFMPEG.EXE to remove the video watermark which is of course NOT AI and does create an ugly blurred box and can only handle one watermark per re-encoding reducing the quality further and further each pass.
I’ve tried this before … and there is still some VIP left so I cannot apply the new 1 year trial license. The program is a 64bit application so the main page:
Supports Windows 7, 8/8.1, 10, and 11 (32-bit and 64-bit)
IS WRONG!
It defaults to installing into a chinese characters named subfolder of C:\Program Files (x86) and is a 64bit application so that is majorly WRONG.
Cannot handle images larger than the window size, no zoom so that is WRONG, only allows one to specify a rectangle for water mark removal and because it cannot display the image correctly I cannot define an out of window area for the watermark… that too is WRONG.
It is a web based application and if it cannot download the webpage it needs from their server it sits there with a blank white rectangle instead of the starting screen to select which wizard you want… that is WRONG it should retry and or produce an error and some user interface to escape the error situation.
found you can add additional rectangle areas for watermarks but it did NOT remove them when the Remove Watermark button was pressed, it immediately popped up a popup window stating it had removed the water mark with no noticable processing time and never has it mentioned what the computational unit was for the supposed AI watermark removal, in fact there is NO mention of AI/CPU or GPU in the program at all! Me thinks this AI is just a marketing lie which is then expounded on untested by Ashraf. Last time I used this it did abuse pirated GPLv3 FFMPEG.EXE to do the video watermark removal that was ugly, no AI and very obvious with no real control over where and when the watermark removal was applied. WRONG
When removing video watermarks one can add extra rectangular areas and by dragging the video progress bar one can set the start and end time of each area BUT each area is handled by a single pass of re-encoding to a temporary .webm encoded intermediate video file using lossy enconding and as experienced before the watermark removal is obvious and ugly and no AI is used. This program is a SCAM, it offers no AI and a very very crude bug ridden User interface. They bring shame to the nick name “Geek” they have very limited computer programming skills even worse than the normal Chinese bedroom developer that tries to sell into the capitalist world to boost their communist lifestyle. The output .webm was over compressed as well with awful compression artifacts… Guess what… UNINSTALLING WITH PREJUDICE.[@TK] another STUPID BUG it defaults the output folder to the users Desktop WRONG
and resets to the Desktop each time you start another session… it does NOT remember your preference WRONG
Anyway back to uninstalling this fraudulent garbage.Installed fine & registration worked flawlessly.
When I tried the program on a jpg image, it did not remove all the watermark, but only blurred some of it.
Uninstalled immediately.
And I did notice that it installed into a directory with chinese characters, so I made sure to delete all of that as well.
Useless piece of software that shouldn’t even see the light of day.
