A command-line tool implementing RIFE (Real-Time Intermediate Flow Estimation) for video frame interpolation using the ncnn neural network inference framework with Vulkan GPU acceleration. It ships portable binaries and models for Windows, Linux, and macOS, requiring no CUDA or PyTorch runtime.

Use cases

  • interpolate frames in a video to increase its frame rate
  • generate an in-between frame from two input images
  • convert 24fps video to smooth 48fps or 60fps
  • slow-motion video creation via frame interpolation
  • run AI frame interpolation on GPU without CUDA or PyTorch
  • batch interpolate a directory of extracted video frames

When to choose

  • you need portable, dependency-free frame interpolation binaries across Windows/Linux/macOS
  • you want GPU-accelerated interpolation on Intel/AMD/Nvidia hardware via Vulkan
  • you plan to combine with FFmpeg for full video upscaling of frame rate

When to avoid

  • you need a Python library API rather than a CLI tool
  • you require CUDA-optimized performance with PyTorch-based RIFE implementations
  • you work only with CPU-only machines without Vulkan support
