Video has rapidly become a cornerstone of modern communication, whether it's through social media, professional presentations, or content creation for personal projects. The quality of your video can greatly influence the viewer's perception and engagement. Therefore, enhancing the quality of the video content you've already created is crucial. 

This guide is dedicated to providing you with practical steps to quickly improve the quality of your existing videos by using [Tencent Media Processing Service](https://mps.live/), ensuring they meet professional standards and capture your audience's attention. Whether it's for your YouTube channel, online course, or simply sharing with friends and family.

The key factors that contribute to video quality include:

1. **Resolution**: The number of pixels in each dimension that a video contains. Higher resolutions like 1080p or 4K offer more detail.
2. **Frame Rate**: The frequency at which consecutive images called frames appear on a display. A higher frame rate (measured in frames per second or fps) results in smoother motion.
3. **Color Depth**: How many colors the video can display. More colors mean higher color fidelity and a more vibrant image.
4. **Noise**: Random variations of brightness or color information in images. Less noise results in a cleaner image, especially in low light conditions.

## Try demo

[Tencent MPS](https://mps.live/products/enhancement) has powerful video enhancement capabilities, including super-resolution, frame interpolation, color enhancement, noise reduction. We can first try the [demo](https://mps.live/demo/enhancement/repair) to experience the basic functionalities of video enhancement.

The demo divides video enhancement into four different pages based on scenes, with each scene having different enhancement options. The templates have already been configured.

First, we select a video file that needs enhancement and upload it.

Then, we click the button to initiate the task and wait for some time. 

![Start Processing](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/7pd42uhopq0e2e7fkmg2.png)

Afterward, we can see the enhanced results. The execution time of the task depends on the length of the video. The longer the video, the longer the processing time.

To download the processed video, please follow these steps:

1. Click on the "History" in the top right corner.

2. Find the corresponding task.
3. Click the download button to download the video.

Now you can enjoy the quality-enhanced video locally.

## Using MPS Console

If you have a large number of videos that need to be processed in batches, you can consider using the [MPS console](https://console.tencentcloud.com/mps). The MPS console provides the functionality of VOD orchestration. Uploading files will automatically trigger the orchestration execution and output the results to the specified location.

After successfully logging into the [MPS console](https://console.tencentcloud.com/mps), first, create a video enhancement template by clicking on "[Templates > Audio/Video Enhancement > Create template](https://console.tencentcloud.com/mps/templates/enhs/enh)".

![Create template](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/07tpshcqiurnz3zzo0j8.png)

Follow the instructions on the page to fill in the template parameters and select the specific video enhancement details according to your needs, such as super-resolution, HDR, color enhancement, detail enhancement, and so on.

Then click on "[Orchestrations > VOD Orchestration > Create VOD Orchestration](https://console.tencentcloud.com/mps/workflows/vod/add)". On this page, create an orchestration and configure the relevant information based on your business scenario requirements. The video files can be stored on AWS or Tencent Cloud COS, so choose according to your needs.

Configure actions by adding an Audio/Video Enhancement node, then edit the node and select the newly created video enhancement template.

For more detailed tutorials, you can refer to [VOD Orchestration Guide](https://mps.live/document/58242).

After creating the orchestration, it will be disabled by default. Now let's enable it. Once the orchestration is enabled, automatic task triggering will be activated. When a new file is uploaded to the trigger bucket configured in the orchestration, the system will automatically initiate the processing task without the need to manually create tasks in the console.

Now, all you need to do is upload the video file to the trigger bucket configured in the orchestration. This will automatically initiate the task to process the video. Just wait for the new video file to be generated. According to the output configuration in the orchestration, you can find the new video file in the corresponding bucket.
