MotionDSP is a Silicon Valley startup with multi-frame video enhancement technology that improves the quality of low resolution videos from consumer devices. It launched a free consumer service, fixmymovie.com, which “fixes” video from mobile phones and digital cameras. FixMyMovie allows you to take those low quality mobile phone or digicam videos and make them better. Automatically improve overall resolution, correct poor lighting conditions, remove the blockiness and more. FixMyMovie service will be available as both a free and premium offering.

Using FixMyMovie’s new premium service, users can download high-resolution versions of their enhanced videos back to their computers. These high-res versions are up to four times the resolution of the original video, up to double the frame-rate, are logo-free and are encoded at high-bitrates to preserve all the video details. Three versions are available: Apple iPod, Microsoft Windows Media 10 and Adobe Flash® 9 formats. The US$2 fee entitles the user to receive all three versions of the enhanced video for use on their computer, mobile device, in post-production or to share.
Paying members are not the only ones to get the improvements. Users of the free service have also been given a bump from 352×288 to 640×480, and gone from a 15MB file size limit to 100MB, making it more friendly for videos shot with digital cameras.
