Its **Video Quality Enhancement** and **Smart Erase** solutions were winners in the Streaming category and Intelligent Technology category. [[ **Diffusion Transformer (DiT) for Video Quality Enhancement and Super-Resolution in Live Streaming** This AI-driven DiT enhancement technology delivers high-fidelity visual quality across diverse use cases such as OTT platforms, live e-commerce, gaming, short-form video, AIGC content generation, and professional video production – beyond the typical livestreaming use case. Powered by cutting-edge DiT architecture—advancing beyond conventional CNN and GAN approaches—it delivers authentic, natural texture details and industry-leading real-time performance across video enhancement scenarios, setting a new global benchmark for video enhancement. Designed for the global-market, its capabilities include real-time 4K super-resolution— critical for high-resolution devices and immersive experiences across diverse use cases—compression artifact removal to eliminate transmission glitches, 120 FPS frame interpolation for smooth playback, targeted ROI (Face/Text) enhancement, and SDR- to-HDR and color enhancement to deliver lifelike visuals resonating with global audiences. With flexible visual tuning driven by self-developed AI vision large models, the platform smoothly adapts to all kinds of business scenarios such as the low-latency demands of real-time live streaming, steadily improving key operational outcomes, including user quality of experience (QoE), platform watch time, and overall advertising performance. [[ **Smart Erase in the Global Distribution of Short Dramas and E-commerce** Complementing the DiT enhancement solution, Smart Erase is an intelligent video processing tool that enables seamless blurring, mosaicking or removal of logos, subtitles, faces and license plates. It automates privacy protection for sensitive visual elements, and is widely adopted by short drama platforms, cross-border e- commerce brands and independent media studios to streamline global content localization and expand content reach worldwide. Its core capabilities include AI-driven subtitle removal, logo removal, and privacy protection (automatic blur/mosaicking of faces and license plates). Built on Latent Space Transformers, its end-to-end generative architecture ensures seamless restoration, while flexible modes (Automatic, Designated Region, Hybrid) and batch processing support massive video volumes, integrating with OCR, translation, and AI dubbing for efficient multi-language content localization. [[ With over 20 years of experience in audio and video technologies, Tencent Cloud Media Services provide industry-leading and comprehensive one-stop solutions from content creation, media processing, to streaming and secure, accelerated distribution. The services cover a full range of scenario-specific media AI capabilities, including industry-leading AI visual enhancement (frame interpolation, super resolution, SDR- to-HDR, color enhancement), AI-driven content generation (text-to-image, image-to- image, reference-based multi-image generation, text-to-video, image-to-video), AI- enhanced workflow tools (object removal, translation, voice cloning & dubbing, large model understanding, highlight auto-clipping) , among others. "Securing two NAB Show awards is a testament to Tencent Cloud’s dedication to building AI-driven video technologies that solve the most pressing challenges facing global media, e-commerce, and gaming partners," said** Gary Hsu, Head of Media**  **Solutions, North America**.
