What is Inpainting?
AI-powered technique for filling in or replacing selected areas of an image or video frame while maintaining visual consistency with the surrounding content.
How it works
Inpainting allows you to mask a specific region of an image or video frame and have the AI regenerate that area. The model analyzes the surrounding context and generates content that blends seamlessly with the rest of the image. In video production, inpainting is used for removing unwanted objects, replacing backgrounds, fixing artifacts, and modifying specific elements without regenerating the entire frame. Advanced implementations maintain temporal consistency, meaning the inpainted region looks natural across multiple frames rather than flickering or shifting between frames.
