Seed does not appear to be random and changing it does not change the output

[lrq3000]

I tried to generate multiple times and I always get the same output image, whether the seed is set to -1 or any other value, so it seems the seed is hardcoded somewhere in the code, this seems like a bug unless I'm mistaken (assuming all other parameters are fixed).

hmm. I'll dig in at some stage and see what's happening. Added to my to-do list.

The app is a port of https://huggingface.co/spaces/finegrain/finegrain-image-enhancer to local via Pinokio, as per the README, so it's doing whatever it does.

i tested an image with different set seeds on the HF demo and can't see a difference between them. So might be an issue there.

Thanks for the report! Will look into it when i get a chance.

Oh OK thank you for investing this issue! Then I will also report the issue upstream, along with a few others, such as the app strangely downscaling already large images.

The downscaling is part of the process for sure. I think partly due to the first upscaling pass being ESRSGAN x4; and partly due to it being a demo project rather than intended as a fully functional upscaling app. They direct people to their paid image editor app from the HF demo ;)
