added ‘Image size’ option.
The higher image size, the worse face-enhancer works. Use higher than 512 value only if the source image is sharp enough and the face does not need to be enhanced.
added ‘Jpeg quality’ option in range 1-100. The higher jpeg quality the larger the output file size
It is useful for small, blurry, undetectable faces, animal faces.

Warning: such frames must be used only with XSeg workflow !
Landmarks cannot be placed on the face precisely, and they are actually used for positioning the red frame.
Try to keep the red frame the same as the adjacent frames.
Now you can replace the head.
Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xr5FHd0AdlQ
Requirements:
Post processing skill in Adobe After Effects or Davinci Resolve.
Usage:
1) Find suitable dst footage with the monotonous background behind head
2) Use “extract head” script
3) Gather rich src headset from only one scene (same color and haircut)
4) Mask whole head for src and dst using XSeg editor
5) Train XSeg
6) Apply trained XSeg mask for src and dst headsets
7) Train SAEHD using ‘head’ face_type as regular deepfake model with DF archi. You can use pretrained model for head. Minimum recommended resolution for head is 224.
8) Extract multiple tracks, using Merger:
a. Raw-rgb
b. XSeg-prd mask
c. XSeg-dst mask
9) Using AAE or DavinciResolve, do:
a. Hide source head using XSeg-prd mask: content-aware-fill, clone-stamp, background retraction, or other technique
b. Overlay new head using XSeg-dst mask
Warning: Head faceset can be used for whole_face or less types of training only with XSeg masking.
XSegEditor: added button ‘view trained XSeg mask’, so you can see which frames should be masked to improve mask quality.
5.XSeg) data_dst/src mask for XSeg trainer - fetch.bat
Copies faces containing XSeg polygons to aligned_xseg\ dir.
Useful only if you want to collect labeled faces and reuse them in other fakes.
Now you can use trained XSeg mask in the SAEHD training process.
It’s mean default ‘full_face’ mask obtained from landmarks will be replaced with the mask obtained from the trained XSeg model.
use
5.XSeg.optional) trained mask for data_dst/data_src - apply.bat
5.XSeg.optional) trained mask for data_dst/data_src - remove.bat
Normally you don’t need it. You can use it, if you want to use ‘face_style’ and ‘bg_style’ with obstructions.
XSeg trainer : now you can choose type of face
XSeg trainer : now you can restart training in “override settings”
Merger: XSeg-* modes now can be used with all types of faces.
Therefore old MaskEditor, FANSEG models, and FAN-x modes have been removed,
because the new XSeg solution is better, simpler and more convenient, which costs only 1 hour of manual masking for regular deepfake.
