Jackhole in the red Chevy backed into my neighbors Ram, anyone have a quick way to get the plate number for him?

Which DVR software do you have?  How many megapixels is the camera?  If the detail is not there, you can't enhance or clean it up.  Even the cheaper DVR boxes have a mode to view single frames.

It's reolink garbage, was looking for someone who has an active sub to various video software that "averages" frames to get a better picture of the plate. At night the camera only does a few frames a second.

step 1 is gonna be dont share it through youtube.  Google processes the video and compresses it to save space.  The pixels we get on youtube are not the pixels that are on your original video file.

Step 2 is open the video in VLC and use the interactive zoom feature.  Its not very intuitive at first.  But once you get the hang of it, it works pretty well.  Then go through the video slowly and you can usually piece together license plates.  Usually you dont get the entire plate from a single still frame.

ETA - I downloaded youtube's 1080p stream.  I think I can make out "4S7623".  Something is in front of the 4.  Not sure if its a digit or part of the license plate design.
We may be able to get it nailed down better if you can share the original video file.
