Supports

Windows 8 and up (x64). Technically could support Linux/MacOS but binaries will only be compiled for Windows for now.

Requirements

You will need lsmash, ffms2, libfpng, libimwri, and SubText vapoursynth plugins. For windows I have compiled an executable with the needed runtime libraries.

Example Usage

FrameForge.exe --source "path/Ant-Man.2015.mkv" --encode "path/Ant-Man.2015.Encoded.mkv" --sub-size 12 --indexer lsmash --top-crop 22 --bottom-crop 22 --subtitle-color #00FF00
