Improving CodeFormer videos

  It is theoretically possible to extend "VsViewer" so that can be launched using the command line like "VSpipe" ?

if your rewrite most of it,... yes

Hello Selur,

  I applied some changes to vsViewer released in your github repo: https://github.com/Selur/vsViewer/tree/master

 The usage is the following
 
 

vsViewer --nogui [optional] --y4m [optional] --i [python script]  --enc [encoder path] --cmd [encode command]

where:

--nogui   : if present the encoding gui will not be visible
--y4m     : if present will be provided the y4m header
--i       : input vapoursynth script
--enc     : encoder program
--cmd     : encoder command

Examples:

1) Encoding with encoding Gui and with y4m header (*)
vsViewer.exe --y4m --i "VideoScript.vpy"  --enc "x265.exe" --cmd "- --y4m  --crf 18 --preset fast --output-depth 10 -o \"{sd}\{sn}_x265_gui.hevc\""

2) Encoding with no-Gui and with y4m header (*)
vsViewer.exe --gui --y4m --i "VideoScript.vpy"  --enc "x265.exe" --cmd "- --y4m  --crf 18 --preset fast --output-depth 10 -o \"{sd}\{sn}_x265_gui.hevc\""


(*) for script and encoder pass the full path not only the name as in this example

 
  I  like the Gui enabled version please try it, in case of no-Gui I was unable to write any message on Console (I have only a limited knowledge of Qt).

  I attached an archive with only the changed files and with a build in debug mode of vsViewer.

  I tried to don't apply too many changes, more important this version is compatible with the version release with Hybrid.

  I hope that this modded version can be useful (you can abandon "vspipe" and all the encoding will be under your control)
