# nvencFFX 🚀



The **nvencFFX** is a convenient graphical user interface (GUI) application designed to simplify video processing tasks using **FFmpeg** and leveraging **NVIDIA's NVENC hardware encoder**.



This project was primarily developed to explore the capabilities of FFmpeg and NVIDIA's hardware encoders, resulting in a user-friendly tool that streamlines common video manipulation workflows, such as encoding and trimming.



---



## Features 🎥



* **Intuitive GUI:** Easy-to-use interface built with `customtkinter` for a smooth user experience.

* **FFmpeg Integration:** Seamlessly integrates with FFmpeg for powerful video and audio processing.

* **NVIDIA NVENC Support:** Utilizes NVIDIA's NVENC for high-performance, hardware-accelerated video encoding.

* **Video Trimming:** Easily trim video segments by specifying start and end times (HH:MM:SS format).

* **Batch Conversion:** Process multiple video files in one go with the same settings - perfect for converting entire folders of videos.

* **Screen Recording:** Record your screen and system audio directly with NVENC encoding - choose frame rate, codec, and quality settings.

* **Additional Options:** Flexibility to add custom FFmpeg commands for advanced users.

* **Drag-and-Drop Support:** Conveniently add input files by dragging them into the application window.

## Getting Started



### Prerequisites



To use the nvencFFX, you will need:



* **Windows Operating System:** The application is built for Windows 10/11.

* **FFmpeg:** You need to have FFmpeg installed on your system and its executable (`ffmpeg.exe`) accessible in your system's PATH, or specify its path within the application.

FFmpeg Windows builds links: [Windows builds from gyan.dev](https://www.gyan.dev/ffmpeg/builds/) or [Windows builds by BtbN](https://github.com/BtbN/FFmpeg-Builds/releases)

* **NVIDIA GPU with NVENC Support:** For hardware-accelerated encoding, an NVIDIA graphics card with NVENC capabilities is required. Ensure you have the latest NVIDIA drivers installed.



### Installation



#### 1. Download the Executable (Recommended) 🚀



The easiest way to get started is to download the latest release executable (`.exe`) from the [Releases](https://gitlab.com/hadoukez/nvencFFX/-/releases) page.



1.  Go to the [Releases](https://gitlab.com/hadoukez/nvencFFX/-/releases) section of this GitLab repository.

2.  Download the `nvencFFX.exe` file.

3.  Run the executable.



#### 2. Run from Source (For Developers) 🔧



If you want to run the application from its Python source code:



1.  **Clone the repository:**

    ```

    git clone https://gitlab.com/hadoukez/nvencFFX.git

    cd nvencFFX

    ```

2.  **Install dependencies:**

    The project uses `customtkinter`, `pillow`, `CTkToolTip`, `pyaudiowpatch`.

    ```bash

    pip install customtkinter pillow CTkToolTip pyaudiowpatch

    ```

3.  **Run the application:**

    ```

    python "nvencFFX.py"

    ```



### Building Executable (For Developers) 🔧



You can compile the Python script into a standalone Windows executable (`.exe`) using **Nuitka**.



1.  **Install Nuitka:**

    ```

    pip install nuitka

    ```

2.  **Build the executable:**

    Navigate to the project's root directory in your terminal and run the following command. This command configures Nuitka to create a standalone, single-file executable with disabled console mode, include necessary packages, set application metadata, and specify an icon.



    ```

        python -m nuitka --msvc=latest --lto=yes ^

        --standalone --windows-console-mode=disable ^

        --include-package=customtkinter --enable-plugin=tk-inter ^

        --windows-icon-from-ico="nff.ico" ^

        --include-data-file=nff.ico=./ ^

        --include-data-file=nff-help.txt=./nff-help.txt ^

        --include-data-file=nff-about.txt=./nff-about.txt ^

        --include-data-file=nff-license.txt=./nff-license.txt ^

        --include-data-file=LICENSE.txt=./LICENSE.txt ^

        --include-data-dir=presets=./presets ^

        --product-name="nvencFFX" ^

        --product-version="1.7.6" ^

        --file-version="1.7.6" ^

        --file-description="nvencFFX" ^

        --company-name="Deepseek Enjoyer" ^

        --copyright="Copyright (C) 2026 hadouken" ^

        --output-dir=build "nvencFFX.py"

    ```

    The compiled executable will be found in the `build` directory specified by `--output-dir`.

## Usage 🎥



1.  **Launch the application:** Run the `.exe` file or `nvencFFX.py`.

2.  **Select Input File:** Click the "Browse Input" button or drag and drop your video file into the designated area.

3.  **Specify Output File:** Click "Browse Output" to choose where to save your processed video and what to name it.

4.  **Configure Options:**

    * **Trim Video:** Enter the `Start Time` and `End Time` in `HH:MM:SS` format to trim your video.

    * **Encoder:** Select your desired video encoder (e.g., `hevc_nvenc`, `h264_nvenc`, `av1_nvenc`).

    * **Additional FFmpeg Options:** Add any extra FFmpeg commands you need (e.g., `-aq-strength 8; -cq 0; -bf 0 or -bf 4; -intra-refresh 1; -forced-idr 1`).

5.  **Start Processing:** Click the "Convert" button to begin the video encoding.

6.  **Monitor Progress:** The console output within the application will show the FFmpeg progress.
