![Alt text](https://github.com/moi15moi/VideoSubOCR/blob/main/ABBYY%20FineReader%20-%20OCR%20Parameters.png)### Setup for [Tesseract](https://digi.bib.uni-mannheim.de/tesseract/?C=M;O=D)
To be able to select the language you want, you need to download tesseract tessdata.- [tessdata](https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tessdata)
- [tessdata_best](https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tessdata_best)
- [tessdata_fast](https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tessdata_fast)I recommand you to use **tessdata_best** traineddata.
You will need to download the language you need and move it in the right folder.
On Windows, it should be: ``C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME\AppData\Local\Tesseract-OCR\tessdata``## Usage
```console
usage: VideoSubOCR [-h] --input INPUT [--generalSettings GENERALSETTINGS]
[--cropBoxDimension Width_or_Height Width_or_Height] [--cropBoxHeight Height]
[--videosubfinderwxw VIDEOSUBFINDERWXW] [--tesseract [TESSERACT]] [--finereader [FINEREADER]]
[--lang LANG]Video OCR automation.
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--input INPUT, -i INPUT
Video file needed to be OCR.
--generalSettings GENERALSETTINGS
Path to general settings (*.cfg file). By default, VideoSubFinder use the file
settings/general.cfg

CropBox dimension Width x Height. Ex: --cropBoxDimension 1920 1080
--cropBoxHeight Height, -cph Height
CropBox height. It is the height between the video bottom and the cropbox bottom.
--videosubfinderwxw VIDEOSUBFINDERWXW, -vsf VIDEOSUBFINDERWXW
Path to VideoSubFinderWXW.exe if not in variable environments.
--tesseract [TESSERACT], -t [TESSERACT]
If tesseract.exe is in your variable environments, simply use --tesseract. If not, path to
FineCmd.exe
--finereader [FINEREADER], -f [FINEREADER]
If FineCmd.exe is in your variable environments, simply use --finereader. If not, path to
FineCmd.exe

fullname: https://help.abbyy.com/en-us/finereader/15/user_guide/commandline_lang/
```### VideoSubFinder General Settings
I recommand you to always create a setting.
This will allow to have a better ocr
You can save the settings with ``File --> Save Settings As...``For more information about VideoSubFinder, see their [website](https://sourceforge.net/projects/videosubfinder/)
### Alternative to VideoSubFinder General Settings
If you don't want to create a setting, I recommand you to use the file named **VideoPreview.vpy**. To use it, you will need to install [VapourSynth](https://github.com/vapoursynth/vapoursynth/releases/latest) and [VapourSynth-Editor](https://github.com/YomikoR/VapourSynth-Editor/releases/latest).
1. Open VideoPreview.vpy with VapourSynth-Editor.
2. Change ``inputVideo``, ``cropBoxDimension``, ``cropBoxHeight`` to the value you think you need.
3. Press **F5**
4. See if the cropbox is good for you. If not, repeat the step 2 and 3.
