Gooey VS HandBrake

The name conflicts with a similar python module that allows one to turn any Python console program into a GUI with one line.

Hey! Cool project! I have a question: why do you dump out sys.argv to a local file in the CWD? [0] tmp.txt is hardly a unique name… or am I missing something and this never triggers?

I love gooey: https://github.com/chriskiehl/Gooey

It allows me to quickly slap a GUI on an existing script that accepts command-line-arguments. In the end, I get the best of both world: Discoverability from the GUI, automation through the script, and automatic feature parity between the two.

Downside: Control over the GUI layout is basic, and only "standard" GUI features work, but I never felt limited when using it.

similar for local/individual usage:

https://github.com/chriskiehl/Gooey - take a python-CLI, make a TK-windows

and then probably even simple dashboarding like streamlit.

Like Gooey?

As for how I'd handle it, I would probably combine both into one command-line program, with all filepaths using pathlib and letting argparse handle the options. That way you could optionally generate a GUI with gooey with little extra effort, although this would also add a dependency.

https://handbrake.fr/ its very easy to use.

nothing actually, i just mentioned it as an encoding frontend.

At this point, use https://handbrake.fr/ to transcode into a higher res MP4 and use as proxy footage,

Maybe you could try HandBrake.

The release itself[0] would have been a better link.
