jw signs (E)

Split the Bible videos in sign language into verses. In any language. Sorted by subdirectories. Smartly. Automatically.

It will only split the missing verses. Or of which there is an updated version.

How to use

python jw-signs <input> [options] <output dir>

input

Required. Directory of a specific video file, or the folder where the videos are. Drag and drop it into the command prompt.

options

• --book Select a booknum of the Bible

• --hwaccel Split videos with hardware acceleration (NVIDIA cards only). Transcoding videos with a graphics card is much faster than using the processor, but the size of the videos will be bigger. You must install the latest driver and the software NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit. Check this page to find out if your NVIDIA card is compatible. You should verify in the NVENC and NVDEC tables that your card is H.264 compatible.

  We have tested the GeForce GTX 1060 graphics card and the i3-8100 processor. The results indicate that it is 3.16 times faster, but the size of the videos increases 40%.

output dir

Required. Subdirs will be created with the names of the books of the Bible, where the verses will be cut. Drag and drop it in the command window. Recommendation: use a different dir than the one used in <input>.
