# Encoding Scripts

This is a collection of Python scripts for various video and audio processing tasks, such as encoding video to AV1 and audio to Opus.

## Scripts

-   **[anime_audio_encoder.py](anime_audio_encoder.py)**: A script tailored for encoding anime. It handles Variable Frame Rate (VFR) sources and uses `av1an` for AV1 encoding. Now supports `--autocrop` to automatically crop black bars using cropdetect logic, applied to the UTVideo intermediate file. For more details, see the [Anime Audio Encoder README](README_Anime%20Audio%20Encoder.md).

-   **[tv_audio_encoder.py](tv_audio_encoder.py)**: A script designed for encoding TV show episodes. It uses `alabamaEncoder` for the video encoding process. Now supports `--autocrop` to automatically crop black bars using cropdetect logic, applied to the UTVideo intermediate file. For more details, see the [TV Audio Encoder README](README_TV%20Audio%20Encoder.md).

-   **[MkvOpusEnc.py](MkvOpusEnc.py)**: A cross-platform script for batch-processing audio tracks in MKV files to the Opus format. For more details, see the [MkvOpusEnc README](README_MkvOpusEnc.md).

-   **[cropdetect.py](cropdetect.py)**: An advanced script for intelligently detecting video crop values using parallel processing and smart heuristics. For more details, see the [Cropdetect README](README_cropdetect.md).

For usage instructions, please refer to the individual scripts or the detailed README files.
