Disable Floating Results For Image Auto-Optimizer #26

Closed DmacMcgreg closed 4 months ago

DmacMcgreg commented 5 months ago

First of all, want to say this is one of my favourite apps! Simple idea, and near flawless execution!

Right now I'm using this to optimize a constant flow of image screenshots of my screen. This results in Clop popping up every few seconds with new results.. Can we add an option per-folder to not show the results and just have it work silently in the background?

Thank you!

Interesting use case. Is this like a home made Rewind.ai ?

I'll look into it, could be easy enough to add.

Hint: you can use ffmpeg to compress all the images a lot more into an efficient HEVC video stream:

# let's say you're inside a folder with images named "image_000001.png"

ffmpeg -f image2 -framerate 30 -i image_%06d.png -vcodec hevc_ videotoolbox -tag:v hvc1 -q:v 40 image_stream.mp4

You can play with the quality value -q:v to get better quality or better compression. Larger numbers mean better quality but more file size.

Exactly, theres a few OpenSource ones floating around on the internet these days.

Also that could be a great idea, I'll send it to the maintainers.

This can now be done in v2.6.0:

Amazing, still one of my favourite apps. Appreciate you all!

@alin23 Any chance that the floating results could be turned on per-folder? Its still nice to show floating results when using clipboard optimization.

Per-folder settings are in my todo list, but I really need a break now. I hope to get to it soon. Thanks for the kind words!
