CUI Console error output not readable

[Christian77777]

Using Waifu2x-caffe-cui from a batch file worked well, but now I am typing in a command wrong or something, because I get a error immediately. The problem is the error is in gibberish that I cant understand or translate.

âGâëü[: âéâfâïâtâ@âCâïé¬èJé»é▄é╣é±é┼é╡é╜

This error I think is the same everytime I start the program with the broken script. But I don't know what to check anymore. While if its just a translation issue my computer doesn't know how to handle yet, I feel like if you have gone through the trouble of allowing different languages, you would want the output to be in the correct language as well. I have a little more detail posted here, before I realized it would be best if you could help. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/43774526/windows-console-output-from-waifu2x-caffe-unintelligible

The CUI does not do Unicode, for now use GUI with command line instead. See #87.

That gibberish is a string in Shift-JIS encoding displayed in Code Page 437. It actually is エラー: モデルファイルが開けませんでした, check if there is a directory named models in wherever you put waifu2x-caffe-cui and the current working directory, because it can't find neural network models. Also try using the full path to the executable in your command.

Also, --auto_start, --auto_exit, --no_overwrite, -y does not apply to CUI so you can omit those.

Note: not devs here.

Thank you very much for the help so far. Except now the GUI script outputs the images into /Desired Folder/"Desired Folder (parameters)(moreParameters)"/SourceFolder/ This is even though I set -o "Path\to\Desired" Is this intended, regardless of -o? The CUI version output to the right folder correctly. The translation of the readme is a little confusing.

Have you read that issue carefully you'll notice that -o in GUI behaves this way.

Ok, sorry I missed that the first time I read it, I hope the developer will implement your fix sooner then later, for both CUI unicode, and GUI output Folder
