+# NotEnoughAV1Encodes
+
+NotEnoughAV1Encodes is a small GUI Handler for aomenc and rav1e (AV1). 
+
+NotEnoughAV1Encodes is a tool to make encoding easier and faster for AV1 encoders.
+
+It splits the Source Video into multiple chunks and encode them parallel with the same given settings. 
+At the end it will [Concatenate](https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Concatenate) the chunks into a single video (no audio!).
+
+This tool is Windows only. For multiplatform and more features check out the CLI Tool [Av1an](https://github.com/master-of-zen/Av1an).

+
+### Installation:
+
+1. Download [ffmpeg and ffprobe](https://www.ffmpeg.org/download.html), [aomenc](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/marcomsousa/build-aom/history) or [rav1e](https://github.com/xiph/rav1e) and [NotEnoughAV1Encodes](https://github.com/Alkl58/NotEnoughAV1Encodes/releases). 
+2. Create a new Folder and put all .exe files in them (ffmpeg, ffprobe, aomenc/rav1e and NotEnoughAV1Encodes.exe - you can also specify the location of these files under Settings!)
+
+### System Requirements:
+- [Microsoft .NET Framework 4.7.2](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-framework/net472)
+- [Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable x64](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads)
+
+### Usage:
+1. Open NotEnoughAV1Encodes.exe
+2. Select your video file / Set video output file
+3. Select the Chunk length in seconds. (The Chunks won't be exactly this long. ffmpeg will cut it at the nearest Key-Frame!)
+4. Edit the Encoding settings. (You can save the settings by clicking on "Save Settings". Saving/Loading multiple Presets is possible!)
+5. Click on "Start Encode".  
+
+NEAV1E has a resume feature, with which you can resume cancled encodes. (unfinished chunks will be overwritten!)
+
+If you press on cancel, the program will terminate ALL aomenc/rav1e and ffmpeg processes. Don't press it if you have other encodes/instances running!
+
+If you experience framelosses you may have a slightly corrupted video. Using the option "Reencode Lossless" might help with this issue. (Video will be encoded to utvideo - this may take alot of disk space)
+
+---
+### How does this program work?:
+This programm will split the given video file into roughly equally chunks. This splitting process is not reencoding the video.
+After splitting it will encode the chunks with x amount of workers. When finished, it will mux the encoded files together in one .mkv file.
+You have to add Audio seperatly. 
+
+### Disclaimer:
+- This project is based on my first project [NEE](https://github.com/Alkl58/NotEnoughEncodes)
