Quickstart

  • download and unzip the latest release
  • place the video called input.mp4 in the frames folder, make sure no other files exist there
  • Replace the Dummy Flipnote with one of your own. This will embed your User Information
  • (Optional) place the Flipnote Studio Private Key (good luck getting that one) called fnkey.pem in the same folder as the exe

Cross-Platform Information

Here are the ways you can run the Flipnote Encoder:

  • Windows: Just double click the .exe
  • Linux: ./FlipnoteEncoder in a terminal, or double click the .sh script
  • OSX: ./FlipnoteEncoder in a terminal I'd assume.

config.json

Located inside the Root folder is a config.json. Should it not exist, a new one will be created by the program. Here you can see all the config Items with a description of how to use them:

  • "DitheringMode": 1, - refer to wiki
  • "ColorMode": 1, - refer to wiki
  • "Accurate": true, - Wether to force 30FPS or not. Fixes audio sync.
  • "Contrast": 0, - How much contrast to add
  • "InputFolder": "frames",
  • "InputFilename": "input.mp4",
  • "Split": false, - Wether or not to split the resulting Flipnote.
  • "SplitAmount": 2, - Unused at the moment. Encoder automatically tries to pick the best split amount
  • "DeleteOnFinish": true - I don't even think i added a case for this. Why wouldn't you want this? Deletes all temp frames.

Expect bugs and report them in the issues section please.

it won't sign a flipnote if no fnkey.pem exists, you can still play it back with most online players like rakujira though.

I am not responsible for how this tool is used. It is against Sudomemo TOS to upload encoded flipnotes there. Consider Freenote instead :)
