A cross-platform Flipnote Encoder and Signer written in .NET.
Built with PPMLib, it uses binaries from ffmpeg for video manipulation.
Features
- 15 Options for Dithering (No Dithering, and 14 different algorithms).
- Automatically creates a thumbnail from frame 1.
- Signs Flipnotes if you have the key for it.
- Lets you embed your own User Information.
User guide
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.
How to use
- 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.
Located inside the root folder is a config.json:
- DitheringMode - Refer to wiki.
- ColorMode - Refer to wiki.
- Accurate - Wether to force 30FPS or not. Fixes audio sync.
- Contrast - How much contrast to add.
- InputFolder - Frames.
- InputFilename input.mp4.
- Split - Wether or not to split the resulting Flipnote.
- SplitAmount - Unused at the moment. Encoder automatically tries to pick the best split amount.
- DeleteOnFinish - Deletes all temp frames.
It won't sign a flipnote if no fnkey.pem exists, you can still play it back with most online players like rakujira though.
