## Recent Changes
### 2.6.0 (March 9, 2019)
- Complete redesign of configuration file format. The configuration file is now much more flexible and easy to look at.
- Various modifications done to the rest of the program to adapt to the changes made in the configuration file. This eliminated some problems existed in the previous version.
### 2.5.0 (March 4, 2019)
- Added progress bar according to @ArmandBernard 's suggestion.

Enlarge the video by 2 times using OpenCL. Note that `waifu2x-converter-cpp` doesn't support width and height. You'll also have to explicitly specify that the driver to be used is `waifu2x_converter`.
```bash
$ python video2x.py -i sample_input.mp4 -o sample_output.mp4 -m gpu -r 2
$ python video2x.py -i sample_input.mp4 -o sample_output.mp4 -m gpu -r 2 -d waifu2x_converter
```
Corresponding sample configuration is shown below. Note that the `waifu2x_path` is different from the configuration for `waifu2x-caffe`. Instead of the binary path, folder containing extracted `waifu2x-converter-cpp.exe` should be specified.
```json
"waifu2x_converter": {
"waifu2x_converter_path": "C:\\Users\\K4YT3X\\AppData\\Local\\video2x\\waifu2x-converter-cpp",
"block_size": null,

### CPU
Enlarge the video to 1920x1080 using the CPU. You may also use the `-r/--ratio` option. This is potentially much slower than using a GPU.
Enlarge the video to 1920x1080 using the CPU. You may also use the `-r/--ratio` option. This is potentially much slower than using a GPU. The configuration file for this method is similar to the previous methods.
```bash
$ python video2x.py -i sample_input.mp4 -o sample_output.mp4 -m cpu --width=1920 --height=1080
```
### Configuration File Format
Video2X converts the configuration file keys and values directly into options or arguments. For example, in the following sample config, `--scale_width 1920` will be passed to waifu2x.
```json
"waifu2x_caffe": {
...
"scale_width": null,
...
}
```
- Keys having a value of `null` (or `false`, not recommended as it can mean different things in the future) means to ignore this key, thus ignoring both the key and the value.
- Keys having a value of `true` means that this is an option. Only the key will be passed to waifu2x, not the value (e.g. `--quiet`).
