Cthulhu configuration (required)

Recently, BoxJelly ditched its internal video player in favor of Cthulhu. This integration is still in development and has some limitations.

As a result, you must configure Cthulhu and BoxJelly before they can be used together. The following configuration is required:

1. Set the BoxJelly framerate. Cthulhu does not report video framerate, so a default of 29.97 is assumed. This is configurable in the BoxJelly settings (Ctrl+,).
2. Set the Cthulhu global duration. Set the appropriate duration for localizations in the Cthulhu "Annotations" settings. Normally, this is 1000/fps. If you notice flickering, you may need to increase this value. If you notice overlapping boxes within the same track, you may need to decrease this value.

Install

From PyPI

BoxJelly is available on PyPI as boxjelly. To install, run:

From source

This project is build with Poetry. To install from source, run (in the project root):

Run

Once BoxJelly is installed, you can run it from the command line:

You must have Cthulhu installed and running before you can use BoxJelly.

Detailed usage is documented in USAGE.
