🇵🇸 🇸🇦 Greetings

I am my thoughts, and my thoughts are me (you are your thoughts too):

Living on autopilot will make you diverge

Humble yourself before life humbles you

Don't be consumed by consumerism

deblack's Issues

Where do output files go? I can't tell if this is working?

• Python 3
• Git installed
• Deblack installed

Opened cmd.exe from deblack folder, ran command:
deblack C:\Users\jbrow\Desktop\New folder (3)*.mp4

also tried
deblack "C:\Users\jbrow\Desktop\New folder (3)\OG_RealESRGAN-2x.mp4"

and
deblack C:\Users\jbrow\Desktop\New folder (3)\OG_RealESRGAN-2x.mp4

Nothing happens.
No indication it did or didn't work. Just moves onto the next line.
And since there's no indication of where output files are sent - I'm in the dark as to whether or not anything is working or not.

Assuming they output to the same location as the input -
What's your best guess as to why nothing is outputting with no error?

Code throwing out FileNotFoundError: [WinError 206] The filename or extension is too long with no discernible reason

No matter the video, nor it's path, it spits out the same error. If the devs or any user is watching, I'd appreciate an answer.

Thank you

Found your comment on StackExchange from 8 years ago... lo and behold the repo and script is still good! Really appreciate your help making vintage B reels usable!
