## Overview

`WatermarkRemover-AI` is a cutting-edge application that leverages AI models for precise watermark detection and seamless removal. Perfect for removing watermarks from AI-generated videos like Sora, Sora 2, Runway, and others.

It uses Florence-2 from Microsoft for watermark identification and LaMA for inpainting to fill in the removed regions naturally. The software features a modern GUI built with PyWebview for an accessible and intuitive experience.

## Installation

### Windows

The setup script downloads a portable Python environment automatically - no system Python required.

```powershell
git clone https://github.com/D-Ogi/WatermarkRemover-AI.git
cd WatermarkRemover-AI
.\setup.ps1
```

After setup, double-click `run.bat` to launch the app.

### Linux / macOS

Requires Python 3.10+ installed on your system.

```bash
git clone https://github.com/D-Ogi/WatermarkRemover-AI.git
cd WatermarkRemover-AI
chmod +x setup.sh
./setup.sh
```

After setup, run `./run.sh` to launch the app.

### Optional: FFmpeg

Install FFmpeg to preserve audio when processing videos:
- **Windows**: Download from [ffmpeg.org](https://ffmpeg.org/download.html) and add to PATH
- **Linux**: `sudo apt install ffmpeg`
- **macOS**: `brew install ffmpeg`

---

## Usage

### GUI Mode

1. Run the app (`run.bat` on Windows, `./run.sh` on macOS/Linux)
2. Select your preferred language and theme from the top-right corner
3. Select your mode (Single File or Batch)
4. Set input and output paths
5. Configure settings as needed
6. Hit **Start Processing**

Your settings are automatically saved and restored on next launch.

### CLI Mode

```bash
# Basic usage
python remwm.py input.png output_folder/

# With options
python remwm.py ./images ./output --overwrite --max-bbox-percent=15 --force-format=PNG

# Process video with two-pass detection
python remwm.py video.mp4 ./output --detection-skip=3 --fade-in=0.5 --fade-out=0.5

# Preview mode (detect without processing)
python remwm.py input.png --preview
```

### CLI Options

| Option | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| `--overwrite` | Overwrite existing files |
| `--transparent` | Make watermark regions transparent (images only) |
| `--max-bbox-percent` | Max detection size as % of image (default: 10) |
| `--force-format` | Force output format (PNG, WEBP, JPG, MP4, AVI) |
| `--detection-prompt` | Custom detection prompt (default: "watermark") |
| `--detection-skip` | Detect every N frames for videos (1-10, default: 1) |
| `--fade-in` | Extend mask backwards by N seconds (for fade-in watermarks) |
| `--fade-out` | Extend mask forwards by N seconds (for fade-out watermarks) |
| `--preview` | Preview detected watermarks without processing |

---

## Video Processing

- **Supported formats:** MP4, AVI, MOV, MKV, FLV, WMV, WEBM
- **Audio preservation:** Requires FFmpeg installed
- **Two-pass mode:** Faster processing with `--detection-skip` > 1
- **Fade handling:** Use `--fade-in` / `--fade-out` for watermarks that appear/disappear gradually
