No problem, just glad to help :)

On the application it says a banner needs a (1280x140) but every time I make one it feels stretched.. is there a better resolution for this that fits the whole banner in the offline html page?

Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere;

Once I've built the NSP; Can I convert to NRO somehow and run it via HBMenu? or any other way to run it without installing.

I honestly have no idea how the NSP/NRO conversion works, sorry!

I tried Atmosphere's feature of LayeredFS a NSP file... but it failed to run and gave an 'Error'

may i ask what Homebrew Web Framework is?

Homebrew Web Framework made by Xortroll allows you to build a movie player in a form of html...

This is an app for creating HTML files (using https://gbatemp.net/threads/html-video-template-nx.520956/) and converting files to switch compatible formats. In laymen's terms - You can throw an entire season of Anime/TV at it and then just throw it on your switch to watch anywhere! Source is here: https://github.com/Aida-Enna/VideoSetupNX

Features
- Generates customized HTML from a folder of switch-compatible video files
- Converts video files to Switch-compatible format with optional resizing/subtitles/passthrough and more. (requires ffmpeg installed)
- Burns in subtitles so you can watch your favorite anime anywhere!
- Autocreates episode preview snapshots
- Automatically sets up directories, HTML/CSS/JS files. Just drop your videos into the vids folder!
- A "Check video for Switch compatibility" button. This will check for audio/video codecs, resolution, and other compatiblity factors.

Issues
- None I'm aware of!

Usage
Follow each step, then hit "Generate project". It'll open the output directory when it's complete.
Copy the videos you selected in Step 2 into the "vids" folder, then build the entire output folder (the stuff in the folder, not the folder itself!) with the Homebrew Web Framework.

Requirements
FFMPEG (https://github.com/adaptlearning/adapt_authoring/wiki/Installing-FFmpeg)
You can, alternatively, just download a build from here and put the files in the bin folder in the same place as the VideoSetupNX.exe.
Homebrew Web Framework (Not able to link, sorry!)

Important Information
- Videos with spaces will not work. This seems to be a limitation of the switch's browser rather than this program or the web framework.
- Videos should be encoded with H264/AAC. Other codecs/formats may work, but I know those work 100%.
- Videos must have a resolution less than or equal to 720p. Otherwise, the switch will crash.
- Please remember to checkmark "Ask for a user at launching" in the Homebrew Web Framework. The generated NSP will crash otherwise.

RIP, let me know if you get it working!

Thanks!

Nice work, actually better not to link to my HomebrewWebFramework because it contains illegal files.

Yeah. I wish I could, it would make it a lot easier than having people dig around to find it.

Anyone tried to include *.srt subtitle files? is this even possible?
This won't likely work, hence the option to burn the subs in. If you do get it to work though, lemme know!

Yikes! That's insane.
