SlimeCodec Convert v0.5.0-trial (Windows x64, CLI only)
=======================================================

NormMAP-guided H.264/AV1 re-encoder — commutator-norm driven bit allocation.

This is the TRIAL build. The "SLIMECODEC TRIAL" watermark is drawn directly
into the Y plane by the binary itself (pure Rust). NO ffmpeg.exe is needed
or shipped — the bundled DLLs are the FFmpeg shared libraries that
SlimeCodec uses internally for video decode/encode.

CONTENTS
--------
slimecodec-convert.exe   — single binary, contains the watermark logic
*.dll                    — FFmpeg n7.1 shared libraries (used by the
                           binary's own ffmpeg-next bindings for codec
                           work; do not delete)
README.txt               — this file

INSTALL
-------
  1. Unzip slimecodec-convert-win64-cli-v0.5.0-trial.zip
  2. Open Command Prompt or PowerShell in the unzipped folder
  3. .\slimecodec-convert.exe --help

The DLLs must stay in the same folder as the .exe. Nothing else needs to
be installed (no ffmpeg PATH setup, no separate downloads).

USAGE
-----
  .\slimecodec-convert.exe input.mp4 -o output.mp4 --strength 0.15 --adaptive

The first run starts the 30-day trial and locks the binary to this machine
(via HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Cryptography\MachineGuid).

PRODUCTION
----------
The paid build skips the in-process watermark draw entirely.
