+A PowerShell script to convert videos to the HEVC video format utilizing GPU hardware acceleration using NVEnc for Windows.
 
 The main benefit being that you can save disk space significantly (most of the time).

 ## Space Saving Examples
 
 - 2.5GB MP4 to 500MB HEVC MP4

 ## Minimum System Requirements
 
 - PC with at least 2 cores
-- Recent NVidia or AMD graphics card
+- Recent Nvidia graphics card
 - Enough free disk space for resulting video files
 
-**VITAL: ALWAYS check the resulting video files, ending with "(HEVC)" for expected length and try them out in a video player checking for quality and smooth playback.**
 
 ## Encoding
 
 During encoding (conversion) it is normal for high **CPU** and **GPU** usage. Be sure to only run the script when the PC has no other processes hogging up resources.
 
-The script encodes the files alongside the original with (HEVC) at the end of the filename.
-
-## Decoding
+The script encodes the files alongside the original with '-HEVC' at the end or inplace x265 replacement of the string in the filename.
+After the conversion, a test is performed on the new video file to ensure its integrity.
+If this test is successful, the old file will be deleted. 
+If not, the failed conversion-file is deleted and registered.
 
-The resulting HEVC videos require a more powerful PC to decode and playback, than the original would.
 
 ## Script Usage
 
-1. Download FFmpeg for Windows: https://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/ (see screenshots below)
-2. Extract ffmpeg.exe to a known path/folder
-3. Download **convert_Videos.ps1** and create **video_file_list.txt** alongside it
-4. Make 4 edits in **convert_Videos.ps1** using PowerShell ISE
-5. Copy+paste full paths into **video_file_list.txt** and save
-6. Run **convert_Videos.ps1** to convert to HEVC
+1. Clone this Repository to your computer
+2. Download latest NVEnc for Windows: https://github.com/rigaya/NVEnc/releases
+3. Extract the files to "video-in-place-hevc-converter\encoder\" and replace the old ones
+4. Edit the $videoPath variable in the PowerShell file to point to your video-files folder
+5. Run **convert_Videos.ps1** to convert all video Files on the provided path to HEVC.
