Can I have a way to disable debug window?

The additional debug window is too annoying, it's useless for normal user. I hope you'll add a config to disable it.

Shouldn't be showing unless you have an environment variable set to DEVMODE=1

I don't have an environment variable called DEVMODE. But even I set DEVMODE=0, it still show debug window.

OH. Sorry, there is actually a debug mode that adds another pane inside the FastFlix app is what I thought you meant at first.

The console window that opens on launch is needed as it separates the encoding process from the GUI itself. That way if the GUI fails for some reason, the encoding does not automatically die. (It also historically exists because the program that packages the python code into an executable for different platoforms, Pyinstaller, had issues when disabling it.)

So sadly for time being it does need to exist.
