Fork of VideoTools focused on player/inspection. VT Player lets us iterate on playback, navigation, and analysis workflows independently of the full suite.

Stu Leak 8a67ce74c8 Fix queue deserialization for formatOption struct
Handle case where formatOption is loaded from JSON as a map instead
of a struct. This prevents panic when reloading saved queue on startup.

VideoTools Prototype

Requirements

  • Go 1.21+
  • Fyne 2.x (pulled automatically via go mod tidy)
  • FFmpeg (not yet invoked, but required for future transcoding)

Running

Launch the GUI:

go run .

Run a module via CLI:

go run . convert input.avi output.mp4
go run . combine file1.mov file2.wav / final.mp4
go run . logs

Add -debug or VIDEOTOOLS_DEBUG=1 for verbose stderr logs.

Logs

  • All actions log to videotools.log (override with VIDEOTOOLS_LOG_FILE=/path/to/log).
  • CLI command videotools logs (or go run . logs) prints the last 200 lines.
  • Each entry is tagged (e.g. [UI], [CLI], [FFMPEG]) so issues are easy to trace.

Notes

  • GUI requires a running display server (X11/Wayland). In headless shells it will log [UI] DISPLAY environment variable is empty.
  • Convert screen accepts drag-and-drop or the "Open File…" button; ffprobe metadata populates instantly, the preview box animates extracted frames with simple play/pause + slider controls (and lets you grab cover art), and the "Generate Snippet" button produces a 20-second midpoint clip for quick quality checks (requires ffmpeg in PATH).
  • Simple mode now applies smart inverse telecine by default—automatically skipping it on progressive footage—and lets you rename the target file before launching a convert job.
  • Other module handlers are placeholders; hook them to actual FFmpeg calls next.
