+# VideoTools Build Scripts
+
+This directory contains scripts for building and managing VideoTools on different platforms.
+
+## Linux
+
+### Install Dependencies
+
+Automatically installs all required dependencies for your Linux distribution:
+
+```bash
+./scripts/install-deps-linux.sh
+```
+
+**Supported distributions:**
+- Fedora / RHEL / CentOS
+- Ubuntu / Debian / Pop!_OS / Linux Mint
+- Arch Linux / Manjaro / EndeavourOS
+- openSUSE / SLES
+
+**Installs:**
+- Go 1.21+
+- GCC compiler
+- OpenGL development libraries
+- X11 development libraries
+- ALSA audio libraries
+- ffmpeg
+
+### Build VideoTools
+
+```bash
+./scripts/build.sh
+```
+
+**Features:**
+- Automatic dependency verification
+- Clean build option
+- Progress indicators
+- Error handling
+
+### Run VideoTools
+
+```bash
+./scripts/run.sh
+```
+
+Runs VideoTools with proper library paths configured.
+
+### Shell Alias
+
+```bash
+source ./scripts/alias.sh
+```
+
+Adds a `VideoTools` command to your current shell session.
+
+## Windows
+
+### Install Dependencies
+
+Run in PowerShell as Administrator:
+
+```powershell
+.\scripts\install-deps-windows.ps1
+```
+
+**Options:**
+- `-UseScoop` - Use Scoop package manager instead of Chocolatey
+- `-SkipFFmpeg` - Skip ffmpeg installation (if you already have it)
+
+**Installs:**
+- Go 1.21+
+- MinGW-w64 (GCC compiler)
+- ffmpeg
+- Git (optional, for development)
+
+**Package managers supported:**
+- Chocolatey (default, requires admin)
+- Scoop (user-level, no admin)
+
+### Build VideoTools
+
+Run in PowerShell:
+
+```powershell
+.\scripts\build.ps1
+```
+
+**Options:**
+- `-Clean` - Clean build cache before building
+- `-SkipTests` - Skip running tests
+
+**Features:**
+- Automatic GPU detection (NVIDIA/Intel/AMD)
+- Dependency verification
+- File size reporting
+- Build status indicators
+
+## Cross-Platform Notes
+
+### CGO Requirements
+
+VideoTools uses [Fyne](https://fyne.io/) for its GUI, which requires CGO (C bindings) for OpenGL support. This means:
+
+1. **C compiler required** (GCC on Linux, MinGW on Windows)
+2. **OpenGL libraries required** (system-dependent)
+3. **Build time is longer** than pure Go applications
+
+### ffmpeg Requirements
+
+VideoTools requires `ffmpeg` to be available in the system PATH:
+
+- **Linux**: Installed via package manager
+- **Windows**: Installed via Chocolatey/Scoop or manually
+
+The application will auto-detect available hardware encoders:
+- NVIDIA: NVENC (h264_nvenc, hevc_nvenc)
+- Intel: Quick Sync Video (h264_qsv, hevc_qsv)
+- AMD: AMF (h264_amf, hevc_amf)
+- VA-API (Linux only)
+
+### GPU Encoding
+
+For best performance with hardware encoding:
+
+**NVIDIA (Recommended for Jake's setup):**
+- Install latest NVIDIA drivers
+- GTX 1060 and newer support NVENC
+- Reduces 2-hour encode from 6-9 hours to <1 hour
+
+**Intel:**
+- Install Intel Graphics drivers
+- 7th gen (Kaby Lake) and newer support Quick Sync
+- Built into CPU, no dedicated GPU needed
+
+**AMD:**
+- Install latest AMD drivers
+- Most modern Radeon GPUs support AMF
+- Performance similar to NVENC
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Linux: Missing OpenGL libraries
+
+```bash
+# Fedora/RHEL
+sudo dnf install mesa-libGL-devel
+
+# Ubuntu/Debian
+sudo apt install libgl1-mesa-dev
+
+# Arch
+sudo pacman -S mesa
+```
+
+### Windows: MinGW not in PATH
+
+After installing MinGW, restart PowerShell or add to PATH manually:
+
+```powershell
+$env:Path += ";C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\lib\mingw\tools\install\mingw64\bin"
+```
+
+### Build fails with "cgo: C compiler not found"
+
+**Linux:** Install gcc
+**Windows:** Install MinGW via `install-deps-windows.ps1`
+
+### ffmpeg not found
+
+**Linux:**
+```bash
+sudo dnf install ffmpeg-free  # Fedora
+sudo apt install ffmpeg       # Ubuntu
+```
+
+**Windows:**
+```powershell
+choco install ffmpeg
+# or
+scoop install ffmpeg
+```
+
+### GPU encoding not working
+
+1. Verify GPU drivers are up to date
+2. Check ffmpeg encoders:
+   ```bash
+   ffmpeg -encoders | grep nvenc  # NVIDIA
+   ffmpeg -encoders | grep qsv    # Intel
+   ffmpeg -encoders | grep amf    # AMD
+   ```
+3. If encoders not listed, reinstall GPU drivers
+
+## Development
+
+### Quick Build Cycle
+
+Linux:
+```bash
+./scripts/build.sh && ./scripts/run.sh
+```
+
+Windows:
+```powershell
+.\scripts\build.ps1 && .\VideoTools.exe
+```
+
+### Clean Build
+
+Linux:
+```bash
+./scripts/build.sh  # Includes automatic cleaning
+```
+
+Windows:
+```powershell
+.\scripts\build.ps1 -Clean
+```
+
+### Build for Distribution
+
+**Linux:**
+```bash
+CGO_ENABLED=1 go build -ldflags="-s -w" -o VideoTools .
+strip VideoTools  # Further reduce size
+```
+
+**Windows:**
+```powershell
+$env:CGO_ENABLED = "1"
+go build -ldflags="-s -w -H windowsgui" -o VideoTools.exe .
+```
+
+The `-H windowsgui` flag prevents a console window from appearing on Windows.
+
+## Platform-Specific Notes
+
+### Linux: Wayland vs X11
+
+VideoTools works on both Wayland and X11. The build scripts automatically detect your display server.
+
+### Windows: Antivirus False Positives
+
+Some antivirus software may flag the built executable. This is common with Go applications. You may need to:
+
+1. Add an exception for the build directory
+2. Submit the binary to your antivirus vendor for whitelisting
+
+### macOS Support (Future)
+
+macOS support is planned but not yet implemented. Required changes:
+
+- Add macOS dependencies (via Homebrew)
+- Add macOS build script
+- Test Fyne on macOS
+- Handle codesigning requirements
+
+## License
+
+VideoTools build scripts are part of the VideoTools project.
+See the main project LICENSE file for details.
