This commit includes three critical bug fixes and Windows build improvements:
**Bug Fixes:**
1. **Queue Conversion Progress Tracking** (main.go:1471-1534)
- Enhanced executeConvertJob() to parse FPS, speed, and ETA from FFmpeg output
- Queue jobs now show detailed progress metrics matching direct conversions
- Stats stored in job.Config for display in the conversion stats bar
2. **AMD AMF Hardware Acceleration** (main.go)
- Added "amf" to hardware acceleration options
- Support for h264_amf, hevc_amf, and av1_amf encoders
- Added AMF-specific error detection in FFmpeg output parsing
3. **DVD Format Resolution Forcing** (main.go:1080-1103, 4504-4517)
- Removed automatic resolution forcing when DVD format is selected
- Removed -target parameter usage which was forcing 720×480/720×576
- Resolution now defaults to "Source" unless explicitly changed
- DVD compliance maintained through manual bitrate/GOP/codec parameters
**Windows Build Improvements:**
- Updated build.bat to enable CGO (required for Fyne/OpenGL)
- Added automatic GCC/MinGW-w64 detection and installation
- Automated setup via winget for one-command Windows builds
- Improved error messages with fallback manual instructions
**Documentation:**
- Added comprehensive Windows setup guides
- Created platform.go for future platform-specific code
- Updated .gitignore for Windows build artifacts
All changes tested and working. Ready for production use.

Features:
- FPS counter in conversion status showing real-time encoding speed
- Job queue now displays FPS, encoding speed (e.g., "1.2x"), and ETA for running conversions
- Copy Comparison button exports side-by-side metadata comparison report
- Auto-compare checkbox in Convert module - automatically loads Compare view after conversion
- Convert Now properly adds job to queue and displays in Job Queue with live stats
- Module badge colors in job queue now match main menu tile colors
- Fixed fullscreen compare window sizing (reduced player dimensions to prevent overflow)
Bug Fixes:
- Fixed queue state management - only one job runs at a time (prevents multiple jobs showing "running")
- Fixed Compare module slot assignment - single video drops now fill empty slot instead of overwriting
- Fixed job queue scroll rubber banding (no longer jumps back to top)
- Enhanced crop detection validation for WMV/AVI formats with dimension clamping and bounds checking
Documentation:
- VT_Player integration notes with API requirements for keyframing and trim features
- LosslessCut feature analysis for Trim module inspiration
- Video metadata guide covering MP4/MKV custom fields and NFO generation
- Trim module design specification
- Compare fullscreen mode documentation
- Updated VIDEO_PLAYER_FORK.md to mark fork as completed
Technical Changes:
- Added state tracking for FPS, speed, and ETA (main.go:197-199)
- Enhanced queue processJobs() to check for running jobs before starting new ones
- Improved Compare module drag-and-drop logic with smart slot assignment (both code paths)
- Added deferred scroll position restoration to prevent UI jumping
- Job queue Config map now carries conversion stats for display

Added comprehensive documentation on Linux/GNOME compatibility:
Known Issues:
- Double-click titlebar maximize is Fyne framework limitation
- Provided workarounds: Super+Up, maximize button, F11
- Window sizing issues have been fixed
Cross-platform goals:
- Smooth operation on Linux, macOS, Windows
- Single codebase with Fyne framework
- Respect native window manager behaviors
Testing matrix:
- GNOME/Fedora verified
- X11 and Wayland support
- Should work on KDE, XFCE, etc.
Development guidelines:
- Test on both X11 and Wayland
- Consider mouse and keyboard workflows
- Respect window manager tiling
- HiDPI display support
This documentation helps users understand current limitations
and provides context for cross-platform development priorities.
Created comprehensive plan for extracting video player into separate project:
Goals:
- Independent development of player features
- Tighter, more polished video controls
- Reusable component for other projects
- Keep VideoTools focused on video processing
Migration strategy:
1. Extract internal/player to new repo
2. Create clean API interface
3. Update VideoTools to use external package
4. Enhance controls in separate project
Future player improvements:
- Thumbnail preview on seek hover
- Frame-accurate stepping
- Playback speed controls
- Better keyboard shortcuts
- Timeline markers and more
This separation will allow both projects to evolve independently
while keeping the VideoTools codebase lean and focused.
Major refactoring to improve code organization and enhance UI:
Architecture:
- Split monolithic main.go into modular internal/ package structure
- Created internal/logging for centralized logging system
- Created internal/modules for module handler functions
- Created internal/ui for UI components and layouts
- Created internal/utils for shared utility functions
UI Enhancements:
- Implemented rainbow gradient across 8 module buttons (violet→red)
- Increased module button text size to 20 for better readability
- Fixed text centering on module tiles
- Converted Simple/Advanced mode toggle to tabs to save vertical space
- Added vertical scrollbars to prevent UI overflow
- Added metadata copy button (📋) to copy all metadata to clipboard
Video Processing:
- Fixed aspect ratio conversion to default to center-crop behavior
- Added 6 aspect handling modes: Auto, Crop, Letterbox, Pillarbox, Blur Fill, Stretch
- Fixed blur fill to maintain source resolution with padding (no scaling)
- Ensured all FFmpeg filters produce even-numbered dimensions for H.264
Known Issues:
- WMV files still produce FFmpeg error 234 during aspect conversions
(requires codec-specific handling in future update)
