Queue UI:
- Fix pending job button labels - now shows "Remove" instead of "Cancel"
- Running/paused jobs still correctly show "Cancel" button
Log Viewer:
- Fix app hanging when viewing large conversion logs
- Make file reads asynchronous to prevent blocking UI thread
- Show "Loading log file..." message while reading
- Auto-scroll to bottom when log opens
Windows Console Flashing:
- Add ApplyNoWindow to all missing exec.Command calls
- Fixes command prompt windows flashing during module operations
- Applied to: hwaccel detection, encoder checks, Python backend detection
- Prevents console windows from appearing during upscale module usage
Resolved issue where window would resize itself based on dynamic content
like progress bars and queue updates. Window now maintains the size that
the user sets, regardless of content changes.
**Problem:**
- When progress bars updated or queue content changed, the window would
automatically resize to fit the new content MinSize
- This caused the window to get larger or smaller unexpectedly
- User-set window size was not being preserved
**Solution:**
- Modified setContent() to capture current window size before setting new content
- Restore the window size after SetContent() completes
- This prevents Fyne from auto-resizing based on content MinSize changes
- Window only resizes when user manually drags edges or maximizes
**Impact:**
- Window maintains stable size through all content changes
- Progress bars, queue updates, and module switches no longer trigger resize
- User retains full control of window size via manual resize/maximize
- Improves professional appearance and user experience

Created setup-realesrgan-linux.sh for easy one-command installation:
- Downloads Real-ESRGAN ncnn Vulkan binary from GitHub releases
- Installs to ~/.local/bin/realesrgan-ncnn-vulkan
- Installs all AI models to ~/.local/share/realesrgan/models/
- Sets proper permissions
- Provides PATH setup instructions
Installation:
./scripts/setup-realesrgan-linux.sh
Models included (45MB):
- realesr-animevideov3 (x2, x3, x4) - Anime/illustration upscaling
- realesrgan-x4plus - General photo/video upscaling
- realesrgan-x4plus-anime - Anime-specific upscaling
Tested and working on Fedora 43. Makes AI upscaling fully automated
for Linux users - no manual downloads or configuration needed.
Next step: Add in-app "Install AI Upscaling" button to VideoTools UI
for even easier setup without using terminal.
Renamed "DVD Author" to "Author" for broader disc production workflow.
Created foundation for complete authoring pipeline with three main tasks:
**Module Structure:**
- Tabbed interface with Chapters, Rip DVD/ISO, and Author Disc tabs
- Added authorChapter struct (timestamp, title, auto-detected flag)
- Added author module state fields (file, chapters, threshold, detecting)
**Chapters Tab (Basic UI):**
- File selection with video probing integration
- Scene detection sensitivity slider (0.1-0.9 threshold)
- Placeholder UI for chapter list and controls
- Add Chapter and Export Chapters buttons (placeholders)
- Foundation for FFmpeg scdet scene detection
**Rip DVD/ISO Tab:**
- Placeholder for high-quality disc extraction
- Will support lossless ripping (like FLAC from CD)
- Preserve all audio/subtitle tracks
**Author Disc Tab:**
- Placeholder for VIDEO_TS/ISO creation
- Will support burn-ready output, NTSC/PAL, menus
Changes:
- Modified main.go: Added authorChapter struct, author state fields,
showAuthorView(), buildAuthorView(), buildChaptersTab(),
buildRipTab(), buildAuthorDiscTab()
- Modified internal/modules/handlers.go: Renamed HandleDVDAuthor to
HandleAuthor with updated comment
- Updated DONE.md with Author module skeleton details
Next steps: Implement FFmpeg scene detection, chapter list UI,
and DVD/ISO ripping functionality.
Added advanced audio channel remixing features for videos with imbalanced
left/right audio channels (e.g., music in left ear, vocals in right ear).
New audio channel options using FFmpeg pan filter:
- Left to Stereo: Copy left channel to both speakers
- Right to Stereo: Copy right channel to both speakers
- Mix to Stereo: Downmix both channels together evenly
- Swap L/R: Swap left and right channels
Changes:
- Updated audioChannelsSelect dropdown with 8 options (was 4)
- Implemented pan filter logic in all 4 FFmpeg command builders:
- buildFFmpegCommandFromJob (main convert)
- DVD encoding function
- Convert command builder
- Snippet generation
- Removed unused "os" import from internal/convert/ffmpeg.go
- Updated DONE.md with audio channel remixing feature
The pan filter syntax allows precise channel routing:
- pan=stereo|c0=c0|c1=c0 (left to both)
- pan=stereo|c0=c1|c1=c1 (right to both)
- pan=stereo|c0=0.5*c0+0.5*c1|c1=0.5*c0+0.5*c1 (mix)
- pan=stereo|c0=c1|c1=c0 (swap)
- App is a work in progress, nothing is ever 'final'
- Changed size references to just state the values without 'final'
- More accurate and less presumptive
- Extract reset defaults logic to resetConvertDefaults function
- Add setTargetFileSize helper with syncing guard
- Add syncingTargetSize flag to prevent update loops
- Consolidate reset button handlers to call shared function
- Improves code organization and maintainability
UI Scaling Improvements:
- Reduce module tiles from 160x80 to 150x65
- Reduce title from 20 to 18
- Reduce queue tile from 140x50 to 120x40
- Reduce category labels to 12px
- Reduce padding from 8 to 4px
- Remove scrolling, everything fits in 800x600
Preset UX Improvements:
- Move "Manual" to bottom of all preset dropdowns
- Default bitrate preset: "2.5 Mbps - Medium Quality"
- Default target size: "100MB"
- Manual input fields hidden by default
- Show manual fields only when "Manual" selected
Encoding Preset Order:
- Reverse order: veryslow first, ultrafast last
- Better quality options now appear first
- Applied to both simple and advanced mode
UI Scaling:
- Reduce module tiles from 220x110 to 160x80
- Reduce title size from 28 to 20
- Reduce queue tile from 160x60 to 140x50 with smaller text
- Reduce section padding from 14 to 8 pixels
- Remove extra padding wrapper around tiles
Header Layout Improvements:
- Use border layout with title on left, controls on right
- Compact button labels: "☰ History" → "☰", "Run Benchmark" → "Benchmark"
- Eliminates wasted space in header
Queue Behavior Fix:
- "Clear Completed" always returns to main menu (not last module)
- "Clear All" always returns to main menu
- Prevents unwanted navigation to convert module after clearing
All changes work together to fit app within 800x600 default window
- Wrap module sections in NewVScroll container
- Use border layout with fixed header and scrollable content
- Allows all modules to be accessible within 800x600 window
- Header and controls remain visible while content scrolls
- Replace layout.NewHBoxLayout() with container.NewHBox() for header
- Replace layout.NewVBoxLayout() with container.NewVBox() for body
- Prevents unwanted stretching and improves alignment with rest of UI
- Elements now use natural sizing instead of filling available space
- Remove Show()/Hide() calls from Layout() method
- These methods must only be called from main UI thread
- Layout() can be called from any thread during resize/redraw
- Show/Hide logic remains in Refresh() which uses DoFromGoroutine
Fixes threading warnings from Fyne when stats bar updates
