This commit implements two new features:
1. Compare Module:
- New UI module for side-by-side video comparison
- Loads two video files and displays detailed metadata comparison
- Shows format, resolution, codecs, bitrates, frame rate, color info, etc.
- Accessible via GUI module button or CLI: videotools compare <file1> <file2>
- Added formatBitrate() helper function for consistent bitrate display
2. Target File Size Encoding Mode:
- New bitrate mode "Target Size" for convert module
- Allows users to specify desired output file size (e.g., "25MB", "100MB", "8MB")
- Automatically calculates required video bitrate based on:
* Target file size
* Video duration
* Audio bitrate
* Container overhead (3% reserved)
- Implemented ParseFileSize() to parse size strings (KB, MB, GB)
- Implemented CalculateBitrateForTargetSize() for bitrate calculation
- Works in both GUI convert view and job queue execution
Additional changes:
- Updated printUsage() to include compare command
- Added compare button to module grid with pink color
- Added compareFile1 and compareFile2 to appState
- Consistent "Target Size" naming throughout (UI and code)

Implements automatic queue processing when jobs are added from the Convert
module via the 'Add to Queue' button:
Features:
- IsRunning() method added to queue package to check processing status
- 'Add to Queue' button now auto-starts queue if not already running
- Eliminates need to manually open Queue view and click 'Start Queue'
- Seamless workflow: Add video → Queue → Auto-starts conversion
Before:
1. Load video
2. Click 'Add to Queue'
3. Click 'View Queue'
4. Click 'Start Queue'
After:
1. Load video
2. Click 'Add to Queue' (auto-starts!)
3. Load next video
4. Click 'Add to Queue' (already running)
Perfect for batch operations where user loads multiple videos and expects
them to start encoding immediately.
This commit includes several improvements:
Queue System Enhancements:
- Improved thread-safety in Add, Remove, Pause, Resume, Cancel operations

- Auto-set resolution to 720×576 when PAL DVD format selected
- Auto-set framerate to 29.97fps (30) for NTSC, 25fps for PAL
- Added DVD resolution options to resolution selector dropdown
Display Server Improvements:
- Auto-detect Wayland vs X11 display servers in player controller
- Conditionally apply xdotool window placement (X11 only)
UI Improvements:
- Added Pause All, Resume All, and queue reordering buttons
- Fixed queue counter labeling (completed count display)

✓ Multi-region support (NTSC, PAL, SECAM - all region-free)
✓ Comprehensive validation system with actionable warnings
✓ Automatic framerate conversion (23.976p, 24p, 30p, 60p)
✓ Audio resampling to 48 kHz

🤖 Generated with Claude Code
Simplified the approach by removing complex callback logic and using a
simple 500ms timer-based update for the stats bar instead. This eliminates
threading errors completely while keeping the code straightforward.
Changes:
1. Removed queue change callback entirely
2. Added background timer that updates stats bar every 500ms
3. Removed initComplete flag (no longer needed)
4. Simplified setContent() to direct calls
5. Added onClearAll parameter to BuildQueueView()
6. Added ClearAll() method to Queue (removes all jobs)
7. Added Clear All button with DangerImportance styling in queue view
8. Clear Completed button now has LowImportance styling
This approach is much simpler: the UI just polls the queue state
periodically instead of trying to handle callbacks from goroutines.
No more threading errors, less code, easier to understand.

This commit resolves three critical issues:
1. **Fyne Threading Error on Startup**: Fixed by improving setContent() to
check the initComplete flag. During initialization, setContent() calls
SetContent() directly since we're on the main thread. After initialization,
it safely marshals calls via app.Driver().DoFromGoroutine().
2. **Queue Persisting Between Sessions**: Fixed by removing queue persistence.
The shutdown() function no longer saves the queue to disk, ensuring a
clean slate for each new app session.
3. **Queue Auto-Processing**: Fixed by making the queue start in 'paused'
state. Users must explicitly click 'Process Queue' to start batch
conversion. Queue methods PauseProcessing() and ResumeProcessing()
control the paused state.
Changes:
- main.go: Added initComplete flag to appState, improved setContent()
logic, disabled queue persistence in shutdown()
- queue/queue.go: Added paused field to Queue struct, initialize paused=true,
added PauseProcessing()/ResumeProcessing() methods
- ui/queueview.go: Added UI controls for queue processing and clearing

Advanced Mode Encoder Settings:
- Added full video encoding controls: codec (H.264/H.265/VP9/AV1), encoder preset,
manual CRF, bitrate modes (CRF/CBR/VBR), target resolution, frame rate,
pixel format, hardware acceleration (nvenc/vaapi/qsv/videotoolbox), two-pass
- Added audio encoding controls: codec (AAC/Opus/MP3/FLAC), bitrate, channels
