Extended the benchmark system to maintain a complete history of all
benchmark runs (up to last 10) with full results for each encoder/preset
combination tested.
Features:
- Stores complete benchmark run data including all test results
- History browser UI to view past benchmark runs
- Click any run to see detailed results for all encoders tested
- Compare performance across different presets and encoders
- Apply recommendations from past benchmarks
- Automatic history limit (keeps last 10 runs)
UI Changes:
- Renamed "Benchmark" button to "Run Benchmark"
- Added "View Results" button to main menu
- New benchmark history view showing all past runs
- Each run displays timestamp, recommended encoder, and test count
- Clicking a run shows full results with all encoder/preset combinations
Data Structure:
- benchmarkRun: stores single test run with all results
- benchmarkConfig: maintains array of benchmark runs
- Saves to ~/.config/VideoTools/benchmark.json
This allows users to review past benchmark results and make informed
decisions about which encoder settings to use by comparing FPS across
all available options on their hardware.
Implemented a full benchmark system that automatically detects available
hardware encoders, tests them with different presets, measures FPS
performance, and recommends optimal settings for the user's system.
Features:
- Automatic test video generation (30s 1080p test pattern)
- Hardware encoder detection (NVENC, QSV, AMF, VideoToolbox)
- Comprehensive encoder testing across multiple presets
- Real-time progress UI with live results
- Performance scoring based on FPS metrics
- Top 10 results display with recommendation
- Config persistence for benchmark results
- One-click apply to use recommended settings
UI Components:
- Benchmark button in main menu header
- Progress view showing current test and results
- Final results view with ranked encoders
- Apply/Close actions for recommendation
Integration:
- Added to main menu between "Benchmark" and "Logs" buttons
- Saves results to ~/.config/VideoTools/benchmark.json
- Comprehensive debug logging for troubleshooting
This allows users to optimize their encoding settings based on their
specific hardware capabilities rather than guessing which encoder
will work best.
