All UI updates from the benchmark goroutine were causing threading
errors because they weren't wrapped in DoFromGoroutine. Fixed:
- UpdateProgress: progress bar and label updates
- AddResult: adding result cards to the display
- SetComplete: final status updates
These methods are called from background goroutines running the
benchmark tests, so all UI updates must be dispatched to the main
thread using fyne.CurrentApp().Driver().DoFromGoroutine().
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.
