📋 GIT Converter v2.7 - Feature Summary & Changes

🚀 Major New Features Added

🎬 Codec & Container Selection
- AV1 vs HEVC encoding - Choose between next-gen AV1 or mature HEVC
- MKV vs MP4 containers - Flexibility vs device compatibility
- User-controlled output format - Full control over final file type

⚙️ Advanced Quality Control
- Source Quality mode - Bypass quality changes unless required
- CRF options - 16 (near-lossless), 18 (recommended), 20 (balanced)
- Custom bitrate control - Exact bitrate specification for precise file sizes
- Encoder-specific optimization - Different parameters for AV1 vs HEVC

🎮 GPU/Encoder Selection
- Auto-detection - Intelligent hardware detection with benchmarking
- Manual selection - Choose specific GPU/encoder:
  - NVIDIA NVENC (HEVC/AV1)
  - AMD AMF (HEVC/AV1)
  - Intel Quick Sync (HEVC/AV1)
  - CPU encoding (SVT-AV1/x265)
  - Custom encoder selection
- Two-stage interface - Auto-detect first, then option to override

🎨 Enhanced Color Correction
- 8 specialized presets:
  - 2000s DVD Restore
  - 90s Quality Restore
  - VHS Quality Restore
  - Anime Preservation
  - Pink skin tone restoration (Topaz AI fix)
  - Warm/Cool color boosts
- Fixed filter parameters - Resolved unsharp filter matrix size issues

🔧 Technical Improvements

📦 Modular Architecture
- Separated concerns into focused modules:
  - hardware.sh - GPU detection & encoder selection
  - codec.sh - Codec & container options
  - quality.sh - Quality modes & bitrate control
  - filters.sh - Resolution, FPS, color correction
  - encode.sh - FFmpeg execution & monitoring

 Performance Optimizations
- Hardware benchmarking - Tests encoder speed before selection
- Timeout protection - Prevents hanging during encoder tests
- Better error reporting - Shows SUCCESS/FAILED/NOT AVAILABLE status
- Improved timing logic - Cross-platform compatible timing

🖥️ User Experience
- Two-stage workflow - Auto-detect → confirm/override
- Clear menu navigation - Numbered options with validation
- Real-time feedback - Shows what's being tested/selected
- Fixed input validation - Proper regex for multi-digit numbers

🐛 Bug Fixes
- Fixed unsharp filter - Corrected matrix size requirements (odd numbers only)
- Fixed hue parameter - Corrected eq filter syntax
- Fixed encoder detection - Improved hardware detection logic
- Fixed menu display - Resolved command substitution output capture issues

🎯 Key Benefits
- Full user control over encoding parameters
- Hardware optimization with automatic fallbacks
- Professional quality restoration options
- Modular design for easy maintenance
- Cross-platform compatibility (Windows/Linux)
