# VideoTools Cross-Platform Compatibility Guide
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
VideoTools has been enhanced to provide seamless support for Arch Linux and Windows 11, with intelligent GUI detection and adaptive window sizing across both platforms.
|
|
|
|
## 🐧 Arch Linux Enhancements
|
|
|
|
### Installation Improvements
|
|
|
|
The `scripts/install.sh` script has been enhanced with:
|
|
|
|
#### GUI Environment Detection
|
|
- **Display Server Detection**: Automatically detects Wayland vs X11
|
|
- **Desktop Environment**: Detects GNOME, KDE, XFCE, i3, Sway
|
|
- **GPU Detection**: Identifies NVIDIA, AMD, Intel graphics cards
|
|
- **Driver Verification**: Checks if appropriate drivers are loaded
|
|
|
|
#### Enhanced Dependency Management
|
|
```bash
|
|
# The enhanced install function provides detailed feedback:
|
|
🔧 Detecting Arch Linux configuration...
|
|
Display Server: Wayland detected
|
|
Desktop Environment: GNOME
|
|
GPU: NVIDIA detected - ensuring proper driver setup
|
|
💡 Install NVIDIA drivers: sudo mhwd -a pci nonfree 0300
|
|
📦 Installing core packages...
|
|
✅ Arch Linux core dependencies installed
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Package Installation
|
|
- **Core Dependencies**: FFmpeg, GStreamer with development headers
|
|
- **Display Server Specific**: Wayland protocols or X11 server packages
|
|
- **Desktop Environment Specific**: GNOME, KDE, XFCE packages when detectable
|
|
- **GPU Drivers**: Recommendations and verification for NVIDIA/AMD/Intel
|
|
|
|
### Testing
|
|
|
|
Run the test script to verify Arch Linux support:
|
|
```bash
|
|
./scripts/test-cross-platform.sh arch
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 🪟 Windows 11 Enhancements
|
|
|
|
### Native Installation (No WSL Required)
|
|
|
|
The `scripts/install-deps-windows.ps1` script now provides:
|
|
|
|
#### Windows 11 Detection
|
|
- **Build Number Detection**: Distinguishes Windows 11 (22000+) from Windows 10
|
|
- **Edition Detection**: Identifies Home, Pro, Education editions
|
|
- **Display Scaling**: Automatic DPI scaling detection
|
|
- **GPU Analysis**: Vendor, model, and DirectX 12 support detection
|
|
|
|
#### Enhanced PowerShell Functions
|
|
```powershell
|
|
# Get comprehensive Windows 11 information
|
|
$win11Info = Get-Windows11Info
|
|
$win11Info.IsWindows11 # boolean
|
|
$win11Info.DisplayScale # e.g., 1.25, 1.5, 2.0
|
|
$win11Info.GPUInfo.Name # e.g., "NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070"
|
|
$win11Info.GPUInfo.SupportsDirectX12 # boolean
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Native Dependency Installation
|
|
- **Chocolatey Integration**: Automatic installation and management
|
|
- **Native Dependencies**: FFmpeg, GStreamer, Go for Windows
|
|
- **GPU Optimization**: Vendor-specific driver recommendations
|
|
- **No WSL Dependency**: Pure Windows installation
|
|
|
|
### GPU Driver Recommendations
|
|
- **NVIDIA**: GeForce Experience updates, Game Ready Drivers
|
|
- **AMD**: Adrenalin Software updates
|
|
- **Intel**: Windows Update driver integration
|
|
|
|
### Testing
|
|
|
|
Run the test script to verify Windows 11 support:
|
|
```powershell
|
|
# From Git Bash (on Windows)
|
|
./scripts/test-cross-platform.sh windows
|
|
|
|
# From PowerShell
|
|
.\scripts\test-cross-platform.sh windows
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 🖥️ Cross-Platform GUI Detection
|
|
|
|
### New GUI Environment System
|
|
|
|
VideoTools now includes a comprehensive GUI detection system in `internal/utils/gui_detection.go`:
|
|
|
|
#### Platform Detection
|
|
```go
|
|
guiEnv := guitutils.DetectGUIEnvironment()
|
|
fmt.Printf("Display: %s, Desktop: %s, Scale: %.1fx, GPU: %s %s",
|
|
guiEnv.DisplayServer, guiEnv.DesktopEnvironment,
|
|
guiEnv.ScaleFactor, guiEnv.GPUInfo.Vendor, guiEnv.GPUInfo.Model)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Supported Environments
|
|
|
|
| Platform | Display Server | Desktop | GPU Detection | Scaling |
|
|
|----------|----------------|----------|----------------|----------|
|
|
| Arch Linux | X11, Wayland | GNOME, KDE, XFCE, i3, Sway | ✅ | ✅ |
|
|
| Windows 11 | Windows Native | Windows 11 | ✅ | ✅ |
|
|
| macOS | Darwin | macOS | ✅ | ✅ |
|
|
|
|
### Adaptive Window Sizing
|
|
|
|
Windows automatically adapt to the detected environment:
|
|
|
|
#### Size Calculation Logic
|
|
```go
|
|
// Get optimal window size for current environment
|
|
optimalSize := guiEnv.GetOptimalWindowSize(800, 600)
|
|
|
|
// Module-specific sizing
|
|
playerSize := guiEnv.GetModuleSpecificSize("player") // 1024x768 base
|
|
authorSize := guiEnv.GetModuleSpecificSize("author") // 900x700 base
|
|
queueSize := guiEnv.GetModuleSpecificSize("queue") // 700x500 base
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Platform-Specific Adjustments
|
|
- **Windows 11**: Modern UI scaling, max 1600x1200
|
|
- **Wayland**: Good scaling support, max 1400x1000
|
|
- **X11 High DPI**: Conservative scaling, max 1200x900
|
|
- **GPU Acceleration**: Disabled on very high DPI displays (>2.0x)
|
|
|
|
## 🧪 Testing Framework
|
|
|
|
### Comprehensive Test Script
|
|
|
|
The `scripts/test-cross-platform.sh` script provides:
|
|
|
|
#### Test Categories
|
|
1. **Arch Linux Support**: Display server, GPU, dependencies
|
|
2. **Windows 11 Support**: Build detection, GPU, scaling
|
|
3. **GUI Detection**: Code compilation, build verification
