VideoTools Changelog

v0.1.1-dev33 (March 2026)

Disc Authoring

• Native DVD Engine Foundation - Established the internal/DVD package structure for native authoring. This is the first step toward removing Linux-only dependencies (DVDauthor, xorriso) and enabling DVD/Blu-ray creation on Windows.
• Phase 1: UDF Writer - Started implementation of a native UDF 1.02 / ISO 9660 Bridge writer for standards-compliant disc images.

Documentation

• Wiki synchronization - Migrated in-repo docs/ to the Forgejo wiki at git.leaktechnologies.dev. Established a navigation sidebar and centralized documentation portal.

v0.1.1-dev32 (March 2026)

Settings

• Dependency install buttons - Each dependency in the Dependencies tab now has an actionable Install button. FFmpeg on Windows uses the app-local bootstrap.
• Platform-filtered dependencies - The Dependencies tab only lists tools relevant to the current platform.
• WSL auto-install reverted - Installing Ubuntu via WSL would consume 5-10 GB; removed from the lightweight app. DVDauthor/xorriso restricted to Linux/macOS builds.
• Updates tab wired - Check for Updates hits the Forgejo tags API (/api/v1/repos/leak_technologies/VideoTools/tags?limit=1) and compares against the running version; fixed owner mismatch in API URL.
• Uninstall support - Uninstall buttons shown per dependency where a package manager uninstall command is available.
• Disc toggles hidden on Windows - Author, Rip, Blu-ray visibility checkboxes hidden in Settings on Windows since those tools are unavailable on that platform.
• cmd window popups suppressed - All subprocess calls on Windows now use HideWindowExec / HideWindowExecContext to prevent console window flashes.

Icons

• SVG icon library - ~150 Material Design SVG icons added to assets/icons/; ASCII placeholders replaced with real icon resources.
• Icons embedded into binary - Icons are baked into the binary at compile time via //go:embed; GetIcon reads from the embedded FS with no runtime disk access. Fixes blank icons on installed builds (issue #20).

Convert Module

• Player layout fixed - Video pane used NewVBox which collapsed the canvas.Image to 0 px; rewritten with NewBorder so the video fills the centre and the transport bar is pinned to the bottom.
• VSplit gap fixed - Extra NewVBox wrapper around the video panel left dark empty space in the top half of the VSplit; removed so the video panel fills its full allocated area.
• Player icons fixed - ASCII fallback labels replaced with widget.NewButtonWithIcon using embedded SVG icons.
• Active state fixed - s.active was never set to "convert", breaking drop handling and keyboard shortcuts inside the module.
• Source state fixed - s.source was not updated when loading a video via loadVideo; now set before rebuilding the view.
• Convert UI cleanup (issue #5) - Label alignments standardised, consistent separators added.

Compare Module

• Hide/show player toggle (issue #1) - Toggle button added to hide/show both video players, giving more vertical space for comparison.

Main Menu / Navigation

• Author and Rip hidden on Windows - Disc modules hidden from the main menu on Windows until cross-platform disc authoring is implemented.
• Mouse back button fixed - Side mouse buttons now navigate correctly; back button (button 4) returns to main menu.
• Keyboard shortcuts simplified - Ctrl+Enter is the universal confirm action on Linux/Windows.
• Drag-to-scroll fixed (issue #19) - container.Scroll was silently consuming desktop drag events via a mobile-only guard. Replaced with a custom scrollClip widget that does not implement fyne.Draggable, so drag events reach FastVScroll and 1:1 content tracking works.
• Pulsing drop indicator - Video drop zone pulses when a draggable file hovers over the convert player area.
• FastVScroll on all settings panels - Upscale module settings and Convert metadata panel now use FastVScroll for consistent drag-to-scroll experience.

Auto-Update

• In-app updates - Windows and Linux builds now support in-app auto-update. Check for Updates detects new releases; Install Update/Patches buttons download and apply updates automatically.

UI

• Main menu tile colour consistency - Unavailable/missing-dependency module tiles now show a consistently dimmed module colour on first load.

v0.1.1-dev31 (March 2026)

UI

• Module settings scrolling - Scroll containers added to all non-Convert module settings panels; primary action buttons (Rip Now, Create Output, Apply Filters, Generate Now, Merge Now) pinned to always-visible footer action bar.
• Window resize stability - Window size is now preserved across module switches; layout-driven auto-resize no longer occurs.
• Convert video pane - Removed rigid minimum size from loaded-video stage so VSplit 50/50 offset holds correctly at all window sizes.
• Click-and-drag scrolling - Scroll panels now support click-and-drag in addition to mouse wheel, mirroring mobile/touch-screen behaviour. Drag up to scroll down, drag down to scroll up.
• Convert module partial modularisation - Added ShowView, ConvertState, and ConvertCallbacks entry point in internal/app/modules/convert/view.go with shim and type-converter helpers in main.go. Full buildConvertView extraction deferred pending appState decoupling.
• Convert UI cleanup - Layout and control organization pass to prepare Convert for external developer testing (in progress).

• CI build fix - Restored missing encoding/json and path/filepath imports in subtitles_module.go to resolve Forgejo Linux/Windows packaging compile failures.
• FFprobe path fix - Convert drag/drop analysis now uses the configured FFprobe path (including app-local Windows installs) instead of requiring ffprobe on PATH.
• Thumbnail probe path fix - Thumbnail metadata probes now use the configured FFprobe path to match the rest of the app dependency resolution flow.
• Release note cleanup - Forgejo dev release comments now include concise highlights from the matching changelog section instead of the full raw version block.

• Agent handoff update - Expanded AGENTS.md with current release state, closeout requirements, refactor boundaries, and dev31 takeover priorities.
