  • Optimized font size (14px base) for 1800x900 resolution

✅ Window Configuration

  • Default size: 1800x900
  • Minimum size: 1800x900

Right Column (420px):

  • Top 50%: Job queue with status tracking
  • Bottom 50%: Manual sync points (horizontal pills)

✅ New Components Created

JobQueue Component:

  • Status badges (Processing, Pending, Completed, Failed)

  • Empty state with instructions

✅ Queue System

  • Add multiple jobs to queue
  • Automatic sequential processing
  • Job status tracking:
    • Pending: Yellow badge, waiting
    • Processing: Pink badge, spinner animation
    • Completed: Green badge, success icon
    • Failed: Red badge, error icon with retry option
  • Logs isolated per job
  • View any job's logs by clicking

✅ Header Updates

  • "Add to Queue" button (instead of "Run AVSync")
  • "Stop Processing" button when job is running
  • Pink primary button color

✅ File Changes

New Files:

  • src/components/JobQueue.tsx + .css
  • src/components/SyncPointPills.tsx + .css
  • src/App.old.tsx (backup of original)
  • src/App.old.css (backup of original)

Modified Files:

  • src/App.tsx - Complete rewrite with queue system
  • src/App.css - 3-column grid layout
  • src/index.css - New theme colors
  • src/components/Header.tsx - "Add to Queue" button
  • src/components/Header.css - Pink accent colors
  • electron/main.ts - 1800x900 window size

How to Use:

Starting the App:

npm run dev

Adding Jobs to Queue:

  1. Select reference and foreign videos
  2. Choose output path
  3. (Optional) Navigate videos and add sync points
  4. (Optional) Adjust parameters
  5. Click "Add to Queue" - job is queued
  6. Repeat for multiple videos
  7. Jobs process automatically in order

Managing Queue:

  • View Logs: Click the log icon on any job
  • Retry Failed: Click retry icon on failed jobs
  • Remove: Click trash icon on pending/completed/failed jobs
  • Stop Current: Click "Stop Processing" in header

Sync Points:

  • Navigate both videos to matching frames
  • Click "Add Sync Point" in video preview
  • Appears as pill chip in right column
  • Click edit icon to modify timestamps
  • Click X to remove
  • Hover to see inline edit controls

Features:

Job Queue Benefits:

✓ Process multiple video pairs without supervision ✓ Each job has independent settings ✓ Failed jobs can be retried ✓ Logs saved per job ✓ Continue adding while processing

UI Improvements:

✓ Better space utilization (3 columns) ✓ Videos always visible while adjusting params ✓ Sync points more compact and manageable ✓ Status at a glance with color coding ✓ Professional dark theme

Performance:

✓ Optimized layout for 1800x900 ✓ No more zoom issues ✓ Readable fonts ✓ Smooth animations

Testing Checklist:

Run through these scenarios:

  • App opens at 1800x900
  • All 3 columns visible
  • File selection works
  • Video preview loads frames
  • Frame navigation buttons work
  • Add sync point creates pill
  • Edit sync point inline
  • Remove sync point
  • Adjust parameters
  • Add first job to queue
  • Job shows as "Pending" (yellow)
  • Job auto-starts and shows "Processing" (pink)
  • Logs appear in middle-bottom
  • Add second job while first processes
  • Second job waits as "Pending"
  • First job completes (green) or fails (red)
  • Second job auto-starts
  • Retry a failed job
  • Remove a job from queue
  • Stop processing job
  • View logs of completed job

Known Behaviors:

  1. Job Processing: Jobs run sequentially, one at a time
  2. Log Display: Shows current/selected job's logs only
  3. Queue Persistence: Queue clears on app restart (not saved)
  4. Form State: Input fields don't clear after adding to queue (allows batch similar jobs)

Color Reference:

--bg-primary: #0f1419        /* Main background */
--bg-secondary: #1a1f2e      /* Panels */
--bg-tertiary: #242b3d       /* Headers, inputs */
--accent-primary: #ff4081    /* Primary actions, processing */
--accent-green: #10b981      /* Success, completed */
--accent-red: #ef4444        /* Error, failed */
--accent-yellow: #fbbf24     /* Warning, pending */
--accent-blue: #4a9eff       /* Info */

Original vs. New:

Before:

  • 2-column layout
  • Single job at a time
  • Run → Wait → Configure next → Run
  • Sync points in table view
  • Light zoom needed (font too small)

After:

  • 3-column layout
  • Queue multiple jobs
  • Add all jobs → Process batch automatically
  • Sync points as pills (compact)
  • Perfect at 1800x900, no zoom needed

Backup Files:

If you need to revert:

# Restore original
mv src/App.old.tsx src/App.tsx
mv src/App.old.css src/App.css
npm run build

Next Enhancement Ideas:

Future improvements you could add:

  • Save queue to localStorage (persist on restart)
  • Drag-and-drop file selection
  • Reorder jobs in queue (drag-and-drop)
  • Export/import queue configurations
  • Preset templates for common settings
  • Bulk add jobs from folder
  • Progress percentage calculation
  • Estimated time remaining
  • Desktop notifications on completion
  • Job history/statistics

Redesign Status: ✅ Complete and ready to use!

Run npm run dev to see the new UI in action!
