Message: <blockquote data-quote="Lehmden" data-source="post: 1307604" data-attributes="member: 109222">Hi.It’s done—the complete video processing workflow, covering all areas, is now fully functional in the new Media-Buddy. Post-processing for other types of videos is also working now.[ATTACH=full]219679[/ATTACH]That was the AI’s first attempt, after I had previously written an entire book detailing exactly how it was supposed to look.[ATTACH=full]219678[/ATTACH]After several more attempts, things ended up looking like this. You can edit the "metadata" here, which now includes the option to assign a UniqueID. This allows you to define your own custom types (like "test" in this example) or even provide a "fake" TMDB or TVDB ID—useful if you’d prefer to categorize the video under "Movies" or "TV Shows." The posters and fan art displayed are generated automatically, though the design is fully configurable. You can also change them manually: either by downloading a suitable image from the web and swapping it in, or by triggering the generation of new posters/fan art while specifying exactly which screenshots should be used.And, just for "fun"—here’s another failed attempt.[ATTACH=full]219677[/ATTACH]The wonderfully distorted graphics are actually in portrait orientation, as this is a mobile phone video.[ATTACH=full]219675[/ATTACH]Here you can see the result. For portrait-oriented videos, there are 8x2 preview images from which you can select the ones to be used for the poster.[ATTACH=full]219676[/ATTACH]And this is how it’s laid out for a "standard" landscape-format video—specifically, a 4x4 grid.A new feature in V2 is the ability to manually select the images used for fan art. You can also choose to deviate from the global configuration settings, if you wish.[ATTACH=full]219674[/ATTACH]As you can see, the same stills used for the poster are employed here. You select which image should serve as the background. You also have the option to forgo a collage entirely; in this case, the chosen background image is used to fill the entire frame. Naturally, this only makes sense for videos in HD quality or higher, as the stills would otherwise likely appear too blurry. If, however, you do want a collage, you simply select 2 to 6 of the available images. You cannot choose just one image, nor can you select more than six. The number of design options is limited—otherwise, it would be necessary to develop an almost infinite number of algorithms.[ATTACH=full]219672[/ATTACH]If you select just one background, this is what it looks like. You’ll likely recognize what I’ve chosen here from the selection window shown above.With this, all the video editing options from the old Media-Buddy have been migrated to the new version. Furthermore, there are many new features and options that simply didn’t exist in the previous program—ranging from the secure preservation of Dolby Vision videos to a complete end-to-end workflow for editing music videos. There are countless small improvements, along with several more significant additions—all of which make sense and are now technically feasible.Since I had some extra time, I began going through the entire GUI, window by window, to fix minor bugs and address missing translations; I’m about halfway through that process. On top of that, there are two minor technical adjustments that came to light today but didn’t fit into the current workflow—though these shouldn’t take too long to resolve. Even though three of the four major modules are still pending, I’ve likely completed about half of the overall work. The remaining areas—music, photos, and utilities—are quite distinct from the video component, but they are also far less extensive.</blockquote>
