Ziggle Wump Media Compressor 0.2-beta.09.09.2024.changelog

Here’s a changelog based on the comparison between the old and new versions of the script:

### Ziggle Wump Media Compressor Changelog

**Version: 0.2-beta**

#### New Features:
1. **Audio Conversion Support**:
   - Added the ability to process common audio file formats (e.g., `mp3`, `wav`, `flac`, `aac`, `ogg`, `m4a`).
   - Audio files are now converted to `.opus` format with default FFmpeg settings using `libopus` codec.

2. **Improved Video Conversion**:
   - Enhanced video encoding options by adding a default FFmpeg command for video processing. Now, all video files are converted to `.mkv` format using the `libx265` video codec and `libopus` for audio.
   - The new FFmpeg command also applies video filters for downscaling and frame rate adjustments while preserving video quality.

3. **Custom FFmpeg Command-line Options**:
   - Users can override default video encoding options via the `-f` flag to customize FFmpeg settings. This allows more control over the conversion process, such as specifying codecs and audio formats.

4. **Automatic Log Handling**:
   - Improved logging functionality by creating a log file at the start of every run. The script checks if a log file exists and deletes any old log files to ensure a fresh log is generated.
   - Added error detection by checking the log file for a "Killed" message, indicating when a process fails or gets terminated.

5. **Directory Structure Preservation**:
   - The script maintains the original directory structure when saving converted audio and video files in the output folder (`/storage/shared/Movies/VideoConverted`).

6. **Battery Saving Warning**:
   - Added a warning message about phone battery saving features (e.g., Galaxy S24), advising users to keep Termux in focus and the screen on during encoding to avoid incomplete files.

#### Improvements:
1. **User Prompts**:
   - The script now prompts the user to continue or quit before starting the encoding process, allowing them to review the files detected and decide whether to proceed.

2. **Directory Setup**:
   - Automatically creates necessary directories (`VideoDrop`, `VideoProcessing`, and `VideoConverted`) if they don’t already exist, simplifying setup and execution.

3. **Custom Resolution Scaling**:
   - The script allows users to specify a custom resolution for video conversion using the `-r` flag. It ensures that the aspect ratio is preserved when downscaling video files.

4. **Log-friendly Outputs**:
   - Outputs important progress information and file paths to both the terminal and log file, making it easier to track the conversion process.

#### Bug Fixes:
1. **Handling Spaces in File Paths**:
   - Fixed an issue where the script previously failed to handle file paths with spaces, ensuring smooth processing of files in folders with such names.

#### Notes:
- If the FFmpeg process is killed or fails, the script logs an error message and exits gracefully.
- The user can pass custom FFmpeg options to fine-tune encoding settings as needed.
