Live Demo & Interface

Core Features & Engines

Conversion Pipelines & Workspace

A/V Transcoding Engine (FFmpeg)

Powered by an embedded FFmpeg core, MediaForge executes high-fidelity audio and video conversions (MP4, MKV, MP3, etc.) natively on your CPU, guaranteeing absolute privacy for sensitive recordings.

Document Parsing (Pandoc)

Utilizes a localized Pandoc environment to safely convert PDFs, Word documents, and text formats entirely offline, eliminating the need to upload proprietary corporate documents to web-based converters.

Standalone PDF Compilation

Includes an embedded wkhtmltopdf engine, allowing you to generate, format, and render true PDF documents from raw HTML or text files entirely offline.

Native Media Previewer

Verify your assets before and after conversion without launching external software. Features an integrated A/V player with direct track-seeking to instantly review video and audio renders.

Data & Metadata Control

Deep EXIF Manipulation (ExifTool)

Integrates the industry-standard ExifTool architecture to let you read, modify, or completely strip deep-level metadata from images and media files to protect your privacy before sharing.

File Property Engine

Adjust creation dates, file permissions, and compression metrics securely in a clean graphical interface before rendering your final output.

Batch Metadata Execution

Apply universal changes to your file properties instantly. Load multiple media files into the workspace and execute simultaneous metadata edits or wipes via a single backend command.

Architecture & Execution

Release Notes

Version 1.1.0
  • ✓ Core Architecture: Enforced true single-file compilation to successfully bundle the .NET runtime, CLI engines, and native C++ libraries. Replaced legacy file-flattening code with a robust .zip archive extraction pipeline.
  • ✓ Metadata Processing: Introduced batch editing capabilities to the metadata grid, executing all changes simultaneously via a single backend command.
  • ✓ Media Player & UI: Enabled direct track-clicking on sliders for immediate audio and video seeking. Resolved asynchronous timer synchronization bugs to prevent UI element snapping during manual seek operations.
  • ✓ Document Conversion: Embedded wkhtmltopdf.exe and its dependencies for standalone PDF generation. Wired the "Convert Document to PDF" action to the Pandoc engine, and added input format isolation to prevent PDF-to-PDF loop crashes.
  • ✓ Version Control: Configured local Git identities and implemented .gitignore overrides to permit committing massive binary .exe and .zip payloads directly to the self-hosted repository.
