Updated the build-windows.yml workflow to use pyglet instead of playsound3 in the list of packaged Python dependencies. This change ensures the correct audio library is included during Windows builds.
Downgraded PYTHON_VERSION in build-windows.yml from 3.13.6 to 3.13.5. Removed SUBPROCESS_CREATIONFLAGS import and usage from ytsage_dialogs_custom.py as it was no longer needed.
Updated the build-windows.yml workflow to use Python 3.13.6, improved build steps for both standard and FFmpeg bundle versions, added dependency caching, enhanced artifact packaging, and modernized the release draft with clearer instructions and changelog links.
Simplifies and modernizes the GitHub Actions workflow for building Windows releases. Updates Python version, streamlines steps for dependency installation, build, FFmpeg bundling, artifact packaging, and release creation. Uses more concise PowerShell scripts and updates action versions for improved maintainability.
Removes the screenshots folder from both Standard and FFmpeg build outputs in the Windows workflow. Also updates artifact ZIP naming to include '-portable' for clarity in release notes and file names.
Bumps PYTHON_VERSION to 3.13.6 in the Windows build workflow. Replaces cx_Freeze CLI FFmpeg include logic with a post-build step that copies FFmpeg binaries directly into the dist folder for improved reliability.
Replaces individual asset and source file mappings with broader 'src' and 'assets' directory includes in the cx_Freeze build steps. Also updates FFmpeg file inclusion to use only the source path, removing explicit destination mapping.
Updated CI/CD documentation and workflow to generate only ZIP portable versions for Windows, removing MSI installer support. Deleted setup.py and setup-ffmpeg.py scripts for MSI builds, and refactored workflow to use cx_Freeze CLI for ZIP packaging. Documentation and artifact instructions now reflect ZIP-only distribution.
Deleted the step that removes MSI files from the dist directory in the Windows build workflow. This may be to preserve MSI artifacts for later use or debugging.
Removed problematic summary_data and install_icon from MSI build options in setup.py and setup-ffmpeg.py to address cx_Freeze build issues. Updated target_name and version fields to 4.7.4. Enhanced build-windows.yml with improved artifact cleanup and error handling for MSI creation.
The workflow no longer creates or releases ZIP distributions for both standard and FFmpeg bundle versions. Only MSI installers are built and published, simplifying the release process and documentation.
Adds logging to list MSI files after build steps for better visibility. Updates artifact selection logic to handle both 'ffmpeg' and 'FFmpeg' naming variations, and adds debugging output when standard MSI is not found.
Replaces PowerShell try/catch with exit code checks for MSI build steps in Windows workflow for clearer error reporting. Removes the install_icon option from FFmpeg MSI setup to address potential build failures.
Adds error handling to MSI installer creation steps in the Windows build workflow to prevent failures from stopping subsequent ZIP creation. Updates ZIP creation logic to use the dist output directory. Removes the install_icon option from setup.py to address potential MSI build issues.
Updated FFmpeg download source to GyanD/codexffmpeg and improved artifact preparation with additional logging and error handling. The release step now uploads all files in the artifacts directory instead of specifying each file individually.
Changed status messages for FFmpeg, ffprobe, and ffplay binary checks to use '[OK]' and '[ERROR]' prefixes for clearer log output in the Windows build workflow.
Replaces universal build script calls with explicit build, MSI, and ZIP steps for both standard and FFmpeg versions. Cleans previous build artifacts before building, and updates artifact preparation to source files from the 'dist' directory instead of 'releases'. Improves reliability and transparency of build and release artifact management.
Replaces PowerShell build script with Python in CI workflow and deletes the old build/README.md and windows-build-universal.ps1. This streamlines the build process and consolidates build logic into Python for better maintainability.
Replaces manual build script version update with a message indicating the build script now auto-detects the version. Simplifies the workflow and reduces maintenance.
Refines the PowerShell regex patterns for updating version strings in setup.py, setup-ffmpeg.py, and windows-build-universal.ps1 to ensure consistent use of double quotes around version values.
Simplifies and improves the Windows release workflow by cleaning up version extraction, artifact handling, and release note generation. Artifact naming is now version-specific, redundant steps are removed, and the release draft creation is streamlined with direct body content. Also updates dependency caching and installation commands for better reliability.
Introduces a GitHub Actions workflow for building and releasing YTSage Windows installers and portable ZIPs on version tag pushes. Includes a detailed CI/CD README explaining triggers, build steps, artifact handling, release notes, and troubleshooting.
