===========================

Thank you for downloading Reel Reveal – the fast, free video metadata scanner built by Attila's Creative Works!

This app lets you:
✅ Instantly scan folders of MP4, MOV, MKV files
✅ View metadata including title, comment, duration, file size, and format
✅ Export metadata to a CSV file
✅ See missing or incomplete metadata at a glance
✅ No installation required – just unzip and run!

---------------------------
       HOW TO USE
---------------------------

1. Unzip the entire folder to your computer.
2. Open the unzipped folder.
3. Double-click **gui_metadata_scanner.exe** to launch the app.
4. Click **Select Video Folder** to scan a folder of videos.
5. Click **View CSV** to open your exported report.

---------------------------
     SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
---------------------------

• Windows 10 or Windows 11 (64-bit recommended)
• No Python installation required
• Internet connection optional (only for opening external web links)

---------------------------
        CONTENTS
---------------------------

After unzipping, you should see:

• gui_metadata_scanner.exe
• MediaInfo.dll
• assets/ (folder containing banner and logo images)

**Do not delete or move the assets folder or MediaInfo.dll** — they are required for the app to run properly.

---------------------------
     TROUBLESHOOTING
---------------------------

❓ Windows SmartScreen warning?
➡️ Click **More Info** > **Run Anyway**.  
  (This happens because the app is unsigned. It is safe.)

❓ App launches but no metadata appears?
➡️ Make sure `MediaInfo.dll` is in the same folder as `gui_metadata_scanner.exe`.

❓ Missing banner or broken visuals?
➡️ Make sure the `assets/` folder is still next to the `.exe`.
