This creates a self-contained executable that includes all dependencies. The script automatically detects your architecture and produces the appropriate AppImage:
- **x86_64**: `Passport-C-Media-Player-0.1-x86_64.AppImage`
- **ARM64/aarch64**: `Passport-C-Media-Player-0.1-aarch64.AppImage`
Users can run it directly:
```bash
./Passport-C-Media-Player-0.1-x86_64.AppImage
# or on ARM devices:
./Passport-C-Media-Player-0.1-aarch64.AppImage
```
For a fully portable setup, create a `media/` directory in the same folder as the AppImage and add your channel videos there. The AppImage will automatically detect and load channels from this directory.
