A browser grabbing the C920 kills our reader startup: the camera stays in
MJPG 1920x1080@30 (another app's format) and our OBS-refusal to re-negotiate
under SharedReadOnly contention (`SetMediaStreamPropertiesAsync` throws
'file in use / CaptureMode is SharedReadOnly') leaves it there.
CreateFrameReaderAsync(.., Bgra8) + StartAsync then refuses with
OutputFormatNotSupported — the MJPG-active source only exposes NV12 at the
reader level (clue: startup.log 19:01/19:05 sessions, same hardware that
started YUY2 640x480 fine at 08:52). Fresh launches showed no webcam and
'Add Webcam' failed.
Reader creation is now a per-candidate ladder (ReaderSubtypeCandidates):
Bgra8 for uncompressed cameras (unchanged fast path); NV12 then the
source-default for MJPG cameras — converted in OnFrameArrived like any
non-BGRA frame. Each candidate is allocated AND started under its OWN
catch: WinRT answers an unsupported subtype with a throw (E_INVALIDARG),
not a status, so a single rejected format must degrade to the next
candidate instead of aborting acquisition (creator rule — see MyMistakes
WINRT resource-allocation recipe). Rejections are logged and collected
into the final error.
Good Dog: 4 unit tests lock the candidate ordering (MJPG never Bgra8,
case-insensitive, uncompressed keeps Bgra8 first, unknown/null -> Bgra8).
301/301 green, 0 warnings. [no push]
- AudioSyncDelay.Configure reallocated/zeroed its buffer every ~10ms tick
(AudioMixer re-reads the UI setting each mix), so any non-zero sync offset
erased the just-written audio -> total silence. Now early-returns when the
delay samples are unchanged. Regression test proven both ways.
- SceneCompositor.BlitContentRaw defaulted cbW/cbH=0 when CropBounds is null
(regression from ed9d7c1) -> webcam blit to an empty rect = gray block.
Default to src.Width/Height. Regression test proven both ways.
- Truncated recordings: rawvideo mux stamps frames at declared 60fps by
arrival; a scene whose first layer is dynamic (hidden elements still count)
kills the bake cache -> full render ~35ms -> ~27fps submitted -> halved
file length. Static scenes bake once (246ms cold, then <1ms) -> 60fps,
full-length (probe + 13:53 take, 301/300 per 5s, 12.46s file from 12.3s
wall). FramePump.ProbeRender names the hot render path on slow frames.
Slice 10 from today-slices (d1126dd): UVC cameras default MediaFrameReader to their
FIRST media type (YUY2 at crippled fps — C920 720p = 5fps). A 60fps container
then shows a 5-20fps face cam as "every few frames cut out". Fix:
VideoDeviceController.SetMediaStreamPropertiesAsync negotiated to best MJPEG
>=640x360 @>=30fps (<=1280 wide) BEFORE creating the frame reader, with
device-default fallback. Plus a startup.log truth line of the actual agreed media
type so the next diagnosis starts from facts (no more re-deriving the fps).
Build 0 warnings, 289 tests.
Roll-forward of today-slices 6fd1d9c onto the slice-8 base, two-loop hunk dropped.
Release counter (per-build GUID read as noise; +1 per commit from git rev-list,
baseline 241 -> #13, generated by GenerateBuildStamp; GUID demotes to startup.log).
Tests pinned to Label/#N >= 13; wordmark display test asserts the Label.
Flash fix (take 14 finding): consumer holds must never outlive depth x source
period — 4 slots at high refresh lap ~27ms vs a <=50ms compositor read, so a
recycled slot flashed its new frame over the lagged old one. All shared rings 4->8
(OBS/overlay precedent for ring discipline).
Camera producer now rotates an 8-deep ring + Epoch instead of a fresh ~3.7MB
array per device frame (110-220MB/s LOH churn); WebView2 capture reuses a canvas
scratch + 8-deep output ring + a reused WriteableBitmap instead of two fresh
arrays + a fresh bitmap per 10Hz tick. Paste cache stays identity-keyed (Epoch).
