The marquee now has the dial it needs. `ScoreboardPresenter.PixelsPerSecond` is the single owner of
the range (20-400, default 120), the layer's properties expose it with a live px/s readout, and the
value is persisted as Scoreboard.ScrollSpeed because it is a READABILITY choice — re-dialling it
every launch would be a tax on the creator who needs the strip to be readable.
Advance() still takes an optional override so tests can drive exact distances.
Guard: the presenter test proves speed is real (same elapsed time, twice the speed, different
window) — not a value that is stored and ignored — and the panel test pins the control, its range
and the persistence key.
Creator: "even if it's not visible, we want to avoid polling."
ScoreboardEnabled is the layer's master switch in the properties panel. Off means two things:
- the strip frame is null in every scene (per-scene eye toggles stay independent), and
- the cadence policy returns None at every phase — a scoreboard nobody can see must not spend quota.
The switch is persisted (Scoreboard.Enabled), because one that resets would quietly resume polling.
The polling gate is ScoreboardPollsEnabled: master switch AND at least one scene with a visible
scoreboard — so hiding it in all five scenes also stops the polls.
Guards: ScoreboardCadenceTests adds the switch off across live/test/recording; ScoreboardProperties
pins the checkbox and the VM surface.
Unit 9, the one that matters most for this creator.
MASTER STRIP (top, nearest the preview):
- one ladder fed by the MEASURED mix — `AudioMixer` now measures the buffer the encoder receives
(`MasterLevel`, `MasterImbalanceDb`), so the master cannot show a source instead of the output
- `-12.4 dB` readout, and ONE L/R flag that appears above a 6 dB gap instead of a second ladder
- bitrate / FPS / dropped / duration from the existing health poll
MONO OUTPUT:
- `AudioFold.ToMono` averages each stereo pair into both channels, applied after the limiter and
the sync delay, so the stream AND the recording get what was folded
- `MonoOutput` is persisted (`Audio.MonoOutput`) and restored at startup: an accessibility switch
that resets each session is an accessibility failure
- one click in the strip, remembered forever
Guard: AudioFoldTests (hard-left reaches the right at half amplitude, hard-right — the inaudible
case — reaches the left, centred material keeps its level, mono buffers untouched) and
MasterStripTests (the strip binds the measured mix + the switch, the store round-trips it, and the
fold is the tested helper rather than new arithmetic). 33 audio tests green.
- Source.IsBrandLogo persisted (additive migration); layer healed on load, removal blocked
- Image stored as an asset; settings keep the asset id and file name
- App Settings: Brand Logo file field with Browse
- Default placement top-left; per-scene eye uses the existing element visibility
Test: BrandLogoTests; layout/background tests pass (34). Not pushed.
Right-click in the live preview now procs a box that is actually visible and
populated with the zoomed region, and each Zoom View Shape sculpts the box per
spec. OBS-style derivative: magnifier box shows the composited region and dims
the surroundings (same pattern as OBS "zoom" / preview region highlights).
Root causes of the invisible box (two WPF traps, recorded in MyMistakes.md):
- Empty <VisualBrush Stretch="None"/> used as an OpacityMask paints nothing,
so the mask alpha is 0 and the WHOLE box (border included) went transparent.
- ZoomBox lived inside CanvasGrid while its VisualBrush sampled CanvasGrid — a
circular reference WPF renders as nothing. Hoisted ZoomBox to a sibling of
CanvasGrid inside a new PreviewCanvas wrapper (same 1920x1080 space).
Shape semantics (MainViewModel.ActivateZoom):
- Circle: square, click point = center.
- VerticalRectangle (phone): tall 9:16, click point = top-left corner.
- HorizontalRectangle (tablet): wide 16:9, click point = top-left corner.
- Boxes stay fully inside 1920x1080 via Math.Clamp.
UI: ZoomRectOutline/ZoomCircleOutline shapes replace the square Border;
circle clips the box to an EllipseGeometry; brush Visual released when inactive.
Zoom View Shape dropdown now uses the standard YtComboBox style.
Test (Good Dog rule, one integration test): ZoomBoxInteractionTests verifies
aspect/anchoring/clamp per shape and the matching outline+clip in the real
MainWindow. Full suite 404 passed, 0 warnings.
Memory: HANDOFF.md zoom state updated; WPF VisualBrush traps appended to
MyMistakes.md.
TASK 43's alert box grows a real video celebration. Per-alert IAlertClipDecoder
(ffmpeg bgra + f32le pipes, real-time paced, disposed at drain) plays the shipped
Assets/alert-default.mp4 (stamped into the Asset table at startup) unless the
creator picks their own file — path reference only, never stored in the DB; the
six AlertRenderer animations stay the fallback. ~0.3s fade rides the alpha
envelope on straight-source copies (EOF freeze-frames then fades out); audio
forwards to a new AudioMixer alert ring (8s, 48k stereo) drained at unity — no
duck, creator ruling — scaled by volume × fade. An auto-composed marquee ticker
('Funder — Super Chat · $10.00', 140px/s) scrolls top-of-frame via a
FramePump._alertTicker seam through Render/CompositeLayers, mixed into the cache
signature (dynamic overlay, never baked). New Stream Alerts section in LeftPanel.
Derivative-work references (how OBS/Streamlabs alert boxes do per-alert video):
- https://support.streamlabs.com/hc/en-us/articles/217741147-Setting-Up-Your-Streamlabs-Alerts (custom image/video per alert type + variations)
- https://obsproject.com/kb/stream-tutorial-2-alerts (alert overlay as an on-screen zone)
- https://streamlabs.com/content-hub/widgets/alert-box (per-event alert playback)
Good Dog: AlertLayerVideoTests drives a fake IAlertClipDecoder through the whole
lifecycle in one pass (custom path wins, decoder spawns/disposes, fade envelope
0→127→255, audio volume×fade, ticker scrolls, EOF fade-drain to idle). It caught
the clip branch of Advance not clearing _current before AdvanceToNext — the layer
stayed IsPlaying after drain (MyMistakes post-mortem).
Full vstest 319/319; clean build 0 warnings; scope check green.
Positive offsets still delay the whole mix via the delay line (lip-sync fix);
negative offsets now ARM once at StartLive and drop |N| ms off the pipe's write
head so audio events land earlier when audio runs BEHIND video. Slider relabeled
AUDIO SYNC, Min −500, locked while live/recording (IsEditMode). LayoutStore and
VM clamp to −500..500.
OBS reference for eat-the-head negative sync: https://obsproject.com/kb/obs-studio/buffering-time (negative sync values pull audio earlier by discarding buffered player audio).
Test: StartLive_NegativeOffset_AdvancesAudio_ByDroppingTheStreamHead (6x0.9 head
must be eaten before 0.2 bed reaches the wire).
LayoutStore.cs 1402 -> 47-line shell + 5 partials, grouped by functionality
(line count is a consequence, not the goal):
- LayoutStore.Migrations.cs: all DB schema migration (EnsureSchema, GetUserVersion,
MigrateSourceTable/WebcamConfigTable/ToV3/SceneTable/SceneSocialBarColumn/
SocialsTable/SocialEntryTable)
- LayoutStore.Load.cs: Load() scene/source read-back
- LayoutStore.Save.cs: Save() full scene tree write
- LayoutStore.Settings.cs: key/value settings + mic/record-folder/reusable-stream
+ license/transition/broadcast/hotkey/window-state GetSetting/UpsertSetting
- LayoutStore.Assets.cs: GetAssetBytes/UpsertAsset blob IO
- LayoutStore.cs: shell — Instance, fields, ctor, Dispose
Converted to public partial class LayoutStore : IDisposable. Pruned per-file
dead usings. Phase 3 DOWN: no production .cs exceeds 500 lines.
Zero behavior change; build 0 warnings; 246 pass, only the 2 known failures.
Docs: ViewModels/index.md Phase 3 tracker updated in same commit.
