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.

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.
