A video file was picture-only: the decode pipe passed `-an`, so a starting-soon
or BRB clip with music played silent everywhere. Adds sound to every clip and
collapses the two decoders into one.
- `Services/VideoClipPipe.cs`: the shared pipe behind `MediaVideoSource` (TASK 21)
and `AlertClipDecoder` (TASK 47) — video (`rawvideo bgra`, scaled) + audio
(`f32le -ac 2 -ar 48000`, 50 ms chunks, byte-carry across reads), both paced to
real time, loop restarts both so picture and sound stay together. Alert
behaviour is unchanged.
- `MediaVideoSourceManager` applies the layer's Level/Mute per session and raises
`AudioAvailable`; `MainViewModel` feeds it to the new
`AudioMixer.EnqueueDesktopMediaAudio`, which joins the DESKTOP/GAME ring so the
desktop fader and the mic auto-ducker apply exactly as they do for game audio
and TRAX (creator ruling 2026-11-05: audio joins the group).
- Per-layer `MediaMuted` + existing `MediaVolume` surfaced as Mute/Level in the
properties panel; `MediaMuted` persisted (ALTER TABLE guard + SELECT/INSERT).
- Level/mute are per SESSION because one decoder is shared per file path — the
last layer touched wins; one decoder per layer would play the file twice.
Test: `MediaSourceAudioTests` — the pipe emits 50 ms chunks at 48k stereo, the
manager scales by level and drops when muted, and a media layer's sound moves the
desktop meter. Alert/decode suites unchanged and green.
Docs: task-21 closed on item 10, the "silent soundtrack" facts corrected in
frame-pipeline/output/overlays, HANDOFF rewritten. verify.sh green (529 passed;
the two documented pre-existing failures only).
- IMediaFrameSource gains bool Looping.
- MediaVideoSource ctor takes Func<IDecodeProcess> processFactory instead of a
single IDecodeProcess: a System.Diagnostics.Process can't be re-Start()ed, so
each loop pass creates a fresh decoder. Decode wrapped in do-while(Looping):
restart on natural EOF instead of raising Completed.
- Production wiring (MainViewModel media factory): passes the process factory
AND FfmpegFrameRateProbe -- closes the slice-2b gap where production had no
probe and therefore no pacing.
- Tests: loop test (single frame re-emits across passes, Completed only when
loop cleared); fakes updated for the new interface member. Media tests 12/12,
build 0 warnings.
Wiring Source.MediaIsLooping into the flag needs a manager-level per-path loop
provider -> lands with the UI-picker (acquisition) slice.
Derivative reference: looping media by restarting decode on EOF, standard in
playback/overlay tooling (OBS media source repeat).
