Licensing posture changes to closed-source commercial software (creator ruling 2026-10-30): free
tier caps output at 720p30, a paid licence unlocks 1080p ($10/month or $400 lifetime).
- LICENSE is now an End User License Agreement: grant, what you may do with your own content,
no redistribution/reverse engineering, third-party components prevail, updates at publisher
discretion, warranty and liability limits, termination, governing law.
- ADDITIONAL-TERMS.md deleted — those were GPL §7 terms and have no meaning under the EULA.
- THIRD-PARTY-NOTICES.txt keeps every third-party obligation and drops the GPL header and §6
source offer; it states plainly that LlamaCasty ships no source.
- PRIVACY.md is new: exactly what is written locally (layout DB, DPAPI token, capped log,
recordings you choose), what leaves the machine (Google's APIs only, with your account), and the
standing promises (chat rendered never stored, no telemetry, no ad SDKs).
- README, docs/ai/product.md, docs/ai/decisions.md and TASKS.md record the decision and the
obligations that still bind (ffmpeg LGPL as a separate process, OFL fonts, CC0 icons, model
provenance, notices in the About screen).
Deliberately NOT decided here: key issuance/verification and the resolution gate itself. Earlier
GPL builds remain GPL for the versions that shipped under it.
The pricing ruling landed twice (2026-09-21 one-time, then 2026-09-27 Store IAP
$10/mo + $400 lifetime) and the map never caught up. Six tracked files still told
a future session that billing was Polar and the price was $29/$49. A stale memory
map is worse than a stale comment: it is the file every session trusts, and this
one was actively steering work toward a deleted provider.
MONETIZATION.md (gitignored, so not in this commit) was rebuilt first:
- "Revenue projections" now carries a modelled Year 1 forecast —
pessimistic $4.0K / base $15.4K / optimistic $53.3K net, ~$22K weighted.
Funnel is installs -> 35-45% activate -> 1.5-3% of active users pay.
- Three findings recorded: Year 1 is ~97% lifetime transactions (subs net $392
of $15.4K, so MRR is not a Year-1 planning input); conversion dominates price
(~1pp of conversion = ~$7K net, and ADA 6(h) locks $10 anyway); subscriber
churn moves Year 1 by under $200 and is a Year-2 problem.
- Break-even restated for $400: $25K net = 74 lifetime buyers, not 862.
The price cut the volume requirement ~10x and raised the skill requirement
to match.
- Market sizing willingness-to-pay row rewritten. The 100K-400K TAM was
price-bound to $29-49 and is wrong at $400; revised ~20K-60K, flagged as an
estimate rather than a sourced number.
- Flagged a real contradiction: $500K ARR needs ~4,900 concurrent subscribers,
so the Exit section's ARR multiples do not describe what Years 1-3 produce.
The defensible asset there is lifetime cash flow, not ARR.
Tracked files corrected to match:
- ai.md: paid-delta, pricing and billing bullets rewritten; Polar product id,
org id, LCYT- key prefix and LLAMAFOUNDER/LLAMA50 marked as deleted;
15% share + net-after-tax recorded with the ADA 6(b)(i) citation.
- TASKS.md: catalog row retitled as a teardown; the "still to verify — the
price is not decided" note closed (it contradicted the ruling 20 lines
below it); the OverlayHost "Polar unlocks alerts" open question marked
resolved; Polar file-hosting deliverable removed from the release build.
- task-10: reframed as a teardown. Steps 4-5 marked as surviving, 1-2-3-6-7 as
deleting, 8 as a compliance action (Velopack downloads AND executes, which
Store policy 10.2.2 does not permit).
- task-36 item 5 (license-expiry reminders) struck — no key, no expiry, no
lapse under Store IAP, so there is nothing to remind anyone about.
- Distribution.md 4.2 / 4.4 / 4.5 marked obsolete; 4.5's "already implemented"
corrected, since PolarLicenseService is being deleted rather than shipped.
- README: "one-time license" -> "paid tier".
Historical Polar sections are retained deliberately — the reasoning is reusable
(merchant-of-record, fee comparison), only the conclusions are dead. Each is now
labelled so it cannot be mistaken for the plan.
No code touched.
Click-to-pin an open window as the full-bleed Live backdrop, via the existing
window:<hwnd> capture path (same render layer as game/desktop). Session-scoped:
window:/picker: keys heal to auto on reload (HWND-recycle hazard); pin wins
while the window enumerates, then auto-fallbacks (game → desktop → static); a
dead window's capture session heals to auto, no dead ends.
Fix: ScreenCaptureSourceFactory.Resolve hex-parsed "window:0x<Hwnd>" WITHOUT
stripping the 0x prefix — NumberStyles.HexNumber rejects it, so every pin
resolved null ("No capture target for this key") and the heal silently rolled
back. Same flaw in IsAliveWindowPin (pin-wins guard was dead). Both fixed.
Commit also carries an out-of-scope prerequisite: PillRadioTests.cs:105 had a
committed stray token ("...PrimaryStartButtonLabel soil;", CS1003) blocking the
whole test-project compile — token removed.
Plus the previous session's uncommitted pricing docs (one-time $29/$49) that
share TASKS.md/ai.md/HANDOFF.md.
Encoder dual-output: StreamEnabled/RecordEnabled/RecordPath options; per-output
ffmpeg block (stream ->flv, record ->mp4); throw unless at least one output.
RecordingFile: auto-name ty-<yyyymmdd>-<start hhmm>-0000.mp4, rename-on-stop to
ty-...-<len hhmmss>.mp4 with numeric-suffix on collision. LayoutStore persists
record folder. MainViewModel: REC/ON-AIR pills, status light, single Start<->End
button (replaces Start/Stop variants), StopStream no longer signs out, explicit
session timer. About overlay widened. Sign In label + spacing before Start.
Tests: 244 passed / 246 (2 pre-existing: AudioPipeline gains-mute, RoundClip).
Build 0 warnings. Scope check clean.
Memory-map correction (derived-solution rule, 2026-08-29): image-shrink recipe was
never recorded when first done, so it was re-derived. Added Derived-solution/recipes
rule to AGENTS.md; MyMistakes.md now a permanent recipes registry (records the
verified WPF-imaging shrink recipe); schema.md rows MyMistakes as registry; ai.md
points to the rule. README hero image replaced: 3.2MB screenshot -> 1400x794 ->
188KB docs/ytLlive-preview.jpg (JPEG q82).
1. About box bg → #0A0C1A (matches icon bg)
2. Elements panel collapses when no element selected / scene changes
3. OpacityChip moved from preview overlay into Elements panel
4. Color picker fix: cast to SceneElement not Source (WebcamSceneConfig was silently blocked)
5. Red left accent bar on selected items in Scene/Source lists
6. ✓ character replaced with Path checkmark icon in Elements panel
7. Removed ToolTip='Applied' from green check buttons
8. Created bugs.md with first entry (iTunes audio on mic meter)
9. Full logo in README + About box uses ytLlive-logo.png
