Adds the codec-agnostic decoder half of the media source. Spawns ffmpeg with -f rawvideo -pix_fmt bgra (reusing the already-shipped ffmpeg via IFfmpegLocator) and drains the raw BGRA stdout pipe into VideoFrames. - Services/RawVideoFrameReader.cs: pure rawvideo BGRA stream -> frames (partial reads kept across Feed; no ffmpeg needed to test) - Services/IDecodeProcess.cs + FfmpegDecodeProcess.cs: binary-stdout subprocess seam, mirror of the encoder's IEncoderProcess - Services/MediaVideoSource.cs: owns the decode, raises FrameReady/Completed - MediaVideoSourceTests: 3 pure reader + 1 integration (fake decode process through the real source loop, frames in order) Reference (external scan): ffmpeg rawvideo pipe decode is the canonical codec-agnostic frame feeds pattern (ffmpeg docs -f rawvideo; how OBS/media pipelines push frames to a compositor). Verified: 4/4 tests, build 0 warnings. Native-FPS pacing + resolver/compositor wiring are the next slice.
ytLlive
A creator-proof live-streaming and recording app for YouTube — native Windows (C# / WPF / .NET 8).

Design Principle
This software is so intuitive that even the most right-brained person can easily intuit and use it.
Every feature is measured against this. One-click go-live, sane YouTube defaults, visual scene building, and no dead ends — every action has a visible outcome.
Why ytLlive
OBS treats YouTube as an afterthought; SLOBS is Twitch-first with YouTube bolted on. ytLlive is designed and dedicated to YouTube livestreaming and recording, and to YouTube's specific quirks.
Account Assumption
ytLlive assumes you already have a YouTube creator account — connecting uses "Sign in with Google" to link that existing account. ytLlive does not create accounts. If you don't have a YouTube channel yet, set one up on YouTube first, then connect it here.
Audio Assumption
ytLlive uses your default microphone and desktop/game output — it never hunts for a device or contends for one. It assumes your audio is already configured and working (default input and output set, not hijacked by another app). Audio issues are a Windows/device matter outside ytLlive's scope: we don't debug, detect, or try to fix them. If it doesn't sound right, fix the system's audio settings first — it's on the OS, not on us.
