slice 9 made the DURATION right but content still hiccuped; aggregates (301/300, uniform file PTS) could not see it. Measured root cause: FfmpegEncoder.SubmitFrameAsync BLOCKED on WriteAsync(8.3MB)+FlushAsync when ffmpeg lagged the pipe, and the burst while-loop re-wrote that same stale composite per crossed slot — frozen runs. OBS shape (derivative, wrapped pre-1.0): the encoder queue in libobs/obs-encoder.c — encoder thread never couples back into the video thread; overflow = dropped data, never a frozen producer. https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/blob/master/libobs/obs-encoder.c - FfmpegEncoder: SubmitFrameAsync is now an enqueue (ArrayPool copy) into a bounded Channel (cap 120) drained by its own task; drop-newest + count when full; StopAsync flushes the queue then EOF (TryComplete). IFfmpegEncoder.DroppedFrames. - FramePump: ONE fresh composite per iteration (burst loop deleted); worst-submit stat, stall logger (>2x interval names the stage), dropped/stalls in stats. - Burned-in 6-digit dot-matrix frame counter (white box, bottom-right) on every composite — the clock-independent judge replacing the WSL ticker: +1/frame, jumps = counted drops. - ONE new test Backpressure_QueueOverflow_DropsFrames_AndNeverBlocks (slow-sink fake: submit never blocks, drops counted, stop flushes exactly submitted-minus-dropped). - Full suite 290 tests, 289 pass — sole failure the pre-existing compositor pixel test. - Docs same-commit: ai.md slice 10 (+ encoder/stop-note corrections), MyMistakes point 8, HANDOFF. Audio untouched (queued follow-up); web overlay still frozen pending timing closure.
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.
Run
dotnet build # Windows only — WPF
dotnet run
Version Roadmap
v1 is the finished product (creator ruling, 2026-09-01 — there are no v1.x releases).
Everything still queueing lands in v1; anything not on the feature list is on the closed
"Out of product — permanently" list in TASKS.md — read that page before asking for a feature.
What v1 ships: the five-scene director's control surface, webcam + screen capture, media + web + text sources, chat on-stream, the social bar, mic/desktop audio with auto-duck and TRAX, local recording, variable quality tiers with auto step-down, one-click go-live + scheduling, stream resilience (auto-reconnect inside YouTube's grace, one-click back on air), built-in monetization awareness (reward capture, session reports, YPP journey tracker), Alerts — all free and ungated; the subscription only removes the branding flash.
