Growing root cause (4th attempt): Premiere doesn't import H.264-in-.ts
("unsupported compression type"); its growing-file support is MXF OP1a.
Prior MXF/DNxHR failed because DNxHR is VBR and never flushes the incremental
index — XDCAM HD422 (mpeg2video, CBR) DOES write index segments into body
partitions mid-record (proven live via SIGKILL: 5 index segments, readable,
no footer). Growing master is now MXF OP1a / XDCAM HD422 4:2:2 CBR + PCM s16le,
operator bitrate as CBR (default 50M). live-path returns .mxf to match.
GUI: bitrate input is now always editable in growing mode (was hidden for
ProRes-selected codecs); codec menu shown disabled-with-explanation under
growing (it had only looked "missing" due to a stale served bundle).
Requires Premiere prefs: Media > "Automatically refresh growing files" ON,
and disable the two XMP-write-on-import options.

Root cause: MXF OP1a writes its index/duration only in the footer partition
on finalize, so a growing MXF has no footer and VLC/Premiere/ffmpeg-strict
refuse it ("Unable to open file on disk"). Separately the proxy job pointed
at a .mov S3 key that never existed (promotion worker watched a local empty
disk, not the SMB share), so stop -> instant proxy failure.
Fix: growing master is now MPEG-TS (H.264 high422 all-intra + AAC), which is
readable from the first PAT/PMT while still growing (verified mid-write decode).
hiresKey derives from the actual produced extension. Capture skips finalize for
growing recorders (leaves asset live for promotion). Promotion worker CIFS-
mounts the same growing_smb share before scanning; worker image gets cifs-utils
and worker-p4 runs privileged (local /growing bind removed). /live-path uses .ts.

Growing-files mode became per-recorder (recorders.growing_enabled); the
global growing_enabled setting was removed. GET /assets/:id/live-path —
which the Premiere plugin calls to mount a still-growing master — still
required growing_enabled==='true', so Mount Live would 409 "Growing-files
mode is disabled" on any deploy where that stale key isn't set. Drop the
global gate: a status='live' asset already proves a growing recorder is
producing the file; only the editor-facing growing_smb_url is required.
Response contract is unchanged, so the plugin needs no update.

Review of the v2 auth landing found four places where the per-project RBAC
helpers weren't applied to destination/source projects, letting a scoped
editor write into projects they don't have access to:
- assets PATCH /🆔 bin_id moved with no check, so an editor in project A
could stuff their asset into a bin in project B. Now validates the bin's
project_id matches the asset's own project (assets don't change project).
- assets POST /:id/copy: body's projectId/binId never checked, so any
reachable asset could be cloned into an arbitrary project. Now asserts
edit on the destination project and validates binId belongs there.
- bins POST /:id/assets: requireBinEdit checks edit on the bin's project but
not on the source asset's project, so an asset from project B could be
pulled into A's bin tree (and surfaced in A's views). Now the asset must
belong to the bin's own project.
- jobs POST /conform: project_id from body never gated, so any logged-in
user could enqueue conform jobs against any project. Now asserts edit.
- upload POST /init, POST /simple: projectId/binId from body never gated,
same class of bug. Now asserts edit on projectId and validates binId.
- upload GET /: returned every in-progress upload globally, leaking
filenames across projects. Now scoped via accessibleProjectIds.
These are the same pattern as the holes 2615143 closed on recorders/
sequences/imports/comments — these routes existed before the RBAC commit
landed and were never marked TODO(authz), so the broad sweep missed them.

The HLS-VOD work made GET /assets/:id/stream return the HLS playlist URL as
`url` whenever hls_s3_key was set. The Premiere plugin's "Import Proxy"
downloads `url` to a file and imports it — so it was saving an .m3u8 playlist
as .mp4, and Premiere rejected it ("unsupported compression type"). This hit
every YouTube asset (all get HLS generated), regardless of codec.
/stream now returns the directly-downloadable MP4 proxy as `url` (type mp4)
and the HLS playlist as a separate `hls_url`. The web player prefers `hls_url`
(so in-browser HLS playback is unchanged), while the already-installed plugin
gets a real MP4 again — no plugin reinstall needed.

Stuck-live fix: capture sidecar now finalises the pre-created live asset by id (new POST /assets/:id/finalize) instead of POSTing a new asset (409 collision); node-agent gives the sidecar a 180s stop grace so the S3 upload + callback complete; node-agent logs sidecar start/stop for diagnostics.
Live SDI monitor: HLS preview is now a 2nd output of the hires ffmpeg (single DeckLink read, split to ProRes/S3 + H.264/HLS); node-agent serves /live over HTTP; mam-api proxies GET /recorders/:id/live/* to the recorder node; web-ui HlsPreview loads from the proxied URL.

RustFS returns empty bodies for ranged GETs whose start offset is past
~5.9 MB on single-file proxy MP4s. HEAD reports correct size, full GET
(`bytes=0-`) works, but `bytes=8179166-` comes back 206 + correct
Content-Range header with zero bytes. Confirmed via direct S3 probe
against broadcastmgmt.cloud/dragonmam (see scratch tests).
Workaround in mam-api `GET /api/v1/assets/:id/video` until the proxy
worker emits HLS (planned v1.2.1):
- HEAD the object first to learn total size (also gives ETag /
Last-Modified for conditional requests).
- No-Range / unparseable-Range / pre-EOF requests \u2192 plain pipe.
- Parsed `bytes=N-M` requests below RUSTFS_RANGE_SAFE_START
(default 5_500_000) \u2192 direct ranged GET, RustFS handles fine.
- Anything reaching into the broken zone \u2192 stream from offset 0,
drop bytes below start, stop at end. Memory stays flat; extra
bandwidth = (end+1 - requested-size) per seek.
- Genuinely out-of-range \u2192 416 with Cache-Control: no-store so the
browser doesn't poison its cache.
Also stashes (not yet wired up) the HLS pieces we'll need for the
follow-up: `segmentToHls` ffmpeg helper + `uploadDirectoryToS3`
worker s3 helper. Harmless additions; not referenced by any code path
yet.
Confirmed against the affected asset (a72aaa03-...): bytes=0-100k +
50% +100k native pass-through; 70% +100k and near-EOF previously hung
the browser, now stream correctly via the stitched path.

mam-api /video endpoint:
- S3 InvalidRange (httpStatusCode 416) was being caught and returned as 500
via next(err), which the video element treats as a fatal load error and
freezes the player. Now we catch the specific 416 case, do a no-range
HEAD-equivalent to learn the real file size, and return proper 416 with
Content-Range: bytes */<total> so the browser can recover.
screens-asset.jsx — player health + buffer visualization:
- New states: playerState ('idle'|'loading'|'playing'|'paused'|'seeking'|
'waiting'|'stalled'|'error'), playerError, buffered (array of {start,end}
ms from HTMLMediaElement.buffered), stallStart, stallElapsedMs
- Wired video element events: onProgress, onWaiting, onStalled, onPlaying,
onCanPlay, onCanPlayThrough, onSeeking, onSeeked, onError
- onError captures MediaError code+message into a console.error and the
on-screen badge so freeze causes are now visible
- Status badge overlay (top-right of player): shows SEEKING / BUFFERING /
STALLED / ERROR + elapsed seconds since the stall began
- PlaybackBar renders buffered ranges as translucent grey segments so you
can see what the browser has loaded vs. what's still pending — makes
seek-related freezes immediately obvious
S3 at broadcastmgmt.cloud (RustFS/openresty) returns 403 on range
requests that include an Origin header on presigned URLs. The HMAC
signature only covers 'host' in X-Amz-SignedHeaders, so the browser's
cross-origin Origin header breaks signature validation.
Reverted: /stream and /video no longer redirect to signed S3 URLs.
Fixed: /video now pipes through Node with:
Cache-Control: private, max-age=3600
ETag and Last-Modified forwarded from S3
This means the browser caches video segments for 1h. On seek the
browser checks its cache first — only uncached byte ranges hit the
server. Combined with the 1.5Mbps proxy (was 4Mbps), seeks should
be responsive for clips under ~10 minutes.
- GET /assets/:id/stream now returns a signed S3 URL directly (4h TTL)
instead of pointing to the /video pipe endpoint. Browser streams
directly from S3 — no Node.js bottleneck, S3 handles range requests
natively for smooth seeking.
- GET /assets/:id/video now redirects (302) to a signed S3 URL.
Belt-and-suspenders: any code still calling /video gets redirected.
- proxy.js: default bitrate changed from 10Mbps to 1.5Mbps, audio
default from 192kbps to 128kbps. DB settings already updated to
1.5Mbps. Cuts proxy file size ~6x for the same quality content.
Existing proxies need re-generation at new bitrate.
Root causes found:
1. Scheduler crashing every 15s: assets table has no error_message column.
Fix: remove error_message from UPDATE in scheduler.js (#66 regression).
2. Clip freezing: client-side filmstrip seek loop runs on main thread,
seeks same proxy the player is streaming → both stall → freeze.
Fix: replace browser seek loop entirely with server-side FFmpeg worker.
3. No dedicated filmstrip worker: filmstrip was never pre-built server-side.
Changes:
- services/mam-api/src/db/migrations/018-add-filmstrip-s3-key.sql
Add filmstrip_s3_key TEXT column to assets table
- services/worker/src/workers/filmstrip.js (new)
BullMQ worker: downloads proxy, runs FFmpeg fps filter to extract
28 evenly-spaced JPEG frames, base64-encodes them, uploads JSON
array to S3 at filmstrips/<assetId>.json, stores key in DB
- services/worker/src/workers/thumbnail.js
Queue filmstrip job automatically after thumbnail completes
- services/worker/src/index.js
Register filmstrip worker (concurrency=2), export filmstripQueue
singleton, close it on SIGTERM
- services/mam-api/src/routes/assets.js
- filmstripQueue added
- POST /reprocess?type=filmstrip now supported
- GET /:id/filmstrip returns signed S3 URL for JSON frames
- services/mam-api/src/routes/jobs.js
filmstrip queue visible in Jobs UI
- services/web-ui/public/screens-asset.jsx
Replace browser seek loop with fetch of /assets/:id/filmstrip
→ fetch S3 JSON → render frames. Zero browser-side video seeking.

Features:
- #93: POST /assets/:id/reprocess?type=proxy|thumbnail — force re-queue any asset
Asset ⋯ menu now shows 'Re-generate proxy' and 'Re-generate thumbnail' buttons
UI:
- Logo: brightness(0) invert(1) filter applied consistently in sidebar, launcher,
and login — white logo pops on dark UI; inline style removed from login.html
Two changes for issue #7 (HLS cleanup + orphan reaper) and the user's
"SRT clips ingest but won't play" complaint:
1) New POST /assets/cleanup-live-orphans — lists every directory under
/live/<uuid>/ and deletes the ones whose UUIDs don't match an asset
row. These accumulate when a recorder crashes mid-capture: the live
HLS dir is created but no asset is ever finalized in the DB, so the
files just sit on disk forever.
2) POST /assets/:id/retry now also works for assets that are 'ready'
or 'archived' but have no proxy_s3_key. The original behavior (only
re-queue when status='error') made it impossible to re-generate a
proxy for older recorder captures that landed without one — the
user could see a thumbnail in the library but the player would just
show "Preview not yet available" with no retry path.
Proxy failures ("moov atom not found"):
- root cause: failed/aborted SRT/RTMP recordings still uploaded 0-byte
(or ftyp-only ~1KB) objects to S3, which ffmpeg can't probe
- worker proxy.js now bails on inputs < 4 KiB with a clear message
before handing the file to ffmpeg
- capture-manager.stop() returns framesReceived + empty flag
- capture shutdown handler skips POST /assets entirely on empty
sessions, instead calls new POST /assets/:id/mark-empty to flip
the pre-created live asset to 'error' with a note
Library asset right-click menu:
- new AssetContextMenu component on screens-library.jsx; right-click
any asset in grid or list view to open
- actions: Open, Rename, Move to bin (lists up to 10 bins), Remove
from bin, Copy asset ID, Delete permanently (hard=true)
- viewport-aware positioning (won't clip past window edges)
- dismisses on outside click / contextmenu / scroll
- Library now refreshes via /assets after mutations; normalizeAsset
exposed on window so the re-fetch shape matches boot
- ctx-menu styles in styles-rest.css
- POST /api/v1/assets: when transitioning from 'live' to 'processing'
with a hi-res key but no proxy, queue a proxy job instead of just
flipping status='ready'. Recorder-captured clips now get a proxy
+ thumbnail like upload-path assets do
- POST /api/v1/recorders/:id/start now accepts { clipName } in the body;
operator-supplied name (sanitized to [A-Za-z0-9 ._-], capped at 80)
overrides the auto-generated <recorder>_<timestamp> fallback
- RecorderRow gets a 'Clip name (optional)' input visible when stopped;
Enter triggers Record, value sent on POST start, cleared on stop
- New POST /api/v1/assets/:id/generate-proxy and
POST /api/v1/assets/backfill-proxies for one-shot cleanup of pre-fix
clips that have a hi-res master but no proxy
- mam-api: add GET /api/v1/assets/:id/video streaming proxy that fetches
from RustFS/S3 and pipes to browser with range-request support, bypassing
direct S3 access from Chrome
- mam-api: fix /stream route to return /video proxy URL for both proxy and
original-mp4 assets; return null cleanly for non-playable sources
- s3/client: set requestChecksumCalculation/responseChecksumValidation to
WHEN_REQUIRED to suppress x-amz-checksum-mode header on signed URLs
- editor: fix loadSourceAsset to set state.sourceAsset even when no proxy
exists (info toast instead of bail-out) so Insert/Overwrite still work
- editor: add drag-and-drop from media panel to timeline — items are now
draggable, timeline container accepts drops and calls Timeline.addClip
with the asset at playhead position
- editor: add tl-drag-over CSS highlight on timeline during drag
Assets stuck in status='error' had no recovery path without manual DB
edits. Adds a retry endpoint that re-dispatches the proxy job, which
chains into thumbnail generation automatically and restores the asset
to 'processing' → 'ready' without operator intervention.
While a recorder is running, the capture container tees an HLS
stream into /live/<assetId>/ alongside the ProRes master upload.
The asset row is pre-created at recorder start with status='live'
so the clip appears in the library immediately. /api/v1/assets/:id/stream
returns the HLS playlist URL until recording stops, then proxy.
* docker-compose: shared wild-dragon-live mount on api/capture/web-ui
* migration 001-add-live-status: idempotent ALTER TYPE for asset_status
* mam-api: runMigrations() on boot; recorders.js pre-creates live asset
+ passes ASSET_ID; assets.js POST upserts on existing live row instead
of inserting a duplicate, and stream route returns HLS for live assets
* capture: parallel HLS ffmpeg into /live/<assetId>/; ASSET_ID env
* web-ui: nginx serves /live/, preview.js loads hls.js, LIVE badge added
* Library cards now show a checkbox on hover (and persistent when selected). Click checkbox = toggle, shift-click = range. Plain click on a card with an active selection extends/shrinks the selection instead of opening preview. Floating pill at the bottom shows count + Move / Copy / Delete / Clear. Move + Copy open a tiny bin picker (current project, default to current bin).
* mam-api/routes/assets.js: PATCH /:id now also accepts bin_id (null = move out of bin). New POST /:id/copy makes a reference-copy of the asset row (same S3 keys, new id) into the target bin/project.
* api.js: moveAsset(id, binId) and copyAsset(id, {binId, projectId}) helpers.
* All accent tokens swapped from the amber oklch(76% 0.178 52) to the Wild Dragon signature blue oklch(55% 0.20 266) = #1f3ad0 ish. Login splash + first-load splash + signal-receiving + button primary all picked it up automatically through common.css.
* Loading indicator across the app uses the AMPP Safe hardhat photo gently pulsing with a tiny blue dot underneath. .ampp-loading component lives in common.css with --sm / --xs / --inline variants. Replaces the plain "Loading assets…" empty state in index.html.
Trash icon in the library was firing PATCH /assets/:id with {status:"deleted"}. The PATCH route only accepts display_name/tags/notes so it returned "No fields to update" and the asset stayed put.
* api.js: add deleteAsset(id, {hard}) helper hitting the real DELETE route.
* index.html: deleteAssetPrompt now calls deleteAsset (soft archive). Confirm dialog reworded to match.
* mam-api/routes/assets.js: list endpoint hides status=archived by default. Pass ?include_archived=true to see them in a future restore-from-trash view. Filtering by ?status=archived still works for power users.
* All HTML: bump api.js cache-buster v=4 -> v=5 so the new helper is fetched.
