- On connect success: hide form, show compact connected-bar with hostname
- On disconnect: clear assets, reset buttons, restore form
- Wire disconnect-btn click to disconnectFromServer()
On startup the full form shows. On successful connect the form hides and a
compact connected-bar appears with the server hostname and a Disconnect button.
CEP's embedded Chromium (used by Premiere Pro panels) does not support
oklch() color syntax. All color tokens were rendering as invalid/transparent,
causing the panel to appear unstyled. Converted all oklch() values to their
precise hex/rgba equivalents via OKLab→sRGB math. No design changes.
The badge initially showed '0' before any poll completed. Toggling
display via JS expects an initial display:none so the badge does not
flash in the tab nav on first connect.
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.
Right-click and Files tab re-generate via API endpoint.
End-to-end debugging against a live Premiere Pro 2025 + auth-enabled mam-api
surfaced four real bugs that made v1.0.0 install cleanly but never load,
plus the missing auth flow. All four are fixed and the panel is verified
connected (status dot green, Reconnect button shown, project list populated).
- manifest.xml: a comment in the <Resources> block contained "--" (inside
"--enable-nodejs"/"--mixed-context"), which is illegal per the XML spec.
CEP 12's strict parser logged
ERROR XPATH Double hyphen within comment
and skipped the panel entirely. Comment rewritten without double hyphens.
- manifest.xml: lacked the Version="X.Y" attribute on <ExtensionManifest>
and used a non-standard AbstractionLayers/empty <ExtensionList/>
structure. CEP rejected it with
Unsupported Manifest version ''
Manifest rewritten to the standard CSXS 7.0 schema (ExtensionList +
DispatchInfoList + RequiredRuntimeList), matching the working AMPP
panel template.
- main.js: re-declared `const csInterface = new CSInterface()` at top
level even though CSInterface.js already declared the same binding.
CEP 12 shares script-realm lexical scope across <script> tags, so the
second const threw
Identifier 'csInterface' has already been declared
The throw fired before setupEventListeners(), so the Connect button's
click handler was never attached. This is the root cause of the
original "clicking Connect does nothing" symptom; everything else was
secondary. Removed the duplicate declaration; main.js now uses the
binding from CSInterface.js.
- No auth support against AUTH_ENABLED=true servers. mam-api supports
Bearer tokens (POST /api/v1/tokens), so added:
• API token input field (password-masked) next to Server URL
• localStorage persistence on every keystroke
• window.fetch monkey-patch that injects
Authorization: Bearer <token>
on every request whose URL starts with the configured server.
Signed S3 download URLs are NOT touched.
Drive-by fixes that came out of the same debugging pass:
- Server URL input listener was 'change' (fires on blur); switched to
'input' so typing-then-clicking-Connect immediately commits.
- restoreSettings() now strips trailing slashes from the stored URL so
older saved values like 'http://host/' stop producing //api/v1 404s.
- CSS selector `input[type="text"].server-url` didn't match the new
password input → the token field was unstyled and effectively invisible.
Generalized to `input.server-url`; restructured the connection bar into
`.connection-controls--stacked` (flex column) of two `.server-input-row`
rows so two input fields fit cleanly.
- Build scripts now parse ExtensionBundleVersion from both element form
(<ExtensionBundleVersion>X</...>) and attribute form
(ExtensionBundleVersion="X"), since the manifest rewrite switched
schemas.
Version bumped 1.0.0 → 1.0.1. New artifacts committed at
services/premiere-plugin/build/releases/v1.0.1/ (.exe 2 MB, .zxp 35 KB).
v1.0.0 left in place so editors who downloaded it can verify they're on
the broken version.

Drops dragonflight-premiere-panel-1.0.0-windows-setup.exe (2 MB) and
dragonflight-premiere-panel-1.0.0.zxp (35 KB) at
services/premiere-plugin/build/releases/v1.0.0/ so the binaries have
stable URLs on the forge without needing a separate release artifact
flow.
Heads-up: this commits 2 MB of binary into git history. Future bumps
should use Forgejo Releases (release assets are external to git history
and easy to delete) rather than another commit under releases/.

End-to-end verification on a fresh Windows machine surfaced three issues:
1. pwsh isn't installed by default — Windows ships powershell.exe (5.1).
Switched all script invocations + docs from `pwsh` to `powershell`.
2. .NET's strict XML parser rejects manifest.xml because the <Resources>
comment legally contains `--` (inside `--enable-nodejs`/`--mixed-context`
CEF flag names). Switched build-installer.ps1 to regex extraction,
matching what build-zxp.mjs already does.
3. winget installs Inno Setup 6 to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs by default, not
Program Files (x86). Added the user-scope path to the ISCC.exe fallback
list.
Verified: `powershell -File build-all.ps1` produces both artifacts —
dragonflight-premiere-panel-1.0.0.zxp (35 KB, signature valid)
dragonflight-premiere-panel-1.0.0-windows-setup.exe (2 MB).

The Premiere-running check passed a Boolean to Exec's var ResultCode (Integer)
parameter — Pascal type error. The block also did nothing useful: it only
checked but never warned or prompted. Drop it. {InstallDelete] of the legacy
folder still works through the Tasks checkbox + Check function.

The initial pass referenced zxp-sign-cmd@0.2.2 which never shipped (latest
is 2.0.0) and used the v1.x callback API. v2 is promise-based — rewrote
build-zxp.mjs accordingly.
Also commits the freshly-generated self-signed cert + passphrase from the
first local build run. From now on every build reuses these so Adobe's
ZXP signature-continuity rule is satisfied across versions.
Verified end-to-end: `npm install && node build-zxp.mjs` produces
dist/dragonflight-premiere-panel-1.0.0.zxp (34.7 KB), signature verifies,
cert valid until 2051.

Replaces the manual robocopy / install-windows.ps1 flow with two real
distributable artifacts:
- dragonflight-premiere-panel-<version>.zxp (Mac + Win)
- dragonflight-premiere-panel-<version>-windows-setup.exe (Win)
The Windows installer copies the bundle to %APPDATA%\Adobe\CEP\extensions,
sets PlayerDebugMode=1 for CSXS 8..13, registers an uninstaller, and
offers to remove any legacy com.wilddragon.mam.panel folder so editors
don't end up with duplicate panels.
The .zxp is signed with a self-signed cert generated on first build and
committed to build/cert/ so signature continuity is preserved across
builds (Adobe rejects ZXP upgrades with a different cert fingerprint).
Also migrates the CEP bundle ID from com.wilddragon.mam.panel to
net.wilddragon.dragonflight.panel to match the wild-dragon -> dragonflight
repo rename. Manifest, .debug, CSInterface.js, install docs, and the
growing-files quickstart all updated.
build/ is normally swept by the root .gitignore; added an explicit
negation so the packaging pipeline stays tracked.

- Active sequence info bar shows current Premiere sequence name
- Import Proxy / Hi-Res split buttons replace single Import button
- Export panel (hidden) slides in with seq name, project picker, clip count
- Export Timeline button in second action row triggers panel
- Fix: /stream returns relative URL — prepend serverUrl before Node.js download
- Add: importAssetHires() calls /assets/:id/hires for original file
- Add: saveImportMapping() stores tempPath→assetId in localStorage so
timeline export can match Premiere clips back to MAM assets
- Add: startExportTimeline() reads active sequence via exportTimelineData(),
shows export panel with seq name + clip count
- Add: confirmExportTimeline() resolves paths→assetIds, upserts sequence,
PUT /sequences/:id/clips
- Add: refreshCurrentSequenceInfo() shows active sequence name in info bar
exportTimelineData() walks all video tracks in the active sequence and
returns clip source/timeline frame positions + file paths so the panel JS
can map them back to MAM asset IDs for timeline export.
getProjectItems() enumerates all ProjectItems with paths — useful for
rebuilding the import mapping after a Premiere restart.
Click any asset card to open a modal with the H.264 proxy playing inline (or audio/image, per media_type). Esc or click outside closes. Sidebar shows status/codec/resolution/fps/duration/size/created plus tags and notes.
Plugin install side: added install-windows.ps1 that copies the CEP panel to %APPDATA%\Adobe\CEP\extensions, flips PlayerDebugMode=1 across the CSXS.8-13 hives, and prints the next steps. Plugin already wired against the current API.
* services/web-ui/public/js/preview.js: standalone IIFE that lazy-injects the modal markup + CSS on first use. Renders <video controls> (or <audio>, <img>) sourced from /api/v1/assets/:id/stream, with sidebar from /api/v1/assets/:id. Falls back to a clear empty state when proxy is still processing.
* services/web-ui/public/index.html: loads preview.js, wires asset-card click to window.openAssetPreview(asset.id), guards against delete-button clicks bubbling.
* services/premiere-plugin/install-windows.ps1: one-shot Windows installer for the CEP extension.
