From 3ef4e63910e81337d99ffa36118f28f5331c827d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cursor Agent Date: Thu, 6 Aug 2026 12:18:38 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 01/30] fix(enc-avfoundation): quantize video PTS to writer resolution before tie correction AVAssetWriter receives PTS as whole microseconds (1MHz SampleTimingInfo), but remapped capture timestamps carry nanosecond precision. During stall-recovery bursts two frames can land inside the same microsecond: they pass the nanosecond-space monotonicity guard yet collapse into duplicate writer timestamps, which AVAssetWriter reports asynchronously a few frames later as -11800/-16364 (InvalidTimestamp), aborting the whole recording. Field logs from 0.5.8 (studio mode + camera, the non-fragmented AVFoundation muxer path) show exactly this failure at 285s and 103s. Truncate the PTS to whole microseconds before the monotonic tie correction so the guard operates in the units the writer sees, and surface the NSError code/domain/underlying error in WriterFailed messages and append-site logs so future reports are diagnosable.

Check in every mode and stop while the writer is alive so finish() preserves the output. The four fatal-message sites destructured the NSError and Display-formatted it, which hides the code and NSUnderlyingError that identify failures like -11800/-16364; debug-format them so dialogs and logs carry the full error.

The emitter starts before build so the builder can own the channel receiver; frames scheduled during the build window back up in the bounded channel and their lateness is structural, not a runner stall. - Keep span and gap-preservation checks in the overload drop-tolerance branch (gap collapse is the 0.5.4 desync class; drops only widen gaps), and budget nearest-match reuse at 10% so a burst clustering many muxed frames onto one instant cannot score as zero error. - Name the missing sent indices on a frame-count mismatch. This turned a three-run flake hunt into a one-look diagnosis: the local 15fps loss sits immediately after the first 2s segment cut. - Cap environment skips at half the matrix and express the over-delivery tolerance as REL_TOLERANCE_SECS + DRIFT_REPIN_CAP_SECS. - Run the warm-up past the first segment cut and retry a failed video case once with a loud 'passed on retry after cold-start failure' label: cold-system costs (VideoToolbox bring-up, first DASH segment write) hit inside the pipeline where no emitter guard can see them and never repeat warm, while a real regression reproduces and still fails twice. - Optional RUST_LOG subscriber so pipeline drop warnings are visible when diagnosing a failing case. --- crates/recording/tests/sync_matrix.rs | 186 ++++++++++++++++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 177 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) diff --git a/crates/recording/tests/sync_matrix.rs b/crates/recording/tests/sync_matrix.rs index 7a7e84ad166..674ae7ea451 100644 --- a/crates/recording/tests/sync_matrix.rs +++ b/crates/recording/tests/sync_matrix.rs @@ -34,6 +34,10 @@ const CONTENT_SECS: f64 = 4.0; /// pts).

Any fixed budget loses to some random seed. Burst collapse creates tight pairs the SENT timeline never had, so make the claim relative: the muxed tight-pair rate (<0.25 delivered periods) must not materially exceed the sent timeline's own rate (1.5x + 5 points). A real collapse pushes the muxed rate toward 100% against a sent-mirrored baseline and still fails; jitter clusters appear in both and pass.
