adminandClaude Opus 5.5 ce933a4f32 Let a drag change only the picked clip in the Sound and Video tab (#403)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 4m15s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 15m40s
A drag with a clip picked could span a new clip in the strip or span
the picked one anew over the wave. Both happened by accident while
working on a clip. Now a drag only makes a new clip while none is
picked. With one picked it moves its edges or the whole of it.

- With no clip picked, a drag in the strip or over the wave (in the
  Video tab the track) spans a new clip, as before.
- A click over the wave or in the track picks the clip at that point,
  as a click on its band does. Beside the clips it picks the sound or
  the video. The picked clip wins where clips lie over each other.
- With a clip picked, its handles move its edges as before. A drag on
  its band in the strip moves the whole clip, its length kept and
  inside the file. Any other drag does nothing.
- The rules live in waveView.ts (clipGrip, clipToPick, movedSpan) and
  both tabs use them. The cursor shows grab over the picked band.
- The Video tab's track draws the clips not picked faint, as the wave
  does, so a click there has something to aim at.

Tests:
- Unit wave-view.test.ts: 16 tests (4 new)
- Counter-check: a strip drag beside the picked clip spanning a new
  one again fails the picked-clip rule test
- e2e 34 + 66 (atx): ALL PASSED, 162 checks, 1 new check in each
- Gate (atx): 295 files, 4527 tests

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 d48f174caf Play videos on sprites, converted on the server with clips (#402)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 4m15s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 15m49s
A video becomes an asset like a sound: uploaded once, converted to one
format by a worker of its own, cut into clips in its tab, and worn by a
sprite through its Texture row. Only Chrome is a target, without alpha.

- Server: POST ?r=videos queues the upload under the hash of its bytes,
  so the MP4's name is known at once. The worker (VideoWorker over
  VideoFormat) writes H.264/AAC, yuv420p, constant frame rate, a
  keyframe every 15 frames, at most 1920x1080, with a poster and the
  details beside it. A failed job says why and is tried again on the
  next upload.
- An upload may be up to 2 GB. It is streamed from the request to disk
  and hashed there, so php-fpm holds none of it in memory. The other
  routes keep their 256 MB.
- The worker runs in the container game-maker-video on stein2, a
  compose project of its own (tools/video/), and in CI beside the PHP
  server. The CI image has ffmpeg for it.
- Model: asset type video with size, length, frame rate and sound, and
  clips like a sound's. The clip helpers and commands serve both.
- A sprite's Texture row offers videos and clips after the pictures.
  resolvePicture names a playing video by a key, and the texture library
  hands it to a VideoLibrary with one player per key.
- The editor shows a placed video as a quiet preview. Play starts it
  over at its clip's start and lets it be heard through the master bus,
  a pause holds it, Esc makes it quiet again.
- Video tab: the picture, a ruler, the clip strip and a track on the
  Sound tab's time axis. A drag spans a clip, a handle moves an edge,
  Play plays the picked clip.
- The picker shows a video on its way with its progress and adopts an
  upload from it once it is ready. Dropping a video file does the same.

Decided on my own:

- Two sprites wearing the same clip share one player and show the same
  picture. Control per instance belongs to the follow-up with nodes.
- A video plays in real time, the game's time scale does not slow it.
- The container may use 3 of the 4 cores of stein2.

Findings:

- The first real upload (279 MB) got 413: the API's own ceiling of
  256 MB for every request, not nginx or the Brandmauer.
- Chrome has no picture of a video that never played, and a Pixi
  VideoSource drawn before the first frame stays empty for good. The
  texture is made in the first frame callback (openVideo).
- A player nobody asks for in 2 s is let go. The inspector's PREVIEW
  asked only on an edit, so with the sprite not on screen its texture
  was destroyed under it and the batcher threw on every frame. The
  preview now redraws every frame while it shows a video, like a Time
  shader. A let-go texture keeps an empty source instead of none.
- VideoSource.load() reloads the element and cuts off an earlier
  play(). Playing starts after loadeddata.

Tests:

- PHP videos.test.php: 68 checks, with the real ffmpeg
- 300 MB upload through Brandmauer and nginx: 201 in 21 s, php-fpm at
  13.7 MB RSS at most
- Unit videos.test.ts: 20 tests
- e2e 66 (stein2, atx was off): ALL PASSED, 18 checks; e2e 04 with the
  new asset count green
- Gate (atx): 294 files, 4520 tests. serialize.test.ts used video as
  its example of an unknown type and now uses a made-up one.
- Counter-checks: a keyframe gap of 30 fails the PHP check, a key that
  keeps the video's end fails 2 unit tests, a clip without its end
  fails "plays only its stretch" in e2e 66
