Snap between framings on the cut the source already made - #178
Conversation
Three of six camera switches in a shipped clip flashed to bare wall. Frame by
frame at 24fps the worst is a hard cut to wall at frame 73, two frames held on
it, then a five frame fade into the right framing: 209ms about 50 luma brighter
than either speaker.
The stitch pads every run by the dissolve length to give the dissolve somewhere
to happen, and that pad runs this run's crop over the next run's content. Over a
layout change the subject has already moved, so the pad is the wrong framing by
construction and the dissolve blends a correct frame into a wall. The subject
survives the pad only while the next centre is still inside this crop, half a
window either side. Here the widest boundary was 1167px against a 607px reach.
Past that reach the crop snaps between framings as a step function of time, in
the pass that was already cropping. A step expression rather than a part per run
joined end to end, because cutting and rejoining drifts: -t keeps the frame that
starts before the cut and each part's audio carries its own encoder padding,
measured at 61 to 100ms per part and 403ms across five runs, leaving the video
177ms short of its own audio. One pass has nothing to accumulate.
Boundaries then snap to the source's own cuts. Runs close at the first sample
that noticed a change and the sampler runs at about 12Hz, so a boundary sat up
to 83ms late and two frames of the old crop landed on the new layout. Those
frames were both the wall left in shot and a second scene change 83ms after the
source's own, and that pair read as clustered cuts, which pulled the transition
blur onto a cut that never needed it.
Measured against 2.7.6 on two ranges:
336-365s wall frames 6 -> 0 worst flash 209ms -> none
1100-1135s wall frames 8 -> 1 worst flash 209ms -> 42ms
edge energy near cuts 6.52 -> 7.85
Both keep their exact length and come out one frame shorter.
.venv joins .gitignore. The file had venv/ only, so a 202MB virtualenv at the
repo root was one git add -A away from being committed.

Three of six camera switches in a shipped clip flashed to bare wall. Frame by frame at 24fps, the worst one:
Why
The stitch pads every run by the dissolve length to give the dissolve somewhere to happen, and that pad runs this run's crop over the next run's content. Over a layout change the subject has already moved, so the pad is the wrong framing by construction and the dissolve blends a correct frame into a wall.
The subject survives the pad only while the next centre is still inside this crop, half a window either side. Here the widest boundary was 1167px against a 607px reach.
What it does instead
Past that reach the crop snaps between framings as a step function of time, in the pass that was already cropping.
A step expression rather than a part per run joined end to end, because cutting and rejoining drifts. Measured:
-tkeeps the frame that starts before the cut, and each part's audio carries its own encoder padding. That left the video 177ms short of its own audio, which is the drift class #175 was written to fix. One pass has nothing to accumulate.Boundaries then snap to the source's own cuts. Runs close at the first sample that noticed a change and the sampler runs at about 12Hz, so a boundary sat up to 83ms late and two frames of the old crop landed on the new layout. Those frames were both the wall left in shot and a second scene change 83ms after the source's own:
That 83ms pair read as clustered cuts, which pulled
_apply_local_transition_smoothingonto a cut that never needed it and cost 20% of the edge energy around it.Measured against 2.7.6
Edge energy near cuts on the second range: 6.52 → 7.85. Both clips keep their exact length and come out one frame shorter, from the
-tclamp taking the tail frame.Also
