The exporter transcodes ADV.wmv and S00A.wmv to Ogg Theora and records the exact
ffmpeg command in the manifest, per MISSION §6, so a modder who dislikes the
quality re-runs one line rather than reverse-engineering what was done.
Quality was MEASURED, not judged: SSIM against the decoded source over a 10 s
sample is 0.9863 / 0.9896 / 0.9924 at -q:v 6 / 8 / 10, and at 200 % zoom on the
reel's hardest case -- fine serif text and soft gradients over near-black, where
Theora breaks first -- q8 is indistinguishable. So MISSION §6's permitted
FFmpeg-GDExtension fallback is NOT needed and is NOT being proposed. No new
runtime dependency.
-ac 2 because the source is 6-channel WMA Pro; that downmix is a decision, so it
lives in the recorded command rather than in prose.
Encoding is cached on a .cmd sidecar holding the command and the source size --
any change to either re-encodes. export/ is still regenerated wholesale; this is
derived state validating derived state, not a hand-edit, and without it every
re-export pays ~4 minutes to produce a byte-identical file.
The player renders INTO the design SubViewport. Parenting it to the Boot node
played the movie to the window instead, and every captured frame came out black
-- which is worth more than a capture-bug note: a movie outside the 1280x720
design space is outside the coordinate system every screen is expressed in.
(A) skips a movie, because Q9 measured that (title at 57 s vs a 193 s baseline).
NOT VERIFIED, and stated as such: audible playback. This container has no audio
device and Godot falls back to the dummy driver. The Vorbis stream exists, is
2-channel and decodes; whether Godot emits it is unconfirmed.
There were TWO splash screens and this port had neither. Entries 11/14 are the
developer logos; entries 10/13 are the SQUARE ENIX publisher wordmark, the first
thing the boot shows, which nothing in this project had noticed.
They have no .rat layout child so `is_build` cannot see them, and the RE agent
established that no CONTENT rule can either: design size fails (every extra
composable bundle sampled is 1280x720, same as every screen) and element count
fails (fragments run 2..15 elements in GP_OPTIONS/GP_SAVE_LOAD, the splash
halves are 3 and 7 -- the ranges overlap).
So `screen_builds` is `is_build` plus an authored allow-list of ENTRY INDICES,
each carrying a `why` that says it is a locator and not a claim. An allow-list
rather than a loosened predicate because this is safe in GP_TITLE and would not
be in general: there, widening adds exactly four bundles and all four are real
screens, zero fragments.
screen_names.json is rekeyed from enumeration ordinal to pak entry. Widening
renumbers ordinals, and a name that moves when the enumeration rule changes is
not a name -- the file always called the entry the stronger locator, and it is
now the only stable one. The two unnamed plates therefore renamed build_10/11 ->
build_12/15; they were always locators, and now they locate the right thing.
All 16 export and validate.
