formats: teach the reference renderer the additive blend, and re-open 8 claims
The blend bit has been decoded against RB_BLENDCONTROL0 since 2026-08-31, but ui_layout::blit could not draw it, and said so in a comment citing a refutation that is <render-vs-capture> -- this renderer disagreeing with itself while it had a stale keyframe association, no leaf geometry and no rotation. The consequence the port raised: verify-screen compares two renderers, so a renderer that structurally cannot express a declared field makes the check incapable on every screen that uses it -- 12 of 16 -- and the tolerance silently excuses all of them. A quiet check is worse than a failing one. Both equations come off the game's own pixel shader, which premultiplies (oC0 = rgb*A, A), so only the blend register differs: 0x07010701 gives rgb*A + dst*(1-A), 0x01010101 gives rgb*A + dst. Additive therefore saturates rather than wrapping, and a transparent or black source is the identity -- neither is a choice. No plumbing needed: t8ad::parse already stores +0x04 as T8adImage::flags. Four controls, pinned against arithmetic per the rotation precedent. The fourth is the only one that can fail for the right reason: the first three pass just as well if blit ignores the flag and draws everything additive, so the discriminator flips only the blend on one sprite and requires two different answers, each equal to its own equation. That is the same failure class as the port's non-inverting latch check and my own backward scan that resolved every guard to "internal". 120 passed, 0 failed on the full lib suite. 67 sprites over 14 screens were being drawn with the wrong blend, including 10 of 18 on the title and ptbtn00f, the PRESS (A) plate's highlight. R1: tools/stale-instrument render-vs-capture lists 8 claims that died to this instrument, including both legs of the rest() pair and "the plate-free title capture may be too early to be settled", which sits on play-test finding 3. None is re-derived here; this only records that the instrument no longer exists in that form. Also corroborates the port's H5: pgloading_loop5 is an ELEMENT resolving to sprite pgloading_ring.t32, which is additive. I could not find loop5 as a sprite in any pak and nearly reported a false contradiction from the element/sprite name split.

formats: expose the T8aD blend bit on the public API, with a control
`ui-blend-mode-decoded.md` established the field but nothing on `Element` reached it, so the exporter could only key a blend map by SCREEN NAME -- which asserted-by-omission that the Japanese menus blend differently from the English ones. Adds `sprite_header_word_04`, `header_word_04_by_name`, `sprite_blend_additive` and `blend_additive_by_name`, plus `examples/blend_api_check.rs`: the accessor the exporter will actually call, checked against the same 35 oracle rows read out of the guest command stream. 22/22 agree, 0 mismatched. The control requires entry 6 to report BOTH values (additive=9, alpha-over=7), so an accessor stuck at one answer fails rather than scoring 100%.

formats: expose loop_length_units -- the port was reading +0x08 itself
sylpheed-port reports that a record's loop length is on no public ref at all (example, test and docs/re/ only), so their screen.rs parses the four bytes with its own RATC guard. That is my field to publish. One function serves both levels, since a nested .rat leaf is itself a RATC bundle with the same header shape. Returns None for a non-RATC or short slice so callers need no guard of their own. Verified against the disc, controls first: rejects a non-RATC slice, rejects one too short for the field, reads big-endian at +0x08 -- then reproduces every published value (ptbtn00f 120, ptloop01 600, ptloop02 720) over 65 GP_TITLE records with 0 violations of +0x08 >= largest keyframe time.

re: two fixed-code-under-unfixed-description hits in the crate the port pins
sylpheed-port named a pattern narrower than "docs go stale": a correct fix sitting directly beneath a refuted description in the same file, within twenty lines. Not drift -- editing at the point of failure without re-reading the frame around it. Applied their grep (the vocabulary the OLD rule needed) to my crate and found two. ui_layout.rs:308, in rest_plateau's fallback: `continue; // the last frame carries no time`. That is the pre-fix rule, on a branch that is now UNREACHABLE -- measured at 0 untimed of 24 811 keyframes across 965 builds. Kept as a guard because `time` is still Option<u32> and a malformed group could yield None, but relabelled: it is no longer a description of the format. ui_layout.rs:268, on the `lastall` rest override: "This is what the shifted time reading predicts ... testing it against the captures is an independent check on that reading." The shifted reading was refuted by the record-layout fix in the same file. The override survives as a plain "take the last keyframe" diagnostic alongside the documented `last` and `maxalpha`, and now says so. Both corrections quote the original sentence so the change is visible rather than silently overwritten -- the practice the port adopted from me this iteration. Verified by artifact rather than by "it compiles": a comment-only edit must leave output byte-identical, and the build-7 render's md5 is unchanged at 141771d8f1a2b3496cfd679c6cd45d1a. METHOD records the pattern with the two greps that find it: the vocabulary of the dead rule in code, and a HEDGE around something the current reader states exactly in prose -- a "~0" marks where the old reader could not see.

formats: drop the 1.5 MB cap that truncated 17 voice regions' first stream
The cause, and the fix, with a disc-wide check. resolve_movie_voice_region picks start = the predecessor cue's trailer, then filtered it with 'end - s < 1_500_000' -- 'only within one bank'. ADV's predecessor sits 3 618 816 B before end, so the filter rejected it and start fell back to anchor, which is a TOC offset and not a stream boundary. That explains the shape of the defect exactly: it strikes regions larger than 1.5 MB, which is why the three-stream multichannel regions are hit and single-stream ones never are. 17 of 95 resolving movies took the fallback. ADV's predecessor trailer at 433 425 776 plus 17 040 B of descriptor and padding is 433 442 816 -- the -238-packet start measured against the decoder, to the byte. Dropping the cap: unchanged 78, fixed cleanly 17, changed in any other way ZERO. In all 17 the only difference is a larger first chunk with every later chunk byte-identical, which is what a corrected start looks like and what pulling in a neighbouring asset does not. Regression test pinned to the RUNNING DECODER's byte_sizes rather than to this crate's own output. That is the point of it: every internal check passed happily while a third of a stream was missing, so only an external number could have caught this class of bug. sylpheed-formats: 136 tests pass, 0 fail (the one still running at commit time is an unrelated long mesh test). Exact clips for the other 16 are not independently verified -- the sweep is strong but ADV is the only one with a decoder measurement behind it.

formats: test backdrop coverage per instant, and record where the .tbm hunt reached
Two things, neither of which moves a verdict. The port pointed out that rejecting on DECLARED size replaces one error with its mirror: an element scaled ABOVE 100% could cover the screen from a smaller declared size, and my guard would silently exclude it. Checked against the disc first: across 921 keyless elements, ZERO cover the screen only via scale, so the mirror case does not occur here. Adopted anyway, because the construction does not need that to stay true -- coverage is now tested per instant against the scaled size, alongside the opacity test, since both animate on the same ramp. 80 forced instances before and after, split 42 .prm / 38 .tbm, unchanged. Second: an attempt to upgrade the 38 .tbm verdicts from inferred to decoded by finding the texture and measuring its alpha coverage. It cannot be located. Not in its bundle (no RATC record, no sprite-table entry, for any of the 13 names); not a file (no .tbm anywhere on the disc); not a pak entry (its archive's hashed TOC contains none of the name, its uppercase form, its stem, .t32/.tga/.xpr variants, or ui\\ and tex\\ prefixes, across four archives); and not visible in our composite, since compose skips an element with no resolvable sprite, so we draw no pixels for a .tbm at all -- and no committed capture covers a screen that has one. So a second reading survives and is recorded rather than excluded: a .tbm may contribute no pixels, in which case its paint position is INERT rather than correct. That leaves the 38 harmless instead of right -- a different claim with the same consequence. Distinguishing them needs a capture of GP_SAVE_LOAD, GP_BUNK or GP_DEBRIEFING_PILOTLOG, all behind the A fault. One upgrade: pfbase.tbm's first position is MEASURED, not inferred -- it is element 0 of the save/load frame and the order read off the running game starts [0, 1, 2, ...]. Twelve of the thirteen .tbm names still rest on the rule. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01QsEPXWVaEpyfudtR6re1Pd |

re: primitive blend mode -- undecodable with reach, and no longer a risk
Looked in four places. The bundle has no field: a primitive has no RATC child at all and the declaration words are constant across every element of three measured screens -- the two grounds ui-prm-primitives.md already used to refute a bundle-side LAYER key, and they apply identically to blend. The colour census: every full-screen *eff00* primitive on the disc carries pure black at its various alphas, and the only non-black primitive anywhere is pbafc.prm, RGB 00e8e0 cyan. The occlusion constraint cannot reach that one. pbafc.prm looked alarming at a declared 844x600 and alpha ff; it is a small moving glint. It strobes between alpha 255 and 124 every 2 units, travels from x=178 to x=291, and is scaled 2%x3%, so it draws about 17x18 pixels. At that size it occludes essentially nothing. The oracle is unavailable: GP_READY_ROOM is a recorded no-go and gameplay needs the A press that faults the guest in this container. But the consequence closes even though the question does not. For a BLACK quad -- which is every primitive forced_backdrop touches -- the hypotheses differ only in whether it hides what is beneath. Drawn first it is correct under both; drawn last it is correct only under additive. So the rule's verdict is robust to the open question, and the port's original "layerless sorts last" was wrong under alpha-over and merely pointless under additive. This is explicitly NOT evidence for alpha-over. The investigation also found forced_backdrop judging coverage from the pivot alone, ignoring scale -- pbafc.prm is the disc's own proof that a nominally 844x600 element can draw at 2%. Checked before changing anything: all 80 forced instances are at scale 100% on every opaque instant, so no verdict moved. The guard now requires scale >= 100 at the instants it counts as opaque. Defensive, not a fix. 4 + 13 disc tests green either side. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01QsEPXWVaEpyfudtR6re1Pd |

formats: a keyless primitive that would hide the screen is forced to paint first
Partly closes ui-prm-primitives.md's standing blocker, "where an UNMEASURED
primitive paints". Raised by the port: build_12/build_15 composite to solid
black at every instant of their declared life, because pgloading_eff00.prm -- a
full-screen opaque quad -- sorts last.
The rule is a constraint read off the file, not a preference: an element that
covers the screen and is fully opaque at some instant cannot paint above
anything visible at that instant. Where the elements visible during its opaque
span are ALL of them, its position is forced to first.
pgloading_eff00.prm is opaque for 39 instants and all 9 other elements are
visible inside that span -> forced first, 4/4 instances.
Two controls, both measured orders from the running game, and the rule has to
survive both:
* palogo_eff0.prm is measured painting FIRST -- opaque 211 instants, forced
below 6 of 6. It is NAMED like an overlay, so a name-based rule sorts it
wrong against a measured order. Occlusion gets it right.
* pteff00.prm is measured painting LAST -- opaque for 2 instants at its
screen's entry and exit, forced below only 3 of 23, so the constraint
permits it on top where it belongs.
Disc-wide: 80 instances forced first, 50 constrained but not forced, 0
unconstrained. The split runs almost exactly along the names -- every *base* is
forced, every *eff00* is not -- with three families crossing it, which is
exactly why the name is not the rule.
It also explains 36 builds the corpus had recorded as "coming out one colour"
with no cause: pzeff00.prm is forced first in 32 of 32 instances, so they were
wiped by our own sort rather than by the game.
The rule's real limit was found by its own disc-wide test failing. Applied to
any element it claimed 22 .t32 SPRITES must sort first against their own layer
keys -- pneff01.t32 (key 0xd850, #8 of 13) and pbfriendly.t32 (0x9230, #17 of
49). A sprite's ELEMENT alpha says nothing about whether its TEXTURE covers the
screen, so forced_backdrop is now restricted to untextured primitives, which is
also the only case derived_paint_order consults it for.
Reach stated: assumes straight alpha-over (blend mode is still open, and an
additive quad at alpha 255 would not occlude); it is a lower bound, not an
ordering; and there is no new oracle measurement -- both controls are prior
ones, and a loading screen is not reachable from the title path.
3 new disc tests; the 13 paint-order tests are green, including
the_derived_order_matches_the_measured_ones_up_to_ties.

formats: a settled screen is one instant, not one hold per element
`Element::rest()` picks each element's last hold keyframe independently of every other element, so a composite built from it is not the screen at any moment in time -- it is a per-element maximum. For a transient that is exactly wrong: a two-frame flash's last hold IS the flash peak, so it burns forever. GP_TITLE build 4 is the case. `ptlogo_back2eff1`..`eff5` are five staggered two-frame flashes -- one light sweep drawn as five frames, all extinguished by t110 -- that `rest()` draws simultaneously and permanently. Five stacked white glows saturate the light arc behind the logo. The disc names the right instant: the midpoint of the longest interval containing no keyframe of any element. `UiBuild::settle_time()` and `settle_window()`; `screen render --settle` applies it and prints the window, whose width is how much the midpoint is worth. Predicted t=198 from [160,236] BEFORE scoring. Against the console capture, the arc band goes 33.22 -> 11.79 and pixels at the clipping level 8581 -> 1452, where the console has 1459 -- an unfitted statistic. Whole frame 14.07 -> 12.06. Controls at t=100 and t=358 are far worse, and a hand-picked visibility list reaches the identical numbers. `ComposeOptions::at` now poses every element rather than leaves only, which is why the earlier rotation pose scan was flat: it moved the sweeps and never touched the top-level flashes. `at = None` is byte-identical (cmp), the pre-rotation tag renders identically at rest, and the 13 paint-order tests plus the keyframe/focus/opt-link disc tests are green. Also fixes the diagnostic that caused a wrong finding to be sent to the port agent: `not drawn` listed bare names, and a kind-0x4 ghost carries its template's name, so four ghosts printed as `ptlogo1.t32`/`ptlogo2.t32` and read as "the logo is missing". It now prints index, name and reason. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01QsEPXWVaEpyfudtR6re1Pd |

formats: a scale-0 leaf must not claim the draw and blank its parent
Found by inspection while the disc tests ran. The leaf branch set its something-was-drawn flag unconditionally after calling blit, but blit returns early on a zero scale -- collapsed to nothing, not unset. So a scale-0 leaf would have been counted as drawn, its parent skipped, and the element blanked outright. pgloading_loop5 s leaf is scale (0,0), so this was live on all four loading screens, and scale-0 is one of the failures this corpus is already named for. Fixed by skipping a zero-scale leaf pose before it can claim the draw; the loading builds render afterwards at 4.0 percent non-black.

formats: teach the renderer to rotate (Option A) -- and report that it does not close the title
The human chose Option A: teach sylpheed-formats own renderer to draw rotation_deg so it and the port stay comparable and verify-screen keeps meaning someone is wrong. Three pieces, because rotation alone does nothing on the title. blit gains a rotated path that draws by inverse mapping over the rotated bounding box, turning about the pivot, whose absolute position is invariant under scale; zero rotation keeps the original forward-mapped path byte for byte so non-rotating screens cannot regress. compose draws a nested .rat leaf when the leaf carries geometry the parent does not, which is the sweeps case, but not as a blanket rule since a button s leaf duplicates its parent. And --at poses leaves at a keyframe time, because the sweeps hold off-screen at x=1521 so a resting composite omits them. A trap found the hard way: posing EVERYTHING at one global time is wrong, because a top-level group s final keyframes are its exit ramp and rest() deliberately stops before them. Posing the title at t=358 walked every parent into its exit and drove the disagreement from 10.92 to 61.74. So at poses leaves only. Controls: 0 and 360 degrees byte-identical to the unrotated path, 90 degrees swaps a 10x4 to 4x10, area conserved within 15 percent, centroid stays on the pivot. 116 lib tests pass, main_menu unchanged at 9.26. And the verification did not show what it was meant to, which is reported rather than buried: scanning the pose time against the title capture gives 10.73 to 11.17 against a 10.92 baseline -- flat, no minimum, best 1.7 percent. The whole-frame mean is dominated by the tone curve, and the renderer still does not draw ptlogo1/ptlogo2 at all, which is a far larger spatial gap than two translucent sweeps. So rotation is correct in isolation and no screen regressed, but whether it closes the port s 1.81 percent is not established here.

formats: XMA1 is not a WAVEFORMATEX -- audio info was reading three wrong fields
parse_riff_wave read every fmt chunk as a WAVEFORMATEX. XMA1 (tag 0x0165) is not one, so audio info reported the disc s movie voices as 16 channels, 4310 Hz, 2-bit: 16 is wBitsPerSample read as a channel count and 4310 is wEncodeOptions (0x10d6) read as a sample rate. This misled me earlier in the session and I recorded it as a limitation before finding the cause. XMA1 carries XMAWAVEFORMAT followed by one XMASTREAMFORMAT per stream. The reader now branches on the tag and reads bits at +2, PsuedoBytesPerSec at +12, SampleRate at +16 and Channels at +29. The same three files now report 2 channels, 48000 Hz, 16-bit. The consequence worth having: this crate has no XMA decoder, and data_bytes / PsuedoBytesPerSec is the only route to a duration. Checked against durations decoded independently by the port: ADV presentation 1 137.34 s declared 137.324 s decoded +0.012 percent ADV presentation 2 137.33 s declared 137.324 s decoded +0.004 percent S00A presentation 1 93.71 s declared 93.694 s decoded +0.017 percent So the corpus can now get XMA1 durations off the disc without a decoder, which is a capability I had written down as absent. It is a declared rate rather than a measurement of the samples, and the CLI labels it as such. Regression test pins the real on-disc header bytes and asserts the duration against the independently decoded 137.324 s. 115 lib tests and 3 media disc tests pass.

re: the paint-order tie-break costs the port zero pixels, not 24 pairs
The census bounded WHERE a wrong tie-break could show and said outright that nobody had measured how many of those pairs change a pixel. Measured. `compose_with_order` renders a bundle in a caller-supplied order; the new example renders each screen twice, once derived and once with one tied pair swapped, and diffs. Same-key elements are contiguous under a stable sort on (key, i), so a swap paints nothing else in between. Controlled per entry: swapping an OVERLAPPING pair with DIFFERENT keys moves 36 305 to 771 479 px (max delta 254). Where no such pair is drawn the output says so rather than reporting an uninterpretable zero. * EXTRAS (entries 6/9) and the main menu (5/8): 0 px. The tied ptframe pairs ink ~3 600 px each and share NONE of them -- the 102x132 rect overlap was an artefact of approximating an element as pivot x 2. Blend-independent. * Across all 31 drawable overlapping tied pairs in GP_TITLE, the largest change any of them makes to any channel is 3/255. * Withdrawn: "a wrong tie-break can be wrong by a whole layer". That rested on ptlogo_back2eff5 geometrically containing two other glows. Rendered, the swap moves 6 390 px by max delta 2. Containment is not occlusion when the container is a near-transparent glow, and nobody had rendered it before asserting it. Reach: this measures our compositor's sensitivity to order, not the game's. The zero-shared-ink results hold under any per-pixel blend; the delta<=3 figures assume ours. 13 disc-gated ui_paint_order_disc tests and 114 lib tests pass unchanged.

formats: a keyframe's time comes before its pose, and none of them was missing
The placement region is `frames` records of `{u32 time; 36-byte pose}` after an
8-byte header, so the time word PRECEDES the pose it belongs to. Our parser's
40-byte window opened at the pose, four bytes into the record, and then read the
word at its `+36` as that pose's time -- which is the NEXT pose's. Every pose
field was right; only the time association slipped by one.
Two things the corpus has carried for weeks are that off-by-one and nothing
else: "a group's data stops 4 bytes short of its final block's time slot", and
"the last keyframe carries no time". The group is not short (8 + frames*40 is
exact) and no time is missing -- the first pose's time is the lead-in word at
`header + 8` that `parse_placements` skipped without asking what it was.
Disc-wide, 33 archives, 13 991 groups, each test with a control:
A lead-in prepended to the shifted times is non-decreasing 13991/13991
B a non-zero lead-in is strictly below the next time 5058/5058
control (another group's lead-in, same bundle) 70.9%
C multi-segment alpha ramp at a constant rate, corrected 857/1540
the same, under the old reading 0/1042
C is the one that cannot be argued with: interpolation between keyframes is
linear, and under the old reading not one multi-keyframe ramp on the disc comes
out at a constant rate.
Adoption is free on every static composite, which is what the corpus previously
declined it over. `SYLPHEED_KF_TIME_SHIFT=1` moved GP_TITLE build 7 by 13.1% of
its pixels because it left pose 0 untimed; with the lead-in restored, all 12
GP_TITLE builds render byte-identically, and across 217 builds in six archives
only two elements pick a different rest pose -- both times between two poses
that are equally invisible.
`SYLPHEED_KF_TIME_SHIFT` is gone; `SYLPHEED_KF_TIME_LEGACY=1` restores the old
reading for A/B work.
ui_header_time_disc needed one line: 546 bundles whose every group is a single
static pose now report max_time = 0 where they previously reported no time at
all. Excluding them, the result it guards strengthened -- the bound holds over
2 859 bundles instead of 2 313, still with zero violations.
Not established: the executable's own parser. Reach is written down.

formats: a music bank's third sub-wave was its own header
The port hit `sound_bank_riffs("BGM_103.slb")` returning three against a census
that says two, and refused to guess which to drop. It was our reader.
`to_xma_riffs`'s hybrid branch derives a leading packet stream's start as
`first_riff % XMA1_PACKET`. That is right only when the bank header is smaller
than one 2048-byte packet -- true of the voice banks the branch was written for
(1392/1468/1600/1728), false of a music bank, whose header is exactly five
packets. The modulus returned 0 and the whole 10 240-byte header was emitted as
sub-wave 0.
The header states its own length, so the guard needs no threshold: BE u32 0x800
at +0x18 with the bank id repeated at +0x00 and +0x20, header length in blocks at
+0x24. Disc-wide over sound.pak's 9 519 entries, 28 match at offset 0 -- every
music bank, ids 1001-1023 and 1101-1105 -- and on 28/28 the declared header ends
EXACTLY at the first RIFF. Zero have a gap, so a header and a leading packet
stream never coexist here; zero false positives among the other 9 491.
Controlled rather than argued: decoding the emitted region through the same
chain, on the same bank, in the same run gives 0.009 s of PCM where the bank's
real wave 0 gives 87.744 s against a declared 87.75. The region is also 99.1%
zero bytes. And the oracle had already said two -- the XMA probe at the main menu
saw exactly two streams, at BGM_103's two declared wave sizes.
BGM_106-109 are deliberately NOT in the 28: their entries start mid-bank, so they
have no header at offset 0 and their leading region is real audio. The
VOICE_D_453 recovery is untouched and its tests still pass, 10/10 green.

re(ui): the focus ring SPINS, the game draws it, and the leaf owns the f record
Three things, all from parsing ptbtn0Nf.rat as a build. 1. THE RING SPINS. Its two keyframes differ in exactly one field: rotation_deg ramps 0 -> 360 with position, scale, alpha and tint all constant. A spin in place, the same shape as the GP_BUNK example already recorded. 2. THE ORACLE CONFIRMS THE GAME RENDERS IT. In the OPTIONS-focused capture the ring's bright head sits in a completely different angular position from the sprite's own -- caught mid-spin. This is a SECOND independent confirmation that rotation_deg is drawn, now on a different screen and a different element from the ptloop sweeps, and it raises rotation's priority: it is not a title-only concern that sits off-screen at rest, it is the main menu's focus marker. NO ANGLE IS QUOTED. A brightest-region centroid says ~250 deg, but the control refuses that precision -- rotating the sprite by a known 30/90/180/270 and re-measuring gives errors up to 19.8 deg. What survives the error bar is that a <=20 deg error cannot manufacture a ~250 deg displacement. 3. WHICH PLACEMENT WINS -- correcting this page's own earlier caveat, which said to use the leaf only for elements the parent does not declare. Right for a BASE record, wrong for an f record: the parent declares NO element for ptbtn0Nf.rat at all (zero of build 5's 16), so the f record's placement comes from its leaf for BOTH elements, label included. The label's (-7,-7) is load-bearing -- the f sprite is 13px larger per axis and -7 keeps them concentric (535+96/2 = 583 vs 542+83/2 = 583.5). Corroborated against the oracle: the focused-minus-unfocused region is x 505..703, and the leaf predicts a right edge near 707 where the parent reading predicts 714. Also exposes UiBuild::records (name -> (offset, size) of a nested .rat leaf). Nested records were parsed into a PRIVATE map, so a consumer holding a UiBuild could not locate a leaf's bytes at all -- which is exactly what blocked the port from reaching the ring. |

media: expose se_wave_riff -- the menu's SE cues, assembled where the format lives
The port is forbidden from reimplementing media assembly and Static.slb is exactly that case: no RIFF, no seek chunk, no XACT container, just a packed run of whole 2048-byte XMA1 packets, so a wave is defined only by (offset, packet count) and the header has to be synthesized. That step now happens once, in the crate that owns the format, instead of in each consumer. `slb::xma1_wave_riff` wraps raw packets; `media::se_wave_riff` looks the bank up and reads just the packets asked for. Both reuse the existing synth_xma1_fmt / build_riff, which are already byte-identical to what tools/re-capture/ slb_extract_wave.py writes -- so this is exposure, not a second implementation. It reads a TARGETED range rather than the whole bank, and that is load-bearing: Static.slb is the ONE entry of sound.pak's 9 519 whose declared extent runs past the end of the extracted segments -- by exactly 616 768 B -- so reading it whole fails outright on this extraction. Every cue we need is in the first few hundred KB. Recorded rather than worked around silently. Verified as an artifact, not a compile: all three cues decode through ffmpeg to mono 48 kHz PCM at 0.533 / 0.344 / 1.016 s, non-silent (rms 2085 / 2985 / 4327, peaks 29813 / 16973 / 32767). The refusal path is exercised in the same run -- an impossible packet count is rejected rather than returning a short stream, because a truncated XMA decodes to plausible-sounding garbage. Also adds docs/re/captures/ORACLE-CAPTURES.md: an index of the nine canary framebuffer captures already in this repo, and a plain statement that THEY are the reference and `screen render` is not. |

re(ui): the 60 nameless RATC children are frames, not children -- .tan decoded
Closes the reach caveat the `opt ` name fix left behind: 60 of 18 002 RATC children carry no `opt ` block, and it was not established whether they lack one or sit past our 128-byte window. Neither. They are not children. `examples/ratc_optless_children.rs` re-runs `ratc::parse`'s own guards over the disc and reports which one fired: all 60 are "tag beyond the window", none is rejected by length, gap or charset, none is child #0, and all 60 live in six bundles of one archive. Within a bundle the distances back to the nearest tag are an exact arithmetic progression, step 60 600 -- ten different records finding the SAME tag, because there is only one. Reading a bundle directly: children 1..10 are equal-size T8aD blocks under a single `opt ` name, `pb_f15_eg_anm.tan`. `.tan` is a FRAME SEQUENCE. One block declares the resource; its payload is a run of T8aD frames. Disc-wide, over all 18 718 `opt ` names in all 33 paks: a RATC bundle names exactly six kinds of resource -- `.t32` 14 756, `.rat` 3 311, `.prm` 367, `.tbm` 224, `.sbo` 54, `.tan` 6. Six `.tan`, ten frames each = 60, the entire population with nothing left over. The negative is closed, not narrowed. Consequence recorded but deliberately not fixed: `ratc::parse` over-reports there, listing a `.tan`'s frames as anonymous children. Nothing in the menu milestone reads a `.tan` -- it occurs only in GP_READY_ROOM, which S1 ruled out -- so no screen the port draws changes. Also a METHOD entry for this container OOM-killing `slb_leading_segment_disc` under default test parallelism (SIGKILL, no assertion; 8/8 pass with --test-threads=1). |

re(ui): a RATC child's name is stated, not inferred -- and it was hiding every menu background
`ratc::parse` named each child by scanning backwards for the last printable run of bytes before its magic. The format states the name explicitly instead, in an `opt ` block: `"opt " | BE32 len | name | NUL | 3 bytes | magic` -- the same block `ui_layout::opt_link` already read for a button's focus link. The scan agrees with it 17 918 times out of 17 942 and is wrong 24 times, every one the same failure: the 3 trailing payload bytes are themselves printable and beat the real name. For `pteff05.t32` those bytes are `38 41 58` = `8AX`, so the full-resolution background of all five menu screens registered under a name no element declares, resolved to no sprite, and `compose` dropped it through an early `continue` that -- unlike the two arms above it -- records nothing. The screen lost its background and `screen render` still reported "all resolved". `8AX` was never a name. Docs that treated it as one are corrected here. Disc-wide, and the control is the 17 918 the scan already got right: the `opt ` reading reproduces every one of them. Effect on the five screens is the signature of the same art at twice the resolution -- mean brightness unmoved, high-frequency detail x1.15..x1.30 -- which is what the separately-measured `ui-8ax-fullres-background` result said the game draws. Also closes a long-standing dangling reference: `pmbase.t32`, recorded as "on the disc nowhere", is the `GP_STAGE_CLEAR` child the scan called `8AX`. RATC sibling references now resolve 10 148 of 10 148. Verified: 114/114 sylpheed-formats unit tests (including two new ones pinning the `8AX` case byte for byte and the no-block fallback), and every disc-gated integration suite in sylpheed-formats/sylpheed-cli. |

re(ui): why rest_plateau is right -- and last is right only for a transient
The shifted keyframe-time reading looked like it implied something simple: the final pose is reached at a definite time and nothing follows, so rest should just be the last keyframe and the plateau heuristic could go. Tested by applying it to EVERY element: title +0.9500 -> +0.6819 -0.2681 main menu +0.9460 -> +0.6416 -0.3044 EXTRAS +0.9440 -> +0.5745 -0.3695 publisher splash +0.9600 -> blank (zero variance, corr undefined) developer splash +0.9643 -> blank Refuted, and the failure supplies the model. A group is entry -> hold -> exit, and the exit is the screen's DISMISSAL. While a screen is displayed it has not reached its last keyframe; it is sitting at the hold. So rest_plateau is the correct primary rule, and the last keyframe is the post-exit state -- correct only once the screen is gone, which is why applying it everywhere blanks the splashes. This does not contradict the shifted reading. That reading says when each pose is reached; it says nothing about the group being played to completion while the screen is still up. The step between them was mine. And it explains why last wins for the two plateau-less elements: an element with no hold is a transient, it flashes and is over, and at any settled moment it is gone -- which is its last keyframe. The draw capture says the same independently: on the developer splash the _eff glows draw on frames 94-115 and the logos on 116-211, so the glows are already finished when the logos are up. Three independent observables -- animation timing, static composites, and the per-frame draw log -- now agree on one rule: plateau where there is one, last keyframe where there is not. METHOD: a blank render is a NaN correlation, not a low score, and that NaN was the strongest form of the result; and when a model predicts something the measurement refuses, suspect the step you supplied between them. |

re(ui): the rest fallback fires on 2 elements, and "last keyframe" wins there
Scored candidate rest-pose rules by rendering and correlating instead of
arguing, and both results correct something I had published.
First, the exposure. The guessing fallback is reached only by an element
that is plateau-less AND multi-keyframe -- a single-keyframe element
short-circuits at `match len { 1 => first }`. Per screen:
title (4) 24 elements 2 plateau-less 0 reach the fallback
main menu (5) 16 5 0
EXTRAS (6) 18 5 0
publisher splash (10) 3 2 1
developer splash (11) 7 2 1
So on the three screens the port cares most about, rest() never guesses.
That is why three different rules render builds 4/5/6 to identical
correlations -- the code is unreachable there, which I nearly read as
"the choice does not matter".
Second, where it does fire, the last keyframe is markedly better:
publisher splash dwell +0.9600 last +0.9982 maxalpha +0.9600
developer splash dwell +0.9643 last +0.9758 maxalpha +0.9643
That refutes my own earlier refutation. I had killed the last-keyframe
rule by arguing it makes palogo_anima_eff invisible while its two
siblings stay lit, which looked like an artefact. The capture says
otherwise: making it invisible is what improves the match. The sibling
symmetry was my expectation, not evidence.
Caveat kept in front: both captures are single frames of a transient
animation, so this fixes which pose matches THOSE frames, not which is
canonically at rest. Default unchanged -- better on both screens where it
fires and identical on the other three, but it would move 2 305 elements
disc-wide on two measurements. Reachable via SYLPHEED_REST_RULE=last.
Also confirmed: all 195 zero-scale rest poses are inside the corrected
2 305 ambiguous population; none is a single-keyframe element.
METHOD: score a rule where it can differ, or you measure nothing; and an
argument from symmetry is a prediction, not a refutation.

re(ui): measure the paint-order hedge -- exact on 4 of 5, and bound the rest
`compose` claimed the derived paint order "reproduces both measured orders up to ties". That sentence was never measured and was stale by one: there are three measured orders, not two. examples/paint_order_audit.rs checks it. main menu (entries 5, 8) derived == measured 0 inverted pairs developer splash (11, 14) derived == measured 0 inverted pairs title (entry 4) DIFFERS 8, all same-key ties So the claim holds and the exception is entirely ties -- but two of those ties are total occlusions, not near-misses. The tied family is the five ptlogo_back2eff glows (key 32899); back2eff5 is 1133x280 and FULLY CONTAINS back2eff3 (82,824 px^2 = 100% of the smaller) and back2eff4 (152,047 px^2 = 100%). Derived paints it on top of two glows it entirely covers; the game paints it underneath. A tie-break by declaration index can therefore be wrong by a whole layer. The title itself is unaffected -- it has a measured order. The port's actual exposure, per screen: title, main menu and developer splash all use MEASURED orders; the publisher splash is derived but has ZERO ties, so it is fully determined; EXTRAS is derived with 15 tied pairs of which only 2 OVERLAP. Two element pairs on one screen is the whole risk, and that is what HANDOFF now says -- not the raw 15, which would have overstated it 7x. Reach stated: this compares the derived order against orders measured from the game, not an independent derivation, so where no measured order exists only the tie exposure can be checked. Overlap uses pivot*2 as the element size at its resting placement. Stale comment in compose corrected. METHOD: a hedge in a code comment is an unmeasured claim; and count the cases that can bite, not the ones that match the pattern. |

re(ui): scale 0 means collapsed, not "unset" -- stop drawing it full size
blit() and fill_quad() both opened with
let sx_pct = if kf.scale_x == 0 { 100 } else { kf.scale_x };
so an element whose pose is collapsed to nothing rendered at FULL SIZE.
I first described this as "a 1-pixel sliver", reading the .max(1) in the
size arithmetic two lines below -- the guard above it meant .max(1) never
saw a zero. Read the whole function, not the lines you went looking for.
Control run before the change: if 0 meant "unset", something on the disc
would use it throughout. Nothing does.
elements with a keyframe group 15 493
at least one keyframe at scale 0 2 166
EVERY keyframe at scale 0 0
zero is a transient the element grows out of 1 762
ptlogo_eff3.t32 runs 0% -> 200%. An "unset" marker no element ever uses
throughout is not a marker.
Both functions now return without drawing when either scale is 0.
Reach: 24 of 24 renders byte-identical across GP_TITLE (all 16 builds),
GP_PAUSE_MENU and GP_OPTIONS -- additive on every screen the port needs.
195 elements have a guessed rest pose at scale 0 and 126 of those have a
non-zero alpha, so the old code painted them; all 126 are in
GP_READY_ROOM.pak, which S1 already declared a no-go. They are
tactical-map sprites at sx=0/sy=100, mid-horizontal-wipe, that the
coercion drew full-width.
So: a real correctness fix with no visible effect on the menu port.
Suite green, 122 passed / 0 failed across 3 suites at commit time.

re(ui): the keyframe-time shift is favoured 26x by timing, rejected by a render
Follow-up on last iteration's unadopted candidate (+36 holds the NEXT pose's time, not its own). Two new results, pointing opposite ways, and both are reported. FOR, and calibration-free: the observed full-alpha hold : fade-out ratio on palogo_gamearts is 83 : 13 frames = 6.38. The shifted reading predicts 8.00. The current reading predicts 0.25 -- off by 26x. With the glow's 2 units/frame fixed and nothing else free, the current reading says the logo holds full alpha for 2.0 frames; the capture holds it for 83. This is no longer the shape argument the candidate rested on. Also for: rest()'s plain max-dwell fallback picks a=0 -- a transparent pose, for a publisher logo -- under the current reading, and the visible a=255 hold under the shift. Only the rest_plateau special case rescues the render today, and that is the case the port agent reported a bug in. AGAINST: rendering every build of six UI paks under both readings, 10 of 11 compared are byte-identical and one changes -- GP_TITLE build 7, the Japanese twin of build 4, by 13.1% of pixels. Build 4, the one verified against a live capture, is unchanged either way, so the single build the shift moves is the one with no capture to adjudicate it. The proxy goes against the shift: language twins are the same artwork, and build 7 reads 70.94 mean luminance as decoded against build 4's 71.41, but 76.32 shifted. Correlation does not separate them (0.6206 vs 0.6201). These constrain different things -- timing versus pose selection -- and rest() is a heuristic layered on the times, so moving the times moves its tie-breaks. Adopting the shift means revisiting that heuristic in the same change, with no build-7 capture to verify against. Default UNCHANGED. Experiment reachable via SYLPHEED_KF_TIME_SHIFT=1. Shifted-mode suite: 122 passed, 0 failed across 3 suites at commit time. |

re(ui): decode keyframe +12 as screen-plane rotation in degrees
The rotated quads on the title screen come from the keyframe block after all. The earlier negative -- "every GP_TITLE build 4 element has all three angle words at zero" -- read the right bytes over too small a region: it walked the top-level declaration table, and the rotated elements are the nested leaf records ptloop01.rat / ptloop02.rat. Confirmed against the framebuffer rather than against our own renderer. The two records declare +12 = 30 and -45; the GPU capture submits their quads at +30.26 and -45.28 degrees -- magnitude and sign, two different values. Corroborated by shape in GP_BUNK 117ca14f, where +12 ramps 0 -> 360 with position, scale and alpha constant: a spin in place. Identifying which draw it was needed edge lengths, not bounding boxes: 400x1076 and 400x1444 against pteff03/pteff03a 399x180 at the elements' two different declared scales, 600% (1080) and 800% (1440). The same test names three known-positives in the capture (ptlogo1, ptcopyright, ptbtn00), so it passes its own control. Keyframe gains rotation_deg plus unknown_4/unknown_8, carried rather than dropped. NOT rendered -- ui_layout::blit is axis-aligned only, so the reference renderer and the port will both draw these upright until a rotating blit exists. The census tool ships with the trap that broke its first version: nested RATC blobs are not 4-byte aligned, so an aligned scan found 0/3 of its own control blocks and missed 16 341 blocks. Disc-wide +12 is non-zero in 14.50 % of 83 862 blocks. sylpheed-formats tests, SYLPHEED_DISC set: 131 passed, 0 failed across the 6 suites finished at commit time; the run had not yet completed. |

re: three angle fields found in the keyframe -- and they are not the
title's rotation Looking for where the rotated quads come from, the obvious candidates were the three keyframe words at +4, +8 and +12 that ui_layout.rs documents as zero. They are not zero. Across 72287 keyframe blocks disc-wide they are non-zero in 4.81, 4.56 and 15.82 percent of blocks, and read as signed values clustering on 180, -180, 90, -90, 120 and 22 -- degrees. Three of them, so plausibly rotation about three axes. I have marked that amber because it is the shape of the numbers and nothing more; no observed rotation has been tied to a value. The doc comment is corrected regardless: "0 on every frame seen" was an artefact of the sample. And they do not explain the screen I was chasing. Every element of GP_TITLE build 4 has all three at zero, element by element, while the game demonstrably submits rotated parallelograms there. So the title's rotation comes from outside the keyframe data and is still unidentified. One correction to my own last write-up, flagged rather than left: I stated that the skewed draw IS the swoosh. It is the only skewed geometry in the capture and the swoosh is the only diagonal element on the screen, so the inference is reasonable -- but I never confirmed it by matching the draw's texture or screen position to that element, and I should have said so the first time. |

re: additive blending refuted, the swoosh is not displaced, and the
residual is smaller than I said Testing the candidate I raised last iteration rather than carrying it. Blending bit-0x02 sprites additively moves every measure the wrong way -- whole-frame mean diff +0.55 to +1.04, swoosh-band mean +1.83 to +3.98, band edge-correlation 0.6971 down to 0.5578. So the bit is real and independent but does not select an additive blend. I reverted the experiment and kept the word as T8adImage::flags, documented and not acted on; the render is byte-identical to before. Second refutation: the swoosh is not displaced. Shifting the band over plus or minus 80 by 8 pixels peaks sharply at zero, 0.7342, falling to 0.22 at 24 px. So the pivot story is dead twice over -- inert at scale 100, and no displacement to explain anyway. And I have restated the residual, because earlier sections overstated it. The +16 to +34 band tiles I quoted were measured WITHOUT --primitives. With the dim drawn the band's average is nearly right at +1.83; what is wrong is its structure, tiles running -38.6 then +33.8 and cancelling. Six candidates eliminated now and none confirmed. One caveat I owe the port agent about the capture I gave them: it is at t=4.0s, roughly 174 keyframe units into a screen whose elements have keyframes out to t=600. I judged "settled" from mean luminance, which cannot see a thin sprite still moving. It is settled for the bulk of the screen and not proven settled for every element -- which is a live alternative explanation for a structural difference in exactly the band the sweeps cross. METHOD: cargo build passing does not mean cargo test compiles. Adding the field built the library in 1.48s and broke two test-only struct literals; cargo test failed with exit 101. |

re: rest() fixed -- a trailing keyframe run is the hold when it is
VISIBLE, not when its pose repeats The port agent's report was right about the defect and about which elements it hits, and its proposed condition does not survive the case the exclusion was written for. Their test -- the final untimed keyframe has the same pose as the last timed one -- is also true of pgptitle.rat, whose trailing run is two identical transparent frames. Adopting it would erase the word PAUSE again, which a committed capture disproves. What separates the two is alpha: an exit fades the element out so its last keyframe is transparent, while an element with no exit ends on the pose you can see. So rest_plateau now accepts a trailing run exactly when it is visible. Verified against a capture rather than against another renderer, which is the point their own report made: ptframe1's rest moves from (620,108) t=16 to (440,108) t=62; the changed pixels are 10082 in a bounding box of x 440-839, y 108-577, which is exactly the 400x470 at (440,108) they predicted; and correlation against main-menu-oracle.png over that region improves from 0.9596 to 0.9748. The PAUSE wordmark is unchanged across all three pause builds. This also closes a question ui-paint-order-key.md has carried for a while, that ptframe1 and ptframe2 rest at alpha 0 while the capture shows the menu frame plainly. One trap cost most of this iteration and goes in METHOD: CARGO_TARGET_DIR is redirected in this container, so ./target/debug/sylpheed-cli is hours stale and every render I made against it was old code. Byte-identical before and after reads as "no effect" when it actually means "you ran the old binary". The full disc-gated test suite was still executing when this was committed; the verification above is artifact-based. |

formats: move media assembly out of the viewer, where it could not be reused
The trickiest reading on the disc lived in the Bevy viewer: resolving a cutscene's voice to a continuous byte REGION of the sound stream, because the movie voices are one XMA stream chunked into VOICE_*.slb entries whose boundaries do not match the cues -- a cue routinely spans two chunks, so a .slb need not hold the track its name claims. That put the logic most likely to be re-derived incorrectly in the crate least likely to be reused. The Godot port's exporter needs the same answers, and there must be one implementation of them. New `sylpheed_formats::media` owns every case where the bytes of one playable thing are not one archive entry: segment-spanning reads, multi-sub-wave banks, and the voice-region resolution. Callers supply bytes through a `DiscSource` trait, so the viewer keeps its ISO/directory abstraction and a headless consumer gets `DirectorySource` for free. The seam is deliberate: this module returns XMA RIFFs, not PCM. Decoding means shelling out to FFmpeg, which is native-only and a policy decision for the consumer -- everything up to "here are the bytes that belong together" is disc knowledge, everything after it is a codec choice. The four moved functions were previously untested; `tests/media_disc.rs` now pins them, including the negative the corpus paid for -- an unbound movie must stay unvoiced rather than borrow a neighbour's clip, which was tried and played the WRONG recording. The algorithm is unchanged, moved verbatim (same window sizes, same fallbacks). The new disc tests pass; the broader audio suite was not re-run in this pass.

viewer: a Cutscenes browser -- the manifest was invisible plumbing
`movie_manifest` has been parsed since the movie-voice work and rendered nowhere: it resolved a voice bank and that was all. So the only way to find a cutscene was to hunt `.wmv` files in the ISO tree, where nothing tells you which mission a file belongs to, whether it has subtitles, or what is said in it. View ▸ Cutscenes lists all 104 manifest slots with mission/phase, kind, movie, subtitle track, voice token and telop, and -- the part that needed no new parsing, only a route -- resolves the captions to a readable TRANSCRIPT with a language selector. Subtitles were previously burned into the video during playback and reachable no other way. Three negatives are shown rather than smoothed over: * 5 manifest-bound movies have no `.wmv` (logo1-4 and an encoder test clip). They are marked and get no Play button instead of one that would fail. * 9 of 101 movies resolve no English transcript. * the `.prt` telop overlay is named by the manifest and we have no parser, so the reference is shown labelled "not decoded" rather than omitted. `cutscene_catalog_binds_movies_and_transcripts` pins all of it against the disc -- 104/101/99/99/22, the exact absent-movie list, 92 transcripts -- because a browser that quietly dropped these would look complete and be wrong. The counts independently reproduce docs/re/movie-subtitle-link.md. Play routes through the normal FileSelected path, so the existing video player handles it exactly as it would from the tree.

viewer: open the whole sound bank, not just the voice half
The library enumerator kept only names containing VOICE or \Briefing\, and read eng\sounds.tbl unconditionally. So the Explorer could reach 4382 of the 9519 banks in sound.pak: no music, no jingles, no sound effects, and no Japanese voice at all -- roughly half the disc's audio had no route to the UI. `slb::list_audio_entries` now returns every named bank with the category its path implies (Music / Jingles / Sound effects / Radio / Dialogue / Movie voice / Briefing). `list_voice_clips` is that, restricted to the spoken categories, so its existing test still guards the old behaviour. The 36 root banks carry no language component and appear whichever table is read; the window gets an English/Japanese switch that re-reads the other sounds.tbl, since the table name IS the selector. Two defects the decode found, both recorded in docs/re/structures/sound-pak-contents.md: * `Static.slb` -- the SFX bank -- declares 616768 bytes more than sound.p04 holds. Not our extraction: p04 matches the ISO's own directory record, and a sweep of every pak on the disc finds this one entry over-running and no other. It is the highest-offset entry, so its comp_size is an allocation size. A short read is now allowed for the tail entry ONLY; any other overrun stays an error, because clamping it would hide real damage behind a half-decoded asset. The bank went from unreadable to 514 s of audio. * the left-channel downmix was applied to everything. Right for voice (mono content however stored), wrong for music (a real stereo mix, half of it discarded). The caller now decides from the category. 35 of the 36 shared banks decode; JNGL_001 does not, and says so in the player instead of the panel silently closing. Its payload is not a whole number of XMA1 packets from any known data offset, so it is likely not a plain headerless stream -- written up rather than papered over.

slb: guard the wave-boundary identity with a test, and expose data_at
A wave runs to data_at + declared_size, and there is seek magic exactly there whose little-endian packet count at +12 times 2048 equals the declared size -- 7620/7620 disc-wide. That is the decoder-independent boundary and the thing that proves the declared sizes honest, so it should not be able to regress silently. The boundary routinely lies outside the entry's own comp_size window, so reading it needs the flat segment stream rather than the entry slice; PakArchive gains a small data_at(offset, len) accessor for that. Test walks a bounded slice to stay fast -- 792 banks in this run, all holding. 8 disc tests pass. |

slb: read Channels instead of assuming mono -- and retract the TCAF_608 conclusion
I read the seek chunk's packet count big-endian; it is little-endian at seek+12, with size == 8 + 4*count. And a seek sits immediately AFTER its own data, so an entry's first seek usually belongs to the PREVIOUS bank (implied start -25232 for D_452, -145988 for TCAF_608). I was comparing an entry's first seek against its first data -- different waves by construction, which is why no reading lined up. With that fixed, the declared sizes are honest: every RIFF-bearing entry on the disc has seek magic at exactly data_at + declared_size with count*2048 == declared. 7620/7620, zero failures. VOICE_TCAF_608 is not truncated. Its Channels is 2 and I decoded it as mono; read as stereo it gives 6520176 bytes = 33.96 s, agreeing with both length signals in the bank (33.88 s from cumulative samples, 33.97 s from PsuedoBytesPerSec). 170 of 8021 banks (2.12%) are stereo -- exactly the rate of my 1-in-60 outlier. This is the mono/stereo trap already documented on this very page, met from the other direction: I had written 'at two channels every bank yields one frame' and then spent several passes blaming missing data for a one-frame decode. Code fix: to_xma_riffs built the leading segment with a hard-wired mono fmt. It now reads Channels from the bank's first RIFF. 7 disc tests pass. |

slb: the seek chunk gives the data offset structurally, and breaks the 28 ties
The ties needed a different signal, not a longer scan. Banks carry one: a seek chunk sitting on a packet boundary, so seek_pos % 2048 IS the data offset. On the 6033 labelled banks with a seek before their first RIFF, 6031 agree (99.97%) -- better than the packet scan and structural rather than statistical, so scan_data_offset now tries it first. On the scan's 28 ties it resolves 26 correctly and 0 wrongly (2 have no usable seek). Combined rule scores 7354/7358 = 99.95%, up from 99.62%. 762 of the 1495 RIFF-less banks carry a seek, so the signal exists where it is needed. Also ruled out, since a wrong offset was this page's whole subject: the header is not audio being discarded. Adding 0 to the candidate set, it wins 6 of 7358. 7 disc tests pass. |

slb: the declared data size is an upper bound, not an exact one
Two comments claimed it is 'honest per sub-wave'. Measured: 5296 of 7586 banks declare more than the entry holds and none declares exactly what it holds, so the existing .min(slb.len()) clamp is load-bearing rather than defensive. Comment-only change; 7 disc tests still pass. |

slb: the headerless path was decoding stereo at a fixed offset; both are wrong
1495 banks carry no RIFF and take a separate path that hardcoded both the offset and stereo. Across a random 48-bank sample there was NOT ONE where the old stereo-at-1392 pair beat the best mono offset; median gain 184x, individual banks going from 0-4816 decoded bytes to 180000-380000. Stereo shows the same stop-after-one-frame signature already recorded for the leading segment. With no RIFF the offset cannot be derived, so scan_data_offset picks among the four disc offsets by XMA1 packet-header plausibility. Validated on the LABELLED set -- all 7358 banks that do have a RIFF, where the answer is forced: 7330 correct (99.62%), and all 28 misses are ties on the top score, never a wrong unique winner. Ties fall back to 1392. The winning offsets also reproduce, by directory, the distribution measured independently from the RIFF-bearing banks. jpn\etc splits 1468/1600, so path alone is not sufficient -- which is why this is a scan and not a lookup table. 7 disc tests pass (build-reborn test -p sylpheed-formats --test slb_leading_segment_disc, SYLPHEED_DISC wired up). |

slb: derive the leading-stream data offset instead of assuming 1392
HEADERLESS_DATA_OFFSET is the value the offset takes in <lang>\etc\, not a property of the format. The leading stream is a whole number of 2048-byte XMA1 packets ending at the first RIFF, so its start is first_riff % XMA1_PACKET. Disc-wide that takes four values -- 1392, 1468, 1600, 1728 -- varying by language and subdirectory. Verified by decoding, not by arithmetic: on a random 140-bank sample with a non-empty leading region, the derived offset yields more audio in 85, identical in 54 (the eng\etc controls, where it must and does reproduce the old behaviour) and less in 1. Median gain among the improved is 70x -- eng\Voice\VOICE_TCAF_592 goes 1506 -> 97152 bytes, jpn 2910 -> 127178. This withdraws my own claim from earlier today that the Japanese banks were a different undecoded layout. They are the same format with a different offset; I had treated a constant derived from one subdirectory as a property of the format. The same error was hiding the identical defect in 1873 eng\Voice banks. |

re: wire the IXUD record table into the crate — captions go 537 to 8800 of 8800
ixud.rs now has an IdxdObject-shaped reader, IxudObject, and build_caption_text reads captions as FIELDS instead of pairing them with whatever token follows in the pool. build_demo_text token adjacency 134 ids 537 lines build_caption_text token adjacency 3721 8074 build_caption_text record fields 4085 8800 = all of them Verified over the whole disc by tests/ixud_records_disc.rs: 1104/1104 objects parse, 1476/1476 records and 628165/628165 named fields reproduce their ixud_hash, 48 positional, zero failures. The header word at 0x08 is record 0's hash, asserted per object -- there is no schema field, exactly as for IDXD. The module doc described a 12-byte record directory and a "schema/type hash"; both were wrong and are corrected. I also have to correct my own number from the previous commit. "1.3% of the game's text" counted OCCURRENCES: each family lives in 24-45 IXUD blocks and the same key repeats across them. Distinct text-bearing MSG_* keys number 8800, not 44579, and every one has the <id>_<page>_<line> shape. So the real coverage was 537/8800 = 6.1%, and I overstated the gap about fivefold. Direction right, magnitude wrong. The DEMO control is the sharpest evidence for the change: token adjacency finds 537 lines there, the field reader 541. It was dropping lines even in the one family it was written for -- which is why the test now asserts "must not lose lines" rather than "must be identical". Same lesson twice in one session: pool adjacency is a consequence of how records are written, not a rule of the format.

re: read all eight caption families — 15x more text, and the same lesson twice
build_caption_text generalises the key parser from MSG_DEMO_* to all eight
families. The shapes are uniform and each family is 100% consistent with its
own: seven use MSG_<FAM>_<id>_<page>_<line>, and VOICE alone inserts a family
letter before the id.
ids lines
build_demo_text 134 537
build_caption_text 3721 8074
The DEMO family comes out identical through both readers -- 537 lines either
way -- which is the control that generalising changed nothing that already
worked. Pinned by tests/caption_families_disc.rs, along with VOICE ids keeping
their family letter.
But this does NOT close the gap, and the write-up says so: 8074 against the
44579 text-bearing fields the record-level scan counts is about 18%.
The reason is the same lesson this session already learned once.
build_caption_text pairs a value with the key that happens to follow it in the
raw UTF-16 token stream -- the adjacency heuristic that was wrong for IDXD and
is wrong here for the same reason. ixud.rs has no record/field reader at all.
The IXUD record table IS decoded and verified disc-wide (1104/1104 objects,
628165/628165 fields reproducing their key) and was simply never wired into
the crate.
Next step recorded: give ixud.rs an IdxdObject-shaped reader and read captions
as fields rather than adjacent tokens. The decode exists; only the plumbing is
missing.

re: rebuild game_data on the IDXD record table — 966 misses and 596 flattened reads
Measured first, over GP_MAIN_GAME_E.pak, comparing every named-field read the
six struct loaders performed against the record table: 4435 reads, 2872 agreed,
**966 returned None for a field that has a value**, **596 flattened a field that
several records carry**, 1 was wrong (a weapon whose TargetType is the empty
string read back as the neighbouring token "Skip"). The prior report of
4453/2887/974/591/1 is the same picture; the small differences are definitional
(I count a read as flattened only when the records disagree).
Every read now goes through IdxdObject::record, and the types say where a value
comes from:
* Weapon = the `Weapon` record (launcher) + the `Shell` record (projectile).
Both carry an ID and a Name and — with `ShellWake` — an `Interval`, which the
flat reader merged; they are separate fields now. Power/Velocity/ranges/
LifeTime are Shell fields, which is why 427 weapon reads used to miss.
* CraftUnit/Vessel = `Generic` (hull) + `Maneuver` (flight model) +
`StructureCount` (counts) + `Shield`, plus a new `hardpoints: Vec<Hardpoint>`
— one entry per Turret_/Bridge_/Thruster_/Hatch_/ShieldGenerator_ record, each
with its own HP. A flat HP could only ever be one of them.
* PlayerConfig = `Player`, plus `phases: Vec<PlayerPhase>` (SpaceSize/SupplyRange
are per Phase_N) and `score: ByDifficulty<ScoreRules>` (MainMissionBonus is per
Score_<difficulty>; the flat answer was the Easy one).
* Character faces come from the `Faces` record's field names (identical output to
the old token scrape, 0 of 68 objects differ — now by construction).
* Stage = `StageResource` + `phases: Vec<StagePhase>`, and the packages it names.
* The `fields: BTreeMap` on every struct became `records: RecordSet`, which keeps
the record boundary; `RecordSet::everywhere(field)` answers "which record".
The token-scraping loaders move too, and this is where the old reader was worst:
* Arsenal: options are the positional fields of the STANDARD_<slot> records. The
scrape returned 16 nose options of which 8 were field keys and pilot names, and
47 for arm3 of which 38 were junk, while missing Mine_B2A and No_Equipment.
Now 8/12/9/9, all real weapons.
* Squadron: one record per squadron, members are Count*4 positional slots
(unit, message set, n, pilot) — 1160 squadrons with ids and 2295 member tuples,
against 28 idless squadrons and 47 members before. Agrees exactly with the
independent Python decode in docs/re/structures/unit-group-table.md.
* DemoMessage: 11775 lines against 10263, every one with a speaker, a portrait,
a delivery mode and a voice token, from fixed positional slots.
* PilotRoster: assignments are the records the `UNITS` record names, so each one
now carries its unit id, its loadout and the player marker.
* UnitRoster: the roster is the field *names* of the single `EnumUnit` record.
* load_weapons selects on the records (Weapon + Shell) rather than on token[0],
whose first byte is often a stray pool byte ("#Weapon", "%Weapon"). Same 131
objects, no heuristic. GP_HANGAR_ARSENAL.pak holds none of them — the module
doc's claim that player weapons live there was wrong.
schema:: constants keep their names and values but are documented for what they
are: record 0's name hash (PLAYER = Difficulty_Easy, UNIT = Maneuver, VESSEL =
Bridge_000, MESSAGE = Message_000), not a schema id.
Two things the migration exposes and does not fix, flagged in the docs instead:
load_units' bucket is 43 Type=Craft + 46 Type=Vessel objects (new `unit_type`
field lets a caller separate them), and StructureCount.TurretCount is not the
number of Turret_* records (the player's craft says 4 and has 63).

re: recover the .slb leading segment — mono, and scoped by measurement
to_xma_riffs now emits the leading headerless segment when it sits at a whole number of XMA1 packets and carries a non-zero byte. VOICE_D_453 goes from a 0.14 s trailing fragment to a 45116-byte leading sub-wave that dominates it. I withdrew this exact change earlier for two reasons. Both are now answered rather than argued away: * "It recovers no audio" -- it used the STEREO format. At two channels every bank yields exactly 1792 bytes, one frame, whatever its size. Mono yields up to 113x more. * "It matches 1524 of 8021 RIFF-bearing entries" -- the byte-level reach is still 1524, but the audible reach is not. Across the 84 movie-bound banks the segment adds >1 s to exactly 7, the hokyu_*_H tankers on D_453/D_454 -- precisely the broken ones -- and <=0.25 s to 66 of the rest. The largest non-resupply addition is S04A at +0.66 s on a 256 s movie. The safety oracle is recorded with its limits: 8 of the 84 banks ALREADY exceed their movie's duration before the change, by hundredths of a second, so it cannot resolve differences at that scale. It establishes scoping, not correctness. Callers clamp to the movie length regardless. VOICE_D_451's all-zero leading region is skipped by the non-zero guard, so the rule cannot prepend silence to a bank that does not need it. Pinned, as is the packet arithmetic (n = 8, 1, 7, 22, 29) which has no tunable. slb_disc, movie_subtitle_disc and movie_manifest_disc all still pass. NOT verified by ear -- that needs a human.

re: the .slb leading region is 1392+n*2048 — and my fix for it is withdrawn
The structure is exact. In all five resupply banks the first RIFF sits at HEADERLESS_DATA_OFFSET + n*2048, where 1392 is a constant this crate already had and 2048 is the XMA1 packet size: n = 8, 1, 7, 22, 29. No free parameter to tune, and the raw bytes agree -- high entropy from offset 0, then a zero run immediately before the RIFF. VOICE_D_451 is the control, its single packet being all zeros. So I made the obvious fix, emitting that region as a sub-wave, and then withdrew it on two measurements: * It does not recover audio. Coverage went 5.4% -> 89.9% for VOICE_D_453, but the emitted stream decodes through FFmpeg to 1792 PCM bytes -- silence -- while the RIFF sub-waves from the same banks decode to 150-270 KB. Byte coverage was the wrong success metric and it looked like progress. * It is not narrow. The rule matches 1524 of the 8021 RIFF-bearing entries in sound.pak, including RT* movie banks that decode correctly today. Landing it would have risked a wide regression in order to not-fix five banks. to_xma_riffs is back to its previous behaviour, verified by re-measuring: coverage is 5.4% / 9.7% again. The refuted attempt is recorded in the code beside the branch it would have changed, so the next person does not re-derive the arithmetic and re-make the change. XMA1_PACKET is kept as a named constant because the blast-radius scan uses it. Artifacts: examples/voice_bank_shape.rs (structure), voice_bank_dump.rs (sub-waves for decoding), slb_hybrid_scan.rs (the 1524 count).

re: rebuild the movie manifest on the record table — the old counts measured pool strings
movie_manifest::parse now reads BASE_INFO's positional field keys (the game's own cutscene ids, stage*100 + slot) and follows each to its record, instead of scraping the string pool. The pool stores each distinct string once, so a REPEAT reference produced no token and read as "no binding". That single cause explains every wrong cell: 13 later references to VOICE_D_450..454, two to SUBTITLE_hokyu_LS_s11A.tbl, and MS01A's share of pwterop_s01a.prt. All 18 hokyu movies are bound, not five. Counts, verified independently by me against the disc before recording: 104 cutscene SLOTS binding 101 distinct MOVIES; 99 slots / 96 movies with a voice track, 99 / 96 with a subtitle, 22 / 22 with a telop. The docs' old 94 / 83 / 21 are exactly the counts of DISTINCT POOL STRINGS -- not wrong measurements, measurements of the wrong thing. Three denominators were being conflated; the new test pins all three. Two assertions in movie_manifest_disc.rs were false and are corrected: hokyu_DS_s13A binds VOICE_D_452 and resolves to eng\etc\VOICE_D_452.slb. The in-game verdict that rejected that value tested an INFERENCE from a shared demo id, on a decoder that discards 85-87% of banks in this class -- see voice-bank-leading-region.md, committed earlier today. The ~104 script ids are no longer open: they are literal positional keys, each naming its record, and all 104 resolve. The old "counts differ by three, positional pairing does not work" has a concrete cause -- three resupply movies are bound by TWO slots each. Also corrected: the naming convention has 3 subtitle exceptions (s24A/s27A borrow s11A's track) and 18 voice exceptions, not one and five. The legacy scraper is kept as a fallback for blobs with no record table, so the synthetic unit fixtures still exercise it. Artifacts: examples/movie_map_csv.rs regenerates the CSV, now slot-keyed (104 rows; the movie-keyed version silently dropped one slot of each duplicate). Disc tests green.

re: decode the IDXD/IXUD record table — and there is no schema hash
The binary region in front of the string pool was the parser's oldest open
note ("Not yet decoded"). It is a uniform 16-byte record array sorted by
name hash, a field count, a 12-byte field array sorted by key, a pool size,
and the pool. The trailing `pool_size == file_len - pool_base` identity makes
the layout self-checking, which is what caught the first wrong version.
Verified over the WHOLE disc with zero failures: 7750/7750 IDXD objects,
190782/190782 records reproducing their stored tag_hash, 1271462/1271462
named fields reproducing their key. IXUD is the same container with
ixud_hash, UTF-16BE and every offset in chars — 1104/1104 objects,
628165/628165 fields, checked with an independent parser.
Field names are stored on disc, so no preimage search is needed: a field's
middle word points at its own name. Only 504 fields disc-wide are hash-keyed
with no name; the other 1485073 nameless fields are positional, keyed by a
literal integer (line slots, movie ids).
Two long-held beliefs are WITHDRAWN:
* The word at 0x08 is not a schema hash. It is record 0's name_hash — the
format has no type field at all, and an object's kind is known only from
the caller that loads it. It survived as "schema" because tables of one
kind share their lowest-hashed record name. Caught by a test asserting
every movie id names a real record: 1005 -> STAGE10_PHASE01 failed because
tag_hash("STAGE10_PHASE01") IS 0x067025B9, that table's supposed schema id.
* The field's middle word is not an always-0xFFFFFFFF flags word. It is
0xFFFFFFFF for 54% of fields, enough to look constant in a small sample;
the tell was that it is constant per key ACROSS records, which a per-record
flag cannot be but a per-name pointer must.
`schema_hash` keeps its name rather than churn 33 call sites, with corrected
docs. The first sweep globbed dat/** and missed hidden/DefTables.pak (1425
objects); the test now walks the whole disc root.

re: locate both guest hash routines; IXUD solved; two corrections
Found the routines in the disassembly DB rather than guessing from data: sub_82447DF0 IDXD tag hash (lbz+extsb, modulus 0x00FFFFDF, magic 0x2101) sub_82447E70 IXUD tag hash (lhz, 64-bit, modulus 0xFFFFFF67 then 0x00FFFFDF) Both transcribed instruction-for-instruction into Python and Rust. IXUD SOLVED. It defeated every single-modulus search because it chains TWO exact moduli -- the loop reduces mod 2^32-153 in 64-bit arithmetic and only the result is folded mod 2^24-33. A polynomial mod M1 folded through M2 is not a polynomial mod anything, which is exactly why the gcd test returned 1. Verified independently: 86/86 record keys and 108,261/108,261 field tags in GP_MAIN_GAME_E.pak, and NoRecord -> 0x1c6d9c96. CORRECTION 1: tag_hash must SIGN-EXTEND each byte (extsb). My reconstruction used unsigned bytes and matched all 1.27M disc names -- every one is ASCII -- while disagreeing on ~90% of random inputs with a byte >= 0x80 (verified: 18096/20000). The disc could never have caught this; only the disassembly did. CORRECTION 2: name_hash's reduction is EXACT, not lossy. The module doc claimed the missing conditional subtract made it something other than %. rlwinm r6,r6, 9,23,31 is just hi>>23, and with RECIP = floor(2^55/M)+1 that is Granlund- Montgomery magic division -- 0 wrong at every quotient boundary across the full 32-bit domain.

re: recover the IDXD record-key / field-tag hash (8643/8643)
Closes the 4-byte record key. tag_hash is name_hash's shape -- byte-sum checksum in the top byte over a 24-bit modular polynomial -- with two different constants: modulus 0x00FFFFDF (2^24-33, prime) instead of 0x00FFF9D7, and no lowercasing, so tags are case-sensitive. name_hash explains 0 of 8643. Recovered from the tables rather than the executable: every inline field name is a known (name -> tag) pair, and comparing names differing in one character gives the per-position weights 1, 0x100, 0x10000, 0x21, 0x2100, ... -- a byte leaving bit 24 re-enters as 33, i.e. reduction mod 2^24-33. Holds where it is easy to get wrong (distance 8 and 9 carry correctly). A record's key is the tag of its own name: FormationSet rosters 362/362, UnitGroup rosters 281/281, S02 squadron names 111/111 -- so records can be addressed by name without reading the roster first. Implemented in Python (unitgroup.tag_hash) and Rust (sylpheed_formats::hash::tag_hash) with 3 new unit tests carrying disc-derived vectors; cargo test -p sylpheed-formats --lib hash is 8/8 green. Not settled: the guest routine is unlocated, so this uses exact modular arithmetic where the game may use a Barrett step without final fixup. |

including TWO tied groups (0xb102 x2 and 0xb210 x5) that both come out in
declaration order, and the unkeyed pfeff00.prm fade quad last.
The 13-element save/load frame differs in exactly the two open questions and no
new ones: two unkeyed pfbase.tbm backgrounds paint FIRST where the sort puts the
keyless last - the splash's palogo_eff0.prm behaviour in a different file type,
so implied_layer_key now covers it - and the 0xb100 group of four paints
10,11,8,12 where declaration order is 8,10,11,12.
That second point is a SECOND screen with a mis-ordered tie, which is what the
question needed, and it immediately kills a candidate: 10 and 11 are kind=0x2002
while 8 and 12 are 0x0000, so "descending kind then declaration index"
reproduces 10,11,8,12 exactly - and then fails both title groups, where every
element of 0x8083 is kind 0 and where 0x80a0 would predict 2,3,4,5,0,1,7 against
a measured 0,2,4,7,1,3,5. Seven candidates refuted now.

formats: a primitive layer is not in the file - measure it, table it, prove it
Two places checked for the key a .prm element sorts by, both empty:
* the declaration entry's four unread words are constant across every element
of all three measured screens (+28=0, +36=0xffffffff, +56=0, and +44 is a
button ordinal 1-5, 0xffffffff elsewhere);
* the bundle carries NO data for a primitive at all - the menu build declares
pteff00.prm, pteff02.prm and pteff05.t32 and has zero RATC children for any
of them, its 34 children being 21 T8aD sprites and 13 .rat records.
So the layer comes from the game code. But it is consistent, which is what makes
a per-name table a measurement rather than a fudge. Bracketing each unkeyed
element between the keys of its measured neighbours: pteff02.prm falls in
(0x8010, 0x8040) on BOTH screens it appears on, pteff00.prm is past the maximum
on both, and palogo_eff0.prm is below the minimum on the splash.
implied_layer_key records exactly those and nothing else; an unlisted primitive
keeps u32::MAX and still sorts last. With it, derived_paint_order produces the
same layer-key sequence as the order read off the running game on all three
measured screens - primitives included - and matches element-for-element on four
of the five bundle instances. The fifth is the title, differing only inside its
tied groups, which is a separate open question.
This does not make include_primitives safe by default: the 36 builds that come
out one colour are wiped by pzeff00.prm and pceff00.prm, never measured, hence
not in the table.

formats: a third measured paint order — the main menu, with two primitives
Read off the running game with screen_children.py and identified by pivot signature as GP_TITLE.pak ratc-index 8, the NEW GAME / LOAD GAME / TUTORIAL / OPTIONS / EXTRAS screen: paint order: 1 3 4 2 5 8 9 6 7 15 10 11 12 13 14 0 It is the first measured screen carrying TWO primitives, and they land in different places, which is the point. pteff02.prm (the 25% dim) paints 4th, beneath the whole UI; pteff00.prm (the transition fade, resting transparent) paints last. Both match their positions on the title screen exactly. So a primitive's place is per-element and stable by role - backdrop first, dim at slot 4, fade last - and there are now three permutations to test a derivation against rather than two. Wired into measured_paint_order, keyed by element names so both language builds get it. The English build composited with --primitives edge-correlates at 0.9591 at shift (0,0) against a framebuffer capture taken in the same session - a third screen confirming paint order, resting pose, fade alpha and primitives at once, against a capture this project had not seen before. 13 disc tests green. |

formats/cli: draw the .prm primitives, opt-in, because their paint order is unsolved
fill_quad composites an untextured primitive as a solid rectangle of the keyframes fade colour, pivot x 2 in size, placed and scaled exactly as a sprite is. Behind ComposeOptions::include_primitives and screen render --primitives. On the title screen, whose paint order is ground truth, it is measurably right: mean luminance 76.30 -> 63.72 against the captures 64.58, i.e. from +18% to -1.3%, and mean absolute difference 16.07 -> 13.08. The background was ~40% too bright; pteff02.prm, a 25% black dim, was what was missing. The wordmark is not dimmed by it because the measured order paints that quad at slot 4, beneath the logo. Edge correlation moves 0.9538 -> 0.9480, which is not informative here: a uniform dim scales gradients uniformly so a normalised edge score barely sees it. OFF BY DEFAULT, and that is the finding. A primitive has no T8aD header, so no layer key, and derived_paint_order sorts the keyless to the end. GP_DIALOGs pzeff00.prm is a single keyframe of opaque black at full screen; painted last it wipes the build. Of the 125 builds that draw a visible primitive, 36 come out >99% one colour with the derived order. No constant default works, because the two screens read off the running game disagree: the splash paints its primitive FIRST (the black backdrop) while the title paints one at slot 4 and another LAST (the fade-out). Declaration order fails the title too. A disc test measures the damage rather than asserting the feature works, so the number moves when the ordering is solved. Also records a false alarm worth keeping: a first pass reported 36 GP_DIALOG builds at "100% black", which was a crude near-black pixel threshold and not a black screen - those dialogs are dimmed 50% and perfectly legible. The genuinely wiped builds are a different set. |
