The three Static.slb cues and the menu bed now export to Ogg Vorbis and play.
`sylpheed_formats::media` does the assembly; nothing in port/ has heard of XMA.
Three things this milestone got wrong before it got right, all recorded in
docs/port/DECISIONS.md because the corrections are the useful part:
1. The cue offsets were a Rust `const` in the exporter. They are MEASURED, not
decoded -- a measured value compiled into the exporter is a measurement
wearing the costume of a decoded field, and nobody deletes it because nobody
can see it. They are authored/audio.json now.
2. I picked BGM_001 and wrote a careful `why` calling the choice arbitrary. The
menu's music is BGM_103, and it is in HANDOFF at 0fd8e69 -- the exact commit
BLOCKED.md says that row was reconciled against. Not stale: wrong when
written. I had summarised a negative without its reach, so "the TABLES cannot
say which BGM a screen plays" became "it is not on the disc". One word of
scope was the whole answer, and the export failed only because BGM_001
without its .slb extension hashes to nothing. That is luck, not design.
3. The comment above the BGM sum argued for unity gain "because halving is a mix
decision nobody made". It clipped at +1.8 dBFS. 1/n is the smallest constant
that provably cannot clip -- the same reasoning video.rs already carried for
its 5.1 downmix, in this repository, unread.
Unsettled and shipped as such: media::sound_bank_riffs returns THREE sub-waves
for BGM_103.slb where HANDOFF Q10's census says exactly two (the third is the
leading headerless region slb.rs emits for the voice path). The exporter sums all
three and writes a manifest warning, because which bytes belong together is the
decoders' question, not this exporter's -- and dropping one would destroy the
evidence, since a corrected export looks exactly like a correct one. Raised with
the Decoder; row in BLOCKED.md.
The gate is a null control, not a peak reading. A master-bus WAV that is
non-silent proves nothing -- the bed alone would look identical. So the same
scripted walk was run with <- in place of <v>, which fires no cue (Q5, measured),
and the difference is one 0.55 s burst at t=1.10 s and silence everywhere else.
The first attempt at that control returned bit-identical zero and I nearly filed
it as "cues never reach the bus": both runs ended at 1.115 s and the first press
lands at 1.17 s. A null result from an instrument that was not running is not a
null result.
Refutation attempt: HANDOFF Q8's three cue durations. They looked attackable --
0.133/0.172/0.169 s per packet, no shared rate -- but an XMA1 packet carries a
variable number of 512-sample frames, and the three come to 50.0/32.3/95.3
frames. Measured off the decoded Ogg: 0.533, 0.344, 1.016 s, every published
digit. SURVIVES, with its reach stated -- it confirms the assembly path and my
transcription, not the event bindings, which only an oracle can retake.
