240 s parked on the main menu, reached by using the XMA probe log as the screen
oracle instead of video -- the route the previous iteration wrote down. Menu in
26.8 s against never-in-378 s for the video rig, guest at 0.92x, capture at
0.08 % silence against the recipe page's own best of 0.31 %. BGM_103's contexts
verify the screen and no ADV context appears afterwards, so the attract loop
never took over.
Three results, two instruments.
NO SEAM: zero runs >= 0.3 s below median-18 dB in 232 s. The port's 3.4 s
near-silence is a property of its authored loop, not of the game.
NOT THE WAVE LENGTH: autocorrelation r at 87.750 s is -0.009 on four independent
windows; the top lag is 61.909 s with a 2x harmonic. Estimator controls recover
87.750 and 60.000 exactly.
61.93 s, INDEPENDENTLY: locating 30 s slices of the capture inside the decoded
summed waves shows playback advancing exactly +5.00 s per 5 s and wrapping at
61.93, from three wraps. Control: slices cut from the wave itself at 10/45/70 s
are found at 10.00/45.00/70.00. Two points mis-lock where the slice straddles a
wrap and they carry the two lowest scores in the table.
Offsets span 0.25..57.18 s of an 87.744 s wave, so the loop is [~0, 61.93) and
the final ~25.8 s is never played -- exactly where bgm-two-stems.md found the
fade-out and trailing silence. The game loops before the fade, which is why
there is no seam.
Also corrects my own '8 of 10 three-chunk regions start mid-stream'. The port
counts 25 three-chunk regions; it is right that both numbers cannot describe the
same set. My audit run was CUT SHORT -- the committed file ends mid-list with no
summary line -- so that was a ratio over an unknown fraction of the population,
and the claim that the defect is specific to multichannel regions is now
unsupported. The ADV verification and the fix's own sweep are unaffected; that
sweep ran to completion and printed its totals.
