The Decoder's finding, applied. `rest()` returns each element's last hold
keyframe chosen independently of every other element: right for anything that
ends the screen settled, exactly wrong for a transient. The title's
ptlogo_back2eff1 is a two-frame flash (0 until t52, 255 at t54-56, 0 by t58), so
its last hold IS the flash peak and rest() left it burning -- five of them, drawn
at once.
The settled instant is the longest interval containing no keyframe time, over a
bundle's TOP-LEVEL elements. Reproduced here before adopting: title [160, 236],
midpoint 198, the Decoder's number to the unit. The top-level restriction is what
makes it match -- including the ptloop leaves gives [269, 540].
AGAINST THE ORACLE:
title 20.92 RMSE 1.81% -> 14.61 RMSE 0.26%
publisher_logo 9.05 0.75% -> 2.17 0.01%
developer_logos 8.86 0.33% -> 3.05 0.01%
main_menu 0.08% -> 0.08% window too narrow
extras 0.19% -> 0.19% window too narrow
Seven times fewer differing pixels on the title, seventy-five times fewer on the
publisher splash, whose differing region is now a 13x18 box. The largest
correctness gain this port has had, and none of it is mine -- it is a decode
computed from the keyframe table with no reference to any capture.
APPLIED ONLY WHERE THE WINDOW IS WIDE, and the bar is not invented. This export's
widths split with nothing in between: 214, 190, 145, 76, then 12, 12, 8, 4. The
bar is 30 units -- the Decoder's disc-wide census puts the knee there (30% of
bundles >= 30, 42% under 10, the latter mostly loop* fragments meant to be in
motion) and this export's screens sit 4x either side with nothing between 12 and
46. Two independent populations agreeing on where to cut.
Checked unbroken: boot pacing unmoved, scripted walk runs end to end with focus
restored.
Also recorded: my "34 focus-record elements, only 2 varying" is right for
GP_TITLE and reads as a fact about the format -- disc-wide it is 210 varying, 202
with rest() at the peak, concentrated in the paks a wider port reaches next. And
their sharper framing, which I have adopted: a pulsing element has no resting
pose at all, so rest() is MALFORMED rather than mis-answered on one.
