Carry per-picture truth and byte-exact source provenance THROUGH the stream so
the muxer (and the upcoming video index) read MEASURED facts instead of
assuming them. Honest data in, honest data out.
- codec/coding.rs: codec-agnostic PictureInfo (CodingType / FieldOrder + the
accessors field_order/coding_type/nb_fields/progressive/keyframe). Each codec
folds its raw signals in; consumers use only accessors, never branch on codec.
- mpeg2: builds PictureInfo from the picture coding extension and carries it +
SourcePos (source_marks, parallel to pts_marks) on every emitted frame.
- pes / codec::Frame: additive `coding` + `source`, forwarded through the
highway; None for audio/subtitle and the network/stdio deserialize hop.
- mkvstream: DEFER muxer construction until the first coded picture, set the
video track's FieldOrder from the MEASURED value, THEN write the header —
right the first time, no guess, no seek-back. An interlaced track that arrives
with no measured order is LOGGED loudly and left UNDETERMINED, never faked.
- mkv: MkvTrack::video no longer guesses TFF (a bitstream property the scan
cannot know is UNDETERMINED at build). Removed VideoStream::top_field_first
(the dead scan-time guess) crate-wide.
- Tests: parser population (every PictureInfo facet + per-PES source carry) and
mux-stream consumption (measured -> correct; missing -> UNDETERMINED, not
faked). Two obsolete tests updated only after confirming (their own comments)
they existed to enforce the deleted hardcoded-TFF.
- FieldOrder now derives from the bitstream's measured top_field_first
(Some(true)→TFF, Some(false)→BFF) instead of hardcoding TFF for all
interlaced content; falls back to TFF when unmeasured. Adds
VideoStream::top_field_first; DVD/BD scan sets None with a precise
TODO(spec) for parser→title plumbing.
- CICP (matrix/transfer/primaries/range) now prefers measured CICP from
the bitstream (VideoStream::measured_cicp) over the coarse ColorSpace
enum, so the container stops assuming a colour space the stream may
contradict. Enum remains the fallback.
- VobSub S_VOBSUB CodecPrivate now emits a `size: WxH` line ahead of the
palette per the .idx format so players place/scale subs correctly.
- SeekHead: when zero cues are written, the CUES Seek entry is Voided
instead of leaving a dangling pointer to the Cues offset (now Tags/EOF).
- AC-3 Channels back-patch offset is captured from the writer instead of
the hardcoded chan_elem_pos+2 (decoupled from the VINT width choice).
- Hoisted inline CICP codes and the dvcC fourcc to named constants citing
ITU-T H.273 / RFC 9559; fixed the stale FieldOrder comment.
- DefaultDuration vs pulldown: precise TODO(spec) left (needs the same
parser→title channel as top_field_first).
Tests: BFF-from-measured-flag, measured-CICP-overrides-enum, VobSub size:
line present/omitted, zero-cue SeekHead Void. precommit (1.86) green.
Implements the rc.5.2 quick-units list from the DVD coverage audit and
corrects the "passes-but-encodes-the-bug" tests that could not
distinguish correct from wrong behaviour.
New tests (each with the bug it guards):
mux/mkv.rs
- field_duration_is_direct_trackentry_child_not_in_video: depth-aware
check that DefaultDecodedFieldDuration (and DefaultDuration) are direct
TrackEntry children, NOT nested in the Video master. Replaces the flat
find_id byte-scan that passed either way. Adds master_children /
first_track_entry depth-walking helpers.
- pal_576i_emits_bt470bg_colour_codes / ntsc_480i_emits_smpte170m_colour_codes:
assert the actual CICP tuples written into the MKV Colour master —
PAL (5,5,5,1) vs NTSC (6,6,6,1) — not just stream-layer ColorSpace.
- ntsc_480i_field_order_is_tff_and_encoded: pins NTSC 480i hardcoded TFF
and its ~33.37ms/16.68ms frame/field durations, asserting the encoded
FlagInterlaced/FieldOrder bytes (480i was never exercised before).
ifo.rs
- video_attr_absolute_bytes_pin_real_layout: drives parse_video_attr with
HARDCODED real DVD-Video bytes (PAL/NTSC x 4:3/16:9, plus mpeg_version
in bits 7-6) instead of v_atr_byte, so a co-edit of the shift constants
can't re-seed the PAL-as-NTSC bug. Anchors that permitted_df bits (1-0)
are not read as the TV system.
disc/dvd.rs
- scan_dvd_titles_lpcm_routes_to_a0_pid_range: LPCM (coding 4) → sub-id
0xA0 → PID 0xBDA0, disjoint from the AC-3 0xBD8x space, channels kept.
- scan_dvd_titles_multiple_vobsub_tracks_distinct_pids: three VobSub
tracks → distinct 0x20+ordinal PIDs, per-language, shared palette.
css/mod.rs
- crack_outcome_reaches_cracked_with_span: drives the full crack scan to
CrackOutcome::Cracked via a Stevenson-crackable synthetic sector and
asserts crack_span recording (the Cracked branch was never exercised).
- recrack_succeeds_on_other_vts_extents: per-VTS re-crack SUCCESS path.
- all_locked_synthetic_iso_yields_css_key_missing_signal: all-locked
multi-extent ISO → ScrambledUncracked, the signal the scan converts to
css_error = Some(CssKeyMissing).
Corrected fixtures (passes-but-encodes-the-bug):
- scan_dvd_titles_mixed_audio_codecs_distinct_pids: real channel nibbles
(AC-3 5.1 = 6ch, DTS 2.0 = 2ch) replacing the 1ch placeholders; asserts
channel counts and exact canonical PIDs (0xBD80 / 0xBD88).
- ebml.rs FieldOrder comment: drop the stale "PAL DVD (576i) is
bottom-field-first" line that contradicted the TFF-for-all code.
- CSS: unlock scrambled-sector reads on enforcing drives via bus-auth
only; classify sense 6F/03 as CSS-locked; early-bail on a fully locked
scan; gate the AACS handshake off DVD discs.
- DVD first-play menu no longer prepended to the feature: read the title
VOBS base from vtstt_vobs (0xC4), not the menu VOBS vtsm_vobs (0xC0).
- Interlaced field-duration (DefaultDecodedFieldDuration) written as a
direct TrackEntry child rather than inside Video, so Windows reports
the correct frame rate.
- Audio channel count read from the AC-3 bitstream; FieldOrder set to
TFF; per-track BPS tags.
- Structured disc diagnostics at --log-level 3; reduced per-operation
log spam.
- keydb.rs: separate default_path()/no_home_dir() doc blocks; correct the
false XDG lock-step claim (Linux write path uses $HOME, ignores
XDG_CONFIG_HOME; read-side search also checks XDG_CONFIG_HOME).
- io/pipeline.rs: use Release/Acquire on the abandoned flag so a leaked
consumer reliably skips close() on weak memory models (ARM64/POWER),
not just x86 TSO.
- mux/disc.rs: cache the decrypt-loss Arc at construction; lost_bytes()
no longer clones an Arc per frame on the mux hot path.
- disc/dvd.rs: assert display_aspect mapping for both 16:9 (PAL test) and
4:3 (NTSC test).
- mux/resolve.rs: extract css_error_aborts() helper and unit-test the
scrambled-but-uncracked CSS guard (Fix 6) incl. the --raw exemption.
- aacs/keys.rs: add unit tests for mkb_type_raw/mkb_type/mkb_is_uhd and
MkbType (Category C 2.0 UHD, prerecorded 1.0, no-0x10-record None).
- release.yml: publish job needs [verify, test] so a failing test suite
blocks crates.io publication.
Fix three DVD video-attribute bugs surfaced by a PAL disc detected as
NTSC:
- PAL/NTSC: parse video_format from VTS_V_ATR bits 5-4, not bits 1-0
(the old mask read permitted_df, so PAL 576i/25fps was mis-detected
as NTSC 480i/29.97). Named consts replace the magic bit positions.
- Anamorphic aspect: write MKV DisplayWidth/Height from the disc's
display_aspect (16:9 720x576 -> 1024x576) instead of square pixels,
so 16:9 DVDs no longer render as 4:3.
- Colour: stamp SD colorimetry (PAL=BT.470BG, NTSC=SMPTE-170M) instead
of BT.709 (HD).
Adds VideoStream.display_aspect (threaded through every muxer) plus
TvSystem/DvdAspect/ColorSpace plumbing, with regression tests. Removes
the deprecated Disc mux set_halt bridge (use with_halt).
Test-hardening release, no runtime changes. Adds spec-grounded unit tests
across the silent-corruption surfaces — UDF/MPLS/CLPI/IFO parsing, BD/DVD
title + extent assembly, AACS/CSS key handling, TS/PS demux + codec parsers,
MKV/EBML container output, the mux pipeline, sector prefetch + decrypt
decorator, drive/SCSI sense decoding, label extraction, and core I/O. Each
test is grounded in the format spec or real on-disc behavior and verified to
fail under a targeted source mutation. No behavior changed.
Library-wide review-and-fix pass: tightened AACS keydb/handshake/variant
handling and trailing-partial-unit policy, corrected MPLS mark offset and
added UDF allocation bounds, hardened the mux/codec framing and M2TS paths,
guarded SCSI READ CAPACITY short transfers and unified error mapping, added
overflow guards on untrusted disc input, and made prefetch shutdown
deterministic. Release profile now builds with thin LTO + single codegen unit.
WO-2 (delete SectorReader trait):
- The 0.18 trait split into SectorSource (read-only) and SectorSink
(write-only) is final; the legacy SectorReader alias was a bridge.
- Renames every internal &mut dyn SectorReader (~25 sites) to
&mut dyn SectorSource. The trait method capacity() becomes
capacity_sectors() with a default of 0 (preserves SectorReader's
default-0 behavior).
- Deletes the SectorReader trait, its blanket-to-Source bridge, and
the FileSectorReader type alias. Adds explicit forwarding impls
for Box<dyn SectorSource> and &mut dyn SectorSource so generic
decorators like DecryptingSectorSource<S: SectorSource> compose.
WO-3a (extract Disc::patch):
- Moves Disc::patch (1230 lines) and bytes_bad_in_title from
disc/mod.rs into disc/patch.rs as a split inherent impl. Zero
behavior change — pure mechanical relocation. disc/mod.rs drops
from 3,945 to 2,714 LOC.
WO-6 (partial):
- Deletes src/labels/png_filenames.rs — was a 72-LOC stub with
detect() returning false, never wired into the PARSERS registry.
project docs doc drift fixes (audited 2026-05-13):
- JUMP_BASE_SECTORS: 256→1024 (64 MB base for UHD, not 8 MB)
- PASSN_DAMAGE_THRESHOLD_PCT: 12→6
- PASSN_SKIP_SECTORS_BASE: 64→32
- MAX_RANGE_SECS=180: replaced by proportional range_sectors × 25,
capped at RANGE_BUDGET_CAP_SECS=1800.
Audit pass against the project docs "no English text in library code" rule.
Found 9 call sites that violated the contract by stuffing English into
io::Error::new(kind, "…") or by abusing Error::DeviceNotFound { path }
as a free-form description field. Each is now a typed Error variant.
New variants and codes: ScsiInterfaceUnavailable (E1004), DeviceLocked
(E1005), IoKitPluginFailed (E1006), UnsupportedPlatform (E2003),
PlatformNotImplemented (E2004), MapfileInvalid (E6011), DiscUrlNotDirect
(E9009).
labels::apply() previously pushed Commentary/Descriptive/Score/IME and
" (Secondary)" English literals into AudioStream.label, leaking into
MKV titles + autorip UI. AudioStream now exposes structured `purpose:
LabelPurpose`, SubtitleStream `qualifier: LabelQualifier`. Callers
translate to localized text. label keeps codec-formatting only.
API hygiene: 11 mux/* modules dropped from `pub` to `pub(crate)` —
their *types* are still re-exported from lib.rs, but the modules were
leaking low-level EBML/TS/network primitives. Stream trait gets a real
rustdoc explaining read-vs-write split. lib.rs grouped re-exports into
documented sections. ScanOptions::with_keydb() removed (one-method-per-
action rule); use struct literal.
Dead-code sweep: removed lookahead.rs (orphan, never declared as mod),
tsreader.rs (TsDemuxReader unused), ebml::{write_int,read_vint,SEEK_*},
ts::{scan_first/last_pts,scan_duration,SCAN_HEAD/TAIL_SIZE,take/set_
remainder}, MkvMuxer codec_private_slots/filled fields and
fill_codec_private method (deferred-codecPrivate path never used since
the v0.10 PES rewrite). cargo clippy --all-targets -D warnings clean.
Tests: new error::tests for variant codes + Display "no English" guard +
io::ErrorKind mapping. 233 lib tests, all green (was 230).
Breaking: ScanOptions::with_keydb removed; mux/* modules pub(crate);
AudioStream and SubtitleStream gained required fields; UnsupportedDrive
{ product_revision: "Renesas not yet implemented" } no longer produced
(use PlatformNotImplemented).
Design fix: codec_privates are now a field on DiscTitle, not a separate
parameter passed through the pipeline. This eliminates the root cause of
the network codec_private bug (forgot to pass the separate param).
API changes:
- output() takes (url, &DiscTitle) — no separate codec_privates param
- MkvOutputStream::create, M2tsOutputStream::create, NetworkOutputStream::connect
all read codec_privates from title.codec_privates
- M2tsMeta::from_title() takes only &DiscTitle — reads privates from title
- Deleted from_title_with_privates (was the wrong-name duplicate)
- Merged read_header + read_header_from_stream into one read_header(impl Read)
- Deleted finish(self) from TsMuxer, keep only finish(&mut self)
Rule: ONE public method per action. No _with_X, _from_Y, _ref variants.
Stream trait: read() returns PesFrame, write() accepts PesFrame.
A stream is a stream — you read from it or write to it.
No separate Input/Output traits.
API: libfreemkv::input(url) and libfreemkv::output(url, title, codecs)
Returns Box<dyn Stream>.
