Export correctness:
- Honor the user's color-range (Limited/Full) on the software encode path:
thread full_range through gpu_yuv (new shader range uniform), the CPU
swscale fallback (sws_setColorspaceDetails → BT.709 + range, fixing the
BT.601 hue/level shift on odd-width exports), and the encoder color tags.
- Reject HDR + WebM up front with a clear message and log the forced HEVC
override instead of producing an unplayable file.
- Delete dead render_frame_to_rgba_hdr (hardcoded Stretch; live HDR path
already honors the fit mode).
Decode/playback (video.rs):
- Drain the decoder at EOF (send_eof + flush) so the final B-frame-delayed
frames render instead of erroring; per-frame logic extracted to a helper.
- Missing-PTS frames continue monotonically rather than snapping to ts=0.
- Force exact thumbnail width so sub-128px sources aren't shown stretched.
Resource leaks (gpu-video-encoder):
- dmabuf import_raw: RAII guard frees the duped fd + partial VkImages/memory
on every error path.
- vaapi alloc: free device/frames-ctx/AVFrames on the unexpected-DRM path.
Data model / robustness:
- collapse_boundary_spikes requires a full curve reversal (all control
points) so it no longer deletes a real lens/sliver and drops the fill.
- Export audio spin-wait ignores a stale `finished` flag when a forward
seek is pending (was rendering silence over real audio).
- RasterDiff apply_before/after take current dims and skip on a post-resize
mismatch.
- beam_archive read_media_full caps the preallocation from untrusted total_len.
UI/visual:
- SVG export skips hidden layers/empty groups; import folds fill-opacity into
gradients and surfaces failures as a notification.
- Active raster-layer border uses playback_time + overlay_transform.
- gpu_brush remove_layer_texture also evicts the stale low-res proxy.
- ensure_raster_resident_for_undo registers faulted frames in the LRU so
resident RAM stays bounded.

The export render bucket was dominated by re-rendering the static document
background through Vello every frame and by nearest-sampling the video on
upscale.
- Background cache: render the (static) background through Vello once, snapshot
the composited HDR accumulator, and restore it with a single texture copy on
every later frame instead of a Vello render + sRGB-convert + composite (+2
submits). Invalidated on resize. background-render 3.6ms -> 0.56ms (1080p),
7.5ms -> ~0.5ms (4K).
- blit_straight now uses the bilinear sampler — video frames are scaled to the
output size, and nearest made that blocky. Fixes export and live preview.
- LB_RENDER_PROFILE: gated per-frame timing split (build/decode vs composite/
upload vs srgb, and background vs layers) used to find all of the above. Kept
as a debug aid for the remaining decode stages.
Net: export render ~12.8ms -> ~7.4ms/frame on a 1080p video clip.
Imported video is a Group[Video, Audio] that rendered as a Vello-baked
Vector layer, re-uploading the full frame to Vello's image atlas every
frame (~17ms/frame at 1080p, hitting playback and export alike). Extract
video frames out of the Group/clip scene recursion into
VideoRenderInstances so they composite via the GPU Video path; mixed
video+vector containers fall back to Vello (correct, unaccelerated).
Also route video through hardware sRGB decode: upload raw sRGB bytes to an
Rgba8UnormSrgb texture and blit with a non-unpremultiplying shader variant
(blit_straight), removing the per-frame per-pixel CPU sRGB->linear pass.
Add an F3 GPU-timestamp timer and a per-frame video texture cache.
Drops the live composite of a 1080p video from ~17ms to ~2-3ms.

Resolve all compiler warnings across daw-backend, lightningbeam-core, and
lightningbeam-editor:
- Delete dead code: the superseded CPU raster tools in raster_tool.rs
(EffectBrush/Smudge/Gradient/Transform/Warp/Liquify/Selection — replaced by
the GPU path), plus orphaned helpers and never-read struct fields.
- Mechanical fixes: drop unused imports/variables/mut, underscore unused params,
`drop(&x)` -> `let _ = x`, deprecated egui::Rounding -> CornerRadius, snake_case
rename, elided-lifetime Cow<'_, [u8]>.
- Keep the WIP CSS theming system (theme.rs/theme_render.rs) under
#[allow(dead_code)] rather than deleting it.
Editor checks warning-free; 293 core tests pass.
Multiplicative tint left blacks black, so outlines (the main thing to ghost in line
art) never picked up the warm/cool color. Switched the canvas-blit tint to a screen
blend (out = base + tint - base*tint): black → tint color, white unchanged, and a
clean no-op at tint=(0,0,0) for all normal blits. Reverted the default .w slots to 0.

- OnionSkinSettings (editor view state): enabled, frames_before/after (default 2/2),
opacity (0.35), warm past / cool future tints, linear falloff. Threaded App →
SharedPaneState (gated off during playback) → VelloRenderContext.
- Toggle: View ▸ Onion Skinning + the `O` shortcut (AppAction::ToggleOnionSkin).
- Tint: packed an RGB multiply into the canvas-blit matrix uniform's unused .w slots
(1,1,1 = no tint for all normal blits); BlitTransform::with_tint. Shader multiplies.
- Render: for the ACTIVE raster layer only, blit the N neighbouring keyframes (full
texture if resident, else the low-res proxy — uploaded on demand) tinted + faint,
composited behind the current frame. Off during playback.
Next: a settings panel (frame count/opacity) and vector-layer ghosts.
The canvas blit used a nearest sampler, so the upscaled low-res proxy looked
blocky. Added a Linear sampler + `CanvasBlitPipeline::blit_smooth`; the raster
render uses it only for the proxy path (full-res canvas stays nearest/crisp). The
bind-group layout already declares the canvas texture filterable, so no layout
change was needed.
Scrubbing onto a paged-out raster keyframe flashed blank for the 1-2 frames its
full pixels took to page in. Now a low-res proxy is shown in that gap.
- core: `MediaKind::RasterProxy` (id derived from the keyframe id via
`raster_proxy_media_id`); `brush_engine::encode_raster_proxy_png` downscales a full
RGBA buffer to a ≤192px-long-edge PNG. Save writes a proxy beside each resident
frame's full PNG (paged-out frames keep their existing proxy row, like the full).
Load eagerly decodes proxies (small) into `RasterKeyframe::proxy`.
- editor: a separate `proxy_layer_cache` in the GPU brush (own recency LRU, budget 64
since each is ~1/100th a full frame) + `ensure_proxy_texture`/`get_proxy_texture`.
The raster render, when the full texture isn't resident, blits the proxy mapped to
the keyframe's FULL logical dims so it upscales via the sampler. F3 VRAM figure now
includes proxy textures.
When the full pixels land (async fault-in), the full path takes over automatically.
Proxies only exist after a save+reload; freshly-painted unsaved frames stay resident
so they need none.

`raster_layer_cache` (one ~w·h·16-byte Rgba16Float CanvasPair per keyframe) had no
size cap — scrubbing a long timeline grew VRAM without bound (~33 MB/frame at 1080p),
the largest unbounded consumer. Added a recency LRU (RASTER_LAYER_CACHE_MAX = 12):
`ensure_layer_texture` bumps the frame to most-recent and evicts the oldest past the
budget; the shown frame (and any rendered this pass) is always most-recent so it's
never the victim. Evicted textures re-upload cheaply from the resident/faulted-in
pixels on revisit. `remove_layer_texture` keeps the LRU in sync.
F3 debug overlay now reports the tracked VRAM (raster cache MB + frame count), pushed
from the GPU brush whenever the cache changes (wgpu exposes no allocator query).
Color correctness:
- Unpremultiply before the sRGB OETF on the display and export blits;
encoding premultiplied color corrupted antialiased/transparent edges.
- Tag exported video as full-range BT.709 (matrix/primaries/transfer).
- Run perception effects (invert, brightness/contrast, hue/saturation)
in gamma space to match standard editors.
- Interpolate gradients in gamma space across the raster and vector paths.
- Render effect thumbnails in the same linear space as the live pipeline.
Brush performance:
- Store the raster canvas as Rgba16Float (no shadow banding from 8-bit
linear), with an incremental per-tile ping-pong sync replacing the
per-frame full-canvas copy.
- Do the linear->sRGB readback conversion on the GPU and reuse a cached
scratch texture, dropping a ~110ms-per-stroke CPU decode.
Cleanup:
- Single COLOR_WGSL prelude and shared CPU sRGB scalars instead of ~8
duplicated copies of the transfer functions.
- Shared compute-pipeline builder; smudge folded onto the tile-sync path.
