Live view hardware encoder: fixes from the first device run
...
- fp_venc: accept the source's buffer count (the Frame's v4l2loopback has max_buffers=2; asking for 3 failed the
probe); OUTPUT buffers remember which picture they hold, so repeats (standby, still scenes) skip the conversion
(720p: 35% -> 2.5% of a core with the headset asleep).
- Pipeline: raw H.264 stamped on arrival (-use_wallclock_as_timestamps, same clock as pulse) with a 32-byte probe:
-framerate was ignored, -fflags nobuffer lost the first seconds, frames numbered from 0 held all output ~7 s next
to the sound. frag_keyframe so a requested keyframe starts a fragment (a joining viewer starts there).
Verified on the Frame (headset asleep): selftest ok (104 cases), probe at 360p-1080p, end to end through
livestream.start: 720p36 + AAC in 0.1 s fragments, audio and video spans match, a second viewer starts on its
requested keyframe at once, nothing left running after stop; FP_VENC_DISABLE=1 falls back to x264.

Live view: hardware H.264 encoder (fp_venc), x264 stays as fallback
...
native/venc/fp_venc: own clean-room driver of the Frame's iris encoder (V4L2 stateful encoder interface, written from
native/venc/SPEC.md = kernel docs + values measured on the Frame). Reads SteamVR's headset-view webcam, box-scales and
converts RGB24 to NV12 (NEON, bit-identical scalar reference), CBR H.264 with SPS/PPS on every IDR, one frame per slot
of an even fraction of the panel rate read through DRM (96 Hz -> 32 fps). stdin "k" = keyframe, EOF = stop;
--probe/--selftest. Static freestanding aarch64 binary in artifacts/linux-arm64-bin (reproducible).
livestream: the script probes fp_venc and pipes it into ffmpeg (-c:v copy + AAC), else the old x264 30 fps path; the
helper is synced to ~/.local/share/frameport/bin by sha256 at stream start (no agent change); a new viewer asks for a
keyframe and waits for it; the status line shows the encoder and fps. Tests: hardware/fallback script branches,
keyframe-on-join, helper sync; tests/test_venc.py compares convert.c with a Python reference (native marker).
Not yet run on the device.

Live view: sound, 360p-1080p + full-size qualities, smoother catch-up
...
- Sound: the default output's pulse monitor (what the headset plays) as AAC in the same fMP4; the
player starts muted (browser autoplay rules) with a Sound on button. Video timestamps go to the
wall clock (-ts mono2abs) instead of forcing it on the pulse input, which gave bursts of AAC packets
one shared timestamp; aresample=async=1 keeps the sound continuous.
- Late viewers start at a keyframe of the video track (audio samples are all sync).
- Qualities 360p/480p/720p/1080p scale down only; 'full' sends SteamVR's headset view at its own
size (1920x1080 today; v4l2cam has no size option, so 2K/4K would only upscale).
- Player keeps a 0.3 s cushion and catches up at 1.1x; it seeks only when >2 s behind (seeking to the
very edge starved playback).

SSH exec channel; ffmpeg stops when the channel closes. A relay on 127.0.0.1 keeps the init segment and
the fragments since the last keyframe for late viewers and serves an MSE player page, opened in the
default browser (Flet can't show video outside flet build bundles). Verified on the dev Frame: 30 fps
in Edge, ~0.1 s behind the newest frame, 0.34 core at 720p with a quiet picture.
