The portal reports refusals only in OBS's log; a denied, cancelled or failed
source selection now fails with an actionable reason instead of waiting
forever. check --expect-motion rejects black or frozen footage, and the
hardware script checks only runs that recorded, tests restore tokens in their
own step, and treats closing a window as informational: on Hyprland the
stream keeps its last frame, so sessions must end on game exit.
Documents what the rig proved and what it found, adds the hardware sign-off
script for the Hyprland machine and an (untested) Windows validation script,
and updates CI to build the cached OBS runtime, run tests and lint the Windows
code paths.
Runs encoder verification, Wayland and X11 capture with segment and remux
checks, and five failure scenarios that must end in an honest failed status:
source lost, window closed, unwritable segments, low disk space and a portal
that grants no source.
Matroska output can stay buffered until a segment closes, so progress counts
bytes across all segments and the stall limit scales with segment length.
Unknown capture source types now fail instead of recording an empty
placeholder. The rig gains an Xwayland mode for Xcomposite window capture.
PipeWire capture keeps its size and last frame after its stream stops, so the
recorder follows the stream state OBS logs. Recording fails when the segment
on disk stops growing (OBS kept counting bytes into a dead muxer and missed a
full disk) and stops while enough space remains to finalise the last segment.
Failures stay visible after the output stops.
Adds a check command that verifies keyframe-aligned segments and a remux
across segment boundaries, and gives the rig desktop audio.
clipbin-obs starts the pinned libobs on a dedicated thread, opens exactly the
bundled plugin allowlist, and records official capture sources through one
hardware encoder into keyframe-aligned Matroska segments. Status reaches
Recording only once the source has a picture and the segment grows on disk.
clipbin-probe lists and verifies hardware encoders and records from a real
capture source, printing status, health and segment events for validation.
Linux builds libobs and an allowlist of official plugins from source in OBS's
relocatable layout. Windows copies the official release byte-for-byte so the
Game Capture hook keeps its signature. Adds a headless Wayland rig for
PipeWire/portal capture tests on machines without a display.
