Viewer frames render in long-lived Web Workers holding a project replica
(engine::remote: structural JSON diff/patch, Mirror, FrameServer); the
frame cache hands jobs to a RemoteFrames renderer (UI-thread fallback).
Roto Brush propagation runs in a job worker and streams segmentations
back (FrameSeg binary form), relayed to frame workers. Control-channel
wait:true commands whose job is offloaded reply when it ends. The Media
Browser browses a pluggable Browser: the file system on the desktop;
browser storage and File System Access folders on the web.

Depth of field in Advanced 3D comps uses the camera's iris (Fast Rectangle, Triangle to
Decagon, rotation, roundness, aspect, diffraction fringe) and highlight gain/threshold/
saturation through the Classic 3D bokeh kernel. Collapsed precomps in an Advanced 3D comp
add their nested layers as real geometry (meshes, extrusions, cards) lit by the parent;
2D collapsed precomps draw nested 3D layers with the parent's renderer. Text and shape
strokes extrude as bevelled meshes stacked in paint order (model extrude_stacked).

Preview panel: five shortcuts (Spacebar, Shift+Spacebar, Numpad 0, Shift+Numpad 0,
Alt+Numpad 0) each with saved options (include video/audio/overlays/layer controls, loop,
cache before playback, range incl. play around current time, play from, frame rate, skip,
resolution, full screen, play cached frames, move time to preview time), persisted in
prefs; playback.settings.get/set; the playback loop follows the preview plan.
Align panel: layer.align {edge, to} and layer.distribute {mode} engine commands (bounds
through transform and parents, one undo step); Align Layers to dropdown and Distribute row.

Render Settings: field render with 3:2 pulldown phases, effects/solo/guide
layer/color depth/frame blending/motion blur overrides, custom time sampling
(duration), storage overflow through a quota hook. Output Module: crop
(edges or region of interest), resize (presets, lock aspect, quality),
straight/premultiplied/alpha-only channels, post-render actions, include
project link, audio channels and PCM formats, WebM bitrate and key frame
interval. Render Settings / Output Module templates with built-ins and
defaults per slot (Edit > Templates dialogs), render logs next to the
output, Notify on completion. All through renderQueue.* commands and
persisted in the project.

- Transform: Use Composition's Shutter Angle / Shutter Angle, sampling the transform across
the shutter via EffectHost::params_at (EffectEnv::shutter carries the comp shutter when
motion blur is on); the GPU path defers to the CPU when blurring.
- Glow: Glow Operation (blend modes) and Glow Colors > Arbitrary Map.
- Cartoon: Advanced > Edge Enhancement (shock-filter sharpening / softening).

effectcraft-vp9enc gains inter frames: single LAST reference, 16x16/8x8 blocks,
candidate + diamond search refined to quarter samples with the regular 8-tap
filters, NEARESTMV/NEARMV/ZEROMV/NEWMV with spec MV prediction, skip blocks,
the in-loop deblocking filter, per-frame forward probability updates, a key
frame interval and target-bitrate rate control. Decoded output matches the
encoder's reconstruction exactly through FilmCraft's decoder and ffmpeg.
WebM export now encodes sequentially with a key frame every two seconds.
