 {"ts": "2026-07-17T01:46:28+01:00", "type": "scar", "status": "fixed", "note": "Per-byte Gaussian elimination for production-sized video FEC can stall the single OBS receive owner and cascade socket loss. Receiver now inverts coefficients once per frame and uses table-driven GF(256); active Release assertions prove every 1..16 consecutive erasure case on 64x1400-byte shards under 50 ms."}
 {"ts": "2026-07-17T01:59:33+01:00", "type": "scar", "status": "open", "note": "Direct Raven LAN falsified trailing-parity sufficiency: a 24-datagram sequence gap left a 56-chunk keyframe at 52/56 with parity_present=false because all 16 V3 parity shards followed the data and fell in the same tail burst. Next cut must disperse parity/adapt block layout; deadline increases and repair flooding are not owners."}
 {"ts": "2026-07-17T02:34:05+01:00", "type": "verification", "status": "ok", "note": "Receiver completed-frame tombstones eliminated false post-FEC ghost assemblies: a 7-minute LAN run forwarded 54,000 payloads with zero video assembly expiry before an experimental weighted sender scheduler independently caused audio queue eviction; the scheduler was deleted. A later genuine 24-datagram tail burst left a frame 18/33 with only the leading 8 of 16 bookended parity shards available, proving V3 frame-wide bookends still need Moonlight-style multi-block FEC."}
+{"ts": "2026-07-17T02:58:43+01:00", "type": "rejected_path", "status": "ok", "note": "Adaptive frame-wide parity was tested and removed: 32 dispersed shards still expired a frame during a 54-datagram gap, and 64-shard production recovery violated the 50 ms CPU bound. V4 must use smaller independently recoverable blocks rather than a frame-wide bandwidth/matrix arms race. Periodic audio skips were traced separately to seven orphaned Raven WASAPI capture workers left by forced parent stops; the hidden scheduled task now reaps only stale Muninn, FFmpeg, encoder, and loopback workers before launching exactly one sender tree."}
