+* Fmp4FragmentPlane — a SUBSCRIBABLE fragmented-MP4 plane, fed by one
+* {@link import('./fmp4-box-splitter.js').Fmp4BoxSplitter}.
+*
+* ## Why a plane and not a callback
+*
+* The operator's requirement for HKSV was explicit: the live fMP4 source built
+* for it must be **dual-use**, so a HomeKit-triggered recording also lands in
+* CamStack as an additional videoclip source alongside the recorder and the NC
+* clip ring — *one fragmenter, two consumers; do not build an HKSV-only pipe*
+* (`docs/roadmap.md` item 4b). A single-callback pipe makes the second consumer
+* a second ffmpeg child of the same camera. So this is the same shape the
+* broker's other multi-consumer surfaces already have
+* (`AudioChunkPlane`, the push packet plane): N independent subscriptions over
+* one producer.
+*
+* **Nothing consumes it yet.** Phase 4 brings the HKSV delegate and phase 4b the
+* clip source; both are named here so the seam is not re-invented, and neither
+* is built.
+*
+* ## The init segment is RETAINED
+*
+* A subscriber that attaches mid-stream — the clip consumer joining an already
+* running HKSV session, which is the whole dual-use case — receives the
+* retained `ftyp`+`moov` as its first packet and then live fragments. Without
+* retention its fragments are undecodable and the failure looks like a codec
+* problem.
+*
+* ## A slow subscriber is CLOSED, never silently gapped
+*
+* `AudioChunkPlane` drops its oldest chunk on overflow, which for audio costs a
+* click. An fMP4 stream with a hole is not a shorter clip, it is a corrupt one:
+* `moof` sequence numbers jump, the consumer's demuxer desynchronises, and HKSV
+* shows a clip that fails to play with nothing anywhere saying why. So a
+* subscription whose queue overflows is ENDED with a reason, loudly, and the
+* other subscriptions are untouched.
+*
+* ## The PREBUFFER (phase 3)
+*
+* HKSV asks for context BEFORE the trigger — `CameraRecordingOptions.prebufferLength`
+* is a HAP-mandated minimum of 4000 ms — and a subscriber that attaches at the
+* motion edge has none. So the plane optionally retains the last few fragments
+* and replays them to a subscriber that asks for them.
+*
+* Three things this ring gets right, each of which is a measured fact rather
+* than a preference (see [D84](../../../../docs/decisions/adr-0084.md)):
+*
+*  - **It is bounded by TIME *and* BYTES.** On the live fleet a 720p copy
+*    fragment is ~255 KB and a 4K one is ~6.35 MB — a 25× spread over the same
+*    window. A time-only bound is a per-camera RAM figure nobody can predict.
+*  - **The window is measured on ARRIVAL, not parsed from `tfdt`.** The
+*    splitter deliberately never computes a fragment's duration (a second
+*    opinion about a fact the muxer owns), and a prebuffer cares about how long
+*    ago the bytes turned up, which is exactly what arrival time answers.
+*  - **A replay is not backlog.** A subscriber taking N retained fragments gets
+*    its queue capacity raised by N for them, because closing a subscriber as a
+*    slow consumer for the prebuffer it explicitly asked for would be the
+*    stupidest possible failure — and, with `DEFAULT_QUEUE_CAPACITY` of 4 and a
+*    ring of 4, the guaranteed one.
+*
+* ## `isLast`
+*
+* hap-nodejs requires the delegate to mark exactly one `RecordingPacket` with
+* `isLast` — a generator that finishes without it produces the twelve-second
+* timeout loop [D50](../../../../../docs/decisions/adr-0050.md) deleted. The
+* plane therefore computes it at DELIVERY time: a packet is last when the plane
+* has ended and nothing remains queued behind it. A subscription that ends
+* having delivered NOTHING says so through {@link Fmp4Subscription.delivered};
+* the future delegate must not open an HDS stream it cannot feed.

+* Send a stream that FITS the rate HomeKit negotiated. (R5)
+*
+* The controller's own Receiver Reports, read on the live hub on 2026-08-06,
+* closed a year of guessing: one 19.27 s session on `615/mid` forwarded 737
+* video packets at `mtu=1378` — roughly **421 kbps** — against a negotiated
+* `max_bit_rate` of **299**, and iOS reported losing **450 of those 737
+* packets (61 %)**, worst fraction lost 51.2 %, peak jitter 3.03 s. Under
+* `-c:v copy` the accessory has no lever at all: it forwards whatever the
+* camera's encoder produces, at whatever cadence it produces it.
+*
+* So the fix has two halves, and this module owns both:
+*
+*   1. **Choose a slot that fits.** Among the slots that can be passed through
+*      (H.264) and whose rate is known to be within budget, the existing
+*      resolution-closest picker decides — so the "which slot serves which
+*      resolution" opinion stays single, exactly as D51 requires.
+*   2. **Transcode only when none does**, with a real cap
+*      (`-b:v` / `-maxrate` / `-bufsize`) at the negotiated rate.
+*
+* ## Where the authoritative rate comes from, and why it is NOT the obvious one
+*
+* `webrtcSession.listStreams` reports a `bitrateKbps` per slot and it is a
+* **measured flow rate**, which is meaningless for a slot nobody is consuming.
+* Live on 2026-08-06 it reported `mid = 9 kbps` for the very slot that had just
+* delivered ~421 kbps, `low = 5 kbps`, and `high = 5441 kbps` (high was being
+* consumed, hence plausible). Selecting on that reading would admit every slot.
+*
+* The authority is therefore the camera's **configured** encoder rate, from
+* `streamParams.getStatus` — `main` / `sub` / `ext`, each carrying the
+* `bitrate` the operator (or the vendor default) set. On 615 that is
+* `main 8192`, `sub 2048`, `ext 2048` kbps. It is mapped onto a profile slot
+* through the slot's assigned cam-stream, matched on resolution and frame
+* rate; an ambiguous or absent match is reported as **unknown**, never as a
+* number.
+*
+* This inverts D51's ordering — there, `measured` outranks `published` — and
+* the inversion is deliberate:
+*
+*   - a frame rate is a stable property of the source and a measurement of it
+*     is the *best* evidence;
+*   - a bitrate under VBR is an envelope. A measurement is a **lower bound**
+*     on it, and a lower bound can prove a slot does NOT fit but can never
+*     prove that it does.
+*
+* So `measured` is kept, and used only in the direction it is sound in.
+* Everything here is pure; the cap reads live in `stream-bitrate-probe.ts`.

+* window ({@link RATE_CONTROL_TIGHT}), the bitstream filter, and the Opus block
+* ({@link HAP_AUDIO_BASE}).

+* consumer: the payload types, the SSRCs (and their signed-int32 coercion), the

+* failure, and both live in the encode plan now. They are asserted by token
+* AND by position in `__tests__/stream-ffmpeg-argv.spec.ts`, on both the copy

+* either. Every other comment below records something learned the expensive

+/**
+* The ONE place a secondary service on the camera accessory gets its label.
+*
+* A "secondary service" here is a Switch or Lightbulb published alongside the
+* camera on the same accessory — the privacy switch, each accessory child
+* (siren, floodlight), each PTZ action. iOS Home renders these as their own
+* controls, and the operator has seen them as "Interruttore 1", "Interruttore
+* 2" through three separate rounds of fixes.
+*
+* ## Why `Name` alone cannot rename anything
+*
+* Two facts about hap-nodejs 2.1.7, both measured against the installed copy
+* rather than reasoned about:
+*
+*  1. `accessory.addService(Type, displayName, subtype)` ALREADY writes
+*     `displayName` to `Characteristic.Name` (`Service` constructor). So every
+*     round of this bug — including the one that moved the label onto
+*     `ConfiguredName` — shipped with `Name` correctly set. "iOS had no name
+*     to render" was never true.
+*  2. The mDNS configuration number (`c#`) is a sha1 over
+*     `internalHAPRepresentation(false)`, which OMITS characteristic VALUES.
+*     Changing the string in `Name` therefore does not bump `c#`, a paired
+*     controller gets no signal to re-read `/accessories`, and the name it
+*     cached at first enumeration stands forever.
+*
+* `Name` is also declared `pr` only — paired read, no write, no notify. It is
+* the seed a controller seeds its database from once; it is not a channel.
+*
+* ## Why `ConfiguredName`
+*
+* `ConfiguredName` (`000000E3`) is declared `pr | pw | ev` — the only name
+* characteristic a controller may write and may subscribe to. It is what iOS
+* 16+ reads for a service the user can rename, and adding it CHANGES the
+* accessory structure, so `c#` does bump and the controller re-reads.
+*
+* It was removed once because hap-nodejs logged
+*
+* ```
+* Characteristic not in required or optional characteristic section for
+* service Switch. Adding anyway.
+* ```
+*
+* That line is a WARNING, not a rejection: `Service.getCharacteristic` calls
+* `addCharacteristic` unconditionally and only then emits the warning. The
+* characteristic was always present and always published. hap-nodejs'
+* per-service optional lists simply predate `ConfiguredName` being valid on
+* any service.
+*
+* Registering it with {@link Service.addOptionalCharacteristic} first takes
+* the branch above the warning, so the accessory still builds with ZERO
+* characteristic warnings — which is what `service-naming.spec.ts` asserts.
+*
+* ## Scope
+*
+* Switch- and Lightbulb-shaped services only. `Service.MotionSensor` on a
+* camera accessory is not a separately named tile in iOS Home, so giving it a
+* writable name would be a guess, and this module does not guess.
+*/
+/**
+* Publish `name` as both the immutable `Name` and the controller-visible
+* `ConfiguredName` of `service`.

+*
+* ## The fragment length is the subtle one
+*
+* HKSV requires every media fragment to be **no longer** than the length the

+* key-frame cadence ([D80](../../../../docs/decisions/adr-0080.md)) — we do not
+* get to choose it, we can only be honest about it. So:
+*
+*  - when the camera reports its GOP (`stream-params`), the advertised length is
+*    the smallest offered value that COVERS it;
+*  - when it does not, we advertise the 4000 ms every HKSV camera uses and the
+*    delegate warns at `warn` with `tags: { deviceId }` if the fragments that

+* The two bounded memos HomeKit's decode path owns.
+*
+* ## Why they exist
+*
+* Everything D67 was actually about — one argv builder, one set of constants,
+* one hwaccel authority — HomeKit already had. What it did NOT have were the
+* two things the broker gained alongside them:
+*
+*  1. **A memo.** `probeDecoderHwaccel` issued a cross-process
+*     `decoder.getInfo` per SESSION. iOS starts sessions in bursts — one on
+*     record was started three times in 16 s — and every one of those paid a
+*     cap call on a hub whose main thread is the scarce resource.
+*  2. **Failure feedback.** When HomeKit's hardware child died at init and
+*     `shouldRetryInSoftware` saved the session, HomeKit told nobody. The next
+*     session re-picked the same corpse and paid the same two-second death.
+*     `EgressTranscodeManager` fixed exactly this for its own children
+*     (26a522cd5) by reporting the dead backend into the broker's 60 s memo.
+*
+* ## Both ride `HwAccelCache`, deliberately
+*
+* `createHwAccelCache` from `@camstack/types` is the primitive the broker's own
+* `egressHwAccelCache` is built from, and the discipline it encodes is the
+* point: **caller-owned, never a module global** — a module global would
+* outlive an addon respawn and survive an operator changing the decoder
+* backend. Same TTL as the broker's, so "has hardware come back yet" cannot
+* answer differently depending on which consumer asked.
+*
+* ## The cross-process gap, stated honestly
+*
+* These memos are scoped to the `export-hap` PROCESS. When HomeKit's vaapi
+* child dies, the broker's next child still pays its own two-second death, and
+* vice versa — because addons may never import each other and there is no
+* capability for "this backend is dead on this node right now". Closing that
+* would need a new cap surface, which Phase 0 explicitly does not take. What is
+* closed here is HomeKit's own repetition of the cost, across cameras and
+* across sessions.
+*/

+* The window both memos answer for.
+*
+* 60 s, the same as `stream-broker-manager`'s `egressHwAccelCache`. Long enough
