- *   - the decoders (`media.cpp`, backed by FFmpeg + SDL audio);
+ *   - the optional decoders the `media` extension installs (the engine's
+ *     `media.cpp` dispatch; FFmpeg itself lives in `runtime/ext_media/`);
  *   - the renderer (`renderer_image.cpp`), which owns the GPU textures.
  *
+ * It also provides the SDL audio sink the decoder writes PCM to, which keeps
+ * SDL out of `media.a`.

  * The frame loop calls `xt_gui_media_sync` (open/close decoders so the next
  * layout sees the current sources and intrinsic sizes) and `xt_gui_media_tick`
  * (decode for the elapsed wall clock and fire the resulting DOM events) once

 /*
- * xbintsc GUI engine — `<video>`/`<audio>` decoding.
+ * xbintsc GUI engine — media decoder dispatch.
  *
- * This translation unit is the only place that knows about FFmpeg. It is built
- * with `-DXT_GUI_WITH_FFMPEG=1` when `scripts/build-gui.ts` managed to build a
- * minimal static FFmpeg; without it `MediaPlayer::open` always fails and the
- * rest of the engine still compiles and runs (the element simply reports an
- * `error` event).
+ * The engine models `<video>`/`<audio>` elements, but the decoder is an
+ * optional backend supplied by the separate `media` extension. That backend
+ * installs its table through `xt_media_install` from a bridge object that is
+ * linked directly when the extension is enabled (see
+ * `runtime/ext_media/media_bridge.c`), so this translation unit stays tiny and
+ * FFmpeg-free.
  *
- * Threading: the engine is single-threaded and its values live on the main
- * thread, so nothing here may run on an SDL audio callback. Instead the SDL
- * audio device is opened with a *null* callback (push mode): `tick()` decodes
- * PCM on the main thread and `SDL_PutAudioStreamData`s it, and SDL pulls from
- * the queued buffer on its own thread. `queued_seconds()` keeps the buffer
- * shallow so there is no unbounded latency.
+ * A program built with `--ext gui` alone leaves `g_api` null. `MediaPlayer::open`
+ * then fails with an actionable message and the element fires `error`, exactly
+ * as it does for an unreadable file. Nothing here touches GUI state, so it can
+ * be compiled independently of SDL and the renderer.
