### MediaIo.ofUrl(NSURL)

Source: https://github.com/yuroyami/kiteplayer/blob/main/docs/module-contract.md

Creates a MediaIoFactory for reading a file URL on Apple platforms. It starts the URL's security scope when opening and stops it when closing.

```APIDOC
## MediaIo.ofUrl(NSURL)

### Description
Creates a `MediaIoFactory` for reading a file URL on Apple platforms. It starts the URL's security scope when opening and stops it when closing, so a file from the document picker needs no cleanup from the caller.

### Method
Factory function

### Parameters
- **url** (NSURL) - Required - The file URL to read.

### Returns
- **MediaIoFactory** - A factory that opens the file for each read.

### Exceptions
- **MediaIoException** - Thrown when the file cannot be opened.
```

--------------------------------

### SubtitleTypesetter

Source: https://github.com/yuroyami/kiteplayer/blob/main/docs/spi-cookbook.md

Optional seam for subtitle rendering. Implement the interface, wrap it in a SubtitleTypesetterProvider with a stable id, and install the provider.

```APIDOC
## SubtitleTypesetter

### Description
Optional seam for subtitle rendering. Implement the interface, wrap it in a SubtitleTypesetterProvider with a stable id, and install the provider the way the transport providers install: a META-INF/services entry on the JVM and Android, an eagerly initialised SubtitleTypesetters.register(...) on native and the web.

### Methods
- Opens a track from the container header or a whole script.
- Adds one event per packet in the Matroska form.
- Clears events on a seek.
- Renders once per video frame while playing.

### render
- Returns null when the picture is what it was; the engine republishes nothing for that answer, which keeps the cadence cheap.
- Returns an empty list when the picture became nothing.
- The images returned are positioned in the output surface's pixels and are owned by the engine from then on, so never reuse their byte arrays.

### Threading
- The engine calls every member from one lane and never concurrently, so hold no lock.

### Implementations
- kiteplayer-libass is the one implementation.
```

--------------------------------

### MediaIo.ofAsset(AssetManager, String)

Source: https://github.com/yuroyami/kiteplayer/blob/main/docs/module-contract.md

Creates a MediaIoFactory that plays a file from the app's assets directory on Android. Each open gets a new descriptor from the asset manager and reads by position.

```APIDOC
## MediaIo.ofAsset(AssetManager, String)

### Description
Creates a `MediaIoFactory` that plays a file from the app's `assets` directory on Android. Each open gets a new descriptor from the asset manager and reads by position, so a reopen never moves a descriptor that the caller holds.

### Method
Factory function

### Parameters
- **assetManager** (AssetManager) - Required - The asset manager to use.
- **assetName** (String) - Required - The name of the asset file.

### Returns
- **MediaIoFactory** - A factory that opens the asset for each read.

### Notes
- An asset is a window inside the app package, and the door reads only that window.
- An asset must be stored uncompressed; the Android build already stores common media extensions that way.
```

--------------------------------

### MediaIo.ofUri(ContentResolver, Uri)

Source: https://github.com/yuroyami/kiteplayer/blob/main/docs/module-contract.md

Creates a MediaIoFactory that plays what a content provider serves on Android, such as a file from the system picker. Each open gets a new descriptor from the provider and reads by position.

```APIDOC
## MediaIo.ofUri(ContentResolver, Uri)

### Description
Creates a `MediaIoFactory` that plays what a content provider serves on Android, such as a file from the system picker. Each open gets a new descriptor from the provider and reads by position, so a reopen never moves a descriptor that the caller holds.

### Method
Factory function

### Parameters
- **contentResolver** (ContentResolver) - Required - The content resolver to use.
- **uri** (Uri) - Required - The content URI to read.

### Returns
- **MediaIoFactory** - A factory that opens the content for each read.

### Notes
- A provider that answers with a pipe plays forward only.
```

--------------------------------

### Declare a layered drawing's drives with mappingOf

Source: https://github.com/yuroyami/kiteplayer/blob/main/docs/audioviz-mapping-api.md

A layered drawing declares its drives through mappingOf, which fills in what the drawing needs and can give up from the drawing itself. The example shows a mapping with four VizDrive entries, each combining a driver, property, optional curve, and response.

```kotlin
override val mapping: VizMapping by mappingOf(
    VizDrive(VizDriver.Bands, VizProperty.Size),
    VizDrive(VizDriver.BodyHit, VizProperty.Spawn, VizCurve.Scaled, VizResponse.lifetime(1.6f)),
    VizDrive(VizDriver.Drop, VizProperty.Shape, VizCurve.Discrete, VizResponse.envelope(0.2f)),
    VizDrive(VizDriver.Pulse, VizProperty.Speed, response = VizResponse.Rate),
)
```

--------------------------------

### Progress.firstTimeOfDayMillis and Progress.lastTimeOfDayMillis

Source: https://github.com/yuroyami/kiteplayer/blob/main/docs/module-contract.md

Returns the earliest and latest moments the stream lists, representing the start and end of the latest playlist. For recordings, these are the edges of the seekable range; for live streams, they indicate the listed window and the live edge.

```APIDOC
## Progress.firstTimeOfDayMillis and Progress.lastTimeOfDayMillis

### Description
Returns the earliest and latest moments the stream lists, as milliseconds since 1970 UTC, or null if unavailable. For recordings, they are the edges of the seekable range; for live streams, they indicate the listed window and the live edge.

### Properties
- `val Progress.firstTimeOfDayMillis: Long?`
- `val Progress.lastTimeOfDayMillis: Long?`

### Returns
- **Long?** - The earliest (first) or latest (last) time of day in milliseconds since 1970 UTC, or null if unavailable.
```

--------------------------------

### scanAudio (generic)

Source: https://github.com/yuroyami/kiteplayer/blob/main/docs/audioviz-song-scan-api.md

Scans audio from a media item using a specified backend, decoding without playing. It opens its own backend session, selects an audio stream, and decodes from start to end, handing interleaved buffers to the sink.

```APIDOC
## scanAudio (generic)

### Description
Scans audio from a media item using a specified backend, decoding without playing. It opens its own backend session, selects an audio stream, and decodes from start to end, handing interleaved buffers to the sink.

### Method
suspend fun scanAudio(media: MediaItem, backend: MediaBackend, track: TrackId? = null, range: AudioScanRange? = null, sink: AudioScanSink): AudioScanResult

### Parameters
- **media** (MediaItem) - Required - The media item to scan.
- **backend** (MediaBackend) - Required - The backend to use for decoding.
- **track** (TrackId?) - Optional - The audio stream to scan. Null picks the default stream: the container's default ordinary track, else the first ordinary track, else the first audio track.
- **range** (AudioScanRange?) - Optional - Scans one stretch of the stream instead of all of it. Null scans all of it.
- **sink** (AudioScanSink) - Required - The sink that receives decoded audio buffers. Can be passed as a trailing lambda.

### Returns
AudioScanResult - Reports the stream scanned, the frames decoded, the first timestamp, the end of the last block, and whether the stream's end was reached.

### Behavior
- Opens its own backend session, selects one audio stream, creates a decoder from the same factory list in the same order as playback, and decodes from start to end.
- Interleaves each decoded buffer the way the playback feed does and hands it to the sink with the decoder's timestamp.
- Opens no audio output and never touches the reader of a playing session.
- The call blocks on reads in the caller's context. Call it from a context that may block.
- Cancel the calling coroutine to stop it. The decoder, the session and its reader are closed before the call returns or throws.
```

     io.github.yuroyami.kiteplayer.sample.desktop.ShaderBenchmarkKt
```

--------------------------------

### Test a backend through the public API with KitePlayer

Source: https://github.com/yuroyami/kiteplayer/blob/main/docs/spi-cookbook.md

Builds a player with a custom backend and a desktop output backend, plays a media item to completion, and asserts that all handles handed to the engine were closed. Runs in real time and requires an audio device when the file has sound. The `openHandles` counter is your own ledger that must be decremented in `close`.

```kotlin
@Test
fun myBackendPlaysAFileToTheEnd() = runBlocking {
    val backend = MyMediaBackend()
    KitePlayer.create(PlayerConfig(backends = Backends(backend, DesktopOutputBackend))).use { player ->
        player.open(MediaItem("my://five-seconds"))
        player.play()
        withTimeout(30.seconds) { player.state.first { it.status == PlaybackStatus.Ended } }
    }
    assertEquals(0, backend.openHandles, "the engine closes everything it was handed")
}
```

--------------------------------

### Run the measurement via Gradle

Source: https://github.com/yuroyami/kiteplayer/blob/main/kiteplayer-sample-desktop/MEASUREMENTS.md

Runs the measurement through Gradle, setting the measurement flag, frame count, and repeat count via project properties.

  -Pkiteplayer.sample.measure -Pkiteplayer.sample.frames=320 -Pkiteplayer.sample.repeats=4
```

--------------------------------

### Create fileSegmentStore and configure player

Source: https://github.com/yuroyami/kiteplayer/blob/main/docs/segment-cache.md

Creates a file-based segment store with a directory and size limit, then passes it to the player via NetworkConfig.segmentStore. The store is off by default; without it, the player sends the same requests as before. fileSegmentStore returns null in a browser or when the directory cannot be used, which is safe to pass on. Close the store when the application is done with it; the player never closes it.

```kotlin
val store = fileSegmentStore(
    directory = "$cacheDirectory/kite-segments",
    maxBytes = 512L * 1024 * 1024,
)

val player = KitePlayer.create(
    PlayerConfig(network = NetworkConfig(segmentStore = store)),
)
```

--------------------------------

### Development Workflow Scripts

Source: https://github.com/yuroyami/kiteplayer/blob/main/README.md

./scripts/check-gate.sh tier1   # the checks every change runs
```

--------------------------------

### Run the scripted backend with CoreHarness in virtual time

Source: https://github.com/yuroyami/kiteplayer/blob/main/docs/spi-cookbook.md

Uses the repository's own test fake, CoreHarness, to run a full playback session in milliseconds of virtual time. The harness opens a scripted media item, plays it, and asserts the final status is Ended. This is only available inside the repository, not for external projects.

```kotlin
val harness = CoreHarness(this)          // in a runTest block
harness.openWithRenderer()               // open scripted://media, first frame presented, Paused
harness.core.play()
harness.run(2.seconds)                   // virtual: the whole file plays in wall-microseconds
assertEquals(PlaybackStatus.Ended, harness.core.snapshots.value.status)
```

--------------------------------

### KitePlayerMediaSession(player, skipInterval = 15.seconds)

Source: https://github.com/yuroyami/kiteplayer/blob/main/docs/module-contract.md

Creates a media session for Apple platforms. The session manages Now Playing metadata, transport controls, and interruption policies.

```APIDOC
## KitePlayerMediaSession(player, skipInterval = 15.seconds)

### Description
Creates a media session for Apple platforms. The session manages Now Playing metadata, transport controls, and interruption policies.

### Method
Constructor

### Parameters
- **player** - Required - The player instance.
- **skipInterval** - Optional - Defaults to 15.seconds. Must be positive; invalid nonpositive values are refused before registering a system handler.

### Notes
- Construction belongs to the main thread.
- One process has one Now Playing owner. A new successfully registered session takes ownership, retires the previous owner's command targets, and leaves the previous player's transport alone.
- The previous session keeps its policy subscriptions until it closes.
- A setup failure removes every handler acquired so far.
- The session returned by attachMediaSession closes with its player.
```

--------------------------------

### RecordingCapable

Source: https://github.com/yuroyami/kiteplayer/blob/main/docs/spi-cookbook.md

Optional interface on the source that enables KitePlayer.startRecording. Implement startRecording, stopRecording, and recordingPath to support recording.

```APIDOC
## RecordingCapable

### Description
Optional interface on the source. Implement it to enable KitePlayer.startRecording. Without it, that call throws UnsupportedOperationException.

### Methods

#### startRecording(path)
- **path** (string) - Required - The file path where packets will be copied.
- Starts copying the packets your source reads into a file.

#### stopRecording()
- Finishes the file. Closing the source also finishes the recording.

#### recordingPath
- Property that is null when no recording runs.

### Threading and Locking
- The engine calls these three members from its own thread while the demux worker reads, so guard the recording state with a lock.
- The engine ends a recording before it seeks or retires the session, so a file never gets a jump in it.

### Implementations
- ScriptedRecordingSource logs the calls and writes nothing.
- SourceRecorder in kiteplayer-ffmpeg is the real one, and it writes Matroska with no re-encode.
```

--------------------------------

### Build per-target archives with Gradle

--------------------------------

### Run network verification per target with --run and --target

Source: https://github.com/yuroyami/kiteplayer/blob/main/verification/network-consumer/README.md

Runs the selected target against a server on the host. Android uses 10.0.2.2 as the emulator's host alias; a physical device needs a reachable server address. For TLS use an HTTPS URL with a valid trusted certificate and nonempty response. --target all requires an iOS simulator, and Android joins only when --android-serial is set.

```bash
scripts/verify-network-distribution.sh --run --target jvm --url http://localhost:8765/media
scripts/verify-network-distribution.sh --run --target macos --url http://localhost:8765/media
scripts/verify-network-distribution.sh --run --target ios --simulator UDID --url http://localhost:8765/media

### SpectrumTimeline.eventCursor()

Source: https://github.com/yuroyami/kiteplayer/blob/main/docs/audioviz-events-api.md

Creates a cursor for one consumer to sample events in a time range. The cursor delivers retained events in (previousMediaTime, currentMediaTime] in sequence order, without repetition, and independent cursors do not consume each other's events.

```APIDOC
## SpectrumTimeline.eventCursor()

### Description
Creates a cursor for one consumer to sample events in a time range. The cursor delivers retained events in (previousMediaTime, currentMediaTime] in sequence order, without repetition, and independent cursors do not consume each other's events.

### Method
Create cursor

### Parameters
None

### Returns
A cursor object with a `sample` method.

### Cursor.sample(currentMediaTime)

#### Description
Delivers every retained event in (previousMediaTime, currentMediaTime] in sequence order, including multiple hits of one kind. Sampling again does not repeat them.

#### Parameters
- **currentMediaTime** (number) - Required - The current media time in seconds.

#### Behavior
- Events are delivered in sequence order.
- Multiple hits of one kind are delivered.
- Sampling again does not repeat events.
- Independent cursors do not consume one another's events.

### Lateness Handling
- If a detection arrives after a cursor has passed its original time, the cursor offers it once with its lateness when that lateness is within its source's budget: 30 ms for a transient and 3 s for a structural confirmation.
- Older late detections are discarded and counted.
- Budget is in media time; presentation-time lateness also depends on playback rate and output route.
- An on-time event inside the normal display interval is not classified as a late arrival merely because its timestamp precedes the current frame's time.

### Reset Conditions
The cursor resets at the current time under the following conditions:
- Initial attachment
- Explicit reset
- Changed history
- Backward media movement
- Media-time advance over 250 ms
- Overwritten unread event

On reset, it discards missed past bursts and preserves future events.

### Paused Sampling
Paused sampling advances the discard boundary without emitting events. Detections that arrive later but predate this boundary are also counted as discarded. No event is retimed to the current frame to hide lateness.
```

### MediaIo.ofBytes(bytes)

Source: https://github.com/yuroyami/kiteplayer/blob/main/docs/module-contract.md

Creates a MediaIoFactory that reads from an in-memory byte array. Each open owns an independent cursor and close state. The reader is seekable, reports its size, and rejects reads and seeks after close.

```APIDOC
## MediaIo.ofBytes(bytes)

### Description
Creates a `MediaIoFactory` in `kiteplayer-core` that reads from an in-memory byte array. Each open owns an independent cursor and close state over the original array. No copy is made; the caller must keep the bytes unchanged while a reader is open.

### Method
Factory function

### Parameters
- **bytes** (ByteArray) - Required - The byte array to read from.

### Behavior
- The reader is seekable and reports its size.
- Accepts positions from zero through size.
- Rejects reads and seeks after close.
- Invalid destination slices and seek positions throw `IllegalArgumentException` without moving the cursor.
- Empty reads return zero, including at EOF; other EOF reads return -1.

### Returns
- **MediaIoFactory** - A factory that creates readers over the given byte array.
```

--------------------------------

import io.github.yuroyami.kiteplayer.session.MediaNotificationOptions
import io.github.yuroyami.kiteplayer.session.attachMediaSession

player.attachMediaSession(context, MediaNotificationOptions(smallIcon = R.drawable.ic_notification))
```

--------------------------------

### KitePlayer.attachMediaSession(background = ContinueAudio, interruptions = InterruptionPolicy(), pictureInPicture = null, skipInterval = 15.seconds)

Source: https://github.com/yuroyami/kiteplayer/blob/main/docs/module-contract.md

Attaches a media session to a KitePlayer instance. Returns a KitePlayerMediaSession that closes with the player.

```APIDOC
## KitePlayer.attachMediaSession(background = ContinueAudio, interruptions = InterruptionPolicy(), pictureInPicture = null, skipInterval = 15.seconds)

### Description
Attaches a media session to a KitePlayer instance. Returns a KitePlayerMediaSession that closes with the player.

### Method
attachMediaSession

### Parameters
- **background** - Optional - Defaults to ContinueAudio. The background behavior.
- **interruptions** - Optional - Defaults to InterruptionPolicy(). The interruption policy.
- **pictureInPicture** - Optional - Defaults to null. Picture-in-picture configuration.
- **skipInterval** - Optional - Defaults to 15.seconds. Must be positive; invalid nonpositive values are refused before registering a system handler.

### Returns
- **KitePlayerMediaSession** - The attached media session.

### Notes
- Construction belongs to the main thread.
- One process has one Now Playing owner. A new successfully registered session takes ownership, retires the previous owner's command targets, and leaves the previous player's transport alone.
- The previous session keeps its policy subscriptions until it closes.
- A setup failure removes every handler acquired so far.
- The session returned by attachMediaSession closes with its player.
