## Summary
**Original 5 bugs fixed:**
- **Bug 1 — Audio silent after seek**: Added `Accept-Ranges` / `Content-Length` + `206 Partial Content` to the static asset server for byte-range seeking.
- **Bug 2 — Download 404 after restart**: Render list endpoint now registers on-disk renders into the in-memory job map.
- **Bug 3 — Timeline stops at GSAP end**: `resolveRootTimelineFromDocument` pads the GSAP timeline to match `data-duration` when the composition declares longer.
- **Bug 4 — Render stuck at 0%**: Store `jobState` reference (not spread copy) so async progress mutations reach the SSE stream.
- **Bug 5 — Lottie missing in preview/render**: Two fixes — (a) moved Lottie adapter before GSAP so `onUpdate` wins; (b) fixed bundler silently dropping external CDN `\<script src>` tags from sub-compositions (root cause: `$content(s).html()` returns `""` for external scripts).
**3 additional bugs fixed:**
- **Bug 6 — Blank thumbnails outside monorepo**: Implemented `generateThumbnail` in the CLI adapter using Puppeteer.
- **Bug 7 — Video empty in rendered sub-compositions**: Fixed `parseVideoElements` selector from `video[id][src]` to `video[src][data-start]` + auto-assign IDs.
- **Render errors**: Failed renders now show their error message in the renders panel.

## Test plan
- [x] `golden-lyric-video`: seek → audio plays from seeked position
- [x] Any project: render → progress advances past 0%, reaches 100%
- [x] Any project: complete render, restart `hyperframes dev`, Download → works
- [x] `intro-vid`: play → runs full 5s (not stopping at 3s)
- [x] `hyperframe-build-up-demo`: play → rocket Lottie visible during 0-2s ✅ verified
- [x] Outside monorepo: Compositions sidebar shows thumbnail images (not blank)
- [x] `bug.zip` project: render → video in polaroid sub-composition appears in output
- [x] Trigger a failed render → error message shown
@hyperframes/engine
Seekable web-page-to-video rendering engine built on Puppeteer and FFmpeg.
Framework-agnostic: works with GSAP, Lottie, Three.js, CSS animations, or any web content that implements the window.__hf seek protocol.
Install
npm install @hyperframes/engine
Requirements: Node.js >= 22, Chrome/Chromium (auto-downloaded by Puppeteer), FFmpeg
What it does
The engine opens your HTML composition in a headless Chrome instance, seeks frame-by-frame using Chrome's HeadlessExperimental.beginFrame API, captures screenshots, and encodes them into video with FFmpeg.
Key services
| Service | Description |
|---|---|
| browserManager | Launches and pools headless Chrome instances (chrome-headless-shell) |
| frameCapture | Manages capture sessions — seek, screenshot, buffer lifecycle |
| screenshotService | BeginFrame-based capture with CDP (Chrome DevTools Protocol) |
| chunkEncoder | FFmpeg encoding with chunked concat, GPU detection, faststart |
| streamingEncoder | Pipe frames to FFmpeg in real time (no intermediate PNGs on disk) |
| audioMixer | Parse <audio> elements and mix audio tracks via FFmpeg |
| videoFrameExtractor | Extract frames from <video> elements for compositing |
| parallelCoordinator | Split frame ranges across worker processes |
| fileServer | Serve local HTML files to the browser via Hono |
Usage
import {
acquireBrowser,
releaseBrowser,
createCaptureSession,
initializeSession,
captureFrame,
closeCaptureSession,
} from "@hyperframes/engine";
// 1. Launch browser
const browser = await acquireBrowser({ captureMode: "beginFrame" });
// 2. Open a capture session
const session = createCaptureSession({
browser: browser.browser,
url: "http://localhost:3000/my-composition.html",
width: 1920,
height: 1080,
fps: 30,
});
await initializeSession(session);
// 3. Capture frames
for (let i = 0; i < totalFrames; i++) {
await captureFrame(session, i, `/tmp/frames/frame-${i}.png`);
}
// 4. Clean up
await closeCaptureSession(session);
await releaseBrowser(browser);
Most users should use @hyperframes/producer or the hyperframes CLI instead of calling the engine directly.
