James RussoandClaude Opus 4.7 686e45dac0 fix(engine): suppress font-load 404s by checking console location URL (#313)
Chrome's "Failed to load resource" message text does not include the failing
URL — it's only on msg.location().url. The previous filter in frameCapture.ts
only checked msg.text(), so every font 404 (e.g. Google Fonts <link> tags
in sandboxed render environments) fell through to the "[non-blocking]"
prefix instead of being suppressed.

Extract the classifier into isFontResourceError() and match against both
text and location.url, and extend the extension match to .ttf/.otf. Adds
a unit test covering the URL-in-location, URL-in-text, and non-font cases.

This is a targeted fix for the render-output noise that PR #311 attempted
to address by adding a ~120-entry SYSTEM_FONTS skip list. That approach
silently shadowed existing FONT_ALIASES (arial→inter, helvetica→inter,
courier new→jetbrains-mono, segoe ui→roboto, etc.) and changed render
output on Linux fleets that don't have those fonts installed. Fixing the
console-log filter here suppresses the noise without changing any font
resolution behavior.

@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.
