* feat(studio): typed audio values, clip fades, audible video drops Audio rows in the media inspector (Volume, Speed, Media start) take a typed value: click the readout, type "-6 dB", "1.5x" or "2.5s", Enter. Speed presets are hidden on <audio> clips. Clip-edge fades: data-fade-in / data-fade-out in seconds, honoured by the preview runtime (per-tick gain), the render mixer (afade after volume) and Studio (Fade in / Fade out rows, and drag dots at the top corners of audio clips and audible videos). Linear on both sides so preview and render agree; fades that outrun the clip scale to meet inside it. Dropped videos with an audio stream now land with data-has-audio="true" instead of muted, so the mixer keeps their sound. The media metadata endpoint reports hasAudio from the ffprobe call it already makes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(audio): one owner for fades, dB, and afade-after-volume Illegal fade values become no-fade at fadeGain; typed inspector input still returns null so the readout stays red. Master and group mixes share one filter chain with volume then afade. Fade-out stays anchored to the trimmed clip end. * fix(studio): share audio helpers and bound typed media values * fix(studio): reserve sibling fade duration when editing --------- Co-authored-by: Jake Moran <jakemoran2011@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> Co-authored-by: Miguel Angel Simon Sierra <miguel.sierra@heygen.com>
hyperframes
CLI for creating, previewing, and rendering HTML video compositions.
Install
npm install -g hyperframes
Or use directly with npx:
npx hyperframes <command>
Requirements: Node.js >= 22, FFmpeg
Commands
init
Scaffold a new Hyperframes project from a template:
npx hyperframes init my-video
cd my-video
preview
Start the live preview studio in your browser:
npx hyperframes preview
# Studio: http://localhost:3002/#project/my-video
# Server: http://localhost:3002
npx hyperframes preview --port 4567
In an interactive terminal, the preview stays attached until you press
Ctrl+C. In a non-interactive shell such as a coding-agent session, the same
command starts a managed preview that survives after the command returns. Use
--background or --foreground to choose explicitly, and manage persistent
previews with --status, --stop, --list, and --kill-all. Add --json to
managed lifecycle commands for machine-readable output. --foreground --json
prints the ready-session envelope once, then remains attached until stopped.
normalize-audio
Measure two local authored audio clips with integrated LUFS and match the target
to the unchanged reference. The command is a dry run unless --write is passed:
npx hyperframes normalize-audio --reference target-audio --target user-audio
npx hyperframes normalize-audio --reference target-audio --target user-audio --write
It updates only the target element's data-volume and refuses unsafe boosts
that exceed Studio's +12 dB ceiling or would clip.
render
Render a composition to MP4. Run from the project directory; the positional
argument is the project directory (not a file), so render the project's
index.html directly, or point at a specific composition file with -c:
npx hyperframes render -o output.mp4
npx hyperframes render -c ./my-composition.html -o output.mp4
Set HYPERFRAMES_RENDER_DETACHED=1 when starting a render with nohup or
disown so it keeps running after the invoking shell exits.
publish
Upload a project directory and get a hosted URL that keeps working after the CLI exits. Published projects are private by default:
npx hyperframes publish
npx hyperframes publish ./my-video
npx hyperframes publish --public
npx hyperframes publish --yes
Signed-out publishing returns an authentication-required claim URL; opening it
lets someone sign in and claim the project. Sign in first with
npx hyperframes auth login to publish an owned project you can update. Use
--public to make the claimed project visible to anyone. --yes only skips the
confirmation prompt and does not change visibility.
Signed-in publishers can use --update <url-or-id> to target an existing project
or --space <space-id> to publish into a shared team space. If the requested
project is missing or inaccessible, publishing can create a new project instead;
check the printed URL and status.
See the publish reference for all options, including video proxy settings.
lint
Validate your Hyperframes HTML:
npx hyperframes lint ./my-composition
npx hyperframes lint ./my-composition --json # JSON output for CI/tooling
npx hyperframes lint ./my-composition --verbose # Include info-level findings
By default only errors and warnings are shown. Use --verbose to also display informational findings (e.g., external script dependency notices). Use --json for machine-readable output with errorCount, warningCount, infoCount, and a findings array.
compositions
List compositions found in the current project:
npx hyperframes compositions
benchmark
Run rendering benchmarks:
npx hyperframes benchmark ./my-composition.html
doctor
Check your environment for required dependencies (Chrome, FFmpeg, Node.js):
npx hyperframes doctor
browser
Manage the bundled Chrome/Chromium installation:
npx hyperframes browser
info
Print version and environment info:
npx hyperframes info
docs
Open the documentation in your browser:
npx hyperframes docs
upgrade
Check for updates and show upgrade instructions:
npx hyperframes upgrade
npx hyperframes upgrade --check --json # machine-readable for agents
