Miguel Ángel 764755b23e fix(runtime): tighten audio drift correction to ~80ms for narration use cases
Adds a strict sync tier to the runtime-owned media path that catches
accumulated drift from repeated pause/play toggling. Previously, drift
below 0.5s persisted indefinitely (only the 3s catastrophic valve would
correct it). For speech-driven videos where narration, captions, and
visual timing need to stay aligned, this caused audible desync.

The fix adds three mechanisms:

1. **Strict sync (80ms, consecutive-sample gated)**: when the timeline-
   to-media offset has stabilized (not growing from initial buffering)
   and drift exceeds 80ms for 2 consecutive ticks, force a currentTime
   correction. This mirrors the parent-proxy path's 50ms threshold with
   consecutive-sample gating (MIRROR_DRIFT_THRESHOLD_SECONDS).

2. **forceSync on transitions**: play/pause toggles, seek, and playback-
   rate changes set a one-shot flag that forces an immediate sync on the
   next tick, bypassing all thresholds. This prevents drift from
   accumulating across pause/play cycles.

3. **Buffering guard**: strict sync only fires when the offset has
   stabilized (delta < 4ms/tick). During initial buffering, the offset
   grows ~16ms/tick as the timeline advances while media stays at 0 —
   this gradual growth is not corrected, preserving the existing behavior
   of not skipping opening audio.

Closes #668

@hyperframes/core

Types, parsers, generators, compiler, linter, runtime, and frame adapters for the Hyperframes video framework.

Install

npm install @hyperframes/core

Most users don't need to install core directly — the CLI, producer, and studio packages depend on it internally.

What's inside

Module Description
Types TimelineElement, CompositionSpec, Asset, canvas dimensions, defaults
Parsers parseHtml — extract timeline elements from HTML; parseGsapScript — parse GSAP animations
Generators generateHyperframesHtml — produce valid Hyperframes HTML from a composition spec
Compiler compileTimingAttrs — resolve data-start / data-duration into absolute times
Linter lintHyperframeHtml — validate Hyperframes HTML (missing attributes, overlapping tracks, etc.)
Runtime IIFE script injected into the browser — manages seek, media playback, and the window.__hf protocol
Frame Adapters Pluggable animation drivers (GSAP, Lottie, CSS, or custom)

Frame Adapters

A frame adapter tells the engine how to seek your animation to a specific frame:

import { createGSAPFrameAdapter } from "@hyperframes/core";

const adapter = createGSAPFrameAdapter({
  getTimeline: () => gsap.timeline(),
  compositionId: "my-video",
});

Implement FrameAdapter for custom animation runtimes:

import type { FrameAdapter } from "@hyperframes/core";

const myAdapter: FrameAdapter = {
  id: "my-adapter",
  getDurationFrames: () => 300,
  seekFrame: (frame) => {
    /* seek your animation */
  },
};

Parsing and generating HTML

import { parseHtml, generateHyperframesHtml } from "@hyperframes/core";

const { elements, metadata } = parseHtml(htmlString);
const html = generateHyperframesHtml(spec);

Linting

import { lintHyperframeHtml } from "@hyperframes/core/lint";

const result = lintHyperframeHtml(htmlString);
// result.findings: { severity, message, elementId }[]
