Three independently ugly bugs that all fed the same log flood:
* Electron's `WebFrameMain.send` writes every "Render frame was disposed"
to stderr via `console.error`. When the worker fans a second
agent-event past a reloading renderer, we produced thousands of
identical lines and stalled the main loop on stderr I/O. Added a
`mainFrame.detached` guard so the send is short-circuited before
Electron's own catch block fires, and installed a targeted filter in
`suppress-warnings.ts` (now actually imported from the entry point)
so the specific `console.error("Error sending from webFrameMain:"…)`
noise never reaches the terminal. Any other payload still surfaces.
* `dispatchAgentMessage` accepted the human-reader sentinel as a wake
target when an agent replied to `__board__` — `wakeAgentIfPossible`
then called `db.getAgent("__board__")`, threw, and the dispatcher
kept repeating on every send. Strip `HUMAN_SENDER_ID` at
`resolveMessageWakeTargets`, and keep a defense-in-depth guard in the
heartbeat so a stray caller (future automation fan-out) cannot
reintroduce the crash.
* Pi's skills loader rejects any SKILL.md whose frontmatter `name`
diverges from its parent directory. The four bundled `my-writing-style`
copies declared `name: writing-style-skill`, so every install emitted
a warning and dropped the skill. They also lived as orphan gitlinks
(mode 160000 without .gitmodules), and the global `*.md` gitignore
hid every other SKILL.md from version control. Fixed the frontmatter
to match the dir, converted the dangling submodules to plain trees,
and allowlisted `builtin-skills/**/*.md` so a fresh clone carries the
catalogue instead of silently losing it.

# Using videos in Remotion
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
First, the @remotion/media package needs to be installed.
|
|
If it is not, use the following command:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npx remotion add @remotion/media # If project uses npm
|
|
bunx remotion add @remotion/media # If project uses bun
|
|
yarn remotion add @remotion/media # If project uses yarn
|
|
pnpm exec remotion add @remotion/media # If project uses pnpm
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Use `<Video>` from `@remotion/media` to embed videos into your composition.
|
|
|
|
```tsx
|
|
import { Video } from "@remotion/media";
|
|
import { staticFile } from "remotion";
|
|
|
|
export const MyComposition = () => {
|
|
return <Video src={staticFile("video.mp4")} />;
|
|
};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Remote URLs are also supported:
|
|
|
|
```tsx
|
|
<Video src="https://remotion.media/video.mp4" />
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Trimming
|
|
|
|
Use `trimBefore` and `trimAfter` to remove portions of the video. Values are in seconds.
|
|
|
|
```tsx
|
|
const { fps } = useVideoConfig();
|
|
|
|
return (
|
|
<Video
|
|
src={staticFile("video.mp4")}
|
|
trimBefore={2 * fps} // Skip the first 2 seconds
|
|
trimAfter={10 * fps} // End at the 10 second mark
|
|
/>
|
|
);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Delaying
|
|
|
|
Wrap the video in a `<Sequence>` to delay when it appears:
|
|
|
|
```tsx
|
|
import { Sequence, staticFile } from "remotion";
|
|
import { Video } from "@remotion/media";
|
|
|
|
const { fps } = useVideoConfig();
|
|
|
|
return (
|
|
<Sequence from={1 * fps}>
|
|
<Video src={staticFile("video.mp4")} />
|
|
</Sequence>
|
|
);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The video will appear after 1 second.
|
|
|
|
## Sizing and Position
|
|
|
|
Use the `style` prop to control size and position:
|
|
|
|
```tsx
|
|
<Video
|
|
src={staticFile("video.mp4")}
|
|
style={{
|
|
width: 500,
|
|
height: 300,
|
|
position: "absolute",
|
|
top: 100,
|
|
left: 50,
|
|
objectFit: "cover",
|
|
}}
|
|
/>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Volume
|
|
|
|
Set a static volume (0 to 1):
|
|
|
|
```tsx
|
|
<Video src={staticFile("video.mp4")} volume={0.5} />
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or use a callback for dynamic volume based on the current frame:
|
|
|
|
```tsx
|
|
import { interpolate } from "remotion";
|
|
|
|
const { fps } = useVideoConfig();
|
|
|
|
return (
|
|
<Video
|
|
src={staticFile("video.mp4")}
|
|
volume={(f) =>
|
|
interpolate(f, [0, 1 * fps], [0, 1], { extrapolateRight: "clamp" })
|
|
}
|
|
/>
|
|
);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Use `muted` to silence the video entirely:
|
|
|
|
```tsx
|
|
<Video src={staticFile("video.mp4")} muted />
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Speed
|
|
|
|
Use `playbackRate` to change the playback speed:
|
|
|
|
```tsx
|
|
<Video src={staticFile("video.mp4")} playbackRate={2} /> {/* 2x speed */}
|
|
<Video src={staticFile("video.mp4")} playbackRate={0.5} /> {/* Half speed */}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Reverse playback is not supported.
|
|
|
|
## Looping
|
|
|
|
Use `loop` to loop the video indefinitely:
|
|
|
|
```tsx
|
|
<Video src={staticFile("video.mp4")} loop />
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Use `loopVolumeCurveBehavior` to control how the frame count behaves when looping:
|
|
|
|
- `"repeat"`: Frame count resets to 0 each loop (for `volume` callback)
|
|
- `"extend"`: Frame count continues incrementing
|
|
|
|
```tsx
|
|
<Video
|
|
src={staticFile("video.mp4")}
|
|
loop
|
|
loopVolumeCurveBehavior="extend"
|
|
volume={(f) => interpolate(f, [0, 300], [1, 0])} // Fade out over multiple loops
|
|
/>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Pitch
|
|
|
|
Use `toneFrequency` to adjust the pitch without affecting speed. Values range from 0.01 to 2:
|
|
|
|
```tsx
|
|
<Video
|
|
src={staticFile("video.mp4")}
|
|
toneFrequency={1.5} // Higher pitch
|
|
/>
|
|
<Video
|
|
src={staticFile("video.mp4")}
|
|
toneFrequency={0.8} // Lower pitch
|
|
/>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Pitch shifting only works during server-side rendering, not in the Remotion Studio preview or in the `<Player />`.
