Heavy pipeline tasks (ingest, translate, render, rerender) now dispatch
to a Cloud Run Job (va-worker) instead of local Celery workers. optical-dev
runs only api + lightweight worker (notify/embed) within its 2-CPU budget.
- backend/app/tasks/runner.py — Cloud Run Job entrypoint
- backend/app/services/cloud_run_dispatch.py — replaces .delay() for heavy tasks
- backend/Dockerfile.cloudrun — Cloud Run worker image (ffmpeg included)
- docker-compose.optical-dev.yml — 2-CPU safe overrides, disables heavy workers
- cloudbuild.yaml — builds va-worker image and updates Cloud Run Job
- deploy-dev.sh — uses 3-file compose, builds only api+worker locally
- routes_jobs, routes_admin_production, ingest_and_ai, translate_and_synthesize
— all dispatch sites updated to use cloud_run_dispatch.dispatch()
USE_CELERY_FALLBACK=true in .env.local to use Celery locally during dev.

**BUG-1 & BUG-2 — Wrong audio plays after re-render / MP3 doesn't match text**
Root cause: audio files were named by index (cue_0.mp3, cue_1.mp3). When a cue
was inserted or deleted, all following indices shifted but old MP3 files kept
their original names, so re-render would play the wrong audio for the wrong cue.
Fix: renamed files to cue_N_CONTENTHASH.mp3 and introduced an ad_cue_manifest
stored in the job document that maps each cue index to its correct GCS URI.
Re-render now reads from the manifest instead of guessing by filename.
Also: editing AD cue text in the VTT editor now automatically queues TTS
regeneration for changed cues — no more silent mismatches.
**BUG-3 — App crash / state desync when uploading VTT or clearing TTS queue**
Fixed handleVttFileUpload to only update local editor state after the server
confirms the save — previously local state was updated first, so a network
error left the UI showing content that wasn't actually saved.
Fixed handleClearRegenerationQueue to only remove items from local state if
the server removal succeeded — previously all items were cleared regardless.
**BUG-4 — AI generates different audio descriptions every time**
Added GenerateContentConfig(temperature=0.2, top_p=0.8, top_k=40) to the
Gemini API call so output is more consistent across runs.
**BUG-5 — On-screen text inconsistently described**
Strengthened the AI prompt rule from a vague suggestion to a mandatory
requirement with an explicit format: "Text on screen reads: [exact text]".
Applied to both gemini_ingestion.md and gemini_ingestion_targeted.md.
**BUG-6 — No notification when re-render finishes**
Added rendering_qc toast notification and a dismissible green banner that
appears in QCDetail when re-render transitions to pending_qc. The banner
auto-dismisses after 10 seconds. Also increased WebSocket reconnect attempts
from 5 to 15 and capped backoff at 60s to prevent falling back to manual refresh.
**BUG-7 — Timeline preview looks accurate but isn't after edits**
Added isStale prop to TimelinePreview. The timeline now shows an amber tint
and "Preview may be outdated" label whenever there are unsaved pause point
changes, pending TTS regenerations, or a new VTT has been uploaded.
**BUG-8 — ElevenLabs API errors break TTS with no fallback**
Added try/except fallback chain in _synthesize_single_cue: if the configured
provider fails, it automatically retries with google, then gemini.
**BUG-9 — Concurrent re-render requests cause race conditions**
Made the PENDING_QC → RENDERING_QC status transition conditional (only
succeeds if the job is still in PENDING_QC). Returns HTTP 409 if a re-render
is already in progress. The completion transition back to PENDING_QC is also
conditional so a cancelled/overridden render doesn't corrupt job state.

- Add ethical guidelines section to both Gemini prompts covering
person-first language, consistent race/gender description only when
plot-relevant, no guessing at unconfirmed identity
- Revamp audio description rules: priority ordering (essential →

Whisper's snap_pause_point() finds the nearest sentence boundary
independently per cue, which can move a later cue's pause_point before
an earlier cue's. The renderer then sorts by pause_point, producing
non-sequential cue indices in the timeline.
Add a forward monotonicity pass (clamp each pause_point >= previous) at
three layers for defense-in-depth:
- whisper_service: Phase 3 after consolidation
- video_renderer: before temporal sort in _render_pause_insert_method
- rerender_accessible_video: in _build_placements_with_adjustments

When a new AD cue is inserted in the middle of existing cues, the system
now automatically queues TTS regeneration for the new cue AND all cues
that shifted positions. This ensures MP3 file indices stay synchronized
with VTT cue indices, preventing cues from being silently dropped during
re-render.
Changes:
- VttEditor: Add onCueInserted callback to notify parent of insertions
- QCDetail: Track insertion context and queue TTS for all shifted cues
- rerender_accessible_video: Add warning log when cue/MP3 count mismatch

The re-render task was using pause point coordinates from the accessible
video timeline (which includes freeze frame durations) instead of the
original source video coordinates. This caused pause points to exceed
the source video duration and get clamped incorrectly.
Changes:
- Add source_ms field to PausePointData model to store source video cut point
- Update video_renderer.py to populate source_ms when building pause points
- Update rerender_accessible_video.py to use source_ms for placement calculations
- Apply user adjustments as relative offsets (delta-based adjustment)
- Update API responses and TypeScript types to include source_ms
- Add backward compatibility fallback for jobs without source_ms
Note: Existing jobs need to be re-processed from initial render to populate
the new source_ms field.

Subtitles were appearing progressively out of sync (~1.0s early per AD)
because the VTT retimer calculated freeze durations theoretically
rather than using actual rendered segment durations.
Changes:
- video_renderer: Measure actual freeze segment duration after creation
- video_renderer: Return updated placements with actual_freeze_duration
- vtt_retimer: Prefer actual_freeze_duration over calculated values
- render_task: Pass actual durations to VTT retimer
This ensures subtitle timing matches the real video timeline regardless
of any FFmpeg encoding variations.

The TTS error handling had a bug where failed jobs stayed in
'tts_generating' status instead of being set to 'tts_failed'.
Root cause: synthesize_cue_task used autoretry_for=(Exception,)
which raises the original exception after max retries, not
MaxRetriesExceededError. The exception handler never fired.
Changes:
- tts_synthesis.py: Replace autoretry_for with manual retry logic
that returns a failure dict on final failure instead of raising
- translate_and_synthesize.py: Add propagate=False to group.get()
to safely retrieve all results including failures
- translate_and_synthesize.py: Update outer exception handler to
set job status to tts_failed, store error details, and broadcast
status update via WebSocket
Now TTS failures will:
1. Set job status to 'tts_failed'
2. Store detailed error info (cue index, text, message)
3. Show error in UI with retry button

Completely rewrites the Whisper-based pause point refinement to use
a two-phase approach with explicit ordering:
Phase 1 - Individual refinement:
1. Check if pause point is "during speaking" (words within ±2s)
- If NOT during speaking → use Gemini's exact point, no overlap
2. If during speaking, find nearest sentence boundary
3. Apply appropriate buffering based on context:
- Case A: First sentence → pause 500ms before sentence starts
- Case B: Last sentence → pause 500ms after sentence ends
- Case C: Between sentences → full double buffer (overlap)
Phase 2 - Consolidation (after all refinements):
- Consolidate cues within 5s of each other to play back-to-back
Key changes:
- Add SentenceBoundary dataclass for tracking boundaries with context
- Add _is_during_speaking() helper to detect speech proximity
- Add _find_sentence_boundaries() with longest-gap fallback
- Rewrite snap_pause_point() with new ordered algorithm
- Update refine_all_pause_points() to pass words and use two phases

Changed the Whisper transcription to run on dedicated whisper-worker
using the same dispatch pattern as FFmpeg:
1. apply_async() to dispatch to the whisper queue
2. Poll with ready() using async sleep to avoid blocking

4. Get result only after task is ready
This ensures Whisper runs with concurrency=1 on a dedicated worker
to prevent memory overload while still allowing the render task
to wait for results without deadlocking.

tempfile.TemporaryDirectory() so files are created in shared volume
- Updated docker-compose.yml to run containers as root initially,
chown /shared-tmp to app:app, then switch to app user for celery
- This ensures both worker containers can access the same temp files

Add a dedicated Celery queue (ffmpeg) with concurrency=1 to serialize
all FFmpeg operations. This prevents CPU spikes when multiple render
tasks run in parallel with multiple languages.
Changes:
- Add ffmpeg_operations.py with run_ffmpeg_command and run_ffprobe_command tasks
- Update VideoRendererService to dispatch ffmpeg commands via the queue
- Add ffmpeg-worker service to docker-compose with --concurrency=1
- Configure main worker to exclude the ffmpeg queue
