feat(website): demo loops on the homepage and feature pages, lazily loaded from R2 - #978
Conversation
Eighteen silent 1080p60 loops of the app, served from Cloudflare R2 rather than website/static/, where every re-cut would stay in git for good. <video> has no loading="lazy", so DemoLoop does it: an empty 16:9 box in the HTML, sources and poster attached a screen ahead, the 720p or 1080p file picked from the box's real width, HEVC first with H.264 behind it, playback only while half the box is on screen, no autoplay under reduced motion or Save-Data, and a pause button on every loop (WCAG 2.2.2). Placed on the auto-zoom, captions and Screen Studio pages in all eight locales; the loops carry no words, so only their screen-reader labels are translated.
… attach Its play() landed while the browser was still selecting a source and was aborted, and no visibility threshold was crossed afterwards to ask again, so the first loop on a page sat paused. Ask again on loadeddata.

Review comments at @website/src/components/DemoLoop/index.tsx:
- Line 69: Update the effect that assigns auto.current using motionAllowed() so
it listens for changes to the reduced-motion media query and disables automatic
playback when the query starts matching. Remove the change listener during
effect cleanup, preserving the existing initial motion preference behavior.
- Line 42: Update the NEAR root-margin value used by DemoLoop’s
IntersectionObserver to provide a one-viewport-height loading lead using a
pixel-based vertical margin, rather than a percentage based on the root’s width.
- Line 130: Update the source-rendering condition in the component containing
`loopSources` so video sources are rendered only when automatic playback is
allowed or the reader has explicitly requested playback (`wanted === true`).
Keep the existing height check and source mapping unchanged.

A films section under the scroll-driven editor, for what the editor does not reach: the look a take opens with, depth (3D camera, cursor packs, device frames, animated backgrounds), the webcam (layouts, cutout), and the format and blur before a file ships. Centred head, a wide stage whose loops take turns behind a tab bar that doubles as their progress, and three notes under it. Every claim was checked against the app's English UI and projectDefaults.ts; the seven translations reuse the app's own words for its options. The Showcase's captions and agent bands are filmed now too: their copy stays, the drawn panels go (and their CSS). The recorder and the encoder keep their drawings, having no film. DemoLoop gains a one-shot mode with onEnded and per-frame onProgress for the stages. Also fixes the caption-styles label: the fifth style shows one word at a time; nothing in the app highlights word by word.

- Line 71: When `onEnded` advances to the next tab, preserve keyboard focus if
it was inside the outgoing `DemoLoop`: move focus to the newly selected tab or
its playback control after the transition. Update the focus handling around
`current.loop` and the tab-selection logic without changing the existing
loop-key behavior.
- Line 45: Update the tab buttons in the Films component to use roving tab
order, keeping only the currently selected tab at the page Tab stop and
synchronizing it when playback advances. Handle Left and Right Arrow to move
between tabs, while preserving Enter and Space activation.

…ng it out The loops are re-cut (media folder loops/2026-10b): every cut inside a loop is now a cross-fade on the same moment of the take, and every loop's end dissolves into its own start, so none of them jumps when it repeats. beautiful-by-default goes from six hard cuts to four shots dissolving into one another; animated-backgrounds is animated from its first frame; the agent's wait is skipped with a dissolve instead of a 12x fast-forward; the dragged card no longer jumps back to its column when dropped (a bug in the demo app, fixed and re-filmed). A scene-cut detector finds no hard cut in any of the eighteen. On a stage, switching tabs cross-fades too: the loop being left stays on top, holding its last frame, until the next one has a frame of its own. The camera block shows background blur on a square vignette, pushed in so the blur reads, rather than the cutout. The pause button moves to the top right, off the corner where webcam vignettes sit.
…t the German films copy "Or say which parts to cut." answered a band that no longer sits before it, and the film beside it asks for zooms, not cuts. The German films strings said Sie where the rest of the German site says du.
DemoLoop: - one screen of loading lead in pixels: a percentage rootMargin resolves against the root's width, under a screen on a portrait phone - no <source> before the play button when autoplay is off (reduced motion, Save-Data): preload="none" is only a hint - follow prefers-reduced-motion while the page is open; turning it on stops a playing loop Film stages: - the WAI-ARIA tabs pattern: one Tab stop on the selected tab, arrows and Home/End to move, selection following focus - focus inside a clip that ends, or on a tab, moves to the newly selected tab; focus left inside a fading layer moves off it before it unmounts
358c338 made the timeline's empty-lane hints take the bound shortcut through {{key}}. The recreation generator renders those hints and had no value for it, so check:recreation threw. It only runs when website/ changes, which is why main never saw it. The generator now fills {{key}} from the app's DEFAULT_SHORTCUTS through the app's own formatBinding (shortcuts.ts loads as-is, like cursorThemes.ts), and the hints' provenance entries say they are computed. The rendered text is unchanged: Press A / S / C.
Summary
Silent demo loops of the app on the homepage and on the auto-zoom, captions and Screen Studio pages, in all eight locales. The format is the one the category's own sites use: short, wordless, 60 fps; the page around a loop carries the words.
Homepage. A films section under the scroll-driven editor, for what the editor does not reach: the look a take opens with (
beautiful-by-default), depth (3D camera, cursor packs, device frames, animated backgrounds), the webcam (layouts, cutout), and format + blur as a pair. Each block: kicker, centred title and lead, a wide stage whose loops take turns behind a tab bar that doubles as their progress bar (clicking a tab jumps), and three notes. Claims checked against the English UI strings andprojectDefaults.ts; translations reuse the app's own option names per locale. The Showcase's captions and agent bands now show their loops in place of the drawn panels (drawings and their CSS removed); recorder and encoder keep their drawings.Hosting. The files are on Cloudflare R2 at
media.getopenscreen.com/loops/2026-10/, not inwebsite/static/. Eighteen loops in two codecs and two sizes come to about 75 MB per cut, and everything understatic/stays in git for good (seescripts/check-media-budget.mjs, which this PR does not touch and which still passes). The folder name is the cut: a re-encode goes to a new folder, so the files can be cached for a year.Loading.
<video>has noloading="lazy", soDemoLoopdoes it:hvc1, measured with VMAF: 23% lighter at equal quality, or sharper at equal size), H.264 behind it for engines without HEVCprefers-reduced-motionor Save-Data: poster plus a play button, and the video is fetched only on that clickNo audio track in any file (WebKit autoplay), checked on all 90.
Cloudflare side (already in place): bucket in the Standard class only;
r2.devaccess off; a cache rule that keeps the loops at the edge for a year, ignores query strings and caches 4xx for an hour, so repeat reads never reach R2; a custom rule that blocks anything but GET/HEAD under/loops/without a query string; a 120 requests / 10 s per-IP rate limit; billing alerts at any usage-based spend and at half the free tier for R2 reads, writes and storage.The loops carry no words, so only their screen-reader labels are translated (code.json, seven locales, accepted into
