PROJECT README

README

Visualizer Stream turns a media catalog into a controllable live visual system rather than a conventional video player.

A FastAPI control plane owns normalization, analysis, catalog state, queueing, autoplay, render-node coordination, and RTP streaming while authoritative music-state updates guide selection. Show mode, audience policy, resilient standby preparation, and strict media-source boundaries make the engine suitable for long-running installations and live sets.

ARTICLE

Cutting on the Beat Without Cutting the Stream

A technical explainer covering segment boundaries, persistent RTP identity, adaptive standby preparation, and transition metrics.

ARTICLE

From Track State to an Explainable Visual Choice

Music-aware autoplay works best when it can admit uncertainty, explain its ranking, and keep the show moving.

ARTICLE

Deleting Media Is a Playback Feature

A canonical artifact lifecycle makes storage cleanup safe enough for a live visual system.
