Check shots on the Playlist page and "Play selection" plays them back to
back without slate or handles. The cut comes from the version's handle and
slate metadata (new cutSpan in lib/handles); the media is never changed.
SequencePlayer double-buffers two videos: the next clip is parked a few
frames before its cut-in and pre-rolled hidden, the outgoing clip pauses on
its last cut frame, and the cut fires on the incoming clip's cut-in frame
(requestVideoFrameCallback), with the start time calibrated at each cut.

Worker 1.7.0 (preview.highQuality, default on) now, after the AE render:
- encodes a High quality MP4 from the delivery MOV (full-res H.264 High,
CRF 14 capped at 100 Mbps) -> Version.hqFileUrl
- uploads the MOV itself -> Version.highResKey/Filename/Size
Both best-effort (the preview never fails over them), with a lease
keep-alive during the long encode/uploads; the export timeline records
what was attached.
Player: HQ switch when a High quality source exists; keeps frame, play
state, speed and zoom, remembered per browser, falls back to Standard if
the file won't load. ProRes itself stays download-only (browser support).
Downloads: the client portal's High Res button serves the version's
ProRes (client-code filename), falling back to the shot's manual file;
staff get a ProRes button on the review page.
Housekeeping (lib/render-pipeline/high-res.ts): HQ MP4 + ProRes are kept
while a version is latest, client-shared, approved or younger than
preview.highResRetentionDays (14); otherwise deleted from storage. Runs
per task after finalize and hourly from the reaper; deleting a version or
a reslate removes its files. The Standard MP4 is never touched.
Also: ProRes/Handles top-bar buttons go icon-only below lg so they don't
overlap the version selector.

Renders run 8 frames past the cut at each end. Directors were flagging
glitches in unfixed handles as shot problems, so the player now marks
them — without trimming or burning anything into the EXRs/MOV/MP4.
- Version.handleHead/handleTail/pictureStartFrame, Export.handleHead/
handleTail; migration backfills pipeline exports and their preview
versions from the manifest's handleFrames (else 8)
- AE panel: "Includes handles [8] frames each end" -> manifest.review;
older manifests fall back to source.handleFrames
- finalize copies handles onto the Version; worker 1.6.4 reports the
head slate length (pictureStartSeconds), else the player infers it
as MP4 frames - EXR frameCount
- Player: hatched HANDLE / SLATE regions and cut marks on the timeline,
"HEAD/TAIL HANDLE · NOT IN EDIT" overlay on handle frames, HANDLE badge
on notes, "Edit range only" toggle (default on in the client portal)
- Staff Handles editor on the review page for manual uploads/corrections
Also fixes two player bugs found while testing: timeToFrame floored
float error (every seek landed a frame early), and J/reverse never ran
(the keyboard effect's cleanup stopped it on the next render).

Two independent features landing together:
Generated shot thumbnails — a shot can now carry a thumbnail promoted
from a render export (Shot.generatedThumbnailUrl/generatedThumbnailFrom)
alongside the existing brief-supplied thumbnailUrl, which always takes
display precedence (lib/shot-thumbnail.ts) so a promoted frame can only
ever fill a gap, never overwrite the brief. Shows with
pipelineConfig.autoShotThumbnail promote automatically on every
finished export (lib/render-pipeline/preview.ts); promoteExportThumbnail/
clearGeneratedThumbnail (actions/shots.ts) are the manual equivalent for
everyone else. Worker-side seek logic for picking the promoted frame is
covered by RenderWorker/VFXReviewWorker.Tests/ThumbnailSeekTests.cs.
Bulk shot delete — the shot-status page's selection bar gets a "Bulk
Actions" dropdown (alongside the existing Change Due Date) with Delete
Shots. bulkDeleteShots() (actions/shots.ts) deletes one at a time rather
than in a single statement: exports_shotId_fkey is ON DELETE RESTRICT
by design, so a shot with renders or deliveries on record is protected
and gets skipped and reported by name rather than aborting the whole
selection or being silently destroyed along with its history.
