Two compounding causes behind 'playhead advances but the picture stays frozen' and 'pause freezes the app': - The wall-anchored clock teleported the playhead past the pre-render window during any long stall (the first render after pressing play costs seconds while the worker pool spins up: measured +104 frames in one 4.1s block). The window then started behind and, with stale in-flight frames occupying the workers, never converged. RealClock::tick now clamps the advance to 2 frames/tick and re-anchors the dropped time (NLE drop-frames semantics). - Window frames the playhead had already passed stayed pending/in flight, burning worker time on frames that could never be displayed. update_preview_window now cancels them per tick via the new JobDispatch::cancel_preview_frame, keeping the workers on frames around the playhead. Includes a production-shaped regression test (real 1080p media on the timeline, actual cpu_frame display path) that failed with the exact production signature (playhead 240 / displayed 0 / 36 stale slots) before the fix and passes after.

Roadmap
| Version | Theme | Core Deliverables | Boundary Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0.3 | Plugin Architecture Milestone | Production-ready OpenFX host support | Not about quantity of plugins, but "any OFX plugin loads without crashing" |
| 0.4 | Color, Audio & Performance | .cube/.3dl support, scopes (waveform/vectorscope/histogram), three-way color wheels, waveform auto-sync, BWF timecode sync, audio meters (LUFS/VU), proxy media workflow, hardware-accelerated export (NVENC/VideoToolbox), batch render queue |
Combines the previous 0.4-0.6 scope into one usability milestone: color workflow, audio sync, and 4K/8K performance |
| 0.5 | Animation, Tracking & Collaboration | Bézier keyframe curve editor, basic point tracking, image stabilizer, full multicam angle switching, OpenTimelineIO, EDL/XML import/export | Combines the previous 0.7-0.8 scope into one timeline/interchange milestone |
| 0.6 | Stability Milestone | Project file format freeze (backward compatibility promise), crash recovery, autosave, memory optimization | "Feature freeze" testing period before 1.0 |
| 1.0 | Production Ready | Complete documentation, installers, known issues list, community support channels | Declared "ready for serious projects" |
