 - **Player frame-time hotspots removed (trace-backed) + weak-hardware hardening.** A Chrome performance trace of a 3D-highway session surfaced two core per-frame layout-thrash sources, now fixed: the highway's visibility check read `canvas.offsetParent` every rAF frame (forces style/layout recalc — now sampled every 10th frame with a cached value, force-refreshed on init/canvas-replace/resize/override-clear), and the v3 player chrome loop called `matches(':hover')` per frame and unconditionally rewrote the Up-Next pill's `textContent`/bar width at 6 Hz (now hover-tracked via mouseenter/mouseleave, DOM writes only on value change, progress bar moved from `width` to compositor-only `scaleX`). The 3D highway pre-warms shader programs (`ren.compile`) and deterministic label textures at init — and chart-dependent chord/section label textures on first draw — so first-appearance shader-compile/texture-upload frame spikes move into the load spinner. For weaker hardware: the per-frame renderer bundle is now a single reused object instead of a fresh ~35-field allocation per frame (object identity is stable and meaningless; array fields still swap reference on chart changes), custom viz get `bundle.lowerBoundT`/`bundle.lowerBoundTime` binary-search helpers for visible-window culling, the default 2D highway's beat lines no longer scan every beat in the song per frame, and the 3D highway stops reading `localStorage` per frame (1 Hz poll) and caches its lyrics text-measurement layout per displayed line instead of re-measuring every syllable every frame. A second, throttled-CPU trace pass additionally removed: shader-program re-resolution churn from label texture swaps (`material.needsUpdate` is now only set on a null↔texture transition — swapping between two cached label textures never changes the compiled program), the 3D highway's per-frame `getBoundingClientRect` layout read in its canvas-size self-check (now every 10th frame, still immediate on backing-store change), and the core 60 Hz HUD clock rewriting `textContent` on every tick (now write-on-change, ~1/s). The dominant residual — steady `getParameters` shader-program re-resolution (~4% of throttled main thread) — turned out to be Three r158+'s transparent-DoubleSide two-pass rendering, which sets `material.needsUpdate` twice per object per frame; all 18 of the 3D highway's transparent DoubleSide materials are flat unlit quads (labels, rails, chord frames, lanes), so they now declare `forceSinglePass: true`, eliminating the recompile churn and halving those objects' draw calls.
 
 ### Fixed
+- **Guitar Pro 6 (`.gpx`) import no longer fails on every real file.** The GPX BCFS container reader (`lib/gp2rs_gpx.py`) rejected any file whose final sector wasn't a full `0x1000` block — but a real `.gpx`'s BCFZ-declared decompressed size isn't sector-aligned, so the last (small) container file always lands in a partial trailing sector. The bounds check *raised* `GPX BCFS sector pointer out of range (malformed file)` instead of clamping the tail read, so `_load_gpif` threw before `score.gpif` could be extracted and **no GP6 file could be imported into the song editor** (both real test files failed identically — this wasn't file-specific). GP7/GP8 `.gp` files were unaffected — they take the ZIP path, not BCFS, which is why prior GP-import work didn't surface it. The reader now **clamps the final sector read to the buffer end** (the per-file size field trims the padding anyway), matching canonical GPX readers (alphaTab / PyGuitarPro); a sector whose *start* is past the end still raises, preserving the malformed-file guard. Verified against two real GP6 files — both now unpack to valid GPIF with all tracks. Tests: `tests/test_gp2rs_gpx.py` (partial-final-sector round-trip, multi-file container, sector-aligned baseline, and the preserved out-of-range guard).
+- **v3 Songs grid: fixed the scroll stutter that "skips every so many scrolls," up or down.** The virtualized grid rebuilt its **entire** visible window (`grid.innerHTML = …` + a full `wireCards` pass) every time it slid by one row, so each row-boundary crossing was a heavy synchronous frame that stalled the main thread and buffered held-arrow key-repeats into a visible lurch (a tester's "super fast for a second then slowed down") at fixed scroll offsets — in **both directions and regardless of whether the page was already loaded** (the cost was DOM teardown, not fetching, which is why scrolling back up over cached songs hitched too). `renderWindow()` now **reconciles the window in place**: it reuses the card nodes that stay on-screen and builds only the row that enters/leaves (~6 nodes per slide instead of ~60), keyed by absolute index with a real-vs-skeleton + select-mode signature so hole-fills (after a page fetch) and select-mode toggles still rebuild exactly the nodes that changed. `wireCards`'s `data-wired` guard then wires only the freshly-built nodes, so per-slide listener churn drops with it. Follow-up to the stage-2 virtualized grid (got-feedback/feedBack#636 item 3). Frontend-only: `static/v3/songs.js`. Tests: `tests/js/v3_songs_window_recycle.test.js` (window stays `[start,end)` contiguous + in-window node identity reused across a down-then-up scroll; select-mode toggle and rail-seek jump rebuild correctly).
+- **Starter content seeds again (and now ships The Adicts' "Ode to Joy").** `_BUILTIN_STARTER_SOURCES` still listed `beethoven-ode_to_joy.feedpak` after that pack was deleted, and never wired up its replacement `the_adicts-ode-to-joy_vst_cover.feedpak` that landed on disk. The listed-but-missing file made the all-present gate never fire, so **no** starter songs seeded on first run. Synced the manifest to what's on disk (Für Elise, Star Spangled Banner, The Adicts' Ode to Joy). Tests: `tests/test_builtin_starter_seed.py` (the present/unlisted guards were red on `main`).
 - **Edit Metadata now writes into `.feedpak` files, not just legacy `.sloppak` ones.** `lib/songmeta.py`'s suffix gate predated the format rename — core reads both suffixes everywhere else (`sloppak.SONG_EXTS`), but the metadata writer only dispatched on `.sloppak`, so editing a zip-form `.feedpak`'s title/artist/album/year silently fell back to a DB-only update. That looked fine until the next **full library rescan** re-derived metadata from the file and reverted the edit (directory-form packages were unaffected — they dispatch on manifest presence, not suffix). The gate now accepts both package suffixes. Tests: `tests/test_songmeta.py` `TestWriteSongMetadata` (both zip suffixes, mixed-case suffix, directory form, unknown-suffix fallback).
 - **3D Drum & Keys highways now re-frame on fullscreen/layout drift under splitscreen.** The guitar/bass `highway_3d` self-detects when its panel canvas changes size and re-runs `applySize()` every frame, because the splitscreen host overrides `hw.resize` and never calls `renderer.resize()`. The drum and keys highways lacked that fallback — they only re-framed when the host explicitly called `resize(w, h)` — so their panels stayed framed for the pre-fullscreen size while the guitar/bass panels adapted (visible as a too-small, off-center highway after maximizing a split-screen session). Both draw loops now port `highway_3d`'s per-frame drift check: they re-apply on backing-store change (`canvas.width/height`) AND on CSS-box drift (`clientWidth/clientHeight` vs the last applied logical size, throttled to every 10th frame), and reset the tracking in `destroy()` so a reused instance re-frames on the next song. `plugins/drum_highway_3d` → 0.3.1, `plugins/keys_highway_3d` → 0.1.1. Tests: `tests/js/drum_keys_highway_3d_resize_reframe.test.js`.
 - **Tuner: finished the "remove unused settings" cleanup and fixed the sidebar panel position.** The Floating Button and Tuning Visibility settings sections were removed, but their config was still live: `disabledTunings` still filtered the tuner menu (with no UI left to re-enable a hidden tuning — a one-way trap) and `showFloatingButton` still gated the floating launcher. Both are now fully retired — the enforcement paths in `plugins/tuner/screen.js`/`utils/ui.js` and the persistence in `plugins/tuner/routes.py` are gone (and `routes.py` strips the retired keys on write, so stale values are purged). The tuner panel opened from the v3 sidebar Plugins rail popover now anchors beside it via the host's stable plugin-control slot API (falling back to the popover id), is **clamped to the viewport** so it can't open off the right/bottom edge on narrow/short windows, and re-anchors on window resize. `plugins/tuner` → 1.3.3.

+"""AcoustID audio-fingerprint identification for MusicBrainz enrichment.
+
+A flat MusicBrainz *text* search ties every take of a song at the same score —
+studio, a dozen live bootlegs, and every compilation — so "AC/DC — Highway to
+Hell" returns junk (see lib/mb_match.py's canonical re-ranking, which mitigates
+it). The definitive fix is content-based: fingerprint the actual audio with
+Chromaprint (`fpcalc`) and look it up on AcoustID, which maps the fingerprint
+straight to the *exact* MusicBrainz recording — the same approach Lidarr uses.
+
+This module is the PURE half (no network, no subprocess): response parsing +
+config gating, so it is unit-testable in isolation. server.py owns the `fpcalc`
+subprocess and the throttled HTTP GET to api.acoustid.org.
+
+Operational requirements (both optional — absent ⇒ this path is a graceful
+no-op and the text matcher still runs):
+  * `fpcalc` (Chromaprint) on PATH or at $FPCALC — generates the fingerprint.
+  * an AcoustID application API key in $ACOUSTID_API_KEY — free from
+    https://acoustid.org/new-application ; AcoustID etiquette limits to ~3 req/s.
