 ## [Unreleased]
 
+### Added
+- **`lib/midi_import.py`: `convert_midi_tempo_map` — MIDI imports can finally carry
+  their bars.** The keys/drums note converters always computed a tempo-aware
+  tick→seconds map internally (to bake note times to absolute seconds) and then threw
+  it away — and never read `time_signature` meta at all — so every MIDI import landed
+  with no measures and an implied 4/4 regardless of what the file said. The new helper
+  extracts the whole grid: `tempos` (`{time, bpm}`), `time_signatures` (`{time,
+  ts:[num,den]}`, the song-timeline sidecar shape), and a full `beats` grid on the
+  editor's row shape (numbered downbeats with a `den` hint, `-1` interior beats,
+  eighth-note rows in 6/8 etc.). Event scope mirrors the existing tick map — SMF
+  type 0/1 merge meta across tracks, type 2 reads only the chosen track (independent
+  timelines must never share a grid); mid-bar signature events apply at the next bar
+  boundary; times are computed from absolute ticks through the cumulative tempo table
+  and rounded once at emit, so rounding error never accumulates with song length.
+  Consumed by the editor's upcoming multitrack MIDI import (tempo-seed dialog). Tests:
+  `tests/test_midi_tempo_map.py`.
+
 ### Fixed
+- **Tuner: opening the player screen no longer throws `NotFoundError` and aborts the player render (feedBack#800).** `injectPlayerButton()` anchored the injected Tuner button with `controls.querySelector('button:last-child')`, which — unlike a `:scope`-scoped query — can match a **nested** button that is not a direct child of `#player-controls`. `controls.insertBefore(btn, nestedButton)` then throws `NotFoundError` (the reference node must be a direct child), and because the injection runs from the tuner's `screen:changed` → player handler, the throw propagated out of the player-screen transition and stalled its render (surfaced by a headless render of a notation arrangement; the v3 path was already safe via the plugin-control slot, only the classic path had the bad anchor). The anchor is now `:scope > button:last-of-type` (a direct child only) with a `parentNode === controls` guard before `insertBefore`, falling back to `appendChild`. `plugins/tuner` → 1.3.4. Tests: `tests/plugins/tuner/js/inject_player_button.test.js` (nested-last-button repro, direct-child insert, no-button append, idempotency, v3 slot path).
 - **Auto-sync: DTW step constraint — riff-based songs no longer produce garbage sync points.** `librosa.sequence.dtw`'s default step pattern allows unbounded horizontal/vertical path runs, and on music with long self-similar chroma stretches (riff-driven stoner/doom, drone sections) the flat cost surface let the warping path collapse — minutes of score mapped onto a single audio frame, so the per-bar warp imported charts wildly out of sync while reporting success (observed on a real 138 BPM tab: effective displayed tempo 159 BPM, three sync points sharing one audio timestamp). `_dtw_align` now uses the standard music-sync slope-constrained step pattern (`[[1,1],[1,2],[2,1]]`, local tempo ratio bounded to 0.5x–2x), which makes the degenerate path impossible, with a fallback to unconstrained steps when the global length ratio makes the constrained pattern infeasible (e.g. a tab aligned against a full-concert video). Validated on the failing song: coarse points track the recording 1:1, refined downbeats land on onset peaks at 3.3x background energy.
 
 ### Added
@@ -20,6 +38,7 @@ and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0
 - **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
+- **`playback.loop-api` bridge no longer fires dozens of times per second.** Every `window.feedBack.getLoop()` call recorded a full bridge hit — compat-shim bookkeeping, a `playback:bridge-hit` event, and a diagnostics snapshot rebuild + stringify — so a plugin polling loop state from a HUD tick (note_detect at ~30 Hz) flooded the capability inspector and burned main-thread time even with no song playing. `_recordPlaybackBridge` now throttles per bridge/surface (5 s window): bridge hits are a "surface still in use" signal, not a call counter. The manual A/B loop buttons (`setLoopEnd`) also now emit the same `loop-set` transport event as `setLoop()`, so plugins can react to loop changes via `playback:loop-set` / `playback:loop-cleared` events instead of polling `getLoop()`.
 - **3D Highway: recover from a WebGL context loss instead of crashing on alt-tab.** Switching the active window / alt-tabbing away from the app (most often on Windows) can trigger a GPU context reset; the 3D highway's WebGL renderer had **no `webglcontextlost` handler**, so a lost context was left to escalate into a render-process crash — matching the intermittent "randomly crashes when I change windows" desktop reports. The renderer now binds `webglcontextlost`/`webglcontextrestored` on its own WebGL canvas (`ren.domElement`): the loss is `preventDefault()`'d so the browser keeps the context restorable, `draw()` bails while the context is down so no GL work runs on a dead context, and on restore the viewport is re-applied and rendering resumes (Three re-uploads scene resources on the next frame). Listeners are torn down with the renderer. `plugins/highway_3d` → 3.31.3. Tests: `tests/js/highway_3d_context_loss.test.js`. (The sibling `keys_highway_3d` / `drum_highway_3d` renderers share the same gap — tracked as a follow-up in their repos.)
 - **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).

 RS+-style falling-note 3D piano highway for [Slopsmith](https://github.com/got-feedback/feedback), fed by the **Sloppak Notation Format** (sloppak-spec §5.3) — part of the piano/keys first-class epic (slopsmith#828, plugin workstream slopsmith#824).
 
 - Consumes the `notation_info` / `notation_measures` highway-WS stream over a private per-instance socket and flattens measure → staff → voice → beat → note into `{midi, t, durSec, hand}` (durations derived from written `dur`/`dot`/`tu` at the running tempo; ties extend; overlap-clamped).
-- 3D perspective highway to a vanishing point with a real white/black-key keyboard; per-key **pitch-class colours** (Synthesia convention — C red, D yellow, E blue, …) with hand (rh/lh) as a secondary brightness cue.
+- 3D perspective highway to a vanishing point with a real white/black-key keyboard; per-key **pitch-class colours** (Synthesia convention — C red, D yellow, E blue, …) with hand (rh/lh) as a secondary brightness cue. Selectable **note-colour palettes** (settings → Note colours, `keys3d_bg_palette`, default the per-octave scheme): a per-octave rainbow (each octave its own hue, darker sharps), the original per-pitch "Rainbow" table, vivid/pastel per-pitch variants, and single-hue two-tone palettes (uniform naturals, darker sharps) for players who want "black key coming" to read at a glance; notes, key glow, lane guides and hit flames all follow the pick live.
 - Full RS+ visual treatment: key **letter glyphs** printed on the active-range key tops (cached CanvasTextures), **bevelled gem-style note blocks** (ExtrudeGeometry, geometry/material caches keyed by size and pitch-class×hand), **floating bar numbers** scrolling with the notes, **active-range lane dimming** so the playable span pops, and a **glowing pulsing hit-line** (layered additive gradient planes — no postprocessing).
 - Performance discipline: no per-frame allocations or DOM queries in `draw()`. Chart-scoped resources — note geometries/materials, bar-number and glow textures — are cached and disposed on chart teardown; the key-letter glyph `CanvasTexture`s live in a shared module-level cache that survives teardown and is reused across instances.
 - Auto-selected for arrangements with notation via `matchesArrangement(songInfo.has_notation)`; capability-native `visualization` provider declaration.
+- **Camera settings**: camera-rig presets (`keys3d_bg_camera` — classic low rig / elevated / overhead; default overhead, applied live, adaptive pan-zoom preserved) with base-rig fine-tune sliders for height, distance and tilt (`keys3d_bg_camHeight` / `camDist` / `camTilt`) that nudge the vantage point the follow-motion orbits. Numeric FX keys clamp to per-key declared ranges (`FX_RANGES`, default 0–1).
 - **Web MIDI input scoring**: module-level MIDI singleton (one access per tab, focused-instance routing) with device auto-connect by saved id+name, loopback blocklist, channel filter, transpose and CC64 sustain (`keys3d_` localStorage prefix; `window.keysH3d*` settings API). Hit detection matches played MIDI against the flattened chart notes within ±0.10 s with per-note dedupe and a missed-note sweep (only while a device is connected — never retroactive across a mid-song connect).
 - **Live hit feedback on the MIDI path** (not the chart): key depress (~4° back-edge pivot, ~120 ms spring; the key letter rides along), wrong-note red key flash, and a vertical flame flare on hits (pooled additive sprites, white-hot base fading into the pitch-class colour, ~400 ms).
 - **End-of-run stats**: POSTs `/api/stats` `{filename, arrangement, score, accuracy}` exactly once per run with the same formula as the guitar notedetect path (`accuracy = hits / max(1, hits+misses)`, `score = round(hits·100·accuracy)`), then notifies the progression core when present.

+"""Tests for lib/midi_import.py — convert_midi_tempo_map.
+
+The note converters always computed a tempo-aware tick→seconds map internally
+(to bake note times) and then threw it away — and never read time_signature
+meta at all — so every MIDI import landed with no bars, no measures, and an
+implied 4/4 regardless of the file. convert_midi_tempo_map extracts the grid:
+tempos, time signatures (song-timeline shape), and a full beat grid on the
+editor's row shape (numbered downbeats with a `den` hint, `-1` sub-beats).
+
+Every test drives the REAL function against a real .mid built in-memory with
+mido and saved to tmp_path — no stubs, adversarial inputs included (type-2
+scoping, mid-bar signatures, duplicate meta ticks, empty files, long files
+for rounding drift).
