// Scrypted Viewport — v1 Scripts-plugin script
//
// Architecture
// ------------
// One parent device (DeviceProvider + DeviceCreator + HttpRequestHandler)
// spawns N child "Viewport" devices via the Scrypted UI. Each child holds
// the per-viewport binding (host, camera, orientation, idle timeout,
// brightness) as plain device settings and is editable from its own
// Settings page in the Scrypted UI. The parent owns the camera event
// subscriptions, the snapshot push loop, the per-stream safety timer,
// and the inbound `POST <base>/state` handler.
//
// Install
// -------
// 1. In Scrypted: Plugins → install "Scripts" if needed.
// 2. + Add Device → Scripts plugin → New Script.
// 3. Paste this entire file. Save.
// 4. Open the new "Scrypted Viewport" device. Click "+ Add Device" on
// its page to create a viewport binding:
// Viewport name e.g. "mudroom" (friendly routing key)
// IP or hostname e.g. "192.168.1.42"
// Camera pick from the dropdown of Camera devices
// Orientation portrait (480×800) or landscape (800×480)
// 5. The script POSTs /config to the device immediately and re-issues it
// every 5 minutes so a reboot or DHCP renumber re-syncs.
// 6. Edit a viewport's settings from its own device page in the UI. The
// script re-registers and re-subscribes whenever a setting changes.
//
// Streaming
// ---------
// On wake we subscribe to the camera's video stream, spawn one ffmpeg
// child that scales + re-encodes to MJPEG (q:v 2, lanczos) at the
// viewport's configured fps, demux JPEG frames out of stdout (FFD8…FFD9)
// and POST each one to the firmware's existing /frame endpoint. Single-
// flight semantics gate against the firmware's in-flight mutex; surplus
// frames are dropped silently and counted for a periodic skip-rate log.
//
// Limits
// ------
// - Manual IP per viewport (see README for how to find it via mDNS from
// your shell). DHCP reservation recommended so the IP stays stable.
// - Camera must expose a video stream; pure-snapshot cameras need a
// transcoder mixin upstream.
// The Scripts plugin (in @scrypted/core) evaluates this file inside the
// scryptedEval sandbox. The runtime pre-injects the SDK names as scope
// locals — no `import` is needed (or allowed: any `import ... from
// "@scrypted/sdk"` compiles to a require() that fails to resolve).
// All we do here is `declare` each one so TypeScript is happy; the
// declarations erase at compile time and the values come from the
// runtime scope.
