ProdDash/modules/propresenter-timers/native/ltc-capture.swift

// ltc-capture — minimal CoreAudio input capture for the Timers module's
// LTC listener.
//
// The module decodes LTC in-process (ltc.js) and spawns this to move
// samples from an input device to a pipe. Production machines rarely have
// ffmpeg/sox, and shipping a third-party binary for that one job is
// overkill — this is the whole job, natively. It ships prebuilt in the
// module's bin/ (one binary per platform, committed — a booth never
// builds anything). To rebuild after a change here, on any Mac with the
// Xcode command line tools:
//
//   modules/propresenter-timers/native/build.sh       (both architectures, ~10 s)
//
//   ltc-capture --list
//       every input-capable device: name, input channels, sample rate
//   ltc-capture --device "Dante Via 16 Channel"
//       streams the device's inputs as interleaved s16le to stdout, at the
//       device's own sample rate and channel count (both printed to stderr
//       at start). The name matches exactly first, then as a substring.
//
// --device matches case-insensitively on a substring of the device name or
// UID; ambiguity is an error listing the candidates. Capture uses an
// AVAudioEngine input tap pinned to the chosen device, converting Float32
// to clamped Int16 little-endian. stdout is samples only; every message
// goes to stderr.
//
// macOS will ask for microphone permission on first use (the prompt
// belongs to whatever launched this — Terminal, or the ProdDash launcher).
// Over SSH there is no prompt to answer: grant it once at the console, or
// approve the terminal app under System Settings → Privacy → Microphone.
