Every RAF stopped at the embedded preview, because the demosaicer had one kernel and it was a Bayer kernel. D11 makes Fujifilm first-class and FR-RAW-5 asks for it by name, so a hard error there was a promise we had not kept. X-Trans is a 6x6 tile, and nothing in the Bayer path survives that: the missing channels sit at different offsets at all 36 positions, so there is no fixed kernel to write. The new shader fits a weighted plane through each channel's samples in a 5x5 window and carries the other two channels across as the difference between those planes, keeping the pixel's own measured value untouched. A plane rather than a mean because the three channels are sampled at different places in the tile: a mean compares a red taken slightly left of the pixel with a green taken slightly right of it, and that offset is a colour cast that follows every gradient in the frame. The fit is done in white-balanced space, where the constant-colour-difference model it rests on is actually true of a neutral subject; that alone halves the error at a luminance edge. Two compromises, both deliberate. It is not Markesteijn. There are no directional hypotheses and no homogeneity map, so it does not resolve detail finer than the CFA period and a hard edge arrives about two pixels wide. It cannot ring — the output is bounded by the local sample range — so it does not produce the worms FR-RAW-5 exists to avoid, but the quality that requirement asks for is still owed. The tile's phase is guessed rather than known. rawler has each body's pattern exactly, as a 36-character string, but CfaPattern::XTrans throws it away before dr-gpu sees the file, and it is not a constant to hard-code: the bodies in that database start the tile at four different origins. So the phase is read back out of the pixels, by grouping the 36 per-position means and taking the grouping with the least spread. That part needs nothing from the scene. Telling red from blue does — shifting the tile by half a tile turns it into itself with red and blue swapped, so no geometry can decide it — and the as-shot white balance is what breaks the tie. A frame that is almost entirely one colour can defeat that; widening dr-decode to carry the pattern string would retire the guess altogether. The tests assert reconstruction, not success: a flat patch comes back exactly at all six phases tested, and a linear ramp comes back exactly too, which is the property the plane fit exists for and the one a mean would fail.

DarkRoom
A cross-platform, non-destructive RAW photo editor for Linux and Android.
Status: early. v0.1 is a remote library viewer — see docs/milestone-v0.1.md.

Building
Desktop:
cargo run -p darkroom-desktop
Android (containerised toolchain, see docker/android):
./docker/android/build.sh cargo ndk -t arm64-v8a build --release
Current state
Working: workspace, GPU context and compute pass, adaptive Slint shell, Android cross-compilation of the core crates.
Not yet working: the zero-copy display path. The build currently uploads frames through the CPU, which is exactly what ARCH §6.1 forbids — measured at 96% of frame time at 4K. Replacing it is spike S1, the project's highest priority.
cargo run -p dr-gpu --example bench --features readback
reproduces that measurement.
