+# File Formats
+
+This document captures source-file-format notes that complement the normative
+requirements in `requirements/source_file_formats.md`.
+
+The first documented format is a Matroska source that carries styled ASS/SSA
+subtitle streams together with embedded font attachments.
+
+## Styled ASS In Matroska With Embedded Fonts
+
+These files are typically `.mkv` releases where subtitle rendering quality
+depends on keeping both parts of the subtitle package together:
+
+- one or more subtitle streams with codec `ass`
+- one or more attachment streams that embed font files used by those subtitles
+
+This matters because ASS subtitles are not plain text subtitles in the narrow
+WebVTT sense. They can carry layout, styling, positioning, karaoke, signs, and
+other typesetting effects. If the matching embedded fonts are lost, consumers
+can still see subtitle text but the intended styling and sometimes glyph
+coverage can be degraded.
+
+For FFX this format is special because the ASS subtitle streams should remain
+normally editable and mappable, while the related font attachments should be
+transported unchanged.
+
+## Observed Sample
+
+Assessment date: `2026-04-17`
+
+Observed sample file:
+
+- `tests/assets/boruto_s01e283_ssa.mkv`
+
+Commands used for assessment:
+
+```bash
+ffprobe tests/assets/boruto_s01e283_ssa.mkv
+ffprobe -hide_banner -show_format -show_streams -of json tests/assets/boruto_s01e283_ssa.mkv
+```
+
+Observed stream layout:
+
+| Stream index | Kind | Key details |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `0` | video | `codec_name=h264` |
+| `1` | audio | `codec_name=aac`, `language=jpn` |
+| `2` | subtitle | `codec_name=ass`, `language=ger`, default |
+| `3` | subtitle | `codec_name=ass`, `language=eng` |
+| `4`-`13` | attachment | `tags.mimetype=font/ttf`, `.ttf` filenames |
+
+Observed attachment filenames:
+
+- `AmazonEmberTanuki-Italic.ttf`
+- `AmazonEmberTanuki-Regular.ttf`
+- `Arial.ttf`
+- `Arial Bold.ttf`
+- `Georgia.ttf`
+- `Times New Roman.ttf`
+- `Times New Roman Bold.ttf`
+- `Trebuchet MS.ttf`
+- `Verdana.ttf`
+- `Verdana Bold.ttf`
+
+Important probe behavior from the real sample:
+
+- Plain `ffprobe` lists the font streams as `Attachment: none`.
+- Plain `ffprobe` also prints warnings such as `Could not find codec
+  parameters for stream 4 (Attachment: none): unknown codec` and later
+  `Unsupported codec with id 0 for input stream ...`.
+- The JSON produced by `FileProperties.FFPROBE_COMMAND_TOKENS`
+  (`ffprobe -hide_banner -show_format -show_streams -of json`) still exposes
+  the attachment streams clearly through `codec_type="attachment"` and the
+  attachment tags.
+- In that JSON, the attachment streams do not expose `codec_name`.
+
+This last point is important for FFX: robust detection must not depend on
+attachment `codec_name` being present.
+
+## Detection Guidance
+
+Current known indicators for this format are:
+
+- one or more subtitle streams with `codec_type="subtitle"` and
+  `codec_name="ass"`
+- one or more attachment streams with `codec_type="attachment"`
+- attachment tags that identify embedded fonts, especially
+  `tags.mimetype="font/ttf"`
+- attachment filenames that end in `.ttf`
+
+The pattern can vary. FFX should therefore treat the above as a cluster of
+signals rather than an exact signature tied to one file.
+
+Inference from the observed sample plus FFmpeg documentation:
+
+- MIME matching should not be limited to `font/ttf` alone.
+- The Boruto sample uses `font/ttf`.
+- FFmpeg's Matroska attachment example uses
+  `mimetype=application/x-truetype-font` for a `.ttf` attachment.
+- Detection should therefore normalize multiple TTF-like MIME values rather
+  than depend on a single exact string.
+
+## Processing Expectations In FFX
+
+The format-specific requirements live in
+`requirements/source_file_formats.md`. In practical terms, FFX should:
+
+- recognize the ASS-plus-font-attachment pattern even when attachment probe
+  data is incomplete
+- tell the operator that the pattern was detected and that special handling is
+  being used
+- reject sidecar subtitle import for such sources, because converting or
+  replacing these subtitle tracks with ordinary external text subtitles would
+  break the intended subtitle package
+- continue to allow normal manipulation of the ASS subtitle tracks themselves
+- preserve the font attachment streams unchanged
+
+## FFmpeg Notes
+
+Relevant FFmpeg documentation confirms several behaviors that line up with
+FFX's needs:
+
+- FFmpeg documents `-attach` as adding an attachment stream to the output, and
+  explicitly names Matroska fonts used in subtitle rendering as an example.
+- FFmpeg documents attachment streams as regular streams that are created after
+  the mapped media streams.
+- FFmpeg documents `-dump_attachment` for extracting attachment streams, which
+  is useful for debugging or validating a source file's embedded fonts.
+- FFmpeg's Matroska example requires a `mimetype` metadata tag for attached
+  fonts, which is consistent with using attachment tags as detection signals.
+- FFmpeg also notes that attachments are implemented as codec extradata. That
+  helps explain why probe output for attachment streams can look different from
+  ordinary audio, video, and subtitle streams.
+
+Implication for FFX:
+
+- Attachment preservation is not an optional cosmetic feature for this format.
+  It is part of preserving the subtitle package correctly.
+
+## Jellyfin Notes
+
+Jellyfin's documentation also supports keeping this format intact:
+
+- Jellyfin's subtitle compatibility table lists `ASS/SSA` as supported in
+  `MKV` and not supported in `MP4`.
+- Jellyfin notes that when subtitles must be transcoded, they are either
+  converted to a supported format or burned into the video, and burning them in
+  is the most CPU-intensive path.
+- Jellyfin's subtitle-extraction example for `SSA/ASS` first dumps attachment
+  streams and then extracts the ASS subtitle stream, which reflects the real
+  relationship between ASS subtitles and embedded fonts in MKV releases.
+- Jellyfin's font documentation says text-based subtitles require fonts to
+  render properly.
+- Jellyfin's configuration documentation says the web client uses configured
+  fallback fonts for ASS subtitles when other fonts such as MKV attachments or
+  client-side fonts are not available.
+
+Inference from the Jellyfin compatibility tables:
+
+- Keeping this subtitle format in Matroska is the safest interoperability
+  choice for Jellyfin consumers.
+- Converting the subtitle payload to WebVTT would lose styled ASS behavior.
+- Dropping the attachment streams would force client or fallback font
+  substitution and can change appearance or glyph coverage.

+# Source File Formats
+
+This file defines source-file-format-specific processing requirements for FFX.
+It is intended to grow as additional relevant source file types are identified.
+
+The first covered format is Matroska media that contains styled ASS/SSA
+subtitle streams together with embedded font attachments.
+
+## Scope
+
+- Detecting source files that use ASS subtitle streams together with embedded
+  font attachments needed for correct rendering.
+- Defining the required `ffx convert` behavior when this format is present.
+- Preserving the required attachment streams during conversion.
+- Keeping normal subtitle-track manipulation behavior for the ASS subtitle
+  tracks themselves.
+
+## Out Of Scope
+
+- General subtitle behavior for sources that do not carry this pattern.
+- A complete catalog of all source file formats FFX may support later.
+
+## Terms
+
+- `styled ASS source`: a source media file that contains one or more subtitle
+  streams with `codec_type="subtitle"` and `codec_name="ass"` together with
+  one or more font-bearing attachment streams.
+- `font attachment`: an attachment stream whose metadata identifies a font
+  payload, commonly through `tags.mimetype` and attachment filename metadata.
+- `external subtitle feed`: subtitle tracks supplied from separate subtitle
+  files through the existing subtitle-import path.
+- `special attachment subtracks`: the embedded font attachment streams that
+  belong to the styled ASS source pattern.
+
+## Rules
+
+- `SOURCE_FILE_FORMATS-0001`: The system shall recognize the styled ASS source
+  pattern.
+- `SOURCE_FILE_FORMATS-0002`: Recognition shall not depend on fixed stream
+  counts, fixed stream indices, or one exact attachment count.
+- `SOURCE_FILE_FORMATS-0003`: Recognition shall use the best available ffprobe
+  signals. For known subtitle streams this includes
+  `codec_type="subtitle"` together with `codec_name="ass"`.
+- `SOURCE_FILE_FORMATS-0004`: Recognition of the special attachment subtracks
+  shall use attachment-oriented signals such as `codec_type="attachment"` and
+  font-identifying metadata such as `tags.mimetype="font/ttf"` when present.
+- `SOURCE_FILE_FORMATS-0005`: Recognition shall tolerate known ffprobe
+  variation in attachment reporting, including files where attachment streams
+  do not expose a `codec_name` but do expose `codec_type="attachment"` and
+  font-identifying tags.
+- `SOURCE_FILE_FORMATS-0006`: When attachment metadata varies across files,
+  detection shall not depend on one exact MIME string alone. Detection shall
+  be written so the known pattern can vary while still recognizing font
+  attachments.
+- `SOURCE_FILE_FORMATS-0007`: When the styled ASS source pattern is detected,
+  `ffx convert` shall emit an operator-facing message that reports the
+  detection and hints that special subtitle preservation handling is being
+  applied.
+- `SOURCE_FILE_FORMATS-0008`: When the styled ASS source pattern is present on
+  the source file, `ffx convert` shall not process an external subtitle feed.
+  The command shall stop before conversion and report an error that explains
+  that separate subtitle-file import is incompatible with this source format.
+- `SOURCE_FILE_FORMATS-0009`: Normal manipulation of the ASS subtitle streams
+  themselves shall continue to work through the usual selection, ordering,
+  metadata, language, title, and disposition handling paths.
+- `SOURCE_FILE_FORMATS-0010`: The special attachment subtracks shall be
+  preserved in the target media file as-is rather than transcoded,
+  regenerated, or replaced from external sources.
+- `SOURCE_FILE_FORMATS-0011`: Preserving the special attachment subtracks
+  as-is includes retaining the attachment payload and the attachment metadata
+  required by consumers, especially attachment filename and mimetype
+  information.
+- `SOURCE_FILE_FORMATS-0012`: This file shall remain the extension point for
+  additional source-file-format contracts as FFX adds support for more special
+  source formats.
+
+## Acceptance
+
+- A source file matching the observed pattern of embedded ASS subtitles plus
+  font attachments is recognized even when the attachment streams do not carry
+  a `codec_name`.
+- `ffx convert` output contains a clear detection message before the actual
+  conversion work proceeds.
+- If external subtitle import is requested for such a source file, the command
+  fails fast with an explicit error instead of mixing sidecar subtitles into
+  the job.
+- Existing manipulation of the ASS subtitle tracks still works for metadata,
+  titles, languages, ordering, and dispositions.
+- The output media preserves the required font attachment streams and their
+  identifying metadata needed by downstream media players.
