fix(lianli): restore wireless RGB immediately after PWM upkeep - #284
Conversation
Fan-speed packets can interrupt direct RGB playback and expose the receiver's onboard rainbow effect. Re-send the latest frame after the complete PWM batch, before clock and pairing traffic delay recovery. Keep a reusable cache limited to the discovered topology, retain black frames from pause and stop, and clear it on initialization. Share the normal RGB encoder to preserve cluster routing and packet pacing. Verify latest-frame recovery, black frames, reversed fan chains, input normalization, and connection reset without changing output cadence. Co-Authored-By: Nova (GPT-6) <noreply@openai.com>
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe wireless driver caches normalized RGB frames, reuses one RGB transfer path for live frames and upkeep, and restores cached frames after PWM commands. Tests cover ordering, black and empty frames, topology normalization, and session reset. The specification documents the recovery sequence. ChangesWireless RGB frame recovery

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The driver restores cached RGB after PWM and before pairing traffic, reducing receiver rainbow flicker. Tests do not combine recovery with SaveConfig or bind traffic, leaving a bounded ordering-regression risk suitable for follow-up. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 5✅ Passed checks (5 passed)

What this changes
Wireless fan upkeep now restores the latest RGB frame immediately after sending fan-speed commands. The receiver can briefly fall back to its onboard rainbow effect when PWM traffic interrupts direct RGB playback; recovery now runs in the same upkeep batch, before clock and pairing traffic.
Why
The upstream driver reports the same behavior in issue 83 and restores cached direct colors in PR 149. Hypercolor already maintained PWM and clock traffic but depended on the next render frame to restore RGB.
The cache retains only pixels within the discovered topology, including black frames from pause and stop. A new connection clears it. Both ordinary output and recovery use the same encoder, preserving cluster routing, reversed fan chains, packet pacing, and the existing 30 FPS ceiling. Streaming mode is still armed once per session.

The rebase onto the merged Studio changes preserved the complete tested tree.
Notes for reviewers
All PWM commands precede all recovery RGB commands, so no later PWM packet in the batch can interrupt a cluster already restored. Discovery timeout behavior is unchanged. The change addresses wireless fan lighting; LCD image transport is separate.
