[4:53][Unpack the new :art into a dedicated directory where the artist may dump art][:admin]
[7:13][Show off item_template.png and character_template.png][:drawing]

[19:02][:Run our PNG reader on character_hero.png and crash in ConsumeSize()][:compression :parsing]
[20:58][Note in ParsePNG() the need to handle BTYPE0 blocks that straddle IDAT chunk boundaries][:parsing]
[22:52][Step through ParsePNG() to see that BFINAL does not get set][:parsing :run]
[28:28][Let it :run to completion, writing out our image][:parsing]
[28:55][View character_hero.bmp to see that it looks correct but for the alpha channel][:drawing]

[43:52][:Run it successfully on hand_skeleton.png][:parsing]
[44:17][Inspect the output image to see that it looks correct, and wonder if Photoshop's PNG encoder is busted][:drawing]
[46:55][Remove stale code from WriteImageTopDownRGBA() and note in ParsePNG() to figure out why we can't rely on BFINAL being set to 1 on the last chunk of Photoshop-exported PNG files][:parsing]
[49:47][Consult stb_image.h for insight into its consumption loop][:research]
[53:51][Set up to test our PNG image with stb_image.h][:compression :parsing]

[1:08:59][Break on the FlushByte() call in ParsePNG() and realise that it may be flushing more than a byte][:parsing :run]

[1:22:07][Consider supporting buffered :"error handling" in the PNG decoder]
[1:24:01][Create handmade_stream.cpp to contain all the stream consumption code for our PNG reader][:parsing]
[1:32:03][Introduce Outf() to write errors into our stream, augmenting the stream struct with Errors and stream_chunk with File and LineNumber][:"error handling"]
[1:38:49][Make test_png.cpp initialise an Info and Error stream, pass them to ReadEntireFile() and WriteImageTopDownRGBA(), and write those stream to file using a new DumpStreamToCRT()][:"error handling" :"file io"]

[1:46:29][@ivereadthesequel][Q: So what is the focus now? This logging / error system?][:"error handling"]
[1:48:18][@tonelessr][Q: I haven't been following the PNG streams closely, but how satisfied are you with the code for the reader?][:parsing]
[1:49:13][@lvias][Q: Could you explain the bug that was solved again?][:parsing]
[1:51:22][@flyinginthedark][Q: Is TODO comment still in the code?]
[1:51:57][@tonelessr][Q: Any plans to switch to LLVM anytime in the series?]
[1:52:41][@AsafGartner][Q: If Visual Studio can load PNG files, maybe it can display BMP files with alpha?]
[1:53:42][Enable WriteImageTopDownRGBA() to conditionally replace the alpha pixels with all black, and the program to output this as an extra BMP file][:parsing]
[1:58:38][:Run it and inspect our two output BMP files][:parsing]
[1:59:00][Introduce MulAlpha() to composite the alpha and non-alpha pixels][:parsing]
[2:03:06][:Run it to see our premultiplied output][:parsing]
[2:03:49][@tonelessr][Q: This is off-topic, but will there be any blog posts on Molly Rocket for any of the projects anytime? Kind of miss those]
[2:04:05][@cynokron][Q: I am confused why you shift the multiply down by 8 bits. Wouldn't you want to mask with 0xFF?]
