+### Fixed (hardening on the PR before release)
+
+- **Skipped items ride along whole** — timeline items without a readable media
+  file path now emit a full-range keep (video + mirrored audio) so the
+  assembled variant never silently loses content; only items with no media
+  reference at all are omitted, and the `skipped` reason says so explicitly.
+- **All audio streams are merged before detection** — production MXF often
+  carries one mono PCM stream per channel, and ffmpeg's default stream
+  selection could land on a dead scratch channel, reading entire takes as
+  silence. Detection now merges every audio stream (silence only when ALL
+  channels are silent — Resolve's dialog semantics), with a single-stream
+  fallback if `amerge` refuses the graph. Found by live validation on 5-stream
+  interview masters.
+- **No pointless video decode** — silence detection runs with `-vn`, so 4K
+  ProRes sources no longer decode picture just to scan audio.
+- **Clear failure modes** — a missing ffmpeg binary now reports itself instead
+  of "no silence regions found", and a plan whose keep ranges are empty
+  (source quieter than `threshold_db` throughout) carries an explicit warning
+  and is refused at execution.
+
 ## What's New in v2.62.3
 
 A single grading fix (PR #90, by @Mldphotohraphie), extended and hardened. No
