Type of Contribution

This is a Feature

Current Behavior

n/a

New Behavior

Blueprints can add an estimated time to T-Timers either directly or by anchoring them to a part. The over/under compared to the estimate can then be easily tracked in the UI.

Testing

  • I have added one or more unit tests for this PR
  • I have updated the relevant unit tests
  • No unit test changes are needed for this PR

Affected areas

This PR stores extra T-Timer data in mongo/meteor, adds new interfaces to blueprints integration and timing calculation to the job-worker.

Add three new methods to IPlaylistTTimer interface:
- clearEstimate() - Clear both manual estimates and anchor parts
- setEstimateAnchorPart(partId) - Set anchor part for automatic calculation
- setEstimateTime(time, paused?) - Manually set estimate as timestamp
- setEstimateDuration(duration, paused?) - Manually set estimate as duration

When anchor part is set, automatically queues RecalculateTTimerEstimates job.
Manual estimates clear anchor parts and vice versa.

Updated TTimersService to accept JobContext for job queueing capability.
Updated all blueprint context instantiations and tests.

Implements segment budget timing for T-Timer estimate calculations in
recalculateTTimerEstimates(). When a segment has a budgetDuration set,
the function now:

- Uses the segment budget instead of individual part durations
- Tracks budget consumption as parts are traversed
- Ignores budget timing if the anchor is within the budget segment
  (anchor part uses normal part duration timing)

This matches the front-end timing behavior in rundownTiming.ts and
ensures server-side estimates align with UI countdown calculations
for budget-controlled segments.
