High-FPS Recording & Codec Control

Stable 60fps Multi-Source — Standard mode now records display + window/app sources much more reliably at 60 fps, with reduced encoder backpressure stalls
Higher-Priority Video Writing — Video writing uses higher-priority scheduling and non-blocking readiness retry behavior
Optimized Capture Routing — Screen capture routing avoids extra work on the hot path, reducing recording overhead
Better Default Bitrates — Default H.264 / HEVC screen capture bitrates are better tuned for screen content instead of camera-style footage

Per-Source Overlays — Live CAP, REC, and BP overlays in standard mode show capture rate, recorded rate, and backpressure per source
Accurate FPS Summary — Top bar FPS summary now reflects a single real source pair instead of mixing max values from different sources
Composite Mode Metrics — Composite mode now shows the same live capture / record / backpressure metrics on the stage
Per-Source Backpressure Tracking — Sink backpressure is tracked per source so it is easier to see which stream is falling behind

Preflight Detection — Risky 60 fps multi-source sessions are detected before recording starts
Adaptive Downscaling — Display, window, and app captures can be downscaled automatically to a safer aggregate pixel budget
Smart Scaling — Display-backed and window-backed captures are handled differently so window framing stays correct
Informational Notices — Adaptive downscaling notices are now informational instead of being surfaced as recording warnings

Consistent Preview — Composite preview now respects the user-selected preview quality setting instead of silently switching quality modes
Higher Idle Quality — Idle composite preview quality is higher and closer to the recording-time preview
Blank Preview Fix — Fixed a regression where starting a composite recording could blank the preview when lower preview quality settings were selected
Improved Frame Draining — Composite recording drains pending rendered frames more reliably, reducing sustained drop behavior during backpressure

Profile Preservation — ProRes 422 Proxy and ProRes 422 LT are preserved end-to-end instead of being collapsed to plain ProRes 422
Adaptive Profile Stepping — Risky multi-source ProRes sessions can automatically step down to a lighter profile when auto-adjustment is enabled
Higher Automatic Floor — ProRes 422 LT is now the automatic floor instead of dropping all the way to Proxy
Auto Adjust Profile — New toggle lets you decide whether Lumary may lower the selected ProRes profile at runtime
Exact Profile Lock — Disable auto-adjustment to preserve the exact ProRes profile you selected

Codec Transparency — Session manifests now record both requestedVideoCodec (user-selected) and actualVideoCodec (resolved at runtime)
Composite Recorder Stats — Composite recording now tracks capture, write, and backpressure metrics for the composited output stream instead of reusing source-level numbers
Composite Overlay Accuracy — Composite preview overlays now reflect the actual composite recorder path

Composite preview quality is now user-controlled from the existing preview quality setting, just like standard mode
Standard mode and composite mode both surface recording health more consistently
Session issue reporting is clearer for sustained frame-drop scenarios
