enricobuehler	56f9c8c4b4	feat(core,android): Automatic bitrate caps at the client decode limit, not the link ceiling ... The Automatic bitrate controller only reacted to network signals (loss, capture→received OWD, FEC-unrecoverable frames, jump-to-live flush), so on a fast LAN feeding a slower mobile HW decoder it slow-started straight to the link-probe ceiling and parked there — backlogging frames inside the decoder, where those signals never register, and choking it. Reported on a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1: Automatic pinned ~500 Mbps with unusable latency. Feed the client's decode-stage latency (received→decoded) into the controller as a first-class signal, symmetric with the existing OWD one: a rise over its rolling-min baseline ends the slow-start climb and, sustained over two windows, backs the rate ×0.7 down to the real decode limit — so Automatic settles where the decoder keeps up. - core/abr: on_window gains decode_mean_us; a decode_means rolling-min baseline + DECODE_RISE_US (15 ms) fold a decode rise into the bad-window logic. - core/client: per-frame report_decode_us accumulator, drained to a window mean by the data-plane pump; wants_decode_latency() gate (Automatic, non-PyroWave) lets embedders skip the measurement where it's ignored. Re-target log prints the driving signals. - android/decode: report the decode stage on both the sync and async decode paths, HUD-independent, measured from the AU leaving next_frame (so codec-input backpressure is included) and excluding the vsync present wait. Apple/Windows report_decode_us calls to follow. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-07-15 17:28:11 +02:00
enricobuehler	9b7fc127ef	feat(core): Automatic bitrate scales to measured link capacity — probe ceiling + slow start ... The ABR ceiling was the negotiated start rate, so an 'Automatic' session was permanently boxed at the 20 Mbps default no matter the link — the most user-visible cap left after the transport work lifted the client receive ceiling to ~4.8 Gbps wire. - Startup link-capacity probe: ~2 s into an Automatic session the pump fires one speed-test burst (2 Gbps target, 800 ms) over the existing ProbeRequest machinery; delivered wire throughput x0.7 (FEC + variance headroom) becomes the controller's climb ceiling via set_ceiling(). Old hosts decline (all-zero reply) or never answer (a 6 s timeout clears the stuck probe state so LossReports resume) — the ceiling then stays negotiated, exactly the old behavior. PUNKTFUNK_ABR_PROBE=0 opts out. - Slow start: until the first congestion signal, every cooled clean window DOUBLES the rate toward the ceiling (20 Mbps -> 640 Mbps in ~10 s) instead of +6% per ~10 s (which would have taken ~10 minutes). Any congestion signal ends it for good; classic AIMD takes over. - Faster, severity-aware AIMD: a SEVERE window (unrecoverable frame, jump-to-live flush, or >=6% loss) backs off x0.7 immediately instead of waiting two windows; ordinary congestion (2-6% loss, OWD rise) keeps the two-window fuse. Additive climbs need 6 clean windows (~4.5 s, was ~10 s); the change cooldown drops 3 s -> 1.5 s. - PUNKTFUNK_VBV_FRAMES now also scales the direct-NVENC VBV (Windows + Linux, previously hardwired to 1 frame) — parity with AMF/VAAPI/QSV. Each accepted step still costs an encoder rebuild + IDR on the host; in-place rate reconfigure (NvEncReconfigureEncoder / AMF dynamic properties / Vulkan per-frame RC) is the planned follow-up that makes stepping free. Controller tests rewritten to the new policy (severity classes, slow-start climb, ceiling semantics; 144 green). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-07-14 19:28:11 +02:00
enricobuehler	4839c0e6f6	fix(ci): windows clippy + rustfmt debt from the D3D11VA push ... The windows workflow has been red since a69a83b5: clippy 1.96 rejects the two field-reassign-with-default view-desc initializers in video_d3d11.rs (now struct literals), and with clippy failing first, the rustfmt step never ran — cargo fmt --all had genuine misses queued up in video_d3d11.rs / pf-presenter d3d11.rs + vk.rs / core abr.rs + client.rs (plus this session's config.rs). Formatting only beyond the two initializers; no behaviour change. Verified: clippy -p pf-client-core --all-targets -D warnings clean on the RTX Windows box, cargo fmt --all --check clean, core lib tests green.

enricobuehler	8e6e8bb25c	feat(core,host): adaptive bitrate — mid-stream encoder re-targeting when set to Automatic ... New SetBitrate (0x05) / BitrateChanged (0x06) control messages: the host clamps like the Hello request, acks the resolved rate, and rebuilds the ENCODER ONLY in place (same mode, first new-rate frame is an IDR — the proven mode-switch resync, minus the pipeline churn). The client side is an AIMD controller (core abr.rs) in the data-plane pump, armed only when the user's bitrate is Automatic (Hello bitrate_kbps == 0): ×0.7 after two bad 750 ms windows (FEC-unrecoverable frames, ≥2% loss, one-way-delay rise above its rolling baseline — the pre-loss bufferbloat signal off the clock-skew handshake — or a jump-to-live flush), ~+6% after ~10 s clean, ceiling = the session's starting rate, 3 s cooldown, self-disables against a host that never acks (older build). Division of labour: adaptive FEC keeps answering fast random loss; bitrate now answers persistent congestion, closing the FEC death-spiral gap. The web-console sample reports the live rate. Also: join_host_port() brackets bare IPv6 literals before SocketAddr parsing (parse-side IPv6 groundwork, pairs with the next commit).
