Changing the internal resolution in the in-game menu did nothing until a
relaunch: ovl_video_from() never copied it, and the restart bits forced
a relaunch for it anyway. Supersampling (the [video] supersample
multiplier) had no player setting at all.
- PsxHostVideoSettings gains supersample_milli; internal resolution and
supersample are live changes (PSX_VIDEO_LIVE_RESOLUTION). Only the
legacy integer supersampling factor still needs a relaunch.
- psx_video_apply_live resolves the new scale and calls
gl_renderer_set_internal_scale_live(): it moves the step ceiling
(clamped like the boot scale) and queues the step through the dynamic
resolution machinery, recorded in stream order with the render thread.
The dynamic-resolution controller is retargeted to the new ceiling.
- settings.toml [video] supersample is the player's pick (1.0..4.0).
- The in-game menu round-trips internal_resolution and, with a launcher
that has RECOMP_LAUNCHER_HAS_SUPERSAMPLE, supersample_milli.

Replacement images were decoded on demand by a single low-priority
worker, so a texture first seen mid-race appeared late and could be
evicted again. When replacements are on, configuring a pack now decodes
every unambiguous image (DuckStation and Beetle formats) across all
cores and pins it in RAM before the game draws; pinned images are never
evicted by the decode budget. Logs the count, size and time.

For title-specific lighting presets ([video] post_shader):
- `input <sampler> depth`: view depth sz (GTE screen z) of the presented frame,
R32F at window size, rebuilt from the surfaces' PGXP depth; 0 where nothing
3D drew. Only built while a loaded chain reads it.
- `input <sampler> history`: the pass's own target from the last real frame
(trails, temporal filters); generated frames do not update it.
- `u_time` (seconds since the chain loaded) and `u_proj` (latest GTE
projection: 240/H, screen centre in uv, aspect) in every pass.
- Live uniforms: psx_host_set_post_uniform(name, x, y, z, w) sets a preset
`uniform` from game state (e.g. a light source projected to the screen);
the preset value applies until the first call.
- Debug: TCP {"cmd":"post_shader"} reports the loaded preset, its parse status
and the live values; {"cmd":"post_shader","path":"..."} reloads a preset
(or loads another) without restarting, for shader work.
docs/POST_EFFECTS.md documents the inputs and the uniforms.
Used by a lighting preset for R4 (sun and tunnel light shafts, lamp halos,
speed streaks, paint reflections on the player's car from live car pose),
about 0.7 ms of GPU at 1080p on an RTX 3060.

A title can draw its own heads-up display on the host side (ImGui, like the
in-game overlay provider), once per presented frame -- real and generated
frames -- under the in-game menu and with the same thread and GL rules as
psx_host_overlay_set_draw_cb. Registered once at title activation; NULL
unregisters. No callback registered: no change in behaviour.
Used by a modern race HUD for R4 (lap, timing, tachometer, track map) drawn
at window resolution instead of the 320x240 native one.

Keep selector zero stock and seal all choices until the next session restart. Refuse nonzero online activation, scope non-stock save states by frozen choices, and preserve original instruction guards when combined with effective-address adapters. Use overlay ABI34 on current master without the old menu dependency stack.
Extract the audited adapters and card transport onto master without the held selector/menu stack. Keep adapters and codecs tied to mod activation, use overlay ABI 33, retain rejected-load protection on codec registration, and refuse extended-card codecs in netplay before frame zero. Preserve default atomic save publication and guest-visible write failures.
* feat(widescreen): continue framebuffer-feedback sprites into native-wide bands
Titles tag a 15-bit sprite that copies a framebuffer 1:1 (gpu_ws_tag_feedback_rect / psx_mod_tag_feedback_rect). Where it touches the draw area's edge, gpu.c emits band spans and the new optional backend op wide_feedback_rect (GL incl. render thread, software) samples the source buffer's wide surface. Band texels count as bit 15 set, as the centre does once the trail blends.
The software rasterizer now writes the texel's bit 15 into the framebuffer, and wide_full can dump the surface alpha ("alpha":1).
* fix(widescreen): quantise band feedback like packed VRAM
The centre samples 5-bit packed VRAM each frame; the band copy read the 8-bit wide surface and modulated with /128, so the bands drifted ~3 grey levels brighter and left a step at the 4:3 edge. Truncate like PACK_FS and modulate like TEX_FS.
* Reject fully clipped sprites before extending feedback margins
* Complete isolated resident and PGXP fixture collaborators
* Preserve existing line endings in the review fixes

Keep temporary keyboard profiles separate from saved bindings. Add optional persistent mouse capture with ordered release/focus/reset handling, and let offline sources represent an unplugged port without falling back to physical input. Existing capture and source defaults remain intact. Beads: beads-9wg8 and beads-eio.19.18.
Renderers that test a 16-bit screen X with an unsigned compare against a width kept in a register (often a loaded clip bound) reject every negative X, so widening the bound only reveals the right band. A screen_x site on sltu now routes through psx_ws_cull_sltu_band: -4m <= (int16)SX < W while widened, identity at 4:3. Four margins keep large near polygons whose corners all lie past one margin; an unbounded left side overflowed a renderer's fixed primitive lists. Covered by ws_cull_screen_x_hi_codegen_test; documented in WIDESCREEN.md.
P1: quality_launcher_apply is now a pure preset -> rows mapping
(psxq::rows_from_runtime plus startup constants); it never writes the live
globals. The in-game menu publishes only thread-safe callbacks: that
mapper, and a re-detect that returns this session's detection (a fresh
probe needs the GL context and mutates the run's state, so it stays in the
pre-game launcher). Summary/reason strings and the detection are fixed on
the main thread at menu setup; settings_get reads only the main-thread
snapshot.
P2: psxq::MenuSelection keeps what the player selected versus what is live.
A pick's next-launch rows and netplay-deferred rows stay selected for the
next seed until the live value matches; other rows follow live. The host
classification moves to psxq::classify_launcher/row_differs (same rules).
Tests: quality_presets_test test_ingame_menu_host_path runs the review's
fixture through the host get/pick/apply/save path (Ultra -> High, then
Antialiasing = NONE; a governed edit is still Custom from High; a netplay-
deferred row stays selected). menu_quality_callbacks_test guards the
draw-thread callbacks against runtime writes and stateful calls.

- [quality.*] accepts only the supported keys (quality_key_supported):
twelve player-editable ones (masked, copied, classified, applied) and
nine preset-only ones (no settings.toml form; applied on select). Any
other key, e.g. vsync or renderer, is a load error.
- Picking a preset now also applies bloom, texture LOD, anisotropy, FMV
chroma smoothing and dithering (quality_apply_video_globals).
- The frontends flag Custom on any tracked row; the host counts only rows
of keys the title governs (psxq::launcher_custom_edit), so Antialiasing
no longer turns Ultra into Custom when no preset sets it.
Tests cover the rejection, every player key's masking/copy, and the
classification cases.

The boot launcher, soft-return launcher and the in-game menu's live
settings now save settings.toml through psxq::settle_save:
- a one-run PSX_QUALITY override never persists: governed keys and the
quality_* keys come from disk, so the previous preset or Custom values
survive even when the boot seed was built empty;
- a governed live edit (psxq::live_edit) or launcher Custom becomes
Custom from the current base, with the edited values, and survives
restart instead of being masked away;
- a launcher pick records the preset; unrelated edits keep it.
Tests reproduce both review cases through a settings.toml round trip.
