Start a newly selected production listener on offline rematch, reuse an existing listener, and cleanly release its transport state when disabled. Balance Winsock ownership and failed starts. Native production runtime and four focused tests pass, including six isolated real listener/bulk-write launch cases. Tracking: beads-eio.3.385.
Reject invalid index products and unsafe paths, cap encoded/decoded residency, recover allocation and partial worker-start failures, release GL movie textures with their context, and serialize diagnostics through the presenter. Real SDL decode/restart/failure test passes and SDL2 C seam compiles warning-free. Guest/present timestamp ownership remains a separate design gate. Tracking: beads-eio.3.388.
Use a bounded atomic snapshot and presenter-owned reset across all backends. Readers sort their own snapshots; report host API completion cadence. Add deterministic and concurrent reader/reset coverage.
Bound reservations against total retained residency, skip decoding pinned images, and report complete repeated loads truthfully. Cover cap reductions and publication retry in both formats. Tracking: beads-eio.3.386.
Both preload functions now take an aggregate decoded-byte cap and a thread
cap (runtime: 512 MiB, 4 threads). Each image is probed and its RGBA
reserved against the cap before decoding; per-image limits follow the
pack's decode budget, which is no longer grown to usage (pinned images sit
outside it, and outside the Duck 512-entry cap). The pool (texture_pack_
preload.hpp) joins every started thread on unwinding, survives thread
creation failure, and catches worker exceptions. Images not preloaded are
left to the asynchronous budgeted path instead of being marked failed, and
HdTexturePreloadResult reports loaded / over-cap / failed / worker errors
with a complete-or-partial status. The Beetle async worker no longer lets
allocation failures escape its thread entry.
Tests cover both formats: complete preload, over-cap skip with on-demand
fallback, malformed images, injected worker and thread-creation failures,
and budget reservation bounds.

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.

Some PlayStation 1 titles implement trivial rejection by folding the sign bits of projected vertex screen coordinates across triangle or quad primitives with a chain of AND instructions. Without adjusting these checks during widescreen presentation, geometry in the newly revealed horizontal area is still rejected by the original 4:3 bounds. Rather than embedding title specific instruction patterns directly into the recompiler, this introduces a generalized `[[widescreen.cull.sxy]]` configuration schema within `game.toml`.
Game configurations can now declare multi vertex trivial rejection sequences by their exact AND instruction words, vertex registers and the branch that consumes the result. The loader derives the expected chain from those words and rejects any other shape. Each AND keeps its original value except for the horizontal sign bit, which survives only while that vertex lies beyond the revealed left edge, so vertical and right side rejection are preserved and 4:3 output is bit identical. Shifted coordinate lower edge comparisons reuse the existing `screen_x_sites` handling through a new `slti rt, x, 0` form instead of adding a separate site family.
Full parity is maintained between recompiled code and the dirty RAM interpreter by sharing the same runtime helper and validating every fold and consumer instruction word on both paths, leaving mismatching overlay variants untouched. This eliminates hardcoded game logic from the recompiler while giving titles clean geometry retention in expanded aspect ratios.
