With --app, pixelpass mirrors the default-sink monitor (whole desktop) until the
chosen app's streams route, and restores that loopback if the app's audio later
stops. That fallback captures everything playing — including a voice call the
sharer is in — so a caller watching the share can hear themselves echoed back
(peerspeak bug A23: the per-app pick alone is best-effort, not a guarantee).
- New --strict-audio flag (HostOpts.strict_audio): with --app, never load the
default-sink loopback (not at startup, not on LastRoutedStreamGone). The viewer
hears only the chosen app, and silence when it's quiet — never the rest of the
desktop. No effect without --app; standalone best-effort behavior is unchanged.
- New app_audio JSON event ({"event":"app_audio","state":"routed"|"lost"}),
emitted whenever --app is set, so a front-end (peerspeak) can tell when the
chosen app's audio is actually live vs. dropped and warn accordingly.
- Banner capture summary shows "(strict)" when active.
Unknown-event-tolerant: pixelpass's own --gui child parser skips lines it can't
deserialize, so app_audio doesn't disturb it. 10 tests (+2: wire-shape + banner),
clippy --all-targets clean.

A newer rustfmt wraps over-long match arms and call expressions that the
version main was last formatted with left on one line. Pure formatting,
no semantic change — split out so the friends-list feature commits stay
focused on real changes.

Both host and viewer hardcoded presets::N0, pinning every session to the
bundled relays (which on iroh rc.0 are the canary-grade defaults). Add a
shared common::endpoint::bind() that keeps N0's DNS discovery + crypto but
swaps in a RelayMode::Custom single-relay map when --relay (or the
PIXELPASS_RELAY env var, so GUI children inherit it) is set.
Lets users point at a self-hosted relay or staging today; the production
relays (*.relay.iroh.network) speak a newer protocol that rc.0 rejects
("invalid iroh-relay version header"), so they only become usable — and
the default — after an iroh GA bump. Verified: override connects cleanly
through staging; bad URLs are rejected before any network work.

Add a host-global quality knob (Discord-style) so the sharer can trade
resolution + bitrate for upload bandwidth. Quality is host-global by
design: one encode pipeline fans out to every viewer, so per-viewer
quality is out of scope (it would kill the broadcast fanout).
- New `--quality source|high|medium|low|auto` (ValueEnum) bundling a
(max-height, bitrate, fps) tuple per preset; `auto` derives the preset
from the saved bandwidth pre-flight (safe_mbps / viewer cap), falling
back to `medium` when unmeasured. Default is auto; the interactive
Host branch shows a picker when --quality is omitted (mirrors pick_app).
- `--max-height N` raw override; `--bitrate`/`--framerate` changed to
Option so an explicit flag overrides just that field of the preset
(precedence rule), leaving the rest of the preset intact.
- host/quality.rs: Preset table + resolve(); pure resolve_auto() split
from the config read for testability. 5 unit tests lock preset
pass-through, the Auto ladder, the unmeasured fallback, and override
precedence.
- pipeline::build_args inserts `videoscale ! video/x-raw,height=N,
pixel-aspect-ratio=1/1,width=[2,8192,2]` only for non-Source presets.
PAR 1/1 forces a proportional downscale (without it videoscale keeps
full width and squashes PAR — no bandwidth win); the even-stepped width
range + even-rounded height satisfy H.264 4:2:0. EffectiveQuality is
threaded capture -> wayland/x11 -> pipeline; max_viewers is now sized
against the effective (post-preset) bitrate.
- Banner gains a quality line (preset label + ≤Np/kbps/fps + provenance).
- deps.rs checks `videoscale`; smoke-pipeline.sh adds a 1080->480
downscale check asserting an even width below source.
- README: --quality preset table, Auto behavior, host-global note,
--max-height/--bitrate/--framerate override precedence.
