One actionable planning gap: WHEP codec selection needs to honor the fallback tier before rendition ranking can deliver the stated behavior (inline).
Direction: the optional boolean is a proportionate solution for two tiers; keeping adaptive ladder rungs outside the compatibility-fallback tier avoids unnecessary ranking machinery. This PR changes quest documents only, with no current API or wire change.
Verification: inspected all three changed files and the browser selector, catalog schemas, Rust ranking, RTMP/FLV, WHEP, and transcoder selection paths. Static review only; tests and quest check were not run.

[P2] Include WHEP codec selection in the plan
WHEP does not take the first rendition it supports across codecs: Session::handle_media (rs/moq-rtc/src/session.rs:372-395) chooses the first negotiated payload type, then pick_video (rs/moq-rtc/src/egress.rs:233-241) filters ranked() to that codec. catalog_codecs() still advertises both tiers. A peer that supports an H.265 source and its H.264 fallback can therefore select H.264 first and subscribe to the fallback even after the proposed ranking change. Replace the “callers ... need no change” assumption with an explicit WHEP selection step that prefers a supported non-fallback across negotiated codecs, and add a regression case where both codecs are offered but the fallback codec comes first.

Correct the claim that bestRendition already matches Rust's tie ordering.
bestRendition retains the first entry when pixel area and bitrate are equal. Rust's Video::ranked preserves name order for exact ties. The replacement must add the name-order tie-break.

The previous WHEP P2 is addressed in the plan: quest/m1/rendition-fallback.md:38-42 now requires selection across negotiated video codecs, with the fallback-codec-first regression case at lines 50-51. The automatic/manual distinction, stalled-source case, RTMP multitrack exception, and JS exact-tie clarification are consistent with the surrounding code.
Direction: the optional boolean remains a proportionate two-tier design; explicitly handling WHEP codec choice closes the gap that ranking alone could not cover. No additional preference machinery is needed for this scope.
Verification: inspected all three changed documents and the relevant WHEP, browser selection, Rust ranking, and RTMP/FLV paths. Static review only; tests and quest check were not run. These are planning fixes, not implemented runtime behavior.

Reviewed SHA: 852a0d4
Reviewed the substantive change from fallback booleans to signed preference tiers since 2a782b0, excluding merged-main changes. One new planning gap: tier assignment for generated adaptive rungs (inline).
Direction: strict numeric tiers fit the stated three-codec ladder; renditions intended to adapt together must share a tier. The previous WHEP cross-codec selection fix, manual override, and stalled-source cases remain covered by the plan.
Verification: inspected all three changed documents and relevant browser selection, Rust ranking/schema, WHEP, and transcode catalog/pipeline code. Static review only; tests and quest check were not run. This PR changes plans, not runtime behavior.

[P2] Plan tier assignment for nonzero-preference transcode ladders
Leaving generated rungs at the default 0 does not preserve adaptation when the source uses the newly supported 1 tier. With Config.source enabled, rs/moq-transcode/src/catalog.rs::populate retains the source config, while rung_entry builds fresh entries. A supported H.264 source at 1 plus generated H.264 rungs at 0 would therefore discard every rung before bitrate selection, even when only a rung fits the bandwidth budget. Include a transcode tier-assignment step so renditions intended to adapt together share a tier, keep that assignment current on source catalog updates, and add a nonzero-source/constrained-budget regression case. Unconditionally retaining 0 works only while the source is also at the default tier.

Agreed. moq-transcode's rungs now inherit the source's preference: rung_entry copies it the way it copies optimize_for_latency, and the per-snapshot refresh next to inherit_stalled keeps it current. I added a test case for a source at preference 1 under a budget that fits only a rung. Fixed in dd12573.

The previous tier-assignment P2 is addressed in the plan: quest/m1/rendition-preference.md:33-36 now requires generated rungs to inherit the source's preference and refresh it on catalog updates; lines 69-70 add the nonzero-source/constrained-budget regression case. This covers both fresh rung creation and carried-over entries in the existing transcode pipeline. The prior WHEP cross-codec selection requirement and regression case remain intact.
Direction: keeping adaptive rungs in their source's tier preserves within-ladder ABR while retaining strict preference between ladders. The fix fits the existing catalog refresh path without additional ranking machinery.
Verification: inspected the delta, related quest text, browser selection, and transcode catalog/pipeline paths. Static review only; tests and quest check were not run. This PR changes the plan, not runtime behavior.

Plans Rendition preference in m1. Each hang video rendition gets an optional
preference: a signed integer, absent means 0, higher wins. Automatic selection (<moq-watch>,hang::catalog::Video::ranked, WHEP's codec choice) keeps only the highest preference that the viewer can decode, then picks by target and bitrate inside that tier as it does today. Motivation: a viewer should only subscribe to a compatibility transcode (H.265 republished as H.264, marked-1) when it can't decode the source.Also points JS rendition ranking at the new ordering.
Public API / wire impact: none in this PR, which only adds a quest. The planned change adds one optional catalog field, so it is backwards compatible.
Decision paper trail
Can the catalog already express a preferred rendition? No. Using
stalledfor this misuses the field and collapses a transcoded ladder to its lowest rung.Name it after the cluster's
cost? No. Routing cost chooses between paths to the same bytes, while renditions are different pictures. An honest "produced on demand" cost would also mark moq-transcode's rungs, so capable viewers could never step down.Shape? The first pass chose
fallback: bool. On takeover the maintainer asked whether that is generic enough.fallback: bool: two tiers only. For an AV1 > H.265 > H.264 ladder, today's area-then-bitrate sort picks H.264 over an AV1 rung of the same size, because the H.264 bitrate is higher.@qualityRanking, HLSSCORE): the publisher would rank every rung by hand, and ABR still needs size and bitrate to step down.Name and direction? Prior art: DASH
@selectionPriority(strict across per-codec Adaptation Sets, higher wins), DASH@qualityRanking(lower wins, within a set), HLSSCORE(higher wins, quality traded against bandwidth), SDP payload order, MSF (no field).preference, signed, higher wins: a new preferred ladder is1without renumbering, and a fallback is-1tier, unsigned, lower winsselectionPriority: collides with track sendpriorityorder/rank: read as a total or display order, andrankcollides with moq-lite's rankHow does preference interact with bandwidth and
stalled? Strict tiers. A supported source wins even over a budget that only fits the lower tier, and even while the source is stalled. Preference is about decodability only.Who respects it? Browser and Rust (
<moq-watch>,Video::ranked, plus a WHEP codec-choice fix). Video only. moq-ffi, libmoq, and the bindings wait until a native player needs it.Milestone? m1. Docs? Inline only (hang draft,
