Summary

Part of Rust reporters: moq import capture now takes --report and --echo-path, and its renditions report the encoder fields the catalog cannot count itself.

• Counters: the catalog's Sent registry (rs/moq-mux/src/stats.rs) gains skipped and the latest target bitrate. Capture tracks already enroll in it (both encoders register their renditions through the catalog), so frames, bytes, and keyframes needed nothing new.
• Video skips: the capture channel counts frames a newer one replaced before the loop read them, and the loop reports each read's delta. Counting starts at the first frame an encoder reads, so frames the camera delivers while an encoder is still opening do not register as skips on every reopen.
• Bitrate: video reports its ceiling when an encoder opens, each target the encoder accepts, the ceiling again when an unwatched encoder rests, and its current target on any track the capture moves to after a decoder identity change. Audio reports its encoder's bitrate when the rendition registers and on every set_bitrate.
• CLI: --report and --echo-path no longer refuse capture. A catalog reservation held until Publish::run starts the encoders keeps the stats and echo sections on the first catalog instead of publishing one with no tracks. The report runs beside the encoders, finishing with the final counts or aborting with the capture's error.
• Quest: rewritten to what remains (moq play --echo, the gateways and archive, audio capture skips, and the end-to-end media test), and its Plan records the gateway reporting decision below.
• Merge of main: resolved against always-on capture (moq-dev/moq#7188, moq-dev/moq#7164) and the TS republish (moq-dev/moq#7144): the audio source is now moq_audio::encode::Capture, with_report also arms the republish, and rest() returns the ceiling it applied so the loop reports it.
• Second merge of main: resolved against on-demand audio encoding (moq-dev/moq#7238), keeping the retained-PCM backlog and reporting the encoder's bitrate when the rendition registers, and moved the capture stats test to kio::clock (moq-dev/moq#7027).
• Skips at loop end: when the last viewer leaves, the stream ends, or an encode is abandoned, the capture loop now reports the frames the camera replaced after its last read (from CodeRabbit's review).
• Third merge of main: the relay listener::Io gate this PR added landed on main identically in moq-dev/moq#7559, so the conflict took main's version and the PR no longer touches moq-relay. The other auto-merged files (moq-dev/moq#7627, moq-dev/moq#7398, moq-dev/moq#7559, moq-dev/moq#7560) are orthogonal to the stats hooks.

Impact

• Public API (additive): moq_mux::container::Producer::{report_skipped, report_bitrate}, and the same pair on moq_mux::codec::{h264,h265}::Import. catalog::Producer::stats() now fills skipped and bitrate.
• CLI: import capture --report and import capture --echo-path are accepted.
• Wire: none. Both fields were already in the stats::Rendition schema.

Decisions

Settled by the maintainer on 2026-10-31:

1. Hook names: keep report_skipped(frames) and report_bitrate(rate).
2. Gateway reporting shape: option (a). The report writer moves into moq-mux with the transport passed in as data, and each gateway builder gains with_report/with_echo, so a library user embedding a gateway gets reports too; Stats becoming a library API is accepted. This is remaining work, recorded in the quest's Plan, not done here.

Choices made without asking

• Encoder counters go through the catalog's Sent registry rather than a separate stats() on the moq-video/moq-audio producers, as the quest's plan sketched. The plan assumed the encoders create their tracks directly on the broadcast; they register through the catalog, which already counts frames, bytes, and keyframes, so a second counter set would duplicate them.
• Video skipped counts only frames the source produced that the encoder never saw. A backend's own rate-control skips (openh264 can emit an empty access unit) are not counted: hardware backends pipeline their output, so inputs minus outputs would count in-flight frames as skips.
• Audio skipped stays empty: capture::Samples::gap only flags a drop, without its size. Left in the quest.

Follow-ups

The remaining scope is in the rewritten quest: moq play --echo with viewer counters, --report/--echo-path for the gateways and archive (shape decided above), audio capture skips, and the capture-plus-play media test.

Checks

just fix (no changes) and just check pass on 1175f97. New tests: stats::tests::an_encoder_reports_skips_and_its_latest_target (moq-mux), clock::stats_report_the_target_and_skipped_frames and clock::stats_report_skips_left_when_the_viewer_leaves (moq-video, capture,openh264; the latter fails without its fix), stats_follow_the_target_bitrate (moq-audio), and the capture case in catalog_sections_need_a_catalog_the_cli_builds (moq-cli). Nothing was run against real capture devices. The moved-track bitrate fix has no dedicated test: the in-loop track move needs a decoder identity change without a reopen, which the fake camera does not produce.

Review

Codex gpt-6.1-sol, medium effort, quest review --base origin/main, round 1 of a new session on head 1175f97 (the third main merge, hand-resolved): no findings.

Earlier: on 2a8a28b, a Codex round reported no findings; on ef7bb8e, round 1 found that a capture moving to a new track left its bitrate unset (fixed in ef7bb8e), and round 2 reported no findings.

Online reviews on 2a8a28b: CodeRabbit's one thread (unreported skips when an on-demand capture stops) was fixed in 28310aa and resolved; Pullfrog and the OpenAI review found nothing new. No automated finding is open.

Reviewed commit: ef7bb8e

No actionable bugs found. Reusing the catalog's counters is a sound, simpler direction than maintaining a second encoder registry. Checked capture skip accounting across reopen, accepted target/rest updates and track replacement, audio bitrate reporting, and the CLI catalog gate/report lifecycle; an independent pass covered CLI/audio integration.

Verification limits: static review of changes and relevant surrounding code only; I did not run builds/tests or exercise capture hardware. The decoder-identity track-replacement path would benefit from a dedicated regression test.

✅ No new issues found.

Reviewed changes

• Counters (rs/moq-mux/src/stats.rs, container/producer.rs): Sent gains skipped (accumulating) and bitrate (latest target, 0 filtered to None), reached through new public report_skipped / report_bitrate. Wire unchanged — both fields already exist in hang::stats::Rendition.
• Capture skips (rs/moq-video/src/capture/{channel,mod}.rs, encode/producer.rs): the frame channel counts a frame a newer push replaced before recv took it; the capture loop reports the delta after each successful read, seeding the baseline on its first read so frames replaced during encoder open do not count. The subtraction is safe: the counter is monotonic per open and reported resets with the camera.
• Bitrate reporting (rs/moq-video, rs/moq-audio): apply_target / rest now return the rate they applied, and the loop re-reports the current target on every track it moves to, on open, on each accepted target, and on rest. Audio reports at rendition registration and on every set_bitrate.
• CLI wiring (rs/moq-cli/src/publish.rs, args.rs): Source::Capture holds a catalog::Reserved gate from construction until run drops it, so the stats and echo sections ride the first catalog; with_report / with_echo handle capture, and run races the encoders against report.run() and finishes/aborts the report with the capture's outcome. report_refusal is folded into catalog_refusal, which now returns None for capture.
• Docs / quest: doc/bin/cli.md, doc/concept/stats.md, and quest/m2/stats/{README,rust}.md updated to match the widened scope and the recorded gateway-reporting decision.

I traced the report/encode race (report aborts with the capture error, finishes with the final counts otherwise), the gate lifetime against Stats::new and announce, and the skipped-delta accounting across camera reopens and mid-loop track moves; no behavioral issues found. The PR body already notes the missing dedicated tests for the moved-track bitrate report and the CLI gate wiring.

Walkthrough

The changes add skipped-frame and target-bitrate fields to track statistics and report those values from audio and video encoders. Capture channels count frames replaced before receipt, and capture producers report skip counts and successfully applied bitrate values. The CLI now permits reports and echo paths for capture catalogs and runs the report task with the capture encoders. Documentation and the Rust stats plan are updated to describe the reporting scope.

Merge Risk: Low · up to ef7bb

Skipped-frame statistics can undercount when on-demand capture stops. Capture remains usable; the reporting gap can be addressed as a follow-up.

Explanation

The title "feat(cli): report capture stats and solicit feedback from capture" matches the main change. The CLI import capture now accepts --report and --echo-path, and the moq-mux, moq-video, and moq-audio changes add the encoder reporting (skipped frames and target bitrate) that the report uses. The title is specific and single-sentence, and it names the CLI scope.

send `camera.skipped() - reported` through `producer.report_skipped`. Preserve

Automated review by review (OpenAI)

Reviewed commit: 2a8a28b

No new actionable bugs found. Compared with my ef7bb8e review, separating the main merge from the capture changes. The remaining-skip flush in rs/moq-video/src/encode/producer.rs:837-841 addresses CodeRabbit's existing finding; it preserves the first-read baseline and has a last-viewer-leaves regression test. Also checked the audio bitrate hook's relocation into Reserved::encode and the websocket-gated relay re-export.

Direction remains sound: keep the catalog as the single counter registry, and finish skip accounting at the capture-loop boundary rather than add another reporting subsystem. No findings from my previous review remain open.

Verification limits: static review of the update and relevant surrounding code only. I did not run builds/tests or exercise capture devices.

Reviewed changes

• Reported the camera's remaining skips when the capture loop stops: after the inner loop exits, capture_loop now reports camera.skipped() - reported before dropping the camera, so replacements after the last read count when the last viewer leaves, the stream ends, or an encode is abandoned, while the None baseline keeps startup replacements excluded.
• Added clock::stats_report_skips_left_when_the_viewer_leaves, which reads a frame, drops the viewer, replaces a frame, and asserts the catalog ends with skipped == 1.
• Merged main (on-demand audio encoding and Backlog, TS republish), preserving the audio bitrate report at rendition registration and on set_bitrate, and the video target report on open, accepted target, rest, and track moves.
• Gated moq_relay::listener::Io behind feature = "websocket", matching its only consumer in websocket.rs, so a default-features = false relay no longer warns under build.warnings = "deny".

I traced the end-of-loop flush against the on-demand break, camera.read() returning None, an abandoned encode, and a mid-loop track move: the delta cannot underflow and is reported exactly once per open, since reported is scoped to the same camera. The relay re-export matches lib.rs's #[cfg(feature = "websocket")] mod websocket;.
