quest: lean defaults with a release feature; Media Foundation adapter pick - #6835
Plans two follow-ups from #6805, the studio's zero-copy program encode.
Changes
quest/m2/cli-packaging.md (rewritten plan):
Defaults stay lean. moq-cli gains a release feature with capture, play, openh264, vaapi, nvidia, and v4l2 where the platform has it.
Every distribution builds with release, and source builds pass --features release.
Auditing moq-cli's current defaults moves to the pre-cut Cargo feature audit (quest/m2/release/feature-flags.md, added by a separate PR); this quest keeps only the release feature and the distributions.
This replaces the plan to turn capture and play on by default.
pipewire stays out of release.
quest/m3/studio/packaging.md: moq-studio follows the same rule. The Flatpak adds pipewire itself, because it bundles libpipewire.
New quest/m2/mf-encode-adapter.md [M]: Media Foundation enumerates its encoder on the exported texture's adapter (MFT_ENUM_ADAPTER_LUID). On Windows machines with two GPUs, the studio's program then stays on the GPU route instead of being passed over for a readback encoder. It starts after feat(moq-video): export the studio program to the encoder on the GPU #6805 merges.
Decisions (2026-10-26, maintainer)
Which shipped binaries should build with every video backend their platform supports, while plain cargo build stays lean?
✅ Every shipped binary (Recommended)
moq-studio only
How should a release build turn them on?
Release recipe lists features (Recommended)
✅ Umbrella release feature
Where should the Media Foundation adapter pick go?
✅ m2, beside D3D11 import (Recommended)
m1 studio-gpu epic
How should cli-packaging's "turn capture and play on by default" change?
✅ Defaults lean, distributions use release (Recommended)
Keep capture/play default-on
Does release include backends that need a system library at load time (pipewire)?
✅ No, keep the 10-06 decision (Recommended)
Yes, truly all
Where should the release feature work live?
✅ Fold into packaging quests (Recommended)
Own quest
Maintainer note: defaults should skip expensive features or ones that rely on system libraries.
Records the 2026-10-26 decision that defaults skip expensive or
system-library features and a `release` feature turns on every backend a
platform loads without system libraries, in cli-packaging and studio
packaging. Adds an m2 quest for Media Foundation enumerating its encoder on
the exported texture's adapter.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The changes document a CLI release feature set and packaging rules for CLI and Studio artifacts. They also add a Media Foundation encoder proposal for enumerating encoders on the adapter that owns the exported texture, with Windows validation requirements.
Priority: Low
Merge Risk: Low · up to 398c8
Clarify that the first-frame probe must detect an incompatible named encoder during setup. The proposal is otherwise mergeable with this bounded correction.

No actionable bugs found in this quest-only change. Lean defaults plus a shared release feature is a coherent alternative to duplicating feature lists across distribution recipes. Keeping PipeWire opt-in outside the bundled Flatpak and making CLI release packaging wait for runtime-loaded ALSA preserves the stated portability goal. The separate, post-#6805 Media Foundation adapter-selection quest appropriately retains setup-time validation and explicit-choice failure behavior rather than introducing a runtime fallback.
Verification: static review of the four changed quest files, the linked ALSA prerequisite, current CLI feature definitions, and #6805's export/adapter design context. No builds, tests, packaged artifacts, or dual-GPU Windows hardware were exercised; implementation and hardware behavior remain to be verified when these quests land.
Merge summary: quest-only change. Codex finished with no findings (thumbs-up) and the OpenAI review found nothing actionable, so no changes were needed. quest check --base origin/main passes on head 1d5283e. The expected conflict in quest/m3/studio/packaging.md did not arise: moq-dev/moq#6797 and moq-dev/moq#6806 are still open, so whichever lands later keeps this PR's Plan section and a single Flatpak-with-pipewire note.
The check of moq-cli's current defaults moves to the pre-cut Cargo
feature audit (quest/m2/release/feature-flags.md). cli-packaging keeps
only the `release` feature and the distributions.

- Line 17: Update the encoder-enumeration requirement to create an IMFAttributes
store with MFT_ENUM_ADAPTER_LUID set to the texture’s adapter LUID, then call
MFTEnum2 with MFT_ENUM_FLAG_HARDWARE; do not describe the adapter LUID as an
MFTEnumEx flag.

MFT_ENUM_ADAPTER_LUID is an attribute MFTEnum2 reads, not an MFTEnumEx
flag, so the quest names the enumeration call it has to switch to.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Reviewed the update since 1d5283e (base unchanged). No new actionable bugs found. quest/m2/mf-encode-adapter.md:16–18 now explicitly names MFTEnum2 and its IMFAttributes adapter-LUID store, addressing the plan ambiguity raised in CodeRabbit's existing finding; this is a documentation fix, not an implemented encoder fix. The current backend still uses MFTEnumEx, with hardware filtering already explicit. The narrow adapter-enumeration follow-up remains a sensible direction without expanding public API or adding runtime fallback. The other delta removes redundant CLI-default audit wording without changing the lean-default policy.
Verification: static comparison of the quest changes, review thread, and current Media Foundation enumeration/setup code. No builds, tests, or dual-GPU Windows validation performed.

the first-frame probe binds the Media Foundation device during setup; do not
imply the device is bound when Encoder::new opens the backend.
