Measure insertion gaps regardless of arrival order
When a higher sequence is queued first and a lower sequence arrives after the latency budget, latest_inserted.saturating_duration_since(*inserted) saturates to zero, so the older group is always considered fresh. For example, if group 3 is inserted and group 2 arrives seconds later, a new subscriber with a 1 ms budget incorrectly starts at group 2. The JS mirror has the same issue at js/net/src/track.ts:701, where the subtraction becomes negative, so use an order-independent elapsed duration in both implementations. (Written by GPT-5.6 Sol)

Keep unpaced video subscriptions at the live edge
When callers disable paced while sync.out.maxBuffer remains nonzero, this requests retained history even though the same decoder deliberately sets its container latency to zero at line 301. The publisher therefore downloads older video groups that the zero-latency consumer will skip, and they can transiently surface during instant startup. Use the pace-aware #latency getter for the network subscription so unpaced mode requests zero and reacts correctly when pacing changes. (Written by GPT-5.6 Sol)

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Preserve an explicit startAt() floor during automatic repositioning.
startAt() sets #startPinned, but #position() ignores that flag. If the caller invokes startAt(10) before Producer.accept(), sink.position?.() can lower the cursor to the publisher-selected start. recvGroup() can then deliver sequence 0.
Keep the cursor start at least at its pinned value when #position() runs.
Proposed fix
`#position`(announcedStart = 0): void {
- this.#cursor.update((cursor) => ({ ...cursor, start: Math.max(this.#subscriptionStart(), announcedStart) }));

A fresh subscriber now resolves its start from max latency, so subscribing to an already-populated track yields the live edge instead of group 0. These layout assertions subscribed after finish() and saw only the last group. Subscribe up front, like the live-consumer tests in the same files.

Preserve legacy start semantics before lite-06
When a lite-03 through lite-05 peer sends a nonzero maxLatency and omits startGroup, passing those options directly into the new model makes the publisher select cached history. Those negotiated drafts defined an absent Group Start as the latest group, while the new age-resolved meaning is recorded only for moq-lite-06, so existing clients can unexpectedly restart behind live and replay media. Gate initial and update-time repositioning on lite-06 in both publishers, retaining the previous latest-group behavior for older versions. (Written by GPT-5.6 Sol)

Honor timestamp age when selecting cached history
When a relay receives a burst of cached groups together, their insertion instants can be nearly identical even if their first-frame timestamps are seconds apart. This predicate therefore admits presentation-stale groups outside latency_max, although the normative expiration rule says a group is stale when either timestamp age or wall-clock age exceeds the budget; the JS mirror has the same queue-time-only check in track.ts. Include first-frame timestamp age in the new start resolver so burst buffering cannot defeat the requested latency ceiling. (Written by GPT-5.6 Sol)

Resolve bounded zero-latency joins across all segments
Fresh evidence after the earlier logical-live-edge fix is this new group_end.is_some() branch: with existing segments containing groups 0-1 and 2-3, a zero-latency subscription capped at group 3 returns None here, so each segment resolves independently and group 1 is delivered before the logical live edge at group 3. Compute one logical latest sequence at or below the cap and add a bounded multi-segment regression test. (Written by GPT-5.6 Sol)
AGENTS.md reference: AGENTS.md:L141-L141
Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.
The decode consumers applied `latency_max` only to the container, which governs playback expiry. The subscription itself went out as `Subscription::default()`, so the budget never reached the wire. That was invisible while a subscriber always started at group 0. Now the subscription's max latency picks the join point, so a consumer with a configured budget still started at the live edge and dropped everything already published. This mirrors the latency ceiling js/watch sends. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Apply positive latency budgets across logical segments
When a spliced track retains a predecessor whose last group was queued seconds before the current segment, any positive latency budget takes this branch and lets each segment resolve independently. The predecessor therefore treats its own final group as the always-admitted latest group, and poll_recv_group returns it before the true logical live edge even when its age greatly exceeds the subscriber's budget. Resolve the join against a shared timeline across all segments so failover history is filtered by the logical latest group. (Written by GPT-5.6 Sol)
