Hey team — I've been using Recordly daily for a while and wanted to get some of the bigger performance wins I kept hitting upstream. This PR is a whole-stack pass on the MP4 export path, with the main goal of making GPU export actually fast and giving us H.265 as an option.

What I tested on:

  • Ryzen 9 9950X
  • RTX 5080
  • 64GB DDR5

On that machine, full-canvas exports that were previously stuck at ~14 FPS on the CPU path now hit ~150 FPS through the new CUDA compositor. That's not a typo. The bottleneck shifted from "renderer pushing raw frames over IPC" to "the encoder doing real work."

What's in here:

  • Generalized the NVIDIA CUDA compositor so it also outputs HEVC (via hevc_nvenc) in addition to H.264.
  • H.264 hardware now gets routed to the CUDA compositor too when RTX Rendering is selected, not just HEVC.
  • Added a stricter "H.265 + GPU" policy so a missing/failed CUDA setup hard-fails instead of silently falling back to the slow raw-frame path.
  • Added per-codec NVENC capability probes, libx265/libx264 CPU fallbacks, and post-export mux/ffprobe codec validation.
  • Reworked the export settings UI: removed the "Lightning (Beta)" pipeline toggle, renamed the GPU path to "NVIDIA RTX Rendering", and cleaned up the custom bitrate input so it actually matches the rest of the menu.
  • Bitrate caps now reflect realistic social media bounds: 70 Mbps max for H.265, 105 Mbps for H.264.
  • Tons of supporting work: tiled overlay caching, temporal composition on the GPU, better cursor/native overlay blending, and diagnostic benchmarks.

Why H.265: same visual quality at roughly half the file size. Modern platforms and hardware handle it fine, and it's ideal for anything going to social media where storage/bandwidth matters.

Known next steps I didn't want to lump in here:

  • A proper GPU-vendor detector to hide the NVIDIA path from AMD users and show a Vulkan/OpenGL renderer option instead. That's the next PR.

This is a big diff, but it's been run through the full vitest suite and tsc --noEmit clean. Happy to split or rebase however makes review easier.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This PR adds codec-aware MP4 export settings and routing, native CUDA composition with raw, tiled, and cursor overlays, transferable frame transport, and pending local-media handling. It also updates recording diagnostics, build and benchmark tooling, export progress, and localized settings.

Changes

Native export pipeline

Layer / File(s) Summary
Editor settings and route selection
src/components/video-editor/*, src/lib/exporter/exportBitrate.ts, src/lib/exporter/types.ts
The editor adds H.264/HEVC, encoder preference, and bitrate controls. It persists these settings and routes eligible exports to native static-layout or raw-frame paths.
Native execution and composition
src/lib/exporter/modernVideoExporter.ts, electron/ipc/export/native-video.ts, electron/ipc/nativeVideoExport.ts, electron/native/nvidia-cuda-compositor/*
Native exports add codec-aware encoder selection, overlay manifests, cursor and webcam ownership, temporal and zoom blur data, progress metrics, and fallback checks. HEVC Hardware requires the NVIDIA CUDA route and does not use CPU or renderer-raw fallback.
Frame transport and export lifecycle
electron/preload.ts, electron/ipc/register/export.ts, src/lib/exporter/exportTuning.ts
Frame-channel negotiation adds ordered transferable writes, acknowledgements, frame/byte backpressure, fallback handling, and cleanup during finalization or cancellation.

Media lifecycle and supporting work

Layer / File(s) Summary
Local media and recording sidecars
electron/ipc/project/*, electron/mediaServer.ts, electron/ipc/register/recording.ts, src/components/video-editor/timeline/*
Media resolution handles approved, pending, and rejected paths. Recording APIs report expected audio sidecars, and the timeline can retry pending paths.
Build, diagnostics, and benchmarks
electron/ipc/recording/*, scripts/*, electron/native/nvidia-cuda-compositor/CMakeLists.txt, package.json
Recording probes and validation results use bounded caches. The PR adds CUDA build handling and benchmark runners for CUDA export and frame transport.
Documentation and localization
AGENTS.md, docs/*, src/i18n/locales/*/settings.json, electron/native/bin/win32-x64/helpers-manifest.json
The PR adds operational and benchmark documentation, export setting translations, and updated helper metadata.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Suggested reviewers: meiiie, webadderall

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to d7c14

Fix these issues before merging:

  • File access: the local media server can serve unapproved files from app directories.
  • Settings changes: changing the export codec reloads the open project.
  • HEVC bitrate: HEVC exports can exceed the intended bitrate cap.
  • Timeline alignment: sources with dropped frames can lose their real timing.
  • Waveforms: the microphone track can be missing, or the timeline can show audio from another recording.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟠 High · up to d7c14

Files in recording, application-data, asset, and temporary folders can now be read without prior approval by someone able to reach the app’s local endpoint and identify a file path. Existing path checks limit exposure, but do not preserve the previous approval requirement.

Retained concerns

  • High · security · observed: The media HTTP sink replaces resource-specific approval with broad directory authority. A caller that can reach the loopback endpoint can directly request an existing, unapproved regular file within any configured read root, bypassing the media resolver and its supported-type checks. Removing a file from the approval set also no longer revokes access while it remains root-contained.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The newly attackable scope is unapproved regular files whose canonical paths fall within the configured roots and which the application account can read, including non-media files. The exposure is not limited to the current recording or project. Arbitrary files outside those roots remain blocked unless explicitly approved; no broader host privilege or remote code execution was established.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • observed — The retained authorization finding is supported by an introduced control change: an attacker-controlled path query flows through realpath resolution, root-or-approval authorization, regular-file validation, and file streaming. A caller able to reach the local endpoint and identify its port and target path can bypass resolver approval. Existing outside-root and pending-symlink rejection tests constrain the attack but do not address unapproved in-root files.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Export session identity remains session-ID-based rather than creator-bound. Port attachment replaces the stored sender without checking equality, while finish and cancellation ignore caller identity. The inspected base already used this authority model for legacy writes, finish, and cancellation; no additional privilege expansion from that condition was established. The new channel still requires an existing session, a valid handshake, and valid frame sizes.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — Pending appearance waits are bounded to three seconds and re-resolve the appearing file. Approval-set replacement provides explicit cleanup, but no longer revokes HTTP access to root-contained files. Export cancellation marks termination, removes the session, closes its channel, kills FFmpeg, and removes temporary output; renderer destruction closes the attached channel but does not itself perform that cancellation sequence.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Preserve a resource-specific, revocable grant at the HTTP sink. Pending-file support can retain an exact lexical grant and validate the canonical target upon appearance without authorizing every file under the shared roots. A caller-bound capability for local URLs could further separate endpoint reachability from read authority.
  • proposed — Keep export creator identity immutable and use one shared session lifecycle for every transport. Owner checks, terminal-state admission, and reconnect generations would make authority and stale-request handling explicit across finish, cancellation, interruption, and replacement.

397-473: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

The static-layout export IPC option types drift from the main-process contract. NativeStaticLayoutExportOptions in electron/ipc/export/native-video.ts declares cursorAtlasOwned (Line 625) and temporalBlur (Lines 609-613), and the export path branches on both. The two renderer-facing declarations of the same call do not expose the full set, so renderer code cannot express cursor ownership or a temporal blur plan without a cast, and the baked-sidecar default applies silently.

  • electron/electron-env.d.ts#L397-L473: add cursorAtlasOwned?: boolean; to the nativeStaticLayoutExport option type.
  • electron/preload.ts#L616-L637: add both cursorAtlasOwned?: boolean; and the temporalBlur?: { sampleCount: number; shutterFraction: number; weightCurvePower: number } | null; field to the nativeStaticLayoutExport option type.

Vertical-flip responsibility moved out of the capture helper, but the caller still describes and requests a flip. captureCanvasFrameForNativeExport now returns top-down RGBA rows on both capture paths and ignores its third parameter, so the caller comment and the true argument are stale and misleading.

  • src/lib/exporter/nativeFrameCapture.ts#L63-L95: remove the unused _flipVertical parameter from the signature, or document that it is retained only for backward compatibility, and update the callers and electron/ipc/nativeVideoExport.test.ts accordingly.
  • src/lib/exporter/modernVideoExporter.ts#L4037-L4039: delete the "Flip rows vertically" comment and drop the true argument so the call reads captureCanvasFrameForNativeExport(canvas, timestamp); state instead that renderer frames are canonical top-down RGBA.

As per coding guidelines: "Treat renderer raw RGBA frames as canonical top-down frames and avoid duplicate vertical flips between renderer and FFmpeg integration."

Gate the "Selected" state on availability, and keep the switch reachable.

The experimentalNvidiaCudaExport branch precedes the nvidiaCudaExportAvailable check. If a persisted opt-in is true and the compositor is unavailable, the badge shows "Selected" and the hint claims "Exports will use the NVIDIA CUDA compositor on this device." The export then uses the raw fallback, so this text states a capability that the probe did not confirm. In the same state, Line 630 renders no Switch, so the user cannot clear the stale opt-in. Require nvidiaCudaExportAvailable for the selected badge and hint, and render the switch in a disabled or off state when the compositor is unavailable.

As per coding guidelines: "Never claim codec, rate-control, AQ, VBV, or performance capabilities unless confirmed by the probe or live encoder".

Re-clamp the custom bitrate when the codec maximum drops.

effectiveMaxMbps changes with exportVideoCodec, but no code re-clamps exportBitrateMbps after a codec switch. If the user sets 100 Mbps with H.264 and then selects H.265, the committed value stays 100 while the new maximum is 70. The Slider at Line 455 and the Input at Line 471 only bound new input; the stale value is still emitted to the export settings. Clamp the current value when the maximum changes.

 		setBitrateDraft(String(exportBitrateMbps));

Temporal blur flags are forwarded without a native support check.

The tiled overlay path at Lines 1434-1444 probes --help and fails with an actionable error when the native compositor does not advertise --tiled-overlay-manifest. The temporal blur path has no equivalent guard. If the staged native helper predates the temporal blur flags, the effect is dropped or the process fails with an opaque argument error instead of an explicit unsupported result.

Requested sample counts of 1 or 2 are also dropped without any diagnostic.

Add the same --help capability check for --temporal-blur-sample-count, and emit an explicit unsupported-temporal-motion-blur failure when the flag is absent.

Remove the duplicated read-policy logic.

isAllowedLocalReadPathWithRoots (Lines 127-153) repeats the body of isAllowedLocalReadPath (Lines 74-113) exactly, with only the root source differing. This is security-critical policy. Two copies can drift, and a future fix applied to one path will silently miss the other.

isAllowedLocalReadPathWithRoots is also declared async but performs only synchronous work (realpathSync), so the async keyword adds no value here.

Extract one synchronous core and have both entry points call it.

A temporal blur plan with sampleCount below 3 is silently dropped.

The guard only forwards the temporal blur arguments when sampleCount >= 3. For a resolved plan with sampleCount of 1 or 2 the CUDA wrapper receives no temporal blur arguments, the export succeeds, and the effect disappears. The fallback guards at Line 4700 and Line 4920 hard-fail only when CUDA is unavailable or fails, so they do not cover this path.

Either reject such a plan with an explicit unsupported-temporal-motion-blur error, or have the renderer never emit a plan below the minimum sample count and assert that invariant here.

completedFrameRequestIds grows without bound for the whole session.

Every accepted frame adds a request id, and the set is cleared only in attachNativeVideoExportFramePort. A long export writes one entry per frame, so a 30-minute 60 fps export retains about 108,000 entries for the session lifetime.

The strict sequence !== session.nextFrameSequence check at Line 372 already rejects replays and out-of-order frames, so the id set only needs to cover ids that are still in flight or recently settled. Bound it, for example by tracking the highest accepted request id plus the pending map, or by pruning ids below a watermark.

♻️ Sketch: replace the unbounded set with a watermark
-	if (
-		session.completedFrameRequestIds.has(requestId) ||
-		session.pendingFrameRequests.has(requestId)

stationaryPlaneEquivalence indexes contentValues with the frame width, so most content pixels read as undefined.

contentValues is allocated with regionWidth * regionHeight entries by the callers (Lines 295, 342, 351), but Lines 201 and 222 index it with y * width + x. For every row above the first few, that index exceeds the array length and yields undefined. fusedAccumulate then computes (weightFixed * undefined + 128) >> 8, which is 0.

All three paths use the same expression, so the equality assertions still pass. The tests therefore compare zeros instead of real content values, and the intended fixed-point equivalence coverage over the content region is lost. Index the content array with the region stride.

Directory names sort lexicographically, not by version.

readdirSync(...).sort().reverse() orders v12.6 before v9.0 only by string comparison. "v9.0" > "v12.6" in lexicographic order, so v9.0 is preferred. The build then selects an older CUDA Toolkit when both are installed.

The legacy 8.1 samples header is never replaced.

Two defects prevent the SDK sample header replacement from running:

  1. Lines 166-168 return early when the staged nv-codec-headers checkout already contains nvEncodeAPI.h. On any repeat build, or when a user sets RECORDLY_NVENC_HEADERS_ROOT to an existing checkout, the replacement code at Lines 182-194 never executes.
  2. Line 189 reads versionLine from the staged header at NVENC_HEADERS_INCLUDE, not from samplesHeader. That staged header is the pinned n13.0.19.1 release, so it always reports NVENCAPI_MAJOR_VERSION 13. The guard at Line 192 therefore evaluates !true and skips copyFileSync in the expected case.

The combined effect is that Samples/NvCodec/NvEncoder/nvEncodeAPI.h keeps the legacy 8.1 header. The compiler prefers that quoted include, so the encoder library builds against API 8.1 and fails at runtime with NV_ENC_ERR_INVALID_PARAM, which is the exact failure the comment at Lines 42-45 describes.

Read the version from samplesHeader and run the replacement on every invocation.

Reuse the exported codec caps and re-clamp the draft when the codec changes.

Line 117 hardcodes 70 and 105. src/lib/exporter/types.ts already exports EXPORT_BITRATE_HEVC_MAX_MBPS (70) and EXPORT_BITRATE_H264_MAX_MBPS (105). Import them so a cap change stays in one place.

The effect at lines 113-115 only resyncs the draft when exportBitrateMbps changes. If the user selects 105 Mbps with H.264 and then switches to H.265, effectiveMaxMbps becomes 70 while bitrateDraft and exportBitrateMbps stay at 105. The Input and Slider then show a value above their own max. The export itself stays correct because clampCustomBitrateMbps re-clamps by codec, so this is a display and persisted-preference inconsistency only.

- Around line 1406-1411: Update the overlay classification flow around

390-396: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Wait for prewarm teardown before starting FFmpeg.

Line 394 cancels the prewarm without waiting for its NVENC session to release. Line 396 can then start a competing hardware encoder session. This can cause a transient export failure.

Wait for bounded prewarm teardown before spawn. If teardown fails for HEVC, return an actionable hard failure with noCpuFallback metadata. Do not continue with a CPU or renderer fallback.

As per coding guidelines, HEVC setup failures must hard-fail without CPU or renderer fallback.

792-810: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Block new frame writes before finalization.

native-video-export-finish does not mark the session as finishing before await session.writeSequence. A frame-port or cloned IPC request can append a write after that promise was captured. The handler can then close stdin before that accepted frame writes.

Add a finishing state before the first await. Reject and settle subsequent frame requests. Then wait only for writes accepted before the state transition.

As per coding guidelines, native-frame transport requires sequence ordering, acknowledgements, cancellation settlement, and backpressure.

Review comments at @electron/ipc/nativeVideoExport.ts:
- Around line 381-384: Add the `hvc1` video sample-entry tag to both HEVC MP4
write paths: in `buildNativeVideoExportArgs`, push `-tag:v hvc1` for `libx265`

Review comments at @electron/ipc/recording/diagnostics.ts:
- Around line 59-72: Update withMetadataProbeCache to accept an optional

Review comments at @electron/ipc/register/export.ts:
- Around line 434-452: Update cancelInFlightCapabilityOnlyPrewarms to return a
promise that waits for each terminated child process to exit or close, with a
bounded timeout that rejects on failure. Preserve its count result on success so
the existing await and strict HEVC Hardware catch in the export flow can stop
the export when teardown fails.
- Around line 887-890: Add finishing state to NativeVideoExportSession, or

- The generalized NVIDIA CUDA compositor (run-mp4-pipeline.mjs -> main.cu) ALSO accepts the
renderer-prepared RGBA overlay sidecar through an `--overlay-manifest` JSON (layers with
path/x/y/width/height/frameCount). It streams the raw RGBA frames with a double-buffered
prefetch (bounded: two device buffers + one pinned host buffer per layer) and alpha-blends
them top-down ON TOP of the composed, blurred video — so cursor/captions/annotations stay
sharp. When overlay layers are present the renderer bakes cursor+webcam into the sidecar,
so the CUDA route must NOT also draw the native cursor atlas for that export.

📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Update the native cursor atlas rule. It contradicts the new behavior.

Lines 205-207 state that the CUDA route must NOT draw the native cursor atlas when overlay layers are present. The audit document (docs/benchmarks/cuda-pipeline-audit-2026-09-08.md Lines 33-35) and tiledOverlayNative.test.mjs ("keeps a native cursor atlas visible above a renderer overlay sidecar") say the reverse. The atlas is suppressed only when the browser bakes the cursor into the sidecar. Lines 259-261 of this file also limit the atlas to that case. This file is durable guidance for agents, so the contradiction can cause regressions. Rewrite the sentence to say that the CUDA route skips the native cursor atlas only when the renderer baked the cursor into the sidecar. Also fix the corrupted character "�" at Line 103.

FFmpeg uses hev1 by default when it puts HEVC into MP4. QuickTime, Safari, and iOS do not play hev1. Both HEVC write paths need -tag:v hvc1.

Cache only successful probe results in withMetadataProbeCache.

withMetadataProbeCache stores every compute() result for an existing file. That includes the failure values:

  • probeMediaDurationSeconds returns 0 when ffmpeg times out (5 s) or prints no Duration: line.
  • probeVideoStreamDuration returns null on any ffprobe error.

A transient failure is then served from the cache until the file's size or mtime changes. Examples are a timeout under load, or a file that is still being finalized when its mtime has already settled. Callers keep getting duration 0 or null, and companion-audio sync and diagnostics use those values.

The test name "never caches missing files or failed probes" covers only missing files.

🐛 Proposed fix
 async function withMetadataProbeCache<T>(
 	cache: Map<string, MetadataCacheEntry<T>>,
 	filePath: string,
 	compute: () => Promise<T>,
+	isCacheable: (value: T) => boolean = () => true,
 ): Promise<T> {
 ...
 	const value = await compute();
+	if (!isCacheable(value)) {
+		return value;
+	}
 	if (cache.size >= PROBE_CACHE_MAX_ENTRIES) {

Pass (d) => d > 0 from probeMediaDurationSeconds. Pass (p) => p !== null from probeVideoStreamDuration.

The prewarm teardown does not wait for the probe process to exit, and the strict HEVC branch cannot run.

cancelInFlightCapabilityOnlyPrewarms() (electron/ipc/export/native-video.ts:211-232) is synchronous. It sends SIGKILL, catches every error itself, and returns a count. As a result:

  • await resolves at once. The child can still hold its NVENC session when spawn(ffmpegPath, …) runs. The comment "no in-flight capability probe is still running" is therefore false.
  • The catch block never runs. The noCpuFallback:true hard fail for HEVC Hardware is dead code.

Make the helper return a promise. The promise must resolve on each child's exit/close event, with a bounded timeout, and reject on timeout. Then the strict branch works as documented.

export async function cancelInFlightCapabilityOnlyPrewarms(timeoutMs = 2000): Promise<number> {
	const children = [...activeCapabilityOnlyPrewarmChildren];
	activeCapabilityOnlyPrewarmChildren.clear();
	await Promise.all(children.map((child) => new Promise<void>((resolve, reject) => {
		if (child.exitCode !== null || child.signalCode !== null) return resolve();
		const timer = setTimeout(() => reject(new Error("prewarm teardown timed out")), timeoutMs);
		child.once("exit", () => { clearTimeout(timer); resolve(); });
		try { child.kill("SIGKILL"); } catch { /* already exited */ }
	})));
	return children.length;

Reject frame-port writes after finalization starts.

finishingNativeVideoExportSessions is checked only when a new port attaches. handleNativeVideoExportFramePortMessage checks session.terminating, then accepts frames and enqueues writes. An already attached port can therefore enqueue a frame after finalization captures the current session.writeSequence. The finish handler can end FFmpeg stdin before that write runs, causing write after end.

Store the finishing state on NativeVideoExportSession, or expose a predicate for it. Check that state in handleNativeVideoExportFramePortMessage before accepting the frame.

Pass the codec to resolveExportBitrate. Without it, HEVC exports get the H.264 bitrate cap.

resolveExportBitrate accepts codec and passes it to customBitrateMbpsToBps(customMbps, codec) and getCodecAutoBitrateCapBps(codec). This call does not pass codec. HEVC exports therefore use the default codec cap, not the 70 Mbps H.265 cap that the PR objectives require. This applies to both Auto mode and Custom mode. The same wrong value also goes into smokeResolvedSettings.bitrateBps.

Add each sprite's texture and anchor to getSpriteStateSignature.

The docstring says that an identical signature produces identical pixels. This is false when the cursor type changes for a cursor-pack style:

  • update() sets a different texture and anchor on customCursorSprite (getCursorPackStyleAsset(style, spriteKey)).
  • If both assets have the same aspectRatio, the position, rotation, width, and height do not change.

The signature is then identical, and the cursor-sprite export reuses the previous frame. The output shows the arrow where the pointer should be, or the reverse.

Stop reusing a frame when the content signature is unknown (null).

The reuse guard only rejects undefined. FrameRenderer.captureCursorSpriteFrame passes null when cursorOverlay is missing or has no getSpriteStateSignature. The capturer stores contentSignature ?? null. Two frames with a null signature and the same ROI therefore compare equal. The capturer then reuses the previous pixels. The interface comment defines null as "unknown", so "unknown" is treated as "unchanged". The fix is to treat both null and undefined as "do not reuse".

Compare the reuse ROI against the recorded ROI size, not the render-texture size.

record.width and record.height hold renderTexture.width and renderTexture.height. ensureRenderTexture keeps a texture that is larger than the current ROI, and it applies maxSpriteWidth/maxSpriteHeight. After the texture grows once, previous.width === roi.width is false for every smaller ROI. This also happens whenever the fixed strip size differs from the clamped roiOverride. Reuse then never happens in the cursor-at-rest case, and every frame does a full ROI render and readback. Store the ROI dimensions on the record and compare against those values.

PixiJS 8.14.0 Container worldTransform getGlobalTransform updateTransform source

💡 Result:

For **PixiJS 8.14.0**, `Container.getGlobalTransform()` is implemented in the global/local mixin, while `Container.ts` defines the class. The version-pinned source is [toLocalGlobalMixin.ts](https://github.com/pixijs/pixijs/blob/v8.14.0/src/scene/container/container-mixins/toLocalGlobalMixin.ts) and [Container.ts](https://github.com/pixijs/pixijs/blob/v8.14.0/src/scene/container/Container.ts). ([github.com](https://github.com/pixijs/pixijs/blob/v8.14.0/src/scene/container/container-mixins/toLocalGlobalMixin.ts))

**Key distinction:** `getGlobalTransform(out, skipUpdate)` can recalculate the global transform chain unless `skipUpdate` is `true`. `worldTransform`, by contrast, is the cached transform and may not reflect recent changes until transforms are updated. For an up-to-date matrix, use:

```ts
const matrix = container.getGlobalTransform();
```

The v8.14.0 mixin’s `toGlobal()` calls `getGlobalTransform(...)`; it also documents `skipUpdate` as skipping transform updates. ([github.com](https://github.com/pixijs/pixijs/blob/v8.14.0/src/scene/container/container-mixins/toLocalGlobalMixin.ts))

`updateTransform()` was removed from the v8 scene-object API; it is not the v8 way to force an update. ([pixijs.com](https://pixijs.com/8.x/guides/migrations/v8?utm_source=openai))

Refresh the cursor transform before the ROI render.

In Pixi.js 8.14.0, reading worldTransform does not recalculate the changed scene-graph transform chain. The streaming path supplies roiOverride, so it bypasses bounds calculation and reads the cached transform before the ROI render. During zoom, the cursor can be offset or clipped.

Suggested fix
 		if (this.cursorContainer.visible) {
+			const worldTransform =
+				this.cursorContainer.getGlobalTransform?.(new Matrix(), false) ??
+				this.cursorContainer.worldTransform;
 			const transform = buildCursorSpriteRenderTransform(
-				this.cursorContainer.worldTransform,
+				worldTransform,
 				roi.x,
 				roi.y,
 			);

Update the ROI cursor-rendering path to refresh the transform chain before
building the cursor sprite render transform; do not rely solely on the cached
cursorContainer.worldTransform during zoom. Use
cursorContainer.getGlobalTransform where available, retaining the cached
transform as a fallback, and pass the refreshed transform to
buildCursorSpriteRenderTransform.
