- Around line 92-110: Update ScreenCaptureKitRecorder.finish to track whether
endTime advances during drain and silence padding. Reset the deadline and yield
when progress occurs; retain the timeout and sleep behavior for iterations with
no progress.

Exercise the production audio path in the stall test.
The stall scenario constructs AudioSampleQueue directly. It does not call ScreenCaptureKitRecorder.stream(_:didOutputSampleBuffer:of:) or appendAudioSampleBuffer. A regression that drops audio before it reaches the queue can therefore pass this test while the recorder loses speech during encoder backpressure. Add one stall case through the production callback or append helper. Keep the direct queue cases for queue-specific behavior.

When macOS audio buffers are lost, the AAC writer can pack the remaining samples together despite their timestamps. Later speech then plays early. A controlled reproduction using current main's actual append function moved a tone from 0.70 s to 0.50 s after a 200 ms loss; an encoder burst also dropped buffers without deliberate omission.
This keeps a bounded queue for brief encoder stalls (two seconds, 4 MiB and 256 buffers per writer). If sustained overload exceeds those limits, missing time is written as silence, including leading gaps and the final tail. Overlaps are trimmed using the source PCM format, each retimed entry describes one audio frame, and finalization reports a failure if queued audio cannot drain. Gap generation is incremental, yields between successful passes, and uses a five-second inactivity timeout. Queued audio is trimmed to the final media time.
The existing capture clock, video path and inline source-selection policy remain in place. This is a focused alternative to the wider recorder changes in #1088; it does not claim to resolve every cause of drift or reproduce the exact REAPER environment in #1120.

Review: CodeRabbit reviewed head
bb14634f; its timeout defect is fixed and marked addressed. Its remaining trivial suggestion is a committed callback/append-helper stall test: the deterministic regressions currently compile the production queue directly, while recorder integration is covered by the separate production-wrapper probe and live smoke. That additional regression coverage is deferred; no further production defect was identified.Live smoke: 35 seconds of fixed-area capture with system-audio beeps, including a three-second pause/resume, stopped successfully. The MP4 has 34.991667 s video and 34.991125 s audio; decoded inline/sidecar audio both contain the test signal. This is a short capture smoke, not a long-duration stress pass. Window-target smoke was interrupted by ScreenCaptureKit reporting the test window unavailable; no claim of passing that case or reproducing REAPER. No USB/Bluetooth microphone hardware test, release or deployment is included.
