Every artwork budget in the image pipeline was tuned for 1080p surfaces: the transcode request clamp (1920x1080), the per-type decode caps (poster 720x1080, thumb 960x540, heroLogo 1000x500, ...) and the TV image-cache bytes. Those numbers are exact on phones and on the many TV boxes that composite the app at 1080p, but a TV compositing at 4K renders every capped image below its slot and GPU-upscales the result: hero backdrops by 2x, hero logos by ~1.8x, wide episode thumbs by ~1.3x, shelf posters by ~1.13x - the softness reported against the official Plex client in #1697, and the class #860's min-2x-DPR fix could not reach. DevicePerformance now latches a display budget factor - the display's shortest physical axis over 1080, capped at 2x - whenever the image cache budget is applied (startup, post-mount, effects-setting changes). The transcode clamp, the full-tier decode caps and the TV cache bytes all scale by it, so a 4K surface fetches and decodes 4K backdrops and proportionally larger cards. The reduced tier stays pinned to 1.0, and sub-2.5GiB hardware holds the factor at 1.5 so full-budget 4K art (~33MB per decode) cannot starve mid-RAM boxes; latching once per session keeps transcode URLs - and with them the disk cache keys - stable across rotation and rebuilds. Whether a given TV composites at 1080p or 4K decides whether any of this can help, and logs never recorded it: the startup banner and the log-upload header now carry a display line (physical, logical, DPR, latched budget) so uploaded logs answer that question directly. The two pre-existing Windows-host test failures (automotive auto-PiP gate, backdrop temp-dir teardown lock) reproduce unchanged on the base commit.
