TL;DR

scrcpy now uses SDL3 (Simple DirectMedia Layer) for improved stability and support, and introduces dynamic resizing of the virtual display with the --flex-display option.

Breaking

• SDL2 dependency removed: scrcpy now requires SDL3 instead of SDL2. (Users may need to update their system libraries.)

New

• Flex Display: The --flex-display option allows the virtual display to resize with the scrcpy window. (Useful for adapting to different screen sizes.)
• Camera Controls: New shortcuts (MOD+t, MOD+Shift+t, MOD+↑, MOD+↓) control the camera torch and zoom. (Enhances camera functionality.)

Fixes Worth Knowing

• Fixed flickering on Meta Quest devices.
• Copy-paste now works on rooted devices.
• Improved CPU usage when decoding silent audio.
• Corrected colorspace conversion issues.

Before You Upgrade

• Ensure you have SDL3 installed on your system. (Check your package manager or the SDL website for installation instructions.)
