Vegas plugins read as "cut off early" or "starting in the middle". That was the per-plugin width budget, not the scroll engine: overflow_mode=rotate is designed to resume mid-content on each appearance, so the symptom was the feature working as specified. Measured over a 17-plugin fleet on a 512px panel, the cap was a bad trade. Only four plugins were ever wide enough to hit the 3.0 default -- leaderboard 11,518px, news 10,021px, odds-ticker 4,643px, hockey 1,508px. Weather is 650px and flights 512px; the cap never touched them or the other eleven. So it bought nothing on thirteen plugins while costing two visible faults on four: content entering mid-item (a news ticker started at column 6027 of its own strip), and a final rotation window of whatever happened to be left -- 348px of an 1,840px stocks ticker, seven seconds of panel time. Default max_plugin_width_ratio to 0 (uncapped), so every plugin contributes all of its content and is always entered at its beginning. The cap remains available, and vegas_max_width_screens still caps an individual plugin -- which is where the knob belongs, since a genuinely long ticker is a property of that plugin rather than of the fleet. Verified on a live 512px device: 327 budget crops in the preceding six hours, none after.
