 ## [Unreleased]
 
+### Marketing / Brevo integration now uses `django-lasuite`
+
+The in-house marketing service (`core.services.marketing`) has been removed and
+replaced by the shared implementation from `django-lasuite`
+(`lasuite.marketing`). This fixes a bug where updating a user's contact on
+Brevo overwrote their list memberships, removing lists set by other
+La Suite products. Existing lists are now preserved and merged.
+
+**Celery worker required.** Newsletter signup on login
+(`SIGNUP_NEW_USER_TO_MARKETING_EMAIL=True`) is now dispatched as an
+asynchronous Celery task (`lasuite.marketing.tasks.create_or_update_contact`)
+instead of a synchronous call with a 1s timeout. Make sure a Celery worker is
+running alongside the backend, otherwise contacts will never be pushed to Brevo.
+
+**Configuration changes.** The following environment variables / settings are
+**removed** and no longer read:
+
+- `MARKETING_SERVICE_CLASS`
+- `BREVO_API_KEY`
+- `BREVO_API_CONTACT_LIST_IDS`
+- `BREVO_API_CONTACT_ATTRIBUTES` (previous default: `{"VISIO_USER": True}`)
+- `BREVO_API_TIMEOUT`
+
+They are replaced by a single `LASUITE_MARKETING` setting, configured through:
+
+| Variable                       | Default                                          | Description                                  |
+| ------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------- |
+| `LASUITE_MARKETING_BACKEND`    | `lasuite.marketing.backends.dummy.DummyBackend`  | Backend class path                           |
+| `LASUITE_MARKETING_PARAMETERS` | `{}`                                             | Keyword arguments passed to the backend      |
+
+⚠️ The default backend is now a **dummy** (no-op). If you previously used
+Brevo, you must explicitly configure it, otherwise signups are silently dropped:
+
+    LASUITE_MARKETING_BACKEND=lasuite.marketing.backends.brevo.BrevoBackend
+    LASUITE_MARKETING_PARAMETERS={"api_key": "<your-brevo-api-key>", "api_contact_list_ids": [1, 2], "api_contact_attributes": {"VISIO_USER": True}}
+
+Migration mapping:
+
+- `BREVO_API_KEY` → `api_key`
+- `BREVO_API_CONTACT_LIST_IDS` → `api_contact_list_ids`
+- `BREVO_API_CONTACT_ATTRIBUTES` → `api_contact_attributes` (re-add
+  `{"VISIO_USER": True}` if you relied on the old default)
+- `BREVO_API_TIMEOUT` → no equivalent (the request runs in a background task)
+
+Note: `BREVO_API_KEY` used to support being read from a secret file; the API key
+now lives inside `LASUITE_MARKETING_PARAMETERS`, so adapt how you inject that
+secret (e.g. build the whole variable from your secret store).
+
+### Recording encoding settings replaced by a resolution/profile model
+
+The `RECORDING_ENCODING_*` settings introduced in v1.16.0 exposed raw encoder
+values (width, height, framerate, bitrate). They are replaced by two named and configurable sets of
+dimensions, a **resolution** (default: `540p`, `720p`, `1080p`) and a **profile**
+(default: `talking_heads`, `text`, `mixed`, `full`), which are resolved to the width, height,
+fps and video bitrate.
+
+**The following environment variables are no longer read. If they are still set in
+your deployment they are silently ignored, and your recordings will be encoded with
+the new defaults instead of your tuned values.**
+
+| Removed variable                        | Replaced by                                                                                                   |
+| --------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `RECORDING_ENCODING_ENABLED`            | Nothing. A default encoding is now always built (see below). **Not** `RECORDING_CUSTOM_ENCODING_ENABLED`, which gates a different feature. |
+| `RECORDING_ENCODING_WIDTH`              | The `width` of the entry selected by `RECORDING_ENCODING_DEFAULT_RESOLUTION` in `RECORDING_ENCODING_AVAILABLE_RESOLUTIONS`. |
+| `RECORDING_ENCODING_HEIGHT`             | The `height` of that same entry.                                                                              |
+| `RECORDING_ENCODING_FRAMERATE`          | The `fps` of the profile selected by `RECORDING_ENCODING_DEFAULT_PROFILE` in `RECORDING_ENCODING_AVAILABLE_PROFILES`. |
+| `RECORDING_ENCODING_VIDEO_BITRATE_KBPS` | That profile's `kbps`.                                                                  |
+
+`RECORDING_ENCODING_AUDIO_BITRATE_KBPS` and `RECORDING_ENCODING_KEY_FRAME_INTERVAL_S`
+keep their names and meaning. The keyframe interval now defaults to `0` (unset,
+encoder's choice) instead of `4.0`.
+
+#### If you never set `RECORDING_ENCODING_ENABLED=True`
+
+The shipped defaults (`RECORDING_ENCODING_DEFAULT_PROFILE=full`,
+`RECORDING_ENCODING_DEFAULT_RESOLUTION=720p`) match LiveKit's built-in
+`H264_720P_30` preset: 1280×720, 30 fps, 3000 kbps H.264 MAIN, 128 kbps AAC.
+Video output is therefore unchanged.
+
+Audio and keyframing may not be. These values are now sent explicitly as advanced
+`EncodingOptions` rather than relying on LiveKit's preset, so
+`RECORDING_ENCODING_AUDIO_BITRATE_KBPS` and `RECORDING_ENCODING_KEY_FRAME_INTERVAL_S`
+now apply to every recording. They previously applied only when
+`RECORDING_ENCODING_ENABLED` was `True`. **If you set either of them while the
+feature was disabled, they had no effect and now do**; check them before upgrading.
+
+If you never set them, no action is required: 128 kbps AAC is what the preset used,
+and the keyframe interval now defaults to `0`, which leaves the field unset so the
+encoder keeps picking it as before. Set `RECORDING_ENCODING_KEY_FRAME_INTERVAL_S=4.0`
+if you want fixed 4-second keyframes (the value the setting defaulted to while it
+was gated behind `RECORDING_ENCODING_ENABLED`).
+
+To keep letting LiveKit pick the encoding instead, set either default to an empty
+value:
+
+```
+RECORDING_ENCODING_DEFAULT_RESOLUTION=
+RECORDING_ENCODING_DEFAULT_PROFILE=
+```
+
+#### If you had tuned `RECORDING_ENCODING_*` values
+
+Translate your old values into a default resolution and a default profile. Declare your own resolution and/or profile. Both maps are read from the
+environment as a single-line Python/JSON dict literal (parsed with
+`ast.literal_eval`, so use double-quoted keys and no trailing commas, and do not
+add outer quotes in `.env`-style files):
+
+```bash
+RECORDING_ENCODING_AVAILABLE_RESOLUTIONS={"540p": {"width": 960, "height": 540}, "720p": {"width": 1280, "height": 720}, "1080p": {"width": 1920, "height": 1080}}
+RECORDING_ENCODING_AVAILABLE_PROFILES={"my_old_profile": {"fps": 15, "kbps": {"540p": 350, "720p": 600, "1080p": 1100}}}
+RECORDING_ENCODING_DEFAULT_RESOLUTION=720p
+RECORDING_ENCODING_DEFAULT_PROFILE=my_old_profile
+```
+
+Both maps are validated at startup and a malformed one raises a `ValueError`:
+
+- every entry of `RECORDING_ENCODING_AVAILABLE_RESOLUTIONS` must declare `width` and
+  `height`, and every entry of `RECORDING_ENCODING_AVAILABLE_PROFILES` an `fps` and a
+  `kbps` map;
+- every profile must define a `kbps` entry for **exactly** the keys of
+  `RECORDING_ENCODING_AVAILABLE_RESOLUTIONS`; overriding one of the two maps usually
+  means overriding both;
+- `RECORDING_ENCODING_DEFAULT_RESOLUTION` and `RECORDING_ENCODING_DEFAULT_PROFILE`,
+  when non-empty, must be keys of their respective map.
+
+#### Breaking: custom worker services must accept `encoding_options`
+
+Only concerns deployments pointing `RECORDING_WORKER_CLASSES` at their own worker
+class. The shipped `VideoCompositeEgressService` and `AudioCompositeEgressService`
+are already updated.
+
+The `WorkerService` protocol's `start()` takes a third argument, and the mediator
+now always passes it as a keyword when the recording carries no per-recording encoding:
+
+```python
+# before
+def start(self, room_id: str, recording_id: str) -> str: ...
+
+# now
+def start(
+    self,
+    room_id: str,
+    recording_id: str,
+    encoding_options: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None,
+) -> str: ...
+```
+
+#### Optional: per-recording encoding
+
+`RECORDING_CUSTOM_ENCODING_ENABLED` (default `False`) toggles whether the
+start-recording API accepts an `encoding` object
+(`{"resolution": "720p", "profile": "talking_heads"}`, `profile` optional. It
+falls back to `RECORDING_ENCODING_DEFAULT_PROFILE`) that overrides the default for
+a single recording. It does not enable or disable the
+default encoding, which is built from the two `RECORDING_ENCODING_DEFAULT_*`
+settings either way. Leaving it at `False` preserves the previous behaviour, where
+every recording uses the server-side encoding: requests carrying
+`options.encoding` are rejected with a `400` before the recording is created, so
+nothing is persisted and no egress is started.
+
+Before enabling it:
+
+- clients can only pick keys you declared; there is no way to send a raw width or bitrate
+- as of this implementation, the frontend never sends `encoding` 
+- `encoding` is accepted but ignored for `transcript` recordings, whose audio-only
+  egress has no video encoding to configure.
+
+See [docs/features/recording.md](docs/features/recording.md#tuning-recording-encoding)
+for the full setting reference, the shipped profile table and the tuning caveats.

 ### Purging inactive rooms
 
 Rooms now keep track of the last time they were started (`last_started_at`), fed by LiveKit's `room_started` webhook. A new `purge_inactive_rooms` management command permanently deletes the rooms that have not been started for `ROOM_INACTIVITY_DELETION_DAYS` days. See [the room purge documentation](docs/features/room-purge.md).

 ### Summary service and metadata collector: boto3 replaces the minio client
 
 The summary service and the metadata collector agent now talk to S3 through boto3 instead of the minio client, with the same settings.
-Requests are now signed for `AWS_S3_REGION_NAME` as-is. When it is not set, the region is no longer looked up from the bucket: boto3 falls back to `AWS_DEFAULT_REGION`, then to `us-east-1`. If you left `AWS_S3_REGION_NAME` unset, set it to your provider's region before upgrading, or providers that check the signing region will reject the transcripts, summaries and meeting metadata uploads, as well as their signed URLs.

+### LiveKit agents (optional)
+
+The LiveKit agents are not started by `make run`. Each one runs its own
+container and stays connected to LiveKit, which costs CPU and memory you
+don't need unless you work on the features they power. Start them only
+when you need them.
+
+| Agent | Feature | Make command | Setting in `env.d/development/common` |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `metadata-collector-dev` | Recording metadata (used to identify speakers in transcripts) | `make run-agent-metadata-collector` | `METADATA_COLLECTOR_ENABLED=True` |
+| `multi-user-transcriber-dev` | Live subtitles | `make run-agent-multi-user-transcriber` | `ROOM_SUBTITLE_ENABLED=True` |
+
+To start both at once:
+```shellscript
+$ make run-agents
+```
+
+Then set the matching settings to `True` and restart the backend so it
+picks them up:
+```shellscript
+$ make run-backend
+```
+
+The multi-user transcriber also needs a speech-to-text provider. Configure
+`STT_PROVIDER` and its credentials in
+`env.d/development/multi_user_transcriber`.
+
+Keep the settings and the agents in sync: if a setting is `True` while its
+agent is stopped, the backend still dispatches jobs to it and the feature
+fails silently.

 ## Tuning recording encoding
 
-By default, LiveKit Egress records with the built-in `H264_720P_30` preset: 1280×720 at 30 fps, 3000 kbps H.264 MAIN video and 128 kbps AAC audio. For a one-hour meeting this produces a file of roughly **1.4 GB**, which is often heavier than necessary for talking-head content and screen sharing.
+Every video recording is encoded from a default resolved from `RECORDING_ENCODING_DEFAULT_PROFILE` + `RECORDING_ENCODING_DEFAULT_RESOLUTION` and passed to LiveKit as advanced `EncodingOptions`. The shipped defaults (`full` profile) match LiveKit's built-in `H264_720P_30` preset. For a one-hour meeting that produces a file of roughly **1.4 GB**, which is often heavier than necessary for talking-head content and screen sharing; lowering the default profile/resolution shrinks it. If either default is left unset, no custom default encoding is built: a warning is logged at startup and LiveKit's built-in preset is used instead.
 
-The `RECORDING_ENCODING_*` settings let operators override this preset without modifying the source. Values are passed straight through LiveKit's `EncodingOptions.advanced` to the GStreamer pipeline (`x264enc` for video, `faac` for audio), so there are no hidden conversions — what you set is what the encoder receives.
+Encoding is chosen from two maps: `RECORDING_ENCODING_AVAILABLE_RESOLUTIONS` (`resolution → {"width", "height"}`) and `RECORDING_ENCODING_AVAILABLE_PROFILES` (`profile → {"fps", "kbps": {resolution: video_bitrate_kbps}}`):
+
+- **Default**: `RECORDING_ENCODING_DEFAULT_PROFILE` + `RECORDING_ENCODING_DEFAULT_RESOLUTION` set the encoding used by every recording that doesn't override it. Leave either unset to fall back to LiveKit's built-in preset (a startup warning is emitted).
+- **Per recording (opt-in)**: set `RECORDING_CUSTOM_ENCODING_ENABLED=True` to let clients override the default per recording. The start-recording API then accepts an `encoding` object selecting a `resolution` (required) and `profile` (optional): a resolution-only request keeps `RECORDING_ENCODING_DEFAULT_PROFILE` for fps and bitrate, so clients can only pick from pre-defined values. When `RECORDING_CUSTOM_ENCODING_ENABLED=False`, the API rejects any per-recording `encoding` and the default is used.
+
+The resolved values are passed straight through LiveKit's `EncodingOptions.advanced` to the GStreamer pipeline (`x264enc` for video, `faac` for audio), so there are no hidden conversions — what the profile/resolution resolve to is what the encoder receives.

 The H.264 profile is fixed to MAIN and the x264 `speed-preset` to `veryfast` by LiveKit (real-time constraint) — lowering the framerate is therefore the main lever to save CPU, while lowering the bitrate is the main lever to shrink the output file.
 
-### Reference profiles
+### Built-in profiles
 
-Rough 30-minute file-size estimates assume video + audio bitrate multiplied by duration. Actual sizes vary with content (static talking heads compress better than heavy screen motion). Egress CPU figures are indicative, measured on a single Ryzen laptop core saturated by the default preset (= 100 %); scaling is roughly linear with `framerate × bitrate` but the absolute numbers depend on the host hardware.
+The default `RECORDING_ENCODING_AVAILABLE_PROFILES` ship four profiles. Framerate is fixed per profile; video bitrate (kbps) scales with resolution so quality stays consistent across sizes. File size scales roughly with `framerate × bitrate`, and so does egress CPU cost.

+To pick a profile per recording (requires `RECORDING_CUSTOM_ENCODING_ENABLED=True`), the client sends it in the start-recording request:
 
-Environment variables for the **Low CPU / small file** profile:
+```json
+{
+  "mode": "screen_recording",
+  "options": {"encoding": {"resolution": "720p", "profile": "talking_heads"}}
+}
+```
+
+To change the default encoding applied to every recording:
 
 ```bash
-RECORDING_ENCODING_ENABLED=True
-RECORDING_ENCODING_WIDTH=1280
-RECORDING_ENCODING_HEIGHT=720
-RECORDING_ENCODING_FRAMERATE=15
-RECORDING_ENCODING_VIDEO_BITRATE_KBPS=600
+RECORDING_ENCODING_DEFAULT_RESOLUTION=720p
+RECORDING_ENCODING_DEFAULT_PROFILE=talking_heads
 RECORDING_ENCODING_AUDIO_BITRATE_KBPS=64
 RECORDING_ENCODING_KEY_FRAME_INTERVAL_S=4.0
 ```
 
 ### Caveats
 
-- **Screen-share readability — think bits/frame, not bitrate**: at 720p, text legibility starts to break down below ~40 kbits/frame (= `bitrate ÷ framerate`). The recommended preset (600 kbps × 15 fps) sits at exactly that threshold, comfortable for talking heads with occasional slide sharing. The same 600 kbps at 30 fps would only deliver 20 kbits/frame and visibly blur dense slides — which is why **lowering framerate is a more screen-share-friendly lever than lowering bitrate**. For deck-heavy or IDE-share meetings, prefer the **Slide-heavy** profile (900 kbps × 15 fps ≈ 60 kbits/frame).
+- **Screen-share readability — think bits/frame, not bitrate**: at 720p, text legibility starts to break down below ~40 kbits/frame (= `bitrate ÷ framerate`). The `talking_heads` profile (700 kbps × 15 fps) sits just above that threshold, comfortable for talking heads with occasional slide sharing. The same bitrate at 30 fps would only deliver ~23 kbits/frame and visibly blur dense slides — which is why **lowering framerate is a more screen-share-friendly lever than lowering bitrate**. For deck-heavy or IDE-share meetings, prefer the **`text`** profile (1000 kbps × 15 fps ≈ 67 kbits/frame).
 - **Motion handling**: the `veryfast` x264 preset is set by LiveKit and cannot be overridden here. Low-bitrate settings will therefore show more artefacts on fast motion than an offline re-encode with a slower preset would. This is the other reason FPS reduction is the safer tuning lever for meeting recordings.
 - **Audio**: AAC at 64 kbps stereo is transparent for voice but starts to compress music noticeably. Keep 128 kbps if you expect music playback in meetings.
 - **Codec choice**: H.264 MAIN is hardcoded on purpose. Switching to HEVC or VP9 would increase egress CPU cost 2×–5×, defeating the goal of this tuning.
