Description

I'm not sure if it's an issue in scrcpy.

With scaling setting "Best for Retina Display" scrcpy running in VM shows cropped image:

However, with both "Scaled" and "More Space" it works fine:

I don't know how to debug it.

Research direction

Reproduce scrcpy in a macOS Parallels VM using the “Best for Retina Display” setting, then compare it with “Scaled” and “More Space” using the supplied screenshots. Trace the display-scaling path to identify why the image is cropped; done means the cause is confirmed and the Retina configuration no longer produces a cropped image.
