Shared HLS cache session feature and aligns the runtime, cache, provisioning, recovery, custom-response, and documentation paths with the new shared-session model.
* catchup fixes
* feat(frontend): bookmarkable views via URL hash deep linking
Persist the active view to the URL hash so views are bookmarkable and
survive a page refresh. Restore the view from the hash on load, sync the
hash on navigation, and handle browser back/forward via a hashchange listener.

Schedule a client-side logout when the JWT expires, showing a
notification and returning the user to the login screen instead of
silently failing with 401s.
* chore(vscode): update tasks.json
* New Features
Session expiration detection with proactive logout warning
Real-time health status banner showing connectivity and provider status
Live metric sparklines for CPU, memory, and network usage
Deep-linkable views via URL hash with back/forward browser support
Enhanced empty states with guided messages across app sections
Improvements

* feat(ui): toast progress bar, pause-on-hover, and copy-details for errors
Add a countdown progress bar to auto-dismiss toasts, pause both the timer and bar on hover (resuming with remaining time), and a 'copy details' action on error toasts. Respects prefers-reduced-motion.
* feat(ui): confirm destructive download/recording cancel and remove
Route the download/recording cancel and remove actions through the shared ConfirmDialog (which focuses the safe Cancel button by default), matching the existing confirmation flow for user/target/RBAC deletes.
* feat(ui): runtime-discovered languages with manifest and RTL support
Load available UI languages at runtime from assets/i18n/index.json, add a toolbar language picker (shown when >1 language), persist the choice, and set document dir/lang for RTL languages such as Arabic.
* feat(ui): recoverable error boundary with per-view retry fallback
Add an ErrorBoundary component (context handle + use_error_boundary hook) that shows a recoverable fallback with a retry button instead of blanking a section. Wrap each main view and the API-user playlist individually so a failure in one view stays contained and the rest of the UI keeps working.
* fix(api): use async canonicalize in local file stream handler
Replace the blocking std path.canonicalize() in local_stream_response with tokio::fs::canonicalize().await so the async runtime is not blocked while resolving the local media file path.
* Add Escape-to-close keyboard support for popup menus
Popup menus now close on Escape in addition to outside mouse-down, improving keyboard accessibility.
* Use descriptive alt text for logo and channel logo images
Login and sidebar logo images now use the configured app title, and playlist channel logos use the channel title, improving screen-reader accessibility.
* Add explicit type=button to shared button primitives
IconButton and TextButton now render with type=button to prevent accidental form submission when used inside forms.
* Persist sidebar collapsed state and table page size
The sidebar collapsed/expanded state and the stream-history table page size are now saved to localStorage and restored on reload, matching the already-persisted theme preference.
* Debounce filter editor input parsing
The filter editor textarea no longer re-parses, previews, and emits the filter on every keystroke. The textarea stays responsive via an immediate value while parsing and change notifications are debounced (300ms).
* Show localized message in table empty state
Data/paged tables now render the No content label in their empty state instead of an icon with no text. Sticky headers were already present.
* feat(frontend): improve screen-reader support for sidebar and toasts
* fix(frontend): handle missing window gracefully in sidebar
* feat(frontend): cross-dissolve colors on theme switch
* feat(frontend): add card hover lift, button press feedback, animated chevrons
* Removed code duplicates
* Fix HLS session handling and disable retry for adaptive segment requests
* Resolve / probe vod task uses last modified date
* Resolve expiration date in input form
* fixed m3u parsing
* fixed wasm opt for frontend build
* Fixed issues with probe and resolve tasks
* hls and catchup session fixes
* fixed problem with grace and shared stream
- added fix for missing episode title
* keep user table info in frontend when switched to custom video stream
* Fixed problems caused by yew upgrade because of UseStateHandle and UseReducerHandle PartialEq change.
* reformatted
* Optimized build
* timeout secs for custom video response
* init custom video timeout on mode switch
* terminate immediately when custom video buffer is missing

* fix ts loop duration estimation to use min/max timestamps
* harden pes timestamp patching and normalize pid cc sequence
* Resource ffmpeg creation without B-Frames and short GOPs
* Discontinuity patch for transport stream buffer
* grace hold stream is now default true

An optimization has been introduced to reduce memory consumption during playlist updates.
Overview
Previously, provider playlists were fully loaded into memory during the update process. For large playlists (e.g. hundreds of thousands of entries or multiple providers), this could result in significant RAM usage.
With the new implementation, it is now possible to optionally read provider playlists directly from disk instead of keeping them entirely in memory.
How It Works
- users can configure whether:
- Provider playlists are loaded into memory (previous behavior), or
- Provider playlists are streamed to/from disk to minimize RAM usage.
Processing remains sequential and batch-based, ensuring identical functional behavior.
This approach significantly lowers peak memory usage, especially on systems with limited resources.
Benefits
- Reduced peak RAM consumption during playlist updates
- Better scalability for large playlists and multiple providers
- Full backward compatibility
Trade-offs / Drawbacks
- Increased processing time due to reduced in-memory caching
- Higher disk I/O usage, especially for large or fragmented playlists
- Performance depends more strongly on disk speed (Nvme SSD, HDD)
- Slightly increased CPU overhead due to repeated parsing and deserialization
- Not optimal for environments where fast updates are more important than memory usage
Recommendation
- Use in-memory mode for systems with sufficient RAM and a focus on update speed
- Use disk-based mode for large playlists, multiple providers, or memory-constrained environments
