Two private formatters mapped the canonical server resolution label to
display text (media_quality_labels, media_version) with edge-case
drift, and several single-consumer helpers added indirection without
callers:
- add shared resolutionDisplayLabel in resolution_label.dart and
migrate MediaVersion.displayLabel and the quality-label builder to it
- drop the resolutionLabelFromHeight compat re-export from
jellyfin_mappers (no remaining consumers) and its stale doc note
- delete TraktCatalogSource.membershipKeysFor, byte-identical to the
CatalogWatchlistMachinery default
- derive the rating sheet backend label from
MediaBrowserDialect.productName instead of a hardcoded switch
- inline EndpointFailoverManager into failover_http_client.dart, its
only importer, and remove endpoint_failover_interceptor.dart
Sheets rendered at the host's maximum height regardless of content, so a
one-item player queue or a two-track picker filled ~75% of a desktop window
with empty space.
BottomSheetPageScaffold now always lays out Column(mainAxisSize: .min) plus
Flexible(child:), and each sheet body shrink-wraps its own scrollable. The
scaffold's shrinkWrap flag is gone: its old true branch put the child on an
unbounded axis, where an over-tall list overflowed instead of clamping and
scrolling. Measured on a 1600x1000 window, the chapter sheet goes from 750px
to 118px for one chapter and the two-column track sheet from 750px to 154px
for one audio and one subtitle track, both still clamping at the cap.
Add SheetSplitColumns for the three side-by-side sheet layouts. A bare
VerticalDivider has no intrinsic height, so it inflated those rows to the cap
on its own; the rule now paints from a Positioned.fill that cannot size the
Stack. IntrinsicHeight is not an option because a Viewport has no intrinsics.
Because sheets are bottom-anchored, a content-driven height moves the sheet's
top edge and everything above the change point. Three surfaces opt out for
that reason and say so at the call site: SubtitleSearchSheet and its language
picker keep filling, since both refilter under an autofocused field;
FiltersBottomSheet holds the outgoing page's height through its loading
transient; and RatingBottomSheet no longer hides MAL/AniList rows
asynchronously, which used to slide live rating controls down two rows several
hundred ms after open. Wrap the shared StateMessageWidget at the filters sheet
boundary rather than editing a widget with 33 filling call sites.
The host gains an AnimatedSize keyed per sheet session so nested pushes ease
while a replacing show adopts its own height, a 720px absolute height ceiling
on desktop windows only, and a min(max(25%, 96px), 60%) drag-dismiss threshold
so short sheets neither close on a nudge nor become undismissable.
Add videoControls.noAudioDevicesAvailable so the audio output page shows a
placeholder instead of a bare header while devices load.
Emby is Jellyfin's upstream ancestor and speaks a near-identical MediaBrowser
API, so the existing Jellyfin stack is parameterised by a `MediaBrowserDialect`
rather than forked. `JellyfinClient`, its auth service, endpoint discovery, LAN
discovery, and the add/edit connection screens all take the dialect and keep one
implementation; `MediaBackend.emby` and `ConnectionKind.emby` carry it through
the neutral models, the Drift `kind` discriminator, downloads, and caches.
Every divergence below was measured against a live Emby 4.9.5 server, not
inferred from documentation, and each is documented at its capability getter.
Jellyfin's request strings stay byte-identical so nothing about its behaviour
changes.
Routes and auth
- Emby only accepts the pre-10.9 user-scoped item routes (`/Users/{id}/Items/…`,
`/Users/{id}/PlayedItems/…`, `/Users/{id}/FavoriteItems/…`); the unprefixed
forms Jellyfin 10.11 added return 404.
- The API is also served under a legacy `/emby` prefix, and both dialects accept
the token as `X-Emby-Token` or `api_key=`.
- Emby answers only its own LAN discovery datagram ("who is EmbyServer?") and
ignores Jellyfin's; its default HTTPS port is 8920.
- No `/QuickConnect` route exists, so Quick Connect stays Jellyfin-only.
Row fields Emby withholds
- `ProductionYear`, `OfficialRating`, `PremiereDate` and `DateCreated` are absent
from list rows unless named in `Fields`, which would otherwise strip the year
and age-rating badge from every card in the app.
- `UserData.LastPlayedDate` never appears on a list row under `Fields=UserData`,
`EnableUserData=true` or the user-scoped `Ids=` form — only on the single-item
detail route, or when the Emby-specific `UserDataLastPlayedDate` token is
requested. Without it every recency-ordered surface silently degrades to
library-add time, and `JellyfinApiCache.applyWatchState` stamps
`DateTime.now()` on watched rows, so an offline watch-state pull would rewrite
the cached play time of everything it walked.
Continue Watching and Next Up
- Emby computes Next Up per series only: the library-wide `/Shows/NextUp` query
returns nothing under every parameter combination tried. The shelf is
therefore reconstructed from a played-episode recency scan plus one
`/Shows/NextUp?SeriesId=` per distinct series, bounded by a shared wall clock
that covers the scan as well — per-request timeouts cannot bound the pass
because `MediaServerHttpClient` times the connect and receive phases
independently. Rows are stamped with their series' newest play from the same
response that ordered them, so no per-series enrichment request is needed.
- `/Shows/NextUp` ignores `NextUpDateCutoff`, and no server-side played-date
filter exists to delegate to (`MinDatePlayed` and `MinDateLastPlayed` are
ignored; `MinDateLastSaved`, `MinDateCreated` and `MinPremiereDate` filter
unrelated dates), so the 365-day window is applied to the scanned dates.
- The resume route returns items with no saved position, including plain next
episodes, so the Emby resume leg reads from `/Items?Filters=IsResumable`.
- Emby is ahead of Jellyfin in one place: `/Users/{id}/Items/{id}/HideFromResume`
makes Continue Watching removal a real capability.
Everything else
- `/Sessions/Playing` and `/Sessions/Playing/Progress` reject a body with no
`PlaySessionId` (HTTP 400), so playback reporting always sends one.
- Passing any `MediaTypes` value to the playlist query returns an empty list.
- There is no aggregate `/Items/Filters` route; the four filter facets are
reassembled from `/Genres`, `/OfficialRatings`, `/Studios` and `/Tags`.
- Metadata writes take name-pair lists (`Genres: [{'Name': 'Action'}]`); the
plain string array is accepted and then silently discarded.
- Custom artwork uploads must be base64 text, not raw bytes — which was broken
for Jellyfin too and is fixed for both.
- Trickplay, media segments and lyrics 404 on Emby, so scrub previews are absent
and intro/credit markers fall back to chapter names.
Verified against a local Emby 4.9.5 and a Jellyfin 10.11.11 control server:
onboarding, browse, detail, playable stream URLs serving real bytes, subtitle
sidecars, watch-state write and restore, hubs, cross-server aggregation and
search across both backends simultaneously.
Introduces shared seams for paginated views, D-pad reorder, media control
routing, async singletons and the device method channel, then points the
open-coded copies at them.
Also removes unused models and duplicated provider/server plumbing, folds
the twice-implemented artifact store in the server, and factors the
repeated Flutter toolchain prologue in CI into a composite action.
Replace the per-tracker json_serializable session classes and account stores with a shared TrackerSession (service-aware persisted validation), a single TrackerAccountStore, a shared TrackerHttpClient, and an AnimeListTrackerBase mixin for MAL/AniList. Scope the per-service rebind guard so a disconnect can't abort a racing profile load. Add migration-safety, MAL refresh, episode-count cache, and content-type tests.
