HEVC files played through the mpv backend on the Nvidia Shield show a
solid blue screen with audio: under hwdec=mediacodec, gpu-next samples
the decoder output as a samplerExternalOES that libplacebo declares in
both shader stages, and the Tegra GLES linker rejects the pair ("struct
type mismatch between shaders for uniform"), failing every frame. The
in-chain gpu fallback never engages because gpu-next initializes fine,
and mpv/libplacebo master reproduce it unchanged.
DV reshaping — the reason gpu-next exists on Android — only happens
under software decode, so offer gpu-next exactly there and keep the
legacy gpu VO for hardware sessions on both the primary mpv backend and
the ExoPlayer fallback core.

Searching a name shared by a movie, a show, and audio drowns the wanted
item in episode and track rows. The search screen now offers kind chips
(All, Movies, TV Shows, ...) above the results; chips derive from the
pre-rank candidate pool, and selecting one re-ranks that kind's
candidates with the full display budget, so a kind crowded out of the
trimmed All view still surfaces everything the servers returned for it.
Chip switches never refetch, and the filter falls back to All when a
refined query no longer returns its kind.

Removing an item from Continue Watching on Emby posts HideFromResume,
which only the dedicated /Users/{uid}/Items/Resume route honors: the
IsResumable /Items query and the per-series /Shows/NextUp lookups kept
returning hidden rows, so removed items blipped back on every refresh.
Emby's dedicated route conflates both shelves (in-progress items plus
one zero-position next episode per started series), so every playback
surface now reads one hide-aware window from it and splits the rows by
PlaybackPositionTicks: positive rows feed Continue Watching, zero-
position episode rows feed Next Up. The 1+N per-series Next Up
reconstruction is deleted; one recency scan still supplies the play
dates and the NextUpDateCutoff window. Jellyfin request strings are
unchanged.

Browsing artwork showed PMS PhotoTranscoder log lines flagged
"upscaled: 1" on every request. The flag merely echoes the upscale=1
query param Plezy sent on every cover request (PMS prints it before
locating the source, including on cache hits and pure downscales), but
the param had a real cost: whenever the requested box exceeded the
source — hero art at the 4K display budget (3840x2160 requests against
the near-universal 1920x1080 agent art), portrait backdrops on >1080p
phones — PMS genuinely enlarged the image server-side. Verified against
PMS 1.43: ~2.5x the transcode time and transfer bytes for zero rendered
detail, since the client covers the slot on the GPU regardless and the
fit-policy decode bounds never enlarge.
Send upscale=0 on cover requests too: downscale output is byte-identical
and oversized requests now return the native image. Jellyfin needs no
change — MaxWidth/MaxHeight never enlarge.

Closing the window now runs a graceful exit (so trackers get their
terminal scrobble), but the teardown kept the window on screen for
seconds while screens visibly emptied as servers disconnected.
Hide the window as the first step of exit teardown, bounded so a
stalled platform channel cannot hold an already-accepted exit open, and
cover every graceful-exit entry (window X, Cmd+Q, OS-initiated), not
just the close button. Add a terminal MultiServerManager.shutdown() that
closes the status streams before draining clients: the still-mounted
widget tree must never observe an "all servers gone" snapshot mid-exit,
which would flip the app into offline UI and dismantle screens (and
with it the teardown-driven AppLifecycleListener used-after-dispose
assert). A health result landing after shutdown is a silent no-op.
Supersedes the flag-based approach in #1999.
Exiting the player after enough progress moved the played item to the front of Continue Watching left D-pad focus at its old position, now occupied by a completely different item.
TvBrowseRail and HubSection now remap the focused index to follow the focused item identity when a hub reorders underneath it, falling back to the same series replacement entry when a finished episode is swapped for the next one, and HubSection focus memory is remapped so re-entering the row lands on the same item.

Connected MDBList accounts were omitted from Explore, so their watchlists could not be selected or displayed. Register the profile-scoped MDBList client as a catalog source with watchlist mutations and search.

A relay connection can win the phase-1 race (plex.tv edge answers fast),
gets saved as the preferred endpoint, and the cached URL then wins the
deterministic head-start probe at every bind — pinning future sessions to
relay's 2 Mbps cap even after direct connectivity returns, surfacing as
HTTP 500s on Original quality. A session that lands on relay legitimately
(direct down at connect time) stays there all evening: re-optimization
only fired on connectivity events.
Relay is now a fallback tier in the race: all probes still start at once,
but a relay success is held until every direct candidate has failed, and a
cached relay URL gets no head start. A single persist gate refuses relay
at all four endpoint-save sites, classified against both the live server
and the connect-time capture so rotated relay URIs cannot slip through.
While the active endpoint is relay, a bounded-backoff re-probe (30s/60s/
120s) re-races the candidates so a returning direct endpoint promotes
away without a restart.
There was no way to tell from the detail screen that a movie or episode
has multiple versions (theatrical/extended cuts, 1080p/4K encodes); the
only entry point was the hidden Play Version item in the overflow menu.
The Play button now becomes a Material 3 Expressive split button when
the item carries more than one version and its server is reachable: the
main segment keeps plain Play (which already resumes the remembered
version), and a narrower chevron segment runs the existing Play Version
flow (version picker, quality picker when the backend can transcode,
preference save). The flow itself is extracted from the context menu
into a shared promptAndPlayVersion helper, and FocusableActionBar gains
per-action spacingBefore so the joined pair can sit tighter than the
rest of the row. Transcode-only quality picking stays in the overflow
menu so the chevron keeps signaling a real version choice.
close#1881
Changing playback speed, shader preset, aspect ratio, or a sync offset in
the player always rewrote the global default, so a show watched at 1.5x
forced 1.5x onto movies, an Anime4K pick followed the user into
live-action libraries, and a file-specific subtitle offset leaked onto the
next title.
Each of those settings now has a scope under Settings > Video Playback >
Remember Player Changes: don't save, everywhere (default, pre-existing
behavior), per library, or per show/movie. Player writes route through the
configured scope; playback start and in-place item changes resolve the
value for the current item, falling back to the global default. Items
without the needed identity (live TV placeholders, Jellyfin/Emby downloads
without a stamped library) keep the global behavior. Resolution consults
only the configured scope, so entries saved under a previous scope become
inert instead of shadowing the new one.

On iOS and Apple TV the lock screen, Control Center, and iPhone remote card only offered previous/next track for video, so the transport buttons restarted the episode or jumped to the next one instead of skipping a few seconds.
MediaControlsManager suppressed the MPRemoteCommandCenter skip commands on all Darwin platforms because they displace the next/previous buttons — the right call for music, the wrong one for video. The suppression is now a per-surface policy: the video player opts in with preferSkipOverTrackButtons and advertises the in-player small-skip step (seekTimeSmall, default 10s) via setSkipIntervals, while music keeps next/previous as its lock-screen transport. Skip events already routed through MediaControlRouter to _seekRelative on every platform, so the OS-echoed interval drives the actual seek.

On Fire TV, invoking Alexa and dismissing its overlay popped the profile
picker over a still-playing session: MainScreen treated every resumed
lifecycle event as an app open and re-applied "ask for profile on open".
The Alexa overlay only produces inactive -> resumed, which the handler
could not tell apart from a real return to the foreground.
Track the deepest lifecycle state since the last resume in a small gate
(ProfileSelectionResumeGate): only a genuine backgrounding (hidden,
paused, or detached) arms the prompt for the next resume. This also
keeps iOS working, where returning from the background arrives as
hidden -> inactive -> resumed.

On Shield Experience 8.x (API 28) ExoPlayer force-decoded TrueHD to
multi-channel PCM, and enabling passthrough on the mpv backend made every
non-AAC file wedge on an infinite buffering spinner with no audio pipeline
at all.
Two defects behind one symptom pair:
- The MAT/DTS-HD carrier oracle stopped at API 29 because
AudioTrack.isDirectPlaybackSupported does not exist below it, so API 24-28
never offered the carrier even on routes that genuinely bitstream it. Below
API 29 the HDMI AudioDeviceInfo is the only vouching signal, so the carrier
is now offered when an HDMI output explicitly advertises IEC 61937 at
192kHz/8ch; unspecified (empty) capability arrays deliberately do not
count, because an unvouched IEC track that initialises without being
bitstreamed renders as full-scale noise. A route that advertises and still
refuses the track fails AudioTrack init into the existing force-decode
recovery.
- The mpv audio-spdif list was gated on the raw encodings the route
advertises, but mpv's audiotrack AO opens every spdif format as a stereo
ENCODING_IEC61937 track clamped to the 48kHz mixer rate. E-AC3, TrueHD and
DTS-HD MA structurally cannot survive that shape, and a route can advertise
raw encodings while its HAL takes no IEC track at all - naming any codec
there leaves mpv's audio chain stuck before AO init (reproduced on a Shield:
spdif_ac3 selected, no AudioTrack ever opened, playback never starts). The
list is now capped to ac3,dts and additionally gated on the route accepting
the stereo IEC shape, using the same tiered oracle as the carrier. The
primary mpv backend previously wrote a hardcoded five-codec list from Dart;
it now asks the plugin to derive the value from the audio route, like the
ExoPlayer fallback already did.
Verified on a Shield (API 30) with a full-capability EDID: TrueHD rides the
carrier and survives speed transitions (instrumentation), and an E-AC3 title
that previously wedged under mpv+passthrough now decodes and plays with
audio-spdif=ac3,dts.

Brings in the feedback-driven fixes: user-assigned Plex playlist
posters, square music-grid gutters, grouped artist discography
(albums/singles & EPs/live/compilations for Plex), and the guide
day-jump rework (mounted reloads, immediate day apply, focus
retention).
Square-card (music) grids had zero delegate spacing - the only
separation was each card's internal 3px padding, and square shapes are
excluded from the full-card spacing path, so playlist and album tiles
sat nearly edge to edge. Square grids now get an 8px cross/main gutter
(automotive keeps its larger spacing); poster, list, and full-card
layouts are unchanged.
Artist pages showed one flat album grid, unlike Plex's own clients.
Plex listing rows never carry Format/Subformat tags (even with
resolveTags=1), so fetchArtistDiscography follows the unchanged album
listing with one batched /library/metadata/{ids} request - whose rows
do include the tags - and classifies each album individually
(EP/Single, then live, then compilation, case-insensitively). A failed
tag fetch degrades to the flat list, and single-album artists skip the
lookup entirely. Jellyfin/Emby carry no album taxonomy on the wire and
return a single albums group.
The artist screen renders one titled section per non-empty group
(single-group artists keep the flat grid), with the grid focus index
space offset per section so D-pad traversal crosses section
boundaries.
PMS versions before the ~1.43 hub refresh omit a show's inherited clearLogo
image from episode/season hub rows, so the Discover hero fell back to the
title for TV series while movies (which carry their own logo) and the show's
detail page (which reads the show metadata directly) kept theirs.
Resolve the missing owners' logos in one bulk /library/metadata request
(comma-joined rating keys) and stamp them onto the rows, mirroring the
grandparent lookup Plex Web performs. Best-effort: a failed lookup never
fails the shelf and is retried on the next refresh.
The guide replaced itself with a bare spinner on every window change,
unmounting the day-picker anchor and the guide focus node - after one
day or time change the pickers silently no-oped and the remote went
dead. Picking a day also applied nothing by itself: the window only
moved after the second (time-slot) menu, so backing out of it read as
'the day picker does not work'.
The grid now stays mounted during in-session reloads behind a light
loading overlay, a day pick re-anchors the window immediately (the slot
menu is an optional refinement), D-pad SELECT arms the key-up
suppressor before opening the menu, and the day chip uses the existing
'Tomorrow' translation.
Plex emits an auto-generated composite mosaic for every playlist, so the
displayImagePath fallback order (composite first) meant a poster the user
assigned in Plex could never appear. Prefer thumbPath and fall back to the
composite; no-op for Jellyfin/Emby, which never set a composite.
Main stopped compiling: the v21 column drop treated cached_at as
never-read, but the fresh-cache-first playback metadata gate
(ApiCacheSingleton.getIfFresh, from the playback start-latency fix)
reads it on every Plex and Jellyfin playback start, and a later
cleanup removed the put() stamp the gate depends on.
Reinstate the column, keep the v21 migration to the connections
half only (it never shipped in a release), restore the explicit
put() timestamp - on conflict the upsert only updates the
companion's columns, so without it a refreshed row would keep its
original write time and read as permanently stale - and copy
cached_at through the pinned-metadata rescope statement again. The
v21 migration test now pins that api_cache is left untouched.
Plex Live TV lost DVB subtitles when 2.10 moved the live path to HLS
(#1983): the transcode starts with subtitles=none, which drops a
tuner's bitmap subtitle streams from the output entirely - unlike
in-band CEA captions, they are separate elementary streams.
The tune response now surfaces the part's embedded bitmap subtitle
streams as selectable tracks in the player's subtitle menu. Picking one
points the part's server-side selection at that stream and rebuilds the
live transcode with subtitles=burn, preserving the time-shift position.
Off stays the default so tuner captions are never auto-burned (#1590),
and channels without bitmap streams keep the native track list. The
selection survives stream recovery by re-mapping onto the re-tuned
session's streams and resets on channel zap. Jellyfin live sessions
record subtitle selection as intentionally unsupported: their one
negotiated URL has no rebuild to deliver it through.
MemoryLogOutput extended LogOutput but was never wired as a Logger output (storage happens in the printer); DeletionNotifier/WatchStateNotifier's forServer/forItem filtered streams and WatchStateEvent.mediaType had no production consumers (tests now filter .stream directly); context.hiddenLibraries/profileSettings and toPlexUrl had zero call sites; MonoTokens.splashFactory was never read; OptimizedMediaImage's enableTranscoding/cacheKey chains, FocusableMediaCard.width/height/forceGridMode, TvBrowseRail's constant-zero gap functions, and media_image_helper's scaleFactor were never varied by any caller. The sha1 LRU stays (rebuild-hot artwork URLs); TvRailTrailing.none and the mono-theme copyWith stay live (lerp delegates to copyWith). Also carries the MusicPlayContext.id argument drops in the music screens and remaining sweep test updates.
Participant.lastKnownPosition had zero reads or writes; SessionState.disconnected was never constructed, making isInSession's comparison tautological (now _session != null); the session indicator's onLeaveSession callback had no production passer; enterRoom's bool was awaited and discarded. Music engine: MusicPlayContext.id and sleepTimerEndsAt were write-only, and the coordinator constructor seam was never injected.
plex_client.selectStreams' allParts=false branch, download_manager's both-branches-true conditional and unscoped getAllPinnedMetadata tail, playback_source_resolver.preferOffline, and update_service's unreachable catches had no reachable path; PlaybackSession.result/streamHeaders, PlaybackContext.clientScopeId, FileInfoStreams.audioStream, PrefsRepairOutcome.settingsReset/sessionsSalvaged, and JellyfinLiveSessionTracker.playSessionId were write-only; PlexConnection.directUrl, PlexServer.isOnline plus its parse-and-persist presence field, SafStorageService.createDirectory, FullscreenStateManager.stopMonitoring/dispose, the play_queue_launcher re-export shim, track-selection's constant params, and PlexApiCache.unpinForOffline/isPinnedRatingKey (matching the earlier Jellyfin removal) were dead API.
classifyPosition's return enum was discarded by its only production caller (rearm is the side effect that matters); the latch's tolerance/retry knobs were never tuned; _loadAdjacentEpisodes' result was unread by all three callers; countsAsApplied carried a subsumed disjunct and _syncMediaControlsAvailability a stale-generation guard with no suspension point before it; _SettingsView.audioSync/subtitleSync could never be current (both routes early-return into the sync bar); PerformanceStats.dvRpuOutputTooSmall/dvPlaybackReason and ContentStrip.chaptersLoaded were written but never read.
plex_pin_auth_flow's QR knobs, ProfileNameField's navigation params, MusicDetailHeader.wideArtworkSize, and _buildReorderableList's bool were never passed; DownloadType.manage was never constructed; MediaContextMenu.onTap was declared but never invoked — removed with its four card passes (each card's own gesture handlers stay); the pin dialog's obscure chain was always true and _PinKey.label's icon branches unreachable; libraries_screen._isInitialLoad was write-only; LiveTvActionsMixin loses dead findChannel (the generic parameter stays — required by the on-clause, the report was wrong); add_jellyfin's focus-map removal branch ran only against an empty map; the recommended tab's hub-key null fallback was dead behind _ensureHubKeys. media_card also loses its always-false seasonal-rank comparison from the CatalogRankScope removal.
hidden_libraries' constructor always seeds _initFuture, so ensureInitialized's ?? _initialize() fallback could never run (field now late final); _loadLibrariesInternal returned a bool no caller read; OfflineModeProvider.refresh() had zero call sites; ExploreScreen's Refreshable application was dispatched by nobody (only the discover tab and library tabs are dispatched); the discover null-serverId branch stays — the TV spotlight resolver passes null items during initial load.
getServerBoundPlexClient/getClientForLibrary existed only for their own unit tests; MetadataEditAdapter.backend and Plex's unreachable prefKey fallback and music-kind branches had no production path (edit is double-gated on supportsKind); MainScreenFocusScope's focus aspect, isSidebarFocused, and focusContent were write-only; resolveActivePlexIdentity.preferredAccount was never passed; ProfileRegistry.get was unused outside tests — its removal exposed a stale test contract, now pinned correctly: list() deliberately never serves plex_home rows.
Parse-only DTO surface deleted across trackers and catalog models: quality-preset storageKey/fromStorage round-trips (persistence uses EnumPref on .name), PlexHome's placeholder identity fields (id stays — deriveHomeSecret reads it), SeerrUser.email/avatar, SimklSearchResult.endpointType, SimklDetail.type, SimklAllItemsEntry.status/isShow, TraktCatalogEntry.rank, CatalogItem.relevance, and the never-produced CatalogRankScope.favorited/.seasonal members with their label arms. Tracker root: OAuthProxyStart.expiresIn, TrackerSession.scope/isExpired, copyWith slimmed to its one real parameter, TrackerHttpClient.service. TrackerAccountStore.service and the trackerAccountStore() alias are live (persisted-blob validation, callers) and stay.
PlexMediaItem.subtitleMode/extraType were mapped from DTOs and never read (subtype stays — the detail screen's trailer picker destructures it); MediaPlaylist.copyWith, PagedMediaListState.mapItems, isMusicContent/isCollection, and MediaHub.copyWith's eight never-passed params had zero call sites; LiveTvActivityResult wrapped reloadGuide results nobody unwrapped (now Future<void>); PlayerLogLevel.none was unreachable — nothing parses or produces it; MediaSourceInfo.getPartId() was an accessor over its own public field.
TvTextInputAutoOpenBehavior.onFocus/.onFirstFocus were handled by both TV-keyboard state machines but selected by no caller; FocusableWrapper.longPressDuration duplicated the controller's own 500ms default; FocusableActionBar.mainAxisSize was never passed; FocusableActionBuildState carried focusNode/isFocused/isKeyboardMode that no builder reads (AGENTS.md updated to document the surviving showFocus/animationDuration pair). includeFocusSemantics stays — focusable_media_card passes it.
connections.isDefault was maintained by three write paths (upsert preservation, remove-promotion, setDefault) that no production code ever read back; api_cache.cached_at was documented 'optional future use' and written on every cache store. Both columns are dropped in a v21 migration with row-preservation coverage; the dead write machinery, recordAuthSuccess, updateSyncRuleLastExecuted, getDownloadOwnerCount, and OfflineActionType.fromId (rejection semantics live in the sync service's explicit switch) go with them.
Recovery-image compatibility: committed tvOS snapshots written by older builds still carry isDefault in connections rows, and the restore decoder deliberately rejects rows that do not round-trip exactly. A retired-columns allowlist now strips such keys before the strict check, so pre-retirement images stay restorable — the legacy-plaintext restore test caught this and now pins it. _bindServerStatusListener in main.dart also loses its unused provider param and resolver indirection.
The screen's player stream subscriptions were enumerated by hand in four places (re-wire, rollback, dispose, plus a parallel nulling list) kept in sync only by prose — _cancelPlayerStreamSubscriptions is now the single cancel-and-null authority, living beside the fields. PlayerChromeFocusTarget was a one-value enum with request/consume plumbing, now a bool with identical post-frame consumption timing. The desktop tap and controls-overlay tap duplicated the click-toggles-playback/double-click-fullscreen contract around shared state, now one helper. SyncOffsetControl shipped two layouts of which production only ever rendered compact — the full layout existed solely for tests, which now cover the shipped layout. TrackControlsState's never-non-null onLoadSeekTimes/onSyncOffsetChanged sheet-compat callbacks are gone.
_getButtonCount re-implemented every button-visibility condition from build() and had already drifted: the screen-lock button incremented the built index but was never counted, so with rotation lock and screen lock both visible the reported total was one short and arrowRight on the last button silently died. Navigation now bounds against the actual built list, so there is no condition table left to drift; the dead onLoadSeekTimes sheet-compat callback invocation goes with it.
Grep-verified dead surface across shared widgets: the app-menu system's minWidth/maxWidth/childPadding/alignmentOffset knobs threaded through four layers with no caller ever passing them; FocusableListTile's suppressInitialSelect/hoverColor/textColor/iconColor machinery (~55 lines) reachable by no call site; OptimizedMediaImage.playlist with zero constructions; TvSpotlightBackground's primary-action button that neither caller can render; MediaGridDelegate.createDelegate whose only caller was a test (MediaGridGeometry.resolve is the single delegate composition now); and the CustomAppBar->Config->DesktopTopBar chain collapsed onto DesktopSliverAppBar with its ~11 never-passed passthrough params (snap kept — real callers pass it).
PlexMappers advertised a parse-and-map FromJson flavour of every mapper 'for callers that haven't already parsed a DTO' — no such production caller exists; every call site uses the DTO-typed flavour. Tests now parse the DTO and map it, preserving every assertion. The kBlurArtwork JSON-walking branches in the DTO factories (title/summary vowel rotation on the decode hot path) are deleted with the flag's title half.
TextInputDiagnostics.enabled and kBlurArtwork were mutable/const-false flags nothing ever set, yet the diagnostics side eagerly built log strings on the gamepad and key-simulator hot paths on every event. Both flags are now const bool.fromEnvironment (PLEZY_TEXT_INPUT_DIAGNOSTICS / PLEZY_BLUR_ARTWORK) so the branches const-fold away, every eager interpolation sits behind a guard, and screenshot blurring stays one dart-define away. The vowel-rotation title obfuscation had no consumer need beyond artwork blur and is gone.
HostCoordinatorCallbacks and GuestReconcilerCallbacks existed only to be unpacked by the controller through ten forwarding lambdas into its own flat fields. The engines now take individual nullable callbacks; the controller keeps its late-binding lambdas (the provider assigns the public fields after construction), and the test harnesses forward the callbacks they exercise.
SettingsService.resolveMuteToggle had zero production callers — the live mute policy moved to VideoVolumeController.toggleMute long ago, leaving two diverged implementations of the same rule. The two TV-aware pref defaults in the same file now read through the PlatformDetector facade like the rest of the app.
TV state had two interchangeable entry points — PlatformDetector.isTV/isAppleTV and the raw TvDetectionService.*Sync accessors — with call sites split arbitrarily between them. App code now goes through the facade; the raw accessors document that they exist for the facade and tests.
TraktClient's static per-refresh-token coalescer, initiating-vs-joiner branches, session-adoption identity checks, and both updateSession push methods defended a multi-client world production never creates — the one long-lived client is shared via TrackersProvider, and the two throwaway clients never refresh. Refresh now matches MalClient/MdblistClient's instance-coalescer shape. Simkl's _watchlistLoad field shadowed the identically-named coalescer on the mixin it applies (legal today, a trap on any future library merge) — renamed with comments distinguishing the two caches.
persistAndBindConnection's addToManager/visibleServerId parameters and post-commit manager phase had no production caller (the Jellyfin flow defers runtime pickup to the profile binder) — the function is void now. A failed Plex account add threw a StateError that PlexPinAuthFlow re-rendered as a raw 'Bad state:' string beside the already-rendered inline error; the flow's normal return already stops the spinner, so the inline error is the single surface.
The profile picker requested first-tile focus twice (FocusableWrapper.autofocus plus a one-shot post-frame requestFocus for the same node) — autofocus alone remains, verified by the picker's D-pad tests. The end-session/try/catch-resume skeleton was copied across deleteProfile, the Plex sign-out, and connection removal; withEndedProfileSession now owns the pause/recover scaffolding while each flow keeps its own success-path resume decision and error policy.
The audio-playlist play flow, the playlist download flow (including its inline MediaItem synthesis), the delete-with-confirm flow, and the fetch-artist-then-navigate flow each existed twice — once in MediaContextMenu and once in the playlist/album/now-playing screens, with 'Match PlaylistDetailScreen' comments standing in for shared code. They now live in music_navigation.dart and download_utils.dart with per-caller strings preserved; the menu's collection/playlist download handlers fold into one parameterized handler, its duplicated sync/download menu tree is built once, and the generic picker dialogs move to collection_picker_dialog.dart (pure move).
The pause/resume/ticker state machine (three gates, lifecycle observer, TickerMode subscription, timer sync) was triplicated across the What's On, Recordings, and Guide tabs — now LiveTvRefreshMixin, with the guide's drift catch-up layered on its hooks and the lifecycle test asserting the same contract against the shared implementation. Six hand-rolled multi-server loops share forEachLiveTvServer (the channel/favorites loaders deliberately iterate per DVR entry and say so). Recordings' Completer-based load drain became the same whenComplete coalescing shape the screen's channel loader already uses.
LibraryFilterSortLoader had one call site that constructed it with a constant client resolver and bypassed it for MediaBrowser anyway; the Plex branch now loads both futures inline with types instead of casts. LibrariesScreen's ItemUpdatable application ended in an empty no-op that would have burnt a network fetch had anything ever called it. The chips-bar grouping sheet re-built the browse-options grouping page's chrome by hand; both paths now render the same BottomSheetPageScaffold page.
TvosMenuPolicyPublisher batched an idempotent fire-and-forget publish behind a transaction-depth counter that could never exceed one across its three non-nesting call sites — the call sites now publish directly and the pure predicate keeps its test coverage. AppleTvRemoteTouchService exposed 14 injectable knobs of which only six are exercised anywhere (verified per knob); the other eight are private constants or internal construction now.
The catalog detail screen and the card badges each kept their own enum-to-i18n switches; the genuinely shared mappings (season name, rank scope, request state, status/format/relation labels) now live in catalog_labels.dart, while badge precedence and the deliberately different availability/4k wording stay local with comments naming the divergence.
