Closing an episode context menu (or its Rate / File Info sheets) on a
show opened from a Home section scrolled the detail page back to the
top, and on shows with many seasons jumped the season selector back to
the entered-from season. The Home path parks invisible focus on the
initial episode/season target; dismissing the menu restored focus to
that parked node, whose focus-gain auto-scroll then yanked the viewport.
Focus chrome is already keyboard-mode-only, so make the focus-gain
reveal match: FocusableWrapper, FocusableChipStateMixin, and
FocusableTileStateMixin now scroll into view only during keyboard/D-pad
sessions. The gate reads the tracker's live state (new
InputModeTracker.currentMode) because the inherited provider is one
frame stale on the first navigation key of a session. The touch OSK
search submit keeps its jump-to-results via an explicit reveal, matching
the existing pointer-mode convention of pairing requestFocus with an
explicit scroll.

When mpv bitstreams (audio-spdif), audio-params describe the IEC 61937
carrier - 192 kHz "stereo" for E-AC-3 - so the performance overlay told
users their 5.1 track was playing as 2ch stereo. Every recent "EAC3
downgraded to PCM" report in #1300 reads back this string while the
receiver route stays healthy.
Show the source track's channel layout and sample rate instead, plus an
explicit Passthrough row naming the bitstreamed codec, on both the
mpv-channel and Android mpv-fallback stats paths.
The custom sidebar read as an ad-hoc widget: collapsed rows were the
expanded layout clipped to the strip, the libraries tree used a
staircase of indents and mixed row heights, and hover expansion pushed
the whole content area sideways.
Rebuild the rail on M3 Expressive geometry: collapsed destinations are
icon-only 56x32 pills centered in an 80px strip (48px icon-only on TV),
expanded rows are fixed-height destinations with a full-width stadium
indicator, and the two layouts crossfade/lerp during the width morph
instead of clipping. The libraries section is flattened into full-width
destination rows under a chevron header at standard destination
metrics, hover/touch expansion overlays content as a rounded, shadowed
panel over a dimmed scrim instead of pushing it, and rail width, item
morphs, content translate, and bleed all share one duration/curve.
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.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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).
PlayQueue was a freezed union whose Plex variant was never constructed (server queues flow through PlayQueueResponse), whose pattern getters had zero call sites, and whose backendId was written but never read — it is now a plain four-field LocalPlayQueue. The MediaItem compatibility factory re-listed the entire ~65-field union surface twice while every caller passes at most 22 fields; it now declares exactly that union. fetchLibraryContent had zero production callers (the UI pages through fetchLibraryPagedContent), so the interface method and both implementations are gone, with Jellyfin's drain folded into its paged entry point.
One server with overlapping libraries (movies in both an HD and a 4K
library, shows duplicated per language) returns search results that
cannot be told apart, forcing users to open each copy to find the
right one (#1970).
Each search row now carries a source line under the summary: backend
icon, server name, and library name, shown whenever the owning server
has more than one library. Plex rows name their section inline, with
sectionKey-only rows back-filled from the loaded libraries; Jellyfin
and Emby send no library field on search hits, so search always runs
the per-library scoped fan-out that previously only served
hidden-library exclusion and stamps every hit with its library. The
Jellyfin detail lookup adds a best-effort /Items/{id}/Ancestors stamp
so full metadata stays attributed, row refreshes merge instead of
dropping the stamp, and the mapper no longer misreads SeriesStudio or
ParentId as library identity.
Episode rows trade one summary line for the source line so the
wide-thumb row keeps its height, and the badge paints slightly below
the line-box center to sit on the text's optical middle.

Hovering the back button in bottom sheet headers drew the circular
highlight 12px right of the arrow: the 48px hit target was positioned
from the stack's padded origin while the glyph sits flush at the
leading content edge. Move the horizontal padding onto the header row
and position the target so the InkResponse box centers on the glyph.
Media buttons on HID remotes (USB/Bluetooth keyboards, common on Android
TV) are delivered as key events to the focused window instead of the
MediaSession, so they only worked while the app was backgrounded. A
global handler now routes play/pause, next/previous, stop, and
fast-forward/rewind to the live music session anywhere in the app and
consumes the key burst, so a press can neither leak to Android's
fallback MediaSession dispatch nor start a focused library item. Same
lifecycle as the OS media session; video playback never coexists with it
because claiming video disposes the music session first.
close#1948
The sync delay slider spanned ±60s with 100ms steps, making fine
adjustment between e.g. 100ms and 200ms impractical on touch and mouse.
The slider now covers ±10s at 50ms per step (taps and D-pad included),
while the +/- step buttons still reach the ±60s absolute limit via
long-press, so existing large saved offsets keep working and display
their true value.
close#1907
4443b761 staged the system-back path (strip/fullscreen/hide/exit), so on
Android a back with the controls visible hid them instead of closing the
player. The PlayerNavigationCoordinator now takes an exitPlayerBeforeChrome
policy; the player enables it on mobile, restoring immediate exit on Back
while TV/desktop keep the staged chrome handling.
Collapsing Libraries in the sidebar only lasted until the app closed. The
next launch always came back expanded, which buries the rest of the nav
menu for anyone running a lot of libraries.
The expansion flag was plain widget state on SideNavigationRailState. It
survived tab navigation only because MainScreen pins the rail with a
GlobalKey, and died on relaunch, profile switch or a layout change. It now
lives in the librariesSectionExpanded preference, so the rail reads and
writes the persisted value and follows a settings reset or import too.
close#1896
On TV, a movie carrying a full set of attributed scores pushed the resolution and audio labels past the right edge of the detail metadata line, which silently clipped them.
The line now sheds its least useful parts when it overflows -- surplus rating badges first, then the whole ratings slot, then quality labels -- instead of hard-clipping the tail. It also leads with the year instead of the redundant "Movie"/"TV Show" label, matching the desktop hero chip order, and the Discover spotlight line gets the same fitting. Branded badge icons are pinned to their SVG viewBox aspect so the fit is measured exactly.
close#1893
After activating Skip Intro with the remote, the next Select only raised
the player controls and pausing took a second press. The skip button
autofocuses on TV, and every path that hides it dropped focus out of the
controls subtree - the screen node reclaimed the remote and its self-heal
consumed the next key to raise the chrome instead of toggling playback.
Hand the remote back to the player surface whenever the skip button
disappears while focused: after a skip seek, when the playhead leaves the
marker window, and when the auto-dismiss timer hides the button. The
credits-at-end path is exempt because the play-next flow requests its own
focus.
close#1890
A Portuguese user reported "Skip Intro" rendering in English on Android TV.
The locale files were not the problem - all 22 were structurally complete.
skip_marker_button.dart simply never imported strings.g.dart and assigned
'Skip Intro' / 'Skip Credits' / 'Next Episode' as plain literals. An audit of
lib/ found ~120 more sites in the same state, in four shapes that need
different fixes:
A literal in a file that never imported the i18n layer is the easy one -
skip_marker_button, performance_stats, track_label_builder and codec_utils all
render text with no `t` in the file at all. TrackLabelBuilder._compose now takes
a fallbackLabel builder instead of an English fallbackPrefix, so the caller
supplies t.audioTracks.track / t.videoControls.subtitleTrack and every unnamed
audio and subtitle row in the track menus is localized.
English reaching the user through an exception message is the widest one, and
it needs care: MediaServerException.message feeds both toString() - logs and
Sentry grouping - and verbatim UI display. Localizing it in place would make
bug-report logs follow the user's locale and split one Sentry issue into 22.
The MediaServer and Seerr families instead gain a nullable `display` alongside
the English `message`, and the six screens that print these errors read
`display ?? message`. PlaybackException keeps the opposite rule, because it
already carries a PlaybackFailureReason for logic and classifyPlaybackFailure
already builds it from t.messages: its stragglers are localized at the throw
site. That also removes the literal "Exception: " prefix Live TV users saw on
a tune failure, since PlaybackException.toString() returns the bare message.
Localized parts hand-concatenated with bare English are the shape no search for
Text('...') can find: '${t.common.pause} auto-scroll' on the home carousel,
'${day} at ${time}' on the Live TV schedule row, and an actor-screen count that
hand-rolled its plural as `n == 1 ? 'title' : 'titles'` - wrong for ru and pl
regardless of translation, now a real Slang plural.
Finally a literal assigned to provider state that a widget renders later:
DownloadProgress.errorMessage, and the four background_downloader notification
bodies, which sit inside a plugin config call where no widget-shaped search
reaches them.
Two things surfaced while converting. track_chapter_controls compared a track
label against 'Audio Track N' to swap in a localized version; once the builder
localized its own fallback that branch became unreachable, so it and the
orphaned _joinTrackLabel are gone. And discovery_view's PeerError fallback arm
looks like a leak but is not - its producers already localize, and a test says
so - so it stays as it is.
All 21 non-base locales are translated, including the 21 keys left empty by
earlier commits that were falling back to English. No locale has an empty value.
scripts/check_hardcoded_strings.py guards the three shapes a structural check
can see, and runs in ci_checks.sh after translation hygiene. Its first draft
passed its own tests while missing this very bug, because 'Skip Intro' is bound
to a local rather than handed to Text(); the name-bound rule that closes that
gap is restricted to phrase-shaped literals, or it cannot tell copy from the
identifiers this codebase binds constantly ('cast_row', 'auto', 'liveTv'). It
cannot see English inside a throw or assigned to a provider field - neither is
distinguishable from a log message without dataflow analysis - and the docstring
says so. label: and actionLabel: are deliberately unscanned: here they name a
diagnostic operation, and a check that is chronically red is a check that gets
switched off.
One commit rather than one per area: the keys, the 22 locale files and the
generated output are a single unit, and any partial split fails the repo's own
unused-key scan on the way through.
close#1856
Video on Linux went through a Flutter texture: 8-bit sRGB, which cannot carry
HDR at all, and which forced a whole-window Flutter recomposite for every video
frame. This moves it onto a wl_subsurface stacked below the Flutter surface, with
mpv rendering into an EGL window surface on it through the libmpv render API. The
subsurface is desynchronized, so video and UI now present independently.
With the plane in place HDR follows: the surface is described to the compositor
through wp_color_manager_v1 as the source's own curve and gamut - PQ or HLG,
BT.2020 - carrying whatever HDR10 static metadata the stream actually declares.
The description and the buffer it describes land on the same commit, staged and
validated before mpv is switched, so a PQ frame is never presented labelled sRGB.
A five-second watchdog bounds the one wait a compositor could otherwise leave
hanging. A session that cannot host the plane - X11, or a compositor without
wl_subcompositor - fails initialize with VIDEO_PLANE_UNSUPPORTED naming the
reason: the texture path is gone, and refusing by name beats degrading to
something the user cannot see. An SDR output, a missing capability or an 8-bit
config keep the plane and simply leave it undescribed.
The output's colour state is trusted only when it has been earned. Every landed
property step records itself as it lands; a reset or sequence that cannot
finish downgrades its result to unknown and marks the applied-output cache
untrusted until a clean apply earns it back. A plane whose output state cannot
be named is quarantined - hidden, its description withdrawn - and the
quarantine is recorded state: an unrelated visibility change cannot put a
mislabelled plane back on screen, and only a commit that resolves to a nameable
outcome lifts it. A rect collapsing to zero detaches the buffer exactly as
hiding does, a refused setVideoRect drops the Dart-side sent-rect cache so the
next layout pass retries for free, and a refused tone-mapping pick tells the
user instead of dying in a log.
NVIDIA's Wayland EGL (through at least 610.xx) offers no 10-bit unorm window
configs, so the plane takes half-float as the tier between 10-bit unorm and
8-bit, declares the whole surface opaque so the compositor never reads the
alpha those configs carry, and states GL_RGBA16F rather than a 10-bit lie.
Whether the output is in HDR is read from luminance headroom above its own
reference white rather than from the preferred transfer function, which current
KWin no longer answers PQ for; the margin is half a stop, because KWin reports
an undimmed maximum over a software-dimmed SDR white. Validated on an RTX 4090
(driver 610.57.04) under KWin 6.7.4 with locked-exposure photographs.
Who tone-maps is a user choice. The default is the compositor: photographed on a
400-nit HDR output against a PQ chart it keeps 400 -> 1000 nits monotonic and
separated where the player leg flattens them, because the player path drives
mpv's legacy vo_gpu, whose own standalone output scores the same. The gap is the
renderer, not the wiring.
The decision itself - what the source carries, what the output supports, what to
tell mpv and what to tell the compositor - lives in hdr_metadata.h, free of
Wayland and GTK so its luminance validation can be tested without a display
server. Sending an incoherent luminance set is a protocol error that disconnects
the client, so the rules are worth a unit test.
The deb, rpm and pacman packages now declare wayland-client, wayland-egl and EGL:
the plane links them directly and bundle-libs.sh deliberately never bundles them,
since they are coupled to the running compositor and GPU driver.
lib/dev/harness_main.dart is a second entrypoint for measuring this on hardware -
it drives one clip with scripted mpv properties and reports the colour state mpv
actually settled on. Nothing imports it, so it is tree-shaken out of the app.
Verified on a Steam Deck against an external 400-nit HDR display: the compositor
reports PQ / BT.2020, the connector carries HDR_OUTPUT_METADATA, and against mpv
vo=gpu-next on the same frame the shipped build sits 4.90 counts away overall -
closer to the reference HDR player than to its own SDR fallback.
Every tracker auth dialog (Trakt/Simkl/MDBList device-code and MAL/AniList
OAuth proxy) now shares the same PendingAuthDialog affordances: a QR code for
the sign-in URL, a large copyable URL with the scheme stripped, the browser
launch button (hidden on Apple TV, which has no browser), and the polling
spinner. On wide viewports (TV logical 960x540, desktop, phone landscape) the
QR pane sits beside the instructions so the dialog no longer clips on tvOS,
and the content is scrollable as an overflow safety net. Device activation
codes scale down instead of wrapping.
Watchlist membership was only reachable from Explore cards and the
detail screen's action row, which drops the bookmark first on narrow
screens with no fallback in the overflow menu. Add an entry to
MediaContextMenu for movies and shows whenever a connected catalog
source can hold the item, covering card long-press everywhere and the
detail screen's overflow.
External-id resolution is session-cached per item on
CatalogSourcesProvider and shared with the detail screen. A cold cache
labels the entry "Add to Watchlist" and always adds (idempotent), so a
press can never turn into a surprise removal; "Remove" is offered once
cached membership proves it. Several capable sources open the same
per-source chooser the detail screen uses.
close#1822
The Explore tab appears for every Plex-backed profile because the Plex
Discover catalog source connects implicitly, with no way to opt out
short of a Jellyfin-only profile. Add a Show Explore Tab switch to
Appearance > Navigation that hides the tab in the bottom navigation and
side rail. UI-only: catalog sources stay connected so watchlist
surfaces keep working while the tab is hidden.
close#1844
Android TV's docked keyboard handles multiline editors natively, so
`automatic` no longer diverts them to the Flutter overlay there. Only
Apple TV keeps the overlay for multiline input — its modal fullscreen
system keyboard cannot edit multiline text. Surfaces that want the
overlay for editing ergonomics (mpv config, connection editor, dialog
text areas) already pin flutterOverlay explicitly.
Android TV returns to the platform keyboard for single-line fields; the
Flutter overlay stays for multiline and explicit call sites. The bugs
that forced the overlay (#1051, #1079) were an engine show/bind ordering
race, now repaired at the app level:
- MainActivity retries a soft-input show the engine dropped while the
FlutterView was not yet served (flutter/flutter#177360), rebinds the
IME key session once at first show, and consumes leaked D-pad keys
while the keyboard is visible (bounded restartInput budget) so focus
cannot wander behind a stuck keyboard.
- The platform text-input hint is activation-based, so gamepad pause and
the pre-IME D-pad intercept track a live session instead of mere field
focus.
- While a session is live with the keyboard away, Back closes it and is
consumed once, Select re-raises the keyboard, and arrows keep
caret-aware edge-escape navigation instead of dead-ending.
Two regressions since 2.9.1 broke subtitles on transcoded playback. Since
a1b6a8971 sidecars load with the media behind a 10s open guard, so a
subtitle URL the server is slow to serve — Jellyfin extracting an
embedded stream while its transcoder spins up — tripped the guard: stop,
reopen without subtitles, "Selected subtitles could not be loaded"
snackbar, and an emptied subtitle menu. Since 2b3853a88 every embedded
Plex subtitle was handed to the player as a sidecar whose URL is the
original container, so a transcode also range-read and demuxed the
source over HTTP — for a 40 GB remux, purely to find a subtitle track —
which is also why PGS never appeared: the client was handed a container
to demux rather than a rendition to play.
Delivery is the server's job again, backported from the AVPlayer branch
(42ba01440, the subtitle subset of 6852ac274, and a3da81e83) and adapted
to main's mpv backend:
Plex burns every embedded track (subtitles=burn); only a real external
file with a /library/streams key stays a client-fetched sidecar. A burn
is a re-encode, so directPlay is withdrawn — a real PMS answers HTTP 400
to directPlay=1 with burn — and the burn is aimed by selecting the
stream on the part first via the selectStreams PUT, because the decision
endpoint ignores subtitleStreamID alongside subtitles=burn. An
unaimable or undeliverable burn (dvb_teletext) refuses the transcode and
falls back to warned direct play rather than welding the wrong language
in or silently dropping the caption. Main's per-preset
directPlay/directStream pinning is kept; verified against a live PMS
that burn works under directStream=0.
Jellyfin never offers image formats as External, so bitmaps fall through
to Encode and are burned; text External is withheld per request when the
effective selection — including the server's DefaultSubtitleStreamIndex —
is embedded, and offered when it is a real file, so a file is delivered
as a file and never fetched twice. The burned row is excluded from the
sidecars; remaining text rows stay extractable, which is how a secondary
track still renders over a transcode. Sidecar URLs now use the format
extension the endpoint expects instead of the reported codec name.
The controls and selection layers learn what burning means: burn
eligibility is the codec's property, so burned rows stay selectable in
the menu; any change away from a burned selection renegotiates with the
server instead of pretending a local switch worked; the visibility
shortcut explains itself instead of doing nothing; and the track manager
is told when the primary is server-rendered so it stops waiting out a
thirty-second deadline for a native track that is already pixels.
Verified: analyzer parity, clean_translations --check --strict, full
flutter test (5749), and decision-level runs against live Plex and
Jellyfin servers — text and PGS burn decisions, the directPlay=1+burn
400, External file delivery, an unchanged no-burn baseline, and a real
burn session serving its playlist. The pre-commit aggregate was bypassed
for pre-existing main-state findings outside this diff: 21 format-drifted
files and three unused test seams in lib/main.dart.

Refs #1815, #1622.
The clock renders through the existing formatClockTime helper driven by
MediaQuery.alwaysUse24HourFormatOf, so it follows the OS 12/24-hour
setting instead of introducing an app preference. It re-arms a one-shot
timer onto each wall-clock minute boundary rather than polling, and
resyncs on resume because a suspended process runs no timers.
The player header is shared by the mobile and desktop/TV controls, so one
insertion point covers every form factor: the player is fullscreen
everywhere, so it never has an OS clock to defer to. Home is the
exception and only gets one on TV, where a leanback app hides the system
clock; a phone status bar and a desktop menu bar already show the time.
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.
Pressing Enter over the player put the whole app into keyboard mode and
dropped focus onto Play/Pause, even with Video Player Navigation off. Two
independent paths did it. InputModeTracker promoted on any key satisfying
isNavigationKey, a set that unioned activation, dismissal and the menu key
with the arrows and consulted no setting at all; separately the surface's
Select handler always asked the chrome for focus. Escape had the same effect,
which on desktop reads as the mouse cursor vanishing mid-playback.
Both now ask one predicate. eventRequestsFocusNavigation decides whether the
app switches to keyboard mode and whether a key may hand focus to the chrome,
so the two cannot disagree and focus can never land on a control while focus
chrome is still suppressed. Activation and dismissal act on what already has
focus, so they answer no; Tab, the menu key, a remote's OK or BACK, and an
arrow that will really traverse answer yes. The one input the predicate cannot
read off the event, whether the focused feature owns arrow keys, rides on the
node as DirectionalShortcutFocusNode instead of on a subtree, so every sheet,
prompt and OSD button stays an ordinary traversal target with nothing to
re-enable.
playerDirectionalNavigationEnabled and videoPlayerNavigationPreference replace
five hand-copied pref-or-isTV expressions and a screen-level cache that
disagreed with the live getter after a toggle. Services whose input is
synthesized past HardwareKeyboard announce themselves through
InputModeTracker.reportNonPointerInput rather than two static callbacks and
three copies of a highlight-strategy write. That registration is now
identity-guarded: the bootstrap-to-app tree swap disposed the outgoing tracker
after the incoming one initialised and cleared both callbacks, so gamepad and
companion remote input had stopped switching to keyboard mode entirely.
Falling out of the same rule: a companion heartbeat no longer flips an idle
desktop host into keyboard mode, analog-stick drift promotes only past the
deadzone that actually navigates, Enter keeps toggling playback once the
chrome is up, Tab both reaches and traverses the OSD, and the player surface
claims the remote from mount rather than only when the chrome starts hidden,
so the first key on a desktop route is a playback shortcut instead of the
screen node's chrome-raising self-heal.
isNavigationKey becomes isReservedControlKey, since its real meaning is a
shell key rather than a text character and the old name is what invited the
conflation. The unreachable PlayerChromeFocusTarget.timeline goes with it.
A coalesced key-repeat skip pins its target so a slow backend cannot make
the next press rebase off a position the seek has not reached yet. Nothing
retired that pin when something else moved the playhead, so for the ten
seconds it survived, a skip taken after a timeline tap, a chapter jump, an
OS media control or a peer sync resumed from the superseded target and threw
the user back across their own jump.
Publish every playhead movement on the player and retire the pin whenever
the announced destination is not the accumulator's own commit. Overlapping
seeks and backend-chosen relocations arbitrate by which operation the
backend accepted, so a request that was merely asked for cannot speak for
where the playhead ended up.

The check that keeps Audio Passthrough out of the in-player settings
sheet dragged the first Scrollable ten times and then asserted the
label was absent. That scrolling never moved: at the pumped 900x700
viewport the sheet fits its own content, so maxScrollExtent is 0 and
the offset stays there through every drag. The assertion passed
identically with no drags at all.
It caught a reintroduced toggle only because the whole list happens to
sit in the element tree at rest. Grow the sheet, shrink the viewport or
give it a lazy delegate and findsNothing starts passing because the
label is offscreen rather than gone, with nothing in the test to say
so.
Land on the audio block that used to hold the toggle first, then
assert the absence. scrollUntilVisible throws when that block is
missing entirely, so the guard fails loudly instead of quietly
weakening.
Tunneled playback on an AFTMM judders continuously through 23.976p direct play.
The #1802 reporter isolated it: turning off Tunneled Playback with every other
setting unchanged makes it smooth, and their log shows tunneling active for the
whole session with E-AC3 bitstreamed and the decoded-PCM guard never firing.
Audio Passthrough looked like the trigger only because it is the one user-facing
switch that decides it. Passthrough off, or Downmix to Stereo on, both force the
Dolby track to decode to PCM, which trips the #1458 guard and takes tunneling
down with it. Passthrough on with downmix off is the only combination that keeps
a bitstreamed track, so it is the only one that stays tunneled.
Withdraw tunneling on that model for content at or below 30fps. The cut-off
keeps 4K50/60 tunneled, which is the workload Amazon documents the feature for.
The mechanism stays unconfirmed: tunneling fires no VideoFrameMetadataListener
and stops media3 counting frames in the codec, so nothing app-side can measure
the cadence. Only the trigger is established, and the quirk is scoped to it.
That needs a frame rate the app did not have. Neither MatroskaExtractor nor
Mp4Extractor populates Format.frameRate, and a tunneled session renders no
frames back for the native detector, so the server's rate now rides on the open
call. It is sent only for direct play, matching _primeDisplayCriteria: a
transcode's metadata describes the source, not what the server is about to send.
Also move Audio Passthrough out of the in-player settings sheet. It configures
the audio output route rather than the current playback, and applying it
mid-stream bounces the audio renderer and re-decides tunneling. Settings > Video
Playback already owns it, next to Tunneled Playback, which is applied the same
way. That description now mentions stutter, not only black HDR video, so the
workaround is findable on hardware this quirk does not cover.
The mpv backend failing to start the same 4K file is a separate defect and is
not addressed here; its uploaded log is no longer retrievable.
"Delete from server" read identically for an episode, a season and a
whole show: same menu label, same dialog title, same red button, and a
body that named nothing. The menu header did not disambiguate either,
because MediaItem.displayTitle collapses an episode to its show name.
A reporter deleted a whole series from the detail hero's ⋮ believing it
acted on the episode he had highlighted, and the confirmation gave him
nothing to catch it with. Every one of those strings now names the kind,
and the body names the exact item — show, season and episode number, and
episode title.
Deleting a single item also destroyed files the confirmation never
mentioned: a Plex multi-episode file (S01E01-E03.mkv) takes its other
episodes with it, and a split item takes every part. The dialog now
reports that up front and, on success, emits deletion events for the
siblings the server destroyed so their rows do not linger.
The scope behind that warning is only asserted when it is established.
MediaItem.allPartFiles drops parts with no path, so a non-empty set
proves nothing about the ones it filtered out; a version is trusted only
when every part reports a file. A browse row that omits paths is missing
evidence rather than proof of a distinct file, so both the target and
each candidate sibling fall back to the detail endpoint before any
conclusion — otherwise a thin row, including the file-less part
PlexMappers fabricates for an empty payload, would look like a server
that withholds paths. When the answer cannot be established the dialog
says so in an error-tinted block and its button reads "Delete anyway",
separating a transient probe failure from a server that never sends
paths. It deliberately does not refuse: Plex withholds paths from
restricted users the server itself authorizes to delete, so failing
closed would take the feature away from them permanently.
Probing a season stays bounded in both directions. Siblings resolve one
at a time, so a season of thin rows cannot fan out a detail request per
episode, and expiry cancels the walk rather than merely abandoning it —
`Future.timeout` completes the future the caller awaits but leaves the
work behind it running, which would resume on the next sibling once the
outstanding request answered. A cooperative flag is checked before each
lookup, so at most the one already in flight outlives the deadline; the
neutral client exposes no abort handle for item lookups, so that one
cannot be recalled.
The spinner covering the probe was only barrierDismissible, which does
not stop system back. Back dismissed it and the cleanup pop then closed
the screen underneath, dropping the user out of the detail page
mid-flow. It now traps back, matching the non-dismissible contract its
own doc claims, which also repairs the log uploader and the file-info
sheet.
Coverage splits by what each layer owns. The dialog, its copy and the
DELETE wiring are backend-neutral and stay in the menu widget tests.
Plex — the backend multi-episode files actually come from — gets the
resolver over a real PlexClient and a mocked transport: a row with no
media at all, scope recovered from /library/metadata/{id}, siblings and
paths from /children, a Part that names no file, a sibling whose path
never resolves, the request count a sixty-episode thin season may cost,
and the rating key the DELETE carries. Those are plain async tests
because the Plex metadata cache is a real database whose I/O the widget
tester's fake clock never drives. Deadline behaviour needs the opposite,
so it is pinned separately under fakeAsync against a gated fake client,
with no wall-clock waiting anywhere.

Returning to the desktop window with the chrome still up left arrow keys
navigating the OSD instead of seeking: the first press seeked and silently
moved focus onto Play/Pause, and every press after that walked the buttons.
A window blur drops Flutter's primary focus to the root scope, so the player
screen's reclaim parks it on its own node. The only handoff back down to the
controls was the chrome visible->hidden transition, so with the OSD up nothing
reclaimed it -- hence the reported workarounds of letting the controls hide, or
moving the pointer off the player and back. Pointer exit normally hides the
chrome and masks this, which is why it only shows when the pointer stays over
the player while another window takes focus.
Hand the surface back on window re-activation, next to the existing hide-path
claim, and rename the helper since it is no longer hidden-chrome specific. The
claim runs synchronously because a platform callback is not guaranteed to be
followed by a frame; the screen's reclaim re-tests hasFocus when it runs, so the
two no longer compete.
Also gate the screen's self-heal so a directional key no longer pulls focus into
the OSD when "Video Player Navigation" is off -- Tab and select keep their path
in, which the ungated return value would otherwise consume with nowhere to go.
Physical Escape inside the player resolved to exitFullscreenIfActive on
Windows and Linux whenever HTPC-style player navigation was off, so it dropped
the window out of fullscreen regardless of who put it there. For anyone running
with "start in fullscreen" (or who had toggled fullscreen from the browse UI),
backing out of a movie left the app windowed, with "exit fullscreen on player
close" switched off.
Track fullscreen ownership instead: FullscreenStateManager now exposes a scope
that the player opens in initState and closes in dispose, and setFullscreen —
the single funnel every desktop platform reports through (window_manager on
Linux, the Win32 runner callback on Windows, NSWindowDelegate on macOS) —
records whether the fullscreen currently active was entered inside that scope.
Escape only exits fullscreen the player itself entered; otherwise it is plain
Back. The scope is depth-counted so the next-episode swap, where the incoming
screen's initState runs before the outgoing screen's dispose, carries ownership
across rather than resetting it.
Nothing changes for a user who fullscreens from inside the player: Escape still
exits fullscreen first, then acts as Back. The fullscreen toggle button and its
shortcut are untouched, as is exitFullscreenOnPlayerClose.
Fixes#1624.
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.
The three vertical faders read as an equalizer in a music context and
are the vertical twin of the video player's settings icon. Use
wand_stars, which names what the action produces and collides with no
neighbouring affordance in the action bar or the music context menu.
close#1629
The context menu only offered File Info for movies and episodes, so a
track's path, container, and audio stream detail were unreachable even
though both backends already answer getFileInfo for them.
Gate the entry on the new MediaKind.hasFileInfo instead of a literal
kind list: movies, episodes, tracks, and clips are leaf items with real
files, while shows, seasons, artists, albums, collections, playlists,
and folders carry no Media/MediaSources and would only ever produce the
"not available" snackbar.
Also fix the Plex stream classifier, which mapped streamType 4 to an
embedded image although PlexStreamType.lyrics is 4. Only music tracks
carry that type, so a track's lyric stream rendered under "Embedded
Images" with the video field block. Type 5 was invented outright and is
now unknown.
close#1747
Plezy is edge-to-edge on Android whether it asks to be or not: targetSdk is
36, Android 15 enforces edge-to-edge for apps targeting 35+, and Android 16
disables the windowOptOutEdgeToEdgeEnforcement escape hatch. The only
SystemUiMode.edgeToEdge call in the app fires on video-player exit, so on
API 35+ the window is edge-to-edge from the first frame and
MediaQuery.padding.bottom is a real ~48dp overlap under 3-button navigation.
MainScreen's phone layout hides that. It supplies a bottomNavigationBar and
never sets extendBody, so Flutter's Scaffold strips padding.bottom from the
body MediaQuery and every tab is already safe. Routes pushed on the profile
navigator are full-screen siblings of MainScreen with no bottom bar, so they
receive the untouched inset and nothing consumes it - the last settings card
and the final log lines render under the back, home, and recents buttons.
Three shared hosts own most of those routes, so the inset is consumed there:
FocusedScrollScaffold (25 screens, counting the SettingsPage wrapper) and
FocusableDetailScreenMixin.buildDetailScaffold (4) now append a trailing
SliverSystemBottomInset, and the four screens that build their own Scaffold
around a CustomScrollView append it directly.
The new widget codifies the convention this repository had already written
down but open-coded - insets baked into the scroll content rather than a
SafeArea around the scroll view - so content still paints under the bar while
the scroll extent grows enough to bring the last row above it. It reads
padding from its own context and collapses to zero height wherever the inset
is already zero: desktop, Android TV, tvOS via _AppleTvScale, and inside
MainScreen's tab bodies. No platform branching, and it stacks additively with
the music detail screens' existing mini-player spacers, which is correct
because the mini-player itself floats above the navigation bar on a pushed
route.
Scroll views that are not sliver lists take the inset in their own padding:
the companion remote's ListView, the auth screen's scroll container, and the
two SliverFillRemaining sign-in forms, whose children size themselves from
the extent remaining before them and so cannot be helped by a trailing
sliver. The logs empty state is left alone for the same reason inverted - it
already fills the viewport, and a trailing inset would only add scroll slack.
Verified on a Pixel 7 running Android 16 (API 36) with 3-button navigation:
Settings, Logs, and Video Playback all end clear of the bar.
close#1766
A touch viewer had to raise the chrome to pause, which dims the picture and
covers the subtitle line they were trying to finish reading. A two-finger tap
now toggles playback with the chrome left down, so the frame that pauses is the
frame that was on screen. It fires the moment the chord resolves, in every
player state.
The two-finger double tap no longer resets the video zoom. Keeping it would mean
holding this toggle back for the double-tap window before acting, and pausing
late is pausing on the wrong frame. Zoom reset stays in the video settings sheet,
its presets and the keyboard shortcut, and pinching back to 100% now snaps
exactly within three percent so touch has a one-gesture path too.
Both chord actions share _mobileTouchGesturesAllowed, so the chord is inert
under screen lock, in PiP and while the content strip is open; the zoom reset
previously fired straight through a locked screen.
close#1505
A television raised the whole OSD and timebar on every playback start. The
chrome controller is born visible, and its auto-hide clock cannot arm until the
first frame lands, so the controls did not merely appear early: they appeared
exactly when the picture did, and then sat over the opening five seconds of
every movie and episode. The timeline is gated behind the first frame, so the
bar materialised on top of the video rather than over the loading spinner,
which is what makes it read as a pop-up rather than as chrome that was already
there.
The route now opens with no chrome on TV. Nothing is lost: the loading spinner
and buffering overlay are their own overlays, the screen focus node owns back,
and the first D-pad press raises the controls the way it already does after
every auto-hide. Pointer and touch platforms keep the chrome, where the
viewer's hand is on the surface and the title and back affordance belong over
the spinner.
Initial presentation now follows initial visibility. They were separate:
seeding only visibility would leave the route claiming its chrome was still
presented, so PlayerNavigationCoordinator would read back as "hide the chrome",
hide() would no-op against chrome that was never up, and the press would be
swallowed instead of leaving the player.
Controls that mount with the chrome already down now claim focus themselves.
Focus normally reaches them through the hide transition, and their own
autofocus cannot win it back because the screen node took it during the loading
phase. Left alone, the screen node kept primary focus and its self-heal raised
the entire OSD on the first D-pad press, which put the chrome straight back
over the picture and bypassed the transient seek and transport indicators.
Both player spinners now carry a label. They were bare progress indicators, so
a screen reader announced nothing at all while the picture was coming up, and
the TV Maestro flows had no way left to tell a loading player from a playing
one once the Pause button stopped appearing on its own.
The two TV flows are repaired to match. They waited on that button, and now
wait for the labelled spinner to clear, which cannot happen before the media is
opened. 05 additionally reaches Search by D-pad rather than a percentage
coordinate, because a tap flips InputModeTracker to pointer mode and collapses
the rail it is aiming at, and it gates on the play-next prompt's own Cancel
action: "Next Episode" is also the credits skip button, so the old assertion
could pass without the prompt ever opening.
close#1765
Bare Backspace and Home are player navigation keys, but they are also
caret editing keys. The player screen's Focus wraps its OverlaySheetHost,
so it saw them before the subtitle-search field could act: the press was
consumed on key-down, DefaultTextEditingShortcuts never turned it into a
deletion, and the back pipeline hid the chrome and then left the player.
A focused text editor now takes both keys back, but only for physical
keyboard presses — a synthesized dpad/gamepad press has no caret, and
browserHome has no editing role at all.
The screen also resolved its overlay-sheet controller from the State's
own context, which sits above the host it was querying, so the lookup
always returned null and Back skipped the sheet stage entirely. Resolve
it from a context below the host instead, matching NowPlayingScreen.
close#1741
Jellyfin never consults IsAdministrator when authorizing a library
delete: BaseItem.IsAuthorizedToDelete looks at EnableContentDeletion and
the per-library grant, and only the first user a server creates gets the
former for free. Gating the "Delete from server" entry on the admin bit
therefore offered a destructive action that answers 401 to later
administrators, and hid it from plain users who do hold the grant.
Ask the server per item instead, through the new
MediaDeletionPermissionClient capability: BaseItemDto.CanDelete already
folds the global grant, the per-library grant, and item state such as
missing files or an in-progress recording. The probe runs when a menu
opens on a deletable kind, costs ~0.5 KB, carries a whole-request
deadline because the client's own budget covers connect and receive
separately, and fails closed on anything unknown. Plex keeps its
account-level owner/admin gate; it has no per-item permission on the
wire.
close#1749
A reporter on #1732 ran three successive builds against a preference store of
10336 bytes, every one of them zero, and reported each as "still failing". The
gate classified it correctly every time and the consented repair would have
cleared it in-process, but nothing on the failure screen said so: Retry was
first, styled `FilledButton`, and autofocused, while `Repair storage` sat beside
it as a tonal afterthought. Retry re-reads the same document, so for a
corrupt-store failure it is an action that cannot succeed however many times it
is pressed — and it was the one the screen recommended.
Repair now takes the primary styling, the focus node and first position whenever
it is offered, and the body text says plainly that retrying will not help.
Retry keeps its place for every other failure, where a locked database or a
denied directory really can change between attempts.
The consent dialog was also promising an outcome it could not always deliver.
Servers and profiles survive a repair only because their tokens are ciphertext
in the database and the key that decrypts them lives in the store, so a store
the key cannot be read out of signs the user out of everything — exactly the
all-zero case. `PrefsRecovery.previewSalvage` reads the damaged file without
touching it, and the dialog now names the real cost from that. The retained copy is
labelled as holding credentials unless the bytes prove otherwise: what the
salvage recovered says nothing about what the file still contains, because a
store truncated mid-value keeps most of a vault key in plaintext while the
salvage pattern — which needs the value's closing quote — matches nothing at
all. Only an all-zero file drops the warning, so the one case that cries wolf
is the one that provably holds no secret.
`describe()` finally carries whether a repair was on offer. That line is the
difference between a report a maintainer can act on and two days of guessing
whether the button was even on screen.
close#1732
Plezy rendered exactly one score per item. MediaRatingBadge._ratingDataFor
took `rating` and fell back to `audienceRating` only when it was null, so a
Plex movie carrying four attributed scores surfaced one, and which one was
whatever the server happened to put in the scalar slot. #1755 asked for a
setting to choose the source; showing all of them answers it without one.
The data was already on the wire and being thrown away. `/library/metadata/
{id}` returns a `Rating[]` child array — IMDb, both Rotten Tomatoes panels,
TMDB — with no extra query parameter, but PlexMetadataDto declared no field
for it, so json_serializable dropped the key. The identical parse already
existed in plex_catalog_source for the Explore tab and had simply never been
wired to library items.
Model the scores as a list rather than widening the scalar pair. The neutral
MediaItem gains `ratings`; PlexMediaItem loses audienceRating, ratingImage
and audienceRatingImage, which the list subsumes — Plex sends those images
on listings too, so the same field covers both response shapes and no caller
narrows to a backend type to read a score any more. CatalogRatingSource is
promoted to lib/media as MediaRatingSource instead of growing a second
near-identical type beside it, and plex_catalog_source's _ratingsFor becomes
the shared plexRatingSources so one implementation serves both paths. There
is no persistence to migrate: MediaItem.toJson has no production caller, the
offline path re-parses raw Plex JSON through the same mapper, and Plex's
audienceRating sort is server-supplied data, not a model read.
Cards and the dashboard still show fewer scores than detail screens, and
that part is a real Plex limit rather than a shortcut. Section listings send
only the scalar pair; includeRatings, includeElements=Rating,
includeFields=Rating, includeChildren and includeExtras were each probed
against a live server and none surfaced the array, while includeGuids=1
demonstrably does add Guid[] — the probe works, the parameter does not
exist. Hydrating every card would be one request per row, so listings render
whatever their own response carried, which is one or two attributed scores
rather than the single one they showed before.
Jellyfin has no per-source array at all: the server collapses whatever its
fetchers found into CommunityRating and CriticRating. CommunityRating's
provenance is unknowable from the DTO — TMDB vote_average, IMDb via OMDb or
a local NFO, last writer wins — so it stays the generic `audience` source
with no brand mark. CriticRating is the Rotten Tomatoes Tomatometer as a
0-100 percent and is divided by ten explicitly rather than folded by
magnitude, because a Tomatometer of 9 means 9% and range-sniffing would have
promoted a rotten score to fresh. Photo rows are skipped, since Jellyfin
reuses CommunityRating for the EXIF 0-5 star.
The badges share one slot on every surface. On the phone hero the scores go
in a single pill because that chip row is a height-clipped Wrap and a chip
per source would push year, certification and runtime out of the visible
band on short heroes; on the TV detail line and the dashboard spotlight the
group occupies the one metadata slot so bullet separators do not multiply.
The group announces itself as a single semantics node naming each source,
because a bare row of four percentages tells a screen reader nothing about
which score is which. rating_utils drops parseRatingImage and
isRottenTomatoes — the URI vocabulary now lives only in the Plex mapper —
and the source-key resolver and label map, previously private to the Explore
detail screen, become the shared pair both screens use. The label strings
move from explore.ratingSource to common.ratingSource accordingly, which
costs no translations because every non-English value was empty; running
clean_translations also scaffolds startup.quitPlezy and
startup.restartRequiredBody, which were already drifted.
Verified against the live server the probes came from: a detail response now
yields TMDB 83%, IMDb 8.3 and Rotten Tomatoes audience 96% through the
production mapper and badge resolver, and the listing response for the same
title yields TMDB 83% alone. Both payloads are pinned verbatim as fixtures.
Coverage adds mapper ordering, dedupe against the array's repeat of the
scalar, out-of-range rejection, the Jellyfin scale and photo guard, the
CatalogItem conversion that feeds Explore's dashboard hubs, and the three
render surfaces including the semantics announcement.
close#1755
A seed-and-restart repair writes the salvaged credentials straight to disk and
leaves this process's store closed, because the plugin still holds the bad
document in memory. repairCorruptStore says so plainly — "nothing may write a
preference before that restart … the caller keeps the app on the failure
screen precisely so nothing does" — but the caller did not. Clearing the
repairing flag re-enabled Retry, and pressing it reopened onto the stale map,
whose first write would flush it back over the seed and orphan every
ciphertext token in the database.
The repair hook returned a bare bool, which cannot express the difference
between "retry now" and "never retry in this process", so replace it with
StartupRepairResult. The restart case latches terminal state on the bootstrap,
withdraws Retry and Repair rather than grey them out — a disabled control
still invites another press — and says what to do instead, which nothing did:
repairNeedsRestart was a dialog title with no body anywhere. Desktop gets a
Quit button through the existing AppExitService seam; Copy and Upload stay
live everywhere, because a stuck user still needs the diagnostic out.
