Report the paused timeline every tick (~10s, matching official clients)
instead of every ~60s, and ping the Plex transcoder keepalive endpoint
alongside it while transcoding — PMS reaps idle transcode sessions that
timeline reports alone historically have not kept alive. Prevents the
transcode-variant of the #1520 stream death; the reporter's direct-play
case is covered by EOF classification and reconnect.
close#1520
Classify player EOF signals against the best-known duration: a mid-file
EOF means the stream died (transcode reaped or idle connection closed
during a long pause), not that the media ended — it must never mark the
item watched, prompt Play Next, or exit a movie. Recover with a bounded
in-place reload at the parked position; if the server is still refusing,
park on the old frame and rebuild the stream on user play/seek or when
the server-status monitor sees it come back online.
ffmpeg's reconnect gave up on the first HTTP-error response, so a PMS
answering 503 (startup maintenance) after an idle-pause disconnect
surfaced as a clean mid-file EOF instead of riding through the outage.
The old bool meant "attempt was current and handled", so callers could
not distinguish a real pre-open failure (old stream still loaded) from
success — the distinction the #1520 recovery needs.
close#1514
A query submitted from the companion remote now behaves like a submit
instead of focus-to-type: TvKeyboardController closes an already-open
OSK and lands focus on the input without reopening it, then the shared
handleSearchSubmit path runs the search and focuses the first result.
Also guard DebouncedMediaSearch against selection-only controller
notifications re-arming the debounce into a duplicate fetch.

A paused-but-alive player keeps its MediaCodec decoders and tunneled
passthrough AudioTrack while Plezy sits in the background, which can
degrade playback in every other app on shared-pipeline TV SoCs until
force-stop. After a 30s grace on Android TV the player is stopped
(retaining session state); returning reloads in place, or re-tunes the
channel for live TV.
All timed presets shared one 'timed' bool, so arming any of 15/30/60
minutes checkmarked all three. The service now retains the armed
duration (sleepTimerDuration) and the menu marks the matching preset.

The platforms advertise stop, skip forward/backward, and playback-rate
commands by default, but both the music and video handlers silently
dropped them (Android Auto/Bluetooth stop and FF/rewind did nothing;
iOS/macOS showed a dead rate control). setControlsEnabled now manages
those controls: music handles Stop and in-track skips and stops
advertising a speed control; video handles Stop (exit, matching the
companion remote), skips via a shared relative-seek helper, and rate
changes through player.setRate. Skip commands stay off on iOS/macOS
where they would displace the next/previous lock-screen buttons.

Shared TabChipStrip replaces the plain Rows in libraries/downloads/live
TV app bars (and live TV's hand-rolled scroll wrapper); chips center
themselves on focus so d-pad reaches off-screen tabs.
Queue sheet/panel now renders the whole playback order — dimmed played
tracks above the current one — instead of only up-next. Opens scrolled
to the current track and follows advancement while parked on it.
Wide layouts put the circular portrait beside a left-aligned
name/genre/bio/actions block (mirroring the album header) instead of
a centered mobile column floating over the left-hugging albums grid.
Album/artist downloads expand to tracks with pinned parent metadata,
aggregate progress, container deletes with reference-counted album
covers, and a Music tab on the downloads screen with fully offline
album playback. Home rows include music libraries (fixes plex hub
items being filtered to video types) and audio playlists join
download/sync rules.
Audio-only mpv core on every platform (dedicated
com.plezy/mpv_audio_player channels): parameterized android/windows/
linux mpv plugins and a new apple MpvAudioPlayerCore, all skipping
video/window paths (vid=no, audio-display=no, gapless-audio=weak).
MusicPlaybackService drives an in-memory queue with shuffle/repeat,
file-loaded-event gapless arming (property edges coalesce and the
android bridge drops them), per-track progress reporting, OS media
controls, audio focus, sleep timer, and error auto-skip.
PlaybackCoordinator enforces one live native player: starting video
disposes the audio core first.
Un-gates music libraries; adds CardShape.square plumbing (circular
artists), artists/albums/tracks browse groupings with per-grouping
sorts, audio playlists tab, artist + album detail screens with dpad
track rows, music context-menu actions, and a stub MusicPlaybackService
seam for the upcoming engine.
_ensureFallbackOnDeckEpisode is reached through unawaited fetch
continuations and reads providers through State.context — leaving the
screen before the season fetch settled crashed on the null-check in
the context getter.
Visited seasons' 200-item pages were retained for the screen's
lifetime — irrelevant for a 3-season show, tens of MB of Dart heap for
a 30-season one. Low-end TV now keeps the prefetch window (selected
season plus/minus one); evicted seasons transparently refetch through the
existing unloaded-hub path.

Android trim callbacks are best-effort — LMK can kill without ever
delivering one — yet the RSS watchdog only ran on desktop with a fixed
1.5GB bar no 2GB TV box ever reaches before dying. The watchdog now
runs on Android with a threshold scaled to device RAM, an eviction
floor and cooldown against refetch churn, and a lower backgrounded bar
since a paused app is LMK's first candidate.
The logs-screen header and startup line now record the renderer, the
effects tier with its raw hardware signals, and the boot RSS, so
uploaded reports answer whether the reduced tier engaged.
Ref #1349
Extract the manage/reorder-libraries sheet from the libraries screen into
a shared widget with a public launcher, and add a settings tile (top
group, gated on having libraries) that opens it. The libraries screen
keeps its side-nav refresh and re-select-on-hide behavior via launcher
hooks; the TV dialog path lives in the launcher so the entry works there
too.
Desktop overlay sheets defaulted to a fixed 400px max height, which left
the reorder sheet ~280px tall. Both default-constraint sites now use 75%
of window height, matching mobile.
close#1468
Initialize TvDetectionService on every platform so the existing
force_tv_mode setting drives the 10-foot TV interface on Windows,
macOS, and Linux, and surface the toggle in appearance settings there.
Desktop keeps real-mouse behavior in TV mode: InputModeTracker still
flips between pointer and keyboard modes (cursor hidden while
keyboard-driven), segmented controls keep their hover affordance, and
the settings backup section stays available (only Android TV lacks a
document picker).
Adds PlatformDetector.debugSetIsDesktopOSOverride so TV-device
simulations in widget tests don't inherit the desktop test host's
platform.
close#1409
The library Recommended tab never subscribed to deletion events, so
"Delete from server" left the episode sitting in Continue Watching
until a full reload. Make the tab DeletionAware (remove in place across
all hubs, then resync) and give DiscoverProvider the same subscription
so the home row and hubs drop deleted items too.
close#1486
Profile traces showed 100-370ms UI-thread frames while scrolling the
library screen, dominated by rebuilding and inflating media cards.
- Gate per-card focus/pointer chrome on input mode: FocusableWrapper
skips the scale/border wrappers and creates its AnimationController
lazily outside keyboard mode, and ClickableCursor plus the card tap
region only build MouseRegion/InkWell machinery on desktop - TV and
touch use a bare GestureDetector. Hub cards also drop their outer
gesture wrapper outside keyboard mode; the card's own tap region
always won the gesture arena anyway.
- Memoize sliver children (SliverChildMemo): browse/collections grids
and hub rows return identical widget instances for unchanged items,
so delegate swaps from pagination, watch-state, and deletion
setStates no longer rebuild every realized card inside layout. The
browse tab prunes the memo in lockstep with focus-node eviction so a
cached card can never resurrect a disposed FocusNode.
- Budget fresh inflation (CardInflationBudget): while a scrollable is
moving in pointer/touch mode at most one new card inflates per frame,
the rest render as SkeletonMediaCard and upgrade on following frames.
Hub rows also stop pre-inflating 250px of off-screen cards on entry.
Device traces: worst frame 373ms -> 103ms, per-card build 3.6ms ->
2.4ms median; remaining row-entry work is spread across frames.
Resolve platform, hardware model, and friendly device name once via a
shared DeviceIdentityService and send them to both backends: Plex gets
a real X-Plex-Platform plus X-Plex-Device/X-Plex-Device-Name (shown as
Player in dashboards/Tautulli), Jellyfin gets the device name in the
MediaBrowser auth header. Transcode and live-TV decision requests keep
their pinned platform names, which Plex validates server-side.
close#1270
The hero dots/pause row was gated on live input mode, so any navigation
key event (Android back key, BT keyboards, gamepad-source noise) hid it
until the next pointer event - on phones it ended up permanently hidden.
Gate on the TV platform instead (issue #600's actual scope); the TV
layout never renders the carousel, so nothing changes there.
The bottom fade lost its guaranteed opaque band when the section-level
gradient was removed (686a61ac): the per-item overlay only reached full
background at the literal last pixel, letting artwork ghost through the
final 15% and read as a hard cut against the content below - worst on
phones, where square hero art is bright at the bottom. Finish the fade
at solid background from the 0.94 stop (~32px band on a phone hero).
When focus drifts to the player's screen-level Focus node (after an
overlay sheet closes with the controls hidden), a hardware play/pause
key only revealed the chrome and leaked to Android's MediaSession,
which pauses unreliably when its state is throttled or suspended.
Intercept media play/pause at the screen node on TV-style navigation:
toggle via the same playback-intent path as the Apple TV bridge and
consume the event.
close#1375
Backing out to home selected the home tab but let focusActiveTabIfReady
steal real focus into the content while _isSidebarFocused stayed true,
leaving the rail stuck expanded over a shifted content box that clipped
the end of every hub row. Skip the content-focus grab while the sidebar
owns focus, move the sidebar focus ring to the Home item on back-to-home,
and self-heal the flag whenever the content scope actually gains focus.

Badge the mobile Library options icon with a dot while filters are
active, and replace the "This library is empty" state with a
"No items match the active filters" message plus a reset button.
close#1470
Re-enables Audio Passthrough on Apple TV against the MPVKit EAC3-JOC
AVPlayer sink (pin bump to v1.0.8 follows), adds an AVPlayer test
harness + diagnostics screen for #1300, and makes loudnorm yield while
passthrough is active (fixes a latent spdif conflict on desktop too).
