* fix(player): preserve volume when toggling mute
Muting now keeps the last volume level memorized. Unmuting restores that level, including amplified values allowed by the configured maximum.
* fix(player): preserve volume for companion remote mute
Route the companion remote through the shared mute transition so it no longer overwrites the persisted volume or restores to 100%. Also correct the Dartdoc formatting for the transition record fields.
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.
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.
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.

Guest switch dispatch pre-marked its dedup key and fired-and-forgot, so
any failure (fetch error, reload busy with an auto-advance, navigation
race with the host exiting) silently stranded the guest on the old media.
A CurrentPlaybackDispatcher now marks a key handled only after the sink
reports success against the committed identity, with a serialized
in-flight slot, timeout, and generation reset; the reconciler re-offers
unattached media on every host heartbeat, making the heartbeat the retry
channel. Fetches that outlive their dispatch are re-validated against the
current snapshot so a stale switch can't override the live one.
hostExitedPlayer now rides the controller's ordered message queue with
host authentication instead of racing state handling in the provider.
Extends the Plex play-queue fix (#1416) to the shared episode comparator
so Specials interleave by air date everywhere, not just Plex streaming:
offline next/prev, the Jellyfin online queue, offline OnDeck, and the
download/sync "next N" selection. Undated episodes fall back to
Specials-last, preserving the #1414 "never front-load the Specials
folder" guarantee. Jellyfin queue now requests PremiereDate.
* fix(plex): show PGS subtitles when transcoding
Bitmap subtitles (PGS/VOBSUB) disappeared from the menu while transcoding on Plex, leaving only "Off". The MKV transcode already supports them, so embed them in the stream like text subs. Now they show up and can be turned on.
* fix(plex): give bitmap subtitle codecs the right sidecar extension
getSubtitleExtension fell back to .srt for vobsub, pgssub and dvb subs. Map them to .sub/.sup so it stays consistent with isImageSubtitleCodec and any sidecar URL or download uses the correct extension.
