Trakt was the one service outside the tracker abstraction. TraktScrobbleService
re-implemented the whole playback lifecycle beside TrackerCoordinator, and
TraktSyncService pushed watched state from its own WatchStateNotifier
subscription, so the player called two objects at every lifecycle point and one
watch could be written twice. TraktTracker now implements RealtimeScrobbleTracker
like Simkl; the duplicated player call sites collapse to one each, and Trakt
shares the coordinator's ID resolver instead of re-fetching show ids every
episode.
Capabilities are split so a tracker declares what it is rather than being
special-cased: ScrobblePolicy carries each service's own resend/seek rules,
EpisodeHistoryTracker names the remote row a per-item history write targets, and
SeriesProgressTracker covers one-counter-per-series services. Writes from all
four trackers go through a shared TrackerWriteQueue, generalised from the
Trakt-only queue, with the legacy Trakt payload migrated on load. Trakt becomes
the fourth TrackersProvider slot and TraktAccountProvider is deleted, so one
object owns the active session per profile.
Two failure paths found while consolidating are fixed here too.
The queue's retries only ran on profile bind, connect and app foreground, so a
network blip mid-session left queued watches waiting for the next foreground.
OfflineModeProvider now notifies on connectivity changes, not just offline-state
or WiFi-flag changes, and main.dart flushes the queue when the network returns.
The queue also counted every failure toward the five attempts that permanently
drop an item, so a rate limit or a service having a bad hour could discard a
pending watch - the loss the queue exists to prevent. Only an answer about the
write itself now spends an attempt: 4xx counts, while rate limits, 5xx,
recoverable token-refresh failures and requests that never arrived do not. A
back-off answer also defers that service for the rest of the flush, so a queue
holding many rows does not fire all of them at a service that just asked for
quiet.
Four sections of the catalog detail screen spent more room than their data
justified.
Franchise relations drew one hub shelf per label. Real payloads make that
absurd: MAL returns twelve relations for Attack on Titan across six labels,
and "Side story" and "Sequel" each hold exactly one title, so each spent a
header, a scroll row and one card. Flatten the labelled groups into one
"Related titles" section of compact rows — poster thumb, label, title and year
— that flow into columns on wide viewports. D-pad moves through the grid by
index and still hands off to the cast strip above and the recommendations
shelf below, which keeps its shelf because taste-based recommendations are
meant to be browsed.
Drop the MAL picture gallery. It was a horizontal strip of unfocusable poster
variants of the title you are already looking at, and it cost a page-height of
scroll; the `pictures` field comes back out of the detail request with it.
Draw attributed scores behind their own brand mark where the source has one,
the way the media detail screen already does: Rotten Tomatoes fresh/rotten and
upright/spilled, IMDb and TMDB, each on the scale that source publishes.
Sources with no mark (critic, audience, tracker scores) keep their written
label. Plex's own badge state is derived from the 60% tomatometer threshold it
encodes in `image.rating.ripe`.
Flow the definition rows — original title, studios, country, budget, box
office, crew — into two or three columns once the window is wide enough.
A 1440-wide window drew a 140-pixel label, a short value and 1,000 pixels of
nothing per fact.
Verified against live MAL and Plex Discover payloads on macOS: the Attack on
Titan page drops from 4,082 to 2,115 logical pixels, Dune: Part Two from 1,282
to 1,154.
Explore shelf cards drew a poster, a title and a year. An audit of all six
catalog sources found the rest was lost at two boundaries — the wire-to-DTO
mapping and the DTO-to-CatalogItem mapping — and then simply not drawn: the
grid card fell through every branch of buildMetadataSubtitle to the year-only
case, while the list card used by search already composed certification,
runtime and rating from fields the synthesized MediaItem already held.
Extend CatalogItem with the neutral facts every provider had been dropping:
attributed rating sources, leaderboard ranks that keep their season window,
audience counters that keep their timeframe, broadcast slots, next-episode air
times, server availability and request state, exact release dates, alternate
titles, format, source material, studios, countries, languages, credits, tags,
links, artwork variants, play state, gallery art and background prose. Replace
fetchCast and fetchRelated with one fetchDetail returning the enriched item,
its cast, its recommendations and labelled franchise relations without adding
a request: sources needing two calls keep two and run them concurrently with
isolated failures.
Map those fields in all six sources, widening only field selections that cost
no extra round trip — MAL's fields list, AniList's selection set and a bounded
row cast that lets detail skip its character call, Trakt's guest stars, Seerr's
language parameter and TMDB size ladder, and Plex's includeUserState. Plex hub
artwork widens only on TV, where the spotlight is its only consumer, because it
doubles the payload.
Render them: a rating-first caption and bounded badges on the shelf card,
labelled sections on the detail screen, provider hub styles and result counts
on shelves, and logo, banner and accent art in the TV spotlight.
Verified against live Plex, AniList, Simkl and MAL responses, and on a Pixel 7.
MAL/AniList season entries never matched the library show they belong to.
Both backends use the catalog title as a server-side filter before verifying
external ids, and a title like "Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation Season 2"
cannot reach a show stored as "Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation". Measured
against a 267-show Plex library, 3 of 113 mapped sequel entries matched.
The reverse lookup now takes two ordered title candidates instead of one: the
entry's own title and its season-stripped form, with typographic punctuation
normalised because both servers miss on a curly apostrophe. That matches 77 of
113. Widening it further to romaji/native/synonym variants reached only 81, so
the cap stays at two rather than spending up to five more requests per lookup
that finds nothing.
A sequel's year is its own season's, not the parent show's, so the +/-1 year
window is dropped for one - it would exclude the very show being looked for.
That also keeps a miss at the two requests the single-title lookup already
spent. A Plex Discover item additionally skips the title search entirely by
filtering on the plex:// guid its own rating key already is, which costs no
extra request and needs no cloud lookup.
A season 2+ entry only matches when the server really has that season, which
costs one children fetch on a match. Only a season both TVDB and TMDB agree on
is gated: which provider a library numbers its seasons by is a server setting
no dataset supplies and none of it is inferable from the ids an item exposes,
so a disagreeing reference is left ungated rather than gated on a guess.
The match cache is keyed per source and per entry rather than by canonical id,
which every season of a series shares: all five Mushoku Tensei entries collapse
to imdb:tt13293588, so one season-gated result would have poisoned the rest.
Entries whose Fribb row carries no provider id at all remain unmatched. That is
an upstream mapping gap, not something to guess around with extra lookups.

Detection now runs off the UI isolate and covers every platform where
the answer can be trusted.
Availability was a plain platform check, so Linux always listed VLC, mpv
and Celluloid, macOS always listed VLC and IINA, and Windows always
listed VLC and PotPlayer whether or not any of them existed. Each player
now has a detector that asks exactly the question its launcher asks:
`sh -c 'command -v'` for PATH launches so the kernel performs the
executable check, NSWorkspace/Launch Services for `open -a`, `where.exe`
plus the concrete install paths for Windows VLC, and the registered URL
handler for PotPlayer and the iOS players.
Detection is asynchronous and memoised behind KnownPlayers.probe rather
than a Process.runSync in a static initialiser, which forked three
shells on the UI isolate during ExternalPlayerScreen.build. It is
prewarmed from startup, fails open when a probe throws, and keeps the
selected player listed when a detector misses it so a false negative
cannot leave the list with nothing selected.
iOS and tvOS gained LSApplicationQueriesSchemes entries for vlc and
infuse. Without them canOpenURL returns false for both schemes, so
_launchUrlScheme was already refusing to hand off to either player.
Android keeps the platform check: package visibility needs native
declarations, and a wrong answer there hides a working player.
user_switch_response.dart was left holding a single 13-line function after
UserSwitchResponse's decorative fields were dropped, so the filename no
longer described its contents and it sat at lib/models/ root while every
other Plex model lives in lib/models/plex/.
Renamed to lib/models/plex/plex_switch_response.dart, with the test moved
alongside the other plex_*_test.dart files. The parser stays public so the
#1488 drift characterization tests keep exercising it directly.
Focus chrome was implemented twice, once in the focusable wrapper and once
in the focus builders; both now go through FocusChrome. TvColorPicker's
channel row was a copy of TvNumberSpinner and is now that widget in compact
density.
Also trims unused helpers and fields and simplifies the Jellyfin browse
paths.
- Merge SeerrMovieDetails/SeerrTvDetails into one SeerrDetails model and
route both detail endpoints through a single request helper.
- Replace the three parallel tracker session/store/rebind-generation
triples in TrackersProvider with a _TrackerSlot record plus one _rebind
path.
- Fold the three JellyfinSequentialLauncher entry points onto a shared
_launchLocalQueue helper that owns loading, abort, shuffle and publish;
each caller now supplies only its fetch.
- PaginatedCardGridTabState: the collections and playlists tabs were 95%
identical; they now supply only pageSize/fetchPage/idOf instead of each
duplicating the grid, memo, inflation budget and focus wiring.
- EtagCachedRemoteStore: the anime-lists and fribb mapping stores now share
one download/cache/isolate-parse/conditional-GET lifecycle.
- FocusableTileStateMixin manages its own initState/didUpdateWidget/dispose
instead of requiring every caller to forward three lifecycle hooks.
Also drops unused ServerCapabilities entries and dead code in
focusable_list_tile and music/track_row.
Introduces shared seams for paginated views, D-pad reorder, media control
routing, async singletons and the device method channel, then points the
open-coded copies at them.
Also removes unused models and duplicated provider/server plumbing, folds
the twice-implemented artifact store in the server, and factors the
repeated Flutter toolchain prologue in CI into a composite action.
Drops dead code across services, models, utils and widgets, including the
connection auth service, which had no implementer, and the Live TV DVR
provisioning models, which had no caller.
Tests that only covered deleted behaviour are removed or trimmed. No
behaviour change.
Same clients.plex.tv surface that broke in #1488: /home/users powers
first sign-in and profile setup, so a drifted scalar shape would kill
the whole fetch. Coerce strings, bools, and ints tolerantly instead of
hard-casting.
Around July 3 plex.tv started returning the profile language-list fields
(defaultAudioLanguages, defaultSubtitleLanguages, mediaReviewsLanguages)
as comma-separated strings instead of arrays. The generated cast threw on
the successful 201 /switch response, dropping the freshly minted Home
user token: every rebind failed, the binder retried a /switch mint every
1-2s, and the app sat permanently in offline mode even after re-signing
in. Accounts without language prefs set were unaffected, which is why
the breakage looked sporadic.
Parse the language lists with a CSV-aware coercion, and make
UserSwitchResponse.fromJson strict only about authToken: decorative
fields now coerce tolerantly and a broken profile blob falls back to
defaults, so account-API drift can never brick token minting again.
close#1488
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.
