Plezy declares appCategory="video", so on Android Automotive OS it is a
parked app bound by car app quality DD-2/DD-3: audio must stop when the
vehicle starts driving and must not be resumable while driving. Two paths
kept audio alive. Music playback ran under a mediaPlayback foreground
service whose lifecycle observer was registered for Apple TV only, so it
never paused when Android backgrounded the app. Video pausing hung off
AppLifecycleState.hidden, which Flutter only synthesizes once Android
delivers onStop; a car without the Automotive compatibility mode delivers
onPause alone, which maps to AppLifecycleState.inactive and the player
ignored.
Gate every path that can start audio on a new lifecycle predicate,
automotivePlaybackAllowed, which permits playback on a car only while the
app is resumed and fails closed on an unknown lifecycle state. That covers
explicit play, gapless arming and track transitions, live retry and
channel switch, frame-rate-match resume, VOD/live startup, and the queue
navigation commands of the OS media session, plus a last-resort pause for
when the platform player resumes itself on native audio-focus regain.
Playback authority on the media-session router is deliberately left alone:
the router consumes a denied event, so gating it would swallow PauseEvent
and leave the OS unable to stop audio. Reacting to lifecycle callbacks is
the mechanism the platform documents as sufficient, so no android.car
dependency is added.
The music queue no longer requests POST_NOTIFICATIONS on a car, where the
foreground service and its notification never start: there is nothing to
authorize, and the prompt would take focus and make the gate discard the
first play intent.
Detect the form factor too: FEATURE_AUTOMOTIVE now vetoes the Android TV
verdict, so a rotary-only head unit no longer inherits the leanback
experience. Picture-in-picture is gated on FEATURE_PICTURE_IN_PICTURE,
which cars lack, so the app's UI cannot stay on screen while driving, and
nothing forces a preferred orientation on a fixed-orientation display.
Since real device names started reaching the header, an accented one
made login impossible: dart:io refuses header values above 0x7F, and
CFNetwork puts the raw code unit on the wire as a Latin-1 byte, which
Kestrel rejects as a malformed request with 400 before Jellyfin routes
POST /Users/AuthenticateByName.
Encode every field the way the official Jellyfin SDK does; the server
already reverses it with WebUtility.UrlDecode, so the wire value stays
pure ASCII while the device list shows the real name. Quotes, commas
and `=` no longer need stripping either. sanitizeHeaderValue, which
still guards the Plex headers, now folds Latin letters to their base
form instead of emitting bytes no transport accepts.

`dart format --set-exit-if-changed` over lib and test rewrites these.
The analysis job never reached its formatting step, so the drift went
unnoticed. No behaviour changes.
Consolidates duplicated logic behind shared implementations — paginated
grid tabs, focus chrome, cached remote stores, sheet selection columns,
the server artifact store and a test fixture layer — and removes code
that had become unreachable. Net reduction of about 5,500 lines with no
behaviour change.
Where a fix had landed separately in code that moved into a shared
helper, the fix was re-applied inside the helper rather than left behind
in the copy that went away.
Deduplicates the hand-rolled coalescing/caching maps, the Plex client cast,
the missing-serverId event guard and the progress-failure backoff, and drops
the MusicPlaybackService availability gate, which could never fail in
production.
The search screens, the out-of-band auth dialogs, the live TV guide and the
list-download paths each carried their own copy of the same shell. Extracts
SearchInputField and PendingAuthDialog and routes the duplicated download
and guide helpers through one implementation.
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.
Extracts the repeated toolbar fade into a single ToolbarScrim widget, folds
duplicated request/retry handling in the media server HTTP client, and
collapses the parallel playback-source, download-manager and live TV helper
paths into shared implementations.
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.
Several pairs of near-identical code paths differ in one load-bearing
line. Each site now carries a comment naming the invariant that forces it
apart, backed by a characterization test so a future deduplication fails
loudly instead of silently changing behaviour.
Pinned: focusable wrapper vs. chip D-pad activation policy, profile
connection cleanup's raw-id vs. ServerId-typed server projections, live TV
tab loaders, video player display matching and playback service wiring,
track selection container ordering, tracker HTTP client status ladder, and
the MediaServerHttpClient shutdown/cancellation contract versus
ManagedHttpClient's closing guard.
New tests:
test/focus/dpad_activation_policy_test.dart
test/services/track_selection_container_ordinal_test.dart
test/services/trackers/tracker_status_ladder_test.dart
test/utils/media_server_http_client_shutdown_test.dart
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.
Complete and revise every shipped locale against the current English source, preserve locale-specific plurals, and map script-specific Chinese locales through device, Intl, duration, and Plex boundaries.
