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.
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.
On phone layouts main_screen pushes SettingsScreen as its own route, and
that route carried no OverlaySheetHost. showAdaptive could not find one
from the tile's context, so Manage Libraries fell back to
showModalBottomSheet. The sheet also owns a focused Back handler, so a
single Android Back arrived twice — once as a key event, once as
popRoute — and the two route-based paths raced, tearing down Settings
along with the sheet.
Installs one route-local host when no enclosing host exists, and opens
the sheet from a context below it. OverlaySheetHost then holds the route
while a sheet is open and deduplicates the key path, so one Back closes
only the sheet.
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.
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.
