media3 reports STUCK_PLAYING_NOT_ENDING when the player sits in STATE_READY
past the declared duration with no renderer ending. On a tunneled MTK decoder
the clock ran a full minute past the last frame behind a black screen, so the
item never completed: no Play Next, no auto-play, and a "playing" timeline the
server kept extrapolating past the item duration.
Treat that report as the end of the file when the rendered-frame counter has
stopped as well, which separates a finished file from a container that
under-declares its duration and is still painting. The terminal event is shaped
like the STATE_ENDED one and pins the timeline at the duration first, so the
completion flow cannot mistake it for a stream that died mid-file. Shorten the
detection window to media3's stuck-playing default, and clamp a backend
hand-off to just inside the media so a fallback can no longer resume MPV past
the last frame and park there without reporting it.

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.
Cycling backdrops reach a fallback path only once every rotating path
has failed to load, but every hero passed the rotation-agnostic backdrop
list as the rotation set and the aspect-ordered candidates as the
fallback. One servable wide backdrop was therefore enough to hide the
square background for good, so phone detail and Discover heroes
cover-fitted a 16:9 backdrop into a portrait box instead of showing the
square image Plex supplies.
Give the rotation set the same aspect-aware preference the candidate
list already has: near-square containers rotate the square background
alone and keep the backdrops behind it as fallbacks.
close#1700
Explore only reached search through an app-bar icon that pushed a separate
screen. Touch and pointer builds now carry the field inline under the app
bar: results replace the shelves while the query is non-empty and the
shelves return when it clears. TV keeps pushing CatalogSearchScreen, since
a text field cannot share the spotlight scaffold with the bottom-pinned
browse rail and the on-screen keyboard.
Pull-to-refresh and the toolbar refresh action re-run the live query
instead of reloading hidden rows, and switching catalog source re-runs the
query against the new source rather than leaving the previous source's
results under its name.
Plex Explore showed only the Watchlist row. `/hubs/sections/watchlist`
answers with placeholder hubs — every entry carries `placeholder: true`,
`size: 0` and no `Metadata` — so `fetchHubs` mapped each one to an empty
page and dropped all of them. That is true no matter what the profile has
watchlisted; the shelves never rendered.
Read `/hubs/sections/home` instead, the section Plex's own web client
renders on its Home > Trending tab, and hydrate each placeholder from its
own key (six at a time). `directory` shelves list browse categories and
`clip` shelves list trailers, neither of which becomes a catalog item, so
they are skipped before spending a request. A shelf that fails degrades to
the ones that succeeded; a pass where every shelf failed still throws.
Discover ignores container offsets on hub keys and truncates with `limit`
instead, so a hub is one page: View All takes the whole shelf in a single
request rather than replaying page one, and hub requests drop `Media` and
`Image` elements the catalog layer never reads.
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.
Keep the action enabled and let a press retry the snapshot, as the media
detail action bar already does. A disabled sole action left the detail screen
with no initial D-pad focus on TV.
Only the load that commits a favorites set writes the loaded flag, so a
refresh keeps the previous set authoritative. Clearing it up front widened
the guide to the full lineup for the whole round-trip and moved the D-pad
cursor when it collapsed back.
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.
`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.
StubMusicPlaybackService is a base for test doubles with no production
caller, so `check-unused-code lib` flagged it and the analysis job
failed. Moves it to test/test_helpers/, where shared fakes belong.
71735354 made TvTextInputPresentation.automatic use native platform
input for single-line Apple TV fields, and 829d3745 migrated the search
and Add Jellyfin suites to it. These five cases still expected the
Flutter on-screen keyboard widget and failed looking for a panel that no
longer exists.
Drives the native path instead: each case asserts input is live
(readOnly false), raises the keyboard, then keeps its original
regression intent — the first Back deactivates input and is consumed so
it cannot also pop, and only the second Back pops or cancels.
Settings rows carried their own platform-conditional typography and
density, so on desktop and TV they rendered a 16px title, 14px subtitle
and 80px row while every other row in the app — the Focusable*ListTile
defaults plus ThemeData.listTileTheme's `dense: true` — renders 13/12
in 61px.
Drop the overrides instead of re-tuning them: the tile defaults already
encode the app's row style, and the explicit title styles were redundant
under a dense ListTile (they also masked the disabled/selected title
color). settingsOptionTitleStyle now only serves group children that are
not ListTiles, and matches the dense title unconditionally.
SettingsGroup hands its children that same compact density, so the plain
ListTiles used as non-interactive info rows stop standing 11px taller
than their interactive siblings.
Groundwork for #1300. Establishes the session, buffering and route
handling Dolby's application guide prescribes, and adds the diagnostic
arm needed to find out whether Apple's sample-buffer renderer can carry
Atmos objects at all.
Audio session, per the guide's sequence:
- Adopt the long-form playback profile in one atomic call at app launch
and activate the session there. The SDK only accepts that policy with
category Playback, a Default/MoviePlayback/SpokenAudio mode and no
options, so it cannot be assembled from separate calls.
- Report the resolved rendering mode in the player, hidden unless the
system resolves it. Apple only resolves it for CarPlay and AirPlay, so
an unresolved value means unknown, never "not Dolby".
Diagnostics (Apple TV only, Settings > Video Playback > Atmos Output Test):
- Add a sample-buffer arm. It reads the asset with AVAssetReader at
outputSettings nil and hands the untouched compressed buffers and the
untouched format description straight to the renderer, with a variant
that rebuilds the description the way playback builds it. Every
existing mode went through AVPlayer, so nothing exercised the path
playback actually uses; this is what tells us whether the renderer or
our construction is at fault.
- Add an AirPlay route picker. AirPlay is the only route where the system
resolves the rendering mode and the supported channel layouts, so it is
what makes those observations reachable at all, and the AVPlayer arms
now allow external playback so every arm can be compared on the same
destination.
- Add a session-mode toggle for the one profile difference between the
guide and previous playback behaviour.
- Report the session profile, supported layouts, both format
descriptions, the magic cookie and the renderer status, and release the
session on stop so a failed run cannot contaminate the next one.
Also bumps MPVKit to 1.0.14, which carries the matching audio output
work: the channel layout AVFoundation itself uses for Dolby content, a
renderer-failure observer so the fallback to PCM can actually run, the
prescribed feed ordering and preroll, flush recovery that re-supplies the
discarded audio instead of shifting later audio into its place, and
capability-driven fallback on route and capability changes.
This does not yet fix#1300. Whether the sample-buffer renderer can carry
JOC is still unknown; it removes every difference from the documented
setup that could explain the failure, and gives us the arm to answer it
on real hardware.
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.
- 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.
Collapse duplicated setup across the suite into six shared helpers under
test/test_helpers/ and rewrite the 28 suites that were open-coding it:
http_fixtures.dart jsonResponse() for http.Response JSON stubs
library_tab_scaffold.dart pumps library tabs under their required ancestors
multi_server_fixtures.dart MultiServerProvider wiring for widget tests
playback_report_fakes.dart PlaybackReportCall + fake report sinks
profile_stack.dart production-shaped profile dependency graph
theme.dart testMonoTokens for fast-settling widget tests
Net -1245 lines with no change in coverage or assertions.
