The Top Shelf extension now fetches Continue Watching directly from
Plex/Jellyfin/Emby instead of replaying a cache the app wrote on its
last foreground Discover pass. The app publishes per-profile server
descriptors on every shelf sync (`updateSources`): token-free metadata
in the app group, tokens in an app-group-shared keychain item, both
wiped by `clear`. On success the extension rewrites the cached payload
as the offline fallback; any fetch failure falls back to the previous
cache-replay behavior. Poster images are passed as remote URLs, so the
extension no longer depends on app-side artwork downloads.
Episodes now render season/series poster art (2:3, `.poster` shape)
instead of 16:9 episode stills, and labels lead with the S/E marker so
long titles no longer hide it behind the focused-item marquee. Shelf
schema v3 (Dart, Android, tvOS envelopes bumped together) discards
stale wide-art caches instead of letterboxing them into poster slots.

Read the sources from disk instead of a hand-maintained allow-list that the
script uses destructively, and add a guard that fails when the project and
directory disagree. FlutterNativeTextInputTests.mm was the second test the
list would have silently unwired.
Brings in the AVFoundation audio output's bounded PCM lookahead, which
is compiled in on macOS only. AVSampleBufferAudioRenderer holds roughly
1.7s of audio there, and mpv multiplies --volume into the samples as it
hands them over, so a volume change stayed inaudible until that backlog
drained. The bound cuts the queue to about 450ms, measured; tvOS and
iOS preprocess to the source they had before the patch, so the deep
buffering their AirPlay path relies on is untouched.
Also carries the Dolby-conformant compressed EAC3 sink from 1.0.15.
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.
Routes all single-layer DV profile 8 (incl. compat 0) through the Apple
DV decode path, so VideoToolbox decodes it in hardware as true Dolby
Vision instead of failing over to software HDR10. Refs #1262.
