Close#1823
Tunneled playback on an AFTMM judders continuously through 23.976p direct play.
The #1802 reporter isolated it: turning off Tunneled Playback with every other
setting unchanged makes it smooth, and their log shows tunneling active for the
whole session with E-AC3 bitstreamed and the decoded-PCM guard never firing.
Audio Passthrough looked like the trigger only because it is the one user-facing
switch that decides it. Passthrough off, or Downmix to Stereo on, both force the
Dolby track to decode to PCM, which trips the #1458 guard and takes tunneling
down with it. Passthrough on with downmix off is the only combination that keeps
a bitstreamed track, so it is the only one that stays tunneled.
Withdraw tunneling on that model for content at or below 30fps. The cut-off
keeps 4K50/60 tunneled, which is the workload Amazon documents the feature for.
The mechanism stays unconfirmed: tunneling fires no VideoFrameMetadataListener
and stops media3 counting frames in the codec, so nothing app-side can measure
the cadence. Only the trigger is established, and the quirk is scoped to it.
That needs a frame rate the app did not have. Neither MatroskaExtractor nor
Mp4Extractor populates Format.frameRate, and a tunneled session renders no
frames back for the native detector, so the server's rate now rides on the open
call. It is sent only for direct play, matching _primeDisplayCriteria: a
transcode's metadata describes the source, not what the server is about to send.
Also move Audio Passthrough out of the in-player settings sheet. It configures
the audio output route rather than the current playback, and applying it
mid-stream bounces the audio renderer and re-decides tunneling. Settings > Video
Playback already owns it, next to Tunneled Playback, which is applied the same
way. That description now mentions stutter, not only black HDR video, so the
workaround is findable on hardware this quirk does not cover.
The mpv backend failing to start the same 4K file is a separate defect and is
not addressed here; its uploaded log is no longer retrievable.
"Delete from server" read identically for an episode, a season and a
whole show: same menu label, same dialog title, same red button, and a
body that named nothing. The menu header did not disambiguate either,
because MediaItem.displayTitle collapses an episode to its show name.
A reporter deleted a whole series from the detail hero's ⋮ believing it
acted on the episode he had highlighted, and the confirmation gave him
nothing to catch it with. Every one of those strings now names the kind,
and the body names the exact item — show, season and episode number, and
episode title.
Deleting a single item also destroyed files the confirmation never
mentioned: a Plex multi-episode file (S01E01-E03.mkv) takes its other
episodes with it, and a split item takes every part. The dialog now
reports that up front and, on success, emits deletion events for the
siblings the server destroyed so their rows do not linger.
The scope behind that warning is only asserted when it is established.
MediaItem.allPartFiles drops parts with no path, so a non-empty set
proves nothing about the ones it filtered out; a version is trusted only
when every part reports a file. A browse row that omits paths is missing
evidence rather than proof of a distinct file, so both the target and
each candidate sibling fall back to the detail endpoint before any
conclusion — otherwise a thin row, including the file-less part
PlexMappers fabricates for an empty payload, would look like a server
that withholds paths. When the answer cannot be established the dialog
says so in an error-tinted block and its button reads "Delete anyway",
separating a transient probe failure from a server that never sends
paths. It deliberately does not refuse: Plex withholds paths from
restricted users the server itself authorizes to delete, so failing
closed would take the feature away from them permanently.
Probing a season stays bounded in both directions. Siblings resolve one
at a time, so a season of thin rows cannot fan out a detail request per
episode, and expiry cancels the walk rather than merely abandoning it —
`Future.timeout` completes the future the caller awaits but leaves the
work behind it running, which would resume on the next sibling once the
outstanding request answered. A cooperative flag is checked before each
lookup, so at most the one already in flight outlives the deadline; the
neutral client exposes no abort handle for item lookups, so that one
cannot be recalled.
The spinner covering the probe was only barrierDismissible, which does
not stop system back. Back dismissed it and the cleanup pop then closed
the screen underneath, dropping the user out of the detail page
mid-flow. It now traps back, matching the non-dismissible contract its
own doc claims, which also repairs the log uploader and the file-info
sheet.
Coverage splits by what each layer owns. The dialog, its copy and the
DELETE wiring are backend-neutral and stay in the menu widget tests.
Plex — the backend multi-episode files actually come from — gets the
resolver over a real PlexClient and a mocked transport: a row with no
media at all, scope recovered from /library/metadata/{id}, siblings and
paths from /children, a Part that names no file, a sibling whose path
never resolves, the request count a sixty-episode thin season may cost,
and the rating key the DELETE carries. Those are plain async tests
because the Plex metadata cache is a real database whose I/O the widget
tester's fake clock never drives. Deadline behaviour needs the opposite,
so it is pinned separately under fakeAsync against a gated fake client,
with no wall-clock waiting anywhere.
close#1781
A Plex account connection labels itself with the account owner's name.
Under a profile tile that reads as being signed in as the owner: the
Plex Home tile showed the owner beneath the Home user's own name, and a
local profile that borrowed a Home user out of someone else's account
showed only the lender.
Both halves of the relation now go through a single translated string,
so a locale orders them itself instead of inheriting the English
"user via account" — az, hu, ja, kk, ko, tr, uz, zh and zh-Hant put the
account first. When the Home cache cannot resolve the connection's uuid
the chip names the account alone rather than falling back to a bare
name. ProfilesView carries the Home user cache that resolution needs,
and chip labels ellipsize now that an account label can be an email.
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.
With the new playback setting enabled, episode advance carries no audio or
subtitle preference at all, so both resolve from the streams selected on
the server for each individual episode. This serves setups that curate
selections server-side (e.g. Plex Auto Languages) and is independent of
"Remember track selections", which keeps gating only the write-back of
manual changes.
close#1717
The sheet collapsed an item to `Media.first` / `MediaSources.first` and
rendered a fixed set of rows, so split files, extra versions, per-track
properties, HDR classification and Dolby Vision were all invisible.
Model the payload the way both servers shape it — versions own parts,
parts own streams — and project every property either backend populates
onto `MediaStreamDetails`. The field set comes from sweeping both test
servers in full through the clients' own request shapes (Plex 6842
Media / 6842 Part / 39864 Stream entries, Jellyfin 6349 sources / 37763
streams / 61224 attachments), so file presence, Dolby Vision layers,
dynamic range, sample rate, spatial audio, sidecar provenance, embedded
attachments, rotation and the lyric stream type all survive. A coverage
test fails when a server key is neither carried, folded into a sibling,
nor excluded with a reason.
File Info also stopped trusting the shared `/library/metadata/{id}`
cache row: `getPlaybackExtras` writes it without `includeStreams` /
`checkFiles`, so the sheet could render with no stream table at all.
Detect that shape and refetch once under the request context captured
before the cache read, so the outgoing token and the cache namespace
stay on one profile.
Rework the layout to match: a summary chip row, then flat tonal cards
with a two-column field grid that collapses to one column on narrow
viewports, per-stream cards with flag chips, and a copyable monospace
path row. The card fill is a tonal step off the text colour rather than
the `bg` token, which is one shade from the sheet surface on OLED.
`clean_translations.py --strict` reported seven unused keys.
Three are genuinely dead: TrackSelectionHelper.getEmptyMessage was
removed as unreachable in 4307c49c, and the sheets that need an empty
state carry their own strings. Removes them from every locale.
The four accessibility keys are false positives. tv_number_spinner
aliased the subtree as `final a11y = ...accessibility`, which the static
scanner cannot follow — its docstring says as much. Binds the documented
`final t = Translations.of(context)` instead and hoists the two labels,
so the semantics stay identical and the scanner sees the chains.
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.

Queue sheet/panel now renders the whole playback order — dimmed played
tracks above the current one — instead of only up-next. Opens scrolled
to the current track and follows advancement while parked on it.
Re-enables Audio Passthrough on Apple TV against the MPVKit EAC3-JOC
AVPlayer sink (pin bump to v1.0.8 follows), adds an AVPlayer test
harness + diagnostics screen for #1300, and makes loudnorm yield while
passthrough is active (fixes a latent spdif conflict on desktop too).
The aired-order rework can sweep correctly-placed Specials into "download
next N"; this toggle lets users opt out. Shown only for whole shows
(reusing FocusableSwitchListTile via an optional toggle on the shared
option-picker dialog), remembered across opens via a BoolPref
(default on = unchanged behavior). Filters Specials at the single
collect choke point (_collectPlayable), with a guard so explicitly
downloading the Specials season still queues its episodes.
