docs: fold shipped specs into the architecture docs and delete them
A spec was a promise; sixteen of them had become descriptions of code that already shipped, sitting beside four that describe work still outstanding, with nothing in the file telling the two apart. Half the statuses were also wrong — audio-equalizer read "Accepted" with the EQ live on both platforms, the native video spec said the flag stays off after the default was flipped on. The shipped designs move into docs/architecture, which is the maintained description of the build, and the spec files go. Git history keeps the originals; what a future change still needs is carried across: - 01-rust-backend: favourites rewritten (the old section named a file that no longer exists and called shipped buttons "planned"), domain vocabulary owned by Rust (SearchScope, exclusions, the bitrate ladder), background workers - 02-svelte-frontend: app shell and chrome, library mosaic, series/episode navigation, downloaded browse, safe-area insets, native-video store, logging - 03-data-flow: locally-indexed search - 05-platform-backends: audio settings on ExoPlayer, the equalizer's band vocabulary, native video compositing, the background-audio handoff - 06-downloads-and-offline: one storage model, offline catalog visibility - 09-security: path confinement and input binding docs/specs/README.md now says what the directory is for and where each shipped design went. Deferred work the specs recorded is kept beside the code it concerns rather than lost: season-bounded autoplay, the two dead search commands, why indexing is a full crawl. requirements.md had fourteen stale statuses — Android audio parity still read "Linux only", DR-150 still said the native-video default was off, DR-190 was Proposed after DR-196 implemented it, and five tooling requirements were Proposed after landing. Three unbuilt specs suggested requirement ids that have since been allocated to other work; each now carries a warning.

| DR-146 | The no-audio-track fallback picks a track the renderer can actually play. When ExoPlayer selected no audio track, the recovery forced group 0 / track 0 unconditionally — but the most likely reason nothing was selected is that this very track cannot be decoded on this device, so the override reinstated the silence it was meant to fix. It now scans the groups for the first `isTrackSupported` track and overrides to that, and clears `setTrackTypeDisabled(TRACK_TYPE_AUDIO)` because audio may equally have been off at the type level, which an override alone does not undo. When no group holds a supported track the condition is logged as an error — the server was expected to transcode — rather than leaving a silent video with no explanation in the log | Playback | UR-004 | Done |
|
||||
| DR-148 | The video direct-play profile advertises only what the **webview** can decode. The audio codec list comes from `MediaCodecList`, which describes ExoPlayer — but video does not play through ExoPlayer on either platform: Android force-renders every video in the webview `<video>` element (the interim override in `VideoPlayer.svelte`, because the native SurfaceView sits behind an opaque webview) and Linux always has. Chromium and WebKit decode a far narrower set than the platform does, and the gap is widest on devices whose vendor licenses Dolby: a phone shipping `/vendor/etc/media_codecs_dolby_audio.xml` reports `ac3,eac3`, so Jellyfin direct-played an E-AC-3 track with `static=true` and the webview built a video decoder and no audio decoder at all — full picture, no sound. The defect is triggered by *capability*, not the lack of it, which is why it reproduced on one Motorola while a Fairphone and an Honor tablet played the same file on the same build: a device without the Dolby decoder never claims the codec, so the server transcodes to AAC and it plays. `video_audio_codecs` narrows the platform list to the webview-decodable set (`aac,mp3,opus,vorbis,flac`) for the video direct-play profile *only* — the audio-only profile keeps the full list, since that playback really is the native player's and narrowing it would transcode music that plays perfectly well. A list with nothing decodable still claims `aac` rather than going out empty, because a profile that claims nothing invites the server to give up instead of transcoding. The video codec list is deliberately untouched: HEVC direct-plays through the webview correctly, so the constraint is specific to audio | Playback | UR-004 | Done |
|
||||
| DR-149 | The client decides whether its own renderer can decode the audio, rather than trusting the server's negotiation. Advertising a webview-shaped profile (DR-148) turned out to be necessary but not sufficient: Jellyfin 10.11.5 enforces a `DirectPlayProfile`'s `Container` and `VideoCodec` — excluding either returns `SupportsDirectPlay: false` with `TranscodeReasons=ContainerNotSupported` / `VideoCodecNotSupported` — but **ignores its `AudioCodec`**, offering an E-AC-3 track for direct play against a profile listing only `aac,flac,mp3,opus,vorbis`. Neither a `VideoAudio` `CodecProfile` forbidding the codec nor a `MaxAudioChannels: 2` against a 6-channel track changes the answer, so no profile the client can send fixes it and the picture plays silent. The negotiated source's audio is therefore checked locally against what the webview decodes, and an undecodable track forces the existing h264/aac HLS transcode URL regardless of the server saying direct play is fine — `direct_play` and `needs_transcoding` are corrected to match, so the frontend and the reporting path agree with the URL actually used. The track judged is the one the server would serve: the default, or the first when nothing is marked default, since a supported track further down the list is not the one that plays. A source with no audio streams, or a stream whose codec the server did not name, is left alone — forcing a transcode on a guess spends server CPU on files that already play | Playback | UR-004 | Done |

The flag is a **suppressor, never a promoter**: off forces HTML5 even where Rust says native, so an in-progress spike cannot ship as the default, but it can never select native where Rust reported HTML5 (Linux cannot composite behind WebKitGTK, so promoting there is a black screen). Compositing requires clearing two independent opaque layers, and clearing only one leaves audio over a black picture — the WebView widget background and window drawable from Kotlin (`AndroidVideoSurface.setTransparent`), and the page's `html`/`body` and app-shell background from CSS (`data-native-video`).

| DR-153 | The git tag is the single source of truth for a release version. The version lived in four files (`package.json`, `tauri.conf.json`, `Cargo.toml`, `Cargo.lock`) that had to be hand-edited in lockstep, and CI's release job rewrote exactly one of them — so a tagged build produced an installer named for the tag wrapped around package metadata naming the previous release, while the Linux job had no version step at all and shipped whatever was committed. `scripts/set-version.sh` writes all four from one argument and is the only thing that does; every release job calls it with the tag. The Android `versionCode` is derived in the same place as `1000 + major*10000 + minor*100 + patch`, which is monotonic in semver order and clears the 1000 floor already installed in the field — a lower code than the installed one makes Android refuse the update. A prerelease suffix is stripped before that arithmetic, which would otherwise abort the script, and a non-tag ref (CI passes `${GITHUB_REF#refs/tags/}` unconditionally) falls back to `git describe` rather than failing a branch build | Build | - | Done |

One cause for all of it: **nothing painted the bars.** The window surface is opaque (the theme is not translucent), and for an opaque surface HWUI deliberately does not clear the damaged region before replaying a frame — it assumes the view hierarchy covers every pixel. That hierarchy is window background → video `TextureView` → transparent WebView, and `fitSurfaceToScreen` sizes the TextureView to the *letterboxed* video rect, so the bars were the window background's alone to paint. `setTransparent(true)` cleared that background to `TRANSPARENT`, leaving the bars painted by nobody and whatever was last in the framebuffer surviving in them. Fixed by keeping the window background opaque black while compositing; the WebView's own background is what lets the video through, and the TextureView is drawn on top of the window background, so an opaque one cannot hide it. Three earlier fixes aimed at the window's rotation animation and at TextureView frame-retention (two `postOnAnimation` hops, an `onSurfaceTextureUpdated` reveal, then `ROTATION_ANIMATION_JUMPCUT` + `FLAG_FULLSCREEN`) all missed, because the pixels were never the animation's; the alpha-hiding among them made it worse by blanking the one view that reliably paints its own rect. Those are removed, `FLAG_FULLSCREEN` included — it fought edge-to-edge insets for no gain.

| DR-193 | Play/pause reaches the player that is actually rendering. `toggle_playback`, `play` and `pause` all route to the webview element when `is_html5_active()`, which is `html5_playing.is_some()` — a flag written **only** by the element's own state reports and cleared only when it reports "stopped"/"idle" (or on a background-audio handoff). An element that went away without that final report, or webview-rendered music earlier in the same process, therefore left the flag set, and on Android's native video path every transport intent was emitted as a `ControlCommand` at an element that no longer existed: the pause button did nothing, from the on-screen tap and from the control bar alike, while seek and skip kept working because `player_seek_video` decides elsewhere. Whether it happened at all depended on what had played before, which is exactly what made it read as flaky rather than broken. `load_and_play` — the native load path, and the one the HTML5 video path deliberately avoids via `set_current_item` — now clears the flag, because loading into the native backend *is* the statement that native renders this item. Nothing is lost on the webview path: an element re-establishes its own authority the moment it reports again, so this is the existing "element is gone" semantics applied where it can be known directly rather than inferred from a report that may never arrive | Playback | UR-005, UR-003 | Done |

| DR-192 | Native video presents through a **TextureView**, not a SurfaceView. A SurfaceView renders on its own layer *outside* the app window and punches a transparent region through it; everything drawn above that hole — for us the entire Svelte UI in a transparent WebView — depends on that composition path, and Android's own graphics documentation states that "overlays do not currently work correctly with SurfaceView or TextureView". The consequences were four symptoms of one cause (DR-191): a frozen progress bar, controls that would not fade, rotation losing the transport UI, and overlays that lingered after the DOM removed them. A TextureView is an ordinary view whose frames are drawn as a texture in the window's normal rendering pass, so there is no second layer and no transparent region, and the WebView above composites like it would over any other view — which is why media3 offers `surface_type="texture_view"` and why it is the standard remedy for ExoPlayer overlay problems. The trade is accepted rather than hidden: TextureView costs more power and memory than SurfaceView and adds a frame of latency, but hardware decode through MediaCodec is untouched, so the reason native video exists survives it. `setVideoTextureView` installs ExoPlayer's own `SurfaceTextureListener`, so the old `SurfaceHolder.Callback` wiring is deleted rather than ported — adding a listener of ours would displace it and the video would never appear.

| DR-190 | The background-audio handoff can return to the native path.

On the native path there is no element, so `exitBackgroundAudioHandoff` completes, clears `handoffState`, blanks and reassigns `currentStreamUrl` to force an effect that will not run, and nothing ever restarts ExoPlayer: the user returns from the lockscreen to a dead player. This never showed while the path was opt-in and its picture was invisible anyway.

| DR-161 | Native video is the default, so picture-in-picture has a real surface. DR-160 makes PiP work on the HTML5 path, but that path can only ever shrink the *UI* into the PiP window; showing the video itself needs the SurfaceView behind the WebView, which is what `experimentalNativeVideo` gates. The flag now defaults to on when the user has never chosen, with an explicit stored choice still winning in both directions so anyone who turned it off keeps it off. This is a deliberate acceptance of risk: the flag existed because the native path was an unfinished spike, and `VideoPlayer.scrubRegression.test.ts` documents its history — a native init that flipped to HTML5 mid-lifecycle and left seeks going down one path while ExoPlayer played on another. Those tests pin the **flag-off** interim override (native response overridden to HTML5, backend stopped once), which the default no longer selects, so they now mock the flag off rather than inherit it: they still guard that path, but they no longer describe what ships.

| DR-159 | The background-audio handoff stops leaking its relative timeline. The handoff plays the episode as a *relative* stream — the audio-only URL is built with `StartTimeTicks` = the position the screen was locked at, so ExoPlayer's zero is the handoff point — and `background_audio_base` holds the offset that turns one back into a real position. The base was a **display-only** correction, applied in exactly two places (the lockscreen scrubber and the internal truncation maths) while every other consumer worked in the relative timeline treating the number as absolute. Each crossing threw away exactly `base` seconds, which is why the jump-back distance varied with where the screen was locked and read as random. Three crossings were live: progress reporting to Jellyfin sent the relative position every 30s, so the server was told `real − base` — and since DR-155 now mirrors the server's position back and refreshes on a cache hit, that regressed value returned as the resume point (lock at 40 min, listen to 90, reopen at 50); lockscreen seeks went out absolute and came back relative, against a chunked length-less transcode that cannot honour a seek at all, so a clamped seek landed at stream zero; and media3's own `seekToDefaultPosition`/`seekBack`/`seekForward` bypassed the `ForwardingPlayer` wrapper entirely, reaching the real ExoPlayer — `Util.handlePlayButtonAction` seeking an ended player to the relative zero being the same mechanism as DR-129's truncation bug through a different door. The fix converts **once, at the boundary**: `JellyTauPlayer`'s position tick adds the base (and shifts the duration with it, since the stream's own length is only what remains) before either `nativeOnPositionUpdate` or the lockscreen sees it, so position updates, progress reports, the frontend and the truncation check all speak the episode's timeline and none needs to know a handoff happened. The base is consequently *removed* from `claim_stream_resume`, `truncated_stream_resume_position` and `player_exit_background_audio`, where adding it now double-counts, and the lockscreen's `positionOffsetMs` addition goes with it (the field remains, read-only, as the tick's input). Inbound seeks go the other way: `seek_absolute` is the new boundary for every outside seek, re-opening the stream at the requested position via `resume_stream_at` when a handoff is active — which is what `onSeekTo` had claimed for months in a comment describing code that did not exist — and an ordinary seek otherwise. `seekToDefaultPosition` is swallowed rather than forwarded, since Rust already owns what "play after the stream ended" means and the `play()` that follows reaches it. Exit reads the position *before* clearing either base, or a tick landing in between hands back a relative one | Player | UR-040, UR-005, UR-025 | Done (pending device verification) |

| DR-158 | A watched toggle, on the episode row, the season header, the series and movie hero, and the Episode Focus View. Both halves of the backend already existed and neither had a caller: `mark_played` (`POST /PlayedItems`) was reachable only from the sync drain replaying rows the *reporter* had queued, and `clear_watch_history` (`DELETE /PlayedItems`) only from the destructive "erase this series' history" button — so the sole way to mark something watched was to play it. Jellyfin applies both recursively over a season or series, so the container case needs no client-side fan-out *online*. Offline it does: `storage_set_watched` writes the item **and its descendants** (drawn from `items` by `parent_id`/`album_id`/`season_id`/`series_id`, so an uncached id selects nothing and the statement no-ops instead of raising a foreign-key error), because otherwise marking a season watched with no server would tick the season and leave every episode inside it unwatched. It is deliberately separate from `storage_mark_played`, which stays the single-item "this finished playing" path that increments `play_count`. Un-marking clears the resume position as well as the flag, matching the server. `QueuedOp::MarkUnplayed` gives the queue the missing direction — pushing as `clear_watch_history` — so the toggle works offline both ways rather than only one; without it un-marking would have been the half that needed a connection. The button is an everyday toggle, so unlike `ClearHistoryButton` it does not confirm, and it holds an optimistic state because the caller's `watched` prop only catches up after a reload (a season means a round trip, during which the button would otherwise appear to ignore the tap) | UI | UR-073 | Done |

| DR-137 | Local media is served to the player over a loopback HTTP server, not the asset protocol. Tauri's `asset` protocol answers a request carrying no `Range` header by reading the whole file into memory, and only advertises `Accept-Ranges: bytes` from *inside* its range branch — so the first request never learns ranges exist and a multi-gigabyte body is attempted instead. Chromium abandoned it with `PIPELINE_ERROR_READ` after ~31s, which reached the user as "downloaded video does not play offline". Real HTTP on `127.0.0.1` is chosen over a custom URI scheme deliberately: range support becomes a property of the transport rather than depending on whether a platform's webview forwards `Range` to a custom scheme. No response ever exceeds a 4 MiB chunk and bodies stream from the file handle, so memory is bounded regardless of file size. Because **loopback is shared between apps on Android**, the server binds `127.0.0.1` only and every URL carries a random per-session token; paths are additionally confined to the app data directory, so a leaked URL cannot read outside it. This is stage 1 of making the server the single media origin — remote passthrough and download-while-watching are deliberately out of scope here | Playback | UR-071 | Done |

| DR-138 | Loopback is exempted from Android's cleartext ban, and nothing else is. Release builds set `usesCleartextTraffic="false"`, so the webview's request to the local media server (DR-137) was rejected by network security policy before any I/O — `<video>` failed in the same millisecond as `loadstart`, with `NETWORK_NO_SOURCE` and no server-side log at all, which is why it looked identical to a missing file. A `network-security-config` resource permits cleartext for `127.0.0.1` only and keeps `base-config cleartextTrafficPermitted="false"`, so a remote server must still be HTTPS; this is deliberately not a blanket opt-in. The manifest attribute is ignored once the config is present, so the config is the single authority. `sync-android-sources.sh` also had to learn to copy `res/xml`, which it skipped — the manifest references the resource, so a missed copy fails the resource link rather than degrading quietly | Security | UR-071 | Done |

| DR-093 | Traceability coverage gate derives its requirement denominators from `requirements.md` at run time rather than hardcoded literals: `countDefinedRequirements` counts an ID only where it leads a markdown table row (ignoring the "Traces To" column and prose) and deduplicates IDs listed both in the definition tables and in the §3 traceability matrix; `computeCoverage` reports the *intersection* of traced and defined IDs so an ID traced in code but absent from `requirements.md` is surfaced as `orphaned` instead of inflating the ratio past 100%. UT/IT test identifiers are excluded as a separate taxonomy.

| DR-210 | Thumbnail cache writes are confined to the cache directory. The filename was built from `item_id`, `image_type` and `tag`, but only `tag` was sanitised — and `Path::join` neither folds `..` nor keeps the base when handed an absolute path, so a value arriving verbatim from server JSON decided where a file landed. The tag's existing rule (non-alphanumerics become `_`) now applies to all three parts, and the resolved path is checked with `starts_with(cache_dir)` at the point of use. The database keeps the raw key and the resolved path, so lookups still match and pre-existing rows still resolve. Not exploitable as shipped — server URLs must be HTTPS and Android blocks cleartext, so the id comes from a server the user chose to trust — the value is making the write path consistent with how caller-supplied paths are handled elsewhere | Storage | UR-012 | Done |

| DR-211 | Download paths are confined to the download root. `file_path` and `target_dir` reached `PathBuf::join` unchecked from the frontend, and `mark_download_completed` persisted a caller-supplied path later passed to `remove_file`. A correct sanitiser already existed and `download_item_and_start` used it, but `download_item` is itself a command accepting `file_path` raw, so the guard was bypassable rather than absent — the fix moves it inside instead of adding a second one. Sanitising is **per path component**: whole-string sanitising would rewrite `downloads/x.mp3` to `downloads_x.mp3` and relocate every existing download. Confinement happens after the join, since a join with an absolute second half discards the root | Downloads | UR-011 | Done |

| DR-212 | Query and URL construction bind or encode their inputs. Three sites interpolated caller-supplied values directly: the offline `get_items` item-type filter built `IN ('a','b')` by string formatting, `build_get_items_endpoint` wrote `ParentId`/`IncludeItemTypes`/`SortBy`/`SortOrder` into a URL unencoded, and `player_set_volume` accepted NaN and out-of-range floats. Each is a *consistency* defect rather than a novel one — the same file already did it correctly a few lines away (parameter placeholders in `search`, `urlencoding::encode` for genres, `clamp` in every player backend). List separators stay unencoded and encoding is per element, because Jellyfin splits these parameters on the comma | Repository | UR-007, UR-065 | Done |

**Issue**: The Linux (MPV) and Android (ExoPlayer) playback backends have diverged in feature implementation and architecture patterns.

**Symptoms**:

- Audio settings (crossfade, gapless playback, volume normalization) work on Linux but not on Android
|
||||
**Symptoms** (as first recorded; the audio half is now closed — see Status):
|
||||
- Audio settings (gapless playback, volume normalization, equalizer) worked on Linux but not on Android
|
||||
- Position update frequency differs between platforms (Linux: 250ms polling, Android: on-demand callbacks)
|
||||
- Thread safety models differ (Linux: `Arc<Mutex<>>`, Android: global `OnceLock` statics)
|
||||
|
||||
**Root Cause**:
|
||||
The `PlayerBackend` trait defines optional audio settings methods with default empty implementations. The Linux `MpvBackend` overrides these with full MPV property commands, but `ExoPlayerBackend` uses the defaults.
|
||||
The `PlayerBackend` trait defines optional audio settings methods with default empty implementations. `MpvBackend` overrode these with MPV property commands; `ExoPlayerBackend` took the silent defaults, so the Settings › Audio panel rendered controls that did nothing on Android. `ExoPlayerBackend` now overrides them too, but the trait default is still a silent `Ok(())` — a backend that omits the method still reports success rather than failing loudly.
