feat(playback): let Rust decide what stream to play, and say so
Playing a video meant asking the server to re-encode it, always. That
decision was made nowhere and written down nowhere, so whoever needed it
re-derived it downstream — the player worked out whether it had been handed
a playlist by looking for ".m3u8" in the URL, in two places. A viewer paid
for a transcode of a file their device could have played untouched, and the
app could not tell them which it was.
One negotiation now produces one self-describing StreamSelection — direct
play, remux or transcode; over a playlist, a plain HTTP file, or a local one
— and every renderer consumes that same answer.
Measured against the development server (Jellyfin 10.11.5), 400 items
sampled for codec mix and 40 put through a real PlaybackInfo negotiation
per profile:
Linux / WebKitGTK (h264 only, 2ch) 3/40 — 7% direct play
Android / ExoPlayer (hevc, ac3/eac3, 6ch) 34/40 — 85% direct play
The library is ~80% hevc, which is why the two diverge so hard. The payoff
is overwhelmingly Android, where 85% of plays were starting a transcode
nobody needed. Linux stays near 7% until libmpv decodes the picture — the
h264-only profile is a WebKitGTK constraint, not a JellyTau choice.
DR-219 StreamSelection: url + tagged Transport (hls/progressive/localFile)
+ PlaybackKind (directPlay/directStream/transcode) + the negotiated
rendition + this source's ladder + a needs_transcoding flag derived
in Rust so the rule is answered once. Both enums are serde-tagged
so the frontend matches a discriminant, not a substring. The paths
that never negotiate get the same shape from Rust rather than
assembling one — media_local_selection for a downloaded file,
LiveStreamInfo.transport for a live channel — so there is no second
place where a transport is decided.
DR-220 The ceiling becomes two levels: a durable device default (Settings,
persisted) and a per-playback override the in-player picker sets.
The picker had called itself a "this film, this connection" control
since it was written but wrote the process-wide default, so dropping
one awkward film to 2 Mbps silently capped every video played
afterwards for the rest of the process, with Settings still showing
the old value. The override is cleared whenever playback moves to a
new item, which stops it surviving into an autoplayed next episode.
effective_streaming_quality() is the single resolution point.
DR-221 The quality picker is filled from what this media source can offer.
Rust marks a rung exceeds_source when its ceiling is at or above the
source's own bitrate — such a rung is another way to spell Original
— and the frontend does not draw those. Original is never marked; a
source whose bitrate the server does not report marks nothing, which
keeps every rung offered.
DR-222 Direct play and direct stream are negotiated, with two client-side
overrides on top because the server's answer is right about the file
and wrong about what this app will do with it: undecodable audio
(Jellyfin 10.11.5 honours a DirectPlayProfile's container and video
codec but ignores its audio codec, so it offers direct play for an
E-AC-3 track the webview renders in silence) and a viewer-pinned
audio track the file does not default to. A direct stream is a remux
and is deliberately not counted as transcoding.
DR-223 Dropped on measurement, not deferred. A master playlist from this
server carries exactly one EXT-X-STREAM-INF: Jellyfin builds it from
the single rendition the request asked for rather than publishing a
ladder. So there is no adaptation for hls.js to be preserving and
none mpv would lose — the claim that there was, in
playback-backend-unification.md, does not hold. Recorded rather than
deleted because it is a measurement: a server that does publish a
ladder would change the answer.
DR-224 Every backend consumes the same selection. The queue item carries
the transport, so player_seek_video picks its seek strategy from the
backend's decision instead of the last stream_url.contains(".m3u8")
in the codebase. Items queued by a path that never negotiated carry
None and fall back to needs_transcoding, which is exact rather than
a guess because every transcode this app requests is HLS (DR-140).
The frontend loader decision moves to streamTransport.ts so it can be
tested: the two cases that pin it are the ones that failed against the old
implementation — a progressive stream whose URL contains ".m3u8" must not
get an HLS loader, and an HLS stream whose URL contains none must.
Also verified the URL the direct-play branch builds actually serves playable
bytes: 206, video/mp4, valid ISO-BMFF, and a mid-file range works, so
seeking a direct play works.
The spec is folded into docs/architecture/{01,02,03} and deleted, per the
rule that docs/specs holds only work that has not shipped. DR-121 leaves
read-through-media-cache.md with a pointer; that spec keeps its capture half.
Not verified: real playback on a device. Direct play changes what actually
gets played, and neither fixtures nor curl prove the WebKitGTK and ExoPlayer
paths render it.

chore(format): run prettier over src/ and scripts/
Formatting was configured but never enforced: `bun run format:check` reported 199 unformatted files and ran in no workflow and in no git hook, so .prettierrc (printWidth 100, trailing commas) described an intention rather than the tree. This is the one-time sweep that makes the check gateable. Whitespace and token-reflow only -- no behavioural change: `bun run check` reports 0 errors and all 1053 frontend tests pass before and after. Kept out of every other commit on purpose. A 199-file diff mixed with real changes is unreviewable, and the next commit turns format:check into a hard CI gate so this cannot silently accumulate again. |

DR-161 flipped experimentalNativeVideo on by default so picture-in-picture could shrink a real video surface. On a device that shipped sound with a blank screen. The decode path was never at fault. Logcat shows ExoPlayer running and feeding a live SurfaceView with an active BufferQueue. The compositing was: the SurfaceView sits behind the WebView, and the step that clears the opaque layers above it never took effect — `WebView transparent = false` is logged, `= true` never appears. The video was rendering correctly the whole time, behind an opaque page. This is precisely the defect the flag existed to contain; VideoPlayer.scrubRegression.test.ts had already recorded that "the native SurfaceView has never been visible through the webview". Enabling it by default shipped a verified decode path on top of an unverified display path. Reverting costs nothing that matters: PiP does not depend on it — DR-160 drives PiP from the WebView <video> — and working video outranks PiP showing a native surface. The flag stays in Settings, now described as incomplete rather than as a performance win, so anyone helping test it still can. Fixing the compositing is the prerequisite for trying this default again (DR-172). |

docs(player): allocate UR-074/DR-162 for the streaming bitrate cap
🏗️ Build and Test JellyTau / Run Tests (push) Failing after 5m10s
🏗️ Build and Test JellyTau / Android Compile Check (push) Skipped
Publish Documentation / Build & publish docs to gitea-pages (push) Successful in 5m27s

The feature shipped tagged against DR-160, which a parallel session had claimed for picture-in-picture in the meantime. Renumbered to DR-162 across the Rust and frontend TRACES comments (the PiP tags in VideoPlayer.svelte, pictureInPicture.ts and nativeVideo.ts keep DR-160) and regenerated bindings.ts. Adds the requirement rows the tags point at: UR-074 for the user need, and DR-162 covering why the cap has to reach the PlaybackInfo negotiation and not only the transcode URL, why the ceiling is process-wide, and why the Settings default persists while the in-player override does not. Notes that this gives UR-070 its resume-at-the-same-point mechanism while the server-offered rendition list that requirement also asks for stays proposed. UT-156/157 record what the tests pin. docs/specs/streaming-bitrate-cap.md carries the layer assignment — the step definitions, the video/audio split, the resolution pairing and the reload decision are all Rust; the frontend holds a serde token and the labels it was handed. TRACES: UR-074 | DR-162 | UT-156, UT-157 |

fix(ui,player): scroll restore, immersive fullscreen, watched toggle, handoff timeline, PiP
Batch of reported bugs and enhancements. UI - Pages no longer inherit the previous page's scroll position (DR-156, UR-072). The shell keeps its scrollers alive across navigation by design, so the element never remounts and its scrollTop survived the route change; SvelteKit restores window scroll, which this app never uses. ScrollMemory records the offset per route and per container: forward moves reset to the top, Back restores where the route was left. - Season header stacks on narrow screens, and the title span gets min-w-0 so it actually truncates instead of overflowing under the action buttons. - Favourites gets a labelled tile at the head of the library grid rather than only an unlabelled heart icon in the header. Playback - Full-screen video on Android hides the system bars (DR-157, UR-066). requestFullscreen() cannot touch the Activity window from inside a WebView, so the control did nothing visible while the bars stayed painted over the video. ImmersiveModeBridge hides them, restored on exit, Escape and teardown. - Background-audio handoff stops leaking its relative timeline (DR-159). background_audio_base was a display-only correction applied in two places while progress reports to Jellyfin, the frontend and media3's own seeks all worked in the relative timeline treating it as absolute — each crossing losing exactly `base` seconds. The conversion now happens once, in the position tick, and inbound seeks resolve through seek_absolute, which re-opens the stream at the requested position because the handoff transcode cannot seek. - Picture-in-picture works on the path that actually plays video (DR-160). canEnterPip demanded a native ExoPlayer surface, but that path is behind a flag defaulting to off, so PiP could never engage. It now accepts the WebView <video> too, keeping the WebView visible and routing play/pause to the element. - Native video is now the default so PiP has a real surface (DR-161). The scrub-regression tests pinned the flag-off path implicitly; they now mock it off explicitly. The native scrub/seek path is not covered by the suite and needs device verification. Watched state - Watched toggle on the episode row, season header, series and movie hero, and the Episode Focus View (DR-158, UR-073). Both backend halves already existed with no caller. storage_set_watched covers a container's episodes so the toggle is honest offline, and QueuedOp::MarkUnplayed gives the sync queue the missing direction. Release - Fix the Android versionCode floor (set-version.sh). v0.5.2 shipped code 5002 under an earlier minor*1000 scheme, but the current minor*100 formula yields 1502 for that version and 1503 for 0.5.3 — so every 0.5.x release built from it was an un-installable downgrade for anyone already on v0.5.2. Widened to 10000 + major*1000000 + minor*1000 + patch (0.5.3 -> 15003). - Bump to 0.5.3. |

On Android, dragging or tapping the progress bar moved the thumb but playback stayed where it was. Two separate defects, both touch-only, which is why the mouse-driven scrub tests never caught either. 1. Gesture hijack. DR-098 taught handleTouchStart to ignore touches that land on a control, but handleTouchMove kept running. It measures against touchStartX/Y, which that early return leaves at the PREVIOUS gesture's values, so a seek-bar drag produced a huge bogus vertical delta: read as a brightness swipe, it dimmed the screen to the 0.3 floor and fired a spurious play/pause "correction" mid-drag. A gesture is now latched at touchstart (playerGestureActive) and touchmove ignores anything unlatched — re-checking the move target cannot recover a start point that was never recorded. 2. Commit signal. The seek was committed only from `change`, which Android's WebView does not reliably fire for a touch interaction on a range input, so the thumb moved to the tapped position and no seek ever ran. touchend/mouseup now commit too; `input` arms a one-shot latch so whichever release signal arrives first commits and the other is a no-op. seekRelative shares the same commitSeek entry point instead of fabricating a synthetic change event. Tests drive the slider with real touch events (UT-089, UT-090) and fail against the pre-fix component. |
