The lockscreen controls drifted out of sync, especially while casting, and
couldn't control remote playback. Two media sessions were competing (a Media3
MediaSession driving transport vs a MediaSessionCompat driving the notification),
position was only pushed on play/pause so the scrubber froze mid-track, and
remote mode showed stale local metadata with dead buttons.
- Make MediaSessionCompat the single source of truth; route all transport
commands (both the Compat callback and the Media3 wrappedPlayer) through Rust
via nativeOnMediaCommand instead of touching ExoPlayer directly.
- Push position on every 250ms tick via a lightweight updatePlaybackPosition,
and report 0.0 playback speed when paused so Android stops extrapolating.
- Mirror the remote session's now-playing onto the lockscreen from the native
session poller (works while the screen is locked, unlike WebView timers) via
a new player::update_lockscreen_metadata JNI bridge.
- Make MediaSessionHandler mode-aware: in remote mode forward play/pause/next/
prev/seek to the remote Jellyfin session; Stop while casting emits
RemoteDisconnectRequested, which the frontend handles by transferring to local.

- music landing: diverse per-genre album sliders (online counts /
offline wide-probe fallback) and home-screen library shortcuts
- add ArtistLinks component and shared navigation/genreDiversity utils
- player/playback-mode refinements across Rust and frontend
Library screens:
- Add dedicated music, TV, and movie landing pages (hero banner +
horizontal carousels) backed by new music/tv/movies stores.
- Route tvshows libraries to /library/tv; surface rediscover ("haven't
listened to in a while") albums via a new repository method across
online/offline/hybrid repos plus the repository_get_rediscover_albums
command.
- Add an A-Z jump bar for long alphabetically-sorted lists, with grid
index anchors in LibraryGrid/LibraryListView/TrackList.
- Filter the "Podcasts" folder out of music library queries.
Downloads:
- Add a backend queue pump: enqueue_download / enqueue_video_downloads
persist the resolved stream URL + target dir on each row (migration
017), and the pump starts up to max_concurrent and drains the rest
automatically as slots free, instead of the frontend silently dropping
items past the concurrency limit. Album/series/season buttons now
enqueue rather than calling start_download directly.
Other fixes:
- Hybrid search now returns instant cache results and pushes the merged
cache+server union via a request-id-tagged search-event, so superseded
queries can't clobber fresher results.
- URL-encode SearchTerm / genres / item types in online repo requests.
- Android: pause on audio-becoming-noisy (headphone/BT disconnect).
The release-notes echo lines used unescaped backticks, which the shell ran
as command substitution; their output leaked control characters into
release_notes.md, so jq failed with 'Invalid string: control characters ...
must be escaped' when building the release payload.
- Escape the backticks so they are literal markdown.
- Remove emoji from the release-notes content (plain ASCII headings).
- Handle an already-existing release (HTTP 409) by reusing its id for
asset upload instead of failing.
The offline/online switch was janky because two independent systems decided
"online" and never communicated:
- ConnectivityMonitor owned is_server_reachable (drove the UI banner) but
learned reachability only from a standalone /System/Info/Public ping loop
and from auth/login calls.
- HybridRepository served all real data by racing cache-vs-server but never
read or wrote reachability.
So the banner reflected a side-channel poller, not the system the user actually
experienced: a successful ping could read "online" while authenticated data
calls 401'd or timed out, and three different timeout regimes (5s ping / 30s
data / 100ms cache race) flapped against each other.
Unify into a single source of truth:
- Extract a cheap, cloneable ConnectivityReporter that owns all reachability
transitions and event emission.
- OnlineRepository reports the outcome of every server request to the reporter,
classified via RepoError: Ok/Authentication/NotFound/Server => reachable
(the server answered), Network => offline candidate, Database/Offline =>
ignored (not a server signal).
- Time-window debounce (OFFLINE_CONFIRM_WINDOW = 5s): flip offline only after
sustained network failure; recover instantly on the first success.
- Demote the ping loop to an offline-only recovery probe (no online polling;
real traffic is the signal when online).
- Frontend: navigator.onLine is now advisory (triggers a recheck instead of
forcing offline); removed the dead markReachable/markUnreachable store methods.
Docs updated (README, 07-connectivity, 03-data-flow, 02-svelte-frontend) to
describe the new model and fix pre-existing drift (HTTP client is 30s timeout +
5s ping, not the documented 10s/base_url).
Tests: 12 connectivity tests (debounce, instant recovery, RepoError
classification through report_outcome). Full suite: 398 Rust + 384 frontend
passing, svelte-check clean.

JellyTauPlayer.kt references com.dtourolle.jellytau.VideoOverlayManager,
but the file existed only in the gitignored gen/android dir, so it
survived locally but vanished in CI (which regenerates gen/android via
'tauri android init'). sync-android-sources.sh copies top-level *.kt
from src-tauri/android, so adding it there gets it synced into the build.
Fixes: 'Unresolved reference: VideoOverlayManager' in
:app:compileUniversalReleaseKotlin.

Tauri CLI requires '--apk true'; bare '--apk' fails with
"a value is required for '--apk <APK>'". The release workflow
only reached this step now that checkout/container issues are fixed.

- Standardize on bun: remove package-lock.json, add packageManager field,
gitignore non-bun lockfiles, fix stray npm install in android:build:clean
- Remove stale build logs and empty dirs (src-tauri/plugins, docs/tickets)
- Move android-dev.sh into scripts/
- Consolidate root docs into docs/ (docker/builder under docs/build/);
move the architecture overview to docs/architecture/README.md
- Extract Requirements Specification from README into docs/requirements.md
and slim README down to a project intro + docs index
- Fix internal references to the moved files
Remove unused imports and a dead test helper, and strengthen tests that
held unused bindings/fields so the values are actually exercised:
- drop unused imports (HttpConfig, MediaType, std::io::Write)
- remove unused TestEventEmitter::clear helper
- replace meaningless size_of asserts with real empty-manager checks
- assert on MockTrack.name in sorting tests
src-tauri/.cargo/config.toml hardcoded absolute NDK paths under
/home/dtourolle, which only exist on the dev laptop. In CI this made
ring's build script fail to find aarch64-linux-android34-clang. Tauri
derives the linker/CC paths from NDK_HOME automatically during
'android build', so the file is unnecessary there. Untrack it and
gitignore it; local dev copies are preserved on disk.
Set ANDROID_HOME/NDK_HOME/NDK_VERSION at the job level and add a step
that installs the NDK via sdkmanager when missing, so the Android init
step no longer fails when the builder image lacks NDK_HOME.
Replace the remaining ~155 untyped invoke() calls across stores, services,
components, and routes with the generated commands.* wrappers from
$lib/api/bindings, so every IPC call is compile-time-checked against the
command signatures.
- Register repository_get_subtitle_url and repository_get_video_download_url
in specta_builder() and the invoke_handler; regenerate bindings.ts.
- Source duplicated wire types (AutoplaySettings, CacheConfig, Session,
ConnectivityStatus, audio/video settings, etc.) from bindings.
- Fix two bugs surfaced by the typed wrappers:
- VideoDownloadButton passed an un-awaited Promise as the stream URL.
- setAutoplaySettings omitted the required userId argument.
- Update unit tests asserting the old invoke(name, args) shape.
- Remove the five param-naming guard tests; the compiler and codegen now
enforce what they checked.
svelte-check: 0 errors. vitest: green. cargo test --lib: green.
- online.rs: on Linux, advertise only WebView-decodable codecs (h264 video;
aac/mp3/opus/vorbis/flac audio) in PlaybackInfo so Jellyfin transcodes
HEVC/AV1/VP9/etc. to h264 HLS for the WebKitGTK <video> element.
- player: on Linux, don't load video into MPV (no embedded window — it would
start a redundant decode the frontend immediately stops). Add
PlayerController::set_current_item to keep queue/UI/remote-transfer state in
sync without loading the item into the playback backend.
Casting: restore camelCase serialization on SessionInfo/NowPlayingItem/PlayState
(container rename_all = "camelCase" + per-field PascalCase serde aliases so Jellyfin
PascalCase still deserializes). Bindings and the existing frontend are camelCase
again — casting works with no frontend session changes.
Downloads: migrate DownloadButton.svelte and downloads.ts to the typed
commands.downloadItemAndStart / downloadItem / downloadVideo wrappers (request
objects), matching the bundled backend signatures.
Tooling:
- Enable tauri-specta ErrorHandlingMode::Throw so commands.* return Promise<T>
and throw (drop-in for invoke()).
- Disambiguate specta name collisions: player MediaItem/MediaSource ->
PlayerMediaItem/PlayerMediaSource, auth ServerInfo -> AuthServerInfo.
- Regenerate bindings.ts; svelte-check passes (0 errors).
Tailwind v4 auto-scans all source files; the 3000-line generated bindings.ts has
no CSS classes and a large generated TS file can confuse class detection. Add an
@source not exclusion.
The tauri-specta `.export(...)` call ran inside run() on every debug app start
and tried to write `../src/lib/api/bindings.ts`, a path that doesn't exist on a
device — `.expect()` panicked at startup, crashing the app instantly on Android.
Bindings are generated by the `export_typescript_bindings` test instead.
- Extract specta_builder() so run() and a #[test] share one command list.
- Add export_typescript_bindings test that writes src/lib/api/bindings.ts.
- Configure the TS exporter bigint behavior to Number (matches existing frontend).
- Commit the generated bindings.ts (typed commands.* wrappers + all DTO types).
- Add #[specta::specta] to all 201 #[tauri::command] functions.
- Derive specta::Type on all IPC DTOs (repository/types, settings, player/storage/
download command DTOs, player enums, jellyfin SessionInfo/NowPlayingItem/PlayState,
ThumbnailCacheStats, DownloadInfo, CacheConfig, etc.).
- Replace tauri::generate_handler! with a tauri_specta::Builder + collect_commands!
in lib.rs (exports bindings.ts in debug builds).
Two contract changes required by specta constraints (frontend migration follows):
- specta caps command arity at 10 args: download_item_and_start / download_item /
download_video now take a single request struct (params bundled, body unchanged
via destructuring).
- specta can't parse split serde rename_all: SessionInfo/NowPlayingItem/PlayState
switched to rename_all = "PascalCase" (Jellyfin deserialization preserved; these
now serialize PascalCase to the frontend).
cargo check --lib is clean (0 errors). Frontend migration to bindings.ts is the next step.
- Move commands/download.rs to commands/download/mod.rs.
- Extract pin/unpin/is_pinned into download/pinning.rs.
- Extract smart-cache stats/config + album recommendation commands into
download/smart_cache.rs.
- Re-exported via pub use so command names stay at commands::download::*;
invoke_handler unchanged, all tests pass.
- commands/player/timers.rs: sleep-timer + autoplay commands (8).
- commands/player/session.rs: media session get/dismiss commands (2).
- Make create_media_item and get_player_status pub(super) so the submodules can
reuse them. mod.rs shrinks from ~2720 to ~2229 lines; invoke_handler unchanged.
- Move commands/player.rs to commands/player/mod.rs (folder module).
- Extract the 5 self-contained remote-session control commands
(remote_play_on_session/send_command/session_seek/set_volume/toggle_mute)
into commands/player/remote.rs, re-exported via `pub use remote::*` so the
command names remain at commands::player::* and the invoke_handler is unchanged.
No behavior change; establishes the submodule split pattern for the oversized
command file.
