A recoverable player error meant "playback is over": the frontend's error
handler stopped the player unconditionally, so a wifi blip killed the
track. Android already decides in its JNI callback, but MpvBackend is
constructed before PlayerController exists, so its event thread has no
controller to ask.
So MPV reports the failure and the frontend echoes it into the new
player_recover_stream command — the same shape as PlaybackEnded ->
player_on_playback_ended, keeping the decision in Rust. The command
re-opens the stream where it stopped, with the existing attempt budget
and backoff, and returns whether it handled it; only a false answer
falls through to the old stop path.
Android now reports the errors it has already declined as
*unrecoverable*, so the echo never asks the same question twice.

Search's instant leg read only downloaded items, so with no downloads it
returned nothing and every keystroke fell through to a full Recursive=true
server query. It now reads the whole synced catalog through the same
availability CTE get_items uses, gated on the same include_catalog_browse
flag so search and browse cannot diverge. (UR-065, DR-108)
Also fixes three defects found while confirming that:
- items_fts grew by a full duplicate index every catalog pass. INSERT OR
REPLACE fires no AFTER DELETE trigger without recursive_triggers, so the
old index row was orphaned, and a TEXT PRIMARY KEY meant the replacement
took a fresh rowid and inserted a second entry. Now a real upsert, with
migration 021 rebuilding existing indexes. (DR-110)
- DELETE FROM items existed nowhere, so server-side deletions never
propagated. Adds a post-crawl mark-and-sweep, scoped to crawled types,
skipping downloaded items, and refusing to run after a partial crawl
because items.parent_id cascades. (DR-110)
- The index omitted MusicArtist, Playlist and People, which search groups
results by. Adds them plus people_fts (migration 022). (DR-111)
Re-indexing moves from a frontend startup call to a Rust background task
with a 6h TTL, so a long session no longer searches a stale catalog and a
restart no longer forces a crawl regardless of freshness. (DR-109, IR-030)
Downloads gain a lifetime tier. Eviction selected every completed row by
age with no download_source filter, so hitting the storage limit deleted
the oldest download -- typically one saved deliberately for offline -- to
make room for a precached track. It now reclaims only 'auto' rows, and
expired ones are reclaimed first, before live cache is evicted.
(DR-126, DR-127)
Downloaded video and audio-only handoffs now play from disk instead of
streaming; the video path had never consulted downloads at all. No
transcode is involved: MPV runs video=no and ExoPlayer has no surface for
an Audio item. (DR-123 in part, DR-128)
FTS queries are built as quoted phrases so apostrophes, hyphens and
slashes are data rather than operator syntax, and the item-type filter is
bound rather than interpolated.

Includes concurrently-developed favourites browsing and background-audio
stream-end handling; the two workstreams share offline.rs, lib.rs and
online.rs, so no subset of files builds independently.
An episode played audio-only while the app was backgrounded stalled at the
episode boundary instead of advancing, and ExoPlayer parked in STATE_ENDED —
where any later play intent (lockscreen, headset, Bluetooth reconnect) replays
the ended item, surfacing as the episode randomly restarting.
End-of-playback is dispatched from two places and they disagreed. The Android
JNI callback carried the background-audio branch but can never reach it:
load_and_play sets EndReason::NewTrackLoaded at every load and nothing clears
it, so the first real end consumes it and the decision is always Stop. The call
that actually decides is the frontend's echo of the resulting PlaybackEnded into
player_on_playback_ended — and that path had no background-audio case at all, so
it started a countdown whose advance is a webview goto() that cannot start audio
while backgrounded.
Both dispatchers now share PlayerController::auto_advance_to_next_episode, so
they cannot drift apart again.
The handoff base offset moves from the BackgroundAudioOffset Tauri state onto
the controller, and the advance clears it: the next episode's stream is built
without StartTimeTicks, so its timeline is already absolute and a stale base
made player_exit_background_audio return old_base + position_in_new_episode.
Unreachable until the advance actually worked.
Tests (red before the fix):

- test_advance_to_next_episode_audio_only_clears_handoff_base
Bump to 0.2.9.
Hand video playback off to a native audio-only stream when the app is
backgrounded or locked, with no on-device video decode (UR-040). Adds
player_enter/exit_background_audio commands, an audio-only stream URL
for video items across the repository layer, and the frontend handoff
state machine wired into VideoPlayer. Includes accompanying
repository/offline/player refactoring and regenerates the traceability
matrix.
- 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.
- 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.
