Renumbers the mosaic's requirement IDs out of the way of the download work
that landed on master in parallel: it had already claimed DR-163/DR-164 and
UT-162, so the mosaic layout is now DR-172, the library favourites scope
DR-173, and its composition test UT-167.
Note for the download branch: its UT-162..UT-165 rows trace to DR-163..DR-166,
none of which are defined in requirements.md — that branch defined DR-167..171
instead. Those references are orphaned and want a look; nothing here touches
them.
The library overview and the home shortcut strip showed artwork of three
different shapes — square music covers, 16:9 library backdrops, 2:3 posters —
in grids that pick one box and crop everything to it. The home strip said so
in a comment: it forced `aspect="video"` on music libraries so the row would
line up, which lined it up by cutting the covers down.
Both surfaces are now justified mosaics: rows share one height and each tile is
as wide as its own artwork. `layoutMosaic` is a pure module — it packs tiles
until the height needed to fill the container drops to the target, justifies the
row by absorbing the rounding remainder into its widest tile, and deliberately
leaves the last row unstretched so one leftover tile does not inflate into a
banner. The component supplies only what the DOM knows: the measured container
width, and the artwork's *decoded* aspect ratio (via a new `onNaturalSize` on
CachedImage), committed in one debounced batch so the grid does not reshuffle
once per image as artwork lands.
Favourites gain a tile per category beside the library it belongs to, alongside
the existing cross-library entry. Which collection type maps to which category
is Jellyfin vocabulary, so it is derived in Rust — `SearchScope::for_collection_type`,
stamped onto every `Library` by a new constructor and carried over as an optional
`favoritesScope`. Deriving it in Svelte would have rebuilt the exact leak
`SearchScope::item_types` was extracted to close. A category shows one tile
however many libraries share it, and a library kind favourites do not carve up
(Live TV, channels, books) gets none.
Also corrects the requirements-count test, which the UR-074 commit left one
behind.

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.
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.
Specs: docs/specs/catalog-index-search.md,
docs/specs/read-through-media-cache.md
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.
Typing in the desktop header search bar ran library.search() in place and
relied on /library rendering the results inline. On every other /library/**
route nothing rendered them, so the search bar looked broken: results were
fetched and never shown.
Make /search the single surface that renders results. The header bar becomes a
navigator — it hands the query and route-derived scope to /search via ?q= and
?scope=, which seed the page and run the search on arrival. The inline result
block and the header's scope chips are removed; the chips live on /search,
which owns the results. The empty `all` scope is omitted from the URL, and
typing while already on /search does not push a history entry per keystroke.
Migrate catalog MediaItem consumers from stringly item.type ("Audio",
"MusicAlbum", …) to the neutral item.kind enum across all classification
logic: home, library detail, player routing, artist/person/related/genre
components, tv store.
Model refinements found during migration (each a real distinction the
flat item_type collapsed):
- MediaKind::LiveChannel — live TV (playable, non-seekable) vs
- MediaKind::ChannelItem — channel VOD leaf (playable, seekable) vs
- MediaKind::Channel — channel container (drill-in).
TvChannel->LiveChannel, non-folder ChannelFolderItem->ChannelItem.
RelatedItemsSection and GenreTags props migrated from Jellyfin type
strings to MediaKind; MediaKind re-exported from api/types.
Deferred by design: display {item.type} text, ResultsCounter labels,
Person.type (role), stream.type (phase 4), and all runTimeTicks/tick math
(coupled to playbackPositionTicks — phase 3). Old fields still dual-carried
so nothing breaks.
Rust 456 + 7 domain tests, frontend 644 tests, check clean.
Navigation:
- Split conflated "back" into navigateUp (deterministic route parent) and a
history-safe navigateBack that tracks in-app depth via afterNavigate instead
of history.length. Fixes the resume-from-background trap where a stale WebView
stack left the header arrow stuck on the current page.
- /library self-corrects for music/tv/movies (which have dedicated landing
pages): a leftover currentLibrary no longer forces the inline content-list
view, so "up"/back shows the libraries overview. Live TV / channels / other
types still render inline.
Startup (unblock first paint):
- auth.initialize() no longer awaits security-status, player-config, or session
verification before flipping isInitialized. These run fire-and-forget after the
session is restored, so the library overview paints without waiting on several
serial IPC round-trips.
Versioning / CI:
- tauri.conf.json + package.json aligned to 0.0.15 (the tag series had drifted to
0.1.0, whose formula-derived versionCode 1000 outran the v0.0.x tags).
- Release workflow now pins a monotonic Android versionCode
(1000 + major*10000 + minor*100 + patch) so tagged builds never downgrade
below prior installs and always increase in semver order.
Tests: navigation (4), auth (29), playbackMode (23) green.

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).
- Convert music category buttons from <button> to native <a> links for better Android compatibility
- Convert artist/album nested buttons in TrackList to <a> links to fix HTML validation issues
- Add event handlers with proper stopPropagation to maintain click behavior
- Increase library overview card sizes from medium to large (50% bigger)
- Increase thumbnail sizes in list view from 10x10 to 16x16
- Add console logging for debugging click events on mobile
- Remove preventDefault() handlers that were blocking Android touch events
These changes resolve navigation issues on Android devices where buttons weren't responding to taps. Native <a> links provide better cross-platform compatibility and allow SvelteKit to handle navigation more reliably.
