Stopping a remote session left Android stuck on the remote volume slider
with no way back to the device speaker.
Two causes:
1. `player_stop`'s remote branch sent "Stop" to the session and returned
without touching the playback mode, so the manager stayed in Remote.
It now drops to Idle, mirroring what the local branch already does.
2. Volume routing was torn down at a single call site
(`transfer_to_local_inner`), so every *other* exit from remote mode
leaked the Android VolumeProviderCompat. Routing is now derived from
the transition inside `set_mode`: entering remote attaches control,
any exit from remote hands it back to the local media stream. This
also covers the frontend `disconnect()` path (Remote -> Idle) and the
local-playback-start paths (Remote -> Local).
Adds a `RemoteVolumeControl` trait so the routing rule is unit-testable
off-device — the real implementation is Android JNI. Tests cover
remote->idle, remote->local, remote->remote (re-arms, never releases),
and that local/idle transitions leave routing untouched.

Rust: PlayerMediaItem and MergedMediaItem gain image_id (dual-carry),
populated from primary_image_tag at every construction/conversion site.
Regenerated bindings.
Frontend: all catalog + player + merged readers now use imageId. The
NowPlayingItem->MediaItem bridge (player.ts) properly maps the remote
session's Jellyfin fields (Type, runTimeTicks, primaryImageTag) onto the
neutral kind/durationMs/imageId. Types that are genuinely out of scope
(Person, NowPlayingItem, PlayItemRequest) keep primaryImageTag.
Rust 456, frontend 644, check clean.
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.
- 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
- 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.
Workstream A — poison-tolerant locking:
- Add utils/lock.rs with MutexSafe/RwLockSafe extension traits that recover a
poisoned std::sync lock instead of panicking, plus unit tests.
- Replace all 153 .lock().unwrap() and 4 .read()/.write().unwrap() production
sites with _safe variants across 14 files, eliminating the player
crash-cascade class. Tokio async mutexes are unchanged.
Workstream B — graceful backend init:
- create_player_backend no longer panics when MPV/ExoPlayer fail to initialize;
it falls back to NullBackend and emits a backend-init-failed event so the UI
can show "playback unavailable" instead of the app crashing. Fatal DB-setup
panics are kept.
Workstream F — doc reconciliation:
- Rewrite software-architecture.md's inaccurate "thin UI / ~800 lines" claims to
reflect reality (~20.5k non-test frontend) and document the events+polling
hybrid plus the new locking/backend-init behavior.
