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.
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 PiP for native (ExoPlayer) video on Android. Video renders into a
SurfaceView behind the WebView, so PiP is driven by the Activity shrinking
into a floating window rather than the HTML5 PiP API (which WebKitGTK does
not implement, hence Android-only).
- PictureInPictureManager.kt: enter PiP with the video's aspect ratio
(clamped to the 1:2.39-2.39:1 range Android accepts, outside which it
throws), plus a play/pause RemoteAction. Hides the WebView while in PiP -
it is opaque and sits above the surface, so it would otherwise occlude the
video entirely - and re-fits the surface on exit.
- MainActivity.kt: onUserLeaveHint auto-PiP, onPictureInPictureModeChanged,
and an AndroidPictureInPicture JS interface following the existing
AndroidAudioFocus pattern.
- pictureInPicture.ts + VideoPlayer.svelte: PiP button, rendered only when
the native bridge reports support.
- proguard: keep rules for @JavascriptInterface methods, which are only
referenced from JS and would be stripped in minified release builds.
Casting needs no special handling: canEnterPip() checks natively that a
local video surface is attached and playing, which a remote session lacks.
While wiring the manifest, found that three tracked files under
src-tauri/android/ were never reaching any build. Gradle reads only
gen/android/app/src/main/, and sync-android-sources.sh did not copy them:
- src/main/AndroidManifest.xml was a partial <application> fragment written
as if Tauri merged it. It does not - there is no manifest-merger hook
here, so its hardwareAccelerated flag never reached an APK. Promoted to
the complete authoritative manifest (folding in that flag) and synced.
- src/main/res/values/themes.xml (transparent status bar, fitsSystemWindows)
was never copied; the sync only globbed mipmap-*. Now synced.
- build.gradle.kts was a leftover com.android.library module config with
stale media3 1.5.1 deps. The live deps are in app/build.gradle.kts at
1.5.0. Deleted.
Verified: merged manifest now carries hardwareAccelerated,
supportsPictureInPicture, resizeableActivity and the density configChange;
themes.xml compiles into merged resources; Kotlin builds warning-free;
svelte-check clean; 537 frontend tests pass.
Not verified: PiP behaviour on a device, and the release keep rules against
a minified build. assembleUniversalDebug cannot complete in this
environment - the Rust step wants a dev-server addr file that only exists
under `tauri android dev`.
