Seeking near the end of a transcoded video locked the player into a
stall/pause loop: unpausing or skipping bounced straight back to paused.
Both seek paths clamped the target to exactly `duration`. hls.js then
requested the segment whose start time lies *past* the end of the media
(a 6330.324s item asks for segment 1055, starting at 6336.33s). Jellyfin
never produces that segment, the fetch times out, and the gap-controller
stalls forever at the last buffered position — retrying ~1x/second and
firing an endless stream of AbortErrors as play() lands mid-nudge.
Clamp strictly inside the media instead, keeping one segment length
(6s) of margin, floored at 0 so short media still seeks to the start.
The seek-bar drag path needed this too: its range input `max` is the
duration itself, so dragging fully right produced the same dead target.
Also bumps the requirement-count fixture for the new DR-095 row.
check:boundary passed on the very leak it was written for. The pattern was
anchored to `includeItemTypes:` at the query site, so searchScope.ts
assigning the same array to a named const and dereferencing it one
indirection away was invisible — through every green CI run.
The check now matches an array literal naming two or more Jellyfin item
types anywhere in src/, catching a const, a Record value, a function
return, and an inline query alike. Deliberate limits kept: two adjacent
literals required (single-type presentation stays legal), string literals
required (item.type === "Audio" is display logic), explicit type list
(so ["High","Low"] produces no noise).
Verified all five cases: reintroducing the original SCOPE_ITEM_TYPES
fails; a new const ["Movie","Series"] fails; the same array in a
.test.ts passes; itemType: "Movie" / item.type === / ["High","Low"] pass;
a 5th allowlist entry fails on the new cap.
Allowlist 1→3 entries, capped at 4 so the next exception forces a
conversation rather than a one-line append:
- GenericMediaListPage: grid styling over a self-declared itemType —
presentation, changes only with a UI redesign.
- DownloadedBrowse: borderline, leans domain (the container set grows
when Jellyfin adds a container type). Allowlisted with a TODO for a
backend MediaItem.isContainer flag.
The header now names what the check still cannot see — run-time-built
sets, types split across variables, switch/|| taxonomy — and CLAUDE.md
states that a green check:boundary is not proof. That matters given this
check passed on its own founding violation for months.
Also: both gates wired into test-all.sh, which called `bun run test`
without --run and would have hung in watch mode. Corrected the Dockerfile
comment describing the Windows toolchain as mingw/GNU — it is MSVC via
cargo-xwin (GNU cannot bundle NSIS from Linux).
Investigation into unifying the playback backends (Linux/MPV, Android/ExoPlayer,
Windows/webview) onto one engine with hardware acceleration. Conclusion: video
cannot be unified onto a native engine; audio can.
The blocker is not mpv-specific. WebKitGTK, WebView2 and Android WebView each
draw into their own compositor surface, so a native video surface sits either
entirely above or entirely below the webview and cannot interleave with HTML.
GStreamer and libVLC fail identically. mpv would additionally regress streaming:
it has no adaptive bitrate, while the current hls.js path does.
Six specs added:
- playback-backend-unification: the analysis and decision, with evidence
- android-audio-settings-parity: set_audio_settings on ExoPlayerBackend
- android-native-video-spike: timeboxed test of SurfaceView compositing
- windows-native-audio-backend: replace the webview <audio> shim with libmpv
- libmpv2-migration: dead libmpv git pin -> libmpv2, plus a LICENSE file
- playback-docs-corrections: the requirement-status fixes applied here
Corrections to requirements.md, all verified against source:
- UR-031/DR-034 claimed crossfade was "Done (Linux only)". It is implemented
nowhere (mpv_backend.rs has a bare TODO) and is architecturally blocked on
mpv, whose single-stream audio chain cannot feed acrossfade's two inputs.
- Parity matrix listed crossfade as a Linux/Android gap; it is neither.
- The matrix omitted the equalizer, which has the same Linux-only shape.
- The suggested ConcatenatingMediaSource is deprecated in current Media3.
nativeAdapter.ts cited tauri#10152 as an upstream blocker for native Android
video. That issue is a stale feature request, dead since 2024-07-01; the
capability shipped in tauri 27d01834 (2024-09-02), and the related
black-screen bug was fixed in wry 0.39.4 (we ship 0.55.x). What is genuinely
unproven is SurfaceView-behind-WebView compositing, which the spike now tracks.
Records the search relevance and grouping behaviour as UR-060, with DR-090
(Rust relevance ranking) and DR-091 (Shows/Episodes split, People group,
stored-order migration). DR-066 now points at DR-091 for the current group set
instead of restating a default order that has since changed.
Skipping to the next episode left a mid-episode resume point behind, so
the skipped episode reappeared in Continue Watching with a partial
progress bar. Skipping means "done with this one", not "stopped here".
- reportSkippedEpisode marks the outgoing episode played instead of
reporting a stop position, and arms a one-shot suppression consumed by
the player's stop handler, so VideoPlayer's post-navigation unmount
stop report can't overwrite the 100% progress with the partial one.
- Continue Watching drops resume entries superseded by Next Up: an
in-progress episode whose series has a next-up entry strictly later in
series order (season, then episode) is hidden from the Home and TV
rows. Movies, series without a next-up entry, and items with unknown
or mixed ordering are always kept.
Adds UR-059, DR-088, DR-089.
TRACES: UR-059 | DR-088, DR-089
Adds a 10-band graphic equalizer to AudioSettings (enabled flag +
per-band dB gains, normalised to 10 entries and clamped to range).
Presets return gain curves; the settings page gains EQ UI. libmpv
applies the filter on Linux (Android parity pending). Old persisted
settings without EQ fields load as disabled + flat.
Also includes the requirements/traceability/ux-flows doc updates for
this feature and the home long-press routing (UR-058/DR-087).
TRACES: UR-027 | IR-020, DR-030 | UT-079, UT-080, UT-081, UT-082
The browsable Downloaded library + Transfers split + on-disk usage
(f25deba, plus today's grouping/perf fixes) fully implement UR-055 and
UR-056, but the requirements doc still listed them and DR-081..085 as
Planned. Flip to Done.
Also fix UT-id collisions: the downloaded-browse and formatBytes tests
reused UT-046..050 (already assigned to smart-cache/playlist tests in the
matrix). Reassign to UT-071..078 and register them in §4, including the
new music/TV container-rollup and orphan-leaf regression tests.
The DR-079/DR-080 root-cause fixes for issue #10 landed in 8f4f651; the
requirements doc still listed UR-052 (and DR-078/079/080, UT-068/069/070,
IT-016/017) as Broken/Partial/Pending. Flip them to Done and regenerate the
traceability matrix. Existing backend tests already cover the IT-016/017
end-to-end scenarios (annotated with their IDs in the code commits).
Settings page refactor plus supporting docs (requirements, ux-flows,
traceability) and the frontend-domain-model spec with implementation-status
banner. Removes SkeletonLoader and StorageManagement components (no remaining
references).
Add specs for the account menu, downloads-as-offline-library, offline
downloaded-only filter, and scoped search (+ boundary revision). Add the
new UR/DR entries to requirements.md, update ux-flows, and regenerate the
traceability matrix.
TRACES: UR-049, UR-050, UR-052, UR-053, UR-054, UR-055, UR-056
Add a docs-site (mdBook) with a Gitea publish-docs workflow, a
release-notes generator script (release:notes) that turns a commit
range's TRACES into grouped notes, the background-audio feature spec,
and CLAUDE.md. Ignore docs-site build artifacts.
- Standardize on bun: remove package-lock.json, add packageManager field,

- 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
