Leaving a video and returning to it rendered the movie/episode in AudioPlayer. Closing a webview-rendered video deliberately emits no "stopped" state (that would break the autoplay handoff), and the direct-play path does not stop the backend on unmount, so the Rust controller still reported that item as its loaded media. Re-entering the route therefore took the "already playing, just show the UI" shortcut, which returns before a stream URL is fetched, and the render fell through to the audio surface. Mostly visible on Android, where video direct-plays; Linux transcodes and stops the backend on unmount. Both decisions move into playerSurface.ts as pure functions: shouldReuseActivePlayback excludes video, so video always takes the full load path and gets its stream URL and resume position; resolvePlayerSurface maps video-without-a-stream-URL to "pending" (spinner) rather than falling through to audio.

JellyTau
A cross-platform Jellyfin client built with Tauri, SvelteKit, and TypeScript.
Business logic lives in a Rust backend; a UI-rich Svelte frontend handles presentation and talks to it over Tauri's IPC. Targets Linux (libmpv) and Android (ExoPlayer).
Getting Started
This project uses bun as its package manager.
# Activate the Rust environment (fish shell)
source "$HOME/.cargo/env.fish"
# Install dependencies
bun install
# Run in development
bun run tauri dev
# Type-check the frontend
bun run check
# Build for Linux
bun run tauri build
# Build for Android
bun run tauri android build
