Minor. Sync now carries the whole library, not only watch positions:
shares with their links and passwords, playback, appearance and metadata
settings, the TMDB key, hand-picked matches and per-title tracks, so every
signed-in device shows the same library. Devices share it once all of them
run 1.4.0; an older build keeps syncing watch positions and ignores the
rest.
Android drops picture-in-picture. iOS fixes the stretched player after a
rotation or resize, the share that failed to add on the first try, and
settings that saved late or silently. Both phone clients now show what is
running and why a form was refused.
No catalog schema change since 1.3.0.
Minor. One new client: an iOS 17+ app, a SwiftUI port of the Android one
over the same Rust engine, published as an unsigned .ipa for SideStore and
AltStore. docs/IOS.md lists where iOS cannot follow Android: no
picture-in-picture, links come in through the protonstream:// scheme or
Paste link rather than the share sheet, and downloads run while the app
does.
No change to the Rust crates, the catalog schema or the desktop and Android
clients since 1.2.0.
- Desktop shows Proton's CAPTCHA instead of failing the sign-in: a wry webview
in a child process of the app (`pstr-app::verify`), confined to
https://*.proton.me, hands the token back and the sign-in is retried. Linux
packages and CI gain WebKitGTK 4.1; the Windows zip and MSI ship
WebView2Loader.dll, without which a -gnu build does not start.
- The desktop keyring splits a secret too long for one entry across several,
so a Proton session with many key salts survives Windows' 1280-unit cap.
Short secrets stay one entry, so every existing secret still reads.
- `WatchSync` runs against a small `HistoryDrive` trait and is tested end to
end against an in-memory Drive: two devices, newer wins, no re-upload of an
unchanged history, a missing file written again, an unreadable own file
never overwritten, a newer-format file left alone.
- An installation's file unwritten for 90 days is retired by the next device
to sync, after its entries are merged and carried in that device's file.
- Removing a share keeps its watch state: sync would bring it back from the
other devices anyway, and re-adding the share picks up where it left off.
- Watch history syncs once more on desktop exit (bounded to 3 s) and, on
Android, through a WorkManager job enqueued when the app leaves the screen.
- The second-factor prompts say security keys are not supported.
Minor. Two new features, both optional and both behind signing in to a Proton
account:
- Sign in with a Proton account (password, two-factor code, separate mailbox
password) on desktop, Android and the CLI, and add folders of your own Drive
— My Files, other devices, shared with me — as library shares next to public
links. The session lives in the OS credential store, never in shares.json.
- Watch history follows you across devices. Each installation keeps its own
file on a `proton-stream` device in your Drive and merges everyone else's
per episode, newest position wins. It syncs at launch, after sign-in, when
the player closes and every five minutes.
Also: Android offline downloads no longer look stuck (B64), and picking a
metadata match by hand refreshes the title's episodes and artwork.
The catalog schema is unchanged from 1.1.3. A new `sync.json` beside
`shares.json` holds this installation's sync id.
Patch. Fixes two Windows installer defects: an MSI upgrade no longer leaves
the app without libmpv until a second install (B62), and a taskbar pin keeps
its icon, which the exe now carries itself (B63). The catalog schema and
on-disk data are unchanged from 1.1.2.
An MSI upgrade left the app without libmpv-2.dll until it was installed a
second time (B62). Costing runs before RemoveExistingProducts, saw the old
DLL at the same version and skipped the copy, and removing the old product
then deleted it. Both installer definitions now set REINSTALLMODE=amus;
every file is private to the install directory.
A taskbar pin lost its icon after a while (B63). The exe carried no icon
resource, and the Start Menu shortcut's icon lived in the per-ProductCode
installer cache that each upgrade deletes. build.rs now compiles the .ico
into proton-stream.exe, and the shortcut has no Icon of its own (and in the
WiX build is no longer advertised), so both show the exe's icon.
Patch. The only change since 1.1.1 is on Android: the primary button on the
library hero no longer draws taller than the button beside it. The catalog
schema and on-disk data are unchanged from 1.1.1.
Patch, not minor. Nothing a viewer uses changes: the Android build moves to
NDK r30 and mpv-android 687c7fd, which brings newer harfbuzz, fribidi,
unibreak, fontconfig, libxml2 and curl into the bundled libmpv. The catalog
schema and on-disk data are unchanged from 1.1.0.
Minor, not patch. This release adds features and changes on-disk data:
- ani.zip episode names and fanart.
- Franchise grouping, shelves, poster grid and new sorts.
- Two catalog migrations (v9, v10). Catalogs are forward-only, so 1.0.x
refuses to open a catalog 1.1.0 has upgraded.
The first match run after upgrading fetches every title's details and
episode list again. It refetches by id and does not search, so
hand-picked matches are kept.
The icon follows proton-drive-linux's logo: a violet gradient tile with
a darker lower edge, and a white play mark with a soft shadow, cut into
the blocks a revision is fetched in. The SVG, the window PNG and the
Windows .ico are rendered from one source.
On Android it is an adaptive icon with a monochrome layer for themed
icons, and the notification glyph is the same mark. The app is named
"Proton Stream"; the launcher shows "Stream", since "proton-stream" was
cut to "proton-st…".
