Sync carried only watch positions, so a second device started empty. The
per-installation history file now also carries per-key registers
(pstr-core::profile): every share with its link and custom password, the
playback, appearance and metadata settings, the TMDB key, hand-picked
matches and per-title track choices. Newer updated_at wins per key, a
removal travels as an empty register, and a first sync stamps at 0 so a
fresh install takes the library the other devices have instead of
overwriting it with defaults. Volume, mute and the device-only settings
(cache budget, Wi-Fi only, background audio, hardware decoding) stay out.
The secrets live only in the end-to-end encrypted Drive file, never in
shares.json. FORMAT_VERSION stays 1; an older build ignores the registers.
Adding a share stored it before opening the link, so a first failure left a
broken entry and every retry said "already configured". add_verified opens
the link first and stores nothing on failure, and only the new share is
crawled afterwards, so another broken share cannot fail the add.
Android drops picture-in-picture: the window sized the video wrongly and
background audio already covers leaving the app.
iOS sizes the Metal drawable on every layout, so the picture no longer
stretches after a rotation or a Split View resize. Settings show a save at
once rather than after the match run, and a failed save reverts and says
why. Both phone clients gain an activity banner naming what is running, and
the add-share, metadata and change-match forms show progress and errors in
place.
Moves to proton-sdk / proton-drive-rs 0.7.3.
The stored Proton session now holds, per account key, the passphrase derived
from the mailbox password at sign-in, and resumes through
`ProtonDriveClient::with_key_passphrases`. The mailbox password — on a
single-password account, the login password — and the key salts are no longer
stored. A session in the earlier shape, which only development builds of
1.2.0 wrote, reads as signed out: signing in again replaces it.
An account whose only second factor is a security key is refused at sign-in
with a reason, rather than asked for a code that can only fail as a wrong one.
The code prompts now say plainly that security keys are not supported.
- 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.
A Proton account is now optional alongside public links. Signing in (password,
then a second-factor code and a mailbox password where the account has them;
a CAPTCHA gate is solved in the Android app) stores one session blob in the OS
credential store under `proton-account`, writing back every refreshed token
since refresh tokens are single-use. With an account, folders of the viewer's
own Drive — My Files, other devices, shared with me — can be added as shares
through the same `ShareClient` surface as a public link.
Watch history syncs through a `proton-stream` device in that Drive: one
`watch-history/<installation>.json` per installation, so no two devices ever
write the same file. Each sync reads the others and merges per episode, newer
`updated_at` wins, with a deterministic tie-break. It runs at launch, after
sign-in, whenever the player closes and every five minutes. A session that can
no longer refresh signs the app out instead of failing on every launch.
The CLI gains `login`, `logout`, `account`, `browse` and `sync`.
Also in this change:
- Android offline downloads no longer look stuck (B64): two transfer at once,
through a copy stream with no read-ahead, with a smoothed transfer rate.
- Choosing a metadata match by hand now enriches the title too, instead of
keeping the old match's episodes and artwork.
The catalog schema is unchanged.
Bring the phase 2 library to Android. Search, sorting and franchise folding
move from the desktop app into pstr_core::browse, so both clients find,
fold and order the same titles the same way.
The bridge gains AndroidEngine::arrangement, which returns the grid's tiles
and up to three shelves as keys into the library's titles. Each TitleRecord
now carries its display name, wide art, format, season, studios, directors,
tags, airing state and franchise. The library bar has a sort menu with the
franchise toggle, folded tiles show a +N badge, and shelves sit above the
grid. The title page shows the same facts, tags and franchise row as the
desktop. Settings -> Appearance gains Title names.
The default title name is now English, which is what Android always showed.
A folded franchise now sorts by its lead's displayed name rather than by its
alphabetically first member.
The AniList query now keeps the start date, season, banner, popularity,
status, next airing episode, tags, main studios, director and story
relations, as TitleDetails in one JSON column (schema v10). Matches
stored without them are fetched again by id, never searched, so
hand-picked matches stay; refreshing the same entry keeps its episodes
and fanart. Enrichment records the entries it walked. node_first_seen
remembers when each file appeared, across recrawls.
pstr_core::franchise groups titles that share a provider id. The grid
folds each franchise into its lead with a +N badge, and the title page
lists the whole franchise in release order. pstr_core::shelves picks
rows by airing status, director, studio and genre. A row needs three
franchises, so one franchise's titles never make a row on their own.
Desktop:
- Covers are the default grid (Settings > Appearance > Library tiles).
- The hero and title band use fanart or banner decoded at 1920 px.
- New sorts: recently added, newest, highest rated, most popular.
- Titles can show the share's, English or romaji name; search matches
all of them.
Android carries TitleDetails through a hand-picked match; its screens
are unchanged.
AniList's per-season lookup searched for "<title> 2nd Season" and the
scorer picked the base entry again, so Attack on Titan seasons 2-4 and
Jigokuraku season 2 were captioned with season one's names. Episode
names came from streamingEpisodes, which is partial and numbered however
a streaming site counted. Bleach S17 and Mushishi S02/S03 had none.
AniList now walks SEQUEL relations from the match and takes each
entry's episodes from ani.zip, which carries TVDB's season, number and
absolute number. An episode row keeps all three plus its place in the
AniList entry. EpisodeGuide::get matches whichever numbering a file
uses and never answers from another season.
Episodes and fanart are stored as one enrichment. The episode list is
replaced even when empty, and the enrichment is recorded as asked, so a
film is not re-asked every run. Storing a different match drops the old
entry's episode rows. AniList's 4.75:1 bannerImage is no longer stored
as the 16:9 backdrop; ani.zip's 1920x1080 fanart is used instead.
Schema v9 adds the columns and deletes the AniList episode rows and
banners. Matches are kept. Desktop, Android and the CLI now share
service::plan and MetadataService::work. The settings text names
ani.zip. Audit and roadmap in docs/METADATA.md; bug entry B61.
Every played episode, newest first, under Today, Yesterday, a weekday or a
date. A row shows the still (which plays it), the title (which opens it),
the episode, and where it stopped or that it was finished. Removing a row
resets that file to never played, with an Undo. History sits second in the
top bar, so Ctrl+1 to Ctrl+5 now run Library, History, Shares, Downloads,
Settings.
- the streaming cache's budget (1-16 GiB) is chosen in Settings, shows
what it holds, and can be emptied; a lower budget evicts at once
- hardware decoding can be turned off for a driver that shows green
frames, from the next file
- both live in desktop.json rather than the playback prefs shared with
Android, whose bridge record would reset them on every save. A file
that will not parse is never overwritten
The up-next card shows the next episode's still with the seconds left
running round it, and the still itself plays it. The window opens at
the size and maximized state it closed at; position is left to the
window manager.
- ImageCache drops the picture asked for longest ago past 256 MiB and
uploads at most six textures a frame
- posters and thumbnails larger than a card are stored scaled down, so
a cached grid no longer decodes and resizes full backdrops every launch
- a saved watch state patches the library in place instead of rebuilding
it from the catalog; the offline index reuses the library just built
- download byte progress sends one row, not a sorted copy of every row
- the CJK fallback font is found and read off the UI thread
- the watch-state upsert uses a cached statement
A block the player waits for no longer waits on its disk-cache write and
two fsyncs; the put runs in a spawned task and only the block itself is
synced before the rename. Opening a stream can fetch the first and last
block together, where MKV cues and the MP4 moov live. Downloads open a
copying stream that reads the disk cache but never fills it.
crawl_reporting reports the running file count after each listing.
A track picked on one episode now carries over to the next by its title as
well as its language, so e.g. "Signs & Songs" vs "Full" subtitles in the same
language stick. Catalog migration V8 adds the title columns; the Android
bridge keeps a stored title only while its language is unchanged.
