The episode, track, speed, chapter and sleep choosers and the More menu
live inside the player's controls, and the controls hide four seconds
after they come up while the video plays. Hiding them took the open
chooser with them, so a sheet being picked from closed at what looked
like random. The controls now hold still while a chooser is open.
The banner height came from Configuration.screenHeightDp, which lint now
rejects in favour of LocalWindowInfo's container size; the four phone
library screenshots move by a pixel with it. The mood colour scaled its
picture with Bitmap.createScaledBitmap where lint asks for the KTX
Bitmap.scale.
Choosing an audio or subtitle track read the track list back before mpv
had made the switch, so the tick stayed on the old track until the next
poll. The tick now moves on the choice, and the list is read again
300 ms later to confirm it.
On Android, `load` set `alang` and `slang` only when they were not
empty. mpv keeps both across `loadfile`, so a file with no language
preference took the previous file's. Both are now set on every load.
This closes the last open item of B41.
On Android and iOS a swipe up or down on the left half of the picture
sets the brightness and on the right half the volume; a sideways swipe
seeks, showing where it will land and seeking only when the finger
lifts. Swipes that start at the top or bottom edge are left to the
system. Android turns the device's media volume; iOS lets no app do
that, so there the swipe turns the player's own, as its slider does.
Brightness set by a swipe is handed back when the player goes.
Lock touch, in the player's menu, makes the picture ignore touches and
the back gesture; a tap brings up Unlock for a few seconds.
The sleep timer pauses after 30 or 60 minutes, or stops at the end of
the episode playing instead of going on to the next, with no up-next
card. On the desktop it is a panel like the others, behind a moon
button that shows what is left; on Android and iOS it lives with the
player host, so it keeps running with the screen off.
Most files that are not fansub releases carry no chapters, so they had no
skip button. AniSkip knows where an episode's opening and ending are, by
MyAnimeList id and episode number. ani.zip sends each entry's MyAnimeList
id and enrichment now keeps it on every episode row; schema v14 adds the
column and marks AniList titles un-enriched, deleting nothing, as v13 did.
When a file has loaded with no chapter naming an opening or ending, and
its length is known, each client asks once, with enrichment on only. The
answer lives as long as the file is open. with_skip_ranges cuts it into
the chapters as chapters named Opening and Ending, so the skip button,
auto-skip, the up-next countdown and the seek bar's marks all work
through the code a chaptered file uses. A file's own opening or ending
always wins over AniSkip's.
PRIVACY.md lists what is sent: the MyAnimeList id, the episode number and
the file's length.
The audio, subtitle, speed and chapter pickers were stock popup menus
hanging off the transport. They are now panels down the right of the
picture, in the place and style of the episode list: one at a time, a
whole row per choice, the chosen one filled and ticked, closed by its
button again or by Esc. The library's mini player keeps its menus.
What a key did is shown in the middle of the picture with an icon, and
the volume with a bar. Seeks the same way in quick succession add up, so
three presses of the right arrow read "+ 90 s".
After five seconds paused with the mouse still, the picture dims and the
controls give way to what is playing: the logo or the name, the episode,
and its synopsis, or the show's when the episode has none. Moving the
mouse brings the controls back.
The turn was a LaunchedEffect keyed on the pager's current page, and the
current page flips half way through a scroll. The effect restarted there,
cancelling its own animation and leaving two titles side by side until
the next swipe. It is keyed on the settled page now.
AniList's fragment now asks for the first ten characters, main roles
first, with their Japanese voice actor, and for the trailer's site and
id. Both are stored in the existing details JSON as TitleDetails.cast and
.trailer with serde defaults, so no migration is needed and details
stored before them still read. The details REVISION goes to 2, so a
stored match is refetched by its id on the next metadata run and the
cast fills in without anyone matching the title again.
The title page shows a Cast row of round portraits with the character's
name over the actor's. Clicking a tile opens the Person browse page for
that actor, which now also admits voice actors, and search counts them
under People and studios. A Trailer button opens the YouTube or
Dailymotion page in the browser; the app itself makes no request to
either, and an unknown site or an id with odd characters gives no link.
A search now also finds, with posters and descriptions on, the directors
and studios and the genres whose names hold it, as chips that open their
page, and the episodes whose provider names hold it, which play from the
result (pstr_core::discover::find). The titles it found follow under
their own heading.
The last eight searches are kept in recent-searches.json on this device
only (pstr_core::recent), written only when a search led somewhere, and
offered under the empty search box with a way to clear them. The bridge
exposes search_extras, recent_searches, remember_search and
forget_searches.
On Android and iOS the library's titles are now the whole library
whatever is searched for; the grid narrows through the arrangement, as
it already did. A title opened from an episode result can then always be
shown, and History and Downloads no longer shrink to the search.
pstr_core::discover scores every title against another by shared
director, studio, genres, leading tags and format, leaves out its own
franchise and keeps one title per other franchise. It drives a "More
like this" row under a title's episodes and, seeded by the title most
recently watched to the end, a "Because you watched" row on the library
of titles not yet started.
Genre chips on the title page now open a page of every title with that
genre, and the studios and director move from the line of facts onto
chips of their own that do the same. The desktop has a Browse page whose
back link returns to the title; Android and iOS show it over the library
pane. The bridge exposes more_like, browse and facet_kind.
Also moves a doc comment the My List commit left on the wrong function.
My List is a list of titles to watch later, kept in my-list.json by
title key (pstr-core::mylist) and synced as one list/<key> register per
title, so an add or a removal on one device reaches every other. A list
file that will not parse is never written over: changing the list is
refused instead. It is a filter, a row on the library, a button on the
banner and the title page, and an entry in each tile's menu.
pstr-core::news reads node_first_seen against each share's first crawl,
so a newly added share does not badge its whole library. A title that
arrived in the last two weeks and was never played is New; a series
being watched counts the unwatched episodes that arrived after it was
last played ("3 new"). They fill the tile badge and the "New episodes"
and "Recently added" rows. shelves::home puts every row in one order
for all three apps, and a shelf tile of an airing show shows a
countdown ("Ep 8 · in 2 d").
The bridge gains TitleRecord.on_list and .badge, set_on_list, the
MyList filter, airing_countdown and SyncRecord.list_changed.
A title page now says where the show stands as a chip beside the
quality marks: Airing with the day the next episode comes out, Finished,
Upcoming, On hiatus or Cancelled. The words come from
TitleDetails::status_label, which the bridge hands the phones as
TitleRecord.status; the airing note leaves the line of facts.
A show with more than five seasons picks its season from a drop-down
rather than a row of pills that ran off the page, and a watched
episode's still carries a tick in its corner as well as the mark at the
end of its row.
On a phone the backdrop at the top of a title page now moves at half
the speed of the page scrolling over it, and the back button sits in a
bar that fills in with the title's name once the backdrop has gone, so
a long episode list still says whose it is. The fade into the page is
tinted with the backdrop's colour, as on the library's banner.
iOS keeps its slide in from the edge: the zoom transition needs a
NavigationStack, and the title page is shown over the library by hand.
The library's banner now runs edge to edge and turns through up to five
titles: the one watched last, then titles with a wide picture, starting
from a different one each day. It moves on every eight seconds, holds
still under the pointer, and has dots to pick a title. A part-watched
title shows how far in the viewer is under its buttons.
The veils over the banner and over a title page's band are tinted with
the picture's own colour. The weighting and the veil live in
pstr_core::appearance (mood, mood_veil), so the desktop and both phones,
which reach them through the bridge, land on the same colour.
On Android the banner is a HorizontalPager under a clear bar that fills
in as it scrolls away; iOS uses a paged TabView the same way.
A first pass at making the three clients look like a streaming app rather
than a file browser, with no new data behind it.
- Type: a Hero rung (34) set in Inter Display Bold, the optical size Inter
draws for large text, for the banner's name and a title page's name where
no logo stands in. Desktop `Role::Hero` and `theme::display`; Android and
iOS `displayLarge`, at a tighter 1.1 leading. The font has its private use
mappings stripped like the other two cuts.
- Artwork fades in over its skeleton on Android and iOS, as it already did
on desktop cards; art already decoded draws at once. Desktop episode
stills and logos fade in too.
- Skeletons shimmer: a soft diagonal highlight instead of a pulse.
- Desktop tiles lift towards the viewer under the pointer, capped so a
lifted tile never reaches its neighbour, and keyboard focus gets a ring
of its own.
- Desktop shelves share one `ui::shelf`: edges fade into the page and, under
the pointer, round buttons page the row along.
- Genres are chips on Android and iOS; quality (4K, HDR, 10-bit, Dual audio)
moves out of the facts line into small outlined marks on all three.
- Desktop title page and hero buttons use a tonal style beside the accent
one, and the player's top bar a dark glass style, instead of egui's stock
buttons. Episode numbers leave monospace for the type ramp.
- The phone players' top and bottom bars are gradients rather than flat
bands, and a double-tap seek is felt as well as seen.
A title with no fanart, banner or backdrop drew its poster cropped to the
band's shape across the title page and the library's banner: a blown-up
slice of the middle of it, which read as broken. Now the poster is
squeezed to 64x36 and blurred once when it is fetched, the cache keeps
that wash, and it is stretched across the band. The library's banner
stands the sharp poster at its right over it. Android blurs the poster
it already had (Android 12 and later; older versions decode it tiny),
and iOS likewise.
METADATA.md also records the quality badges of the commit before.
Release names say what their files are — 2160p, HDR, 10-bit, Dual-Audio —
and nothing showed it. naming::quality reads those words, whatever they
are separated by, and Title::quality keeps what more than half a title's
files state, so one odd special does not mark a show down. The facts line
of a title's page ends with them: 4K, 1080p, HDR, 10-bit, Dual audio.
Release groups' names are never read.
TVDB has no films, so ani.zip has no fanart or logo for one, and most of
the titles in a real library with nothing wide to draw were films. ani.zip
does name the TMDB entry of every AniList match. With a TMDB key stored
and AniList chosen, an entry left without a backdrop or a logo is asked
for /{movie,tv}/{id}/images: one request, by id, so no title name goes to
TMDB. A bare backdrop and a PNG logo in the viewer's language are
preferred, and a failure there only costs the art.
The TMDB key field is now offered with either provider, labelled optional
with AniList. TMDB as the provider fetches its logo the same way, and
backdrops at w1280 rather than w780. A forced run re-enriches hand-picked
titles too, so saving a key and matching everything again reaches them.
Scene releases name the episode in dotted words before their tags:
Game.of.Thrones.S01E01.Winter.Is.Coming.2160p... Read the words up to the
first quality, source or codec tag; a dotted run that no tag ends is not taken.
With AniList chosen, a title AniList has no match for is now searched on
TVmaze, keyless, before it is given up on. One provider for the whole library
left live-action shows in a share of anime unmatched, and switching to TMDB
would have dropped every AniList match, chain and shelf.
The service holds a chain of providers. A match is stored under the provider
that gave it, and enrichment and refreshes go to that provider; a miss is
stored under the last provider asked, and is_fresh only trusts a miss from the
end of the chain, so AniList misses stored before this are asked again at once.
A provider failure still ends the lookup instead of falling through.
The hand matcher searches every provider in the chain and labels each result
with its source. TVmaze is never offered in the settings and is not asked
about titles known to be films.
ani.zip sent each series' TVDB clear logo and every episode's running
time from the start, and neither was kept. Enrichment now stores the logo
in title_metadata.logo_url (kept across a refresh of the same entry, like
the fanart) and episode runtimes in episode_metadata.runtime, TVDB's
first and AniDB's length after it. AniList's duration lands in
TitleDetails::runtime; TMDB episode runtimes are kept too.
Schema v13 adds the two columns and marks AniList titles un-enriched
without deleting anything. TitleDetails::revision lets details written
before runtime existed refetch by id while the old ones stay on screen,
instead of blanking them in the migration as v10 did.
Clear logos are padded to a square, so each client crops them to their
visible pixels before drawing. The logo replaces the name on the
library's banner and the title page (not on a light theme's title page,
where lettering made for dark art can vanish). Episode rows show how long
they run, in place of the file size on Android and iOS; a film's runtime
joins its line of facts.
The header under the episode's numbering showed `Episode::detail`, which
falls back to the file name — `[Judas] Chainsaw Man - S01E01.mkv` on a
phone, where the desktop shows `Dog & Chainsaw`. It now shows the
provider's name for the episode, else the one the file name gave it, and
nothing rather than the file name: the release group's tag is no caption,
and it is what a screenshot of the player would carry away.
The preview drew every font in the app's own Inter, so picking one changed
nothing on screen. On Linux it now asks fontconfig for the face libass would
use — the family with the weight and slant wanted, or fontconfig's fallback
when it is not installed — loads it on a thread of its own and draws the
sample in it. A bold or italic the face lacks is made up, as libass does.
Windows and macOS have no fc-match and keep the app's font, as the hint there
still says.
The CJK fallback and the subtitle face are now both kept, so installing one
no longer drops the other.
mpv's default sub-ass-override, `scale`, hands an ASS track sub-scale,
and sub-pos reaches it under every mode but `no`. So with "Restyle
styled subtitles" off, the subtitle size and position settings still
resized and moved typeset dialogue and signs.
The override is now `yes` when restyling is off, which keeps sub-scale
off ASS. A styled track also ignores the style's position, and moves
only to stay clear of the player's controls. A frame from an ASS track
rendered with every other option changed now matches the untouched one
pixel for pixel. Plain (SRT) tracks still take the whole style.
The subtitle style was three fixed choices. It is now size, position,
font, bold and italic, free colours with opacity for the text, outline,
box and shadow, outline thickness, shadow distance and blur, and an
opt-in "Restyle styled subtitles" that repaints ASS dialogue too
(sub-ass-override=force). The defaults are mpv's own, so a viewer who
never opens the section sees no change.
Settings has a section of its own with a sample line drawn on a bright
and a dark picture. Every change also reaches the playing file at once,
and is written when the mouse is let go rather than once per frame of a
drag. The player's subtitle menu has size, position and a per-file
delay; Z and X shift subtitles by 0.1 s, as in mpv.
Every option is sent every time, so a change back to a default lands on
a live player. A refused sub-border-style still skips the border options
that depend on it, so an older libmpv loses the box rather than drawing
a smear.
The four Rebuild of Evangelion films in one folder were one series:
`- 1.11` read as episode 1, and every file took the folder's name, so
the whole folder matched a single film. A dash followed by a decimal is
now part of the film's name, and a folder whose files are all
unnumbered, outside any grouping folder and each named differently
gives each file its own title.
AniList needs every query word in a title, and a film's version number
is not in it, so a search that finds nothing is retried without it.
All four films now match their own entries.
Plain-text subtitles (SRT) were drawn in mpv's bare default, thin white
text that bright scenes swallow. Settings → Playback now picks a size,
an outline or a dark box, and white or yellow text. Styled (ASS) tracks
keep their own look and take only the size.
The box options are mpv 0.38's, so they are set best effort: an older
libmpv logs and plays on. The style syncs with the other playback
settings, and the Android bridge keeps the stored style instead of
resetting it on save.
The mark's box centred on x=73 of the 64-centred tile, so it sat visibly
right. It now centres x=70, between its box and its centroid, as the
Android and iOS icons already do. icon-256.png and the Windows .ico are
rendered again from the SVG.
The README still described an early, public-links-only app. It now
shows the desktop and Android apps, lists what each release ships per
platform, covers sign-in, Drive folders, sync, downloads, Android TV and
dialogue-first subtitles, and points at the wiki for the details.
docs/ gains pages for people using the app rather than building it:
getting started, installation, the user guide, account and sync,
Android and iOS, the command line, privacy, an FAQ and troubleshooting.
docs/README.md is the wiki's home page.
scripts/publish-wiki.sh, ported from proton-drive-linux, checks every
link in docs/ and README.md, rewrites links between pages to wiki page
names and copies the images they show. The Wiki workflow runs the check
on pull requests and publishes on every push to main.
images/ holds library, title and episode screenshots from the desktop
and Android apps, and the logo.
Adapt sign-in to the 0.8 account API and use what it adds:
- Key passphrases are KeyPassphrases now, wiped on drop. The stored
session keeps its JSON shape and converts on unlock.
- The mailbox password is checked with AccountClient::unlock(), one
core/v4/users request instead of loading every address, and a wrong
one is recognised as ProtonError::KeysLocked instead of any
InvalidOperation.
- KeysLocked from a resumed session counts as signed out: the mailbox
password changed, and only signing in again derives passphrases that
unlock the keys.
- A sign-in Proton answers with code 2028 (Blocked) says so, instead of
showing the server text that claims the app version is outdated.
Also picked up without code changes: a token refresh that outlives its
caller and is never replayed (0.8.2).
Anime releases often carry two subtitle tracks in one language, the
dialogue and a "Signs & Songs" track, and the second is as often as not
the one marked default or forced. mpv, picking by language, played it.
pstr_core::subtitles reads a track's name and forced flag for whether it
is the dialogue, and every client asks it once per file, after mpv has
made its own pick, whether to switch to a track in the same language
that is. A subtitle track the viewer chose by name stays, and subtitles
that are off stay off.
MPVKit's MoltenVK context reads the layer's drawableSize only when mpv
builds its video output and reports no resize after that (mpvkit/MPVKit#3).
A player opened upright and turned on its side went on drawing the upright
frame into a corner of the landscape drawable. The view now tells the
player when its drawable changes, and once the size settles the player
rebuilds mpv's output by turning the picture off and on, as the background
already does. The vid writes run in order off the main thread.
fc-match reports a variable font's named instance in the high 16 bits of
%{index}. Fedora's variable Noto Sans CJK answered 262144, egui read that
as a face index, and panicked on the font it could not parse. Keep only
the face, and parse the fallback with skrifa first so a font egui cannot
read is left out instead.
Fixes#1
The app is listed in the TV launcher with a banner, and neither a touch
screen nor leanback is required. While the controls are down the player
takes D-pad left and right as a ten-second seek, the middle button as
bringing the controls up, and play/pause and space as they say.
A BGProcessingTask runs the same crawl_for_news no sooner than every six
hours, when iOS chooses. A processing task rather than an app refresh,
since a crawl of a large share does not fit in thirty seconds.
NewEpisodesWorker runs crawl_for_news every six hours on a network with
the battery not low, and posts one notification per show, grouped. A
setting under Playback turns it off and cancels the schedule.
crawl_for_news crawls the shares due a look that were crawled here
before, and returns per title how many files first appeared during it and
the first of them. A share crawled for the first time is left out, since
every file in it is new.
