Backend:
- Add mediahive/players.py with cross-platform player detection:
- Windows: MPC-BE, MPC-HC, VLC, PotPlayer, mpv (registry + known paths)
- macOS: IINA, VLC (/Applications bundle scanning)
- Linux: VLC, SMPlayer (PATH via which)
- Add GET /api/players endpoint returning detected players
- Extend POST /api/roots/{id}/play to accept player_id and player_custom_cmd
- Make MPC-BE web UI port configurable via ?port= query param
Frontend:
- Add player selection to settings (localStorage, per-client)
- Two-column layout: player list (9.5em) + contextual options panel
- Contextual options: Custom Command input, MPC Web UI Port input
- Empty MPC port disables all Web UI polling/connection attempts
- MPC-BE polling only runs when MPC family player is selected and port is set
- useMediaWebSocket: shallowRef mediaIndex/tasks/loading/error/connected
to eliminate Proxy overhead on the entire library data structure.
- useMediaWebSocket: replace per-task setTimeout leak with single 3s
sweep interval for completed task cleanup.
- App.vue: remove {deep:true} watcher on mediaIndex; shallow ref change
is sufficient to trigger search worker sync.
- useGamepadNavigation: rAF only when gamepads are connected; idle
fallback to 500ms setTimeout to stop permanent 60fps CPU drain.
- useKeyboardNavigation: deduplicate synced scroll rAF requests to
prevent overlapping animation frames.
- MediaDetail/SeriesFullView/CollageHero: pause, clear src, and load()
video elements on unmount and before ref replacement to release
decoder/memory resources.
- MediaDetail/SeriesFullView: clear all volume fade intervals on
unmount to stop interval timer leaks.
Replace the fragile per-row tail/maxVirtual state with a clean global-
metrics approach:
- Measure cardWidth, stride, paddingLeft, viewportWidth, rightDeadzone
once from the first synced row; use the same values for all rows.
- Per-row max scroll computed purely from math:
max(0, paddingLeft + (N-1)*stride - maxVisibleLeft)
where maxVisibleLeft = viewportWidth - cardWidth - rightDeadzone.
- Global virtual offset (syncedRowsCurrentOffset/targetOffset) is shared
across all rows; each row clamps independently in applySyncedRowScroll.
- Tail is a global constant (= rightDeadzone) applied to all rows.
- Fix scrolling-back bug: desiredOffset was stuck at currentOffset when
moving left; now always computed from anchor column position.
- Avoid full animation sweep on view entry: init current/target offset
from existing DOM scrollLeft on first use.
Also removes per-row --sync-row-max-virtual CSS var and simplifies
.media-row padding to use only --sync-row-tail.
- Tail is now computed and applied per-row instead of globally.
- Right-side-only tail padding so item positions don't shift when tail grows.
- Removed anchor-row clamping from effectiveAnchorOffset and targetOffset;
each row independently clamps the shared virtual offset.
- Rows that fit entirely on screen (maxOffset == 0) keep left alignment.
- Short rows retain their scrolled position when focus moves to longer rows.
Fixes erratic scrolling and zig-zag when navigating across rows of different
lengths in movie/series/search categories.
When clicking a search result, showDetail navigates to the detail page.
The route.fullPath watcher then clears searchQuery, which propagates to
Header's localSearch watcher, which emits @search='', which calls
updateSearchQuery(''). This in turn called clearSearch(), which did a
router.replace() to the category page because it didn't check whether
the current route actually had a search query.
The fix: in clearSearch(), if there's no search query in the current
URL, just clear reactive state and return without navigating. This
breaks the circular flow that was overwriting the detail-page
navigation.
Remove the separate Play and Info buttons from the CollageHero featured
item. All collage items (including the featured one) are now uniform
<a href> links that navigate to the detail page.
- CollageHero: remove hasResumePosition prop, play/info emits, and
associated play button logic
- App.vue: remove @play and @info bindings from CollageHero
- Delete unused HeroSection.vue component and its styles
MediaCard, MediaRow, CollageHero, HeroSection, and MediaDetail cast
cards now render as <a> tags with real hrefs. Modified clicks
(ctrl+click, middle-click) navigate natively, enabling open-in-new-tab
and link copying. Plain left-clicks continue through the existing
showDetail flow for side-effects like focus-state saving.
When typing in the search bar on a detail page, navigating to search
results would trigger restoreFocusForPage(), which focused the 'last
viewed' card and interrupted typing. Skip focus restoration whenever
the search input is currently the active element.
