Episode tiles were keyed by season/episode index only, so switching
series reused the DOM: text bindings updated but <video> elements were
kept, and browsers ignore patched <source> children without load() —
the previous series' reels kept playing.
- Key SeriesFullView by item id so a series switch fully remounts it.
- Include a seriesIdentity (id, else root_id+title) in episode tile
keys so tiles/videos remount even on an in-place series swap.
- Reset episode cursor, audio owner and preview startup timers when
the series identity changes, and re-gate video mounting.
- Add data-nav-entry-col-from-above so moving down from the season
selector always focuses the first episode instead of the tile
visually closest to the selected season poster; moving back up
still returns to the current season.
- Require recent real mouse movement before treating mouseover as
mouse intent: scroll/re-render under a stationary cursor no longer
activates mouse mode, so sideways season browsing no longer loses
focus to the episode tile under the parked pointer.
- Windows portable ZIP remains, but has been fixed so that it isn't poisoned by being a web download
- Velopack installer offered on all platforms: Linux AppImage, Windows setup.exe, Mac setup.pkg
- Mac updated to Qt6 which has a modern Chromium as opposed to Qt5 that didn't
- Application log now shown on settings panel
- Automated cross-platform builds via Gitea actions
Reviewed-on: #1
- Fix merged playback-state dropping season/episode, which broke series
resume restore entirely.
- Track watch progress per episode (episodes map keyed S..E.., with done
markers on completion) while keeping one continue point per series as
the last watched episode, used for spoiler protection and season
selection. MPC-BE tracker resumes from each episode's own position.
- Assumed-playback fallback for any player and server-only mode: a launch
starts a session and the guessed position (base + elapsed, capped at
runtime) is written when frontend activity resumes; the real MPC-BE
tracker overrides guesses via timestamps. Frontend reports input
activity (throttled) via POST /api/activity.
- Ignore watches under 5 minutes in both trackers.
- Episode tiles show a small quadrant-circle watch indicator; near end
counts as fully watched, no data shows nothing.
- Fix episode audio ownership: single audioOwnerKey shared by mouse hover
and keyboard/gamepad focus, no longer clobbered by playback sync;
idle fade can be re-armed by continued activity.
Replace the 3D ring jukebox with a flat curtain browser: selected season
faces the screen as top of the left stack, side cards rotate about their
outer edge and recede into the screen, each side evenly spaced with pitch
adapting to its card count so cards never leave the stage.
- Mount episode videos only after the season switch settles, then
preload=auto + autoplay (avoids mid-animation media setup jank)
- Start videos immediately (no stagger) once an episode is pointed at;
keep staggered starts while navigating the season selector
- Keyboard/gamepad entry into the season row lands on the selected
season via data-nav-entry-col instead of the x-closest card
- Black episode tiles; hidden (ahead-of-cursor) tiles get a sheen and
vignette veil that cross-fades on reveal/conceal
- Nudge season info panel 8px left for balanced gaps
Render only the selected season's episodes; switch via a perspective-arc
poster carousel with floating season info, deferred video loading with
still-image fade-in, and spoiler fade for episodes ahead of the cursor.
Skip ensure-visible and synced-row animations on focus restore, and
snapshot/restore panel scrollTop plus synced-row scrollLeft around
detail navigation so the browse page comes back pixel-identical.
- Observe the video element itself instead of el.closest('.episode-tile'):
ref callbacks can fire before ancestors are attached, so no tile was
ever observed and the visibility allowlist blocked all playback.
- Use a blocklist for off-screen culling (play until reported off-screen)
so observer lag/failure degrades to the old always-on behavior.
- Default to the first season playing on page view again.
- Keep preload="auto" so tiles show a first-frame preview picture;
playback gating already prevents GPU use from inactive videos.
- Stop videos staggered (same 500ms step as startup) on idle stop,
season switch and scroll culling; same for movie page showreels.
- Add useIdlePreviewPlayback composable: stops preview videos after 30s
without input and restarts them staggered on activity; also stops
while the tab is hidden.
- SeriesFullView: no episode videos play until a season is browsed
(keyboard/gamepad focus or mouse hover); only near-viewport tiles of
the active season play (IntersectionObserver); inactive seasons no
longer preload video data; sync is incremental so playing tiles are
not rewound on scroll.
- MediaDetail: header showreel videos use cancellable stagger timers,
pause when scrolled out of view, and honor the idle stop.
- Images: lazy/async decoding on series page posters; content-visibility:
auto on media cards to skip rendering off-screen row items.
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
