DLNA POSITION TRACKING:
- Added GetPositionInfo SOAP action to query current playback position
- Added GetTransportInfo SOAP action to get transport state (PLAYING/PAUSED/STOPPED)
- New dlna_get_position command returns position, duration, and transport state
- Added parse_time_string() helper for HH:MM:SS format
FRONTEND INTEGRATION:
- castStore: Added position polling (1s interval) when connected to DLNA
- castStore: New getCastPosition() for UI components
- castStore: Automatic polling start/stop on track play/disconnect
- playerStore: Subscribes to castStore for position updates
- playerStore: Updates currentTime from cast position when casting
This enables the seekbar to display accurate position during DLNA playback.
Seek functionality was already implemented (dlna_seek command).

PROBLEM:
- DLNA device detection and connection worked
- Audio playback on DLNA devices did not work
ROOT CAUSE:
- DIDL-Lite metadata had hardcoded protocolInfo='audio/flac'
- Many DLNA devices silently reject content when protocolInfo
doesn't match the actual MIME type
- No debug logging to diagnose SOAP action failures
FIX:
- Pass actual content_type from Qobuz stream to DIDL builder
- Generate protocolInfo dynamically based on real MIME type
- Add extensive debug logging for:
- MediaServer URL generated
- Content-Type from Qobuz
- Complete DIDL-Lite metadata
- SOAP action responses (SetAVTransportURI, Play)
- Error details when actions fail

Changes the menu action label from "Play later" to "Add to queue"
for better clarity and consistency with standard music player UX.
Updated in:
- AlbumMenu.svelte
- TrackMenu.svelte
- ArtistDetailView.svelte (tracks context menu)
Relates to #21
The previous logic checked total album count (< 10) to decide whether
to compare "X" vs "The X" variants. This failed for artists like
"Traveling Wilburys" (19 total albums, but 0 studio albums).
Now we:
1. Always count studio albums for the initial match
2. If studio albums < 10, search for "The X" variant
3. Compare studio album counts
Example fix:
- "Traveling Wilburys": 19 total, 0 studio albums
- "The Traveling Wilburys": 17 total, 6 studio albums
- Now correctly prefers "The Traveling Wilburys"
When comparing "X" vs "The X" variants, now fetches actual albums
and counts only studio albums (main discography) instead of total
album count. This filters out:
- Tributes (albums by other artists)
- Compilations (greatest hits, best of)
- Unofficial releases (bootlegs, broadcasts)
- Live albums
- EPs and singles
Uses the same categorization logic as the frontend (qobuzAdapters.ts).
This provides cleaner matching, e.g., "The Beatles" with 200+ studio
albums vs "Beatles" tribute compilation with 2 albums.
MusicBrainz often returns names without "The" prefix (e.g., "Beatles",
"Traveling Wilburys") but Qobuz has both variants, with the prefixed
version being the legitimate artist.
New matching logic:
1. Search for exact name match first
2. If no exact match, check for "The X" variant in results
3. If match has <5 albums, search for "The X" specifically and compare
4. Prefer the variant with more albums (likely the real artist)
This fixes navigation to "The Beatles", "The Traveling Wilburys", etc.
Show "Looking up {name}..." toast when clicking on musician links
to provide feedback while the backend resolves the musician.
Also show error toast if lookup fails.
Groups/bands in the sidebar now use the musician resolution flow.
Since bands typically have Qobuz artist pages, they resolve as
confidence=3 (Confirmed) and navigate directly to the artist page.
Wire up onMusicianClick for Members & Former and Collaborators
sections in ArtistDetailView sidebar. Clicking a member now triggers
the musician resolution flow (modal for weak confidence, musician
page for contextual, or artist page for confirmed).
Uses the first role from MusicBrainz relationships or defaults to
"Band Member" / "Collaborator" as the role parameter.
AlbumSummary only has id, title, image, and label fields.
The code was incorrectly trying to access artist and
release_date_original which only exist on the full Album struct.
- Use track.performer for artist_name instead of album.artist
- Set year to None since AlbumSummary doesn't have release_date
- Fix image access since ImageSet is direct field, not Option
- Fix title access since String is direct field, not Option
AlbumCreditsModal:

- Lists known bands/projects (from MusicBrainz)
- Displays explanatory copy based on confidence
- Provides CTA to Artist Page if applicable
- Does NOT show albums, tracks, or deep navigation
- Closes on Escape key or backdrop click
- Add mbAvailable state to track MusicBrainz availability
- Set mbAvailable=false when MB is disabled or API fails
- Wrap entire Relationships section with {#if mbAvailable}
- Only extract labels from albums categorized as 'albums' (Discography)

The playback thread was terminating on pause instead of waiting.
Now uses two separate flags:
- is_playing: controls pause/resume (thread waits when false)
- should_stop: controls full termination (thread exits when true)
This allows the ALSA Direct playback thread to pause and resume
without losing its position or requiring a full restart.
Bit-perfect audio path remains unchanged - only control flow modified.
- Pass track duration from frontend to streaming playback for seekbar
- Add StreamInfo struct with speed measurement during probe
- Implement StreamingConfig::from_speed_mbps() for adaptive buffer sizing
- Add play_streaming_dynamic() method using speed-based buffer config
- Enhanced download logging with progress %, speed (current/avg), and ETA
- Auto-cache streamed tracks for instant replay
The seekbar now shows playback progress during streaming by using
the track's known duration from metadata rather than detecting it
from incomplete audio data.
BREAKING CHANGE: Replace blocking decode_streaming_source with IncrementalStreamingSource
Key improvements:
- IncrementalStreamingSource implements rodio::Source and decodes packets on-demand
- Playback starts immediately after initial buffer (512KB default) fills
- Audio is decoded incrementally while download continues in background
- Reduced initial buffer from 2MB to 512KB for faster startup
- Added fast_start() config option for minimal 256KB buffer
The previous implementation blocked until the ENTIRE file was downloaded
and decoded, making streaming slower than traditional download-first.
Now playback truly starts within ~1 second of initial buffer filling.

Simplified the lossy format detection since only MP3 is clearly lossy
among supported library formats (flac, m4a, wav, aiff, ape, mp3).
m4a can be either ALAC (lossless) or AAC (lossy) so it's not reliable.
- Removed LOSSY_FORMATS array, now only checks for 'mp3'
- Use /mp3.svg icon (text-only, more readable than mp3-cd.svg)
- Simplified tier to just 'mp3' instead of 'mp3-cd' and 'lossy'
MP3 and other lossy formats (aac, m4a, ogg, opus, wma) at CD-like
sample rates (44.1-48kHz) were incorrectly shown as "CD" quality
because bitDepth check came before format check.
Changes:
- Add format prop to QualityBadge, NowPlayingBar, ExpandedPlayer
- Add format field to PlayingTrack interface
- Check for lossy formats BEFORE checking bitDepth/samplingRate
- New 'mp3-cd' tier for lossy formats at CD sample rates
- Uses /mp3-cd.svg icon for this tier
- Add folder popover for collapsed sidebar mode - clicking a folder
button now shows a menu with the playlists inside instead of silently
toggling the expansion state
- Fix folder button color to match other nav items (--text-muted)
- Fix folder button size to match nav items (32px height instead of 40px)
- Add overflow-x: hidden to playlists-scroll to prevent horizontal scroll
Filter panel now auto-closes after 3 seconds of inactivity and when
clicking outside. Added album sorting with three options:
- Album Name (A-Z, Z-A)
- Release Year (ascending, descending)
- Artist Name (A-Z, Z-A)
Sort selection persists within the session and secondary sort by
title is applied when primary sort values match.
- Use size="large" (180px) for all AlbumCard instances
- Change album grids from CSS grid with 1fr to flexbox
- Fix LocalLibrary gap issue by using consistent spacing
- Align VirtualizedAlbumList, ArtistDetailView, SearchView,
FavoritesView, HomeView, and AlbumDetailView
Keep the onPerformerSearch infrastructure in TrackInfoModal and
AlbumCreditsModal but don't pass the prop. Performer names are
now plain text. Re-enable when MusicBrainz allows precise lookups.
Also fixes: sticky tabs in AlbumCreditsModal now work correctly.
Phase 7 quick wins (closes#17):
- Performer names in TrackInfoModal are now clickable
- Clicking a performer searches for their name in Qobuz
- SearchView auto-searches when opened with pre-filled query
- Credits/Review tabs in AlbumCreditsModal stay fixed when scrolling
