- Outer view slides down on initial mount (200ms, 12px)
- Each tab content (albums, artists, tracks) slides up on tab change
- Uses {#key activeTab} to re-trigger transition on tab switch
- Simple transition without spinner fadeout logic
When switching tabs, the loading spinner now animates with slide-down
transition (200ms, 12px) using {#key activeTab} to re-trigger on tab change.
This completes the animation flow: spinner slides down -> fadeout -> content slides up
Wrap entire FavoritesView in ViewTransition with direction="down" so the
initial view (header + spinner) slides down on first load.
Complete flow:
0. Initial view appears with slide-down transition (200ms, 12px)
1. Loading spinner shows while syncing
2. When sync completes, spinner fades out (200ms)
3. Content appears with slide-up transition (200ms, 12px)
- Add ViewTransition wrapper to AlbumDetailView (200ms, 12px slide up)
- Add ViewTransition to FavoritesView content sections (tracks, albums, artists, playlists)
- Add spinner fadeout animation (200ms) before content transition in FavoritesView
- Both loading spinner and playlists loading spinner now fade out smoothly
This ensures favorites sync properly across all views (album detail,
continue listening, etc.) by using local persistence as the source
of truth for UI, with API calls for actual operations.
Backend (Rust):
- Add favorites_cache.rs module with SQLite tables:
- favorite_tracks (track_id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY)
- favorite_albums (album_id TEXT PRIMARY KEY)
- favorite_artists (artist_id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY)
- Add Tauri commands for cache operations:
- get_cached_favorite_* - read from local cache
- cache_favorite_* / uncache_favorite_* - add/remove single items
- sync_cached_favorite_* - bulk sync from API data
- clear_favorites_cache - for logout
Frontend:
- Rewrite favoritesStore.ts to use persistence:
- loadFavorites(): Load from cache first, then sync from API
- toggleFavorite(): API call first → update cache on success
- No optimistic updates - UI shows loading state until confirmed
- Rewrite albumFavoritesStore.ts with same pattern
- Create artistFavoritesStore.ts for artist favorites
- Update +page.svelte to load all favorites on login
- Update FavoritesView to sync cache when loading from API
Sync strategy:
- On login: Fetch from Qobuz API → sync to local cache
- On toggle: API call → on success → update local cache → notify UI
- FavoritesView reads from API and syncs local cache
- All other views read from local cache (instant UI)
Issues fixed:
- playbackService was bypassing the favorites store, causing UI desync
- Album favorites weren't loaded on login (only track favorites were)
- No visual feedback while favorite API call was in progress
Changes:
- Add toggling state tracking to favoritesStore and albumFavoritesStore
- Add isTrackToggling() and isAlbumToggling() exports
- Prevent double-toggle while API call is in progress
- Update TrackRow and AlbumCard to show pulse animation while toggling
- Update playbackService to use store's toggle (centralized API calls)
- Load both track and album favorites on login
- Remove problematic $effect that ran loadPlaybackPreferences() on every
render, causing a state update loop and visual flicker
- The function is already called in onMount, so the duplicate was redundant
- Add ViewTransition wrapper for consistent subtle animation (200ms fade+slide)
- Only navigate to search page after 3 characters typed
- Sync still happens immediately from 1st character
- Remove auto-navigate on focus (let user type first)
- Add ViewTransition component for reusable subtle animations
- Apply 200ms fade+slide transition to SearchView
cc
- Replace search button with actual text input in sidebar
- Add X button to clear search when text is present
- Sync sidebar input 1:1 with SearchView input (bidirectional)
- Typing in sidebar navigates to search page and triggers search
- Clearing sidebar input resets search page to standby state
- Add subscribeSearchQuery and setSearchQuery to searchState store
cc
Redesigned dropdown architecture:
- Menu uses position:fixed instead of absolute
- Menu rendered outside dropdown container (sibling, not child)
- Position calculated in pixels before menu opens
- Completely removes menu from document flow
This eliminates the momentary scroll flash that occurred when
dropdowns opened and temporarily expanded the page.
cc
- Header now outside .track-sections.virtualized (like LocalLibraryView)
- Use calc() height for virtualized section to give explicit dimensions
- Removes complex flex/absolute positioning that was breaking layout
- Add track list header with columns: #, Title, Album, Duration,
Quality, Favorite icon, Download icon
- Album column is hidden when grouping by album (redundant)
- Add getTrackAlbum and showAlbum props to VirtualizedTrackList
- Style matches PlaylistDetailView for consistency
Previously, streaming tracks could not be resumed after pause timeout
because current_audio_data was never set for streaming playback.
Changes:
- Store BufferedMediaSource in current_streaming_source for streaming tracks
- On resume, check if streaming source has complete data and use it
- Clear streaming source on Stop and when switching to non-streaming play
- Log buffered bytes when streaming not complete yet
This allows users to pause streaming tracks and resume them after the
download completes, instead of getting "no audio data available" error.

- Use outlined style for Clear All button (consistent with others)
- Simplified description text
1. Play button fix: After resuming on cast device, update playerStore.isPlaying
so the UI shows the correct playing state immediately.
2. Disconnect handoff: When disconnecting from Chromecast/DLNA while playing:
- Captures current track and position from cast state
- Shows confirm dialog asking if user wants to continue locally
- If yes, starts local playback and seeks to saved position
- If no, just resets player state
This provides seamless transitions in both directions:
- Local → Cast: auto-resumes with position
- Cast → Local: asks user, then resumes with position
When user connects to a Chromecast/DLNA device while local playback is
active, the local stream was conflicting with the cast stream.
Now connectToDevice():
1. Captures current track info and position
2. Stops local playback completely
3. Establishes the cast connection
4. Automatically resumes the track on the cast device
5. Seeks to the saved position (if > 5 seconds)
This provides seamless handoff from local to cast playback.

- Keep background only for local badge (HardDrive icon)
- Add console logging when selecting artist to debug mismatch:
- Shows selected artist name (original and normalized)
- Shows which albums match
- Shows artist data from the artists array
- Add Local and Offline cache filters to the filter panel
- Icons: HardDrive for local, Qobuz logo for offline cache
- Remove CSS filter from Qobuz badge icon (display as-is with proper size)
- Fix alphabetical index scroll to work within the artist list container
- Add scroll reference binding to artist-list-scroll
- Fix group header ID (was duplicating prefix)
- Include multi-artist albums when selecting an artist:
- Exact match on album artist
- Partial match (artist name appears in album artist string)
- Split by common separators (,&feat.ft.featuring, etc.)
- Move alphabetical index from vertical (right) to horizontal (top)
- Replace full-width grid with two-column layout:
- Left: Single-column artist list with compact cards and scroll
- Right: Selected artist's albums in a grid
- Hide group dropdown and view mode toggle (kept in code for future use)
- Click artist to select and show their albums (instead of navigating to Qobuz)
- Defaults to alphabetical grouping and grid view
Albums now show a small badge indicating their source:
- HardDrive icon for local files (source='user')
- Qobuz logo for offline cached content (source='qobuz_download')
Badge appears in bottom-right corner of album artwork.
Flatpak uses the <releases> section in metainfo.xml to display the
application version. Added a placeholder release entry and updated
the workflow to inject the actual version and date during build.
When deleting a cached track (individually, via clear all, or via LRU
eviction), the audio file was deleted but cover.jpg remained orphaned.
Now the system removes the entire album folder if no audio files remain,
and recursively removes the artist folder if it also becomes empty.
- Add getTrackOfflineCacheStatus prop to HomeView
- Pass downloadStatus and downloadProgress to TrackRow
- Use reactive cache status function that depends on downloadStateVersion
Tracks in Continue Listening now correctly show their cached state.
Include downloadStateVersion in the each loop key to force re-render
when offline cache state changes, fixing tracks showing gray icons
even when cached.
- Add preview (play) button to suggested tracks
- Remove pagination info for cleaner UX ("Showing X of Y")

The build_vector function was calling build_from_musicbrainz and
build_from_qobuz while holding the store lock. These functions also
try to acquire the store lock, causing a deadlock.
Fixed by saving the vectors from the first call and reusing them
for storage, instead of calling the functions again.
Major optimizations:
- Extract only top 5 artists by track frequency instead of all artists
- Use faster rate limiter (200ms) when using MusicBrainz proxy
- Remove skip_vector_build since we now have manageable artist count
Expected load time: ~5-8 seconds for first load with 5 artists
vs previous: 50+ seconds with 50 artists
Instead of showing 'No suggestions available' message, the entire
suggestions section is now hidden when there are no results.
Better UX - less frustrating for users.
When skip_vector_build is enabled, also skip network calls for MBID
resolution of uncached artists. This prevents rate limiting (429) errors
that were causing 55+ second delays on initial load.
Tradeoff: First load with empty cache may have no results, but
subsequent loads will be instant using cached data.
- Add skip_vector_build config option to SuggestionConfig
- When true, skips ensure_vector calls (which can be very slow)
- Uses only cached/existing vectors for similarity search
- Frontend now uses skip_vector_build=true for initial load
- Add timestamped logging helper in frontend component
- Move MBID resolution from frontend to backend
- Eliminates multiple sequential IPC calls
