The media server was starting at app launch and polling every 250ms
even when not using Chromecast/DLNA casting. Now it only starts when
the user actually tries to cast audio.
- Add loading="lazy" decoding="async" to images in AlbumCard, ArtistDetailView
- Convert AlbumCard hover from JS state to CSS :hover (fewer re-renders)
- Reduce IntersectionObserver thresholds from 4 to 1 in ArtistDetailView
- Reduce default audio cache from 500MB to 200MB
- Playback state polling: 1000ms when paused, 250ms when playing
- Audio thread timeout: 500ms when idle, 100ms when playing
- Lyrics interval: self-check to auto-stop when conditions not met
- Add cleanup return to lyrics in +page.svelte
- Add build-and-run.sh and monitor-resources.sh scripts
- Add OPTIMIZATION_PLAN.md documentation
- Switch to GNOME SDK 48 which includes webkit2gtk-4.1
- Install Node.js 20 LTS directly from tarball (no SDK extension needed)
- Install Rust via rustup for latest stable version
- Add flatpak build directories to .gitignore
SDK 24.08 doesn't have javascriptcoregtk-4.1 (uses webkit 6.0).
SDK 23.08 has Rust 1.81 which doesn't support edition2024.
Solution: use SDK 23.08 with webkit2gtk 4.1 but install Rust via rustup.
The zbus 5.x crate requires Rust edition2024 which needs Rust 1.85+.
SDK 23.08 only has Rust 1.81. Upgrade to 24.08 which has a newer Rust.
Also upgrade node extension from node20 to node22.
Linux workflow:
- Remove xdg-portal feature from tauri-plugin-dialog to fix ashpd/zbus version incompatibility
- The ashpd 0.11.0 crate has breaking changes with zbus 5.x
Flatpak workflow:
- Use build-options.append-path instead of shell export to properly set PATH for SDK extensions
- This ensures npm/rust binaries are available in all build commands
- Add api_keys module with store for user-provided credentials (Spotify, Tidal, Discogs)
- Add commands to get/set/clear credentials for each provider
- Update providers to check user credentials first (priority: user > embedded > env)
- Add collapsible API Keys section to SettingsView
- Show status badges (Active, Custom, Not configured) for each provider
- Store user credentials in localStorage with backend sync
- Add option_env! for Discogs, Spotify, Tidal credentials
- Credentials embedded in binary during CI build
- Falls back to runtime env vars for development/user override
- Add secrets to GitHub Actions workflows for Linux and Flatpak builds
- Fix Linux build: add libasound2-dev, libssl-dev
- Fix Flatpak build: use --user flag for flatpak operations
- Mark DLNA/Chromecast casting as complete in ROADMAP
- Note AirPlay as deferred (no Rust RAOP library)
- Add Network Casting section to README features
- Add cast/ module to project structure
- Update v1.0 launch status: all 6 items complete
- Add handleSaveQueueAsPlaylist() to collect queue track IDs
- Wire QueuePanel "Save as Playlist" button to open playlist modal
- Comment out AirPlay commands in lib.rs (RAOP not implemented)
- Comment out AirPlay state initialization
- Move documentation files to qbz-nix-docs/ directory
AirPlay research concluded no viable Rust RAOP library exists.
Feature deferred until custom implementation or library emerges.
See qbz-nix-docs/AIRPLAY_IMPLEMENTATION_STATUS.md for details.
- Remove AirPlay tab from CastPicker (keep code for future)
- Disable AirPlay discovery/polling to reduce network traffic
- Add comprehensive technical brief at docs/AIRPLAY_IMPLEMENTATION_STATUS.md
documenting what's complete, what's missing, and potential solutions
AirPlay discovery code is preserved and working - only the UI and
network calls are disabled. Can be re-enabled once RAOP sender is implemented.
Frontend:
- Add castStore for managing cast state (connect, disconnect, play, pause, etc)
- Update CastPicker to use castStore, show connected device banner with disconnect
- Wire isCastConnected to NowPlayingBar and ExpandedPlayer for visual indicator
- Modify playbackService to cast when connected instead of local playback
DLNA Backend:
- Implement full AVTransport SOAP client with:
- SetAVTransportURI with DIDL-Lite metadata
- Play, Pause, Stop, Seek actions
- RenderingControl SetVolume
- Add dlna_play_track command that fetches stream, downloads audio, and serves via media server
- Share media server between Chromecast and DLNA
