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.

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.
