Add two new fields to AudioSettings struct:
- stream_first_track: bool flag to enable streaming for uncached tracks
- stream_buffer_seconds: u8 for initial buffer size (1-10 seconds)
Includes:
- Database schema migration for existing users
- Getter/setter methods in AudioSettingsStore
- Tauri commands for frontend integration
- Registration in lib.rs invoke_handler
cpvsc
- Add alsa_hardware_volume to AudioSettings interface
- Add Tauri command set_audio_alsa_hardware_volume
- Add checkbox in Settings (visible only for ALSA Direct + Hw plugin)
- Checkbox disabled by default for maximum compatibility
- Clear tooltip explaining experimental nature and risks
PROBLEM: App crashed on startup with existing databases:
'table audio_settings has no column named alsa_hardware_volume'
CAUSE: ALTER TABLE with 'NOT NULL' constraint fails on SQLite migrations.
FIX:
- Removed NOT NULL from ALTER TABLE statement
- Handle NULL values with unwrap_or(0) in get_settings()
- Defaults to false (disabled) for old databases
Now works with both new and existing databases.
Preparation for hybrid volume control (B+C option):
- New field: alsa_hardware_volume: bool (default: false)
- Database schema updated with migration support
- Setter/getter methods added
When enabled, will attempt to control DAC volume via ALSA mixer.
When disabled (default), in-app volume control is disabled for maximum
compatibility (user controls volume on DAC/amplifier).
Changes all application data paths from qbz-nix to qbz:
- Cache directory: ~/.cache/qbz-nix -> ~/.cache/qbz
- Config directory: ~/.config/qbz-nix -> ~/.config/qbz
- Data directory: ~/.local/share/qbz-nix -> ~/.local/share/qbz
This fixes path inconsistencies between development and production builds
and resolves asset protocol permission issues with downloaded album artwork.
cp
Backend:
- Create config/audio_settings.rs with SQLite persistence
- Store output_device, exclusive_mode, dac_passthrough, sample_rate
- Add Tauri commands: get_audio_settings, set_audio_*
- Register state and commands in lib.rs
Note: Player modification to USE these settings is pending.
See HANDOFF.md for implementation details.
