- Update "Streaming Only" description to be less technical:
"Disables temporary cache. Not recommended without a fast connection.
Offline library tracks always play first."
- Fix account card vertical centering with explicit align-self on
avatar, info container, and logout button
Adds UI toggle for streaming_only mode that skips L1/L2 cache writes.
When enabled, tracks are streamed fresh each time but offline cache
still works for downloaded tracks (local-first principle).
Add streaming_only setting that skips L1+L2 cache writes while still
respecting offline cache (local-first). When enabled:
- download_and_stream() skips final cache.insert()
- Standard download path skips cache.insert()
- Offline cache continues to work normally
This reduces storage usage for users who prefer pure streaming.
- Clear both L1 memory and L2 disk caches when quality setting changes
This ensures cached tracks at wrong quality are removed
- Fix device name not showing in popup on first hover
Now refreshes status on each hover instead of only when null
- Add quality downgrade indicator when stream quality is lower than
track's original quality (shows yellow arrow with tooltip)
- Store original track quality values for comparison with actual stream
Issue #34 - Display actual stream quality, not track metadata
Backend changes:
- Add sample_rate and bit_depth to PlaybackEvent
- Add stream quality tracking to SharedState
- Extract bit_depth from FLAC/M4A headers in streaming path
- Player sets stream quality when decoding audio
Frontend changes:
- Update PlaybackEvent interface with new fields
- Update currentTrack with actual stream quality from backend
This allows the UI to show the actual quality being played (e.g., 44.1kHz
when streaming a 192kHz track at CD Quality) instead of the track's
maximum advertised quality.
Issue #34 - Max quality setting not respected
Changes:
- Remove 'Prefer Highest Available' toggle (was dead code, conflicted with quality dropdown)
- Clear playback cache (L1+L2) when streaming quality changes
- Show toast notification when cache is cleared
- Add description to streaming quality setting
- Update i18n for new messages (en/es)
This ensures the quality setting takes effect immediately, important for:
- Users with metered internet connections
- Users with hardware sample rate limitations (e.g., DACs limited to 96kHz)
The Qobuz API respects format_id and downsamples server-side, so this
change guarantees the correct quality is fetched for new streams.
- Log requested vs returned format_id and sample_rate in get_stream_url_with_fallback
- Log quality_str, parsed quality, and format_id in play_track and prefetch_track commands
- Add console.log in getStreamingQuality for frontend debugging
This will help diagnose why 192kHz is played despite lower quality settings.
- Add branch workflow section explaining pre-release integration
- Clarify that all PRs must target pre-release, not main
- Update maintainer procedure for new workflow
- Add release procedure section
- Add TrackReplacementModal to search for replacement tracks
- Add onFindReplacement action to TrackMenu context menu
- Show replacement option only for owned playlists with unavailable tracks
- Replacement searches by track title + artist
- Shows quality info (bit depth, sample rate) to help user choose
- Supports preview playback before confirming
- Replace old track with new one in playlist
Also fix tooltip for unavailable tracks to show a complete message
instead of "is no longer available" (now shows "Track no longer
available in Qobuz library")
- Add isUnavailable prop to TrackRow to show AlertCircle instead of track number
- Show unavailable icon only for user's own playlists (not Qobuz official playlists)
- Gray out unavailable tracks in both owned and non-owned playlists
- Remove all interactions for unavailable tracks in non-owned playlists
- Keep only "remove from playlist" option for unavailable tracks in owned playlists
- Create unavailableTracksStore for persisting unavailable track IDs to localStorage
- Load unavailable tracks on app startup in bootstrap.ts
- Auto-mark tracks as unavailable when playback fails with TrackUnavailable error
- Add streamable field to PlaylistTrack and DisplayTrack interfaces
- Add isTrackRemovedFromQobuz() check for tracks with streamable: false
- Show red AlertCircle icon for unavailable tracks
- Gray out and apply grayscale filter to unavailable track rows
- Limit menu actions to only 'Remove from Playlist' for removed tracks
- Hide favorite and download buttons for removed tracks
- Keep wrapper interactive for context menu access
Backend:
- Add TrackUnavailable error type for tracks removed from Qobuz
- Validate stream URL response - detect missing URL with restrictions
- Add SampleRestrictedByRightHolders to restriction check
- Return specific error when track is unavailable vs quality unavailable
Frontend:
- Detect track unavailable errors in playTrack()
- Show friendly toast: Track title is no longer available
- Auto-skip to next track in queue after 500ms delay
- Add i18n translations (en/es) for trackUnavailable message
ToS acceptance was stored in localStorage which gets cleared on app
updates, causing users to re-login frequently. Now stores ToS state
in SQLite (~/.local/share/qbz/legal_settings.db) which survives
updates.
- Add legal_settings.rs with SQLite storage for ToS acceptance
- Update qobuzLegalStore.ts to use Rust invoke commands
- LoginView now loads ToS from Rust before auto-login check
- Migration from localStorage for existing users
Closes#31
Digital outputs like S/PDIF transmit audio as-is without DA/AD conversion,
making them bit-perfect by nature. Now iec958: devices get the BP badge.
Updated group label to "Bit-perfect (Hardware / Digital)" to reflect
both direct hardware access (hw:) and digital outputs (iec958:).
- Add check_alsa_utils_installed and get_linux_distro Tauri commands

- Updated PKGBUILDs to list alsa-utils as optdepend
Backend changes:
- Add device_bus and is_hardware fields to AudioDevice
- Parse PipeWire Flags (HARDWARE) and device.bus property from pactl output
Frontend changes:
- DeviceDropdown now supports both ALSA and PipeWire backends
- ALSA grouping: Defaults, Bit-perfect, Plugin Hardware, Other

- BP badge shown for USB Audio devices in PipeWire mode
Backend changes:
- Add supported_sample_rates field to AudioDevice struct
- Detect common audio sample rates (44.1, 48, 88.2, 96, 176.4, 192, 352.8, 384 kHz)
- Use CPAL's supported_output_configs() to check rate support for hw: devices
Frontend changes:
- Display sample rates as subtitle in DeviceDropdown (e.g., "44.1, 48, 96, 192 kHz")
- Only shown for bit-perfect devices where detection is available
- Search not sensitive to sample rates field (per user request)
- New DeviceDropdown component with grouped options:
- Defaults (System Default, default ALSA)
- Bit-perfect (Auto-detected) - hw:X,Y devices with BP badge
- Plugin Hardware - plughw:X,Y devices
- Other Outputs - remaining devices
- Only shows for ALSA Direct backend, other backends use regular dropdown
- Pure UI change, no backend modifications
- Artist names in sidepanel now animate with ticker effect on hover when text overflows
- Each album section (Discography, EPs & Singles, Live Albums) now has a sort dropdown
- Sort options: Default, Newest, Oldest, A-Z, Z-A
- Use sorted arrays for rendering instead of raw grouped arrays
- Group albums by category: Discography, EPs & Singles, Live Albums
- Exclude tributes and compilations (others) from display
- Each section has its own header that scrolls with content
- Updated footer: "To view compilations and other content, go to..."
- All content scrolls together (sections + footer)
- Add no-outer-scroll class when sidepanel mode is active
- Set up proper flex container hierarchy for full height:
- .favorites-view becomes flex column container
- .content gets flex: 1 with min-height: 0
- ViewTransition wrapper gets flex: 1 via :global selector
- Fix negative margins to match parent padding (was -32px, now -8px/-18px)
- Reduce artist column width to 240px (matches LocalLibrary)
- Fix album column right padding to 8px
- Add artist count header like LocalLibrary
- Remove sticky positioning from group headers (caused overlap)
- Restructure albums area with scroll wrapper containing both grid and footer
- Footer now scrolls with album grid (visible at bottom after scrolling)
- Match LocalLibrary CSS patterns for proper independent scrolling
- Fix toggle button to use control-btn icon-only style (matches Library)
- Add proper background/hover states to the toggle button
- Fix two-column layout for independent scrolling:
- Artist list scrolls independently from albums grid
- Added scroll optimization properties (overscroll-behavior, contain)
- Adjusted padding and margins for edge-to-edge layout
- Increased album card grid size to 180px (matches LocalLibrary)
Implements a two-column sidepanel view for Favorites > Artists:
- Left column shows artists grouped A-Z with sticky headers
- Right column shows selected artist's Discography albums
- Albums are filtered to show only studio albums (not EPs, Singles, Live)
- Proper AlbumCard with artwork, favorite button, and quality badge
- Footer link to navigate to full artist page for other album types
- Alpha index in toolbar for quick navigation
- Toggle button to switch between grid and browse views
- View mode persists to localStorage
Also exports categorizeAlbum from qobuzAdapters for reuse.
- Add Kurosaki light theme (cream/gold color palette)
- Add theme type filter button (dark/light/all) to cycle through themes
- Make Offline Library and Storage sections collapsible with descriptions
- Compact Account section with inline layout and subscription badge
- Navigation items now use i18n translation keys for reactive labels
The popover appeared behind other elements when the sidebar was
collapsed because it was inside the .content div which has
overflow:hidden. Moving it outside the aside tag resolves this.
- Use nav-item style with heart icon (like Home)
- Add chevron button next to label for expand/collapse
- Show indented sub-items (Artists, Albums, Tracks) when expanded
- Collapsed sidebar shows heart icon with popover menu
- Restructure Favorites to use same layout as Playlists section
- Use section header with collapse button on the right
- Use NavigationItem components for sub-items
- Match padding, fonts, and hover states
- Change nested button to span with role="button" for favorites chevron
- Add localStorage persistence for collapse state of:
- Favorites section (expanded/collapsed)
- Playlists section (collapsed/expanded)
- Local Library section (collapsed/expanded)
- Folder collapse state intentionally not persisted
- Add chevron button to expand/collapse Favorites sub-items
- Show Artists, Tracks, Albums as nested items when expanded
- Respect user's tab order from favorites preferences
- Add popover menu for collapsed sidebar mode
- Use translations for all labels
Adds streamable field throughout the stack to detect tracks that have
been removed from Qobuz but still appear in playlists/favorites:
Backend (Rust):
- QueueTrack: add streamable field with default true
- PersistedQueueTrack: add streamable for session persistence
- radio.rs: log warning when non-streamable track is encountered
Frontend:
- BackendQueueTrack: add streamable? field
- QobuzTrack, Track, PlaylistTrack types: add streamable
- qobuzAdapters.ts: include streamable in track conversions
- trackActions.ts: all queue builders now include streamable
- +page.svelte: debug logging includes streamable field
This prepares the infrastructure for graying out unavailable tracks
in the UI (to be implemented when we can reproduce the issue).
Refs: User report about "Failed to fetch audio" for removed tracks
When the last track in the queue finishes playing, now properly:
- Stop playback via backend
- Clear current track (removes "now playing" indicator)
- Reset player bar state
FavoritesView Albums:
- Change from combined sort modes to sortBy + sortDirection
- Click option to select, click again to toggle direction
- Show arrow indicator on selected option
PlaylistDetailView:
- Remove separate Ascending/Descending options
- Integrate direction toggle into each sortable option
- Default and Custom Order remain direction-insensitive
- Reduce filter panel text sizes from 13px to 12px for consistency
- Update artist alpha-index to use same styling as albums/tracks tabs
- Replace boxed buttons with clean text-only alpha letters
- 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.
- Add z-index: 1000 to dropdown-container to appear above sidebar
- Change dropdown alignment from right: 0 to left: 0 for natural
left-to-right opening
- Affects all tabs: Albums, Tracks, Artists
- Fix Favorites Albums group dropdown appearing behind sidebar
(z-index 10 -> 100)
- Persist volume level to localStorage between sessions
- Allow changing volume when nothing is playing (volume
applies when playback starts)
- Add fade/slide transitions when tracks are added or dismissed
- Show success state (checkmark + green highlight) before fade out
- Add track to local state without page reload
- Update sidebar counts via callbacks
- Disable buttons during adding animation
- Add extractAdaptiveArtists() for dynamic seed artist count based on playlist size
- Mix 60% top artists (coherence) + 40% random (discovery) for variety
- Filter duplicates by title+artist, not just track ID
- Catches same song from compilations, live albums, remasters, etc.
- Deduplicate within suggestion pool itself
- Add compact prop to QualityBadge for inline usage in track lists
- Compact mode shows simple text (24bit/96kHz or CD Quality)
- Use golden gradient for hires badges in compact mode
- Update ArtistDetailView to use QualityBadge compact
- Update FavoritesView to use QualityBadge compact
- Update SearchView to use QualityBadge compact
- Remove duplicate CSS and getQualityLabel functions
- LocalLibrary views keep custom format showing codec (FLAC 24/96)
- Use golden gradient (#fbbf24 to #b8860b) with dark text for hires badges
- Increase min-width to 90px for consistent sizing across all badges
- Rename track-row favorite button to avoid CSS conflict with header button
- Header favorite button now properly circular like radio and network buttons
