Add the ability to hide irrelevant or empty categories in Xtream playlists.
Users can now manage category visibility through a dialog accessible from
the sidebar header in both VOD/Series and Live TV views.
Features:
- New category management dialog with search filter and select/deselect all
- Visibility settings persisted to database per playlist
- Hidden categories are filtered from sidebar navigation
- New categories added during playlist refresh default to visible
- Database migration for existing installations
Files changed:
- Database: schema.ts, connection.ts (hidden column + migration)
- Backend: category.events.ts, main.preload.ts (IPC handlers)
- Frontend: new dialog component, store method, UI integration
- Translations: en.json
- Documentation: docs/architecture/category-management.md
Reorder imports and remove an unused duplicate to improve clarity and
consistency. Reformat multi-argument and long console/log calls,
return objects and function arguments across multiple lines to keep
within line width and improve readability. Update array/object
literals and error handling pushes to use consistent multi-line
formatting. These changes are purely stylistic and do not alter
behavior; they make the code easier to read and maintain.
Update translations and refactor StalkerPortalImportComponent to use
Angular signals and readonly/dependency-injected readonly properties.
- Add new i18n keys: LOADING_SEASONS and NO_EPISODES; adjust
PLAYBACK_ERROR punctuation.
- Replace EventEmitter @Output with a signals-based readonly output and
mark form, constants and flags as readonly.
- Switch to inject() style for services and mark many injected fields
private/readonly to clarify intent.
- Replace DataService import with STALKER_SERIAL_NUMBER token import.
- Improve logging formatting, whitespace and minor code cleanup.
- Minor template/style whitespace fixes.
These changes modernize the component for better immutability,
improve DX with clearer logging, and add missing user-facing
translation strings.
Refactor stalker-series-view template to guard fields with conditionals
so that only available metadata is displayed. Replace selectedItem() with
displayItem() to use the updated selection accessor. Add checks for
director, actors, year/release date, genre/genres_str, imdb and kinopoisk
ratings to avoid showing empty labels.
Enhance stalker-portal-import component by adding reactive form fields
for serial/device IDs and signatures, importing MatProgressSpinnerModule,
and wiring TranslateService and StalkerSessionService into the component.
Include a small loading-container style. These changes prepare the UI for
improved import UX and safer rendering of optional series metadata.
Reset EPG fields when epgProgram becomes null to avoid stale
displayed durations and ensure consistent behavior when no program
is available.
Improve channel list container and item styling:
- hide horizontal overflow to prevent unexpected scrollbars
(scroll-viewport, #all-channels, .channel-list).
- add empty-favorites layout and hint styles for clearer empty
state presentation.
- refactor channel-list-item SCSS: introduce structured layout
(.channel-list-item, .channel-content, .channel-logo,
.channel-details), apply responsive truncation rules and font
imports, add hover/active visuals and dark-theme support, and
tweak drag-icon spacing.
These changes fix UI glitches (stale EPG, horizontal scrollbars)
and modernize the channel list presentation for better readability
and theming.
Save and restore favorited and recently viewed Xtream items when
deleting and re-importing playlist content.
- Return favoritedXtreamIds and recentlyViewedXtreamIds from
deleteXtreamPlaylistContent so callers can capture user data before
.
- Add restoreXtreamUserData to the database service to allow restoring
favorites and recently viewed entries after a refresh.
- Query and collect xtreamIds and timestamps for favorites and recently
viewed items in the backend before deleting content.
- Persist the captured user data to localStorage in the recent playlists
component so it can be used to restore state after re-importing the
playlist.
- Keep existing playlist metadata update flow intact.
This prevents loss of user-specific favorites and recent history when
refreshing Xtream playlists.
- Track list items by start+stop to avoid incorrect reuse of DOM
nodes when program time ranges change.
- matListItemLine with matListItemTitle and add
program-title class to ensure proper styling and layout of titles.
- Add left margin to item label for visual spacing.
- Update imports to use shared-interfaces barrel to simplify paths.
- Remove unused OnDestroy and related ipc cleanup; epg list no longer
manages EPG IPC listeners directly.
- Introduce setEpgAvailableFlag dispatch when handling EPG data to
expose availability state; clear current EPG program via
resetActiveEpgProgram when no programs are returned.
- Remove direct Store usage from EpgService and update BehaviorSubject
flow to set epgAvailable=false on error.
- Clean up unused imports and minor formatting.
These changes fix rendering glitches, improve state clarity for EPG
availability, simplify imports, and tidy up lifecycle responsibilities.
a dedicated refresh button and workflow for Xtream in the
recent playlists UI. Show a refresh icon only when the playlist has a
serverUrl. For Xtream playlists, prompt the user with a confirmation
dialog, delete locally cached categories and streams, show a toast that
the refresh started, and navigate to the playlist to trigger re-import.
Keep existing refresh IPC logic for non-Xtream (M3U/local) playlists.
Also add English translations for the Xtream refresh tooltip and dialog
messages, and surface errors via snackbar on failure.
This enables safe re-importing of remote Xtream playlists while preserving
favorites and recent items.
