- Auto-focus no longer forces the view back to today on every ribbon
(re)mount: it skips without clearing `lastFocusKey`, and only commits today
when today actually has a programme. Fixes being trapped on the empty-day
state when navigating to a day that has data (Codex P2).
- Pass `archiveDays` to the timeline from the unified live tab (via the shared
`getM3uArchiveDays`), so M3U catch-up "Watch" is gated to the channel's real
window instead of the unlimited `0` default (Codex P2).
- Never fold the on-air programme into a "N short" group chip, so its
`when: 'now'` highlight (and the auto-focus target) survive when zoomed out
(Greptile P2).
- Chunk the channel candidate lookup (500 keys/query) so the bound-parameter
count stays under SQLite's limit on large playlists — the case-insensitive
raw+lower match binds each key up to 4× (Greptile P2).

Replace the vertical EPG list/panel with a single horizontal timeline ribbon
(`app-epg-timeline`) shared across all live surfaces — the M3U player, the
unified live tab, and the Xtream and Stalker layouts. It preloads a multi-day
window and supports scroll, zoom, day navigation, short-programme tiers and
per-state empty/error views; the programme-details dialog is restyled to match
and now shows the channel logo.
Timeline / UI
- Auto-focus the currently-airing programme on channel select — instant
(`behavior: 'auto'`), centred, and deduped by programme-set identity so the
30s tick / zoom / re-emits never cause flaky re-jumps.
- Wide-tier cards show a dimmed description preview under the title; title and
preview clip on whole lines (`flex-shrink: 0` + `-webkit-line-clamp`), never
mid-line.
- Dynamic bar subtitle: the now-playing / archive programme title instead of a
static "Timeline" label.
- State-aware toolbar: hide Now + zoom when there is no ribbon, and the date
stepper when the channel has no EPG on any day (hidden, not disabled).
- Empty-state fills and centres within the panel area instead of a fixed
min-height that overflowed the compact inline panel and hid the buttons.
EPG current-programme lookup (electron-backend)
- Timezone-aware "airing now" comparison via SQLite `datetime()` (was a lexical
string compare that broke for offset vs UTC `Z` timestamps).
- Unscoped fallback for resolved candidates whose programmes are tagged with an
out-of-scope source (multi-source imports sharing XMLTV ids), so the sidebar
matches the timeline.
- Match channel candidates by the raw (case-sensitive) key as well as `LOWER()`,
since SQLite `LOWER()`/`COLLATE NOCASE` fold only ASCII — fixes Cyrillic /
Greek channel names showing "No program information available".
- Overlap-based day membership (`hasProgramsForDateKey`) so a film spanning
midnight keeps the ribbon on "today" while it airs.
Refactor
- Extract the duplicated channel-list EPG enrichment (progress + side-car map)
into `channel-list-container/epg-enrichment.util.ts`, shared by the
all-channels / groups / favorites / recent views; also fixes recent's and
favorites' unguarded, NaN-prone progress maths.

Adds IMDb rating sort and minimum-rating filtering for Xtream VOD/series catalogs, consolidates refinement controls, and guards rating controls away from Live TV.
- merge origin/master into PR #964 and keep embedded MPV test on the isolated playback sub-entrypoint
- centralize EPG capability through DataService.supportsEpg and update PWA web-e2e expectations
- split BrowserAccessError copy between Electron and PWA diagnostics
Batch removal fanned out per-item read-modify-write calls against the
playlist's recentlyViewed JSON column via Promise.all, racing each other so
only the last write persisted. Group non-Xtream items by playlistId and use
a new removeFromPlaylistRecentlyViewedBatch helper that filters all
identities in a single read-filter-write per playlist.

Two small focused changes from an Angular perf audit.
content-card lazy loading
ContentCard is the building block for catalog grids and rails — Xtream
recently-added (3 rails × 20 = 60 cards on first paint), Xtream/Stalker
search results, unified favorites/recent grids. The poster <img> had
no loading attribute, so every off-screen card eagerly fetched its
poster from the Xtream/Stalker server on initial render. Same fix
already in place on the dashboard rail's separate <img>; mirror it on
the shared ContentCard so every consumer benefits.
Add loading="lazy" decoding="async" to both <img> tags (real poster
and the default-poster fallback). Browser defers off-screen requests;
no JS changes.
OnPush on workspace-sources-filters-panel
The sources filters panel renders one row per filter option and
displays {{ getTypeCount(option.id) }} per row — that method is a
plain Map lookup but fires every CD cycle under default change
detection. The component is signal-only (computed + selectSignal, no
subscribes) so the OnPush conversion is purely additive.

The loading placeholders for live channel rows were inconsistent and
visibly heavier than the real channel-list-item: each module rendered
its own skeleton with a colored card surface, larger padding/radius,
mismatched logo border-radius, and only a single tiny right-side dot
instead of the real 34×34 action buttons. Stalker had no initial-load
skeleton at all.
Extract a shared app-channel-list-item-skeleton that mirrors
channel-list-item 1:1 (transparent surface, 8/10/8/12 padding, 12px
radius, 44×44 logo with 10px radius, optional EPG progress placeholder,
0–3 button placeholders) plus a thin app-channel-list-skeleton wrapper
that renders N rows with deterministic width variance, and route every
live-tv loading state through it (m3u channel-list-loading-state,
xtream portal-channels-list, stalker live-stream-layout via a derived
isInitialChannelsLoading signal, and the unified favorites/recent
collection page). Drops the bespoke channel-skeleton-shimmer keyframes
in favor of the shared skeleton-shimmer animation.

Three placeholders were rendering at once when a search filter cleared
both the groups rail and the channel list, and they each used a
different visual treatment:
1. Groups rail (.groups-nav-empty) was bare 0.82rem muted text with no
icon and no hint, and routed through CHANNELS.NO_SEARCH_RESULTS
("No channels found") which is wrong copy for the *groups* column.
2. Channel list (.groups-content-empty-state) was the canonical L4
icon + title + hint pattern (correct).
3. Player area (<app-portal-empty-state>) was a 72px icon at 0.2
opacity, which read as ghosted on dark theme.
Bring the groups rail into the L4 family scaled down for the narrow
column: 28px search_off / folder_off icon at 0.5 opacity, 0.85rem
title, 0.78rem hint at 0.65 opacity, centered. Add a CHANNELS.NO_GROUPS_FOUND
i18n key so the copy reflects the column ("No groups found").
Bump portal-empty-state's icon opacity from 0.2 -> 0.35 and title
opacity from 0.5 -> 0.6 so the player-area placeholder feels present
rather than abandoned.

Audit found 10 list-rendering components (each >150 lines, all using
signal-based state) on default change detection. Default CD re-checks
every binding on every parent CD cycle (mouse moves, EPG progress
ticks, etc.); under OnPush these only re-check when their own signals
change or when explicitly markedForCheck.
All 10 use signals exclusively for state (no manual subscribe-and-mutate
patterns), so the conversion is straightforward and safe.
Components:
- recent-playlists (740L) — homepage playlist list with drag-drop
- vod-details-route (552L) — Xtream VOD detail page
- playlist-switcher (509L) — workspace shell playlist switcher
- season-container (444L) — Stalker/Xtream series episodes (DoCheck preserved)
- stalker-search (362L) — Stalker search results
- search-results (350L) — Xtream search results
- category-management-dialog (199L) — manage Xtream categories
- recently-added (162L) — Xtream recently-added rail
- category-content-view (Catalog) — category browse page
- grid-list (shared) — generic grid renderer used across portals
Tests: 124 passed across all touched lib projects.

The previous clamp(120, 18vw, 180) made the search_off icon visually
compete with the SVG illustrations used for ERROR / EMPTY_CATEGORY,
which is wrong — a no-search-results state is a transient filter view
and should recede compared to a true page-level error.
Drop to clamp(72, 11vw, 112) at 0.45 opacity so the icon is clearly
present but smaller and lighter than the SVG illustrations above it.

When a search filter inside a category produces zero results, the grid
@empty fallback used to render the EMPTY_CATEGORY view ("No content in
this category" with the empty-tv illustration). That message was
misleading — the category itself wasn't empty, only the search filter
excluded everything.
grid-list now takes a searchTerm input and branches the @empty fallback:
when a search is active it renders the NO_SEARCH_RESULTS view with the
parameterised "No results found for {term}" title, otherwise it falls
back to EMPTY_CATEGORY as before. category-content-view derives the
searchTerm signal from the ?q= query param and passes it through.
Also: bump the NO_SEARCH_RESULTS icon from a 64px mat-icon to a clamp()
sized icon (120-180px) at 0.5 opacity so it visually balances with the
SVG illustrations used by the other viewTypes, swap the icon to
search_off (struck-through magnifier) so it reads as "no results"
rather than "search now", and fix the EN i18n typo
("change you search request" -> "change your search request").

Clearing all recents of a given content type fired N concurrent IPC calls,
each opening its own implicit transaction in the recently_viewed table.
For users with hundreds of recently-watched VOD/series rows this added
real overhead even though the UI updates optimistically.
Add a new DB_REMOVE_RECENT_ITEMS_BATCH path end-to-end:
- removeRecentItemsBatch() Drizzle op: one transaction, one prepared
statement reused per row
- Wire through worker → IPC handler → preload → window.electron typings
→ DatabaseService
- UnifiedRecentDataService.removeRecentItemsBatch() groups items by
source. Xtream items go through the new batch IPC. M3U/Stalker items
still go per-playlist because they update a JSON column on the
playlist row, not the recently_viewed table — but they now run in
parallel with the Xtream batch via a single Promise.all.
- Single call site updated: unified-collection-page "Clear all of type"
confirmation handler.
