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
Add a new standalone ContentHero component (template and TS) that
provides a cinematic hero section with backdrop, poster, title,
description, tags/meta/action slots, and a back button event emitter.
The component chooses backdrop or poster as the background, falls back
to a default poster image on load error, and exposes inputs for title,
description, posterUrl, and backdropUrl.
Introduce extensive cinematic styles for the detail view:
- define CSS custom properties for light and dark themes, poster size,
shadows, and color tokens
- implement gradient vignette, layout sizing, and theming via
:host and :host-context(.dark-theme)
- change container sizing behavior to full-height and hide overflow
These changes create a reusable hero UI and themed detail-page styles
to support a Netflix-style streaming detail experience.
Refactor the EPG progress panel template to improve DOM structure and
action handling. Move the top-level panel wrapper and header markup so
the "dismiss all" button is rendered consistently when multiple imports
exist. Reorder imports list and per-item blocks so each import item
contains its own header, icon, url and dismiss button. Restore the
per-item dismiss button and adjust classes to distinguish between the
global dismiss-all and item-level dismiss actions.
These changes simplify markup nesting, fix button placement bugs, and
prepare the template for clearer styling and behavior of active and
queued import items.
Register EPG progress panel component and MatSnackBar in AppComponent,
inject MatSnackBar and show a brief confirmation when all EPG sources
are already fresh. Re-enable keyboard handling in Electron-like
environments by switching the tauri check to window.electron and
restoring the keydown listener. Add new English i18n keys for total
counts and an "EPG is up-to-date" message.
Why:
- Expose EPG progress panel so it can be used in the app template.
- Provide user feedback when EPG sync finds no stale sources via a
transient snackbar message.
- Restore cross-platform keyboard shortcuts by detecting electron
instead of the commented-out tauri guard.
- Add missing translations used by the UI.
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.
Update info-overlay template to read simplified EPG fields and
avoid indexing into arrays for title, icon and description so bindings
are resilient and clearer:
- Use epgProgram?.iconUrl instead of epgProgram?.icon?.[0]?.src
- Use epgProgram?.title instead of epgProgram?.title?.[0]?.value
- Use epgProgram?.desc instead of epgProgram?.desc?.[0]?.value
- Guard description rendering with epgProgram?.desc
Adjust multi-epg header layout and add search UI styles to support
desktop window chrome and draggable regions:
- Add left padding to #epg-navigation for macOS traffic lights, enable
backdrop drag via -webkit-app-region: drag and set z-index to keep
header above content.
- Exclude interactive elements (buttons, search inputs) from drag by
applying -webkit-app-region: no-drag to maintain native interactions.
- Add extensive styles for a channel search container (search input,
icons, clear button, filter count, animations) and scaffold a program
search container.
These changes improve robustness of EPG data rendering and add styled
search controls while ensuring proper window dragging behavior on
desktop builds.
Introduce a standalone EpgProgressPanelComponent with template and
bindings to show active, completed and queued EPG imports. The new
component:
- provides a header with title and optional "dismiss all" button when
multiple imports exist.
- lists active/completed imports with status icon, URL display,
dismiss button, and conditional progress bar for loading state.
- shows stats (channels/programs) or error text when available.
- renders a queued section with positions and dismiss controls.
- wires to EpgProgressService observables (imports, visibility and
counts) and implements helper getters (activeImports).
This adds UI for import progress feedback and controls so users can
monitor and manage EPG import operations. Files added:
- epg-progress-panel.component.ts
- epg-progress-panel.component.html
