d8d36476e6 feat(epg): add global EPG display time offset (#1489)
Adds a global EPG display-time offset (Settings → EPG, whole minutes, ±720) for guides whose provider labels programme times with the wrong timezone. Display-only: parsed XMLTV values, SQLite rows, catch-up URLs and recording snapshots keep the provider's own times, so changing it needs no guide refresh. Closes the global part of #50.

The contract lives in `libs/shared/interfaces/src/lib/epg-display-offset.util.ts` with two equivalent forms: `epgDisplayTimeMs` shifts a programme for display, `epgProviderClockMs` shifts "now" into the provider's clock for every "currently airing" decision — the batched `GET_CURRENT_PROGRAMS_BATCH` lookup takes an explicit `nowMs`, and the channel lists, the Xtream/Stalker previews, the M3U player's current-programme mirror, the unified collection resolver, the dashboard live cards and the recording overlap all pick the same programme the guide renders as "now". Portal short-EPG windows start at the provider's own "now", so under a non-zero offset the Xtream preview surfaces cut their window from the full guide at the provider clock, Stalker short-EPG requests are widened for negative offsets, and every per-stream memory of the previous offset is retired together when the setting changes.

4grayandClaude Fable 5.1 b2ca85172c fix(playback): seek Embedded MPV steps relative to mpv's own position (#1518)
* fix(playback): seek Embedded MPV steps relative to mpv's own position

Arrow keys and the ±10 s buttons in the Embedded MPV player advanced only
about a second per press when pressed repeatedly or held. The shortcuts
already asked for 5 s steps, but `EmbeddedMpvCommandRunner.seekBy` turned
each step into an absolute `seek` computed from `session.positionSeconds`,
which is floored to whole seconds, polled every 500 ms (helper snapshots at
most every 250 ms) and not refreshed by the seek reply. Every press inside
that window therefore landed on the same target.

Steps now go through a new `EMBEDDED_MPV_SEEK_BY` IPC / `seekEmbeddedMpvBy`
bridge method that every backend forwards as mpv `seek <delta>
relative+exact`: `seekBy` exports in the macOS addon and the Windows/Linux
`wid` addon (Linux over its JSON IPC socket), and a `seek-by` stdin command
in the frame-copy helper. mpv resolves the delta against its own position
and merges queued relative seeks, so presses accumulate as in mpv itself.
The absolute form survives only as a fallback for a preload without the
method or an addon binary without `seekBy`; the timeline scrub still
commits an absolute target.

Validated with a real mpv 0.39 IPC probe: three relative seeks in a burst
advance +15 s, three absolute seeks from one stale base advance +5 s.

* fix(playback): drop speculative position update from relative Embedded MPV seeks

Review follow-up for the relative seek path.

The macOS and Windows/Linux `seekBy` exports advanced `snapshot.positionSeconds`
by the delta after dispatching the mpv command. That is not idempotent the way
the absolute seek's optimistic write is: the observer (mpv event thread, or
the Linux IPC poll) can already have stored the post-seek `time-pos` under the
same mutex, so adding the delta on top counted the step twice, and while paused
nothing corrected it. On Linux it also advertised a position that a failed
socket delivery never reached. Relative steps now leave the snapshot alone;
only the observed `time-pos` updates the position.

The packaged Linux frame-copy smoke now drives `seekEmbeddedMpvBy` through the
built app: a burst of three +2 s steps issued without waiting for snapshots has
to land on 6 s, and a -60 s step has to clamp at 0. The generated Y4M fixture
grows from 2 s to 12 s (about 415 KB) so the burst and the playing section that
follows stay inside the clip. Replayed against a local mpv 0.39 with the same
fixture and media server: burst -> 6.0, -60 -> 0.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs(agents): mirror the Embedded MPV relative-seek contract into AGENTS.md

Review follow-up: the Shared Player Controls section documents the frame-copy
commands and shortcuts, so the relative seekEmbeddedMpvBy invariant lives
there too, next to the CLAUDE.md note.

* fix(playback): reject a Linux relative seek the mpv IPC socket did not accept

Review follow-up: the Linux branch of SeekBy discarded the socket transaction
result and returned normally, so a step that never reached mpv looked like a
seek still awaiting observation. It now throws like a failed mpv_command_async
on the in-process engines; the renderer swallows the rejection and resyncs
from the next snapshot, and the main process logs it.

4grayandClaude Fable 5.1 fa9084fca3 feat(shell): startup window mode, --fullscreen switch and F11 toggle (#1514)
Settings > General gains "Window on startup" (normal / maximized /
fullscreen), Electron only, mirrored into the main-process config by
SETTINGS_UPDATE and applied at the next window creation. `--fullscreen`
forces one fullscreen launch (consumed by the first window). F11 toggles
OS-level fullscreen through WINDOW:TOGGLE_FULLSCREEN — the exit path on
Windows/Linux where the title bar is hidden — and is skipped while the
player owns document.fullscreenElement.

attachWindowStateEvents tracks native and HTML fullscreen as two flags,
since Electron leaves only the HTML state when the window was already
natively fullscreen. macOS ignores the constructor `fullscreen` option on a
hidden window, so ready-to-show repeats the request after show(). Toggles
are decided by an observe-only, event-fed tracker
(native-fullscreen-transitions.ts), never against isFullScreen().

Closes #1455

4grayandClaude Fable 5.1 82295356ed perf(database): commit catalog writes in row-budgeted transactions (#1511)
* perf(database): commit catalog writes in row-budgeted transactions

Refreshing or deleting a large Xtream playlist spent most of its time in
"Removing cached content": every 100 rows were deleted in their own
transaction, so a 300k-row catalog cost ~3,000 commits, each flushing an
FTS5 segment, re-appending dirty index pages to the WAL and, about every
4 MB, running an fsync-ing auto-checkpoint. Measured on a 900k-row copy of
a real database the delete took 13 s where a single set-based statement
takes 3 s, with 2 GB of WAL traffic instead of 140 MB. The re-import wrote
its rows the same way.

Deletes now read content row counts per category from the covering
indexes, pack categories into groups of about 5,000 rows and issue one
set-based DELETE per group, then drop the categories (and, for playlist
removal, the user-data tables) with one scoped statement each. Inserts keep
100-row statements but commit fifty of them at a time. Cancellation still
lands between commits and progress still reports after each one; the
worker additionally throttles progress events to one per 100 ms with
summed increments, so a large operation no longer floods the renderer.

Same subset, same machine: 13.0 s -> 5.6 s for the delete, 16.7 s -> 8.6 s
for the insert; the fsync-bound share is larger on Windows and spinning
disks.

Closes #1292

* test(database): pin the row budget and the worker-side progress flush

Review follow-up: the default 5,000-row budget and the 50-statement insert
commit were only exercised with explicit overrides or sub-budget inputs, and
nothing covered the worker controller flushing a coalesced progress report
before its terminal event. Both are now pinned, and the docs no longer claim
the insert path reports SQLite `changes` or binds 1,600 parameters per
statement (it binds the eleven columns a value supplies).

* test(e2e): keep the stress suites on 100-row commits via a test-only budget knob

The Xtream responsiveness and playlist-switcher suites slow the database
worker down with IPTVNATOR_DB_WORKER_BATCH_DELAY_MS so they can observe an
import mid-flight; the stress catalog is 1,920 rows per type, which at the
production budget of 5,000 rows per commit is a single commit per type and
too few progress events for their assertions. The new companion knob
IPTVNATOR_DB_WORKER_ROWS_PER_TRANSACTION restores 100-row commits for those
runs only; unset or invalid it leaves the default untouched.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(database): scope refresh and cache-clear deletes to the captured category ids

The row-budgeted rewrite deleted a refreshed playlist's categories with a
playlist-wide predicate. The worker serves other requests between commits,
so a newer import of the same playlist could create categories in that
window and lose them to the older refresh, after which its content inserts
fail their foreign keys. Count and delete now use the ids the collection
step read, as the chunked code did; playlist removal keeps its playlist
scope because its final playlist-row delete cascades the same set.
deleteCategoriesWhere runs every filter through requireScopedFilter.

* feat(dashboard): detail-first continue watching cards with quick actions (#1441)

Continue Watching cards now open the detail page on click like movie
cards; resuming the saved episode, marking it watched, and removing the
entry from history move into a per-card ⋮ menu. Series details land on
the earliest season with unwatched episodes (or the latest once all are
watched) instead of always season 1.

* fix(dashboard): address review findings and season auto-select regressions

- A session's own watched toggles no longer re-resolve the selected
  season when the positions map first fills — marking season 1 watched
  used to jump the view to season 2 (CI regression in the web and
  Electron season-watched-toggle E2Es).
- The all-watched season fallback skips loaded-but-empty seasons and
  picks the latest season that has episodes (Greptile P1).
- Mark as Watched uses the strict failure-propagating save boundary
  (Codex P2), and both card mutations surface persistence failures via
  a snackbar with the new WORKSPACE.DASHBOARD.ACTION_FAILED key in all
  19 languages (Greptile P2).
- Season E2Es now assert the intended post-reload behavior: the fresh
  mount lands on the earliest unwatched season while season 1 keeps its
  watched state behind its tab.

4grayandClaude Fable 5 00aa623b83 fix(downloads): reconnect interrupted transfers and resume without validators (#1446)
* fix(downloads): reconnect interrupted transfers and resume without validators

Xtream panels commonly kill each VOD connection after a byte/time burst
(~130-260 MB) and send no ETag/Last-Modified. The validator-only resume
path then deleted the partial and surfaced a raw "aborted" failure, so
every Retry restarted from zero and large files could never finish.

- Resume without a validator through overlap verification: the Range
  request rewinds by 256 KiB and the replayed window must match the
  partial's tail byte-for-byte before anything is appended; a mismatch
  truncates the partial and restarts from scratch (download-overlap.ts).
- Reconnect automatically on recoverable interruptions and clean short
  responses (download-reconnect.ts): progress >=64 KiB past the best
  attempt resets a 3-stall budget; request-phase failures during
  reconnects are converted into retained interruptions so automation can
  never delete a partial.
- Extract pure response-header helpers into
  download-resume-validation.ts to keep download-transfer.ts within the
  file-size guideline.

Verified against a real throttling portal: a 1.6 GB and a 3 GB movie
completed through 15 and 23 connection resets respectively.

* fix(downloads): address review findings on reconnect baseline and small partials

- Judge reconnect progress against the previous attempt instead of a
  high-water mark, so a transfer that legitimately restarted from byte
  zero mid-loop (overlap mismatch, ignored Range) is measured by its
  rebuilt file; at most two such regressions are tolerated per transfer
  to keep the loop structurally bounded (Greptile P1).
- Floor reported progress at the partial's retained size while
  appending, so a response that ends inside the overlap window can never
  move persisted progress backwards (Greptile P1).
- Verify partials smaller than the overlap window in full from byte zero
  and append, instead of rewriting the .part in place — an early-dying
  reconnect can now only grow the file (Codex P2).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(downloads): keep tolerated regressions off the reconnect stall budget

A tolerated restart regression consumed a regression credit AND counted
as a stalled attempt (its negative delta is below the progress
threshold), so a legitimately rebuilt file that grows in sub-64 KiB
steps was failed one reconnect early. Regressions are now charged to
their own bounded budget only; the stall budget stays reserved for
attempts that genuinely fail to grow the file.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(downloads): gate success and validator promotion on complete overlap verification

Round-3 review findings:

- Success is rejected while the overlap verifier has not consumed its
  entire window: a complete 206 that ends inside the window proves the
  remote entity shrank, so the transfer truncates and restarts from
  scratch instead of finalizing the old suffix as a completed file; an
  early-dying stream stays an ordinary retained interruption (Codex P1).
- A verify-append attempt promotes the response's ETag/Last-Modified
  only after the complete overlap matched — an unverified partial is
  never blessed with a validator the next resume would If-Range-append
  onto (Codex P1).
- A tolerated restart regression resets stalls accumulated against the
  discarded representation, so the rebuilt file starts with the full
  stall budget (Greptile P1).

* fix(downloads): carry the known total through total-less reconnect responses

A resumed response without a usable total (chunked, or an unsatisfiable
Content-Range) erased task.totalBytes, so a reset over that response
could no longer classify as a retained interruption and generic cleanup
deleted the verified partial. The previously learned total is now
carried forward for appending attempts; fresh and restarted transfers
still drop it, since it described a discarded file.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(downloads): never fabricate a total for an unverified retained partial

A retained failure with an unknown total persisted
totalBytes = bytesDownloaded, so after stalled reconnects over a
chunked, validator-less response that kept ending inside the overlap
window, Retry's completed-partial shortcut saw the .part size equal the
fabricated total and finalized the unverified partial without a request.
The fallback is now explicit per call site: only a finalization failure
after a complete transfer records its byte count as the total; retained
interruptions keep an unknown total unknown, forcing Retry to re-verify.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(downloads): treat an unsatisfiable resume range as a representation change

A range-capable server whose entity shrank below the rewound overlap
offset answers 416 before any response body exists, which rejected the
request into the generic partial-deleting failure path. The 416 is now
recognized as a representation change: the partial is truncated and the
transfer restarts against the current entity from byte zero.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(downloads): treat an indeterminate Content-Range total as unknown

`Content-Range: bytes 200-299/*` fell through to the Content-Length
fallback, deriving a "total" equal to the end of the selected range —
a resumed response ending there was declared complete and the truncated
partial finalized. An indeterminate total now yields null, letting the
previously known total carry forward and classify the short response as
a retained truncation instead.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(downloads): signal restarts explicitly and keep carried totals informational

Round-8 review findings, both fixed at the design level instead of
another byte-comparison patch:

- Restart epochs (Greptile P1): the transfer layer now reports every
  rewrite-from-zero via task.transferRestarts (overlap mismatch, shrunk
  entity, 416, ignored Range), and the reconnect loop opens a fresh
  progress epoch on that signal — clean stall budget, no baseline. Byte
  inference could not recognize a rebuild landing near the previous
  attempt's count; the explicit signal can. Two restarts are tolerated
  per transfer; an unsignalled regression is an ordinary stall.
- Authoritative vs informational totals (Codex P1): completion and
  truncation decisions now use only the response's own total or its
  advertised indeterminate range end (`bytes X-Y/*` -> Y+1); a carried
  total is informational, is dropped once the bytes on disk falsify it,
  and can flag a short transfer but never authorize finalization. A
  mid-reset 206 retains the partial even with a falsified total — the
  response proved range capability — persisting the total as unknown.

Also raises the resume spec's jest timeout and tightens its polling:
the previous 5 s default flaked on starved CI runners.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(downloads): keep unproven state fully uncommitted across the resume model

Round-9 review findings, closing the remaining commit-before-proof gaps:

- The response's total now stays uncommitted (task and row) until the
  complete overlap matched, exactly like the validator: a persisted
  total equal to the unverified partial's size let the completed-partial
  shortcut finalize unproven bytes after a pause, crash, or retained
  failure (Codex P1).
- Retained-interruption persistence syncs the live task with the row:
  a stale falsified total left in memory made the next reconnect's
  resume-offset guard reject the retained partial into generic cleanup
  (Codex P1).
- An observed 206 is remembered as task.serverAcceptsRanges, so a
  request-phase failure (no response at all) can retain an
  unknown-length partial on that evidence instead of deleting it
  (Codex P2).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(downloads): treat a reset after the final ranged byte as completion

A 206 that delivers every advertised byte but ends in ECONNRESET instead
of a clean close was classified as an interruption with a falsified
total; the reconnect then resumed at EOF, collected a 416, and truncated
the complete file — an endpoint that always resets after its last byte
could never finish. A retainable failure whose on-disk bytes exactly
equal the response's own completion evidence (and the proven total, with
the overlap verified) now completes the transfer. Strict equality keeps
oversized partials on the generic-failure path.

Also splits the transfer error classes and retention classification
into download-transfer-errors.ts to stay under the max-lines rule.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(downloads): never let an indeterminate range end authorize completion

Reaching Y of `Content-Range: bytes X-Y/*` proves the selected range
was delivered, not that the entity ends there — a range-capping server
resetting at its cap would have finalized a truncated movie as
complete. The reset-after-final-byte completion now requires the
response's authoritative total; indeterminate range ends keep flagging
short delivery but such resets stay retained interruptions.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(downloads): retain any nonempty partial and keep indeterminate ranges incomplete

Round-12 findings, resolved by removing the last evidence requirements:

- Retention no longer needs a total, validator, or range proof: since
  overlap verification owns resume correctness, the next attempt can
  safely prove, resume, or restart over ANY retained partial — deleting
  bytes is the only unrecoverable outcome. This closes the whole family
  (refused reconnects, chunked responses, falsified totals, and
  reconstructed retry tasks losing the in-memory range flag) and removes
  task.serverAcceptsRanges entirely (Codex P2).
- A clean EOF at the advertised end of an indeterminate range
  (`bytes X-Y/*`) stays incomplete, matching the reset path: reaching Y
  proves the range was delivered, not that the entity ends there, so a
  range-capping server can no longer finalize a truncated movie; the
  shrunk-entity restart likewise requires an authoritative total
  (Codex P1). Responses with no range and no total keep the clean-EOF
  completion contract of unknown-length HTTP.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(downloads): honor 416-confirmed completion and keep proven validators

Round-13 findings plus a CI limit:

- A 416 whose `Content-Range: bytes */N` equals the partial's size
  confirms the file IS the complete entity (under If-Range a validator
  mismatch yields 200, so the 416 also confirms identity): finalize it
  instead of truncating and redownloading forever (Codex P1).
- A validator proven by a complete overlap match is now promoted on the
  error path too, and retained-failure/pause persistence write
  resume_validator from the task — later attempts resume via If-Range
  instead of replaying the 256 KiB window, which stalled out servers
  whose per-connection cap barely exceeds the window (Codex P1).
- download-resume.spec.ts crossed the 1200-line test limit: the shared
  harness moves to download-resume.test-harness.ts and the
  overlap-family cases into download-overlap-resume.spec.ts; the runtime
  spec gets the same CI-load timeout headroom as the resume specs.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(downloads): settle falsified totals on clean exits and probe EOF after zero-growth replays

Round-14 review findings plus the CI build break:

- download-resume.test-harness.ts was outside the tsconfig test-helpers
  exclude glob and broke every app typecheck/build; renamed to
  download-resume.test-helpers.ts (the excluded pattern).
- A clean indeterminate delivery that outgrows a stale carried total now
  settles that total to unknown on the row AND the live task before
  persisting or throwing — the reconnect's resume-offset guard would
  otherwise reject the retained partial into generic cleanup (Codex P1).
- A verified overlap replay of an indeterminate range that appends
  nothing arms a one-shot EOF probe: the next attempt requests the byte
  after the partial so a compliant 416 (bytes */N) can confirm the file
  is the complete entity, instead of repeating the rewind until the
  stall budget fails a finished download; a probe answered with more
  data is retired unappended and rewound verification resumes
  (Codex P1).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(downloads): retain the partial on an inconclusive EOF-probe 416

A probe at the partial's exact end always collects a 416 when the
entity ends there, and the confirming Content-Range length is optional
— so a length-less 416 is equally consistent with a complete file, and
the unconditional restart redownloaded a likely finished movie every
cycle. The probe's 416 now restarts only when a stated total BELOW the
partial proves the entity shrank; otherwise the partial is retained.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(downloads): treat any EOF-offset 416 as inconclusive, not just the probe

A validator-backed resume at the partial's exact end IS an EOF request:
when its 416 arrived without the optional Content-Range length, the
probingEof gate saw false and restartFromScratch truncated the complete
partial. The inconclusive-416 retention now keys on the request having
started at the partial's end (covering the probe and every If-Range
resume alike); a restart still requires a stated total below the
partial.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(downloads): contradiction-proof carried totals and identity-gated 416 completion

Round-17 review findings:

- A carried total now falls the moment the response's advertised range
  end contradicts it, before any byte lands — waiting for the bytes to
  reach it left a pause/exit window where an N/N row let the
  completed-partial shortcut finalize a truncated file (Codex P1).
- The 416 completion shortcut now requires identity proof: an exact-EOF
  request backed by If-Range, or the EOF probe that follows a fully
  verified overlap replay. A bare length match on a rewound request
  proves nothing about whose bytes are on disk; a contradictory 416
  (stated total says the rewound range was satisfiable) retains instead
  of restarting (Codex P2).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(downloads): extract 416 classification to stay under max-lines

The previous commit pushed download-transfer.ts to 404 effective lines;
the 416 decision moves into classifyRangeNotSatisfiable() in
download-transfer-errors.ts with identical semantics, and the unused
re-export-only imports are dropped.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(downloads): promote the proven total on the error path and fix the 416 contract doc

- The error-path promotion after a complete overlap match now updates
  task.totalBytes alongside the validator: a pause landing while the
  partial sits at a stale carried total otherwise persisted an N/N row
  that Resume's completed-partial shortcut would finalize (Codex P1).
- The download-manager contract doc's rewound-416 paragraph now matches
  classifyRangeNotSatisfiable(): completion requires identity proof at
  exact EOF, restart requires a proven shrink, everything ambiguous
  retains (Codex P1 on the doc).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(downloads): correct both 416 classification boundaries

Round-19 review findings, one in each direction:

- A rewound 416 WITHOUT a stated length now retains: unsatisfiability
  alone never proves the entity shrank relative to the retained bytes,
  and the canonical contract reserves restart for stated proof
  (Codex P1).
- A stated total EQUAL to a rewound request's first byte now restarts:
  the entity ending exactly at the rewound offset makes the 416 valid
  and proves the partial extends past the entity — equality was being
  misread as a contradiction, stranding the download in retain forever
  (Codex P1).

classifyRangeNotSatisfiable() gains an exhaustive pure table spec
covering every branch.

* fix(downloads): restart on reset-ended responses that completed a shorter entity in-window

The clean-EOF path already restarted when a response delivered its
complete authoritative total inside the verification window, but a
reset arriving right after that final byte took the retention path and
stranded the oversized partial in a stall loop. The catch path now
mirrors the shrink detection: authoritative total reached inside an
unproven overlap restarts from scratch.

* fix(downloads): request identity encoding for byte-exact transfers

Axios's Node adapter transparently decodes gzip/brotli responses, which
would put decoded bytes on disk while Content-Length, Content-Range,
and every Range offset speak the encoded representation — desyncing
resume offsets and overlap verification on origins that compress.
Downloads now always send Accept-Encoding: identity.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(downloads): drop carried totals an indeterminate range can exactly reach

`bytes 200-249/*` can deliver the partial exactly TO a carried total of
250; the <= guard kept that total, and a pause or exit anywhere in that
window persisted a 250/250 row the completed-partial shortcut would
finalize without EOF proof. The guard is now strict: a carried total
survives only when the advertised indeterminate range cannot reach it,
which also closes the mid-stream pause window.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(downloads): arm the EOF probe after a reset-ended verified zero-growth replay

A verified overlap replay that reset right at the partial's end (zero
growth, indeterminate range, no validator) retained without arming the
EOF probe, so every retry replayed the same tail until the stall budget
expired — the clean-EOF path's probe arming now has its reset-path
mirror.

Also splits to stay under max-lines: the classifyRangeNotSatisfiable
table spec moves to download-transfer-errors.spec.ts and the DB persist
helpers to download-transfer-persistence.ts.

4grayandClaude Fable 5 0a2fe263db feat(portals): mark a whole series as watched in one click (#1451)
* feat(portals): mark a whole series as watched in one click

Adds a series-level watched toggle to the season header's new overflow
menu on both Xtream and Stalker series detail pages (issue #1442 v2,
building on the season-level toggle from #1447).

- Shared: buildSeriesWatchToggleRequest flattens every loaded season
  with the season builder's mark/unmark semantics; the direction is
  always the one the label advertised, never re-inferred at persist
  time. Watch-toggle state math for both scopes moves into the new
  component-provided SeasonWatchPresenter (the container component sat
  at the max-lines cap).
- Xtream: the series request reuses SerialDetailsSeasonWatchService
  through a scope-parameterized handle(), the same stillCurrent
  ownership guard, and the XtreamStore.loadAllPositions badge refresh.
- Stalker: the season handler's core is extracted into
  runWatchToggleBatch (feedback keys per scope). Lazy Ministra VOD
  hydrates unloaded seasons sequentially first (zero writes on a failed
  fetch, silent abort on navigation), re-runs the position reconcile
  synchronously so newly hydrated episodes' legacy rows are cleaned,
  then rebuilds the request keeping the clicked direction; an
  all-watched outcome reports an honest count-0 snackbar.
- Container: new hasUnloadedSeasons input blocks the fully-watched
  verdict and the count label while lazy seasons are unloaded, and the
  empty mark request contract lets the host hydrate-then-rebuild.

Six new XTREAM i18n keys, synced to all 18 locales via the i18n-fill
workflow. No new IPC: the existing playback-position batch channels are
season-agnostic.

* fix(portals): treat an empty Stalker season answer as loaded, not pending

A lazy season the portal ANSWERS for with zero episodes was still
counted as unloaded (episodes.length === 0 heuristic): the series label
stayed countless forever and every series toggle re-fetched the empty
season, while a glitch-empty answer could silently skip a season and
still report success as if nothing remained.

VodSeriesSeasonVm gains an episodesLoaded flag set by every successful
episode fetch — including an empty one — and the series toggle's
pending predicate, hydration re-check, and hasUnloadedVodSeasons now
key on it. A loaded-and-empty season unblocks the count label and the
fully-watched verdict instead of re-fetching; a fresh detail mount
still re-fetches, so a one-off glitch self-corrects next session.

Addresses the Greptile P1 on PR #1451.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): harden lazy season hydration against malformed and racing loads

Two review findings on the series watched toggle:

- fetchVodSeriesEpisodes now trusts an empty answer only when the
  envelope actually carried a well-formed array; a malformed envelope or
  an answer whose rows contain no recognizable episode rejects, so the
  load fails instead of the season being recorded loaded-and-empty and
  silently skipped by the series batch.
- loadEpisodesForSeason is single-flight per season: a tab click, the
  spillover prefetch, the quick-start recursion, and the series-toggle
  hydration join one in-flight request instead of duplicating portal
  traffic — previously a second request's failure could abort a series
  toggle whose original request succeeded.

4grayandClaude Fable 5 7fc9380bff feat(portals): mark a full season as watched in one click (#1447)
* feat(portals): mark a full season as watched in one click

Series detail pages on both Xtream and Stalker portals get a season-level
watched toggle next to "Download season": marking writes full-progress
rows for the unwatched episodes only (real durations survive), a fully
watched season flips the action to unwatch-all.

Persistence goes through new batch IPC channels
(DB_SAVE/CLEAR_PLAYBACK_POSITIONS_BATCH, one SQLite transaction with
onConflictDoUpdate().run(); the PWA data source rewrites its
localStorage blob once). Stalker deliberately bypasses the batch IPC
and loops the existing position-mutation queue so legacy-row
reconciliation still runs and the queue coalesces to a single reload;
partial failures surface a dedicated snackbar.

Also removes the dead toggleEpisodeWatched store method, splits
season-container/serial-details-playback under the max-lines cap
(season-watch-toggle.util.ts, SerialDetailsSeasonWatchService), and
classifies *.spec-data.ts fixtures under the test max-lines ceiling
(baseline shrinks by main.preload.spec-data.ts).

Closes #1442

* fix(portals): guard stale season batches and split partial-unwatch feedback

Review follow-up (Codex on #1447):
- A season batch completing after the user navigated to another series
  or playlist no longer writes the old series' rows into the freshly
  reset position state (episode ids can collide across playlists); the
  Xtream host captures the playlist/series identity before awaiting and
  skips the rendered-state mutation when it changed. The DB write is
  unaffected — it carries its own playlistId.
- A partially failed "mark season as unwatched" on Stalker now reports
  a dedicated SEASON_MARKED_UNWATCHED_PARTIAL message instead of the
  watch-direction "marked" text; translated into all 18 locales.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): exclude the playing episode from season marking and count partial saves

Second review round (Codex on #1447):
- The episode currently playing (inline or in an external session, or
  with a launch in flight) is excluded from a season's mark-watched
  batch: the player persists its live position every ~15 s and would
  immediately overwrite the just-written full-progress row. The button
  count reflects the exclusion and the action disables when nothing is
  markable. Unmarking still clears such an episode — the recreated
  in-progress row reflects live playback truthfully.
- A Stalker StalkerSeriesPositionPartialSaveError (scoped watched row
  saved and published, only legacy cleanup failed) now counts as a
  watched success instead of feeding false total-failure feedback.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): gate stale season-batch snackbars on the originating page

Third review round (Codex on #1447): a batch resolving after the user
navigated away no longer shows its contextless success/error snackbar
on the newly opened detail page — the same ownership check that guards
the state mutation now guards the feedback too.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): sync catalog progress badges after toggles and gate Stalker feedback

Fourth review round (Codex on #1447):
- Any Xtream watched toggle (single episode or season batch) now
  refreshes XtreamStore.loadAllPositions after persisting — the catalog
  reads series-progress badges from the store, which otherwise loads
  positions once per playlist, so returning from the detail kept stale
  badges. Skipped when the playlist changed mid-flight (the store then
  belongs to the other playlist; its own init reloads positions).
- Stalker's season snackbars are gated on the captured playlist/series
  identity, matching the Xtream ownership guard — a batch draining after
  navigation no longer reports on the newly opened page.
- Stalker season-toggle specs moved to stalker-series-view.season-watch
  .spec.ts with their own harness; both prior spec files sat at the
  1200-line test ceiling.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: describe the season watched toggle in CLAUDE.md

Fifth review round (Codex on #1447): the canonical Seasons entry in the
VOD/Series detail section now covers the bulk toggle, its playing-episode
exclusion, both persistence paths, catalog badge sync, and the
stale-completion contract.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): let only the latest positions load patch the Xtream store

Sixth review round (Codex on #1447): loadAllPositions is now
latest-load-wins — a fetch superseded while in flight (playlist switch
before getAllPlaybackPositions resolves) no longer patches the singleton
store with the previous playlist's position maps, which could leave the
new catalog showing the old playlist's progress badges.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: reflect the spec-data max-lines classification in CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md

Seventh review round (Codex on #1447): both canonical max-lines
descriptions now list **/*.spec-data.ts among the test-ceiling globs so
future agents neither treat these fixtures as production files nor
remove the exemption unknowingly.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): parse "N min" durations when marking episodes watched

Eighth review round (Codex on #1447): Stalker VOD episodes report
durations like "45 min", which parseDuration could not read — bulk (and
single) mark-watched then persisted 1/1-second rows. The minute format
now parses to seconds, matching what the removed legacy store method
already handled.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): parse compound hour durations and cover the toggle end-to-end

Ninth review round (Codex on #1447):
- parseDuration now reads the compound "1h 30min" form the Xtream
  fixtures emit (hour group optional, so "45 min" keeps working) —
  bulk-marked episodes no longer persist a minutes-only duration.
- New Playwright coverage exercises the season toggle through the real
  UI on both portals: Xtream (category → series detail → mark →
  reload-persistence → unmark) and Stalker (embedded-series flow,
  mark → unmark with the item's actual episode count).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): refresh Stalker catalog progress badges after watched toggles

Tenth review round (Codex on #1447): the Stalker mirror of the Xtream
catalog sync — StalkerCatalogFacadeService loads its position maps once
per playlist and the runtime bridge only pushes external-player updates,
so renderer-initiated toggles left grid badges stale. The series view
now calls the facade's new ownership-checked refreshPositions after the
season batch (including partial successes) and after single toggles;
the reload is latest-load-wins like the Xtream store fix. Optional
injection keeps collection-detail mounts outside the catalog working.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test(portals): cover the season toggle batch IPC end-to-end in Electron

Eleventh review round (Codex on #1447): the new Electron E2E marks a
season through the real UI, asserts the eight SQLite rows written by
DB_SAVE_PLAYBACK_POSITIONS_BATCH directly through the preload bridge,
proves persistence with a full app relaunch (renderer and main process
die, so state can only come from the database file), and clears again
through DB_CLEAR_PLAYBACK_POSITIONS_BATCH back to zero rows.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(dashboard): keep watched rows out of the series resume target

Twelfth review round (Codex on #1447): a watched position row — a
natural finish or a manual/bulk "mark watched" marker — is a completion
record, not resumable progress. Continue Watching no longer auto-plays
such an episode at its end; the handoff stays detail-only and the series
page's quick-start picks the first unwatched episode instead. Card
progress bars and SxxEyy badges keep their current source.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): fail closed on refresh reads and gate batch APIs by capability

Thirteenth review round (Codex on #1447):
- Position-cache refreshes now use a failure-propagating read
  (getAllPlaybackPositionsOrThrow through the Electron data source): a
  transient IPC failure rejects instead of masquerading as an empty
  list, so a populated store/facade cache stays stale-but-populated
  rather than being wiped. All load/refresh call sites handle the new
  rejection (init loads may retry on the next activation; post-toggle
  refreshes log and keep the snackbar flow).
- The season-batch bridge methods joined playbackPositionStorageMethods,
  so a bridge lacking them degrades to the in-memory path wholesale
  instead of throwing mid-action.

4gray 00000de798 feat(downloads): align manager cards, queue rows, and headings with the rail design language (#1448) 2026-08-15 13:59:28 +02:00
4grayandClaude Fable 5 4bcd4bd390 feat(dashboard): add TMDB "Because you watched" recommendations rail (#1419)
* feat(dashboard): add TMDB "Because you watched" recommendations rail

TMDB has no account-free "for you" endpoint, so the rail seeds per-title
recommendations from up to 3 recently watched movies/series. Seeds resolve
through the enrichment facade via a shared lookup-attempt builder (extracted
from the hero service), and recommendations already ride in every cached
details payload, so watched seeds cost zero network. Per-seed lists are
interleaved round-robin, deduplicated by id and normalized title, stripped
of watched/favorited titles, and matched against imported libraries with one
batched DB_MATCH_TITLES request; only year-compatible matches render and
fewer than 5 cards hides the rail. Loads are keyed by the seed set, and a
load where no seed resolved retries instead of latching.

The header names the seed ("Because you watched X") when exactly one seed
contributed, else falls back to the generic "Recommended for you". New
dashboardRails.tmdbRecommendations toggle (default on) in Settings ->
Dashboard; 4 new i18n keys translated across all 19 locales.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(dashboard): harden recommendations rail reload semantics

Address Codex review findings: the load latch is now keyed by the seed
set PLUS the watched/favorited exclusion set, so favoriting a recommended
title re-filters the rail instead of being ignored by the seed-only memo;
an emptied watch history clears the root-provided service's items and
seed titles instead of leaving a stale rail; and a load requested while
one is in flight is queued and re-run afterwards, so a mid-flight history
change cannot commit results for an obsolete seed set. The dashboard
effect now also tracks favorites. Three regression tests added.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(dashboard): catalog-aware invalidation, no empty latch, original-title aliases

Address Codex round-2 findings: the load key now includes the
imported-playlist id set, so importing or deleting a playlist re-runs the
catalog matching instead of leaving dead links or hiding fresh matches; a
below-threshold (or transiently failed) match result hides the rail
WITHOUT latching, mirroring the trending rail's retry-on-empty semantics,
since matchTitles maps worker failures to an empty list; and matching plus
watched/favorited exclusion now work through both the localized TMDB title
and the original-title alias, so a catalog named in the original language
still matches while cards keep displaying the localized form. Regression
tests added for all three.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(dashboard): reset latch on hide, alias-year fallback, language-keyed loads

Address Codex round-3 findings: hiding the rail below the match threshold
now also resets the saved load key, so returning to a previously
successful input set (un-favoriting, restoring a playlist) reloads instead
of dying on the equality guard; alias matching picks the first alias whose
match is also year-compatible, so a same-named different-year row hit by
the localized title no longer vetoes the correct original-title match; and
the load key now includes the effective TMDB language (exposed on the
enrichment facade), so switching the app language re-localizes the cards
instead of keeping the previous language all session. Regression tests
added for all three.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(dashboard): two-tier watched-title exclusion, drop ES2019 flatMap

Address the Codex round-4 finding: a provider stores whatever the panel
named the file, so a watched "Inception 2010" never matched TMDB's
canonical "Inception" by exact key. Exclusion now runs on two tiers —
exact normalized title plus a year-gated base tier — so the year-suffixed
shape is caught while a stored "Blade Runner 2049" still cannot swallow
the 1982 film. An unknown year on either side counts as agreeing, since
re-recommending something already watched is the worse failure.

Also replaces the alias query builder's flatMap with a loop: the web app
compiles this lib against lib: es2018, where Array.prototype.flatMap does
not exist, which broke the web build and every job downstream of it.
Both exclusion tiers are pinned by mutation-verified regression tests.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(dashboard): index recommendation exclusions the way TMDB looks them up

Address Codex round-5 findings. The watched/favorited exclusion index is
now built through the same lookup-attempt builder the seeds and the hero
use, so an activity row is indexed under the media type the detail view
enriched with rather than its routing verdict — a Stalker embedded-VOD
series routes as 'movie' but is a show to TMDB, so its recommendation
looked up series: and sailed past a movie:-only entry — and under its
stored original-language title (info.o_name), which a translated
recommendation shares no key with. Only the builder's PRIMARY attempt is
indexed: the second is a fallback guess, and indexing it would let a
watched film exclude the same-named show.

Adds Electron E2E for the new setting: the toggle now appears in the
disabled-when-dashboard-off assertion (with the trending toggle, which
was also missing), plus a restart-persistence test. Rail rendering stays
unit-covered — it needs the TMDB opt-in, live TMDB data and catalog
matches, which would make an E2E network-dependent and flaky.

All three new unit tests are mutation-verified, including one that was
passing vacuously before this round.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(dashboard): keep every catalog row until the year gate has chosen

Address the Codex round-6 finding: buildTitleMatchIndex collapses to one
row per key before the candidate's year is known, so a catalog holding
both "Dune 1984" and "Dune 2021" keeps whichever the worker returned
first and a 2021 recommendation then fails the year check with the right
row already discarded. The rail now groups the rows per key itself and
lets the year gate pick, still preferring an exact-title match over a
year-stripped one so the shared helper's precedence is preserved.
Mutation-verified regression test.

The trending rail shares the same collapse-then-check shape and is
unaffected by this PR; flagged separately as a follow-up.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(dashboard): survive a failed refresh, document the new rail

Address Codex round-7 findings.

A refresh that cannot reach TMDB no longer leaves the rail untouched, but
it does not blank it either: a failed request is not a verdict that there
is nothing to recommend, and removing still-valid cards is the worse
answer for an offline user. What the failure cannot excuse is a card the
user has since watched or favorited, so the retained cards are re-filtered
against the fresh exclusion index and the rail hides if too few survive.
The key stays unlatched, so the next visit still retries.

Also documents the rail in the two canonical dashboard docs I missed:
the surface diagram and render rules in docs/architecture/workspace-dashboard.md
and the rail list in the feature README. Both had also never mentioned the
sibling trending rail, so that gap is closed in the same pass.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(dashboard): year-aware exclusions, remake-safe dedupe, key reset

Address Codex round-8 findings.

The exclusion index now records each row's release year (Stalker's
info.releasedate, else a year read off the title) with every key, and both
tiers gate on it, so a watched 1954 "Godzilla" no longer excludes the 2014
one. A row that states no year records null and keeps excluding
unconditionally, so the conservative behaviour survives where nothing is
known.

Candidate dedupe is by TMDB id only; title collisions are resolved after
matching, by the catalog row a candidate resolved to. Same-titled remakes
("Dune" 1984 and 2021) are different films and must both reach the
matcher — collapsing them beforehand let whichever arrived first fail the
year gate on behalf of the one the library actually holds — while two
candidates landing on one row would render as duplicate cards.

The offline re-filter now clears the saved load key, so restoring those
exact inputs (un-favoriting the title) rebuilds the rail instead of
hitting the equality guard.

Splits the pure helpers and data shapes into dashboard-recommendations.util.ts:
the service had crossed the 400-line production limit. All three fixes are
mutation-verified, including one test that only became real after the
mutation showed it passing on the wrong ordering.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(dashboard): do not latch a partially resolved seed set

Address the Codex round-9 finding: when several seeds load and only some
resolve, latching marked the whole set complete, so a seed that failed
transiently lost its recommendations for the rest of the session. The load
now latches only once every seed has answered.

A seed with no TMDB match never resolves either, so that user's rail
re-runs on each dashboard visit. That is bounded work — the enrichment
misses are cached and the catalog match is one batched worker call — and
it matches the rail's existing policy of not latching on uncertainty.
Mutation-verified regression test, plus one pinning that a fully resolved
set still latches.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(dashboard): trust only stated years on the exact exclusion tier

Address Codex round-10 findings.

The first is a regression I introduced last round: recording a
title-inferred year with the exact exclusion key meant a watched
"Blade Runner 2049" carried year 2049, disagreed with TMDB's actual 2017,
and stopped excluding the very film the user had just watched. The exact
tier now gates only on a year the row STATES in a metadata field
(Stalker's info.releasedate) — the rule releaseTagYear already documents:
on a whole-title match a trailing number belongs to the name and nothing
can settle it. The base tier keeps its stripped trailing year, which is a
suffix by construction, so the Godzilla 1954/2014 case still holds.

The offline re-filter also drops cards whose playlist has been deleted.
That path is the only one that can reach retained cards without the
catalog key rebuilding the rail, so those cards would otherwise navigate
to a dead route.

Both fixes are mutation-verified.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(dashboard): resolved media type replaces the routing one; prefer year-tagged rows

Address Codex round-11 findings.

The exclusion index no longer indexes an activity row under BOTH its
routing type and its resolved media type. A Stalker embedded-VOD series
routes as 'movie' on positive series evidence, so keeping that key made a
watched show exclude an unrelated film of the same name — and, with no
release date to gate on, unconditionally. The resolved type now replaces
the routing one; a row the builder cannot classify keeps its routing type,
which is then the only thing known.

Catalog matching now prefers a row whose stripped year IS the candidate's
over an untagged one: an untagged "Dune" row could be either cut, so
linking a 2021 recommendation to it while "Dune 2021" also exists throws
away the better evidence. Untagged rows stay next in precedence, which is
also the only tier reachable when the candidate's year is unknown.

Both mutation-verified.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(dashboard): no TV retry for catalog-classified Xtream rows

Address the Codex round-12 finding: the movie -> tv lookup retry exists
because a Stalker embedded-VOD series is stored as a 'movie' activity row,
but an Xtream row's type comes from a catalog that files movies and series
apart, so there 'movie' is evidence rather than a default. The retry let a
same-titled show answer for a film — the mirror of the existing rule that
a 'tv' verdict never retries as 'movie'.

The lookup item type had dropped the `source` field that distinguishes
them; restoring it is enough to gate the retry. This also tightens the
hero rail, which shares the builder. Mutation-verified.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(dashboard): confirmed movies skip the TV retry; key by the whole attempt chain

Address Codex round-13 findings, both consequences of last round's change.

A stored Stalker `info.tmdb_id` is never a provider claim — the contract
says its only source is a match this app already gated, under that very
media type — so such a row's 'movie' verdict is no longer the ambiguous
default the TV retry exists for. Retrying it let a same-titled show answer
for a film whenever the movie lookup transiently returned null. The retry
now runs only for rows nothing has confirmed.

The lookup key is now the whole attempt sequence rather than the primary
attempt alone: two rows can share title, year and id yet differ in whether
a TV fallback follows, and callers cache by this key — the hero's
root-level memo would otherwise serve a Stalker row's TV answer as an
Xtream movie's metadata, and selectSeeds() would collapse two seeds that
do not perform the same lookup.

Both mutation-verified. One existing hero test asserted the retry for a
fixture that carries a stored id; it now pins the confirmed-identity
behaviour instead, with a separate test for the id-less retry it used to
cover.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(dashboard): rank catalog matches by year evidence across aliases

Address the Codex round-14 finding: match selection returned as soon as
any alias had a compatible row, so an untagged row under the localized
title beat a row the original-title alias found carrying the candidate's
own year — the wrong remake when both cuts exist. Compatible rows from
every alias now form one pool ranked by evidence, with alias order kept
only as the tiebreaker inside a tier. The nested loop collapses into a
single pass in the process. Mutation-verified.

* fix(m3u): forward playlist-level custom headers to external players

The custom User-Agent/Referer/Origin stored on an M3U playlist only
reached the built-in web players (via the Electron webRequest override).
MPV/VLC and the embedded MPV player make their own HTTP requests and
received only the per-channel #EXTVLCOPT values, so a playlist-wide
custom User-Agent was silently dropped for UA-locked providers (#1221).

External launch payloads now resolve each header independently: the
channel-level #EXTVLCOPT value wins, the playlist-level value is the
fallback, blank values count as absent — matching the semantics the
unified favorites/recent stream resolver already had. Covers the
auto-launch and catch-up effects in m3u-state, the manual MPV/VLC

* fix(playback): send Origin as a real VLC header and cover header IPC in E2E

Review follow-ups: VLC only used the Origin value as an :http-referrer
fallback while MPV already sent it via --http-header-fields; both VLC
paths (fresh spawn and RC enqueue) now emit the same
buildHttpHeaderFields list, so a real `Origin: ...` header reaches the
provider, deduplicated against an explicit headers-map Origin. The
legacy origin-as-Referer fallback stays.

The dash-clearkey Electron E2E now asserts the new IPC contract (blank
channel-level headers arrive as undefined, not empty strings) and gains
a scenario that sets a playlist-level User-Agent through the source
editor and verifies the captured MPV fallback launch carries it across
the renderer/main IPC boundary.

4grayandClaude Fable 5 cf74f7e4a0 feat(stalker): append portal pages on scroll and drop pagination everywhere (2/2) (#1395)
* feat(stalker): append portal pages on scroll and drop pagination everywhere

Second and final PR of the pagination removal (plan:
.plans/2026-08-09-infinite-scroll-catalog.md). Stalker VOD/series grids now
feed the shared infinite-scroll contract from server-paged appends: portal
pages (server-side size, typically 14) accumulate into one deduplicated
paginatedContent list, page 1 replaces it for the skeleton, hasMoreContent
derives from accumulated length vs total_items (portals that ignore
requested page sizes still terminate), and a failed page > 1 keeps the
accumulated pages on screen with a tail retry (retryContentPage reloads the
same page; loadMore refuses to skip past an unresolved append error). The
facade splits the resource's loading flag by page — skeleton for page one,
tail spinner for appends — and keeps per-identity scroll offsets for
Stalker's INLINE detail round trips; the shared view re-arms its one-shot
restore when a detail opens in the same component instance.

The transitional supportsInfiniteScroll flag and every paged member are
deleted from PortalCatalogFacade; the shared catalog view loses the
mat-paginator, the ?page= round-trip, and the paged query-param branch. The
ITV all-channels grid becomes a client-side render window over the cached
full list (the app's last paginator), and Stalker search pages past its
first capped request via the layout's nearEnd, with a progress guard for
portals that report no usable total.

Validation: 1600 unit tests across 7 projects green (new: vod/series
append + failed-append retry, facade loading split/loadMore guards/scroll
snapshots, ITV window model, compat selector update); catalog-sorting e2e
5/5 (Stalker spec rewritten to scroll model with p>=2 network asserts and
an inline-detail spot-restore round trip; one unrelated nav-timeout flake
reproduced only under parallel machine load), search e2e 16/16, web
stalker e2e green (all-channels grid asserts the windowed count instead of
a paginator range label); lint clean; release note added and validated;
stalker-portal.md, CLAUDE.md, and ui-guidelines updated.

* fix(stalker): reset paging on content-type switch and never skip failed search pages

Round-1 review findings on #1395:

1. Codex P1: switching /vod -> /series with the same category id ('*' on
   both section roots) left page > 1 in place — setSelectedContentType did
   not touch paging and setSelectedCategory('*') no-ops on an unchanged id
   — so the new type's FIRST response was treated as an append onto the
   old type's accumulated list. The type setter now resets the page (and
   no-ops entirely when the type repeats, keeping detail round-trip
   restores intact).

2. Greptile P1 + Codex P2: a failed search append left searchHasMore true,
   so the next near-end advanced to page N+1 and permanently omitted the
   failed page. The search now tracks searchAppendError: a failed append
   keeps the accumulated pages and the next near-end RETRIES the same
   page; a failed fresh search (page 1) clears the previous query's cards
   instead of rendering them under the new term (Codex P2).

The page-merge/failure logic moved into applySearchPageSuccess/Failure
methods: Angular resource() never re-fires on params changes in this
repo's template-less jest harnesses (store-hosted resources do), so the
extracted methods carry the unit coverage — accumulation + dedupe,
no-total progress guard, retry-not-skip, fresh-failure clear — plus a
selection spec for the type-switch page reset. portal-stalker-feature
260, portal-stalker-data-access 464, lint clean; catalog-sorting e2e 5/5
and web stalker e2e green. search.e2e shows machine-load nav-timeout
flakes on unrelated M3U/live specs (a runaway third-party process pegs
the host CPU); CI provides the clean independent run.

* fix(stalker): include the portal in the search paging identity

Round-2 Codex P1 on #1395: Angular reuses the search route across
/stalker/A/search -> /stalker/B/search, and the paging identity covered
only term + filter — the page number and accumulator survived the portal
change, so the next near-end fetched portal B at the OLD page number and
appended it onto portal A's results while skipping B's first page.

The active playlist id now joins the page-reset identity, the resource
params, the stale-response guard, and the layout's near-end reset key.
Regression spec: switching the active playlist on a reused route resets
the page to 1 and rotates the scroll reset key.

* fix(stalker): end paging on no-progress appends even with a reported total

Round-3 Codex P2s on #1395 (same defect in both accumulators): the
no-progress guard only applied when the portal reported no usable
total_items. After a mid-list portal mutation, deduplication can leave
the unique list permanently shorter than the claimed total — hasMore then
stayed true forever and every scroll crossing kept requesting pages past
the end of the data.

An append that adds no unique items now ends paging in both places: the
catalog clamps totalCount to the accumulated length (hasMoreContent turns
false and the count badge reflects what is actually reachable), and the
search requires append progress in the total-backed branch exactly like
the no-total branch. Regression specs cover a duplicate page under a
larger claimed total for both. portal-stalker-data-access 465,
portal-stalker-feature 262, lint clean.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): explicit search retry control and per-portal scroll identities

Round-4 findings on #1395:

1. Greptile P1: with the results pane parked at the bottom, repeated
   append failures exhausted the scroll auto-fill budget while the
   near-end latch stayed armed — the retry path was reachable only
   through another nearEnd event that could never fire. The search page
   now renders an explicit retry control under the results whenever an
   append has failed (same wording as the catalog grid tail), wired to
   the existing retry-same-page path, so recovery never depends on
   producing another scroll event.

2. Codex P2: the facade's saved-scroll map survives a same-config portal
   switch (the vod/series route provider is reused across /stalker/A ->
   /stalker/B), and its identity lacked the playlist — portal A's offset
   could restore onto portal B's unrelated catalog. The playlist id now
   leads the scroll identity; regression spec covers the cross-portal
   non-restore and the return restore.

* fix(stalker): restore the search results scroll after an inline detail

Round-5 Codex P2 on #1395: the search layout destroys the results
container while an inline detail is shown (showDetails) and recreates it
at offset zero — with the new multi-page accumulation a user could load
several pages, open a result far down the list, and land back at the top
on close even though the accumulated results survived.

SearchLayoutComponent now exposes a scroll handoff for hosts whose
details replace the results (getResultsScrollTop /
restoreResultsScrollTop on the container it owns), and the Stalker search
captures the offset when a detail opens and restores it one-shot after
the container is recreated on close. Regression specs cover the layout
handoff methods and the capture/restore round trip.
portal-shared-ui 90, portal-stalker-feature 264, lint clean.

* fix(stalker): clear accumulated search results for unsearchable portals

Round-6 Codex P2 on #1395: the loader's early returns (deleted or
malformed playlist on a reused route) predate the accumulator and
returned [] without touching it — the previous portal's cards kept
rendering under the new context once loading settled.

Every no-portal early return now goes through resetSearchAccumulator(),
which empties the accumulated list and both paging flags; the short-term
path uses it too (and now also clears a stale append error). Regression
spec covers the full reset. portal-stalker-feature 265, lint clean.

4grayandClaude Fable 5 8442747c37 feat(xtream): replace catalog pagination with infinite scroll (1/2) (#1392)
* feat(xtream): replace catalog pagination with infinite scroll

Xtream movie/series/live catalogs now load continuously while scrolling
instead of paging. The selection store keeps a growing visibleCount render
window over the in-memory catalog (initial 50, +50 per load) plus a saved
scroll state, so opening a title and going back restores the exact spot. A
shared InfiniteScrollDirective (portal/shared/ui) fires loadMore near the
bottom (edge-triggered, mirroring search-layout) and auto-fills viewports
taller than the initial window by measuring container overflow — capped at
10 self-initiated loads per list identity, with a ResizeObserver re-check.

The shared CategoryContentViewComponent branches on the transitional
PortalCatalogFacade.supportsInfiniteScroll flag: Xtream scrolls, Stalker
keeps its server-driven paginator and ?page= round-trip untouched until its
append lands (PR 2), after which the paged facade members and the flag are
deleted. grid-list loses its dead built-in paginator and gains tail states
(append spinner, retry-on-error) plus content-visibility on cards. The
in-portal search results reuse the search layout's nearEnd hook to window
their full result set instead of rendering it unbounded.

Validation: portal-xtream-data-access (234), portal-xtream-feature (357),
portal-catalog-feature (22), portal-shared-ui (77, incl. new directive
spec), portal-stalker-* (253) unit tests green; catalog-sorting e2e 5/5

* fix(xtream): auto-fill search results and refresh the near-end latch

Review findings from #1392: the in-portal search window could stall at its
first 60-item chunk when the rendered cards did not overflow the container
— nearEnd only fired on real scroll events (Greptile P1), the search
layout's edge latch survived a result-set replacement (Codex), and the
shared directive's latch went stale after appended content moved the
bottom out of the threshold (Codex).

The search layout now drives its results container through the shared
InfiniteScrollDirective instead of a bespoke scroll handler: the measured
auto-fill reveals further chunks on tall viewports without any scroll, the
reset key (search term) and item-count changes refresh the latch, and new
nearEndHasMore/nearEndAppending inputs let consumers gate emissions.
Xtream search wires them for both modes — this also fixes the same latent
tall-viewport stall in the global search's 100-item pages — and the
Stalker search page (single capped request until PR 2) sets hasMore=false.
The directive's fill check now refreshes the latch from the measured
state, so an End-key jump straight to the new bottom is a genuine crossing
again.

New coverage: directive stale-latch regression, search-layout auto-fill +
hasMore gating, in-portal window reveal/reset in search-results. Reruns:
portal-shared-ui 80, portal-xtream-feature 357, portal-stalker-feature
green; search e2e 16/16 (fresh Playwright report verified); lint clean.

* fix(xtream): re-measure search auto-fill on the rendered window, not the total

Round-2 review finding on #1392 (Greptile P1 + Codex P2, same defect): the
search layout bound the constant result-set total to the infinite-scroll
directive's item count, so once the in-portal window grew 60 -> 120 no
tracked input changed, no further overflow check was scheduled, and
results beyond 120 stayed unreachable on tall viewports.

The layout now takes an explicit nearEndRenderedCount (falling back to
resultsCount for consumers that render everything they report) and feeds
THAT to the directive. Xtream search passes the windowed slice length for
in-portal mode and the loaded-set length for global mode. Regression
specs: layout re-measures when the rendered window grows while the total
stays constant; the component exposes the rendered count following the
window. portal-shared-ui 81, portal-xtream-feature 357, lint clean.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(xtream): include filter state in the search reset identity

Round-3 Codex P2 on #1392: the near-end latch and auto-fill budget were
keyed on the search term alone, so a filter-only transition (type filters
or the hidden-categories toggle) replaced the result set without resetting
them — a jump straight back into the threshold could be swallowed. The
search layout now accepts an explicit nearEndResetKey (defaulting to the
term); Xtream search supplies term + type filters + excludeHidden.
Regression specs: layout latch resets on an identity change without a new
term; the component identity changes on filter-only and hidden-toggle
transitions. portal-shared-ui 82, portal-xtream-feature 358, lint clean.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(xtream): refuse global-search appends while an edited query debounces

Round-4 Codex P2 on #1392: after the reset-identity change, the layout's
auto-fill can request more results inside the 300ms search debounce. The
append then ran with the freshly edited term but the old result count as
offset, interleaving a page of the new query into the old query's visible
results until the offset-zero search landed.

An append now only continues the LAST EXECUTED search: the append guard
additionally requires the effective term to equal lastGlobalSearchTerm,
so pagination stays suppressed from the first keystroke until the fresh
search replaces the result set. Regression spec covers the mid-debounce
refusal; the two existing append specs state their precondition
explicitly. portal-xtream-feature 359, lint clean.

* fix(xtream): per-selection scroll snapshots and progress-based auto-fill stop

Round-5 Codex P2s on #1392:

1. The single saved-scroll slot lost the first tab's position on a
   VOD -> Series -> VOD round trip — the series view's destroy hook
   overwrote it with series coordinates. Snapshots are now kept per
   selection identity (bounded to the 8 most recent), so a detour's save
   can never destroy another list's spot. Store API is unchanged.

2. The fixed 10-load auto-fill budget could strand items on a viewport
   large enough that ten chunks still do not overflow — with no
   scrollbar, no real scroll event can ever fire. The auto-fill now
   terminates on lack of progress instead: loads continue while they
   grow scrollHeight (until genuine overflow hands off to scroll
   events) and stop after three consecutive loads without growth, which
   only a source that reports more but renders nothing can produce.

Regression specs: VOD/Series round trip keeps both snapshots; growth
keeps filling past the old cap and stops at overflow; no-growth stalls
stop at three; reset key clears the stall guard. portal-shared-ui 83,
portal-xtream-data-access 235, catalog-sorting e2e 5/5 re-run, lint
clean. CLAUDE.md wording updated.

* feat(xtream): show a catch-up badge on live channels that have archive

Live channels whose provider declares playable catch-up (tv_archive=1
with a positive tv_archive_duration) now show a small history badge in
the channel sidebar next to the name and on the all-channels grid cards,
with the archive window (days) in the tooltip.

* fix(xtream): expose the catch-up badge status to assistive technology

The mat-icon is aria-hidden and the tooltip is pointer-only, so the
badge status was invisible to keyboard and screen-reader users. Both
badge surfaces now also render the translated status as visually-hidden
text (Codex review, P2).

* feat(xtream): show the catch-up badge in favorites and recent lists

Carries tvArchive/tvArchiveDuration through UnifiedFavoriteChannel so

* feat(ui): show the programme-info button in portal sidebars, stacked vertically

Adds the (i) programme-info button to the Xtream and Stalker live

(favorite on top, info below), so the second button costs no horizontal
space — the column is actually narrower than the previous single-button
row. The info slot is reserved (inert, visibility:hidden) while the row
has no programme, so the star never shifts when EPG data arrives.

4grayandClaude Fable 5 1a6af75761 feat(settings): per-section pages with unsaved-changes bar (#1384)
* feat(settings): split settings into per-section pages with an unsaved-changes bar

Replace the single scrolling settings page with routed section pages
(/workspace/settings/:section): the context-panel rail links each section,
only the active section renders, and unknown or capability-gated sections
redirect to General. The shared form lives on the parent component, so
staged edits survive section switches; a floating unsaved-changes bar
(Save/Discard) replaces the always-visible footer Save button. Rail links
navigate with replaceUrl so Back still leaves settings in one step.

Along the way:
- delete the unreachable settings dialog mode and the dead
  AppPortalNavigationActionsService with both of its never-injected DI
  tokens (PORTAL_NAVIGATION_ACTIONS, PLAYLIST_PLAYER_ACTIONS)
- delete the scroll-spy directive and pendingScrollTarget plumbing
- revive the EPG panel's "Open EPG settings" empty-state button as a deep
  link to /workspace/settings/epg; the M3U player now reports
  m3u-needs-setup only when the channel has no programmes and no EPG
  source exists in settings or on the playlist itself
- load TMDB cache stats when the Metadata page opens (the section
  component now only exists while its page is open)
- add SETTINGS.UNSAVED_CHANGES / SETTINGS.DISCARD_CHANGES to all 19 locales

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(settings): confirm before leaving with unsaved changes

Add settingsUnsavedChangesGuard (canDeactivate on the :section route) with
a three-action dialog: save and leave, leave without saving, keep editing.
The guard only intercepts leaving the settings AREA — section switches
share the one settings form and pass unconditionally, so the dialog can
never nag while moving between pages. A failed save cancels the navigation
instead of silently dropping the edits it promised to keep; leaving
without saving also reverts the live theme preview. Save-and-leave is
disabled while the form is invalid, with a hint explaining why.

New SETTINGS.UNSAVED_DIALOG_* keys in all 19 locales.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(settings): stage cover size and EPG view mode; adapt e2e to section pages

Cover size and EPG view mode were the only two controls that persisted
eagerly on click, which made Discard (and leave-without-saving) unable to
revert them: hydrateFromStore() faithfully reloaded the just-persisted
edit. They now stage in the form like every other setting and reach the
store on Save. Review finding by Greptile (P1) and Codex.

E2E suites that walk through settings are updated for one-section-page
rendering (epg, backup-roundtrip, xtream-epg, remote-control) and for the
staged cover size (downloads asserts the dataset after Save); the EPG icon
fallback test saves before leaving settings so the new unsaved-changes
dialog does not block its navigation.

4grayandClaude Fable 5 0010dd7351 feat(portals): rework the VOD sources popup and action row (#1359)
* feat(portals): rework the VOD sources popup and action row

The Sources popup now anchors above its button and always fits on screen:
the overlay caps it to the space beside the chip, only the source list
scrolls so the header, search, filter chips and footer stay visible, and
it flips below the button when the space above is too small. Filter chips
(All / Available / HD+ / language) compose with the playlist search, and
"Available" runs check-all itself when nothing has been checked yet.

Expanded copy rows no longer repeat the playlist domain: each copy shows
its parsed language chip, the provider's raw stream title, and only the
tags that differ from the parent copy.

Availability checks run at most four at a time and settled verdicts are
remembered per movie and source for ten minutes, so reopening a movie no
longer re-contacts every foreign portal.

Favorites and Download become icon-only buttons with real state: a filled
heart when favorited, and a download icon that turns into a progress ring
and then a checkmark that reveals the finished file.

The Xtream movie detail's favorite control is now an icon-only button, so

class. They are used against series and Stalker details too, which still
render the labeled variant, so they now select by accessible name — the
icon button carries the same label in aria-label.

* fix(portals): keep provider playback for a downloaded movie

Once a movie is downloaded the primary button plays the local file, and
the sources popover only exists when another playlist carries the same
film. The icon-only rework left those as the only two paths, so a
downloaded movie in a single-playlist library had no way at all to stream
the provider's copy — the labeled action that used to do it was gone.

Restores it as an icon button beside the downloaded checkmark, under the
same condition the old one used.

4grayandClaude Fable 5 b92503feae feat(stalker): endpoint probing + behavior-based portal mode with lazy repair (#1344)
* feat(stalker): endpoint probing + behavior-based portal mode with lazy repair

Replace the URL-shape guess behind isFullStalkerPortal with real endpoint
discovery: at import, probe portal.php -> server/load.php ->
stalker_portal/server/load.php (the pasted .php endpoint first) and
classify the portal by observed behavior — a token-less itv/get_genres
answering data proves a token-free panel, the middleware's plain-text
auth failure proves the endpoint enforces the token, confirmed by the
real handshake + get_profile. The proven endpoint and mode are persisted.

The three diverging portal-mode predicates (import, session service,
legacy migration) collapse into one shared helper in
@iptvnator/shared/interfaces; executeStalkerRequest becomes the single
request choke point (search and the collection stream resolver fold in),
and the production-dead makeStalkerRequest copy is removed.

Existing misclassified playlists repair themselves lazily: only after a
request actually fails with the plain-text auth bodies, HTTP 404, or a
terminal handshake error, at most once per playlist per session, and only
a configuration discovery proved to answer is persisted — via a minimal
portalUrl/isFullStalkerPortal patch, so favorites, recents and playback
positions survive. Working reseller panels are never probed or rewritten;
there is deliberately no eager one-shot migration, because tolerant
portal.php panels cannot be told apart from misclassified canonical
portals without probing.

The Electron handler now embeds the HTTP status code in the error message
(ipcRenderer.invoke strips custom properties from rejections), and probe
requests carry silent:true so expected 404s do not toast error snackbars.
The stalker mock gains a portal.php-less /ministra host so e2e can prove
the 404 fallthrough end to end.

Fixes #850, #686, #755.

* fix(stalker): sync watchdog, PWA proxy errors and cmd resolution with lazy repair

Review round 1 (Greptile P1, Codex P1/P2):

- A successful repair now re-syncs the ACTIVE watchdog playlist via the new
  StalkerSessionService.refreshActiveWatchdogPlaylist(): a simple-to-full
  repair starts the required keepalive mid-session, full-to-simple stops it,
  and an endpoint change repoints the pings instead of leaving them on the
  activation-time snapshot.
- PwaService.forwardStalkerRequest surfaces the web-backend proxy's
  normalized { message, status } no-payload envelope as an HTTP error
  carrying the status, so endpoint discovery and the lazy repair can
  classify upstream 404s in the PWA too (previously payload unwrapping
  returned undefined and dead endpoints were unrepairable there). Probe
  requests pass silent:true and skip the error snackbar.
- fetchStalkerPlaybackLink and the collection StreamResolverService re-apply
  the repair override AFTER the request, so a relative create_link reply
  resolves against the endpoint that actually answered (the resolver keeps
  the /stalker_portal path segment as base, so this matters beyond origin).

* fix(stalker): parse candidate URLs and tie repair overrides to their source config

Review round 2 (Codex P2 x2):

- Endpoint candidates are now derived from the parsed origin + pathname:
  a pasted URL carrying a query or fragment (host/c?key=value) no longer
  gets /portal.php bolted onto the query, which made every probe hit /c
  and persisted the non-API URL.
- A repair override is tied to the failing configuration it replaced.
  Playlists carrying anything else (the user edited the portal URL or mode
  through the playlist dialog) drop the override and re-arm the
  once-per-session probe latch, so edited metadata is used verbatim and
  may repair again if it fails.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): auth-gated probes, normalized offline fallback, mock docs sync

Review round 3 (Codex P1 x2, P2):

- A probe answered with HTTP 401/403 now classifies the endpoint as
  auth-required and attempts the real handshake instead of skipping the
  candidate: non-standard middlewares answer 401 where the stock server
  sends HTTP 200 + plain text, and such portals authenticated fine before
  discovery existed.
- The unreachable-host import fallback normalizes the pasted URL (origin +
  pathname) before the legacy /c -> portal.php rewrite, so a query or
  fragment can no longer make it persist the browser page URL - a 200 HTML
  answer from /c is not a repair trigger, which would have left the
  playlist empty for good.
- The stalker mock-server README and architecture doc now describe
  behavior-based discovery and the /ministra host instead of the retired
  URL-shape rule and its "known inconsistency" note.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): recognize JSON auth failures and guard repairs against mid-probe edits

Review round 4 (Codex P1 + P2):

- isStalkerAuthFailureResponse() recognizes the JSON envelope some panels
  answer instead of the plain-text body ({js:{error:"Authorization
  failed"}} / {js:{msg:...}}). Probe classification treats it as
  auth-required instead of token-free data, and the lazy-repair trigger
  fires on it at runtime — previously such a portal was persisted simple
  with no repair path at all.
- A repair is committed only after re-reading the persisted row and
  verifying it still carries the configuration that failed: a user who
  edits the portal URL (or deletes the playlist) during the multi-second
  probe now wins over the in-flight repair result for the old URL.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): probe past endpoint 5xx, sibling fallbacks, identity-aware repair guard

Review round 5 (Codex P2 x3):

- A probe that fails with a RESOLVABLE HTTP status keeps discovery going:
  a broken /portal.php handler answering 500 must not hide a healthy
  sibling endpoint. Only status-less failures (true network level) stop
  the loop. The Electron handler now gives real HTTP 5xx responses the
  same parseable "HTTP Error <code>" message shape as 4xx, so the
  renderer can tell them apart from ECONNREFUSED/timeouts after
  ipcRenderer strips the object shape.
- Standard fallback candidates for a nonstandard pasted endpoint
  (.../cp/api.php) derive from its DIRECTORY, so recovery probes hit
  /cp/portal.php instead of /cp/api.php/portal.php.
- The repair's row re-verification also compares the MAC and all Stalker
  identity fields: a probe authenticated as the old identity must not
  install its token/watchdog or persist onto a row whose credentials were
  edited mid-probe.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): reactivation-safe watchdog, wider JSON auth phrases, per-config probe latch

Review round 6 (Greptile 4/5 concern + Codex P1/P2):

- setCurrentPlaylist applies the repair override before feeding the
  watchdog and store state: re-activating the portal route with the stale
  NgRx meta no longer stops or repoints the repaired keepalive back to
  the broken configuration.
- The structured js.error/js.msg fields accept the full phrase set the
  session service recognizes (Invalid token, Auth failed, bare
  unauthorized/authorization) — panels answering those envelopes were
  still classified token-free. Plain-text body matching stays narrow on
  purpose (HTML false positives).
- The once-per-session probe latch is keyed by the SOURCE configuration
  fingerprint (endpoint, mode, MAC, identity) instead of the playlist id:
  a repair discarded because of a mid-probe edit no longer blocks the
  edited configuration from repairing, while stale snapshots of an
  already-probed configuration still cannot loop the probe.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): identity-aware override invalidation and timeout-tolerant probing

Review round 7 (Greptile P1 + Codex P2):

- The repair override records the identity fingerprint the probe
  authenticated as. Editing the MAC or any Stalker identity field
  afterwards drops the override, the per-config probe latch AND the cached
  token, so requests and watchdog pings never pair the edited identity
  with a session negotiated for the previous one.
- A status-less probe failure that is a TIMEOUT (renderer budget, axios
  request timeout, ETIMEDOUT) continues to the next candidate — one
  hanging handler must not hide healthy siblings; connection-level
  failures (refused, unresolvable host) still stop discovery, so dead
  hosts keep failing fast.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): watchdog pings authenticate as the persisted row

Review round 8 (Greptile 4/5 concern):

The watchdog held its activation-time playlist snapshot for the whole
session, so portal metadata edited (or repaired) mid-session kept the
keepalive authenticating as the previous identity/endpoint — its pings
could keep the old session alive and repopulate the playlist-scoped token
cache with a token for the pre-edit identity.

Each ping now resolves the playlist from the persisted row first (the
single source of truth), falling back to the snapshot only when the store
cannot be read, and refreshes the snapshot on every successful read. Any
edit — identity, endpoint or mode — reaches the keepalive within one ping
cycle; a row now marked simple (or deleted) stops the watchdog. The
in-flight guard is claimed before the row read so overlapping pings
cannot double-fire.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): identity-tagged tokens, watchdog override overlay, retire-on-failure

Review round 9 (Greptile 4/5 concern + Codex P2):

- The session token cache is tagged with the identity fingerprint (MAC +
  all Stalker identity fields) the session was negotiated for; ensureToken
  re-authenticates instead of handing an edited identity the previous
  token. The fingerprint helper is shared (stalker-identity.utils) with
  the repair layer's override/latch checks.
- Watchdog pings overlay the repair layer's in-session override on the
  resolved row (registered decorator, no import cycle): a simple-to-full
  repair whose persistence is pending or failed no longer reads the stale
  row and stops the freshly started keepalive.
- makeAuthenticatedRequest retires a failed token even on the no-retry
  path (watchdog pings), so a dead session is never handed to the next
  caller.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): pending authentications are identity-scoped

Review round 10 (Greptile 4/5 concern):

pendingAuth entries carry the identity fingerprint they authenticate as.
A request for an edited identity no longer adopts an in-flight result
negotiated for the previous identity: it waits the old authentication out
(a competing handshake would strand it with a dead token on strict
portals) and then negotiates its own session. This was the last
id-only-keyed session structure — override, probe latch, token cache,
watchdog snapshot and pending auth are now all identity-aware.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): atomic repair persistence, full probe history, normalized offline classify

Review round 11 (Codex P2 x3 + P1 docs):

- The repair's row verification and patch now run ATOMICALLY inside the
  per-playlist write queue via the new
  PlaylistsService.transformPlaylistMeta(): a user edit that is queued but
  not yet committed wins over the repair — the transform sees the edited
  row and aborts instead of overwriting it. Write failures after a
  successful verification keep the session-only override, read failures
  discard the repair.
- The per-playlist probe latch keeps EVERY attempted source fingerprint,
  so alternating edits (A -> B -> A) cannot evict a fingerprint and let
  stale snapshots re-run discovery.
- The unreachable-host import fallback classifies the normalized
  origin+pathname, so a query merely mentioning /server/load.php cannot
  make a panel URL look canonical and abort the offline import.
- docs/architecture/stalker-portal.md documents the actual probe
  sequencing: any resolvable HTTP status (incl. 5xx) and timeouts continue,
  401/403 classify as auth-required, only connection-level failures abort.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): collision-proof session fingerprints

Review round 12 (Greptile P1): identity values are unrestricted strings,
so the delimiter-joined fingerprint could alias distinct identity tuples
(serial "a|b" + empty device vs serial "a" + device "b") and bypass the
identity invalidation. Both the identity fingerprint and the repair
source fingerprint are JSON-encoded now; regression test pins the exact
aliasing pair.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): preserve URL authority in normalization; document per-config latch

Review round 13 (Codex P1 docs + P2):

- normalizeStalkerPortalInputUrl mutates the parsed URL (clear query/
  fragment, trim pathname) instead of rebuilding from origin, and the
  candidate builder swaps only the path — file: URLs (origin "null") no
  longer make the builder throw, and basic-auth credentials are not
  silently dropped before probing.
- The canonical docs and the repair service JSDoc now describe the actual
  loop guard: at most one probe per SOURCE CONFIGURATION (endpoint, mode,
  MAC, identity) per playlist per session, not once per playlist.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): HTTP 401/403 failures trigger the lazy repair

Review round 14 (Codex P1): discovery classifies 401/403 endpoints as
auth-required, but the repair trigger accepted only 404 — a legacy
playlist misclassified token-free against an HTTP-auth-gated middleware
could never reach discovery and stayed unusable. 401/403 now qualify;
endpoint-specific 5xx still do not.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): re-enter repair for edited configurations after a pending probe

Review round 15 (Codex P2): a request carrying an edited configuration
that raced an in-flight probe only awaited it and inherited its outcome —
the edited fingerprint stayed unattempted and the first request failed
without triggering its own discovery. repairPortal now re-enters after
awaiting the pending probe, so the per-config latch decides: already
attempted -> reapply, never attempted -> own probe.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): probe history remembers outcomes so restored configs repair again

Review round 16 (Greptile P1): the per-config latch kept A's fingerprint
after an edit to B dropped A's override, so restoring A left it latched
with nothing to reapply — broken until restart. The history now stores
each probe's OUTCOME (override or null): a restored configuration
reinstalls its remembered repair without a second discovery, and the
anti-ping-pong property (A<->B alternation never re-runs discovery from
stale snapshots) is preserved.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(playlist): serialize deletion behind the per-playlist write queue

Review round 17 (Codex P2): deletePlaylist bypassed
serializePlaylistWrite, so a queued mutation (e.g. the Stalker portal
repair's conditional transform) finishing after an unserialized delete
could upsert the row back and resurrect the playlist. Deletion now runs
through the same queue: queued writes commit first, the delete lands
last, and a transform enqueued after the delete reads a missing row and
aborts. Regression test pins the write-then-delete ordering.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): reinstalled repairs re-sync the watchdog like fresh ones

Review round 18 (Greptile P1): the restored-configuration branch
reinstalled the remembered override without the watchdog refresh the
fresh-repair path performs — if the intermediate edit stopped the
keepalive, the restored full-portal session recovered requests but never
its pings. The reinstall now calls refreshActiveWatchdogPlaylist with the
override applied, symmetric with a fresh repair.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): discarded probes retry once their configuration is restored

Review round 19 (Greptile P1): the pre-probe history reservation survived
the row-mismatch discard, so restoring the original configuration hit the
latch with nothing to reinstall — lazy repair stayed disabled for the
session. Probe records are now explicit (override / no-change /
discarded): a discarded configuration probes again once one cheap row
read confirms the row was RESTORED to it, while stale snapshots of it
stay declined without a discovery run.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): IPC-safe transport errors, repairable profile path, nested base paths

Review round 20 (Codex P2 x4):

- The Electron handler throws a real Error for axios failures without a
  response: Electron serializes rejections via toString(), so a plain
  object arrived as "[object Object]" and discovery could not tell a
  timeout (keep probing) from a dead host (stop).
- isAuthorizationError parses HTTP 401/403 out of the IPC-wrapped message,
  so an expired-token 403 retires the token and re-authenticates instead
  of surfacing as a plain failure.
- The account-info full-profile path (which bypasses
  executeStalkerRequest) routes repair-trigger failures through
  StalkerPortalRepairService and retries with the repaired playlist, so
  opening the dialog can fix a stale endpoint.
- resolveStalkerPlaybackUrl derives the installation base from the
  endpoint's API suffix instead of a fixed stalker_portal|c|portal
  allowlist: relative create_link replies now resolve correctly under
  arbitrary discovered installations such as /cp/server/load.php.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): strict probe data shape, mode-aware profile retry, docs API name

Review round 21 (Codex P1 docs + P2 x2):

- Probe classification requires the real get_genres shape (array, or a
  {data: []} envelope without an error) instead of a bare `js` key: a 200
  error envelope ({js:{error:"Unknown action"}}, {js:false}) no longer
  ends discovery on a broken candidate and persists an empty catalog.
- After a repair that flips the portal to simple mode, the account-info
  retry re-enters the mode routing and uses get_main_info instead of
  handshaking against a token-free panel again.
- docs/architecture/stalker-portal.md names transformPlaylistMeta and its
  atomic source-check invariant (plus the serialized deletion) rather than
  the race-prone updatePlaylistMeta.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): account dialog re-routes after a simple-to-full repair

Review round 22 (Codex P2): fetchViaMainInfo runs through
executeStalkerRequest, whose lazy repair retries the SAME action, so a
repair proving the portal is actually full left the dialog calling
get_main_info — canonical installations publish subscription details only
through handshake + get_profile, leaving the dialog empty. The routing is
now symmetric with the full-to-simple case: an empty main-info result
whose repair flipped the mode re-enters the profile flow.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): row-gate override reinstall; document mode-based account routing

Review round 23 (Codex P2 + P1 docs):

- Reinstalling a remembered override now requires the persisted row to
  actually carry that configuration again. A stale request for A while the
  row holds an unrelated C no longer resurrects A's override, which would
  retry against B and repoint the active watchdog away from C. (The
  edit-back-to-A case stays as documented: there the row IS A.)
- docs/architecture/stalker-portal.md and CLAUDE.md describe account-info
  routing by the observed portal MODE instead of the endpoint shape — a
  token-enforcing portal.php is a full portal now — and note the
  mode-change re-routing in both directions.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): share the auth-failure predicate; prefer profile over partial main-info

Review round 24 (Codex P1 + P2):

- isAuthorizationError now reuses isStalkerAuthFailureResponse, so the
  phrases discovery and the lazy repair already classify as auth failures
  (Access denied., Unauthorized request., and their JSON envelopes) also
  retire the session token. Previously a full portal expiring with either
  phrase kept its dead token: the repair rediscovered the same
  endpoint/mode, recorded no-change, and every later request stayed broken.
- After a simple-to-full repair, even a PARTIAL get_main_info answer no
  longer wins over the profile flow — expiry and tariff live only behind
  handshake + get_profile. The partial facts are kept only if the profile
  path itself publishes nothing.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): keep a literal c installation directory in candidate derivation

Review round 25 (Codex P2): the /c landing-page rewrite ran after the
endpoint file was stripped, so `/tenant/c/portal.php` collapsed to
`/tenant` and the sibling probes went one level too high, rejecting a
valid portal whose installation directory is literally named `c`. The
rewrite now applies only when the pathname itself ends in `/c` (no
endpoint file); pasted endpoints strip only the file part.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): route rejected post-repair main-info retries to the profile flow

Review round 26 (Codex P2): a simple-to-full repair during
fetchViaMainInfo makes executeStalkerRequest retry the same action against
the repaired full portal, and installations that do not implement
get_main_info answer 404 — the rejection escaped before the repaired-mode
check, so the dialog failed instead of switching to get_profile. The
rejection is captured and reaches the same check; without a mode change it
is rethrown unchanged.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): full predicate for wrapped denials; record the removed store prop

Review round 27 (Codex P2 + P1 docs):

- The repair trigger applies the shared auth-failure predicate to the error
  MESSAGE too, so authentication's wrapped structured denials
  (Error('Profile error: Access denied.')) reach the repair instead of
  bypassing it and leaving a healthy sibling endpoint unprobed.
- docs/architecture/stalker-store-api-baseline.md records makeStalkerRequest
  as removed, with the reason it gets no facade alias: it was
  production-dead and held a fourth private copy of the portal-mode branch
  that the shared predicate exists to prevent.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): complete auth predicate for wrapped error messages

Review round 28 (Codex P2): the plain-text BODY matcher deliberately knows
only the three middleware phrases, so passing an error message through it
let authenticate()'s wrapped denials — Error('Profile error: Invalid
token') / 'Auth failed' — bypass both the repair trigger and the session
auth predicate. A dedicated isStalkerAuthFailureMessage() applies the wide
phrase set to controlled error strings, while arbitrary portal bodies keep
the narrow matcher that cannot false-positive on HTML pages.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(stalker): reject denied profiles during confirmation; document all repair triggers

Review round 29 (Codex P2 + P1 docs):

- Full-portal confirmation validates the get_profile envelope with the
  shared structured predicate: a handshake can hand out a token whose
  profile still answers {js:{error:"Invalid token"}}, and authenticate()
  inspects only msg/block_msg — discovery would have persisted an unusable
  endpoint and stopped before the healthy sibling. authenticate() now
  returns the raw profile response for that check.
- The canonical lazy-repair contract lists the complete trigger set: the
  plain-text bodies AND their JSON envelopes, HTTP 404, HTTP 401/403, and
  terminal handshake/profile errors.

4grayandClaude Fable 5 fc7f23b229 feat(playback): forward portal Cookie/Authorization to built-in players (#1335)
* feat(playback): forward portal Cookie/Authorization to built-in players

The web players (HTML5/hls.js, Video.js, ArtPlayer, Shaka) could only ever
receive User-Agent/Referer/Origin, so any Stalker stream gated on the portal
session cookie or Bearer token played exclusively in external MPV/VLC — the
long-running "only VLC works" cluster (#849, #910, #732).

- request-header-overrides.service: the scoped override now carries Cookie
  and Authorization, attached only to requests on the exact stream origin,
  in-memory only, dropped on replace/clear. Unscoped (playlist-level) calls
  drop credentials fail-closed; control characters in header values are
  rejected. Chosen over session.cookies.set(): jar cookies attach only to
  credentialed requests, which would force withCredentials into every engine
  and break against the Access-Control-Allow-Origin:* IPTV panels send, and
  jar scoping is port-blind.
- WebPlayerViewComponent is now the single owner of the scoped override for
  every built-in player: it extracts the full header set from the resolved
  playback, configures the override BEFORE handing the source over (players
  render only once the source exists), and clears the scoped layer on
  destroy. HtmlVideoPlayerComponent's own three-header call is removed — it
  would overwrite the credentialed override.
- Stalker VOD, series episodes and radio now build the same portal header
  set ITV already had (they previously carried no portal headers at all);
  same-origin playback sends the real User-Agent alongside X-User-Agent.
- Stream classification is host-based via one shared predicate
  (isStalkerStreamCredentialSafe): same-host port changes and scheme
  upgrades keep the portal profile (the #1158 class), a foreign host or
  https->http downgrade keeps the credential-free KSPlayer profile. The
  main-process fallback context uses the same predicate so
  isStalkerDirectStreamProfile can no longer discard renderer headers.
- setUserAgent bridge gains an optional credentials parameter; preload,
  ipcMain handler and ElectronBridgeApi updated together.
- stalker-mock-server: gated-stream scenario (MAC 00:1A:79:00:00:09) whose
  create_link returns a local /stream/gated/video.mp4 that 403s without the
  mac cookie + current Bearer token; new Electron e2e proves a built-in
  player actually plays it (and that the gate refuses bare requests).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(playback): apply header override to Stalker radio, redact mock cookie log

Address Codex review feedback on #1335:

- The radio branch of the Stalker live layout renders the dedicated audio
  player, never WebPlayerViewComponent, so the resolved portal headers were
  built but never applied — an auth-gated radio stream still 403'd. The
  override sync is extracted into ElectronStreamHeadersService (single owner
  of the scoped override slot, with clear-only-while-owning semantics so a
  destroyed consumer cannot wipe a newer consumer's override), applied by
  WebPlayerViewComponent for video players and by the radio branch before
  the audio element gets its URL. The service feature-detects the bridge
  method so partial bridges behave like the PWA instead of throwing.
- The gated-stream mock no longer logs the raw Cookie header on 403 —
  presence only, matching the Authorization logging.
- The gated scenario now serves an audio fixture for radio create_link and
  the Electron e2e covers the radio path end-to-end (bare request 403s,
  built-in audio player advances past the gate).

* fix(playback): claim radio header ownership before awaiting the IPC

Codex round-2 P2: leaving the radio route while the header IPC was still in
flight left the portal cookie/token installed — ngOnDestroy saw a null scope
URL (it was recorded only after the await) and could not clear the override.
Ownership is now claimed synchronously before awaiting, destroy invalidates
the pending playback continuation, and the apply's stillCurrent verdict is
honored. Regression test covers destroy-during-pending-IPC.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(playback): carry portal headers into collection playback

Codex round-3 P1: Stalker channels opened from Favorites/Recently Viewed
resolved through StreamResolverService.resolveStalker(), which returned no
portal headers — the video path handed the header owner an empty set and
collection radio bypassed it entirely, so auth-gated streams still 403'd
from collections.

- resolveStalker() now builds the same profile as the live layout via the
  shared classifier: portal-owned streams get mac cookie/Bearer token/MAG
  UA/portal Origin+Referer, foreign hosts keep the credential-free KSPlayer
  profile (both create_link results and direct radio URLs).
- UnifiedLiveTabComponent applies the scoped override for radio before the
  audio element gets its URL (ownership claimed before awaiting the IPC,
  round-2 lesson), and clears it on close and destroy.
- Regression tests: resolver header profiles for portal-host and foreign
  streams; unified tab radio apply-then-clear.

* fix(playback): release the radio override when a new selection mounts no player

Codex round-4 P2: after radio installed its credentials, selecting an item
that never mounts a player surface (external video playback, failed
resolution) left the old Cookie/Authorization installed — no
WebPlayerViewComponent, close, or destroy cleanup runs on that path. Both
radio hosts (unified collection tab and the Stalker live layout, which has
the identical hole) now release the previously owned radio scope at the
start of every new selection; the slot-ownership semantics keep this a
no-op when another playback already owns the override. Regression test in
the live-layout spec pins the failed-selection path.

* docs(playback): state the exact override release points

Codex round-5 P2 flagged that the media 'ended' event does not clear the
scoped override while the player stays mounted. That is deliberate, not a
gap: a mounted player still owns the session — replay or a seek into an
unbuffered range must keep working against a gated stream, and clearing on
'ended' would 403 exactly the streams this PR fixes. The credentials only
ever travel to the exact origin that issued them, and every dismount path
(channel/source change, player close/destroy, radio close, playerless
selection) releases them. The security doc and the release note now say
precisely that instead of the ambiguous "cleared when playback ends".

4grayandClaude Fable 5 297e9fbef8 fix(stalker): send cmd in the reference MAG wire format (#1334)
* fix(stalker): send cmd in the reference MAG wire format

A real MAG sends cmd unencoded and the portal decodes its query exactly
once, so a cmd that already contains percent sequences (%3A tokens,
pre-encoded path segments) must pass through untouched. The previous
encodeURIComponent transport (2c032cd3c, 0.22) double-encoded such cmds
(%3A -> %253A): strict portals and reseller panels that compare cmd
literally, and stock create_link handlers matching the decoded value,
saw a different string than a real STB sends.

The new shared encodeStalkerCmdValue() reproduces the reference wire
bytes: % passes through verbatim, characters the WHATWG URL serializer
keeps raw in a query stay raw (so the bytes survive the axios/new URL
transport unchanged), and everything else is percent-encoded. That
preserves the 0.22 injection protection - &, # (and ; for PHP setups
with a ; argument separator) inside cmd cannot append or truncate query
parameters; they decode back to the original byte server-side.

Both transports now share the format: the Electron query builder is
extracted to buildStalkerRequestUrl() and the web-backend /stalker
proxy appends cmd to the portal URL itself instead of letting axios
turn slashes into %2F (the opposite divergence).

Also unifies the two divergent response-side cmd normalizers: the
cross-portal collection resolver now uses the Stalker store's
normalizeStalkerPlaybackCommand/resolveStalkerPlaybackUrl, so playing
from Favorites/global collections resolves relative (/media/...) and
query-only (?token=...) create_link replies against the portal base
instead of handing the player a bare relative path.

The mock portal's create_link response gains mock-only cmd_received/
query_keys_received diagnostics; a new Electron e2e pins the contract
end-to-end (single decode, injection blocked). Unit corpus tests cover
the encoder, the Electron builder, the web-backend proxy, and the
resolver.

* fix(pwa): sanitize portal URL before appending stalker cmd

A registered portal URL carrying a fragment would swallow the appended
cmd (everything after # is never transmitted), and a trailing bare '?'
produced '??cmd='. Drop the hash and pick the separator from the
sanitized href before appending. Flagged by Greptile/Codex on #1334.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(pwa): make stalker cmd append visibly query-only for CodeQL

Rebuild the /stalker request URL through the URL object and concatenate
the encoded cmd strictly behind a literal '?', so static analysis can
see the tainted value never reaches host or path (js/request-forgery
alert on the previous separator ternary). Behavior unchanged; the
fragment/bare-'?' regression tests still pin the wire format.

4grayandClaude Opus 5 063662028a feat(portals): find the same movie in your other playlists (#1286)
* feat(portals): find the same movie in your other playlists

A movie that exists in several imported Xtream playlists now shows a
"Sources N" chip on its detail page and in the player. Switching playlist
mid-film keeps the timecode, a preferred source can be pinned per movie, and
a failed stream offers the alternatives instead of a dead end.

The governing rule is that a guess is never presented as a fact. Every
metadata value carries where it came from — `api` (the provider said so),
`parsed` (inferred from the title) or `probe` (we contacted the stream).
Facts render as plain tags, guesses are prefixed `~` in a warning colour, and
an unknown value renders no tag at all plus a "check" affordance. Ranking and
failover read through `factualOnly()`, so a filename claiming 4K is
structurally unable to outrank a source that was actually reached. A probe
that could not complete reports "unknown", never "unavailable".

Scope is deliberately narrow: Xtream to Xtream, movies only, Electron only.
Stalker never reaches the `content` table and M3U is a JSON blob whose search
forces live content; both are additive later, since the candidate type
already carries all three portal kinds. In the PWA every entry point is gated
off and the chip renders nothing.

Auto-failover is opt-in and off by default. Each source is tried at most once
per session, so it terminates structurally, and the switch is never silent —
the toast names the new playlist, offers an undo, and warns that the dub may
differ only when both sides state an audio track as fact.

Notable details:
- Playlist names are routinely the pasted URL, credentials included. They are
  never rendered raw; a short host-only label is derived instead.
- Quality is derived from pixel width, not height: a 2.39:1 1080p master is
  1920x800, and bucketing that by height would publish "720p" as a fact.
- Switching is a single `inlinePlayback.set()` so the player and engine
  survive and re-seek; the carried position is read before the 15s
  persistence throttle so it does not rewind.
- Sources from one playlist collapse into a group, since the same film often
  appears there several times under different stream ids.

* fix(portals): stop stale source resolutions from committing

Addresses three defects Greptile found in the multi-source review.

**Concurrent switches committed out of order.** Selecting a second source
before the first resolution returned let the slower request overwrite the
newer selection and repoint Undo at itself. `switchTo` now takes a sequence
number and drops its result if a newer switch already committed.

**Stale switches crossed movie sessions.** Navigating to another film while a
resolution was in flight let the continuation activate the old film's source
inside the new controller — and restart it from that session's zero resume
position. The controller is now snapshotted per operation and the movie
session is revalidated after every await. `check()` had the same hazard across
its two awaits and is guarded the same way.

**Short titles skipped discovery entirely.** The trigram tokenizer cannot index
tokens under three characters, so "Up", "It" or "Us" produced an empty MATCH
expression and the query was discarded before SQLite was consulted — the chip
could never appear for those films. Discovery now falls back to a bounded scan
when FTS structurally cannot serve the title; the existing two-tier normalized
confirmation still rejects loose hits like "Upgrade".

Each fix carries a regression test; all three were mutation-checked by removing
the guard and confirming exactly those tests fail. The previous test asserting
that short titles return nothing encoded the bug and has been replaced.

The host spec passed 400 lines, so its fixtures moved to a shared module and
the race suite into its own file.

* fix(portals): make the pin decide playback and keep failover going

Second round of Greptile review findings.

**A pin had no behavioural effect.** Loading a stored pin only decorated the
row: Play still started the route's playlist and failover ranking ignored
`isPinned`, so "make this the main source" survived a restart as an icon and
nothing else. The primary action now starts from the pinned source when one is
set, and the pin outranks everything else in failover ranking.

**Failover stopped at the first unresolvable candidate.** An expired account or
a failing `get_vod_info` on the top-ranked source ended the attempt, and since
production calls `failover()` only once — on the original playback failure — a
healthy lower-ranked source was never reached. It now continues through untried
candidates. `switchTo` reports why it stopped so the loop can tell "could not
resolve, try the next one" from "something newer owns the screen"; without that
distinction a superseded switch would have spun forever, because only the
former marks the candidate tried.

**Identity ignored enrichment.** The key was `playlistId:contentId:title`, so
when `get_vod_info` added a TMDB id and release year to an unchanged title the
host saw no change, never reloaded, and kept yearless discovery and title-only
pin keys — a `tmdb:`-keyed pin could never be found. The key now covers every
field that affects matching.

**A server refusing HEAD read as unavailable.** Some stream hosts answer 405 or
501 to HEAD yet serve the media over GET. The probe now retries once with the
ranged GET the main process already supported, instead of caching a working
source as failed and penalising it during failover.

Greptile also flagged a missing token check after the resolve await in
`switchTo`; that guard landed in 4db3a2fd and sits on the line directly below.
Answered on the thread rather than changed.

The host service passed 400 lines again, so the pin, probe, switch-notice and
current-row concerns moved into focused modules beside it.

* docs(portals): record the behaviour the review rounds changed

The architecture doc and CLAUDE.md described the feature as first written, not
as it now behaves: pins were documented as a stored preference without saying
they decide playback, failover was described as stopping at the first
unresolvable candidate, the probe as HEAD-only, and discovery as pure FTS with
no mention that short titles cannot be tokenized at all.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): invalidate the session while the movie identity is empty

The staleness guard added in 4db3a2fd bumped the session only inside `load()`,
which leaves a window the guard does not cover: route navigation empties the
movie identity first, and `load()` for the replacement runs only once a title
is knowable again. A resolution completing in that interval still carried a
session number that matched, so it passed the check and started the previous
movie's source over the page the user was navigating to.

The binding effect now bumps the session as soon as the identity goes null, so
anything already in flight is invalidated at the moment the old movie stops
being the one on screen rather than when the next one finishes loading.

`lastMovieKey` is deliberately left alone: returning to the same movie should
not re-run discovery, and the controller's state is still correct — only the
in-flight operations needed invalidating.

Regression test added and mutation-checked: removing the bump fails exactly
that test.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): stop the source list from losing the real alternatives

Six review findings, all in how multi-source decides what to show and what
it is playing.

Discovery: the current playlist is now excluded in SQL rather than after the
fact, so its own duplicate rows can no longer spend the whole row budget
before a single alternative is read. The short-title scan matches the token
as a word instead of a substring and orders by title length in a wider
window, so "Titanic" and "The Italian Job" cannot push the real "It" out of
it.

Session: metadata enrichment re-runs discovery for the film already on
screen. That is a refresh, not a new session — a second identity key
(playlistId:contentId) now separates the two, so the source the user
switched to keeps playing and stays named, the tried set stays burned, the
position survives and a switch in flight still commits.

Resume: the multi-source controller no longer records the engine's pre-seek
timeupdate at ~0. The playback service's one-shot latch now reports whether
the position can be believed, and until it can, the requested start time
stands in — so a switch during the initial seek does not restart the film.

UI: the in-player sources picker gets the same auto-failover setting and
match kind as the detail page's, instead of always rendering the default and
dropping the toggle. The caption counts distinct playlists, not stream
variants, since the popover groups a portal's copies under that portal.

Session mechanics and the pin toggle move into their own modules to keep the
host service inside the line budget.

* fix(portals): keep the playing row when the refined year rejects it

Follow-on from keeping the session across a rediscovery. The rerun can
legitimately drop the row that is playing: enrichment supplies the release
year, and the year gate then rejects a copy the yearless search had admitted
— "Dune" 1984 while the user is watching the 2021 film.

Off the list is right; it is not the same film. Off the screen is not. It is
what is streaming, so it stays as a row and keeps the playing badge, rather
than letting the caption name a playlist that is not sending any bytes.

Also covers the new session key directly in the identity spec.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): stop a pin write from landing on the next movie

Two findings from the review of the previous round.

A pin write is an IPC round-trip, and the user can navigate during it. The
continuation then applied one film's answer to another film's controller —
and because unpinning returns "nothing pinned", it would clear the pin the
new movie had just loaded and its Play action would quietly stop starting
from the preferred source. It now commits only while the same film is still
on screen, like every other async path here.

The short-title scan drops its row limit. FTS keeps its window because it
ranks by relevance, so what it keeps is what matters; a scan cannot rank, so
a window there silently decides which valid sources the user is allowed to
see. It also bought nothing: the GLOB cannot use an index, so SQLite reads
every row either way and the limit only truncated the answer. What bounds
the scan is its predicate — reaching it means the whole title is one or two
characters.

The switch-notice type moves to the module that builds it, which also
removes a circular type import between the two.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): keep external playback, the pin and the resume point honest

Five findings from the round-5 review.

An external player launched for an alternative carries that playlist's ids,
so the page disowned its own session: the primary button never became Stop,
stopping found nothing to stop, and another click opened a second player.
Multi-source now tells playback which source is actually active, and the
matcher accepts either that or the route's own stream.

Stop also has to beat the pin. The primary action consults the pin first —
that is what makes a pin decide where playback starts — but while a session
is running the same button reads Stop, and consulting the pin there made the
control do the opposite of its label.

A pinned source started from the Resume button resolved at zero, because
nothing reports a live position until the first timeupdate. The controller is
now seeded from the persisted position, one-way: a live value always wins,
since the stored one lags it and applying it would rewind.

A pin whose write failed was still shown as pinned, promising a preference
that reopening the movie would not have.

Portal failures in this path logged raw errors. An Xtream error message
carries the stream URL, and that URL is built out of the username and
password, so they now go through the redacting logger.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): make every alias of a pin agree, and stop losing rows

Four findings from the latest review pass.

A pin lookup accepts several aliases of the same movie, but a write only
touched the most-trusted one — so after enrichment the title alias still
pointed at whatever was pinned before, and a reopen that read it (because
TMDB had not landed yet, or its request failed) started the source the user
had just replaced. Writes now go to every alias.

That alias set was also missing one. Enrichment supplies the year as well as
the id, so a pin set before either existed is stored yearless; the candidate
list skipped that form entirely and orphaned the row.

Discovery could lose whole playlists: one playlist listing a film in dozens
of categories produces identically ranked rows that fill the window before
another playlist is read. The collapse now happens in SQL, before the limit,
rather than in TypeScript afterwards where the missing rows are already gone.

And an abandoned source pick finishing late cleared the spinner from the row
the user was actually waiting on.

Removes `isExhausted()` from the host service — no caller outside its own
tests, where the assertion above it already proved the same thing.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): probe like playback, and stop the pin answering for a remake

Five findings from the latest review pass.

Writing a pin to every alias — last round's fix for stale aliases — was
wrong in the other direction: `title:{base}:` is shared by every remake, so
a known-year decision stored there answers for a different film. Pin Dune
(2021), open Dune (1984) before its year arrives, and it would start the
2021 source. A write now clears every alias and stores only the canonical
key, which retires the stale ones without making any of them ambiguous.

The probe checked a bare URL while playback sends the playlist's User-Agent,
Referer and Origin. A panel that requires them answers 401/403, so a stream
that plays perfectly was reported dead and penalised in failover ranking.

The switch toast interpolated the raw playlist name. Users routinely name a
playlist after the URL they pasted, so that line could put credentials over
the video; the notice now carries the same safe label the rows use.

External players have no timeupdate, so their polled position IS the live
one. Feeding it through the seed — which stops at the first value — froze
the resume point where playback started, and a switch an hour in rewound to
the beginning.

And auto-failover concluded "nowhere to go" when a stream failed before
discovery answered, stranding the user on the error screen.

Moves `switchTo` into the session module, which is where the rest of the
switch mechanics already live, and splits the route spec along the same
rendering/behaviour seam the other suites use.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): re-check the movie after waiting, and follow the alternative

Three findings, two of them regressions from the previous round.

Awaiting a pending discovery before failover let the user navigate during
that wait: the continuation then ran against whatever controller was current
and could answer one film's playback failure by starting another film's
alternative. Both waits — failover and pinned Play — now re-check that the
same movie still owns the screen.

Pinned Play also needed the wait it did not have. Pressing Play while the
pin lookup was still out concluded "nothing is pinned" and started the
route's own source, making a persisted preference depend on worker latency.

And the position bridge still accepted only the route's ids, so an external
player running an alternative had every progress update discarded: the
resume point stayed where playback began and a switch an hour in rewound the
lot. The session matcher and the bridge now share one ownership predicate,
since a page that shows Stop for a session whose progress it throws away is
the bug in two halves.

The test for the external case previously set the position signal directly,
which bypassed the very filter that was broken; it now drives the bridge.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): stop a remake matching, and let a pin survive its own playlist

Three findings from the latest review pass.

`normalizeTitleKeys` strips bracketed segments as tag noise, so "Dune (1984)"
normalizes to exactly "dune" — an EXACT match for the 2021 film, ranked above
every fuzzy one, with the year never consulted because that tier skipped the
gate. Auto-failover could switch the user to the other film entirely. The
year is now read out of brackets too, and a stated disagreement rejects the
row on either tier.

Playback positions are keyed by (playlist, stream), so watching through a
pinned alternative stores progress under ITS ids while the page loads the
route copy's row. Starting the pin therefore resumed from a position
belonging to a different copy — usually zero. It now loads its own.

And a pin can point at another copy of the film inside the playlist being
viewed, which discovery excludes wholesale: the pinned row was absent from
the list, so nothing showed as pinned and Play ignored the preference. The
pin is now read before discovery, which keeps that one row.

Moves the pin-shaped decisions into the pin module, where the persistence
helpers already live.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): keep a pinned play, a same-playlist copy and Check honest

Five findings from the latest review pass.

Reading a pinned source's own position is a database round-trip, and the user
can navigate across it — the continuation then handed one film's source id to
whichever movie now owned the screen. Guarded, like every other await here.

Allowing a pinned copy to live in the current playlist made "is this the
route's own source?" a two-part question, and the ownership check still asked
only about the playlist: an external session for that copy was disowned, so
Stop vanished and its progress was dropped.

The yearless title alias is shared by every remake, so clearing every alias
before a write could delete a different film's pin. Writes and unpins now
touch only keys that name one film — plus the ambiguous row this session
actually read, which is the one the user is looking at and the one whose
absence would make an unpin come back.

Restart left the seeded position in the controller, so a failure before the
first timeupdate resolved the next source back at it.

And the alternative rows on the playback-error screen had a Check button
wired to nothing at all.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): stop a rediscovery restoring the pin it started with

A same-movie rediscovery read the pin, then held that snapshot across its
source lookup and applied it afterwards. A pin made while the lookup was out
was therefore overwritten by the older value: the row and the primary Play
action named a source the database no longer held.

The snapshot is now applied as soon as it is read, so a later write simply
wins on ordering rather than needing to be detected.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): write the pin before retiring it, and keep the badge honest

Three findings from the latest review pass.

Repinning cleared the old rows and then wrote the new one, so a write that
failed after the clear left nothing persisted while the row still showed the
old pin. The order is reversed: the new key is stored first and the stale
ones retired only once it landed. Lookups are most-trusted-first, so a
leftover alias never outranks what was just written.

Starting a source from the picker, or letting a pin decide the primary Play,
never recorded the movie as recently viewed — unlike every other way of
playing it.

And closing an alternative's player and pressing Play started the route
stream while the controller still marked the alternative active, so the
picker and caption named a source that was not running.

Moves the discovery pass into the session module beside the switch and
failover mechanics, and splits the pin spec along the persistence/playback
seam, both to stay inside the file-size rule.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): stop claiming playback, a cached answer and a resolution

Three findings, all of them the same rule: never state as fact something the
app has not established.

The "Playing from …" caption appeared as soon as discovery marked a source
active — before Play was pressed, and again after the player was closed. It
now requires a player that is actually running.

Probe answers were cached by URL alone, but the request now carries the
playlist's headers. Two playlists sharing a stream URL could therefore be
told the other's answer, marking a source dead without ever asking it.

And any width below 900 was labelled 480p, published with `api` provenance:
a 640x360 stream stated 480p as a fact, and a 720x576 PAL source likewise.
Widths below HD only resolve with the height — 720 is NTSC 480p or PAL 576p
— so an unrecognised shape now carries no quality tag at all.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): match the sub-HD formats, and drop the caption on failure

Two follow-ups to the previous round, both the same rule again.

The 800-wide band still answered from the width alone, so 800x600 and
800x450 were labelled 480p — published with `api` provenance, so read as a
measurement. Sub-HD formats are now matched against known shapes with the
same 5% tolerance the height path uses, and anything unrecognised carries no
tag at all.

And "Playing from ..." survived a playback failure: the inline host stays
mounted while the diagnostic is on screen, so the page named a source for a
stream it had just reported it could not play. The caption now clears on
failure and returns when the engine produces time again.

Splits the route playback spec along the "what it does" / "what it claims"
seam and lifts the repeated active-source stub into one helper.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): let the height veto a width match, and hold the failure state

Two follow-ups to the previous round, both in code it introduced.

A width that matched exactly one sub-HD format ignored the height entirely,
so 640x480 came back as 360p — a measurement the numbers contradict. The
height now vetoes, but only in the direction that can be wrong: cropping
removes lines, so a SHORTER frame is a letterboxed master of that format and
the width still names it, while a taller one is a different shape and gets
no tag. That keeps the reason width is preferred in the first place.

And picking a source off the error screen cleared the failure state before
the switch resolved, so an alternative that could not be resolved left the
diagnostic on screen while the caption went back to claiming playback. The
flag now clears only once a switch actually starts something.

* fix(portals): release the resume latch when the target cannot be reached

Carrying a position into a shorter cut of the same film — two hours into a
90-minute source — leaves the engine unable to ever report that time, so the
one-shot latch never released: every position save was suppressed for the
rest of the session, and the impossible start time kept being reported to
multi-source for the next switch.

The latch now also opens when a known duration puts the requested point out
of reach, while a reachable one still waits as before.

* fix(portals): say "Playing" only while something is playing

`isActive` means "the source a switch or Play would use". Discovery sets it
the moment the page opens and it survives closing the player, so it could not
back the two claims the UI made in the present tense: the "Playing from"
caption and the source row's Playing badge. Both appeared on a page where
nothing had started, and came back after the player was closed.

`playbackLive` is now that statement, and both read it. Inline it needs a
timeupdate — `inlinePlayback()` is only the REQUEST to play, non-null while
the engine is still opening the stream and still non-null after it fails —
and external it needs the session past `launching`. A row that is merely
selected reads "Current" (new key, filled for all 19 locales).

* fix(portals): start a never-watched pinned source from the beginning

Positions are keyed by (playlist, stream). When the pin points at a copy the
user has never opened, the lookup returns nothing and the controller was left
holding the ROUTE copy's position — so Play dropped them 42 minutes into an
unstarted film, and the first save wrote that timecode back under the pinned
source's key, making it permanent.

The spec asserted the old behaviour, so it is flipped rather than extended; a
second case covers the host that supplies no lookup at all, where "never
watched" was never established and the position must be left alone.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): describe the copy the primary button will actually play

Two gaps found by review.

A pin makes the primary button play a copy the page never loaded a position
for — positions are keyed by (playlist, stream). The label, timecode and
Restart affordance still came from the route copy's row, so the button could
read "Resume 42:18" and start an unwatched copy at zero, or read "Play" and
jump into the middle of one already watched. `createPrimaryActionPosition`
lets the pinned copy's row govern, including when that row is absent: never
watched is an answer, not a fallback to someone else's progress.

A manual source switch also mounts a DIFFERENT stream in the same host while
marking the new source active at once, so the previous stream's timeupdate was
still vouching for it — the caption and the badge claimed the new source while
it was still opening. That path now clears the latch like Play and Restart do.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): keep the route's own resume point, and honour a closed pin

Two more from review, both variations on "selected is not playing".

`vodPlaybackPosition` followed whichever copy last reported — so after an
alternative played, Resume and its label described that copy's row while
starting the route's stream, jumping it to a timecode nobody reached in it.
It now splits: `vodPlaybackPosition` stays the last position seen (the
progress bar and the switch handoff want the stream on screen), and
`routePlaybackPosition` holds the route copy's own row for everything that
acts on the route's stream.

`pinnedSourceAwaitingPlay` skipped the pin whenever its row was active, but
`isActive` means selected — the pinned row stays selected after its player is
closed, so the next Play went to the route copy and ignored the stored
preference until the page was reopened. It now takes `playbackLive` too.

The host service crossed the 400-line cap on the way, so the four derived
alternative counts moved into `vod-multi-source-counts.ts`.

* fix(portals): keep the primary button honest across navigation and pins

Four follow-ups from review, all consequences of splitting the position
signals.

- Route reuse (the Similar rail) cleared only `vodPlaybackPosition`, so the
  button kept the previous movie's Resume label — and start point — until the
  new lookup landed. Both signals and the playback latch now reset together.
- The primary button's fall-through past an unresolvable pin reached the
  service directly, skipping the bookkeeping a route start needs: the
  controller kept the alternative's timecode and the old stream's timeupdate
  still vouched for the new one. It now goes through the route's own wrappers,
  and Resume seeds the controller with the ROUTE copy's position.
- `alternativePlaylistCount` counted the playlist being watched whenever it
  held a second copy, so "also found in 2 other playlists" could mean one.
- The pinned copy's stored row went stale the moment the user watched it; its
  live position now wins while it is the one playing.

* fix(portals): do not spend a source's failover turn on mere selection

`setActiveSource` marked the source tried, but discovery calls it the moment
the page opens and a pin or the picker can call it before anything plays. So
opening a movie burned the route copy's turn: if a pinned alternative then
failed, failover skipped a healthy untouched source — and with only one
alternative, reported the options exhausted.

Selection and attempt are now separate. `setActiveSource` selects;
`markPlaying` also spends the turn, and only the three places that really
start playback call it. `runFailover` additionally retires whatever is on
screen before picking, so the failing source is spent however it got there —
relying on the start paths alone would leave one hole per path, and the cost
of missing it is a ping-pong between two sources.

One existing spec asserted the old behaviour (a route copy burned by a switch
it never played); it now plays first, so it still covers what it meant to —
that the tried set survives a rediscovery.

* feat(portals): carry VOD source pins through playlist backup

The new pins table was invisible to backup: exporting a playlist and
re-importing it on a new machine silently dropped every "main source" choice,
with nothing in the archive to say the choice had ever been made.

Pins now ride along under the playlist they point AT — carrying them anywhere
else would restore a preference for a portal the archive never contained.
`matchKey` names the film rather than the portal, so it survives untouched and
only the playlist id is remapped to the imported copy.

`sourcePins` is the one optional collection in the Xtream user state: archives
written before multi-source existed simply do not have it, so its absence is
age rather than damage. Only a wrong type is rejected, and pins without a
usable match key or content id are dropped, since writing one would occupy the
unique key of a film it does not describe.

Adds `DB_LIST_VOD_SOURCE_PINS` through the usual six seams (operation, worker
case, event, preload, bridge contract, service).

* test(portals): follow the normalized restore state's new collection

`normalizeXtreamPendingRestoreState` now always emits `sourcePins`, like every
other collection it canonicalizes, so three specs that assert the exact
normalized shape had to follow. Adds coverage for the sanitizing itself: a pin
without a usable match key or content id is dropped, and a non-string
`updatedAt` is discarded rather than carried.

Caught by CI, not locally — the earlier full run served `playlist-shared-ui`
from the Nx cache, so it reported green on a stale result.

* refactor(portals): lift the VOD route's orchestration out of the component

The details route had grown to 864 lines — the repository's hard maximum is
400, and while the file predates the rule, a baselined exemption is not a
budget to spend.

Three component-provided services now hold what the component was
accumulating: `VodDetailsMultiSourceUiService` (the playback-evidence latch,
the caption, the primary button's position, source actions and the failover
toast), `VodDetailsSimilarService` (the rail and its cross-portal lookup), and
`VodDetailsDownloadsService`. The component keeps its public API, so the
template and the existing specs are untouched. 864 -> 566 lines.

The downloads move also fixes a latent bug: `downloadVod` and `playFromLocal`
read `route.snapshot.params`, which is stale once the router reuses this
component for detail-to-detail navigation (the Similar rail) — so a download
started from a film reached that way fetched the previous one. They now read
the same route-params signal everything else uses, with a regression test.

Also from review: pins are applied on the FRESH-import path too. A new
playlist has no content when the archive is read, so its user state is parked
and replayed after the import — the merge path I wired first never ran there,
and every pin was dropped. A failed pin write now propagates instead of being
ignored: the backup entry is reported failed, and the parked state is kept so
a transient failure can be retried rather than silently losing the preference.

* fix(portals): read array-shaped codecs, bound short-title scans, honour alias clears

Three from review.

`info.video`/`info.audio` are declared — and sent by the mock server and many
panels — as string arrays, but the resolver only read the ffprobe object shape.
Every array response therefore lost the provider's codec, so those source rows
showed no codec fact and the "dub may differ" warning could never fire.
`readStreamInfo` now accepts both, and states nothing when the provider stated
nothing.

The FTS-empty fallback scan matched only the FIRST token, which is fine for a
one-word short title but not for "I Am": every catalog row containing the word
"i" came back for TypeScript to throw away — a full scan of a large catalog on
the single database worker, just to open a detail page. Every token must now
appear.

`writePin` reported success when the canonical write landed but retiring the
old alias failed. Lookups read aliases before the canonical key, so reopening
the movie before enrichment would start the source the user just replaced,
with the icon promising otherwise.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): write a pin and retire its aliases in one transaction

Split across two calls, a half-failure had no honest outcome. Reporting
success left a surviving alias to win the next lookup and start the source the
user had just replaced; reporting failure — which the previous round changed
it to — left the canonical row durable while the UI showed a pin that was no
longer the stored one. Review was right both times, which is the tell that the
two-step shape was the problem.

`setVodSourcePin` now takes the keys to retire and does both inside one
`db.transaction()`, with the synchronous `.run()` form the better-sqlite3
driver requires there (issue #1137's lesson). `retireKeys` rides through the
worker op, the IPC contract, the preload bridge and the service, so there is
one call and one outcome.

Also corrects the architecture doc: the scan path is reached whenever no token
clears the trigram minimum, not only when the whole title is one or two
characters — the claim the previous commit's code change had already falsified.

* fix(portals): tell a superseded pinned play from an unusable pin

Double-clicking Play while a pinned source resolves put both handlers into
`playPinnedSource()`. The second supersedes the first, so the first returned
`false` — which the route read as "no usable pin" and answered by starting the
route source over the playback the second click had just begun.

`playPinnedSource` now reports `played` / `superseded` / `unavailable`, and
only `unavailable` falls through. This is the same distinction `runFailover`
already draws between "keep going" and "stop, something newer owns the screen";
the pinned path simply never had it.

The host crossed the 400-line cap again on the way, so the pinned-play errand
(wait out an in-flight discovery, re-check the session, start the source) moved
into the pin module beside `playPinned`, and the pin-toggle commit went with
it. 388 lines.

* fix(portals): restart honours the pin, and a switch replaces the player

Three from review, all in the pinned-playback seam.

A pinned copy watched through resolved to its stored seconds, so the button
read Play — the label uses the in-progress rule — and then started near the
end. Both now go through one `isResumablePosition`, so the label and the start
point cannot disagree.

Restart sat beside a Resume that honours a foreign pin, but called `playVod`
and started the ROUTE copy — silently switching the user's playlist. It now
restarts whatever the primary button acts on, falling back to the route source
only when there is no usable pin.

Switching sources left a running external player alone. With MPV or VLC and
instance reuse off the backend spawns a second detached process, so both
sources kept playing and Stop owned only the newer one.

Also merges master, and puts the five host specs on a shared harness — they
each carried the same 31-line TestBed, which is what pushed two of them over
the file-size cap as cases were added.

* fix(portals): find short Unicode titles, and stop two pickers racing

Five from review.

Greptile's P1: a short non-ASCII title was undiscoverable. SQLite's `LOWER()`
and GLOB classes are ASCII-only, so "он" never matched a stored "Он" and the
source simply never appeared. ASCII tokens keep the word-boundary GLOB; a
non-ASCII token falls back to a substring test against both the folded and the
as-typed form, which the normalized confirmation afterwards makes safe.

A probe now retries the ranged GET for 400 and 403, not just 405/501 — those
are what a WAF returns for an unexpected HEAD on a URL it serves happily over
GET, and calling that source dead also ranked it below worse ones.

Three races, all the same shape as ones fixed earlier in this branch:
- a pinned play awaiting its resume lookup did not notice a source picked
  across it, and finished last, replacing the user's choice;
- two overlapping switches both saw the same external session, both awaited
  its close, and both launched — two detached players again;
- the primary button showed the ROUTE copy's Resume while the pinned copy's
  row was still loading, so a click started somewhere else entirely.

Also puts the races spec on the shared host harness, which is what keeps it
inside the file-size rule now that it carries two more cases.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): close the player we launched, not the one we now own

Three follow-ups, two of them to last round's own fixes.

The external-session close was defeated in exactly the case it was written
for: `switchToSource` marks the DESTINATION active before handing playback
over, so by the time the service ran, the process still playing no longer
looked like ours and was left running beside its replacement. The service now
remembers the ids it launched with, independently of what is active.

The ASCII/Unicode branch was decided from the NORMALIZED token, which folds
diacritics — "Ça" arrived as "ca", looked like plain ASCII, and took the GLOB
path while the stored title still read "Ça". Decided from the raw token now.

Backup restore upserted archived pins but never removed the playlist's
existing ones, so a present-but-empty collection left stale preferences alive
— unlike the playback positions cleared beside it. An absent collection (an
older archive) still means "no opinion" and is left alone.

Four files crossed the size cap on the way; the split ones now share
`title-sources.spec-data.ts` and `playlist-backup.xtream-fixtures.ts`, and the
external-session ownership moved to its own module.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): absent is not empty, and every start claims the generation

Four more from review, three of them defects in last round's fixes.

The restore normalizer materialized `sourcePins: []` for archives that never
had the field, so "absent means no opinion" became "this archive says there
are no pins" and a merge cleared the user's. Absent now stays absent. My test
for that behaviour had passed for the wrong reason — it stubbed an empty pin
list, so the clear was skipped whether or not the guard worked.

`startGeneration` was claimed only by the switch path, so a plain Play, Resume
or Restart could be overtaken by a switch still awaiting its close. Every
start claims it now.

Raw and normalized tokens were paired by position, which breaks when
normalization drops a whole word: "FR: Ça" normalizes to "ca" and got handed
the raw token "FR:", sending it down the ASCII branch it cannot match from.
They are paired by normalized form instead.

And the ambiguous yearless alias (`title:dune:`) is no longer written or
retired beside a precise key — it may hold another remake's pre-enrichment
pin. It stays available when it is the only key there is, since refusing to
pin at all would be worse.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): a failed close must not leave the page claiming a dead source

When `closeSession()` rejected, `startResolvedPlayback` rejected with it and
never launched — while `switchToSource` had already marked the destination
active and reported the switch as successful. The page then named a source
that nothing was playing.

The close failure is logged and the replacement starts anyway. A close that
rejects usually means the session was already gone, and a possibly-lingering
process is the lesser of the two evils: the alternative is a UI that lies
about what is on screen.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(portals): split the external-playback handoff out of the service

Both the service and its spec crossed the 400-line cap with the close-failure
handling, so the handoff — deciding which process is ours, closing it, and
surviving a close that rejects — now lives in
`vod-details-external-session.ts` with its own spec file.

Two tests had to start awaiting: replacing a running external player is a
round-trip, and the handoff now yields once even when there is nothing to
close, so the new playback is mounted a microtask later than before.

* style(portals): format the extracted external-session module

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): fold diacritics in the title index

Cross-playlist matching compares normalized titles ("Amélie" -> "amelie")
against an index built from the raw title, and the trigram tokenizer does not
fold diacritics by default. Every accented title was therefore invisible to
the FTS path: two identical `Amélie` entries produced no candidates at all.
That is the broadest of the Unicode gaps review found, and it predates the
short-title work.

The tokenizer is fixed at CREATE time, so existing databases recreate and
rebuild the index once behind a migration marker. `remove_diacritics` needs
SQLite 3.45+, so support is probed on a temp table first: an older runtime
keeps its working index untouched and the migration is not recorded as done,
leaving a later version free to upgrade it.

Case folding for non-ASCII remains impossible in stock SQLite — "ОН" cannot
find "Он" by any available predicate — and is documented as the known limit
rather than patched around again.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): clear a playlist's pins by playlist, not by key list

Restoring over a playlist reused the keyed clear, which caps its input at
MAX_KEYS_PER_LOOKUP to bound an IN clause. A playlist with more than eight
pinned movies therefore kept the surplus while the call still reported
success, and the restore then wrote the archive's pins on top — leaving the
union of two states, which is neither the one the user asked for.

Clearing is now a dedicated delete-by-playlist operation with no key list to
truncate, and it refuses a blank playlist id rather than deleting everything.
A failure fails the entry instead of being swallowed: `listForPlaylist`
returns `[]` on error and `clear` returns `false`, so ignoring the result made
a failed read indistinguishable from "there was nothing to clear".

* fix(portals): keep a pin readable under every identity of its film

Two defects in the pin/position subsystem, both reported in review.

A pin was stored under the movie's most-trusted key alone and its other
keys retired. But a movie's identity GROWS: the film keyed `tmdb:438631`
today was `title:dune:2021` before enrichment, and reopening it cold asks
for the poorer key first. The preference was therefore ignored until
enrichment landed — and permanently when enrichment is off or never
answers. The decision is now written under every key in `write` (never
the yearless form, which every remake shares), one upsert per key plus
the leftover retirement in the same transaction. `setVodSourcePin` also
reports failure for a pin with no usable key instead of claiming a write
it never made.

The primary button asked whether the pinned copy's position had loaded
by testing presence rather than identity, so re-pinning left it wearing
the previous copy's timecode until the new lookup returned.

* docs(portals): record the key-addressing limit a pin write cannot close

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): fold non-ASCII case in the scan, and read years as tags

I was wrong about SQLite twice over, and both errors cost matches.

GLOB character classes are NOT ASCII-only. `patternCompare` reads them as
UTF-8 code points, so `'Он' GLOB '*[Оо][Нн]*'` is true — only `LOWER()` is
ASCII-only. The scan tier now folds the case in JavaScript, where Unicode
case mapping is real, and hands SQLite one class per character. A short
Cyrillic or Greek title stored in a different case is found instead of
being silently absent from the Sources chip. The builder returns `null`,
leaving the substring tests as the whole answer, for a token holding a
GLOB metacharacter (GLOB has no escape character) or a case mapping that
changes length. The FTS tier is untouched and still cannot fold — that
needs a stored normalized-title column.

The movie's own year came from `extractYear`, which reads a year from
anywhere in the title. That is right where a year is a search hint, wrong
where it is an identity: `2001: A Space Odyssey` was treated as a 2001
film, so every genuine 1968 copy failed the year gate and the movie had
no alternatives at all — and its pin key moved the moment enrichment
supplied the real year. `releaseTagYear` accepts only bracketed and
trailing forms; the repo's own TRAILING_YEAR_PATTERN already documented
this exact hazard.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): cover a letter spelled two ways in lower case

Greek Σ lowercases to σ, but a word-final sigma is written ς and is
equally a lowercase of it, so a class built only from the character in
hand knew one spelling of two. Each class now also carries the uppercase
form's own lowercase, which reaches the other one.

One-way on purpose: σ → Σ → σ never arrives at ς. Left so because ς is
only correct at the end of a word, which is exactly where the request's
last character sits — the pair that occurs in real titles is covered, and
closing the other direction needs a fold table.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): let an exact title keep a number that is part of its name

Both match tiers weighed the same year, taken from a trailing four-digit
tail or a bracketed tag. On the exact tier that rejects the very copy it
was meant to confirm: reaching it means both titles are the SAME string,
so the trailing digits belong to both, and comparing them against a
release year out of metadata makes "Blade Runner 2049" disagree with its
own stated 2017 — the genuine alternative disappears at the moment
enrichment lands, which is when the user has most reason to expect it.

The exact tier now reads the bracketed form only. Brackets are never part
of a name, so "Dune (1984)" is still rejected against 2021. The base tier
is unchanged: it has just stripped a trailing year, and that year is the
only thing separating "Dune 1984" from "Dune 2021".

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(database): verify the title index folds, rather than trust the marker

`createTables` declares content_title_fts with the plain trigram
tokenizer, and the diacritics migration declares it again with folding.
Two sources of truth for one tokenizer: if the table ever went missing
after the marker was written, `CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS` would restore
the unfolded form and the migration would skip it on the marker alone.

The upgrade now reads the live table's own DDL from sqlite_master and
rebuilds unless it really folds. A degraded index is invisible from the
outside — discovery just stops finding "Pokémon" for "pokemon" — so the
record has to be checked against the thing it describes.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): give the route's own row the facts the page already has

Two provenance defects found in review.

The current-source row is never resolved — nothing needs to fetch a URL
for the stream already playing — so it carried no provider metadata at
all, while every alternative got its facts from the resolve preceding
playback. `audioDiffersFactually` requires a fact on BOTH sides, so the
"dub may differ" warning was structurally unreachable on the commonest
switch there is: route to alternative. It could only ever fire between
two alternatives that had both been resolved. The row now carries what
`get_vod_info` already told the page, via a `providerVodMetadataOf`
mapper shared with the resolver so the two cannot describe one movie
differently.

Quality bucketed every width from 900 to 1199 as 576p, so a 960x540
stream — an ordinary 540p encode — was published as "576p" with `api`
provenance: a measurement its own pixels contradict, from the one field
that is supposed to mean the provider said so. That range holds two
standard formats, so it is matched now rather than bucketed, exactly as
the sub-HD sizes already were. A width matching no known format yields
no tag and a check chip, which is the honest answer.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): let the height veto a width-derived quality, and refresh route facts

Both of these are gaps I saw and chose not to close last round; a
reviewer was right that neither survives its own reasoning.

The shape check only ran below 1200, so the HD ranges kept publishing
wrong-but-confident labels: 1440x1080 is anamorphic 1080 and 1600x900 is
900p, and both were "720p" with `api` provenance — the provenance that
means the provider said so. Ranges are fine up there, the standard widths
really are far apart, but only once a known height can veto the answer.
Same rule the matched formats already used: a shorter frame is a
letterboxed master, a taller one is a different shape and gets no tag.

And the route row picked up provider facts only when discovery reran. On
a sparse panel `get_vod_info` can answer with no year and no TMDB id, so
the movie key is unchanged, nothing reruns, and the row keeps stating
nothing — leaving `audioDiffersFactually` one-sided and the dub warning
unreachable on exactly the switch it exists for. It now takes those facts
on without rediscovering, merged onto the existing row so a probe result
already sitting there survives.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): a codec is not a dub, and two waits needed a switch guard

Three findings from review.

The "dub may differ" warning compared audio CODECS. AAC and AC3 routinely
carry the same dub, and two AC3 tracks can carry different ones, so it
fired on every identical-language re-encode and stayed silent on the dub
changes it exists for — wrong in both directions, which is worse than
absent, because a warning people learn to ignore is not a warning. Worse,
the previous commit made it reach the common route-to-alternative switch
for the first time, so the false claim was about to get louder.

It now reads a new `audioLanguage`, taken from the track's language tag
and never from the codec. `audio` stays as a display fact. Few panels tag
a language, so the warning is usually silent — the same answer the rest
of this feature gives when it does not know.

`failover()` validated only the session across its wait for a discovery
in flight. The session moves when the FILM does, so a source the user
picked — or the route stream they restarted — during that wait was then
treated as the thing that failed and switched away from. It claims and
rechecks a switch generation, as the pinned path already did.

And the scan's ASCII branch could not find "Ça" from a folded "ca", while
the non-ASCII branch found "Ca" from "Ça" — so whether two playlists
could see each other depended on which one was open. Each ASCII letter
now carries its accented forms, derived by decomposition rather than
tabulated, so it cannot drift from the normalizer.

* test(portals): pin what the declared audio shape can and cannot say

The array shape the mock server and many panels send carries a codec and
no language, so the dub warning is silent for every source arriving that
way. Asserted rather than assumed, alongside the ffprobe shapes that do
carry one — otherwise a later reader sees an unused field and wires the
codec back into the warning.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(portals): a failed pin read must not export as "no pins"

Three findings, all in code from this session.

Backup called the lenient `listForPlaylist`, which turns a failed read
into `[]`. Since `e0ebbeaf` made restore treat `sourcePins` as
authoritative — clearing the playlist's pins before applying it — an
export whose read failed produced a file that looks complete and wipes
every pin on restore. Losing them is bad; losing them through the one
feature meant to protect them is worse. Backup now uses a strict listing
that throws, so the export fails instead.

The diacritic map stopped at U+024F, which is tidy and leaves Vietnamese
out: `ố` is U+1ED1, the normalizer folds it to `o`, and the scan filtered
those rows out before confirmation. Latin Extended Additional is included
now; the filter decides what belongs, so the range only has to be wide.

And two panels spelling one language differently (`eng` vs `en`, or
`en-US`) raised a dub warning between identical tracks. Tags are
canonicalized before comparison — 639-2 collapses to 639-1, both German
forms meet at `de`, regions drop, and `und` becomes nothing. Anything
that survives longer than three characters is not a language code, so the
comparison is declined rather than guessed.

* fix(portals): stop two backup paths from deleting pins they never read

Two data-loss paths, both P1, both mine.

A web export wrote `sourcePins: []`. Pins are Electron-only, so out
there we cannot read them — which is not the same as knowing there are
none, and restore treats the collection as authoritative. A backup made
in the browser was therefore an instruction to delete every pin the
moment it was imported on the desktop. There are three answers here, not
two: pins exist, there are none, and "could not look". The last omits
the field, exactly as an archive written before pins existed does. The
same rule now covers Electron with the bridge method missing.

I had written a test asserting the unreachable-store case resolves to an
empty list "because a backup made there is complete". That reasoning was
wrong: empty was true of what the runtime could see, never of the
playlist.

Restore also cleared the playlist's pins and then wrote the archive's one
by one. A write failing partway left the previous pins already gone and
only a prefix applied — a state belonging to neither, reported as a
failure the user could not undo. `DB_REPLACE_VOD_SOURCE_PINS` does the
clear and every write in one transaction, so the playlist ends up as the
archive describes it or exactly as it was.

* chore(lint): hold tests to their own max-lines ceiling

The flat 400-line cap treated a spec like a component. A spec is a flat
list of independent cases, so hitting the cap there produces arbitrary
`-2.spec.ts` splits and hides coverage instead of surfacing design debt —
65 of the 138 files over the limit were tests.

Production code keeps 400. Tests (`**/*.spec.ts`, `**/*.e2e.ts`, and
everything under `apps/*-e2e/**`) get 1200. Blank lines and comments no
longer count, so a docblock can't be the reason a file must be split.

Both limits now live in tools/eslint/max-lines-config.mjs, imported by
eslint.config.mjs and the baseline generator alike. The generator decides
who belongs on the list by running ESLint's own max-lines rule instead of
counting lines itself — a private reimplementation would disagree with the
rule the moment either side changed (a `//` inside a template literal is
enough) and yield a baseline that turns CI red while looking correct.

The baseline drops 126 -> 68 entries with nothing added, and six now-dead
`eslint-disable max-lines` directives are removed. A new eslint-tools test
asserts the committed baseline still matches what the generator produces,
so a stale entry or a forgotten regeneration fails CI.

* chore(lint): classify eslint-tools in the coverage policy

A project with a `test` target must be assigned a coverage tier, so
adding eslint-tools broke `coverage:policy:check` before the unit suite
even ran. Tier B alongside packaging and release-tools: these are Node
tests over lint tooling, and a coverage percentage across a generated
list would not mean anything.

CI runs Tier B/C through its own `--run-non-tier-a` step, so the
baseline-consistency test executes there rather than being skipped.

4grayandClaude Opus 5 99a85da6b0 feat(packaging): register IPTVnator as the .m3u/.m3u8 handler (#1301)
* feat(packaging): register IPTVnator as the .m3u/.m3u8 handler

Every runtime path for an OS-supplied playlist existed, but no packaging
metadata claimed the file types — so the OS never offered IPTVnator as a
handler and `open-file` could not fire from Finder.

`fileAssociations` declares one entry per extension. Electron Builder derives
all three platform registrations from it: macOS `CFBundleDocumentTypes` (the
prerequisite for `open-file`), the NSIS registry entries, and, on Linux, the
desktop entry's `MimeType` plus `/usr/share/mime/packages/iptvnator.xml` for
deb/rpm/pacman. Neither platform needs a dedicated icon — both fall back to the
app icon.

Declaring `MimeType` under `linux.desktop.entry` would not have worked:
Electron Builder assigns the association-derived value *after* spreading that
object, so an explicit key there is silently overwritten. The per-association
`mimeType` fields produce the same entry through the supported path.

Registering the types also exposes a gap in the delivery side. The generated
Linux `Exec` ends in `%U`, so file managers hand over a percent-encoded
`file://` URI rather than a path, which `createPlaylistOpenRequest` would have
resolved into a bogus relative path. It now decodes a `file://` candidate
before the extension check. Suppressing the `%U` instead would mean putting an
exec code in `linux.executableArgs`, which also passes it to the app as a real
argument.

Verified on macOS against a signed packaged bundle: Launch Services lists the
app as a `public.m3u-playlist` handler, and an LS-initiated open imports the
playlist both on a cold launch and against the already-running process.

* fix(playlist): open every playlist of a multi-file selection

`%U` is the plural exec code, so selecting several playlists in a Linux file
manager is one launch carrying one argument per file. Both argv paths called
`extractPlaylistOpenRequestFromArgv`, which returned at the first match, so
everything after the first playlist was silently discarded — a gap this PR
itself opened by making the desktop entry reachable in the first place.

The extractor is now plural and returns every match in argument order, and the
queue gained `enqueueAll` so a selection is pushed under a single flush: a
delivery that fails partway leaves the untouched remainder queued in arrival
order rather than interleaved.

Covered by unit tests over a mixed argv (percent-encoded `file://` URI, a
non-playlist argument, a second URI) and by a new Electron E2E that launches
with two playlist arguments and asserts both are imported.

4grayandClaude Opus 5 f80eb4d1b9 fix(playlist): open playlists handed over by the OS (#1299)
Opening an .m3u/.m3u8 file from the command line or a file association did
nothing. The renderer parsed `process.argv` and sent an `OPEN_FILE` IPC event
that had no `ipcMain` handler and no preload channel, so `sendIpcEvent` logged
it as an unknown type and dropped it.

The path now belongs to the main process, which is where the OS actually
delivers it:

- argv is parsed on first launch (skipping the executable and Chromium
  switches) and normalized to an absolute path;
- macOS gets an `open-file` listener registered before `whenReady`, since
  Launch Services never puts the path in argv;
- the single-instance guard forwards a second launch's argv and working
  directory instead of discarding them, so opening a playlist against a
  running app works too.

Requests are queued in the main process until the renderer subscribes to the
`OPEN_FILE` push and drains the queue, which closes the startup race. The
import itself reuses the existing file path, so persistence, playlist-scoped
EPG and the navigation to the new playlist behave exactly like a dialog
import; a failed open now surfaces a snackbar instead of silence.

4grayandClaude Opus 5 72f8cebd2e fix(e2e): reap data directories abandoned by earlier runs (#1296)
`removeDataDir` tolerates a locked directory rather than failing the run, but
then abandons it, and nothing collects it on our behalf: Windows never clears
%TEMP% on process exit, and the Unix equivalents only run on a schedule. Every
teardown that lost that race leaked a database and user-data tree on developer
machines and long-lived runners, invisibly, while CI stayed green.

Sweeps leftover `iptvnator-electron-e2e-*` directories once per run, before the
first one is created. Ownership is settled by pid rather than age: each run
records its pid and the sweep asks the OS via `process.kill(pid, 0)`.

- A live owner is kept, so a concurrent suite is never collected — this repo is
  routinely checked out into several worktrees at once. Age cannot answer this:
  writes land under `databases/` and `user-data/`, which never refreshes the
  root's mtime, so a run paused in a debugger looks arbitrarily old.
- A dead owner is collected immediately.
- An undeterminable owner (missing, empty or malformed marker) falls back to a
  24h cutoff. The marker is published via rename so a half-written file cannot
  bypass that guard.
- A live-looking owner past a week is collected anyway, since the OS recycles
  pids and a stranger inheriting one would otherwise pin the directory forever.

Covered by a 10-test spec running on Linux, macOS and Windows, since
`process.kill(pid, 0)` semantics are platform-specific. Each behaviour was
verified to fail against the preceding implementation.

4gray bfad82c26c fix(settings): stop settings silently reverting on restart (#1272)
Settings live in the renderer's IndexedDB, and two failure modes made them look
saved while nothing reached disk.

A second app instance sharing the same userData directory cannot take the
Chromium storage lock, so its renderer reads defaults and every write is
dropped. The app now holds a single-instance lock and focuses the running window
instead of starting a rival copy. The lock is requested after the userData
override so E2E runs with their own data dir keep independent locks, and after
Squirrel event handling. IPTVNATOR_ALLOW_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES=1 opts out for local
CDP debugging.

updateSettings() patches in-memory state before persisting and the submit path
had no rejection handler, so a failed write produced an unhandled rejection and
no user-visible feedback. SettingsStore now records which half of the round trip
failed, and the settings page surfaces it through a dismissible error snackbar;
the dialog stays open on failure so the save can be retried.

Two follow-ups from review, both wider than the report:

- a second launch now re-creates the main window when the lock owner has none
  left, so closing the last window on macOS no longer leaves a second launch
  quitting silently with nothing on screen
- App.onMainWindowCreated() re-runs window-owned bindings for every rebuilt
  window, so the downloads broadcaster stops holding a destroyed window. This
  also fixes the same bug on the pre-existing dock `activate` path.
