* feat(ui): add custom title bar window controls for Windows and Linux
Hide the native title bar on win32/linux (titleBarStyle: 'hidden', frame
untouched so native resize borders and snapping keep working) and render
minimize / maximize-restore / close buttons in the renderer, mirroring the
existing macOS traffic-light setup.
- New WINDOW:* IPC contract (minimize, toggle-maximize, close, get-state)
handled in window.events.ts, resolved from the sender WebContents;
close goes through win.close() so window-bounds persistence still runs.
- WINDOW:STATE_CHANGED pushed on maximize/unmaximize/fullscreen so the
maximize/restore glyph stays correct for OS-triggered changes; controls
hide while fullscreen.
- WindowControlsComponent mounts once in app-root as a manual popover so
it stays in the browser top layer above CDK overlays (dialogs,
multi-EPG) - same behavior as macOS traffic lights.
- Theme-aware via CSS vars (--app-on-surface, --app-hover-overlay);
Windows-red close hover. Drag regions get right padding through a
body-level frameless-platform class.
- Gated by RuntimeCapabilitiesService.usesCustomWindowControls; PWA and
macOS never mount the controls.
Includes unit specs for the component and IPC handlers, an Electron E2E
suite (window-controls.e2e.ts), and a window-chrome section in
docs/architecture/workspace-shell.md.

* feat(linux): upgrade Electron to 41 for frameless window decorations on Wayland
With the native title bar hidden, Linux windows lost the WM-drawn shadow
and rounded corners. Electron draws client-side decorations only on
native Wayland, and frameless-window CSD (GTK drop shadow + extended
resize boundaries) landed in Electron 41 - before that, frameless
windows render as plain rectangles.
- electron ^39.8.5 -> ^41.7.2 (Wayland auto-detected since 38.2; X11
sessions remain undecorated, matching other frameless Electron apps;
Windows keeps its DWM shadow and rounded corners).
- better-sqlite3 pinned to exactly 12.9.0: the last release shipping
prebuilt binaries for both Node 20 (ABI 115, Jest) and Electron 41
(ABI 145, runtime). 12.10.0 dropped the Node 20 prebuilds, forcing a
from-source build that fails without a C++ toolchain.
- pnpm override node-abi 3.85.0 -> 3.92.0 so electron-builder
install-app-deps can map Electron 41 to ABI 145.
Reviewed Electron 40/41 breaking changes: only the renderer clipboard
deprecation, which this app does not use.

* fix(e2e): address review feedback and window-managerless Linux CI
- Skip the three window-manager-dependent E2E assertions (maximize
toggle, main-process state sync, minimize) on Linux CI: GitHub's
ubuntu runners drive Electron under xvfb without a window manager, so
maximize/minimize state never materializes there. Windows CI and
local Linux/macOS runs keep the coverage.
- WINDOW:TOGGLE_MAXIMIZE now returns the requested state instead of
re-reading isMaximized() right after the call, which races on Linux
window managers where maximize()/unmaximize() complete
asynchronously; the WINDOW:STATE_CHANGED push stays authoritative.
- Skip attaching window-state push listeners on macOS, where the
custom controls never mount and the IPC traffic had no subscriber.

* fix(ui): gate custom window controls on the full bridge surface
Include getWindowState and onWindowStateChange in the
usesCustomWindowControls capability check — the controls rely on both
for initial state and for keeping the maximize/restore glyph in sync
with OS-triggered changes, so a partial bridge should not mount them.

Native addon (apps/electron-backend/native/src/embedded_mpv.mm)
- Extend SessionSnapshot with subtitleTracks, selectedSubtitleTrackId,
playbackSpeed, aspectOverride.
- Refactor track parsing into a shared updateTracksFromNode helper that
filters by mpv "type" so audio and subtitle tracks share the code path.
- Observe sid, speed, video-aspect-override; clear sub state on
MPV_EVENT_START_FILE.
- Export setSubtitleTrack (handles trackId === -1 as "no" to disable),
setSpeed (clamped to 0.25–4.0), setAspect (passthrough string for
video-aspect-override).
- Snapshot output now includes the new fields.
Service (embedded-mpv-native.service.ts) + IPC + preload
- Mirror methods on EmbeddedMpvNativeService with capability detection: each
method throws a descriptive error if the loaded addon doesn't expose the
underlying native function (i.e. user is running an older build).
- New IPC channels EMBEDDED_MPV_SET_SUBTITLE_TRACK, _SET_SPEED, _SET_ASPECT
registered in events file and exposed via preload.
- Extend EmbeddedMpvSupport with a capabilities probe so the renderer can
hide controls for features the current addon build doesn't ship.
Renderer (embedded-mpv-player.component.{ts,html})
- Three new popovers anchored above their buttons (subtitle / speed /
aspect), gated by capabilities() and (for subtitles) by track count.
- Subtitle popover includes an Off entry; speed/aspect use fixed presets.
- Error state now surfaces the same overlay as the stalled state, with a
Retry button that bumps the existing retryNonce signal — covers #8 from
the audit.
- All session-payload defaults (loading stub, error stub, refresh fallback,
dispose payload, native createSession default) updated for the new
required fields.
NOTE: Existing addon binaries do not expose the new methods. Until the
addon is rebuilt (pnpm run serve:backend:embedded-mpv or the release
build script), capabilities will report subtitles/playbackSpeed/
aspectOverride as false and the new buttons will simply not appear.

Entire-Checkpoint: f957cd9849e0
Channel-list rendering called EpgService.getCurrentProgramsForChannels(),
which forkJoined N getChannelPrograms() Observables — each firing its own
IPC round-trip and its own SQL query. For a 500-channel visible window on
first scroll, that was 500 IPC calls and 500 SELECTs hammering the EPG
table.
Add GET_CURRENT_PROGRAMS_BATCH IPC handler that takes the channel-id
array and runs a single SELECT with WHERE channel_id IN (...) AND
start <= now AND stop >= now. The renderer-side cache and TTL behavior
are preserved; only the network of IPC calls collapses to one. A
fallback path keeps the old per-channel behavior if the preload lacks
the new endpoint.
Per-channel display-name fallback (NOCASE id, then NOCASE display name)
is preserved from handleGetChannelPrograms so behavior matches the
existing single-channel handler.
Inspired by matracey/iptvnator@d25a7e8.

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

Add the ability to hide irrelevant or empty categories in Xtream playlists.
Users can now manage category visibility through a dialog accessible from
the sidebar header in both VOD/Series and Live TV views.
Features:
- New category management dialog with search filter and select/deselect all
- Visibility settings persisted to database per playlist
- Hidden categories are filtered from sidebar navigation
- New categories added during playlist refresh default to visible
- Database migration for existing installations
Files changed:
- Database: schema.ts, connection.ts (hidden column + migration)
- Backend: category.events.ts, main.preload.ts (IPC handlers)
- Frontend: new dialog component, store method, UI integration
- Translations: en.json

Refactor stalker-series-view template to guard fields with conditionals
so that only available metadata is displayed. Replace selectedItem() with
displayItem() to use the updated selection accessor. Add checks for
director, actors, year/release date, genre/genres_str, imdb and kinopoisk
ratings to avoid showing empty labels.
Enhance stalker-portal-import component by adding reactive form fields
for serial/device IDs and signatures, importing MatProgressSpinnerModule,
and wiring TranslateService and StalkerSessionService into the component.
Include a small loading-container style. These changes prepare the UI for
improved import UX and safer rendering of optional series metadata.
Add tables, indexes, FTS5 virtual table, and triggers to support EPG
(electronic program guide) data in the shared SQLite connection. The
changes introduce epg_channels and epg_programs tables, multiple
indexes for efficient lookups (by source, name, channel, start, and
time range), and an epg_programs_fts virtual table with triggers to
keep the full-text index synchronized with epg_programs.
Register EPG database event handlers in the Electron backend and
add an IPC handler for bulk-saving channels. The handler deletes
existing channels for a source and inserts new channels in chunks to
avoid large single inserts, returning the inserted count.
These changes enable storing, querying, and full-text searching EPG
data and prepare backend IPC endpoints for importing program guide
data.
