4grayandClaude Fable 5.1 49fdd40c9d Merge origin/master into the programme guide branch
Adopts the compact icon-only timeline toolbar (#1557): the Guide button is
now an icon-only `epg-timeline__iconbtn` with its label in the tooltip and
aria-label, so the unused EPG.TIMELINE.GUIDE key is dropped from all locales.

4grayandClaude Fable 5.1 8d73286d93 fix(m3u): let the guide own the keyboard and gate its entry points
While the programme guide is open the docked player carries
`data-player-shortcuts-suspended`, which `ControlsShortcuts` now honours
alongside `[inert]` — the arrows moved the player's volume instead of the
guide's row focus. The external-player strip loses its Collapse toggle
(nothing to reveal, no preference to write), the header action and its
palette command report `disabled` when the guide cannot open, the docked
strip derives its programme from the active channel's own schedule instead
of the retained NgRx value, switching playlists closes the guide, and the
collapsed strip can reach 48 px on phones.

4grayandClaude Fable 5.1 0dcfba7045 fix(live-tv): keep a hidden channel list discoverable and scoped per surface (#1555)
* fix(live-tv): keep a hidden channel list discoverable and scoped per surface

The second report in #1458 ("all channels disappear after clearing the
playback history, reset does not bring them back") was not data loss: the
history write never touches playlist items. The reporter's screenshot shows
a collapsed channel rail, a state persisted under one localStorage key
shared by the M3U player, the Xtream/Stalker live layouts and the
favorites/recent live tab. It survived restart, "Remove all playlists" and
re-import, and the only way back was a 32px chevron or Ctrl/Cmd+B.

- LiveLayoutSidebarStateService keeps the state per surface (m3u / portal /
  collection) under live-sidebar-state:<surface>; the M3U player now goes
  through the service instead of its own signal. The legacy shared key is
  forgotten on startup and never read, so the update itself restores the
  list for everyone who got stuck.
- The workspace header renders a view_sidebar toggle on every route that
  renders its own rail (M3U all/groups, Xtream live, Stalker itv/radio), so
  the control exists in both states instead of disappearing with the rail.
  Collection pages keep their own toggle beside the content switch.
- While the rail is collapsed and nothing plays, every live host shows
  app-channel-list-hidden-state (title, shortcut hint, full-size "Show
  channels list" button) instead of asking to pick from a list that is not
  on screen. app-portal-empty-state gained optional hint/action inputs.
- New LAYOUT.CHANNELS_LIST_HIDDEN(_HINT) strings in en plus 18 locales.

Tests: service, empty-state, hidden-state and header component specs, a
separate video-player-sidebar spec (the main M3U spec sits at the test
line budget), and an Electron E2E covering history clearing, restore via
button/header/shortcut across restart and re-import, per-surface scoping
against an Xtream portal, and legacy-key cleanup.

* test(live-tv): mirror the EPG offset setting in the sidebar spec mock

Master's player reads `resolvedEpgOffsetMinutes` from the settings store; the
new sidebar spec was cloned from the movie-gate harness before that field
landed, so its playing-channel case threw inside the EPG effect.

* test(web-e2e): scope the Stalker radio rail toggles to the rail

The workspace header now carries a second "Hide/Show channels list" toggle,
so the role+name locators matched more than one button and tripped
Playwright's strict mode. Target the rail's own chevron and the floating
restore button, and assert the header toggle mirrors the state.

* fix(live-tv): honour Cmd/Ctrl+B on collection pages and hide the header rail toggle on phones

Codex review follow-ups on #1555:

- The hidden-list state advertises Cmd/Ctrl+B, but the favorites/recent
  collection page had no handler; only the routed M3U/Xtream/Stalker live
  layouts did. The page now toggles the collection surface while its live
  tab is on screen, with the same typing/inert guards as the other hosts.
- At the phone breakpoint the header already holds the drawer toggle,
  switcher, search and Add; the live rail is a bottom drawer with its own
  toggle there, so the header rail toggle is hidden below 640px.

* fix(live-tv): migrate the live navigation helpers to the per-surface sidebar API

master (#1554) added `XtreamLiveChannelNavigationService` and
`stalker-live-navigation.ts`, which expand the rail through
`sidebar.setState('expanded')` on the pre-split signature. Point them at the
`portal` surface and update their specs; drop the now-unused hidden-state
stub from the Xtream layout spec, which master pushed to the max-lines
budget.

4grayandClaude Fable 5.1 ef2418a2c5 feat(epg): compact timeline toolbar with icon-only Now and cycling zoom (#1557)
* feat(epg): compact timeline toolbar with icon-only Now and cycling zoom

Replace the 96px zoom range slider with a single icon button that cycles
day overview → by hour → detailed, make the Now button icon-only (label in
tooltip + aria-label), and add Ctrl/⌘ + wheel zoom around the cursor on the
ribbon (preventDefault keeps Chromium from page-zooming the same gesture).
Zoom math moves into TimelineZoomController so the component stays under
the max-lines limit. The channel/programme heading no longer carries a 60%
width cap and takes the space the controls free up.

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

* fix(epg): coalesce wheel-zoom anchoring and make the e2e zoom reset deterministic

- TimelineZoomController keeps a logical pending scrollLeft across a burst
  of wheel/pinch events and applies it in one animation frame, so every
  event anchors on the same minute instead of the stale DOM position
- the e2e settles on the detail preset from whichever band the wheel
  landed in (contrast checks need the block's time line, hidden at
  narrower tiers)
- zoom tooltip advertises ⌘/Ctrl per the repo's shortcut convention

4grayandClaude Fable 5.1 2f1ffe59f9 fix(embedded-mpv): disable the youtube-dl hook in the frame-copy helper (#1526)
The native-view addons and the external MPV launch path already run with
`ytdl=no`, but the frame-copy helper left mpv's default, so a refused HTTP
open fell through to ytdl_hook and yt-dlp before failing. That delayed the
`error` transition the auto-reconnect policy waits for and could leave the
session error reading "youtube-dl failed: unexpected error occurred"
instead of the load error.

Set `ytdl=no` in the helper's built-in block, before the stdin
`mpv-options` loop, so a user `ytdl=yes` session option still overrides
it. Document the helper's built-in block next to the other session-option
transports and add a release note.

Verified by rebuilding the helper against Homebrew libmpv and driving the
binary by hand against a connection-refused URL: the built-in default logs
only the ffmpeg/stream errors, while a `ytdl=yes` stdin line spawns yt-dlp.

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.

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

* 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.

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

* 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 Opus 4.8 fe3c86394c fix(playback): keep Video.js vendor-chrome shortcuts after a mouse click on a control (#1523)
Follow-up to #1516 for the vendor-chrome path (shared controls opted out). With
Video.js's own controls, Chromium leaves a clicked control-bar button focused,
and a focused Video.js component captures the keyboard entirely, so after
clicking fullscreen Space left fullscreen instead of pausing and the seek,
volume and mute keys did nothing until the user clicked the video. ArtPlayer
and the native HTML5 controls were verified unaffected.

The legacy Video.js chrome now releases the focus a pointer interaction leaves
on a control (vjs-pointer-focus-release.ts). The release is scoped to the
.vjs-control-bar and pointer-attributed, and runs on both focusin (focus
landing on a control, e.g. a menu handing focus to its button) and click (a
control clicked while already focused, which fires no focusin); keyboard Tab
focus and modal-dialog focus traps are preserved. The eligibility helper is
shared with ControlsSurface via pointer-focus-release.ts.

ZoultandClaude Fable 5.1 5a11b82eaf feat(embedded-mpv): configurable extra libmpv options and network auto-reconnect (#1515)
Extra libmpv options (Settings > Playback) reach every embedded engine off the command line (createSession array on Windows/macOS, a 0600 --include file on Linux native-view, a stdin preamble for the frame-copy helper); the keys the embed depends on are refused, and keys libmpv rejects are reported once per session. Dropped streams reload automatically (error, or ended on live) with 2 s -> 30 s backoff, six attempts per outage and a 30 s stability reset, only for a load that already played; engine failures stay terminal, a running recording is filed as interrupted and restarted after the reload, and an external subtitle file is re-added. Settings.embeddedMpvAutoReconnect (default on) opts out; the player shows 'Reconnecting... attempt N of M'.

4grayandClaude Fable 5.1 6cfdaf5900 feat(website): add the Stalker portal setup guide with mock-backed screenshots
Publish "How to Connect a Stalker or Ministra Portal to IPTVnator": the
portal URL shapes discovery accepts, MAC normalization, the optional
serial/device-ID/signature fields and the pinning rules behind the
"generate device IDs" toggle, what endpoint discovery does on Add, the
sections a portal source gets, Account info, and a troubleshooting list
built from the app's own refusal messages, plus a seven-question FAQ.
The guide is cross-linked from the download pages and llms.txt.

Guide screenshots come from the capture script. Shots that walk into a
Stalker portal start the stalker-mock-server and seed its marketing-demo
portal for that run only, so release shots never gain a third source
card. The frame guard allowlists exactly that scenario's MAC and keeps
rejecting every other MAC-shaped string.

To keep the live-TV frame free of third-party images, the fictional live
channel list and the channel-logo SVG renderer move into
@iptvnator/shared/marketing-fixtures; both mocks now serve
/assets/marketing/logo/<slug>.svg, the Stalker marketing-demo scenario
builds its ITV categories, channels and schedule from those fixtures
instead of faker names with picsum logos, and the mock resolves asset
URLs on get_all_channels too, which is the response the app renders
the channel list from.

4grayandClaude Fable 5.1 2fc1bd5601 fix(stalker): keep live playback when switching the ITV/radio category (#1517)
Switching the Live TV or radio category in the shell context panel tore
down the Stalker player: `onStalkerCategoryClicked` cleared the selected
item for every section, and the live layout gates its player on
`selectedItem`. Xtream live (#936) and M3U groups already keep the channel
playing across a category/group switch.

- Context panel: return before `clearSelectedItem()` for `itv`/`radio`;
  VOD/series clicks still drop the open detail before navigating.
- Live layout: the category-change reset effect no longer wipes the
  playing channel's short-EPG fallback or cancels a fallback load in
  flight; only a section change (itv <-> radio) does that now.
- Regression coverage in the context panel spec, the live layout spec and
  a new web E2E scenario; docs and a `.changes/` note added.

4grayandClaude Fable 5.1 308ed9cb41 fix(playback): keep playback shortcuts after a mouse click on a bar button (#1516)
Chromium focuses a clicked <button>, and a focused control captures the
keyboard: Space and Enter activate it again, and ControlsShortcuts yields
to any interactive element in the key's path. After a click on the
fullscreen button, Space left fullscreen instead of pausing and the seek,
volume and mute keys did nothing until a click on the video took focus
away. Follow-up to #1512, which stopped that focus from pinning the bar
but left it on the button.

A completed pointer click now releases the focus it left on the control
(onBarClick -> ControlsSurface.releasePointerFocus). The click is
attributed by its pointerType (empty for Enter/Space activation and
element.click()), with the legacy MouseEvent fallback answered once per
recorded press, so keyboard activation keeps focus where Tab put it.
Only buttons and range sliders are released. Chromium keeps its
sequential-focus starting point at the blurred control, so a later Tab
continues from it. The release dispatches a focusout while the pointer
still rests on the control, so the volume anchor ignores it instead of
closing the popover under the hovering mouse.

method with a labeled hand-out, and the Xtream Live TV view. Dialog
helpers and fixture identities move into shared modules so the driver
and the navigation actions cannot import each other cyclically.

4grayandClaude Fable 5.1 81ce8e8c90 feat(release): scaffold the blog post in its published shape
`release:notes:blog` used to emit the notes as a type-grouped inventory with
area prefixes and the highlight sections buried after the feature list; the
v0.23 post shipped in exactly that form and had to be restructured after
publication. The scaffold now starts from the shape the posts end up in:
a "What changed" table with one row per highlight, one `##` section per
highlight ahead of everything else, breaking changes on their own, the
remaining features folded into reader-facing themed sections instead of
conventional-commit scopes, Performance, every remaining fix under a Spoiler
grouped by theme, and the before-updating alert, Thanks and Download cards
(including the compare link to the previous version). Only the components a
post uses are imported.

The blog renderer moves to `release-notes-blog.mjs`; `release-notes-render.mjs`
keeps the GitHub/CHANGELOG renderers and exports the shared text helpers.
Editorial work stays editorial and is marked with TODOs: which fixes deserve
promotion out of the spoiler, one-line bullets, lead-ins, intro and thanks.

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 4f723b63a0 fix(playback): auto-hide shared controls after a mouse click on a bar button (#1512)
Chromium focuses a clicked <button>, so the shared controls bar treated every
mouse click on a control (fullscreen, mute, ...) as keyboard navigation and
pinned itself open until a click on the viewport took focus away — a click
that also paused playback. Most visible on Embedded MPV frame-copy after
entering fullscreen; reproduces on HTML5, Video.js and ArtPlayer too.

Only keyboard-originated focus pins the bar now: pointer-attributed focus
reveals without a pin, the press record is discarded on the first bar focus
event or any keydown, a pointerdown inside the bar releases a keyboard pin,
and a keydown bubbling out of a bar control re-pins it.

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.

* 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.

4grayandClaude Fable 5.1 5e51c1ea5d fix(playback): route non-HLS containers to the native source path (#1510)
The HTML5 player chose its engine by exclusion: anything that was not
mpd/ts/mp4 went to hls.js, so .mkv (the default Xtream series/VOD
container), .webm, .avi, .mov and .m4v were fed to hls.js as manifests.
hls.js raised a manifest error and the player showed the network/provider
diagnostic over media Chromium plays natively.

Add resolvePlaybackUrlSourceKind() to @iptvnator/playback/util as the one
URL-to-engine rule (mpd -> dash, m3u8/m3u -> hls, ts/m2ts/extension-less
-> mpegts, everything else -> native) and read it from both the HTML5
player and ArtPlayer's getArtPlayerVideoType(), so the two engines agree.
ArtPlayer serves every native container through a single
ART_PLAYER_NATIVE_SOURCE_TYPE custom type, keeping the source session the
owner of teardown and controls binding. The HTML5 native <source> carries
the video/mp4 hint only for MP4-family files: a hint the browser's
canPlayType() rejects makes it skip the source, and Chromium demuxes
containers it does not advertise there.

4grayandClaude Fable 5.1 0a2f6121f8 fix(playback): keep fullscreen across episode, channel and source switches (#1509)
WebPlayerViewComponent remounts the engine component for every playback
application, and the DOM Fullscreen API exits the moment its element leaves
the document. The fullscreen element was the engine shell, so every next-
episode click, autoplay hand-off, channel zap and alternative-source switch
dropped the viewer back to the page.

app-player-controls gains a `fullscreenTarget` input; HTML5, Video.js,
ArtPlayer and Embedded MPV forward it, and WebPlayerViewComponent passes its
own host element, which spans all applications of one mount. Keeping
fullscreen exposed a latent bug: the Electron header handoff set plain
fields under OnPush hosts and was only rendered thanks to the fullscreen
exit's stage resize; `channel`/`vjsOptions` are signals now.

Covered by unit regressions (fullscreen target, WebPlayerView remount, OnPush
handoff), a web-e2e run through a manual and an automatic episode switch, and
a manual Electron check. Docs and release note updated.

Closes #1498

4grayandClaude Fable 5 0adf562177 fix(release): align public Snap verifier with the shipped snap layout
The publish-snap verifier had never run against a real release and
encoded three stale expectations that the tag build's own validators do
not share:

- it required the app under usr/lib/iptvnator inside the snap, while
  Electron Builder's snap target ships the app at the snap root
  (/iptvnator.bin, /resources/**) — the layout the packaged smoke tests
  exercise;
- it validated the source archive's runtime manifest with the raw
  source-build validator, but the archive carries the STAGED manifest
  (origin "vendored-lgpl" + sourceBuildOrigin) written by
  stage-runtime.mjs; the staged envelope is now checked explicitly and
  the remaining fields still go through the shared validator via an
  origin projection;
- it deep-equaled the snap's bundled sourceRuntime against the archive
  manifest, but the snap bundles the builder view (no staging
  envelope); the binding now projects the envelope away first.

Verified end-to-end in a Linux container against the real v0.23.0
release assets: release-snap-assets.cjs verify now passes and emits the
sealed snapshot receipt. Regression tests cover the legacy usr/lib
layout and staged-envelope mismatches.
