* fix(i18n): follow runtime language switches in stored and memoized labels

A label translated once and kept kept its language after Settings ->
Language until the data reloaded or the app restarted. The Stalker store
baked `translate.instant('PORTALS.ALL_CATEGORIES' | 'PORTALS.ALL_RADIO')`
into its category list, so the every-item genre stayed English in the
rail, the live header, the fullscreen panel title, the catalog title and
the search scope.

Stalker: the every-item genre now carries `labelKey` and an empty
`category_name`; the category views render the key through the translate
pipe. `getSelectedCategoryName` becomes `getSelectedCategoryLabel`
({ name, labelKey }) and every text consumer goes through
`stalkerCategoryLabelText()` inside a computed that reads a language
signal, so no consumer can show the empty name or a stale translation.

Same class elsewhere (computed or stored `instant` text without a language
signal): the Xtream import overlay title and progress (shell-provided),
the Settings About version note (stored in a signal on the page where the
language changes), the remove-all-playlists progress, the context panel's
status/error text and category search, and the movie/series heroes
(`createVodDetailsHeroState`, `createSeriesHeroState`, the Xtream movie
presenter), cast & crew "Director", the M3U sidebar count, the M3U movie
hero and the collection panel title. These read
`toSignal(onLangChange.pipe(startWith(null)))` and also recover when the
translation file lands after the first render.

Documents the rule in the UI guidelines and the Stalker store contract.

* docs(stalker): record getSelectedCategoryLabel in the store API baseline

getSelectedCategoryName is gone without an alias: a name-only selector is
empty for the every-item genre, whose label is a translation key.

* fix(i18n): one translation tick that also follows late dictionaries

Greptile asked for coverage of a dictionary that lands after the first
render. That exposed a gap: every hand-written tick listened to
`onLangChange` only, but a start-up without a saved language never calls
`use()` - the default dictionary landing fires `onDefaultLangChange` alone,
so computeds that ran before it kept raw keys. Dictionary updates
(`onTranslationChange`) were missed the same way.

`injectTranslationTick()` in `@iptvnator/pipes` merges the three events the
translate pipe re-renders on (the embedded MPV player already did). All 37
ticks use it now, including the hero factories' `language` dependency. New
specs cover the delayed default-language load, a late `use()` dictionary
and a dictionary update; the hero specs add the start-up case.

* fix(i18n): series view reads the shared translation tick

#1871 added an onLangChange-only tick for the synthetic episode titles; a
start-up dictionary that lands without use() would leave raw keys.

* refactor(i18n): move injectTranslationTick to @iptvnator/services

The tick injects TranslateService and subscribes, so it is injectable
runtime state; nx-workspace-boundaries.md reserves type:util for pure
helpers and contracts. @iptvnator/services is the shared type:data-access
project every consumer domain may depend on, and it imports none of them.

4grayandClaude Opus 5.5 17a2b1b3b0 fix(ui): visible keyboard focus everywhere via a global focus-visible fallback (#1866)
* fix(ui): visible keyboard focus everywhere via a global focus-visible fallback

The global stylesheet removed the outline from every input, button,
textarea and `:focus`, so Tab users saw no focus on about 110 raw buttons:
detail actions, season tabs, chips, title results, list rows.

- Remove the outline only under `:focus:not(:focus-visible)` and draw a
  fallback ring on every other `:focus-visible` element. Both rules sit
  in `:where()`, so any component that styles its own focus still wins.
- One recipe: `focus-ring-declarations` moves to
  `libs/ui/styles/_focus-ring.scss` and reads `--app-focus-ring`, declared
  per theme (light #1d63e0, dark #8cbaff) with at least 3:1 on every app
  surface and selection tint; `m3-theme.spec.ts` measures it. The card
  ring, the detail actions, the portal sidebar and both context panels
  use the mixin (the panels' selection-blue ring fell to 2.97:1 on the
  active item).
- Material Tab stops (buttons, switches, button toggles, checkboxes) take
  the ring over their 12% focus state layer; menu items and options keep
  Material's highlight.
- Surfaces over video (player controls, vendor chrome, fullscreen panels,
  Up Next rail) point the ring at the player's text colour.
- The selected season tab drew its border with `outline`, which outranks
  the fallback; it is a spread shadow now.
- Guard: `pnpm run styles:focus-visible:validate` (CI) rejects a global
  `outline: none` on an unscoped selector and a missing fallback.
- Electron E2E `keyboard-focus-ring.e2e.ts` tabs through the detail
  actions and season tabs, a catalog grid with its refinement chips, the
  Sources list and Settings in both themes: one ring per stop, 3:1 where
  measurable, none after a click.

* fix(ui): keep the player ring in the fullscreen panel; tighten the focus guard and E2E

Local review round 1 (Codex P2, Greptile 3×P2):

- The fullscreen channel panel carries `dark-theme`, whose context declares
  the theme ring again, so its own controls ringed in #8cbaff. Point the
  token back at the player's text colour on `.fullscreen-channel-panel
  .dark-theme`; the web series-playback E2E checks the close button's ring.
- The guard took a container-scoped rule (`.panel :focus-visible`), a mixin
  body or a media query as the global fallback. The fallback is now the
  whole selector, outside any at-rule.
- The keyboard-focus E2E now fails a ring that an `overflow: hidden`
  ancestor (up to the scroll container) cuts.

* fix(ui): show focus where a component removes its outline; catch invisible rings in the guard

GitHub review round on #1866 (Codex P2, Greptile P2):

- A component rule that sets `outline: none` outranks the zero-specificity
  fallback. Re-audited every one: two hid a Tab stop with nothing else to
  show. The EPG list row (`role="button"`) now draws an inset ring, and the
  command palette underlines its search row while the field has focus.
  The others already show focus on the field's wrapper, on another
  element, or as a highlight inside an arrow-key composite (the "…" menu,
  the guide's search listbox); the guidelines now state the rule.
- The guard read only a bare zero or `none` as a removal. It now reads a
  zero width, a `none`/`hidden` style or a transparent colour anywhere in
  the shorthand or longhands, so `outline: 0 solid transparent` is
  reported and `outline: 2px solid transparent` is no fallback.
- The keyboard-focus E2E walks the live EPG list and the command palette
  too, and reads an inset or offset shadow line as a ring.

* fix(player): keep --pc-text a literal palette colour

Master's palette spec (#1854) reads `--pc-text` from the controls host as
a literal; this branch had made it `#{palette.$text}`, failing "sets the
timeline label on the dense glass" on the merge ref. The host declares the
literal again, and a spec keeps the palette's `$text` (the focus ring
token for surfaces beside the host) equal to it.

* build(epg): declare the ui-styles dependency of the list row's focus ring

The EPG list row now `@use`s `libs/ui/styles/_focus-ring.scss`; Nx cannot
infer a Sass import, so `ui-epg` declares `ui-styles` like the other
consumers of the shared partials.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(tooling): a styleless outline shorthand hides focus too

`outline: 2px` or `outline: red` resets the style to `none`, yet the guard
counted either as a visible fallback. A shorthand without a drawn style
(or a `var()` that may carry one) now counts as removing the outline, as
do `initial` and `unset`.

4grayandClaude Opus 5.5 e74a03b8e0 feat(playback): report Embedded MPV file chapters on the timeline (re-land #1771) (#1874)
Re-lands #1771, which was merged into the branch of #1768 after #1768
itself had been squash-merged and so never reached master:

- Native: the macOS addon, the Windows libmpv addon and the frame-copy
  helper observe mpv `chapter-list`; snapshots carry
  `chapters: [{ timeSeconds, title? }]`, cleared on every START_FILE.
- Main: `normalizeEmbeddedMpvChapters` validates the field into
  `EmbeddedMpvSession.chapters` (older binaries give []).
- Renderer: `buildChapterTimelineSegments` maps chapters to timeline
  segments; host catch-up segments keep precedence, and a closing-credits
  chapter times the Up next card.

Chapters flow through the same timelineSegments path as catch-up
programmes, so they get #1854's keyboard and screen-reader naming,
bounded label and 3:1 separators; specs and the frame-copy E2E now
assert the chapter name reaches the slider's aria-valuetext. The packaged
Linux smoke registers each media server for cleanup as it starts.

4grayandClaude Opus 5.5 2b400cb81d fix(i18n): translate the remaining hard-coded labels (#1871)
* fix(i18n): translate hard-coded labels, snackbars and missing keys

Catalog screens, snackbars and external player messages showed English
in every locale, and seven keys used in code were missing from en.json,
so ngx-translate rendered them raw.

- Catalog: "All items", item and channel counts, channel sort menus and
  tooltips, unnamed-category and empty-category labels, LIVE/PAUSED
  badges and the Xtream global search summary are translated. The Xtream
  and Stalker stores no longer bake an English name into the every-item
  sentinel; the facades return a null title and the view translates it.
- Snackbars: Xtream/Stalker request failures, the 413 upload error,
  backup export/import results and the category visibility failure use
  keys; every "Close" action uses CLOSE.
- External player: the main process sends an error code instead of an
  English sentence (player-error event, session errorCode, and a tag in
  rejected launch errors); the renderer, dock and VOD primary button
  translate it. The external player info dialog is translated.
- Adds the seven missing keys and 43 new ones, translated in all 18
  locales; seven legitimately identical values are baselined.
- tools/i18n/check-usage.mjs fails on keys used in code but missing from
  en.json; it runs in i18n:check (and so in CI through i18n:validate).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(i18n): translate catalog counts in the template and skip inline template comments

- The category subtitle hands a key to the translate pipe instead of
  caching translate.instant(), so a cold start re-renders it once the
  language file loads.
- The Xtream live root count uses the singular/plural item keys, so one
  result no longer reads "1 channels".
- check-usage.mjs strips HTML comments inside inline templates of
  TypeScript files, so a commented-out key no longer fails the check.

* fix(i18n): check keys in parenthesised translate pipe operands

`(expanded() ? 'SHOW_LESS' : 'SHOW_MORE') | translate` yields keys that
neither precede the pipe directly nor contain a dot, so the usage check
missed them. It now reads the ternary and fallback branches of a
parenthesised operand; a literal compared in the condition is not read
as a key.

* test(e2e): expect the translated external player failure in the dock

A launch failure without an error code now shows the translated generic
status in the playback dock, with the raw main-process detail as its
tooltip. The ClearKey DASH flow asserted the raw English text.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(playback): keep the IPC error tag out of the stored session detail

A tagged launch failure reached ExternalPlayerSession.error unchanged, so
the dock tooltip showed "[iptvnator:external-player:start-failed]". The
registry now strips the tag when it stores the detail; the rejected IPC
error keeps it for the renderer to read the code.

* test(web): expect translated portal request failure toasts

#1861's new resolved-failure specs asserted the English toast text; the
toasts now go through PORTALS.REQUEST_ERRORS keys, so the specs check
the key and its message/status params.

* fix(i18n): read only returned branches of a grouped translate operand

A literal at the start of a condition, as in
`('ERROR' === status() ? 'CLOSE' : 'CLOSE') | translate`, was taken for
a translation key, so a valid template could fail the usage check. A
grouped literal now counts only when it ends its operand (end of group,
`:`, `||` or `??`).

* fix(i18n): translate the remaining hard-coded labels

Follow-up to the UI-26 pass. The remaining English UI literals now come
from translation keys, translated in all 18 locales:

- Windows/Linux window controls, playlist switcher title and actions
  menu, the portal status tooltip, dashboard carousel roles and rail
  scroll buttons, the search placeholder, the card remove tooltip, the
  EPG offset unit, the REC chip, the Stalker EPG source label and the
  export file type.
- Embedded MPV failures raised in the renderer and the release-notes
  dialog without a bridge. Settings never showed its English reasons,
  so they are dropped.
- Unnamed Stalker episodes: data access leaves the title empty and the
  series view labels it after the TMDB overlay. Synthetic season names
  stay, because they key persisted episode progress.
- The phone remote-control page, which follows the first browser
  language with a translation and sets <html lang>.

Removes the dead getStatusMessage(), the unused favorites layout and the
translateWithFallback() helpers whose keys now exist.

* fix(remote-control): keep the remote build off shared-interfaces

The language resolver imported the Language enum, which made
remote-control-web depend on shared-interfaces. Its build-performance
chain then hit Nx's recursive-invocation guard through the existing
shared-interfaces/shared-logging build loop, failing the Electron E2E
and performance journey builds. The resolver now keeps its own list of
translation codes, and a spec checks it against the locale files the page
loads.

Also drops the deleted favorites layout from the zoneless checklist,
whose guard spec requires ticked entries to exist.

* perf(journeys): raise the launch DOM mutation baseline for translated attributes

Launch now sets 569 DOM mutations before the first dashboard card instead
of 557 (identical in all three CI iterations). The extra twelve come from
attributes this PR moved from static English to translated bindings on
the launch path: the window-control labels and tooltips on Linux, the
hero carousel and slide roles, and the rail scroll-button labels. A
translated attribute is a binding set after the element is attached, so
each costs a mutation. Accepted as a deliberate trade-off; it needs the
perf-baseline-increase label.

4grayandClaude Fable 5.1 50d45bc7c0 feat(details): redesigned episode list, section rhythm and hero fade (#1859)
* fix(details): continue the hero artwork under the first section

The vertical scrim stopped at the hero's bottom edge, so a bright
backdrop ended in a visible band above the Episodes heading. The hero
now grows by a 140px tail that the shell pulls the sections up over,
and the scrim resolves to the exact page surface behind the heading.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(details): one section header and a 56px rhythm below the hero

Episodes, Cast & crew and Similar now share app-detail-section-header:
an 18px/600 title, a muted tabular counter and lead/end slots. The
Episodes counter adds the watched count ("8 episodes · 3 watched"),
and sections sit 56px apart, with 56px after the last one.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(details): flat episode rows with a reserved action slot

Each episode is now one app-episode-item, a list row or a grid card:
- a number column, a 168px thumbnail with a watched check, a progress
  bar only for started episodes and a play overlay
- title with "46 min · 12 Jan" (time left once started) and a plot
  clamped to two lines at 74ch
- mark watched, download and a "…" menu in a 112px slot that is always
  reserved and shows on hover or keyboard focus, so nothing shifts
- the whole item is one stretched button: Tab focuses it, Enter plays
- the playing or last unfinished episode is highlighted

The "…" menu holds Episode details and, for a started episode, Play
from beginning, which Xtream and Stalker now start at 0. TMDB's episode
runtime fills the meta line when the provider sends none. The list is
the default view for anyone who has not chosen one.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(details): segmented list/grid switch and a 30px season pill

The view toggle becomes a 2px-padded segmented track with 30×26
segments and a neutral checked segment; the season pills and the season
dropdown share the section header's 30px pill.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(details): no season synopsis that repeats the series description

Providers often send the series plot, or its first sentences, as every
season's description, so the same text showed twice a few hundred
pixels apart. The season strip now drops a synopsis that equals the
hero's description, or is cut short from it, and clamps its own to two
lines at 72ch.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(details): draw the episode thumbnail hairline as a border

An inset shadow over the artwork is invisible to the surface-contrast
checks and to forced-colors mode; a 1px border is what both read.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test(e2e): follow the list-first, flat episode items

The list is now the default view, rows and cards share .episode-item
classes, and grid titles no longer carry the "N." prefix. The surface
checks measure the thumbnail hairline instead of a row border, assert
that hovering a row does not move its title, and capture list, grid and
hover screenshots.

* docs(ui): episode list, section rhythm and hero tail contracts

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(dashboard): continue the hero artwork under the first rail

The dashboard hero's fade ended at its edge, so the artwork stopped
just above the Continue Watching heading. Like the details hero, it now
grows by a 160px tail that the rails are pulled up over: the art fades
behind the first rail's heading and reaches the page colour before its
cards, so the rail's scroll-edge fades never show as a box. The narrow
layout, whose slide carries its own scrim block, keeps no tail.

* docs(changes): note the smoother hero fade

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(details): season chips up to four, a counts menu from five, no season art

The season picker drops every poster: chips for up to four seasons, a menu
button from five whose rows read the season and "N episodes · M watched".
The season synopsis loses its cover, sits on the number column 24px above
the list and renders nothing without a plot of its own. The player's episode
panel shares the picker and loses its dropdown thumbnails too; its season
strip stays.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(details): bare rows for seasons without metadata, skeletons while it loads

A season whose final episode data has no plot and no usable still (the
series poster or season cover repeated as a still counts as none) renders
44px rows: number, title, meta and an inline check or progress bar, the same
action slot, no grid toggle. While the provider list or a TMDB lookup that
could still fill a bare-looking season is outstanding, the episodes are
skeleton rows at the full row's exact geometry instead of a spinner; a
season the provider already describes renders at once.

Xtream tracks the show match and each season's enrichment in the store;
Stalker tracks its show match in the selection state and settled season
fetches in its TMDB service, and now reports a regular series' season
request as loading instead of an empty series.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(details): loading skeletons laid out like the loaded page

The hero skeleton targeted ngx-skeleton-loader's old `.loader` class, so
its blocks kept the library's light default fill and margins; `display:
block` stacked the chips and buttons into columns; and the details column
sat at the top while the loaded one is bottom-aligned, so the title dropped
~150px on load. It is now plain shimmer blocks at the loaded hero's
geometry with the stage height kept while loading. The Xtream series page
shows an episodes section skeleton under it, and the Stalker series hero
holds the Play button's place while seasons load.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test(e2e): the modeled Stalker series renders bare rows

Its episodes repeat the series poster and carry no plots, so the shared
series surface check now expects 44px bare rows without thumbnails or a
grid toggle in both themes. The thumbnail hairline and grid checks stay in
the Xtream suite, whose episodes have stills.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* style(details): format the season picker stylesheet

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(details): episode skeletons never outlive their metadata

The loading state added for TMDB-enriched episode rows could stick or
flicker:
- an empty season is never enriched, so its host never settled it and the
  season showed six skeleton rows forever instead of its empty state;
- Xtream re-marked an enriched season pending on every selection write,
  turning rendered rows back into skeletons (and dropping row focus) for
  each cache read;
- a superseded lookup of a reopened series, or of a Stalker item without
  an id, could settle a newer lookup's pending state or never clear it;
- TMDB requests have no timeout, so a blocked TMDB host held provider
  episodes back for minutes.

Metadata now only holds back a season that has episodes, the wait is
capped at 4s per season, only the latest lookup of a key (or selection)
settles it, a settled Xtream season stays settled within a visit and a
new visit starts its seasons afresh.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(details): described seasons render at once; room for titles on phones

Metadata lookups held every season as skeletons until TMDB answered,
even one the provider had already described with plots and stills. The
state now waits for metadata only when the current data would render
bare; described rows show at once and the metadata lands in place.

At a pane width of 480px or less the list row kept the 112px thumbnail
and the action slot beside the text, leaving a 320px phone about 18px
for the title. The thumbnail shrinks to 96px there and the actions take
their own row under the text.

The phone-width grid-area placements applied to grid cards too, which
declare no template areas, so a card's artwork and text overlapped in a
narrow pane. The placements are scoped to list rows; the surface check
now also asserts a card's text stays under its artwork at 360px.

* fix(details): a still that only one episode carries is not a repeat

The distinct-stills check counted unique image URLs and treated a single
one as the series poster repeated, so a season where one episode has a
genuine still and the rest have none lost that still and went bare,
with its grid toggle. One image on one episode is now a still; only one
image on several episodes counts as a repeat.

* fix(details): phone-width skeleton rows match the rows they precede

At a pane width of 480px or less the finished list row uses a 96px
thumbnail and an action row under the text, but its skeleton kept the
112px single-row layout, so pictures and text moved when loading ended.
The skeleton row now carries an empty 34px action slot and mirrors the
phone layout.

* fix(details): no air date from a placeholder or an impossible day

The Date constructor turned a provider's "0000-00-00" into a day in
1899 and rolled "2025-02-31" into March, so the episode meta line
showed dates nobody sent. An ISO day is now validated part by part and
an invalid one leaves the date out. The season menu's container colour
goes through mat.menu-overrides(), as the UI guidelines require.

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

* style(details): spinner colours through mat.progress-spinner-overrides()

The episode item set the spinner's indicator colour as raw --mat-*
declarations; the UI guidelines want Material tokens set through the
component's overrides mixin, which rejects unknown names at build time.

* fix(details): unknown season counts, resume position, hero-skeleton spec

A lazy Stalker VOD season the portal has not answered yet showed
"0 episodes" in the season menu: the picker now takes the per-season
load states and shows no count for such a season. A started episode
whose duration nobody knows (no provider or TMDB runtime, none saved
with the position) lost its saved position from the meta line; it now
reads "Resume at 12:34". The downloads offline-detail spec queried the
ngx-skeleton-loader the hero skeleton no longer uses; it queries the
hero-skeleton test id.

* fix(playback): a reused external player starts each load at its own offset

MPV and VLC are launched with a global --start / --start-time for a
resumed title, and a reused process applies that to every later load:
"Play from beginning", the next episode and a later resume all began
at the first launch's offset. The seek sent right after loadfile does
not help — mpv rejects it before the file is loaded, and the command
sender never reads the reply (verified against a real mpv over IPC).

Every reuse load now carries a per-file start (0 unless an offset is
requested): mpv's loadfile options and VLC's :start-time input option.

* fix(details): loading flags follow the detail container, menus know unloaded seasons

The fullscreen episode picker reports its season through the same
onSeasonSelected as the detail container, so the Stalker view's
episode-list and metadata loading flags followed whichever season was
picked last: choosing another lazy season in fullscreen turned the
detail page's loaded season into skeletons until the portal answered.
Both flags now follow the detail container's own selection.

The fullscreen panel also shares the season picker but never forwarded
its per-season load states, so a lazy season read "0 episodes" in its
menu; the states are forwarded now.

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

* fix(details): Xtream metadata loading follows the detail container too

Like the Stalker view, the Xtream seasons service keyed its metadata
loading flag off the season selected last, which the fullscreen episode
picker also sets: picking another season there could hide the detail
page's settled bare rows behind skeletons for up to four seconds. The
flag now reads the detail container's own selection; the picker's
choice still gets enriched.

Seek-bar segments (catch-up programmes, file chapters) now reach keyboard,
touch and screen-reader users through the shared timelineSegments path:

- aria-valuetext reads the translated "<title> · <time>" inside a titled

- Two-part label (ellipsized title, whole time), clamped by its measured
  width and re-placed on resize to stay 8px inside the player.
- Opaque --pc-timeline-track with white separators clamped to the track,
  so boundaries hold 3:1 over any frame.
- Translated LIVE badge; LIVE and --:-- are named role="img" elements in
  both docks.
- epglong Xtream mock scenario and an Electron E2E in both themes at

3cc5af1492 perf(playback): make the web players and M3U player OnPush (#1822)
* perf(playback): make the web players and M3U player OnPush

Plan item C6 step 3 for playback: the eight Eager components in
libs/ui/playback (video.js, ArtPlayer, HTML5/hls/mpegts, audio player,
web player view, VOD details, sidebar, external-player dialog) and the M3U
video player and VOD detail switch to OnPush. The player libraries' events
already reach the UI through the signal-backed controls adapter or
outputs, and the players' DOM belongs to the libraries.

The M3U video player rendered three plain fields written outside template
events: the channel-number overlay, cleared by a 2 s debounce timer, and
the player choice, written from an IndexedDB read and a settings effect.
They are signals now, and a test checks that the overlay leaves the DOM
when the timer fires.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test(playback): let the overlay's signal write schedule its own render

Review follow-up (Greptile): the test forced a render with
fixture.detectChanges() after the debounce timer, so it would pass even
if the signal write stopped scheduling an OnPush render. It now runs the
fixture with autoDetectChanges and only advances the fake timers; with
plain fields under OnPush the overlay never renders and the test fails.

2dfdd65f53 refactor(details): give the detail-page files real max-lines headroom (#1813)
* refactor(xtream): split the series details page into focused services

serial-details.component.ts sat at the 400-line max-lines limit and its
playback service and spec were close behind. Move cohesive concerns out
without changing behavior:

- route params, the provider-only flag and the (re)load of the addressed
  series go to SerialDetailsRouteService; the component still registers
  the effect, so effect order is unchanged
- season descriptions, posters and the TMDB season enrichment go to
  SerialDetailsSeasonsService
- actor, Similar and Discover navigation go to injectXtreamDetailNavigation,
  shared with the movie page
- the watched toggles and the episode playback payload leave
  SerialDetailsPlaybackService for SerialDetailsWatchToggles and
  buildSerialEpisodePlayback
- the spec's TestBed moves to a harness and the watched-toggle cases to
  serial-details.season-watch.spec.ts

Counted lines: component 400 -> 318, playback service 388 -> 342,
component spec 1196 -> 674.

vod-details-route.component.ts grew from 618 to 741 counted lines and
vod-details-playback.service.ts reached 395. Extract without changing
behavior:

- the route-derived read model (selected movie, category, catalog item,
  fallback view, multi-source identity, session and content keys) goes to
  VodDetailsSelectionService; the component keeps the same member names
- trailer state and the Similar-rail click move into the hero presenter,
  the cancel-download prompt and the progress-ring geometry into the
  downloads service, navigation into injectXtreamDetailNavigation
- stored positions (last seen, route row, guarded load) become
  VodDetailsPositionState and the external-launch bookkeeping becomes
  VodExternalLaunchClaim
- drop the unused MatTooltip import (NG8113) and eight unused imports

* refactor(stalker): extract series-view positions and watched toggles

stalker-series-view.component.ts grew from 1601 to 1813 counted lines and
its spec reached 1198 of 1200. Move code out verbatim:

- saved positions, their reconcile and the persist/clear writes go to the
  component-provided StalkerSeriesPositionsService; the ordering of reads
  and writes goes to StalkerSeriesPositionQueue
- episode, season and series watched toggles go to
  StalkerSeriesWatchToggleService, the batch core to
  runStalkerWatchToggleBatch
- the lazy VOD season loads go to StalkerVodSeasonEpisodeLoader

Every effect stays registered in the component constructor in its original
order; template bindings and public member names are unchanged.

The spec setup moves to a shared harness and the spillover-prefetch and
TMDB season cases to their own specs; the 184 cases of the directory are
unchanged.

Counted lines: component 1813 -> 1136, component spec 1198 -> 670.

- stalker-search.component.ts (776, baselined): the paging resource, the
  accumulated results and the parental-lock bookkeeping become
  StalkerSearchPagingController, with pure helpers in
  stalker-search-results.util.ts. The spec reaches the moved members
  through component.paging; its cases and assertions are unchanged.

  episode subline becomes buildEpisodeSubline
- vod-details.component.ts (393): the cross-portal Similar loader, the
  provider-only download state and the actor/Similar route helpers move to
  sibling modules

Inputs, outputs, selectors and public members are unchanged.

embedded-series steps three tests repeated to
stalker-embedded-series.fixture.ts. Every test stays in stalker.e2e.ts in
the same order, with the same serial mode and OWNED_MACS reset.

4grayandClaude Fable 5.1 bc5a7fcbf9 fix(playback): keep the saved Embedded MPV player when the mpv check is inconclusive (#1803)
* fix(playback): keep the saved Embedded MPV player when the mpv check is inconclusive

On Linux native-view the support check runs `mpv --version` by bare name
and waits for the login shell PATH first. Since #1784 that lookup is
asynchronous with a 10 s budget; when it ran out, the check ran on the
inherited PATH and answered a plain `supported: false`. The settings store
took that as a verdict and persisted the default player over a saved
Embedded MPV selection. The main process probed again once the shell
answered, but nothing restored the setting.

`EmbeddedMpvSupport` now carries `inconclusive`. The native service sets it
on a missing mpv while its probe has only seen the inherited PATH; the IPC
handler declares that state before probing and registers the re-probe
before the check, so a throwing check cannot leave it stuck. Every other
answer stays final.

Consumers no longer settle on an inconclusive answer: the settings store
keeps the saved player, and the command palette and the settings search
probe again on their next use instead of caching it for the session.

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

* fix(playback): keep asking for Embedded MPV support while the answer is inconclusive

Keeping the saved player on an inconclusive answer left a mounted player
stuck on it: the session controller asked for support once, in its
constructor, and the session effect never starts while unsupported, so the
player did not recover after the login shell answered. The settings page
held its one answer the same way.

`watchEmbeddedMpvSupport()` asks again every 3 s until the answer is final
or the surface is destroyed. The player controller and the settings page
facade load support through it, so playback starts by itself and the
Embedded MPV option appears without reopening the page.

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

* fix(settings): follow an inconclusive Embedded MPV answer to a final decision

The settings store checked a saved Embedded MPV selection once. After an
inconclusive answer it kept the selection and never looked again, so when
mpv turned out to be really missing the player stayed on Embedded MPV
instead of falling back to the default one.

The store now follows the answer with `watchEmbeddedMpvSupport()` until it
is final and only then decides. It acts on an answer only while Embedded
MPV is still the saved player, so a player picked meanwhile, also while
the first answer was pending, is never overwritten.

The watch backs off from 3 s to 30 s between rechecks, so a login shell
that never answers does not keep the app polling at the first rate, and it
no longer schedules a recheck after its answer handler stopped it.

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

* fix(settings): keep the settings search following an inconclusive Embedded MPV answer

The settings page asks the search service for Embedded MPV support once,
when its search facade is created. After an inconclusive answer the service
only probed again on its next call, so with the page left open the
Embedded MPV rows stayed unsearchable after the login shell answered,
while the player option on the same page already updated.

The service now follows the answer with `watchEmbeddedMpvSupport()` until
it is final, which updates the open page and the command palette alike. A
call made while the answer is still inconclusive restarts the watch, so it
asks at once as before.

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

* fix(settings): follow Embedded MPV support for search only while the settings page is open

The settings search service is provided in the root injector, so the
watch it started on its first use had no owner: with a login shell that
never answers it kept asking every 30 s until the app quit, long after
the settings page or the command palette that needed the answer was
closed. A failed recheck also ended the watch as if it were a final
answer, hiding the Embedded MPV rows for the rest of the session.

The service now separates the two uses. `ensureEmbeddedMpvSupportLoaded()`
is a single request again, for the command palette. The settings page
calls `followEmbeddedMpvSupport()` and ends it when the page is destroyed.
Only a final answer is kept: after an inconclusive one or a failed
request the next use asks again, for the palette's player commands too.

4grayandClaude Opus 5.5 e8b181fcea fix(ui): Cyrillic/Greek weights, html lang, weight normalisation (#1780)
Load Roboto 600/700 and DM Sans 700 so Cyrillic and Greek headings render
real semibold and bold faces instead of a synthetic bold, keep
<html lang> in step with the UI language, and move every font weight onto
the 400/500/600/700 scale (JetBrains Mono at 500 or lighter; the dashboard
LIVE badge now uses the interface font at 700).

Add the `styles:font-weights:validate` ratchet guard and its CI step. It
reads stylesheets much as Sass and the browser do (cascade, layers,
mixins, content blocks, `@extend`, `@at-root`, `:is()`/`:where()`,
keyframes) and lists what it deliberately does not trace in its header.

* fix(player): keyboard focus, contrast and ARIA for controls and settings

Dock and settings-panel icon buttons draw a 2px --pc-text ring on
:focus-visible, and Material's theme-coloured focus layer is off, so
keyboard focus shows on video in the light theme too. A focused selected
subtitle swatch now differs from one that is only selected.

Settings headings read --pc-text-secondary on denser glass
(--pc-glass-bg-dense, 0.86): 4.5:1 or more over mid-grey and white
frames. They wrap (overflow-wrap: anywhere, hyphens: auto), so long
German and Russian headings stay inside the sheet's heading column.

The settings panel is now radio groups only (SettingsRadioGroupDirective
over a CDK FocusKeyManager): one Tab stop per group on the checked option,
arrows, Home and End move focus without applying, and Space/Enter checks.
The dialog and its groups are named by real h2/h3/h4 headings, the
load-file action sits outside the subtitle radio group, the subtitle and
speed chips carry their value in their name ("Subtitles: English"), and
tune has aria-haspopup="dialog".

Adds a web E2E for the keyboard path in both themes with an axe check on
the open panel, and de/ru sheet heading wrapping; axe-core is a new dev
dependency for it.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(player): arrows check settings radios; subtitle chip reads On

Review follow-up:
- Arrow keys, Home and End now check the settings radio they reach, as a
  native radio group does (the directive clicks it, so the template's
  handler applies the choice); an option the engine already reports as
  checked is not applied again.
- With subtitles on but no track marked selected yet (the engine can
  report the switch before the track list), the subtitle chip reads and
  announces "On" (new SUBTITLES_ON key, 19 locales) instead of "Off".
- The swatch row has 4px padding on every side, so the outer focus ring
  is not clipped at the scroll edge of the panel body.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(player): re-apply a settings radio while a switch is pending

The arrow-key check skipped any option the engine still reported as
checked. Arrowing from audio track A to B and back to A before the engine
confirmed B therefore sent no command for A, and playback ended on B with
focus on A. An arrow move always lands on an option other than the last
one applied, so it now applies unconditionally.

The card appeared a fixed 8 minutes before the end: most of a short

- Adaptive lead: 4% of the episode, clamped to 40 s … 3 min.
- A closing-credits chapter in the last third, when timeline segments
  carry one, brings the card forward to its start (capped at 5 min).
- Close button and Escape dismiss the card for the current next episode.
- After 10 s (not while hovered) the card collapses into a one-line pill.
- Seconds countdown in the last minute.
- New playback setting "Up next card" (default on) turns it off.

- Offer the Up next card setting for Embedded MPV only under the

* fix(playback): restart the Up next collapse delay for a new episode

- A card that stays mounted while its next episode changes gives the new

  current series path supplies chapters yet.

* feat(playback): give the fullscreen side panel the settings panel's glass look

The fullscreen channel/episode panel was a full-height graphite strip while
the controls' settings panel is an inset, rounded glass card. The side panel
now wears the same surface: 16px inset (8px under 560px), 20px corners, the
controls' glass fill, hairline border, blur and shadow, the same open motion
and a 32px square close button. The edge hint uses the same glass, and the
episode list marks the playing row with the settings panel's selected cyan.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(playback): dismiss the side panel from the exposed edge gutter

The inset card leaves the hot zone's left strip visible beside it, above the
scrim, so a click there re-ran show() instead of dismissing. A completed
primary press in the zone now closes an open panel; hovering there still
counts as inside, since a hover-opened panel leaves the pointer resting in
that strip. The playing episode row also keeps its cyan tint on hover/focus.

* fix(playback): decide an edge press from the panel state at pointerdown

A press held on the edge past the hover dwell opened the panel before the

bcc6186c88 fix(settings): hide cached title matches the parental lock withholds (#1735)
* fix(settings): hide cached title matches the parental lock withholds

Cross-playlist title matches are cached by their consumers (Actor and
Discover routes, the dashboard trending and recommendation rails and
the four "similar in your portals" rails), so matches found while
unlocked kept advertising locked titles and their playlist names after
a relock. Each consumer now filters on read through a reactive
predicate on the match's provider category, so a relock hides them at
once and an unlock shows them again, without a re-query.

Closes #1723

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(settings): fall back to unlocked copies of a withheld title match

The dashboard trending and recommendation rails and the "similar in your
portals" rails picked one match per title at load, so hiding a withheld
match lost a copy of the same title in an unlocked portal. They now keep
every row the lookup returned and pick the match on read from the rows
the parental lock does not withhold. Adds the release note.

* fix(settings): derive the recommendations seed heading from the visible cards

The rail kept only the seeds that contributed a card to the original
selection, so a seed whose recommendations filled in after a relock (or
an offline prune) was missing from the "Because you watched" heading.
Every seed of the load is kept in order and the heading lists those that
contribute a card now.

d8229b98fa feat(playback): record recently viewed only after the stream plays (#1732)
* feat(playback): record recently viewed only after the stream plays

A channel, movie or episode used to enter Recently Viewed (and the
dashboard's Continue Watching hero) the moment it was selected or its
link was resolved, so streams that failed straight away cluttered the
history.

Writers now defer the write to a root PlaybackHistoryGate, keyed by the
stream URL and/or the playback session key. The inline players confirm
those keys once the owned engine's position has advanced by two seconds
(seeks, stalls, pauses and a previous stream's progress do not count),
the radio player does the same, and a launched MPV/VLC session confirms
on `opened`/`playing`. M3U with MPV/VLC configured keeps recording on
selection. Covers M3U (live, radio, movie detail), Stalker (live, radio,
VOD, series), Xtream VOD and series, and the global live collection.

The M3U host's embeddedPlayback is now compared by value: the history
write updates the playlist meta mid-playback, and a new but identical
playback object remounted the engine and restarted the stream.

E2E flows that relied on recording-on-click now play local fixtures
(HLS/TS/WebM routed in place of unreachable or public streams) and wait
for confirmed playback.

* fix(playback): tighten recently viewed confirmation per review

- Correlate by session key first: when both the deferred write and the
  confirmation carry a playbackSessionKey, only that is compared, so the
  same stream URL played in another playlist no longer records a failed
  attempt. URLs remain the fallback (portal writes, MPV/VLC sessions).
  The M3U radio player now receives the host's session key.
- Count only playing progress: engines report `playing` (not paused, not
  seeking) with each time update, so short seeks of paused media no
  longer confirm a view.
- Xtream: a write confirmed after a playlist switch still saves to its own
  playlist but no longer replaces the current playlist's recent list.
- Global live tab: a row confirmed after another row was selected still
  moves to the top of an open Recently Viewed list (only a disposed tab
  skips the notification).

* fix(playback): confirm session-keyed history only by its own session

A write deferred with a playback session key (M3U) is now confirmed only
by that key. The app-wide MPV/VLC session confirmation carries just the
URL, so opening the same stream externally from another playlist could
still commit an abandoned attempt. An "Open in MPV/VLC" recovery launch is
instead confirmed by the WebPlayerViewComponent that requested it, under
its own session key, once the launch has opened.

* perf(playback): keep the history gate off the initial bundle

The `@iptvnator/services` barrel ships in the initial bundle, so adding
PlaybackHistoryGate there (and subscribing to it from the app-wide
ExternalPlaybackService) grew renderer.initialBytes by 1,141 bytes.

- Move the gate to a new lazy-only `playback-data-access` project
  (`@iptvnator/playback/data-access`; scope:shared, domain:playback,
  type:data-access) and register it in the coverage policy.
- The gate subscribes to MPV/VLC session updates itself; it is created by
  the first deferred write, which precedes the launch it waits for.
  ExternalPlaybackService is back to master.
- The Xtream "playlist switched before confirmation" check moves to the
  lazy helper; the initial-path store only takes a `skipListRefresh` flag.

Net effect on this branch: +27 bytes over master (master itself is
108 bytes over the ratchet baseline already).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* perf(playback): drop late Xtream confirmations off the initial path

The Xtream store ships in the initial bundle, so even the small
`skipListRefresh` flag cost 27 bytes there. A confirmation can only
arrive after a switch to another playlist from a slow MPV/VLC launch
(the inline player goes with the page), so the lazy helper now drops it
instead: recording it would misfile the item or replace the other
playlist's recent list. with-recent-items is back to master.

This branch is now 3 bytes below master on renderer.initialBytes; the
ratchet still reports master's pre-existing overage.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test(playback): pass the spec type-check gate from master

- playback-data-access: align tsconfig.spec.json with the epg-data-access
  config #1705 updated (bundler resolution, global.d.ts for window.electron).
- M3U recent-history spec: type the selectSignal override.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(playback): keep late Xtream confirmations in their own playlist history

A confirmation that arrives after a switch to another playlist (a slow
MPV/VLC launch) is no longer dropped: the lazy helper saves it to the
captured playlist through the data source, without reloading the store's
recent list, which belongs to the other playlist by then. The store and its
barrel ship in the initial bundle, so the save path stays in the feature
helper; renderer.initialBytes stays under the baseline.

* fix(playback): correlate global live-tab history by its session key

The unified Favorites/Recent live tab deferred its history write by stream
URL only, so the same URL played from another playlist could confirm a
failed selection, and a switch to catch-up before confirmation could never
match. It now defers with the tab's playlist-scoped playbackSessionKey (the
key its players confirm with), and the tab's radio player receives it too.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(playback): keep MPV/VLC rows of the live tab confirmable by URL

The live tab's session key can only be confirmed by its own inline
players; MPV/VLC confirm the launched URL alone. A row that goes to an
external player (also later, after a double-click) now defers by URL, and
only rows played inline carry the session key.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(playback): per-channel M3U history attempts, capability-based Xtream fallback

- M3U: the recently-viewed dedupe key now includes the channel id, so a
  second row of the same URL defers its own write (its session key) and
  is recorded when it plays after the first row failed.
- Xtream late write: key uncached content by Xtream id per
  supportsXtreamSqliteDataSource (the data-source factory's contract), not
  by a generic Electron bridge.

650da4a1d3 ci(test): type-check Jest spec programs and gate it in CI (#1705)
* build(test): make spec tsconfigs resolve what Jest resolves

Lib spec tsconfigs used module: commonjs with node10 resolution, which cannot
see Angular's exports-only secondary entry points, and dropped global.d.ts, so
tsc reported thousands of resolution errors and no window.electron typing.
Switch them to module: preserve with bundler resolution (ts-jest still forces
CommonJS emit outside ESM mode), add global.d.ts to every spec program, type
jest.unstable_mockModule for the ESM workspace, include the ui-epg and
ui-playback specs that jest.web-esm.workspace.ts runs under the web spec
config, and drop the snack-bar stub that shadowed the real Material types.

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

* ci(test): gate spec type-checking with typecheck:spec

Add tools/typecheck/spec-typecheck.mjs, which runs tsc --noEmit over every
tsconfig.spec.json with a small pool and fails on any diagnostic, wire it into
the unit-and-typecheck job after typecheck:ci, and document the gate and the
spec tsconfig conventions in the validation map. Also bring the non-Tier-A
spec configs (remote-control-web, ui-remote-control, stalker-mock-server) to
the same conventions so the gate covers the whole workspace.

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

* test: fix the spec type errors surfaced by typecheck:spec

With the spec programs resolving modules and ambient typings correctly,
tsc reported 432 genuine errors across the Tier A projects: read-only
capability flags assigned on Partial<> doubles, signal-store values used as
types, fixtures missing required fields, index-signature property access,
partial bridge doubles cast through incompatible shapes, and deferred
resolvers narrowed to never. Type the doubles instead of casting to any:
writable mapped types for capability flags, InstanceType<typeof StalkerStore>,
typed jest.fn signatures, protectedState: false on test signal stores, and
completed fixtures. Production changes are limited to bracket access for
index-signature properties under the libs' noPropertyAccessFromIndexSignature
setting and two narrowing guards in the global favorites loader.

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

* test(playback): use the ESM setup's jest global in the controls fixtures

The fixture imported jest from @jest/globals, which is not a direct
dependency. Jest provides that module at runtime, so tests passed, but on a
clean pnpm install tsc cannot resolve it and typecheck:spec failed in CI.
The ESM test setup already installs import.meta.jest as the global, typed
by @types/jest, as the other ESM specs use it.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: type the parental lock doubles merged since the gate was written

The parental lock feature (#1601) and the Stalker actor route landed on master
with spec doubles declared as zero-argument jest.fn()s that the tests then
drive with the real arguments, plus a copy of the ResizableDirective override
imported from a library that does not export it. Give the doubles the lock
service's real signatures, drop the dead override as in the sibling layout
specs, use bracket access for the actor route's personId param, and keep the
Stalker layout spec within the 1200-line limit.

4grayandClaude Fable 5.1 8bc877b625 chore(performance): measure initial bytes of the built web app (#1692)
First step of the performance-journeys ratchet (plan thread: J1 `launch`, counter `renderer.initialBytes`).

- `tools/performance/measure-initial-bytes.mjs` reads the built `dist/apps/web/index.html` and sums `index.html` plus every same-origin `<script src>`, `<link rel="stylesheet">` and `<link rel="modulepreload">` it references. Manifest, icons, external URLs and lazy chunks are not counted. A referenced file missing from the build fails the measurement instead of counting as zero bytes.
- `--json` prints the breakdown; `--summary <file>` writes the `journeys.<journey>.counters` shape a ratchet checker will consume (next PR).
- New Nx project `performance-tools` (test + lint targets), Tier B in `tools/coverage/coverage-policy.json`, root scripts `perf:initial-bytes` and `perf:tools:test`.
- New contract `docs/architecture/performance-journeys.md`, linked from the validation map, the agent context map and the README.
- **Review follow-ups:** resources are deduplicated by request URL (query kept, fragment dropped); `index.html` is parsed with parse5 (already a repository dependency, scripting enabled), so comments, bogus comments, raw-text bodies (script/style/noscript/title/textarea), inert `<template>` contents and character references in attributes all follow the HTML5 algorithm instead of a hand-written scanner; the review's edge cases stay as regression tests; docs show the `pnpm --silent` form for JSON output and explain how the counter relates to Angular's rounded "Initial total".
- **Found while measuring:** the environment files and the playback diagnostic panel imported the whole `package.json` (`import packageJson from '@package'`), which esbuild cannot tree-shake, so `main.js` carried the complete file and the counter moved with every script or dependency edit. They now import `{ version }` only (eb662c485): `main.js` shrinks by **11,539 bytes** and the counter no longer depends on `package.json`. Jest's ESM loader exposes JSON only as a default export, so the two web Jest configs map `@package` to a stub that serves the real file's fields as named exports. Release note: `.changes/web-version-only-from-package-json.md` (`type: perf`).

Production build after this PR measures **2,739,508 bytes** (11 files + `index.html`); Angular's "Initial total" is this minus `index.html` and `assets/app-config.js`. The baseline file and the CI check land in the follow-up PRs; C1 (lazy Angular date locales) then lowers it.

4grayandClaude Fable 5.1 4cce4acaad feat(portal): season thumbnails in the season dropdown + PR #1628 follow-ups (#1633)
* feat(portal): season thumbnails in the season dropdown + PR #1628 follow-ups

Follow-ups to the season posters shipped in #1628:

- The >6-seasons dropdown (`SeasonTabsComponent`) now carries a 28×42
  season thumbnail at the start of each menu row that has a poster and in
  the closed trigger for the selected season, fed by a new `seasonPosters`
  input from the season container and the fullscreen episode panel. Rows
  without a poster get no placeholder, a failed image is dropped, and the
  pill row stays text-only as the design review decided.
- The fullscreen season strip's episode count uses its own
  `PORTALS.EPISODE_COUNT_ONE/OTHER` keys instead of borrowing the download
  manager's; all 18 locales filled through the i18n merger from their
  existing `DOWNLOADS.EPISODE_COUNT_*` translations.
- The Stalker mock's serve targets no longer pin `PORT` (an nx:run-commands
  `env` entry overrides the shell), and `main.ts` resolves `PORT`, then the
  Playwright-side `MOCK_PORT` alias, then 3210 — so `MOCK_PORT=3310` now
  relocates the whole E2E run. The Xtream mock honours `XTREAM_MOCK_PORT`
  the same way.
- `resolveAutoSelectedSeason` gets a direct spec covering every branch.

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

* fix(xtream-mock): mint marketing asset URLs on the port the server bound

Greptile P1 on #1633: the listener honoured `XTREAM_MOCK_PORT`, but
`marketingAssetOrigin()` still read `PORT` alone, so a run relocated only
through the alias sent every poster/backdrop/logo/episode URL to 3211.

One resolver (`resolveXtreamMockPortString` in `mock-port.ts`: `PORT`,
then `XTREAM_MOCK_PORT`, then 3211) now feeds the environment parser, the
marketing asset origin and the demo-guide origin fallback. A spec pins the
precedence and that `marketingAssetUrl` follows the bound port.

4grayandClaude Fable 5.1 7790e68147 feat(portal): show each season's own poster beside the season tabs (#1628)
Series detail pages now render the selected season's poster as a season
cover next to the season tabs and description, and the fullscreen episode
panel shows the same poster as a season strip above its tabs.

Resolution is TMDB-first, like the show artwork merge: the lazy season
enrichment stores `/tv/{id}/season/{n}` `poster_path` as a w342 URL in
`tmdb_season_posters` (Xtream) or `StalkerSeriesTmdbSeasonsService.posters()`
(Stalker), under the same write-only-if-changed convergence guard as the
season overview. Xtream falls back to the provider's `seasons[].cover_big`/
`cover` when it is an http(s) URL other than the show poster, because panels
repeat the show poster on every season. Stalker is TMDB-only.

The cover column is not rendered for one-season items, seasons without a
poster, or a failed image, so every fallback is today's markup. It is sized
by a new `--season-cover-width` token (96/120/144px per Settings.coverSize).
The hero poster never follows the season.

4grayandClaude Fable 5.1 c76a901e8d fix(ui): keep one Back arrow on detail pages (#1627)
Movie and series detail pages showed two arrow_back controls while the
inline player was open: the shell's sticky arrow (added in #1576 so Back
survives scrolling) meant "Close player" in watch state, while the
now-playing bar carried a second arrow that meant route-level Back — the
same icon with two meanings, next to a "Close player" button that
duplicated the first.

The shell's sticky arrow is now route-level Back in browse and watch
alike, and the bar carries no arrow of its own. Closing the player is
the bar's "Close player" button and Escape, which still unwinds one
level (close, then back). Hosts without a browse Back target (M3U,
downloads) render no arrow in either state.

Unit specs for the shell and the inline player cover the new contract;
the Electron and web E2E helpers that pressed Back from watch are
updated, and the M3U flow closes the player through the bar's button.
Docs, the mirrored CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md paragraph and a release note
follow the change.

4grayandClaude Fable 5.1 fa8ce26991 feat(playback): fullscreen episode panel for series playback (#1620)
Series playing in fullscreen get the same slide-in side panel the live channel list has, with season tabs and the episode list: rest the mouse on the left edge, click it, or press C; pick an episode and it plays inline without leaving fullscreen.

- Panel contract: `FullscreenChannelPanelHost` gains optional `panelSearchEnabled` and `panelKind`; the template context gains `open`. Pointer/keyboard rules and the four live providers are unchanged.
- Series host: `PortalInlinePlayerComponent` provides the token through `createEpisodePanelHost()` and stamps `app-fullscreen-episode-panel` (SeasonTabsComponent over rows with TMDB still or numeral tile, label, runtime, clamped overview, progress, watched check, now-playing marker; playing row centred on open). Episode clicks reuse the Up Next rail's inline path; season tab clicks reach the hosts' `onSeasonSelected` (Xtream TMDB season enrichment, Stalker lazy VOD load with a Retry row after a failed request).
- Gates: `Settings.fullscreenChannelPanel` (label now covers both lists in all locales), episode content only, native-view Embedded MPV withheld by the view, external players excluded.
- Inline-series e2e moved to `xtream-series-playback.e2e.ts` with shared Xtream helpers in a fixture; adds a fullscreen episode switch through the panel.

4grayandClaude Fable 5.1 c110519412 fix(playback): make the fullscreen channel panel discoverable and calmer to close (#1619)
* fix(playback): make the fullscreen channel panel discoverable and calmer to close

The left-edge hot zone was an invisible 28px strip with nothing telling the
user where the list lived, so "hovering the left side" rarely reached it while
`C` always worked. Mouse movement over the stage now reveals a slim edge hint
tab (CSS chevron, fades after 2.5 s idle, lit while the pointer rests in the
zone), the zone grows to 40px (48px coarse), and a click or tap on the edge
opens at once without the dwell.

Closing follows the pointer more honestly: the mouse-leave grace grows from
420 ms to 1 s, and it applies only once the pointer has engaged with the
panel, so a `C`-opened list no longer closes while the mouse merely roams over
the video under the user's typing. Clicks inside the panel never close it.

Found on the way: closing with Escape while the mouse still rests on the edge
reopened the panel 160 ms later, because Chromium synthesizes a `pointerenter`
on the hot zone the aside slid away from. An explicit close now re-arms the
zone only on the next real pointer move.

Verified live over CDP on HTML5, Video.js, ArtPlayer and Embedded MPV
frame-copy; the hover mechanism itself was sound on every engine.

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

* fix(playback): open the panel only on a primary click begun on the edge

Review follow-up. The hot zone opened on every pointerup, so a drag released
over the edge, a right or middle click and a pen barrel button all opened the
panel; now pointerdown records the primary pointer and pointerup must match
it (a leave or cancel forgets the press). The synthetic pointerenter that
follows an explicit close no longer arms the hint either: the edge stays
clear until the next real pointer move, which arms it and starts the dwell.

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

* fix(epg): harden guide query scoping, caps and row mapping

- Scoped guide programme/coverage queries now include legacy
  (unsourced) rows via source_url IN (...) OR IS NULL OR '',
  mirroring EpgQueryService's legacy fallback.
- getProgramsForChannels/getProgramCoverage build their result from
  the normalized, capped window.channelIds instead of the raw
  request, so a key cut by the cap is absent rather than [] — an
  invalid window now returns {}. Truncation logs counts only.
- Split the 100-channel guide cap from a new 2000-key coverage cap,
  and cap sourceUrls at 50; normalizeGuideWindow takes the cap as a
  parameter and moved (with guideWindowOverlapSqlText) into
  epg-guide-window.util.ts.
- Extracted shared row mapping (toEpgProgramFromRow/isValidEpgProgram)
  into epg-program-row.util.ts, used by both EpgQueryService and
  EpgGuideQueryService so invalid start/stop rows are dropped
  identically in both.
- Added a real-SQLite-backed test for the overlap predicate's exact
  text, plus per-key array copies in the response.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(epg): render the guide predicate in tests and document its scope

Correct the guide query's JSDoc: it runs one query accepting the union
of requested-source and unsourced legacy rows, unlike EpgQueryService's
two-query scoped-then-legacy fallback. Replace the hand-maintained
plain-SQL twin of the Drizzle overlap predicate with a rendered copy of
the real predicate (SQLiteSyncDialect().sqlToQuery) in the spec, add a
source-scoping case, and drop the now-redundant operator-sequence test.
warnIfTruncated reuses uniqueTrimmedStrings and names which read
(programme/coverage) was truncated. Rename epg-query.service.ts's local
EpgProgramRow to EpgProgramSelectRow so it isn't confused with the
shared EpgProgramRow type, and document getProgramCoverage like its
sibling.

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.

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

* fix(m3u): keep the sidebar mounted while the guide is open

Guide mode wrapped the sidebar in `@if (!guideOpen())`, so opening the
guide destroyed `app-channel-list-container`, whose `ngOnDestroy`
dispatches `resetActiveChannel()`. That cleared the active channel, which
unmounted the block hosting `app-epg-guide` and tripped the
`!canOpenGuide()` effect into closing the guide again: the guide never
appeared and the page dropped to "Please select a channel".

The sidebar now stays mounted and is hidden with
`.sidebar--guide-hidden` plus `inert`, so it is neither focusable nor read
by assistive technology while the guide owns the layout. Hiding also
preserves the channel list's scroll position across guide toggles.

timeline toolbar and asserts the row list, the "Only with EPG" filter, a
channel switch that keeps the guide open, the hidden-but-mounted sidebar,
and that the player element survives both the mode and channel switches.

* fix(epg): match guide favorites by channel URL and skip re-activating the playing row

Favorites are persisted by channel URL (FavoritesActions.updateFavorites),
so the Favorites scope compared the wrong key; the id stays as a legacy
fallback. A double-click arrives as click, click, dblclick and each
activate restarts playback, so the guide now leaves the already-playing row
alone and the commit path only closes.

* refactor(epg): split the guide shell, add a roving focus model and offset-aware search times

The shell component now owns rows, focus and the viewport only: the day,
zoom, density, filters, clock and day geometry move to EpgGuideViewState,
and every programme-dialog entry point to EpgGuideDialogController.

Keyboard navigation is reachable by assistive technology: exactly one grid
cell carries tabindex="0" (the focused cell, else the playing row's channel
cell, else the first row's), the guide moves DOM focus with it after each
handled key, a click hands the roving index to the clicked cell, and the
viewport, rows and cells expose grid/row/gridcell roles.

Search results were formatting raw provider instants, so they ignored the
EPG display offset; they go through getProgramTimeMs like every other time
the guide renders.

* fix(epg): clear guide search on scope change, match the active duplicate by url, keep failed coverage unknown

Search hits carry scope-local row ids, so a scope change drops them.
Two playlist entries can share an id but not a stream, so the active row
is matched by id + url before falling back to the id. A failed coverage
query now rejects instead of answering an empty set, which the guide
already treats as "coverage unknown" (every row stays visible).

* fix(epg): tell duplicate guide rows apart by group, keep G out of dialogs, use prototype-safe answers

The store spreads the selected channel, so the active row is matched by
id, url, group and name before widening; G no longer closes the guide from
a dialog or menu; guide answers use null-prototype records so a key named
__proto__ stays an own property.

* fix(epg): let coverage reject on lookup failures and compare whole entries for the active guide row

EpgQueryService.getChannelMetadata swallowed database errors into {}, so the
guide's coverage read could publish an empty set after a transient failure;
the guide now uses the strict resolveChannelMetadata (getChannelMetadata is
the fail-soft wrapper around it). The active guide row is matched on the
whole channel entry (all fields except the reducer-rewritten epgParams)
before widening to url and id, so copies that differ only in playback
headers or logo are told apart.

* fix(epg): let the guide return catch-up to live and normalise programme-search rows

The guide source contract gains an optional livePlayback signal: while the
host plays a catch-up URL, the active row may be activated again, which is
how the M3U host returns to live. EPG_DB_SEARCH_PROGRAMS now maps the raw
snake_case rows to the EpgProgram shape the bridge promises (plus the joined
channel name), so search hits resolve their channel and keep descriptions.

* fix(epg): name search hits, keep guide coverage strict on mapping failures

- Search results and the unresolved programme dialog show the channel's
  display name (playlist row name, else the XMLTV display name the search
  joined in) instead of the raw XMLTV id.
- The guide coverage read resolves manual mappings through a strict variant
  that rejects on database failure, so a mapped channel can never be reported
  as uncovered and hidden by "Only with EPG".
- Architecture doc describes the tiered active-row resolution.

* fix(epg): offer the Guide action in the list view too

The EPG list view mirrors the timeline's input/output contract, but the Guide
action was bound only in the timeline branch, so Settings → EPG → Guide view =
List lost the in-panel entry point. The list toolbar now carries the same
icon-only Guide button behind `guideAvailable`/`openGuide`, and the M3U
host binds it in both branches.

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.

* 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 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.

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 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.

4grayandClaude Fable 5 7a3d5eae56 fix(playback): re-sync embedded MPV bounds on position-only layout shifts (#1476)
An ancestor re-layout can translate the player host without resizing it
(sidebar content settling, EPG panel loading below the player).
ResizeObserver reports size changes only and no DOM event observes
"position changed", so the native child window silently kept its stale
coordinates and rendered offset from the DOM stage.

The session controller now polls the host bounds every 500 ms while a
session is active, compares them against the last synced bounds with a
half-pixel tolerance, and re-syncs only on drift — idle cost is one
getBoundingClientRect per tick with no IPC. The interval is registered
via NgZone.runOutsideAngular and never re-enters the zone, so zone change
detection does not run every tick for the whole stream. Frame-copy
sessions skip the measurement entirely: the canvas is laid out by the DOM
and moves with the layout, so only the native-view child window can go
stale on a position-only shift.

Fixes #1428
