* feat: add strip country prefix setting
* feat: scope country-prefix stripping to live content and cover missing surfaces
- narrow the heuristic: pipes always strip, dash/colon separators only
when the prefix is a short uppercase tag ("UK - BBC One" strips,
"Sky - Sports F1" and "Mission: Impossible - Fallout" stay intact)
- fall back to the original name when stripping would leave nothing
- scope stripping to live content only: grid type (live/itv/radio),
playback isLive, external sessions without contentInfo, dashboard
cards with contentType 'live'
- cover previously missed surfaces: M3U player EPG timeline header,
M3U inline player title, radio player, dashboard live rails
- replace hardcoded settings strings with translate keys and add
SETTINGS.STRIP_COUNTRY_PREFIX(_DESCRIPTION) to all 18 locales
- add unit specs for the utility plus regression specs for
channel-list-item and external-playback-dock

* test: cover strip-country-prefix call sites for codecov
- dashboard-rail: new spec for cardTitle live/movie/series scoping
- grid-list: strip enabled/disabled, VOD passthrough, 'No name' fallback
- portal-inline-player: live strip vs VOD passthrough
- unified-live-tab: timeline channel name strip + M3U name precedence
- video-player: timeline/radio/inline titles with the setting on and off
- settings-store: default false + persisted true round-trip
- settings-form.utils: new spec for form default and ?? false fallback

* chore(cleanup): delete nine dead components, orphaned i18n keys and unused deps
Removes verified-dead components (0 class/selector references outside
their own files): EpgListComponent (+ epg-list-item), EpgViewComponent,
LiveEpgPanelComponent, StalkerCollectionChannelsListComponent,
NavigationComponent, FilterSortMenuComponent, video-player
ToolbarComponent, PortalCollectionShellComponent and
LoadingOverlayComponent, together with their barrel exports.
Alive code extracted from the deleted trees:
- LiveEpgPanelSummary -> libs/ui/shared-portals/src/lib/live-epg-panel-summary.ts
- EpgProgramActivationEvent -> libs/ui/epg/src/lib/epg-program-activation-event.ts
- epg-list.utils.ts trimmed to the three timeline-used helpers and moved
to libs/ui/epg/src/lib/epg-program.utils.ts
- epg-item-description/ moved up out of the deleted epg-list/ folder
Also removes 18 i18n keys now unused (from all 18 locales), dead CSS
selectors targeting the deleted elements, and unused dependencies:
lodash (+ @types/lodash), semver, @ngrx/component-store and
@videojs/http-streaming (videojs-quality-selector-hls declares no peer
dependency on it; video.js 8 bundles VHS).

* chore(coverage): move shared-portals to Tier C, fix stale doc references
The Tier A gate failed in CI because deleting the dead epg-view and
live-epg-panel components removed the only specs in libs/ui/shared-portals.
The lib now contains a single type-only interface (LiveEpgPanelSummary),
so there is no runtime code to unit test; reclassify it to Tier C with a
documented reason, matching the gate's own guidance.
Also update remaining doc references to the deleted components in
docs/architecture/stalker-epg.md, iptvnator-ui-guidelines.md and
CLAUDE.md.

* feat(epg): add vertical list view for the live EPG panel
Add an EPG list view — a vertical, single-day programme list — as an
alternative rendering of the live EPG panel, selectable via a new
Settings → EPG → "Guide view" toggle (epgViewMode: 'timeline' | 'list',
default 'timeline' so existing users see no change).
- New EpgListViewComponent (app-epg-list-view) mirrors
EpgTimelineComponent's input/output contract 1:1, so all four live
hosts (M3U player, unified live tab, Xtream, Stalker) swap the panel
with a plain @if and identical bindings.
- Reuses the shared view-agnostic EPG modules (classifyTimelineWhen,
hasProgramsForDateKey, epg-archive.util catch-up gating,
epg-summary.util collapsed-summary maths, epg-date helpers,
EpgProgrammeDialogService, app-epg-timeline-empty-state) — no
duplicated logic.
- Rows show time range, title, optional description, live progress on
the on-air row, catch-up "Watch" on past rows when archive playback
is available, and a details dialog; keyboard activation guards
nested buttons (target === currentTarget).
- Auto-focuses the on-air row on channel select, restores it across
collapse/expand remounts, and shows a sticky in-flow "On now" strip
(never overlaying rows) when the current programme is scrolled away;
all scroll maths is rect-based relative to the scroller.
- List mode raises only the inline panel height via an epg--list
modifier (--epg-inline-height clamp); timeline and collapsed heights
are unchanged.
- Setting flows end-to-end (Settings interface → DEFAULT_SETTINGS →
SettingsStore/StorageMap → segmented control in the EPG section);
Electron-only UI, PWA stays on the timeline default. i18n keys added
to all 18 locales.
- Tests: new component/row/utils/scroll-controller specs, settings
persistence spec, swap tests in all four host specs, and Electron
E2E for the settings round-trip and the rendered list view. Docs
updated (m3u-playlist-module.md).

* fix(epg): address list-view review findings from Codex and Greptile
- Reset the list view to today when a new channel's programme set
arrives while the user is parked on another day (timeline parity):
the scroll controller now keys by the full programme-set identity
(programsFocusKey) and commits today before focusing, instead of
silently stranding the new channel on the stale day. (Codex P2)
- Centralise the 'timeline' fallback as a resolvedEpgViewMode computed
on SettingsStore; the four live hosts consume the derived signal
instead of duplicating the `?? 'timeline'` expression. (Greptile P2)
- Extract the component's reactive plumbing into
registerEpgListViewEffects(), bringing the component back under the
300-line guideline (290). (Greptile P2)
- Controller spec rewritten around programme-set fixtures with new
coverage: return-to-today on channel switch, day navigation left
alone, no-takeover when today has no data, empty-set no-op.

* fix(epg): drop malformed programmes from the list-view day filter
Reject programmes whose stop is not after their start in
buildEpgListRows — same as the timeline's buildTimelineBlocks. Bad
provider data would otherwise render impossible time ranges and could
even be offered as catch-up playable. (Codex P2 on e6fd0d08)

Replaces the vertical EPG list with a shared horizontal `app-epg-timeline`
ribbon across all live surfaces (M3U player, unified live tab, Xtream, Stalker):
zoom, day navigation, short-programme grouping, catch-up/timeshift, and
per-state empty views. Backend gains timezone-aware `datetime()` comparisons,
unscoped source fallback, non-ASCII candidate matching, and chunked candidate
queries.
Timeline split into reusable, view-agnostic modules (archive/summary/dialog
service/render util/scroll controller) for the future EPG list view.
Fixes landed during review:
- honor the controlled `selectedDate` input (seed via linkedSignal)
- restore ribbon position across collapse/expand
- keep the ribbon mounted when scrolling across a gap day
- don't trigger block playback on Enter from nested watch/info buttons
- don't reset timeshift playback on the 30s now-tick during EPG gaps
Greptile 5/5 (safe to merge); Codex clean; CI green.
fix(m3u): highlight active archive epg program
* Store the active archive EPG program with the resolved playback URL so the clicked M3U catch-up row stays highlighted during archive playback.
* Show archive playback state and return-to-live controls in the inline player panel.
* Hide duplicate EPG program rows that share the same time slot while keeping the richer provider entry.
- save Xtream playlist details through browser-safe metadata persistence in PWA\n- keep PWA Xtream data source cache in sync with current playlist metadata\n- cover dialog close timing, stale cache, and PWA data-source bootstrap regression
- merge origin/master into PR #964 and keep embedded MPV test on the isolated playback sub-entrypoint
- centralize EPG capability through DataService.supportsEpg and update PWA web-e2e expectations
- split BrowserAccessError copy between Electron and PWA diagnostics
The custom .apd-head was getting visually orphaned from the rest of the
dialog body: zero horizontal padding so the title sat flush against the
dialog edge (cards inside mat-dialog-content are inset by 24px), plus a
~44px vertical gap above the title even though the head reported
padding: 0.
The gap was Material's .mdc-dialog__title::before — a 40px-tall
invisible inline element used to baseline-align dialog titles to a
grid. Useful for single-line titles, hostile to a two-line head with
explicit subtitle.
Set .apd-head padding to 20px 24px 4px so it shares the dialog
content's 24px horizontal rhythm, then suppress the ::before ghost.
Title now sits 20px from the dialog top edge with the same left inset
as the method cards and the form fields below.

The 5-card method picker was rendering at the old 560px dialog width
which left each card too narrow — titles wrapped to 2-3 lines and the
subtitles to 6, all visible in the user-reported screenshot.
Three fixes:
1. Bump the dialog width from 560px → 780px to match the v0.22 mockup.
maxWidth: 92vw keeps the responsive collapse path intact.
2. Replace the inherited "Add via URL" / "Add via file upload" /
"Add Xtreme Code" / "Add Stalker Portal" / "Import from text" tab
labels with short noun-only card titles: "M3U URL", "M3U file",
"Xtream credentials", "Stalker portal", "Raw m3u text". The dialog
itself is titled "Add playlist" so the "Add" prefix on every card
was redundant. The "Xtreme" misspelling on the old key disappears
as a side effect.
3. Lock cards to min-height: 132px so the URL card (short subtitle)
stops collapsing while the Xtream/Stalker cards (longer subtitle)
stretch — selection states now look visually consistent. Slightly
tighter padding (10/11/12 vs 12/14) to fit the new width without
feeling cramped.
i18n: 5 new METHOD_*_LABEL keys translated across all 17 locales by
per-locale agents; placeholder integrity verified across all 920+
leaf keys.

The Add Playlist dialog used a nested control: pick category
(M3U / Xtream / Stalker) then pick subtype (URL / file / text). That's
9 cells of which only 5 are real — Xtream-via-file and Stalker-via-text
don't exist. Users spent visible time hunting the right path through
the matrix.
Replace it with a flat 5-card method grid that matches the v0.22 mockup
exactly: each card IS a method (M3U URL, M3U file, Xtream credentials,
Stalker portal, Paste raw m3u text), shown side by side with an icon,
label, and one-line description of when to pick it.
Component state collapses from `category` + `m3uSubType` (two signals
with an entangled `playlistType()` mapping) into a single `method`
signal of type PlaylistType. `initFromType` simplifies to one line.
`playlistType()` is kept as a thin alias so the template @switch and
the action-button branches stay untouched.
The selected card is the only place that needs to change for users to
pick a different method — no more "first click type, then click
subtype, then look for the form" two-step.
i18n: 6 new HOME.ADD_PLAYLIST.* keys (subtitle + 5 method subs)
translated across all 17 locales by per-locale agents, with the
existing HOME.TABS.* keys reused for card titles. Placeholder
integrity verified.
Tests: existing clearCurrentForm scenarios still pass after the signal
refactor; added 6 new tests covering the default method (URL) and the
MAT_DIALOG_DATA.type deep-link path for each of the 5 method values.

Swap M3 primary palette from violet to azure so checkboxes, radio
buttons, raised CTAs, and active states read as the same blue used by
the rail selection token. Cascading template + SCSS updates align the
remaining hand-rolled surfaces (Add Playlist dialog, VOD play button,
radio player, multi-EPG, empty-state CTAs) with the unified system.
LIVE stays red (broadcast role), cyan stays on EPG "now" indicator,
green stays on completed-download — semantic colors keep their meaning;
only the indiscriminate accent uses get folded into the blue primary.

PortalStatusService previously did one IPC + HTTPS round-trip per call,
forcing every consumer to roll its own cache (or, more often, not).
The result: opening the homepage rendered N playlist-item components
that each fired their own check, then opening the playlist switcher
fired N more for the same portals.
Move the cache and dedup into the service:
- 30 s TTL cache keyed by `${serverUrl}|${username}|${password}`. Same
credentials = same cache entry, regardless of which playlist row
triggered it.
- In-flight dedup via Map<key, Promise<PortalStatus>>. Two callers
hitting the same portal in the same tick share one network request
instead of racing.
- New `getCachedStatus()` for sync read (used by playlist-switcher to
hydrate the UI on menu open without awaiting).
- New `clearStatusCache()` for log-out / debug flows.
Add `{ skipCache: true }` opt-out for the Xtream import dialog's
"Test Connection" button — that's a user-initiated check that must
return fresh truth, not a 30 s old cached result.
Net result: in the common flow (homepage → switcher), the switcher
opens with cached status indicators instantly. The single in-flight
dedup prevents the playlist-item ngOnInit + switcher onMenuOpened from
racing for the same portal.
Removed the component-local cache from playlist-switcher; service is
now the single source of truth.

Opening the playlist switcher fired one XTREAM_REQUEST IPC + HTTPS
round-trip per Xtream playlist and only updated the UI after ALL of
them resolved. A single slow or hung portal pinned every status dot
in the menu to the misleading red 'unavailable' state for the full
tail latency (often several seconds, sometimes longer).
Four changes land together:
1. Stream results — each portal's dot updates via signal.update() the
moment ITS request resolves, independent of the slowest one. The
previous Promise.all wrote a single Map at the end; now the Map
grows incrementally.
2. New 'checking' status — extends PortalStatus with a pulsing-dot
visual so users see "we're working on it" instead of red dots
that look like failures. Respects prefers-reduced-motion.
3. 30-second TTL cache — opening, closing, and reopening the menu
within 30s reuses prior status results and skips the IPC entirely.
Cache survives across menu opens but is per-component instance
(a global cache is a possible follow-up).
4. AbortController cancellation — closing the menu (or destroying the
component) cancels in-flight checks so a slow portal can't write
stale results into the next round. Solves the 'rapidly open/close
the menu and watch dots flicker' problem.
The actual IPC layer wasn't changed — the wins come purely from
streaming, caching, and not lying to the user about portal state.

Audit found 10 list-rendering components (each >150 lines, all using
signal-based state) on default change detection. Default CD re-checks
every binding on every parent CD cycle (mouse moves, EPG progress
ticks, etc.); under OnPush these only re-check when their own signals
change or when explicitly markedForCheck.
All 10 use signals exclusively for state (no manual subscribe-and-mutate
patterns), so the conversion is straightforward and safe.
Components:
- recent-playlists (740L) — homepage playlist list with drag-drop
- vod-details-route (552L) — Xtream VOD detail page
- playlist-switcher (509L) — workspace shell playlist switcher
- season-container (444L) — Stalker/Xtream series episodes (DoCheck preserved)
- stalker-search (362L) — Stalker search results
- search-results (350L) — Xtream search results
- category-management-dialog (199L) — manage Xtream categories
- recently-added (162L) — Xtream recently-added rail
- category-content-view (Catalog) — category browse page
- grid-list (shared) — generic grid renderer used across portals
