4grayandClaude Opus 5 7045f2d665 fix(portals): stop claiming playback, a cached answer and a resolution
Three findings, all of them the same rule: never state as fact something the
app has not established.

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

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

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