When deleting a non-CUE local library track from the metadata screen,
only the file was removed but the library database entry and provider
state were left untouched, causing the track to persist in the library UI.
Now calls removeItem() on localLibraryProvider after deleteFile().
Resolve API (api.zarz.moe):
- Refactor songlink.go: Spotify URLs use resolve API, non-Spotify uses SongLink API
- Add SongLink fallback when resolve API fails for Spotify (two-layer resilience)
- Remove dead code: page parser, XOR-obfuscated keys, legacy helpers
Multi-artist tag fix (#288):
- Add RewriteSplitArtistTags() in Go to rewrite ARTIST/ALBUMARTIST as split Vorbis comments
- Wire method channel handler in Android (MainActivity.kt) and iOS (AppDelegate.swift)
- Add PlatformBridge.rewriteSplitArtistTags() in Dart
- Call native FLAC rewriter after FFmpeg embed when split_vorbis mode is active
- Extract deezerTrackArtistDisplay() helper to use Contributors in album/playlist tracks
Code cleanup:
- Remove unused imports, dead code, and redundant comments across Go and Dart
- Fix build: remove stale getQobuzDebugKey() reference in deezer_download.go
- Fix M4A/ALAC scan silently failing on Samsung by adding proper fallback
to scanFromFilename when ReadM4ATags fails (consistent with MP3/FLAC/Ogg)
- Propagate displayNameHint to all format scanners so fd numbers (214, 207)
no longer appear as track names when /proc/self/fd/ paths are used
- Cache /proc/self/fd/ readability in Kotlin to skip failed attempts after
first failure, reducing error log noise and improving scan speed on Samsung
- Fix Qobuz download returning wrong album cover when track exists on
multiple albums by preferring req.CoverURL over API default
- Fix FFmpeg M4A metadata save failing with 'codec not currently supported
in container' by forcing mp4 muxer instead of ipod when cover art present
- Clean up FLAC SAF temp file after metadata write-back (was leaking)
- Update LRC lyrics tag to credit Paxsenix API

- Propagate artistTagMode through download pipeline, re-enrich, and metadata editor
- Improve library scan progress: separate polling intervals, finalizing state, indeterminate progress
- Add initial progress snapshot on library scan stream connect
- Use req.ArtistName consistently for Qobuz downloads instead of track.Performer.Name
- Add l10n keys for artist tag mode, library files unit, and scan finalizing status
- Introduce coverCacheKey parameter through Go backend and Kotlin bridge for stable SAF cover caching
- Add MetadataFromFilename flag to skip filename-only metadata and retry via temp-file copy
- Add Qobuz album-search fallback between API search and store scraping

- Add metadata completeness filter (complete, missing year/genre/album artist)
- Add sort modes: artist, album, release date, genre (asc/desc)
- Prune stale library cover cache files after full scan
- Skip empty values and zero track/disc numbers in FFmpeg metadata
- Add new l10n keys for metadata filter and sort options
- Add homeFeedProvider field to AppSettings with picker UI in extensions page
- Update explore_provider to respect user's home feed provider preference
- Add normalizeCoverReference() and normalizeRemoteHttpUrl() to filter
invalid cover URLs (no scheme, no host, protocol-relative)
- Apply cover URL normalization across all screens and providers to
prevent 'no host specified in URI' errors from Qobuz
- Propagate CoverURL from QobuzDownloadResult through Go backend so
cover art is available even when request metadata is incomplete
- Add SearchAll() for Tidal and Qobuz in Go backend (tracks, artists, albums)
- Add searchTidalAll/searchQobuzAll platform routing for Android and iOS
- Add Tidal/Qobuz options to search provider dropdown in home tab
- Show (Recommended) label and auto-select service in download picker
Use Unicode NFD decomposition to strip combining marks so variants like
"Özkent" and "Ozkent" are treated as equivalent. Apply the new helper
in both tidal.go and qobuz.go artistsMatch functions.
- Add dedicated long-timeout download client (24h) for extension file downloads,
preventing timeouts on large lossless audio files
- Skip unnecessary SongLink Deezer prelookup when an extension download provider
handles the track, reducing latency and avoiding spurious API failures
- Prefer native track ID over Spotify ID when a source/provider is set, ensuring
extension providers receive their own IDs correctly
- Update Qobuz MusicDL API endpoint and switch payload URL to open.qobuz.com
- Extract buildQobuzMusicDLPayload helper and add test coverage
Version rolled back from v4.x to v3.7.0. After extensive work on v4's
internal streaming engine, smart queue, DASH pipeline, and media controls,
