- Embed DownloadQueueLookup into DownloadQueueState; add updatedForIndices() for O(changed) incremental updates during frequent progress ticks instead of full O(n) rebuild
- downloadQueueLookupProvider now reads pre-computed lookup from state directly
- Replace sync file deletion in DownloadedEmbeddedCoverResolver with unawaited async cleanup to avoid blocking the main thread
- Parse JSON payloads on iOS native side (parseJsonPayload) so event sinks and method channel responses return native objects, avoiding redundant Dart-side JSON decode
- Use .cast<String, dynamic>() instead of Map.from() in _decodeMapResult for zero-copy map handling
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
Enable strict-casts, strict-inference, and strict-raw-types in
analysis_options.yaml. Add custom_lint with riverpod_lint. Fix all
resulting type warnings with explicit type parameters and safer casts.
Also improves APK update checker to detect device ABIs for correct
variant selection and fixes Deezer artist name parsing edge case.
- Defer extension VM initialization until first use with lockReadyVM() pattern to eliminate TOCTOU races and reduce startup overhead
- Add validateExtensionLoad() to catch JS errors at install time without keeping VM alive
- Teardown VM on extension disable to free resources; re-init lazily on re-enable
- Replace full orphan cleanup with incremental cursor-based pagination across launches
- Batch DB writes (upsertBatch, replaceAll) with transactions for atomicity
- Parse JSON natively on Kotlin side to avoid double-serialization over MethodChannel
- Add identity-based memoization caches for unified items and path match keys in queue tab
- Use ValueListenableBuilder for targeted embedded cover refreshes instead of full setState
- Extract shared widgets (_buildAlbumGridItemCore, _buildFilterButton, _navigateWithUnfocus)
- Use libraryCollectionsProvider selector and MediaQuery.paddingOf for fewer rebuilds
- Simplify supporter chip tiers and localize remaining hardcoded strings
- 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
- Reduce polling interval from 800ms to 1200ms across download progress, library scan, and Android native stream
- Add dirty-flag caching to Go GetMultiProgress() to skip redundant JSON marshaling
- Replace eager provider initialization with staggered Timer-based warmup (400/900/1600ms)
- Add snapshot-based incremental library scan to avoid large MethodChannel payloads
- Move history stats and grouped album filtering to Riverpod providers for better cache invalidation
- Cap home tab history preview to 48 items with deep equality wrapper to reduce rebuilds
- Throttle foreground service notification updates to 2% progress buckets
- Migrate PageView to PageView.builder with AutomaticKeepAliveClientMixin
- Add comparison table to README
Add set/get/clear store registry URL method channel handlers on Android,
iOS, and Go backend so users can configure a custom extension repository.
Store tab now shows a setup screen when no registry URL is configured,
with a cleaner layout (removed redundant description and helper text)
and visible TextField borders for dark theme.
Minor comment and formatting cleanups across several files.
Parse .cue files in library scanner (Go + SAF) to display individual
tracks instead of one large audio file. Add FFmpeg-based CUE splitting
to extract tracks into separate FLAC files with embedded metadata and
cover art.
- Go: CUE parser, two-pass scan (CUE first, skip referenced audio),
virtual paths (cue#trackNN) for DB UNIQUE constraint, audioDir
override for SAF temp-file scenarios
- Android: SAF scanner recognizes .cue in both full and incremental
scan, copies .cue+audio to temp for Go parsing, unchanged-CUE audio
sibling dedup, parseCueSheet handler resolves SAF audio siblings
- Dart: FFmpegService.splitCueToTracks, CUE split UI in track metadata
screen, persistent output dir for SAF splits with write-back
- CUE virtual path normalization across fileExists/fileStat/deleteFile/
openFile; play/share/open blocked for virtual tracks with guidance to
split first; delete only removes DB entry, not shared .cue file
- iOS: parseCueSheet handler
- Localization: 12 new CUE-related strings

Closes#201
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,
we realized v3 was already feature-complete. Adding more big features
only made maintenance increasingly difficult and the developer's life
miserable. Stripped back to what works: external player only, cleaner
codebase, sustainable long-term.
- Remove just_audio, audio_service, audio_session and entire internal
playback engine (smart queue, notification, shuffle/repeat, prefetch)
- Remove PlaybackItem model, MiniPlayerBar widget, notification drawables
- Remove playerMode setting (external-only now)

FlutterFragmentActivity
