Load configured sources before storage probes and the track index, retain visible configuration on failures, and expose loading and retry states. Wait for saved settings before legacy migration and recreate a missing source placeholder without replacing existing identities.
Measure actual playback time and count plays after 30 seconds, with local SQLite aggregation for weekly, monthly and annual summaries. Add recording controls and safe clearing without affecting music or playlists.
Use installed extensions through the existing artist metadata API. Cache catalogs daily, cap concurrency, preserve previous results on provider failures and filter exact release dates into seven- and thirty-day views.
Restore the non-mixing music audio session after decorative video initialization and before playback resumes. Add an artwork switch that releases or pauses video decoders and uses still covers when disabled.
Expose playlist, play-next and queue actions across Library search and album selections, including selected artist albums. Sort playlists, keep long selection toolbars scrollable, separate file operations in metadata menus, and show related local songs without online playback.
Assess album completeness from the full local inventory, deduplicate track positions, and retain unknown status for ambiguous tags or disconnected sources. Add filters and count badges to Material and Mornye, including single-track albums and filtered search.
The scan progress tile offers Pause and Resume. A paused scan releases its foreground service and wake lock, shows a paused notice, and resumes from the next unscanned file.
Fresh staging tables hold no path keys, so the first row for an id no longer issues a delete. Removing scanned paths now runs in one transaction with a subselect instead of committing a lookup and two deletes per chunk.
Android froze the process once the activity stopped, because only track downloads held a foreground service. A dataSync BackgroundWorkService with a partial wake lock now covers library scans and in-app APK downloads, and stops when the last task ends or the system timeout fires. Its notification shows the existing localized progress, so no duplicate appears. If Android refuses the service, work continues as before.
On iOS a scan holds its own background task; on expiry it cancels the scan cleanly instead of being suspended.
The Library list's multi-select toolbar (FLAC upgrade, re-enrich, convert, ReplayGain add/remove, delete) becomes LibraryTrackSelectionBar, and its delete flow becomes deleteLibraryTracks. The Library list renders and behaves as before; other screens can now offer the same actions.
Artist Tag Mode gains "Primary artist only": downloads and re-enrichment write only the first credited artist to Artist and Album Artist, so players list one artist. The FFmpeg MP3, M4A and Vorbis embeds and the AC-4 path now honor the mode; MP3 and M4A previously ignored it.
Manual metadata edits, lyrics embedding and format conversion keep existing or typed credits joined instead of dropping names. The picker scrolls so three options fit on small and landscape screens. Closes#618.
