- shell switches to a NavigationRail at >=600dp (same destinations,
badges included); the bottom bar and its blur stay phone-only while
the mini player remains anchored bottom in both modes
- now-playing gains a two-pane landscape layout (artwork left,
metadata/controls right) built from the same widget pieces
- track lists on album/playlist/library-folder screens and search
result sections center at 720dp via wideListInset instead of
stretching across the full tablet width; explore carousels stay
full-bleed intentionally
- album/playlist/library-folder/track-metadata adopt
CollapsingHeaderScrollMixin; artist/library-folder adopt
SelectionModeMixin
- HeaderCircleButton and HeaderMetaRow replace per-screen copies
in album and playlist headers; dead _tallHeader flag removed
- SelectionBottomBar gains optional subtitle labels and backs the
playlist selection bar in queue tab
- single-track convert sheet now reuses BatchConvertSheet
(confirmLabelBuilder + sourceIsLossless params) instead of a
full inline copy
- provider priority page migrated to PrioritySettingsScaffold;
shared showDiscardChangesDialog and ReorderablePriorityItem
replace per-page copies
- home tab search rows unified into one _SearchResultRowItem;
_parseTrack copies rebuilt on Track.fromBackendMap with only
the load-bearing local overrides kept; loading/error scaffold
extracted
- PlayerArtwork widget shared by now-playing and mini player
- LocalOrNetworkCoverImage dispatches file vs network cover in
one place (playlist picker, queue nav, library folder)
Both carried yet another copy of the collapsing detail header.
AlbumDetailHeader gains appBarTitle (selection-aware toolbar title) and a
leading override for the folder screen's close/back switch. The playlist
header adopts the album layout (bottom-anchored content, 0.85 gradient,
length-adaptive title size, scrim only when blurred) instead of its
drifted centered variant; motion-banner and pill-chip meta are preserved
through the slots.
The local/downloaded album screens had drifted copies of the album
header, selection bottom bar, disc chip, batch convert/ReplayGain trio,
and assorted small helpers. All now delegate to the shared widgets, with
the online album screen's design as the reference, and both album screens
run batch actions through the queue_tab engine via UnifiedLibraryItem
(strict-superset implementation covering both DB writebacks and SAF
paths). Also folds the remaining per-screen helper copies (cover URL,
error card, byte/clock formatting, readPositiveInt) into their shared
homes.
Intentional deltas: selection-bar strings follow queue_tab's l10n keys,
both providers reload after a conversion, and audio-analysis durations
round instead of floor.
Extract InLibraryBadge (pasted verbatim in five screens) and
playLocalIfAvailable (duplicated in three) into shared code, and delete
SearchScreen, LibraryPlaylistsScreen, and CollapsingHeader, which are
imported nowhere in lib/.
- Consistent header design across all local screens: blurred cover,
black overlay, bottom gradient, centered square cover, adaptive title,
inline meta line, Play + Shuffle buttons
- Height normalized to 0.6x (clamp 400-580) everywhere
file_picker has no stable release compatible with win32 ^6.x (required by device_info_plus/share_plus/connectivity_plus). Its Windows FFI code is compiled even for Android builds, so a win32 override breaks compilation. Revert file_picker to 12.0.0-beta and restore the original pickFile usage. Other Flutter/Go dependency updates remain on latest stable.
Flutter: bump connectivity_plus, device_info_plus, share_plus, receive_sharing_intent, path_provider, flutter_local_notifications to latest stable. Revert file_picker from 12.0.0-beta to 11.0.2 stable and migrate pickFile (singular) to pickFiles. Add win32 ^6.0.1 dependency_overrides to resolve the win32 5 vs 6 conflict between file_picker stable and device_info_plus (Windows-desktop-only transitive dep, not used on mobile targets). Go: update goja, golang.org/x/mobile, golang.org/x/tools, regexp2/v2 to latest.
- app: clear displayFeatures so bottom sheets/dialogs center on large/foldable screens
- edit metadata sheet: card sections, modern label-above inputs, elegant collapsible headers, removed title icon
- convert + batch convert: modern card-based sheets; shared BatchConvertSheet widget
- queue: keep selection toolbar hidden until modal close animation finishes
- 24-bit and In Library badges now use primary dynamic color
- artist skeleton: remove duplicate name/listeners lines, keep cover placeholder
- files settings: own filename-format controller in a StatefulWidget to fix use-after-dispose crash
Replace in-memory list merging in the queue tab with fully database-
backed pagination using ATTACH DATABASE to join library and history
tables in a single UNION ALL query.
Queue tab:
- Remove localLibraryAllItemsProvider and _queueHistoryStatsProvider
- Add _queueLibraryPageProvider and _queueLibraryCountsProvider backed
by LibraryDatabase.getQueueTrackPage/getQueueCounts/getQueueAlbumPage
- Implement infinite scroll via _handleLibraryScrollNotification with
_libraryPageLimit growing by 300 per batch
- Album/single/total counts computed via SQL GROUP BY aggregates
History database (v5 -> v8):
- v6: add idx_history_track_artist index
- v7: add history_path_keys table for cross-DB dedup, backfill from
existing rows
- v8: add spotify_id_norm, isrc_norm, match_key normalized columns
with indexes, backfill from existing data
- Add getAlbumTracks, findByTrackAndArtist, getGroupedCounts,
existsTrack, findExistingTrack, existingTrackKeys batch lookup
- deleteBySpotifyId now returns deleted count for accurate totalCount
- All write paths maintain history_path_keys consistency
Library database (v7 -> v8):
- v8: add library_path_keys table for cross-DB dedup
- Add getQueueTrackPage, getQueueCounts, getQueueAlbumPage with
ATTACH DATABASE for cross-DB UNION ALL queries
- Dedup local items against history via path_keys JOIN
- All write/delete paths maintain library_path_keys consistency
Download history provider:
- Load only 100 recent items into state.items at startup
- Store lookupItems as immutable List field instead of recomputing
from maps on every access
- Add async fallback to DB in _putInMemoryHistory for items outside
the 100-item window
- Add downloadHistoryPageProvider, downloadHistoryGroupedCountsProvider,
downloadedAlbumTracksProvider, downloadHistoryBatchExistsProvider
- Add catchError to adoptNativeHistoryItem async block
- Fix removeBySpotifyId to query actual DB count instead of decrement
Screen migrations:
- album/artist/playlist/home screens use async DB lookups instead of
sync in-memory state for track existence and playback resolution
- downloaded_album_screen uses downloadedAlbumTracksProvider
- library_tracks_folder_screen uses downloadHistoryBatchExistsProvider
for skip-downloaded checks and cover resolution
Replace the full in-memory List<LocalLibraryItem> in LocalLibraryState
with a lightweight lookup index (ISRCs, matchKeys, filePathById) and
database-backed FutureProvider.family pagination providers.
Database changes:
- Add library schema v7 with normalized lookup columns (track_name_norm,
artist_name_norm, album_name_norm, album_artist_norm, match_key,
album_key) and corresponding indexes
- Backfill normalized columns on migration from v6
- Add getPage, getPageCount, getAlbumPage, getAlbumCount, getLookupIndex,
getCoverPaths, getByFilePath, findFirstByTrackAndArtist DB methods
Provider changes:
- LocalLibraryState no longer holds items list; uses totalCount and
loadedIndexVersion for change tracking
- Deprecate synchronous getByIsrc/findByTrackAndArtist (return null);
add async findExistingAsync, getByIsrcAsync, getById on notifier
- Add localLibraryPageProvider, localLibraryAlbumPageProvider,
localLibraryAllItemsProvider family providers for paginated access
- Add localLibraryCoverProvider and localLibraryFirstCoverProvider
for async cover path resolution from DB
Screen migrations:
- album/artist/playlist screens use findExistingAsync for playback
- library_tracks_folder_screen uses async cover providers and
existsInLibrary for local library indicator
- queue_tab watches localLibraryAllItemsProvider instead of state.items
- library_settings_page uses state.totalCount
- playback_provider uses findExistingAsync
Track metadata screen:
- Replace pushReplacement navigation with in-place state swap using
AnimatedSwitcher for smooth cross-fade transitions on track swipe
- Add metadataLoadGeneration counter to prevent stale async callbacks
- Reset all transient state (lyrics, cover, file check) on track change
UI and UX improvements across the library and queue screens.
- Add pinch-to-zoom for library grid views with animated extent
transitions via _AnimatedLibrarySliverGrid widget
- Replace fixed grid column count with responsive maxCrossAxisExtent
- Add smooth fade-in for cover images (local files via frameBuilder,
network via CachedCoverImage fadeInDuration/fadeOutDuration params)
- Refactor track metadata swipe navigation from push+pop to
pushReplacement to prevent route stack accumulation
- Convert adjacentHorizontalPageRoute to MaterialPageRoute subclass
to support pushReplacement with proper transition semantics
- Add five new metadata completeness filters: missing track number,
missing disc number, missing artist, incorrect ISRC format, and
missing label
- Expose trackNumber, discNumber, isrc, and label on
UnifiedLibraryItem for filter support
- Tighten metadata completeness definition to include all new fields
Delete the entire Qobuz downloader implementation (qobuz.go, qobuz_test.go)
including all API clients, search, metadata, download, and track matching
code. Empty the builtInProviderRegistry now that all built-in providers are
retired. Remove Qobuz-specific exports (SearchQobuzAll, GetQobuzMetadata,
ParseQobuzURLExport) and the downloadWithBuiltInQobuz adapter. Stub out
PreWarmTrackCache and cache management since no built-in providers remain.
Move qobuz cover upgrade regex to cover.go. Update Dart screens, providers,
and localization strings for the provider-agnostic UI.
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
Add a bottom sheet dialog that lets users choose which metadata field
groups to update during bulk re-enrich (cover, lyrics, album/album
artist, track/disc number, date/ISRC, genre/label/copyright).
Backend (Go):
- Filter FLAC Metadata struct and FFmpeg metadata map by selected
update_fields so non-selected groups preserve existing file values
- Guard Deezer extended metadata fetch with shouldUpdateField(extra)
- Title/Artist are never overwritten by re-enrich (search keys only)
- enrichedMeta response only includes selected field groups
Frontend (Dart):
- New re_enrich_field_dialog.dart bottom sheet with checkboxes
- FFmpegService embed methods gain preserveMetadata param that uses
-map_metadata 0 instead of -1 to preserve non-selected tags
- Hide selection overlay/bar before showing dialog, restore on cancel
- Fix setState-after-dispose guard in cancel branches
Cleanup:
- Remove dead code in library_tracks_folder_screen.dart
- Fix use_build_context_synchronously in main_shell.dart
- Suppress false-positive use_null_aware_elements lints
- Update l10n label from 'Title, Artist, Album' to 'Album, Album Artist'
Show a play IconButton (matching local album style) next to the
more-options button when a track has a local file available.
Uses PlaybackController.playTrackList to resolve and open the file.
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.

initialising _wasSuccess from initial widget state
- Remove orphan Hero tag in search_screen that had no matching pair
- Chip borderRadius updated from 8 to 20 for consistency
- 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
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)
- Migrate MainActivity from AudioServiceFragmentActivity to
FlutterFragmentActivity
- Migrate Qobuz to MusicDL API
- Update changelog with v3.7.0 rollback explanation
- Add configurable SongLink region (userCountry) setting with picker UI
- Pass songLinkRegion through download request payload to Go backend
- Go backend: thread-safe global SongLink region with per-request override
- Fix downloaded track not recognized in collection tap: add findByTrackAndArtist
fallback in download history lookup chain (Spotify ID → ISRC → name+artist)
- Apply same name+artist fallback to isDownloaded check in track options sheet
- Add missing library_database.dart import for LocalLibraryItem
- Add multi-select support to library_tracks_folder_screen (wishlist, loved,
playlist) with long-press to enter selection mode, animated bottom bar with
batch remove/download/add-to-playlist actions, and PopScope exit handling
- Create batch showAddTracksToPlaylistSheet in playlist_picker_sheet with
playlist thumbnail widget and cover image support
- Add playlist grid selection tint overlay in queue_tab
- Optimize collection lookups with pre-built _allPlaylistTrackKeys index and
isTrackInAnyPlaylist/hasPlaylistTracks accessors
- Eagerly initialize localLibraryProvider and libraryCollectionsProvider
- Enable SQLite WAL mode and PRAGMA synchronous=NORMAL across all databases
- Go backend: duplicate SAF output FDs before provider attempts to prevent
fdsan abort on fallback retries; close detached FDs after download completes
- Go backend: rewrite compatibilityTransport to try HTTPS first and only
fallback to HTTP on transport-level failures, preventing redirect loops
- Go backend: enforce HTTPS-only for extension sandbox HTTP clients
- Replace SharedPreferences with SQLite (AppStateDatabase, LibraryCollectionsDatabase) for download queue, library collections, and recent access history
- Add Set-based O(1) track containment checks for wishlist, loved, and playlist tracks
- Add batch addTracksToPlaylist with PlaylistAddBatchResult
- Go backend: strict mode locks download to selected provider when auto fallback is off
- Go backend: fix extension progress normalization (percent/100) and lifecycle tracking
- Go backend: case-insensitive provider ID matching throughout fallback chain
- Lyrics embedding now respects lyricsMode setting (embed/both/off)
- Debounced queue persistence to reduce write frequency
- Fix shouldUseFallback logic to not be gated by useExtensions
