Downloads bypass stream selection and reach play() as ready-made local
file streams, so audio mode never affected them. Apply the mode at that
choke point instead: swap a local video stream for the separately
downloaded audio track, or play a muxed file with the video track
disabled (vid set per-load in MPVClient, never toggled live). The
transform is bidirectional so stored audio-only queue/history entries
restore full video when the mode is off, and setAudioMode now reloads
downloaded content at the current position in both directions.
Persistent per-platform mode that plays only the audio track to save
bandwidth and speed up loads. When enabled, stream selection picks the
best audio-only stream (preferred language, codec, bitrate) and never
fetches the video URL; toggling mid-video reloads at the current
position using the quality-switch path (live vid=no toggling is avoided
due to A/V desync).
- Toggle row in the player quality/settings sheet on iOS, macOS and
tvOS, next to lock controls
- New audioMode control button type (red when active) for player
controls and mini player layouts
- Picking a video quality explicitly turns the mode off; audio track
picks keep it on and now work while audio-only is playing
- Stream URL refresh preserves audio-only playback instead of
resurrecting video
- Queue preloads and history entries resolved before a toggle are
discarded so selection re-runs with the current mode
- tvOS player shows the video thumbnail instead of a black screen
during audio-only playback
- PiP button hidden for audio-only streams
Playback menu seek items now follow the durations from the active player
controls preset instead of hardcoded 10s/30s labels. AppEnvironment caches
the active preset's center settings (refreshed on preset change
notifications) so menu commands can read them synchronously.
Add secondary seek durations (default 30s) to CenterSectionSettings,
configurable on macOS in Seek Durations settings, used by Shift+arrows in
the player and Cmd+Shift+arrows in the Playback menu.
Also let Cmd-based key equivalents pass through the player keyboard
monitor so menu shortcuts (e.g. Cmd+Option+arrow previous/next video)
work while the player window has focus, and unify macOS built-in preset
primary seek at 10s to match iOS/tvOS (built-in presets version 8).
Rename the macOS "Control Bar Buttons" settings entry to "Control Bar"
and add an Auto/Light/Dark glass background picker on that page. The
choice is stored per-preset as GlobalLayoutSettings.controlBarTheme and
forces the bar's glass color scheme via glassBackground(colorScheme:).
Render the macOS control bar button row and top bar from the active
preset's sections via a new MacOSControlsSectionRenderer, replacing the
hardcoded QuickTime-style rows in MacOSControlBar. Add a keepOnTop
button type and macOS-specific button availability lists, and adapt the
player controls settings editors (preset editor, section editor, button
configuration) for macOS.
Also apply the preset font style to the control bar time labels, and
update the built-in macOS Default preset order (queue before transport,
fullscreen at the end), bumping builtInPresetsVersion to 7.
Surface audio-delay (±10/±100 ms) and video-sync-mode controls behind an
"A/V Sync" navigation row in Advanced settings rather than inline, keeping the
Advanced page uncluttered. Audio delay applies live to the running MPV
instance; sync mode takes effect on next playback.
YouTube's CDN advertises maxres/sddefault thumbnails for every video but
only generates them for sufficiently high-res uploads, so older/low-res
videos return 404 for those qualities. The view picked the best quality
and showed a blank placeholder on failure with no fallback.
VideoThumbnailView now accepts an ordered fallback chain and advances to
the next candidate via NukeUI's onCompletion when a load fails, so a valid
thumbnail is always shown. DeArrowVideoThumbnail feeds it DeArrow branding
first, then the video's own thumbnails best-quality-first.
Render subscriber count, Subscribe button, and (for subscribed
channels) description in the tvOS loading state instead of just
avatar + name + spinner. Seed the in-memory author cache when
navigating to a channel from a video so the first-time channel
view has a name and avatar to display immediately.
After iOS reinstall/restore the app container UUID rotates, which left both
the persisted source.url and the security-scoped bookmark pointing at a
no-longer-current path. Files derived a stale absolute path that got appended
onto the resolved bookmark, producing doubled URLs that MPV could not load.
- Resolve the base URL by picking whichever of the bookmark or source.url
actually exists on disk.
- Compute MediaFile relative paths against the resolved root so they survive
later container changes.
- Hold the security-scoped resource access for the source's lifetime via a
shared resolver, so MPV can open files long after the directory enumeration
that resolved the bookmark has returned.
- Normalize legacy absolute paths embedded in old recents/history video IDs
so they re-resolve under the current container.
Piped's session token reuses the Authorization header, so a fronting basic
auth proxy can't coexist with logged-in Piped use — the two would clobber
each other's credentials on every authenticated request.
Add a supportsHTTPBasicAuthProxy capability on Instance/InstanceType (false
for Piped, true for everything else) and route it through:
- AddRemoteServerView refuses Piped if detection only succeeded behind basic
auth, surfacing a localized "not supported" error instead of a silently
broken instance, and hides the optional credentials section for Piped.
- EditSourceView hides the basic auth fields for Piped instances and clears
any legacy stored credentials on save, in case a Piped source was added
with credentials before this change.
The Sources -> Edit Source -> Proxy toggle now renders for Yattee
Server entries (supportsVideoProxying gains .yatteeServer). When the
toggle is on, playback fetches go through
videoWithProxyStreamsAndCaptionsAndStoryboards with mode .relay, so
the server returns signed /proxy/relay URLs (byte-relay, supports
HTTP Range, no on-disk caching). Downloads keep going through mode
.download so the server-side /proxy/fast/ flow continues to cache
files for repeat use.
InvidiousAPI.proxyStreamsIfNeeded early-returns for .yatteeServer
since proxying is now done at fetch time via ?proxy=true rather than
client-side host rewriting.
Remove the gear toolbar button that opened Settings as a sheet in the
NavigationSplitView sidebar column, and drop the macOS guard hiding
.settings from SidebarMainItem so it can be added to the sidebar and
rendered in the detail column like other items. The dedicated Settings
window (Cmd+,) is unchanged.
Exposes ContinueWatchingView as an opt-in compact tab bar item,
hidden by default. Uses a short "Continue" label since the full
"Continue Watching" string does not fit as a tab bar title.
Playable files in the media source browser now honor tvOSVideoTapAction
on tvOS and thumbnailTapAction/textAreaTapAction on iOS/macOS, matching
other video lists. When openInfo navigates to VideoInfoView, playback
routes through QueueManager.playFromMediaBrowser so stream and caption
resolution keep working for Samba/WebDAV files.
yattee-server returns direct YouTube CDN URLs in the storyboard `url`
and `templateUrl` fields instead of an Invidious-style VTT proxy path.
Two resulting issues:
- `Storyboard.directSheetURL` was replacing the whole `M$M` token with
just the index, producing `.../0.jpg` (404) instead of `.../M0.jpg`.
Replace `M$M` with `M\(index)` to preserve the literal `M` prefix;
matching the full token also avoids clobbering `$M` sequences that
may appear in `sigh=rs$...` query params.
- The download code fetched `proxyUrl` as if it were a WebVTT file;
with yattee-server that downloads a JPEG that fails UTF-8 parsing.
Skip the VTT round-trip when `proxyUrl` obviously points at an image.
Also align the on-disk filename with the local-playback template
(`sb_M$M.jpg` → `sb_M{N}.jpg`) so offline seek-bar previews resolve,
and add [Storyboard] debug logs at each decision point so future
failures can be diagnosed without guessing.
After disabling home shortcuts on tvOS, Open URL and Remote Control had
no entry point. Add them as configurable sidebar main items. Remote
Control defaults to visible on tvOS; Open URL defaults to hidden on all
platforms.
Preserve user:pass credentials in instance URLs so Invidious instances
behind nginx reverse proxies with HTTP basic auth work correctly (#926).
Add displayURL property to mask credentials in the UI.
Adds a "Proxy videos" toggle in instance settings that routes video
streams through the instance instead of connecting directly to YouTube
CDN. Includes auto-detection of 403 blocks and live re-application of
proxy settings without requiring app restart or video reload.
The filter strip was passing the Invidious instance URL as serverURL to
AvatarURLBuilder, which built a Yattee Server-style /avatar/ path that
doesn't exist on Invidious. Now passes the actual Yattee Server URL
(matching SubscriptionsView pattern) and enriches channels from
CachedChannelData as a fallback when the API doesn't return thumbnails.
Back the in-memory authorCache with a JSON file in ~/Library/Caches/AuthorCache/.
Disk is lazy-loaded on first lookup and saved asynchronously on each cache update.
Capped at 500 entries to prevent unbounded growth.
- Cache author data from video detail API responses (PlayerService, VideoInfoView)
- Replace ChannelView's private CachedChannelHeader with shared CachedChannelData
- Enrich author with cached avatar/subscriber count in VideoChannelRow, TVDetailsPanel, VideoInfoView
