With "Partially Watched Videos" set to Ask, opening a live stream showed
the resume sheet with a playback timestamp. A live position is relative
to the live edge, not a fixed timeline, so it is meaningless as a
playhead.
Live views are still recorded in history, but carry no resume position:
- WatchEntry gains a persisted isLive flag plus recordLiveWatch(), which
stores no position and clears state a drifting HLS duration may have
left behind. progress is always 0 and toVideo() propagates the flag so
history rows render the LIVE badge.
- from(video:) clamps duration, keeping Piped's -1 live sentinel out of
storage.
- DataManager routes live saves through recordLiveWatch() and clears the
flag on the non-live path (before updateProgress, so the auto-finish
check is not suppressed by the hard-0 live progress), letting an entry
heal once the stream becomes a VOD.
- PlayerService skips completion saves, always starts at the live edge,
and drops any startTime passed for a live video.
- The resume prompt, the "Continue at" button label, thumbnail progress
bars, "X remaining", Continue Watching and tvOS Top Shelf all exclude
live entries.
- CloudKit syncs isLive with the rest of the watch state: the conflict
resolver carries it with watchedSeconds/isFinished and the sync engine
applies it when merging into an existing entry. It is read leniently,
so the schema version stays at 2 and older clients keep parsing these
records.
iOS 27 changes the default scroll edge effect style to hard, which
draws a sharp cutoff line over the channel banner and video info
gradient extending under the toolbar.
Views without an explicit background sat on the translucent window
material, which picks up a wallpaper tint (bluish in dark mode) and
clashed with views drawing windowBackgroundColor, making the video
info header gradient fade visibly mismatch. Add opaqueWindowBackground()
and apply it centrally in NavigationDestinationHandlerModifier to both
stack roots and pushed destinations, plus VideoInfoView for
presentations outside navigation stacks.

Add a Custom swatch to the appearance settings accent color grid,
backed by a hex value stored in settings (synced via iCloud like the
rest). iOS uses the native ColorPicker wheel; macOS uses a circular
swatch that opens NSColorPanel, since the SwiftUI color well looks out
of place among the circles. All accent consumers now read the resolved
color through SettingsManager.resolvedAccentColor.
The indigo preset is retired from the grid but kept in the enum, so
users who selected it keep their color until they pick another one.

Sheet dismiss buttons rendered as an iOS-style circular glass "X" on
macOS 26, which looks foreign on the desktop. Add a shared
sheetCloseToolbarItem helper that renders a native text "Close" button
on macOS while keeping the compact icon-only xmark on iOS/tvOS, and
replace the ~14 duplicated inline close buttons across sheets with it.
The sheet collapsed to an empty strip because a List inside a sheet
has no intrinsic height on macOS. Add an explicit minimum frame like
other sheets, gate presentationDetents to iOS, and replace the
prominent xmark toolbar button with a native Close button on macOS.
Proxied thumbnail URLs from Invidious/Piped/Yattee server expire over
time. Two paths were left holding stale URLs: the Video Info carousel
kept the original list copy even after fresh details arrived, and
downloaded videos rendered from the remote URL snapshot taken at
download time while the local thumbnail on disk was ignored.
Evict stale URLs from the Nuke cache when fresh video details load,
pass the fresh details through to the videoCard thumbnail, and resolve
downloads' thumbnails from the local file when localThumbnailPath is
set.
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.
The right column is already dedicated to video info so the "Description"
label is redundant. Add an opt-out `showsHeader` parameter to
`TVScrollableDescription` (default true) and pass false from
`VideoInfoView`; the player overlay and channel view keep the header.
Reworks VideoInfoView on tvOS into a persistent 30% left sidebar
(thumbnail, title, channel, Play / Add to Playlist / Bookmark) with a
scrollable right pane for description, stats, comments, related, and
watch history. Reuses the player's TVScrollableDescription (refactored
to self-manage focus) so the description supports click-to-lock
scrolling, and the outer ScrollView is disabled while locked. Comments
full-screen on tvOS, with commenter avatars no longer tappable and
accent-colored link text replaced with the default foreground.
Extract shared TimeInterval.formattedAsTimestamp replacing 8 identical
formatTime/formattedTime implementations across player views. Remove
unused currentTime parameter from GestureSeekPreviewView. Consolidate
duplicated geometry math in MacOSControlBar into seekPreviewPosition().
On tvOS, ContentUnavailableView inside a Group doesn't expand to fill
available space — it sizes to content and aligns top-leading. Add
.frame(maxWidth: .infinity, maxHeight: .infinity) to all instances
so they center correctly in their parent containers.
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
