An inactive account keeps its credential and syncs like a rename, but
drops out of every picker and cannot be used until activated again.
Deactivating the selected account switches to the local context as a
published choice, so other devices follow instead of falling back.
A login created after the revamp got a random account UUID that never
left the device, so its credential was keyed to an ID no other device
had and the login was unusable there. Migrated accounts were fine only
because their ID is deterministically the instance ID.
Accounts, the permanent legacy-migration markers, the permanent deletion
tombstones and the selected data context now ride the existing
CKSyncEngine as four record types, with the rules the category needs:
- Absence proves nothing. A fetch resumes from a change token and never
enumerates the zone, so deletions are records of their own and they
dominate the account wherever they are seen — including the engine's
retry-as-insert path, which is how a queued offline edit would
otherwise resurrect a deleted account.
- Fetched records are staged durably before each delegate event returns
and applied as a set, tombstones first, gated on the zone's own result
rather than didFetchChanges, which fires after failed fetches too.
- Nothing activates for an identity that has not bootstrapped: a device
left on the previous release consumed these record types as unknown
and advanced its token past them, so each identity fetches the zone
once from a nil token, outside the engine's own token.
- A disabled category defers records rather than discarding them; every
persisted artifact is namespaced by identity, and async work is
generation-checked so a fetch begun under one Apple account can never
land in another's state.
- Uploads are ordered: a marker never outruns the account it describes,
and a context naming an account is never published before that account
is server-confirmed.
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.
Previously CKSyncEngine was created with nil state serialization on
every launch, replaying the entire zone change history (hundreds of
merge/delete log lines and re-downloads each start). Now the saved
state is loaded so launches only fetch changes since the last session.
To make incremental sync safe:
- Clear persisted state once when the record schema version increases,
so records previously skipped as unsupported get re-delivered after
an app update.
- Handle remote zone deletion in fetchedDatabaseChanges by recreating
the zone and re-uploading local data, instead of leaving sync dead.
Account change and manual Refresh Sync still clear the state and force
a full fetch as before.
CloudKitRecordMapper was a standalone actor, so 'await recordMapper.toCKRecord'
from the @MainActor sync engine hopped off the main actor and read live
SwiftData @Model properties (e.g. LocalPlaylistItem.authorName) from the wrong
executor. SwiftData models are bound to the main ModelContext and are not
thread-safe, so this raced the backing store and crashed with EXC_BAD_ACCESS.
Make the mapper @MainActor (it must touch main-isolated models regardless) and
drop the now-redundant awaits. Fixes the crash for all synced model types.
Fixes an EXC_BAD_ACCESS seen in TestFlight build 261.
