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.
Closing the player window via its close button left isPlayerCollapsing
stuck true (windowShouldClose has no animation completion to clear it),
so the mini capsule preview kept mounting its render container and
grabbed the shared render view on the next expand - the video rendered
into the 44x26 thumbnail while the player window stayed black.
- Clear isPlayerCollapsing on the next runloop in windowShouldClose
- Give containers in the tracked player window priority to claim the
shared view (even from a visible owner), and refuse steals from the
visible player window by outside containers
- Prefer the largest container in the player window during recovery so
thumbnail-sized surfaces are never picked
- Add a watchdog misplaced-view check in MPVBackend that re-attaches
the render view when it lives outside the visible player window
- Include container bounds and tracked-window flag in attach/decline
logs
In separate-window mode, hide() keeps the ordered-out window's SwiftUI
hierarchy alive (nilling contentViewController crashes AVKit), and its
updateNSView unconditionally re-attached the shared MPVOGLView -
stealing it into a window CoreAnimation never composites. The layer's
silent skip-render fallback then consumed every frame flag, so video
stayed black (climbing vo drops) until app restart.
- Decline stealing the shared view from a visible container into a
non-visible one; owner-initiated transfers bypass the guard
- Only transfer to containers in visible windows or the window still
tracked by ExpandedPlayerWindowManager; park the view otherwise and
reclaim it when a container gains a window
- Log skip-render frame consumption (rate-limited) and track render
health counters (draws/skips/dropped draws)
- Add a watchdog to the playback stats task that detects a stalled
video output and re-attaches the view to a visible container
- Don't mount player layouts during zero-size layout passes
MPVBackend.stop() clears the PiP bridge callbacks on macOS to prevent
crashes during window close, but the backend is reused across videos
and setupPiPIfNeeded is guarded by isPiPSetUp, so the callbacks were
never wired again. The next PiP session then started without notifying
PlayerService (no onPiPStatusChanged), leaving the player window
visible alongside the PiP window, both playing.
Extract the callback wiring into wirePiPBridgeCallbacks() and re-run it
in startPiP() and in setupPiPIfNeeded when already set up.
Switching videos during active PiP left the window at the old video's
size with white space around the new content, for two reasons:
- MPV reports the new video's width and height as separate property
events while the old values are kept across switches, so a transient
mixed size (new width with old height) could reach the PiP capture
path and AVKit sized the window from that frame. Coalesce the PiP
capture-size/aspect update with a short debounce so only settled
dimensions are used.
- On macOS nothing told AVKit about the new aspect: unlike iOS, the
bridge never flushed the sample buffer renderer on an aspect change
during active PiP, and AVKit doesn't resize the macOS PiP window on
its own. Flush the renderer, reset the format description, and
resize the PiP window to the new aspect ratio explicitly.
The expanded player window hidden for PiP is reused on restore, so its
MPVContainerNSView kept a stale weak reference to the shared render view
that the mini player preview had taken during PiP. On restore the mini
preview released the view as an orphan and the reused container skipped
re-attaching it because its guard only compared view identity.
- Skip re-attach in setPlayerView only when the view is still actually
our subview, matching the iOS container's stolen-view handling
- Transfer the shared render view to another living container on unmount
instead of orphaning it, since SwiftUI is not guaranteed to re-run
updateNSView on a hidden window's content after restore
- Force a repaint when restoring the window hidden for PiP; forced draws
requested while ordered out are dropped and the layer is pull-based
Apple TV 4K 1st gen on tvOS 26 crashes to the home screen with a
"blocked by IOFence" gpuEvent at playback start (#949) and stutters
with a starved demuxer cache (#947). Defensive fixes in the shared
iOS/tvOS OpenGL path:
- Drain in-flight GPU work (glFinish) before destroying the
renderbuffer, so a pending presentRenderbuffer fence can't hold the
CAEAGLLayer IOSurface being torn down or reallocated
- Never leave the EAGLContext current on the main thread: framebuffer
create/destroy and the background glFinish now unbind on exit, and
setup no longer binds the context on main at all
- Disable retained backing on tvOS; it exists only for iOS PiP frame
capture and adds per-frame IOSurface fence pressure
- Report swaps to mpv after each present so display-vdrop (the tvOS
default video-sync) gets swap-timing feedback, matching macOS
Add verbose-gated diagnostics for remote triage: playback stats every
10s (cache fill/rate, dropped frames, hwdec, avsync) and a rate-limited
slow-frame warning in performRender.
Addresses #949 and #947
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.
Lets the Apple TV switch its HDMI output to match the playing video's
frame rate and dynamic range via AVDisplayManager.preferredDisplayCriteria,
driven from MPV's container-fps and video-params/gamma. Two opt-in toggles
(default off) live under Playback → Display on tvOS; both are no-ops on
other platforms. Anchor an AVKit class symbol so the linker keeps AVKit
linked — Swift only autolinks AVFoundation here, and without AVKit the
UIWindow.avDisplayManager category isn't loaded at runtime.
Subscribe to mpv log messages and capture END_FILE error code/string so
load failures bubble up specific causes (HTTP 404/403, DNS failure,
demuxer errors) instead of a generic 10s timeout.
