SiliSili Native 1.1.0-1.57

Changes since 1.56

In-application mini-player lifecycle

• Changed the in-application mini-player close action to stop the complete shared playback session instead of only detaching the visible compact surface.
• Stopping from the mini-player now stops mpv, releases the shared video texture and direct host, hides the compact player, and returns Cover to its idle logo and tiled-watermark state.
• Cover retains its Sailfish 5.2-compatible lifetime-stable action list while clearing all three action icon sources, so no playback controls remain visible or triggerable after close.
• Removed the obsolete dismissCompactSurface() API to prevent the old hide-without-stop behavior from returning.

Engineering and regression coverage

• Added a focused real-device compact-close probe that loads a real 1080P VOD, requires a live shared texture, reads the current close-button center from runtime geometry, and physically taps it.
• The device result passed 12/12: session_active=0, playing=0, compact=0, cover=idle, actions=0, unchanged PID/start time, clean runtime error scan, and clean rpm -V.
• Revalidated full-surface mini-player dragging with unchanged geometry, no accidental system brightness or media-volume changes, the same process, and clean package verification.
• Updated source gates to require the stop route and post-stop state marker and to reject any reintroduction of dismissCompactSurface.

System controls and interface

• Added persistent small, medium, and large application font-size modes across lists, details, comments, settings, Cover, and player hints.
• Changed player vertical gestures to Sailfish system brightness on the left and system media volume on the right, with the original values saved at playback start and restored after stop, end, or application exit.
• Routed media volume through the Sailfish PulseAudio x-maemo StreamRestore entry, with bounded sink and active-stream fallbacks for devices without that interface.
• Limited brightness and volume gestures to detail, full-screen, PGC, and live players. The movable in-app mini-player no longer intercepts dragging with these gestures.
• Reduced comment body text by one theme size and made two-column video/live lists the default while preserving saved user preferences.

Mini-player and Cover

• Restored full-surface dragging for the in-app mini-player and kept its controls above the drag surface.
• Closing the in-app mini-player now dismisses that surface without silently stopping the shared playback session, allowing Cover state to stay synchronized.
• Made Cover content page-aware: playback details, full player, PGC, live player, and an active Home-page compact player show the live playback Cover; unrelated pages remain on the idle logo and tiled handheld background.
• Kept one Sailfish 5.2-compatible CoverActionList for the process lifetime. Idle state clears all three icon sources in place and guards stale triggers, removing cached controls without breaking later playback actions.
• Fixed the reported Home workflow: video detail -> Home mini-player -> physical background now retains live Cover content and all three actions with the same process and playback session.

Playback policy and stability

• Anonymous VOD and PGC playback now start at real 720P (QN 64); signed-in sessions retain 1080P (QN 80), including cold starts before asynchronous account verification finishes.
• Added a progressive 720P retry when an anonymous DASH response advertises QN 64 but exposes only a 480P representation.
• Removed the redundant delayed foreground refresh pass so media-surface recovery has one owner and one cadence.
• Hardened the droidmedia/minimedia compatibility service against boot-time ABBA races: an atomic startup guard, a settle window, native-service detection, and ordering after droid-hal-init.service prevent duplicate instances.

Engineering and regression coverage

• Added checksum-closed fast deployment, final-state audit, system-control, compact-player, anonymous-quality, minimedia reboot, Cover lifecycle, and deterministic idle-action regression probes.
• Expanded source verification to cover VM build inputs, CMake/qmake alignment, packaging assets, system-control wiring, quality policy, and the single Cover action-list lifetime.
• Final device checks passed with exact RPM transfer SHA, expected NEVRA, clean rpm -V, physical Home-to-background Cover handling, content=playback, actions=3, and one unchanged process. No visual model was used.

SiliSili Native 1.1.0-1.47

Changes:

• UI optimization.

SiliSili Native 1.1.0-1.40

Changes:

• Promote live playback to the same full-screen framebuffer profile as VOD.
• Report decoder, shared-texture and effective video-viewport geometry separately.
• Reject live quality validation when final presentation downscales source pixels.
• Retain full-screen aspect and control layout across VOD/live quality switches.

SiliSili Native 1.1.0-1.35

Changes:

• Unify VOD, PGC and live playback under one persistent playback session while keeping their resolvers and transport semantics separate.
• Add moving live video to both the Sailfish Cover and configurable system PiP presentation without creating a second decoder.
• Cancel stale cross-kind requests and prevent live streams from inheriting VOD seek, speed, history or multipart state.
• Harden hardware frame delivery, frame-stall recovery, startup synchronization and network-transition regression coverage.
• Add device probes for 60-second live playback and live Cover/system-PiP continuity.

SiliSili Native 1.1.0-1.25

Changes:

• Apply a non-zero initial/history position as a paused per-file start option,
  and release audio only after the new file confirms the target clock and the
  first real video texture. This removes audible time-zero playback, initial
  audio-only output and the later visible seek.
• Treat a successfully decoded application-owned hardware texture as codec
  startup progress even while presentation waits for audio-position alignment,
  preventing the first-frame watchdog from forcing a redundant software load.

SiliSili Native 1.1.0-1.24

Changes:

• Keep droidmedia frame callbacks nonblocking by dropping an excess incoming
  output under GUI pressure, preventing Binder transaction buildup from
  freezing video while the separate audio clock continues. Retain consecutive
  queued frames and move queue-sized sliding backpressure to the private demux
  thread so OMX cannot burst past the display queue or lose source cadence.
• Detect a stopped hardware frame serial while audio advances and restart only
  the same-quality video decoder at the retained clock position; keep the
  audio load, shared texture, controls and media-load serial intact.

SiliSili Native 1.1.0-1.23

Changes:

• Bound compressed droidmedia input to 1.5 seconds ahead of the audio clock so
  asynchronous OMX adaptations cannot queue an entire long video, exhaust CMA
  and leave the player stuck in loading.
• Reconcile the internal hardware-to-software load serial, retain pause/seek
  intent during a quality transition, and keep transport controls interactive
  beneath a passive loading indicator.
• Keep the 1200 ms first-frame safety deadline for verified UHD opt-in while
  allowing ordinary 1080P hardware startup 3500 ms before software fallback.
