Resolve integrated loudness from SQLite only at decode bind; keep pre-trim
until a row exists, then allow provisional gain from live updates. Pass
DB-stable hints from the web app into play and gapless preload.
Default pre-measurement attenuation -4.5 dB with an icon reset in Settings;
drop redundant normalization copy and shorten pre-trim descriptions.
analysis_cache seed_from_bytes returns an outcome and skips redundant
waveform work on cache hits; wire callers and related frontend/backend glue.
Improve seekbar fallback behavior by using consistent bar-based rendering and smoother transitions to analyzed waveform data. Reduce hot-path analysis overhead during ranged streaming and add controls to clear cached waveform entries.
- Add Tauri command to delete loudness_cache rows for a track and helpers in AnalysisCache.
- Queue tech strip: click dB to reseed loudness; LUFS target picker via body portal; metric styling aligned with strip (no link chrome).
- Player store: reseed clears local cache and replays analysis seed; show loudness dB from SQLite cache when live state is still null; allow first numeric normalization-state update through the short duplicate filter.
- audio_update_replay_gain: resolve loudness from the requested gain when playback URL is not pinned yet.
Improve normalization consistency by separating cache refresh for non-playing tracks, hardening track-id cache lookups, and keeping UI gain state aligned with actual playback. Also reduce startup stalls by preferring non-seekable streaming when format hints are missing and by tuning ALSA/analysis paths to avoid underrun-prone churn.
