* feat(covers): race sibling downscale vs fetch, search thumb priorities
Run getCoverArt and client downscale in parallel when another size of the
same cover is cached; first successful result wins and aborts the other path.
Await both branches so inflight bookkeeping does not detach early.
Extend the cover cache size roster so provisional siblings resolve for sizes
used in the UI (e.g. 400/600/800, 48/96).
CachedImage: fetchQueueBias for live/mobile search (artist thumbnails ahead of
albums in fetch-slot ordering); configurable observeRootMargin with a wider
default to prepare priority slightly before elements enter view.
Mobile search adds round artist-thumb styling; add shared cover blob downscale
helper.
* perf(image-cache): batch sibling IDB reads and guard cover size registry
Use one read transaction when probing IndexedDB for sibling cover keys.
Extract COVER_ART_REGISTERED_SIZES and add Vitest coverage so every literal
coverArtCacheKey(_, size) in src stays aligned with sibling invalidation.
Honor AbortSignal during JPEG encode in downscaleCoverBlob.
* Enhance CachedImage and ArtistDetail components with improved image caching and priority handling
- Refactor CachedImage to utilize a priority system for image loading based on viewport visibility, improving performance during scrolling.
- Update useCachedUrl to accept an optional getPriority function for better cache management.
- Optimize ArtistDetail and Artists components by using useMemo for cover art URLs, reducing redundant calculations and improving rendering efficiency.
- Adjust image loading logic in CachedImage to ensure smoother transitions and avoid unnecessary fetch requests.
* perf(ui): unblock IDB cover art, stabilize mainstage rails and virtual lists
Let IndexedDB reads bypass the network concurrency slot so cached thumbnails
paint without queueing behind remote fetches; debounce disk eviction during
heavy scrolling.
Fix mainstage horizontal rails: dedupe album/song ids for React keys, widen
artwork budget overscan, avoid resetting the budget on list append, and raise
Home initial artwork budgets. CachedImage treats already-decoded images as
loaded; rail cards load cover images eagerly.
Refresh dynamic color extraction and extend virtual scrolling / scroll roots on
Albums, Artists, Playlists, and related surfaces.
Remove local agent-only commit instructions from the repository tree.
* perf(virtual): viewport-based overscan for main scroll lists
Drive TanStack Virtual overscan from measured scroll height so each list
renders about one screen of extra rows above and below the viewport for
snappier scrolling on Albums, Artists (list mode), and Tracks virtual song list.
Introduce useResizeClientHeight helpers (ID + ref) for ResizeObserver-based
clientHeight tracking.
* docs(changelog): note PR #468 UI cover cache, rails, and virtual lists
Add a coarse summary under 1.46.0 Changed for cover-art pipeline,
mainstage rails, viewport-based overscan, and library/chrome polish.
* feat(ui): unify queue toggle handle behavior
Show the queue toggle in the header when the queue is collapsed and use a seam-aligned drag handle when it is open. Hide the seam handle while the main content is actively scrolling to reduce accidental interactions.
* feat(ui): add adaptive header search collapse behavior
Collapse header search to a magnifier when top controls get crowded and expand it as an overlay only while active. Use measured header space with hysteresis to avoid flicker and keep neighboring controls stable.
* chore(ui): remove leftover search prototype artifacts
Drop an unused icon import from live search and remove an unused header container-type rule left from an earlier layout experiment.
* feat(ui): persist sidebar and queue visibility state
Save left sidebar collapse and right queue open/closed visibility in local storage helpers so both panel modes are restored after app restart.
* feat(ui): unify player overflow menu behavior
Use a single overflow menu for click and wheel interactions, with a volume-only mode that keeps the same layout and volume controls as the full menu.
* feat(ui): add wheel seek controls to waveform
Apply 10-second wheel seek steps with trailing 1-second debounce and keep the waveform preview stable so the playhead moves smoothly during rapid scroll input.
* fix(now-playing): stabilize narrow dashboard layout
Switch now-playing responsiveness to container-based breakpoints and prevent stacked widgets from overlapping when width is constrained.
* fix(search): reduce collapse jitter and avoid header overlap
Add a short collapse-state cooldown to prevent threshold flicker and hide conflicting header controls while collapsed search expands as an overlay.
* fix(i18n): localize player overflow controls across locales
Replace hardcoded player overflow labels with translation keys and add the missing keys for all shipped locale files.
* fix(search): keep advanced control clickable in collapsed mode
Prevent focus loss on the advanced search button in collapsed overlay mode so its click handler consistently runs.
* fix(i18n): restore queue translation in offline library
Use the existing queue.appendToQueue key for the offline enqueue button tooltip and label instead of a missing key and hardcoded English text.
* fix(ui): apply overlay scrollbar to right-panel text tabs
Switch now-playing content, lyrics, and info panes to OverlayScrollArea and harden tour-item layout so long concert metadata stays within panel bounds.
* fix(ui): add unread indicator for new releases and guard sidebar drag clicks
Track unread new-release IDs per server/library scope and clear the badge when opening the New Releases page. Also prevent click-through navigation after sidebar drag release and keep related i18n/responsive sidebar-adjacent refinements in this snapshot.
* fix(ui): stabilize live dropdown layering and unread reset flow
Render the topbar Live dropdown via a portal so it consistently overlays sidebar layers. Rework new-releases unread tracking to handle library scope baselines, ignore stale refresh races, and mark items as seen after a 5-second stay on the New Releases page.
* feat(ui): add localized New badges for recently added albums
Show a theme-consistent New badge on album cards and album detail for albums created within the last 48 hours. Localize the badge label across all supported locales and centralize recency logic in a shared utility to avoid duplication.
* fix(album): prevent tracklist jump when entering multiselect
Move bulk selection actions from the tracklist body into the album toolbar next to the track filter. Keep selection controls stable in the header area so enabling multiselect no longer shifts the tracklist content downward.
* fix(tray): add playback-state badge and finalize queue handle tooltip
Show play/pause/stop icons in the Linux tray now-playing entry and persist state safely in Tauri managed state.
Also switch the queue-resize handle tooltip to the dedicated localized key across all locales.
* fix(header): prioritize search collapse before Live/Orbit labels
Make topbar compression deterministic by collapsing search first and compacting Live/Orbit labels only in sustained low-space mode.
Add sticky hysteresis-based header compact state to prevent oscillation while resizing.
* fix(ui): stabilize header compaction and show tray state icons
Prevent topbar flicker in the narrow-width range by tightening compact-mode thresholds, gating on real overflow, and removing width transitions from live search.
Also include playback state icons in tray tooltip text across platforms while preserving tooltip length limits.
* fix(tray): keep tooltip iconization Windows-only
Revert Linux tray tooltip/title fallback attempts and keep state icons only in Windows tray tooltips, while Linux continues to show playback state in the now-playing menu entry.
* fix(ui): restore queue resize response after overlay scroll interactions
Hide the queue handle while scrolling on both the main route viewport and the now-playing viewport, and clear stale thumb-drag state before starting queue resize.
Also ignore inactive/faded overlay thumbs in resizer suppression so horizontal pointer transitions no longer leave the queue seam unresponsive.
* docs(changelog): summarize ui-refinements branch features
Document the branch-level feature additions in 1.45.0 as separate changelog sections and group remaining branch-local fixes under a single polish entry.
* docs(changelog): add PR #397 references for ui-refinements
Attach PR metadata to the new 1.45.0 ui-refinement sections and the polish entry so release notes map directly to the merged branch discussion.
Mirrors what PR #298 did for songs in the live-search dropdown:
both artist and album rows now respond to right-click with the
matching context menu (type 'artist' / 'album'), and pick up the
.context-active highlight while their menu is open. Click-to-navigate
behaviour is unchanged.

Two coupled UX fixes around the header live search and the global context
menu, born from the same testing pass.
LiveSearch / MobileSearchOverlay
- Single click on a song no longer calls playTrack(track) without a
queue argument. The store fell back to the existing queue, didn't
find the new track, and ended up playing something the user couldn't
navigate or see in the queue list — the player header showed metadata
but the queue itself didn't contain it.
- New behaviour: enqueue([track]) + "Added to queue" toast. Whatever was
playing keeps playing; the new track lands at the bottom and is
visible/navigable. Mobile gets the same behaviour (tap-only).
- Desktop also gets a right-click context menu on song rows for users
who want immediate playback or different routing (Play Now, Play Next,
Add to Playlist, etc.). The dropdown stays open while the CM is up,
and the row picks up the .context-active highlight so the user can
see which song the menu refers to.
ContextMenu
- Removed the transparent fullscreen backdrop (z-index 998) that
previously caught outside clicks. It also blocked right-clicks from
reaching elements *underneath* it — so right-clicking a different
song row to reposition the menu hit the backdrop instead, closed the
menu, and never opened a new one for the row the user actually
pointed at.
- Replaced with a document-level mousedown listener (gated on
`contextMenu.isOpen`) that closes the menu when the click lands
outside `menuRef`. Standard outside-click pattern, doesn't occlude
the underlying UI, and right-clicking another row now naturally
pivots the CM to that row.
i18n: new search.addedToQueueToast key in 8 locales.

The sidebar LiveSearch and mobile search overlay rendered cover thumbs via
raw <img src={buildCoverArtUrl(...)}> instead of going through the
IndexedDB-backed CachedImage path used everywhere else in the app.
buildCoverArtUrl() mints a fresh URL on every call (random salt + a new
MD5 token per Subsonic spec), so the browser cache was permanently
defeated for these thumbs — every re-render of the dropdown produced
new URLs and the browser dispatched HTTP requests for every "new"
image.
While typing in the search field this multiplied: each keystroke
triggered a re-render with fresh URLs for every visible cover, and
after the 300 ms debounce a fresh search() result triggered another
wave. Five visible album thumbs × five keystrokes ≈ 50 redundant cover
fetches in 1.5 s, manifesting as periodic typing delays.
Switch all three call sites to CachedImage with the stable
coverArtCacheKey() — same pattern CLAUDE.md explicitly recommends:
buildCoverArtUrl() generates a new ephemeral URL every call —
browser cache is useless. Use coverArtCacheKey(id, size) +
CachedImage for <img> tags.
Confirmed locally: typing in the search field is noticeably smoother.

- Revert _msg → msg in DecodeError match arm; the variable is used in the
debug_assertions eprintln! block so the underscore prefix caused a compile error
- Replace SlidersHorizontal with SlidersVertical (lucide-react) in PlayerBar,
LiveSearch, and AdvancedSearch so the EQ/filter icon shows vertical bars

Apply musicFolderId across Subsonic requests, bump a filter version so library views reload, and add a fixed-position sidebar dropdown (with capped height when there are many folders).
Replay gain was not working because track objects were created manually without
including replay gain metadata from the Subsonic API response.
Changes:
- Add songToTrack() helper function to properly map SubsonicSong to Track with
replayGainTrackDb, replayGainAlbumDb, and replayGainPeak fields
- Add audio_update_replay_gain Tauri command for dynamic volume recalculation
when replay gain settings change mid-playback
- Add updateReplayGainForCurrentTrack() to recalculate volume when toggling
replay gain setting
- Fetch fresh track data on cold resume (app relaunch) to ensure replay gain
values are current from server
- Update all files that create track objects to use songToTrack()
Fixes issue where toggling replay gain ON/OFF or changing between track/album
mode had no effect on currently playing or newly played tracks.
### Audio Engine
- Replace Howler.js with native Rust/rodio backend (src-tauri/src/audio.rs)
- audio_play/pause/resume/stop/seek/set_volume Tauri commands
- Generation counter cancels stale in-flight downloads on skip
- Wall-clock position tracking; audio:ended after 2 ticks near end
### Playback Persistence
- Persist currentTrack, queue, queueIndex, currentTime to localStorage
- Cold-start resume: play + seek to saved position on app restart
- Position priority: server queue > localStorage
### Random Mix
- Genre blacklist: excludeAudiobooks toggle + custom chip-based blacklist
- Clickable genre chips in tracklist to blacklist on the fly
- Super Genre Mix: 9 genres, progressive rendering, Load 10 more
- Promise.allSettled + 45s timeout for large Metal/Rock libraries
- Two-column filter panel at top of page
### Queue & UI
- Shuffle button in queue header (Fisher-Yates, keeps current track at 0)
- LiveSearch arrow key / Enter / Escape keyboard navigation
- Multi-line tooltip support (data-tooltip-wrap attribute)
- Update link uses Tauri shell open() to launch system browser
- Sidebar min-width 180px → 200px (fixes Psysonic title clipping)
- Tooltip z-index fix: main-content z-index:1 over queue panel

- Add full search results page (/search?q=) with artist, album, song sections
- Fix search results column alignment (fixed-width Format column eliminates per-grid auto-sizing variance)
- Remove experimental gapless playback (caused song skipping and beginning cutoffs)
- Add known limitations to README and CHANGELOG (seeking, DnD reliability)
- Update GitHub Actions to Node.js 24 (checkout@v5, setup-node@v5)
- Add align-items: center to tracklist-header CSS
