M4A files store the iTunSMPB value behind a 16-byte binary 'data' atom
header. The previous parser took bytes directly after the ASCII key,
landing in the binary header and producing a corrupted parts array
(total_valid=348 instead of ~13M samples), which caused take_duration
to exhaust the source in ~8ms — silent no-playback.
Fix: search for the " 00000000 " sentinel within 128 bytes of the key
to locate the actual value string, falling back to the old offset for
ID3v2/MP3 files where no binary header exists.
Also patches symphonia-format-isomp4 (local crate under patches/) to:
- Tolerate SL descriptor predefined=0x01 (older iTunes M4A)
- Convert descriptor.unwrap() panic to a proper decode error
- Gracefully skip malformed trak atoms (e.g. MJPEG cover-art streams)
instead of failing the entire probe

Add 'alac' to symphonia features. Combined with the existing 'aac' and
'isomp4' features this enables native lossless decoding of Apple Lossless
Audio Codec (.m4a/ALAC) and AAC-LC files without server-side transcoding.
Symphonia probes the format from the stream bytes, so no URL or hint
changes are needed for server streams.

Remove tauri-plugin-updater, relaunch_after_update command, generate-update-
manifest.js, the generate-manifest CI job, and all signing/upload steps for
.sig files and latest.json. The updater plugin, its pubkey and endpoint config
in tauri.conf.json, and the updater:default capability are all gone.
Replace AppUpdater.tsx with a lightweight component that:
- Fetches https://api.github.com/repos/Psychotoxical/psysonic/releases/latest
after a 4 s delay (no install, no download, no progress bar)
- Shows a dismissible toast with two buttons:
GitHub → releases/latest
Website → https://psysonic.psychotoxic.eu/#downloads
i18n: remove updaterInstall/Downloading/Installing/Download/ExperimentalHint
keys from all 7 locales; add updaterWebsite; update updaterVersion wording.
CI: remove generate-manifest job and all .sig signing/upload steps from
build-macos-windows. Also remove TAURI_SIGNING_PRIVATE_KEY env vars (no
longer needed). Release now just builds and uploads the installable binaries.

CSS: remove `font-weight` from transition list on `.fs-lyric-line` — it
triggers layout reflow on every animation frame when the active line changes.
Replaced with `transform: scaleX(1.015)` on `.fsl-active` (compositor-only).
Added `contain: layout style` to `.fs-lyrics-overlay` to isolate reflows.
Cargo.lock: update for thread-priority crate (added in previous audio commit).
CI: replace delete-asset workaround with `updaterJsonKeepUniversal: false`
to prevent tauri-action from uploading a latest.json with wrong signature.

Fetches album artwork from the iTunes Search API and passes the URL
directly to Discord's large_image field. Subsonic cover URLs require
auth and can't be used by Discord directly.
- 3-strategy search: exact quoted → relaxed → track title fallback
- 1-hour in-memory cache per artist|album key
- iTunes search runs in tokio::task::spawn_blocking (reqwest::blocking
must not run on the Tokio async executor)
- artwork_cache wrapped in Arc<Mutex<...>> for cross-thread sharing
- Fallback to the pre-uploaded "psysonic" asset when no match found
- Cargo.toml: blocking feature alongside rustls-tls

The native-tls backend (macOS Security framework) was failing with
'bad protocol version' when connecting to HTTPS music servers.
Switching to rustls (statically linked, no system dependency) fixes
playback on macOS and ensures consistent TLS 1.2/1.3 support across
all platforms.

Incorporates PRs #38 (nisarg-78), #42#43#44 (JulianNymark) with fixes:
Audio / Playback
- Artist Radio starts immediately from fast getTopSongs (local library);
getSimilarSongs2 (Last.fm) enriches queue in background — no more wait
- Fix seek audio glitch: EqualPowerFadeIn only resets to zero-gain on
seeks to track start (<100 ms); all other seeks resume at unity gain
- OGG/Vorbis container support via symphonia-format-ogg (PR #42)
- Human-readable audio error messages in SizedDecoder (PR #44)
- Audio playback errors shown as themed toast notifications (PR #43)
Queue / Radio
- Infinite Queue: proactive load of 5 tracks (was 25) when ≤2 remain
- Radio: proactive reload at ≤2 remaining tracks, independent of
Infinite Queue setting — radio no longer stops at last track
- Fix: clicking Start Radio multiple times no longer stacks duplicates
- Fix: Start Radio on artist keeps current song playing
- Manual tracks always appear before Radio, Radio before Auto-added
- Queue separators: "— Radio —" and "— Auto —" dividers
- Fix: radio proactive load now works even when songs lack artistId
(uses currentRadioArtistId module var as fallback)
UI / UX
- Click synced lyrics lines to seek (PR #38)
- Volume scroll wheel on volume slider (PR #38)
- Lyrics: active / completed / upcoming visual states (PR #38)
- Shared toast utility (src/utils/toast.ts) replaces inline toast fn
- Auto-updater: relaunch_after_update Rust command exits first to
release single-instance lock before spawning new process
About / Credits
- nisarg-78 and JulianNymark added to contributors (since v1.29.0)
- netherguy4 added as Special Thanks for feature ideas and feedback
- i18n: aboutSpecialThanksLabel in all 5 languages

- fix: Radio from context menu passed artist name as ID to getSimilarSongs2 (closes#29)
- fix: CI Windows NSIS upload — tauri-action no longer searches missing bundle/msi/
- fix: Linux/AUR ring linker error — use cc instead of rust-lld via .cargo/config.toml

Background of Hero carousel, Album Detail and Playlist Detail was
flickering for up to 20 seconds on first visit. useCachedUrl with
fallbackToFetch=true returned the raw server URL immediately, causing
a double render — once with the HTTP URL and again when the blob was
ready. Fixed by passing fallbackToFetch=false in all three locations.

### Changed
- buildStreamUrl: removed unused suffix parameter
