- NowPlaying polling: only active while dropdown is open + respects
Page Visibility API — was firing every 10s unconditionally (~8.6k req/day)
- Connection check interval: 30s → 120s (4× reduction)
- Queue sync debounce: 1.5s → 5s (prevents burst on rapid skip)
- Rating prefetch: add 7-minute in-memory TTL cache for artist/album
ratings — repeated random album loads no longer re-fetch known ratings
Fixes server log flooding reported by users behind reverse proxies (Traefik).

Extracts the most vibrant pixel from an 8×8 downscaled album cover via
the Canvas API and applies it as --dynamic-fs-accent on the .fs-player
root element. All accent-colored FS player elements use
var(--dynamic-fs-accent, var(--accent)) as fallback so the theme accent
is restored automatically when the FS player closes.
Elements updated:
- .fs-track-title (color + text-shadow)
- .fs-btn.active, .fs-btn-heart.active/:hover
- .fs-btn-play and :hover (background + box-shadow)
- .fs-seekbar-played (background + box-shadow)
- .fs-mesh-blob-a/-b (radial-gradient via color-mix at 14%/8% opacity)
- .fs-art-wrap box-shadow glow (color-mix at 70% opacity)
- MicVocal lyrics-toggle inline style
Color safety: WCAG 4.5:1 contrast against near-black FS background
enforced by progressively lightening in HSL space (ensureContrast).
Pure math functions unit-tested with vitest (28 tests, 0 deps beyond
vitest itself).

tauri-action uploads the .exe but doesn't create .nsis.zip/.sig because
the bundler doesn't pick up TAURI_SIGNING_PRIVATE_KEY automatically.
Added a PowerShell step that zips the exe, signs it via tauri signer,
and uploads .nsis.zip + .nsis.zip.sig — mirroring the macOS approach.

- fix: CI Windows NSIS upload — let tauri-action handle artifact upload directly
- fix: Linux/AUR ring linker error — cc + -fuse-ld=bfd via .cargo/config.toml
- fix: releases now created as draft for review before publishing
- chore: consolidate 1.27.0–1.27.2 changelog into single entry
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- 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.

### Added
- Favorite/Star button in player bar (requested by @halfkey)
- Bulk multi-select for album tracklist and playlist detail (add to playlist, remove from playlist)
- Song Info modal via right-click context menu (metadata: format, bitrate, sample rate, bit depth, channels, file size, path, replay gain)
- Recently Played section on Home page
- "Show activity in Now Playing" opt-in toggle in Settings → Behavior
### Fixed
- Queue cover art not updating on track change (useCachedUrl/CachedImage reset on cacheKey change)

- Playlist card delete confirmation visual (size expansion + pulse animation)
- Gruvbox Light Soft: back button and badge invisible against light background
### Changed
- buildStreamUrl: removed unused suffix parameter
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- layout: overflow:hidden on .app-shell + min-height:0 on sidebar/main/queue
prevents player bar from being pushed off-screen when window is resized
below OS minHeight constraint (ignored by some Linux WMs)
- lib.rs: pass main window HWND to souvlaki PlatformConfig on Windows so
SMTC hooks into the existing Win32 message loop instead of creating its
own — fixes media keys on Windows without crashing
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
SMTC init via souvlaki requires a valid HWND + COM message loop, which
are not available in setup(). Guarded behind #[cfg(not(target_os = "windows"))].
mpris_set_metadata / mpris_set_playback no-op on Windows via the None branch.
