Release v0.9.9

Highlights

• In-app self-updates — added an in-app update flow that checks GitHub Releases, resolves the correct APK by device flavor (phone/tv) and ABI, streams the download with progress, and shows release notes in a bottom sheet
• Video player overhaul — introduced a 5-tier refresh-rate/resolution display-mode matcher, cross-episode audio/subtitle track memory with a weighted scorer, A/B repeat, PixelCopy screenshots, press-and-hold subtitle sync, per-item subtitle-delay persistence, and free-form mpv.conf option parsing
• Subtitle experience — added per-subtitle download status tracking with independent spinners and retry UI, plus per-series subtitle role preferences (forced-narrative, SDH) with tiered matching
• Track labels & enrichment — centralized track label formatting with role badges (Forced/Default/SDH) and server-side enrichment so all engines (ExoPlayer, mpv, libVLC) produce consistent, de-duplicated labels
• 9-language localization — added German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean, and Chinese across all feature modules and the core UI, with a settings language picker
• Library & playlists — added an Add-to-Playlist picker with a pinned "Watch Later" row and playlist creation from the detail screen
• Home polish — added an ambient backdrop to the home screen and reduced unnecessary recompositions across home and admin
• Reliability — stripped stale player routes from the back stack on state-loss restore so the app no longer auto-plays a dead item, and suppressed auto-update checks for dismissed versions

Full Changelog: release/v0.9.4...release/v0.9.5

Release v0.9.4

Highlights

• Offline playback sync — introduced a playback outbox and a PlaybackSyncWorker that queue progress and played/unplayed events while offline (or on API failure) and drain them on reconnect using latest-wins reconciliation, so watched state stays consistent across the server, downloads, and the UI without needing a connection.
• Played-state consistency — cascaded mark played/unplayed into the offline hierarchy, normalized offline watched state at the 95%-of-runtime threshold, and fixed stale watched badges that flipped back during post-mutation episode refetch and playback-stop cache reads.
• Sync visibility on home — added a pending-sync status icon with a live badge and a Sync Details sheet showing per-entry media metadata, ages, and a manual Sync Now action.
• Season-level watched actions — added mark played / unplayed for an entire season with optimistic state updates and smart-play target recomputation.
• Structured player errors — replaced bare Flow<String> error channels with a typed EngineError across all engines, so the UI can distinguish retryable from fatal failures and offer engine-switch/retry affordances.
• Metered connection awareness — surfaced metered-network status in the playback UI to explain silent bitrate caps.
• Player hardening & polish — guarded LoudnessEnhancer against crashes, fixed select-all across lazy-loaded seasons, removed a kotlin-reflect dependency, and strengthened subtitle download cancellation, trickplay metadata guards, and live-engine fallback paths.
