CHANGELOG.md keeps an Unreleased section (user-facing changes add a line in
the same commit); tool/release.sh cuts it into the version, the manifest
gets a structured "changes" field next to the one-line "notes" older
apps read, and the Gitea release text is that section. The app's update
band shows the top items, What's new opens a card (Added / Changed /
Fixed), and the first start after an update shows it once.

- What's next is the server's: state.advance counts down (10 s) when the
media finishes with an Up next item first, holds while its performer or
warm source is gone, and sets queuePlay at its end; cancel is shared, a
seek or swap ends it; the server skips items nobody can put up. Shared
rules in core whats_next.dart; the app's janitor, per-screen countdown
and end-of-episode card are gone.
- The continuation (next Jellyfin episode, next file of a local show
with its gaps) is an auto item under "Continues with", prepared like
Up next's first item.
- Watch tracking by time In (D3): only time played while this viewer is
in counts; away, paused, held, jumps and stalls never do (P7, P9).
WatchTracker + device WatchHistory (files, links); Jellyfin progress
reads the same watch; records are the AniList seam.
- A server restart no longer loses what played: apps hold their media
and one offers it back (swap.restore, first offer wins), Up next is
re-added, the source re-feeds, and the watch carries on.

- L1 (core, offline): release names with kinds (episode, movie, extra:
OP/ED/Opening/Ending/NC/PV/OVA…), folder hints (season and name from
parentheticals, ranges), one show across folders, gaps and next with
skipped numbers, junk ignored, stable keys.
- L2 (app, device-owned cache): AniList match with synonyms and
sequel walking, episode mapping across cours (AnimeFlow runs when
signed in), art and episode titles, "Wrong show?" pins per show or
folder, episode offsets; lazy, spaced requests, works offline.
- Files tab as a library: poster cards, show pages with banner, gap
prompt, extras, movies, Wrong show? and Episode numbers.
- media.ref produced for local files, Jellyfin (provider ids) and links,
carried in swaps and Up next; receivers name media from it.
- Hosting relays each Jellyfin item through its own server's login.

- One server per app run (loopback, no password); Invite attaches an
all-interfaces listener to the same server and Stop sharing detaches
it (guests told with 4016); members, media and Up next never reset.
No solo mode: you're home on your own server unless in a friend's.
- Navigation: none / yours / friend; a join passes a version gate on
/health first (clear "they/you need to update", update offer).
- Invite as a value (host, port, name, password flag, version, fp
reserved); addresses filtered (loopback, link-local, 198.18/15,
bridges) and ranked; Sharing chip, Copy invite, Stop sharing.
- Alone looks like a plain player (alone replaces solo).
- AppGraph builds and disposes systems; widgets use AppScope;
SessionState deleted; a test caps the remaining singletons.

- Status: computed from connection, presence, hold, relay, player facts;
no setters (health writes and HealthStatus gone); pill, strip and
source line read it; transitions go to the Notifier.
- Notifier: noticeFor(event, context) with self presence, alone, window
activity, playing and prefs; toasts for joins/leaves/returns/swaps/
Up next adds (with picture)/problems/chat, the rest logged; while
sitting out only chat, nudges, starting, Up next (+ joins if chosen);
alone no social notices; replayed lines logged; owns its toast timer.
- System notifications (flutter_local_notifications: D-Bus on Linux,
WinRT on Windows) when the window isn't focused; a click focuses it.
- Toasts sit above the control bar and move with it.
- Versions: each member's in the members card and avatar tooltip,
the server's in the card header; the strip no longer shows it.

Server and core: version ranges on both sides with a coded refusal; a
client id maps to the same member and token for the server's life; a
drop is `gone` for a 10-minute grace keeping ready, presence, queue
items, relay and avatar; `bye` leaves at once; ordered takeover (seq,
replaced/stale); presence joining/in/away/gone with one PresencePolicy;
joiners never pause playback and hold a held gate at most ~15 s;
state.hold; feed ids, seq and replay; the relay lives through its
source's grace and continues on re-dial; queue `by` lasting, auto
items and cancel; MediaRef carried; client ids never logged.
App: persisted client id and seq; Connection with unstable/lost/
replaced states, backoff with jitter, no lost/back pair per flap; a drop
keeps the session (state, player, media, relay source); presence in the
strip and members card; sit out = away intent; feed matched by id;
auto sit-out (idle when not playing, minimised for a while; never when
alone) replaces auto-unready; bye on close and Leave, not on update
restart; relay source re-dials through its grace.

- Linux app id dev.foxyz.starsync, binary starsync; Windows starsync.exe,
company foxyz; server starsync-server; Dart package starsync; archives
starsync-<ver>-*.
- 1.2.x compatibility: watch_together and watch-together-server
launchers (Linux) / copies (Windows) in the archive; the updater
accepts both names and relaunches the new binary; update.sh/.bat use
whichever server exists.
- First start copies (never moves) the old support folder and this
app's Hive boxes out of ~/Documents into <support>/hive; a marker
makes it run once; AppDirs is a port; settings schema version with
ordered migrations.
- Launcher entry dev.foxyz.starsync.desktop; the old one removed.
- Repository name and URLs unchanged.

Connection owns the socket lifecycle, connect/dial with epochs,
reconnect, the clock offset, diagnostics upload and a sealed ConnState
signal; the hello is built by an injectable builder, the resume token
stays private, and the reconnect delay and silence limit are parameters.
The coordinator maps ConnState to the same health texts and keeps the
reconnect restore and drop handling (step 1 replaces them).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Tests: the four known failures fixed (test-side causes), one duplicate
file and four detail-pinning cases removed, every test that pins
behaviour the restructure changes tagged with its step.
- Every toast, sound and activity-log line goes through Notifier.notify
(AppEvent), mapped one-to-one to today's behaviour.
- Platform ports (shell, URLs, folders, link resolver, system
notifications) with desktop implementations; window_manager, Process
and file_picker now live only in platform/desktop/.
- ROADMAP: protocol 16 planned; app id dev.foxyz.starsync.

- Close: hide the window, dispose every player, thumbnail job and the
sound engine, leave, then close normally; Linux runner _exit (the
NVIDIA EGL exit handler crashed 10/10 closes, 0/41 now); Windows tears
down inside the message loop, then TerminateProcess; watchdogs.
- Version under the Settings tab; an update band instead of a dot,
never over a video; checks at start and every 4 hours.
- Chat pop-ups default to All again.
- Shader read-back compared as a list (old mpv joins with ','), so
Windows stops turning shaders off; Windows hwdec auto-copy.
- Render diagnostics (`mpv: render` lines); RAM-only demuxer cache pin
silences the file-cache warning; a volume readout test.

SoundEngine (platform/audio) opens the device once (2 s after start,
or on the first sound), loads each synthesized sound into memory (no
temp files), plays overlapping voices and is disposed on window close,
before leaving the server. The SfxService interface and its callers
are unchanged; loudness matches the old mpv path (v^6). WAV only, so
no codec libraries are bundled and no build packages are needed.

PlayerControlsModel holds the controls' state and actions once; the
Standard skin (our own, no more media_kit controls or private-state
reach-ins) and Minimal (the former uosc design, made the app's own and
credited) only draw it. One layout spec for both: play first, then
previous/next, volume, time; subtitles, audio, settings, chat,
fullscreen last; everything else in the settings menu. Settings ->
Player -> Controls: time display, size, hide delay, optional buttons.

Every app streams its redacted diagnostic lines (server time, batched
every 10 s, gzip, buffered while offline) to POST /l/; the server merges
them with its own into session-YYYY-MM-DD.log in time order, tagged by
who. Opt-out in Settings > About; Mark a problem (Ctrl+Shift+B, the
player menus, About) writes a marker with an optional note. Copy
diagnostics can include the server's session log. Chat text never
reaches any log.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Logs: one redaction pass (query strings to names, member tokens,
passwords, cookies, auth headers) for every line; daily files with size
and age caps in the app (hosted server included) and the dedicated
server (--log-dir); swaps, relay channels, per-member /r /m /j outcomes,
server fetches, mpv load errors, yt-dlp runs. Settings > About: Copy
diagnostics, Open logs folder.
Bilibili through someone else: the viewer opened /r/ before the source
dialled in; the server holds that request and mpv gives up after 5 s
("could not be opened"). Viewers now open a member relay once it is
live, the putter starts its source before its own player, and track
sizes are read in parallel.

- Next episode (known ending, else the last two minutes) and Skip ED
show only while the controls are up, like Skip 1:30 (PillGate).
- A web link's name and wide cover slot show from the first state, so
nothing flips when its thumbnail arrives.
- Chat pop-ups default to Only when paused.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- A swap stops the previous media at once; buffer counts only for the
media the player holds (client) and the current mediaId (server), so
the old video can no longer start the new one.
- The automatic frozen-picture reload is gone (false alarms on still
scenes); Reload video stays.
- The "Next episode" pill shows only from a known ending.
- A web link's thumbnail is its cover, under the video's own name.
- While playing, the unread chip stays off the picture; chat pop-ups
can be All / Only when paused / Off.
- Server fetch failures say when the server has no cookies.

Putting anything up offline starts a solo session: an in-app server bound
to 127.0.0.1 only, joined like hosting, so tracking, next episode and the
player all work. Invite friends re-hosts on the Host card's port and
password with the same media and position; Stop needs no confirmation.
Offline, the Library opens with a welcome band (Join a friend, Host, Watch
solo); without a Jellyfin account it leads with Files and Link, Jellyfin
is an optional card. Play buttons work offline.

Anyone can sit anyone out (host included); only you bring yourself back.
Out members stay in chat and the party, never block or count, and load no
media; a card with the live position and Join back (Space) replaces the
video. The mini player's x sits you out; optionally idle does too. Nudge:
the server forwards it to the target only (3/s, 20/min per sender); the
target hears the nudge sound, gets a toast and a taskbar attention
request. Kick, its messages, errors and dialog are gone.

yt-dlp: a managed, checksum-verified, daily-updated yt-dlp in the app and
the dedicated server (--[no-]yt-dlp, --yt-dlp-dir). Pasted links are
probed: direct files stay links, pages are resolved for title, uploader,
duration and thumbnail. Everyone fetches it: mpv's ytdl hook on the
managed copy. I pass it on / the server fetches it: the best single-file
format, re-resolved once when its URL expires. Relay names never split
the /r/ path; viewers of server-fetched pages wait for the relay to go
live. No wire change.
Icon: two stars orbiting a play button (assets/icon/icon.svg, PNGs, the
Windows .ico). GTK app id moe.senkochan.watch_together; release builds
install their .desktop file and icons into ~/.local/share so Wayland
shows the icon; the window icon is set for X11. README shows the icon.

Ready gate: whoever is in the server while it is not playing counts (joining
while playing does not pause anyone); a swap counts everyone present and
keeps ready flags; the quorum rule is gone. Optional 'Unready when the
video changes'. No 'Skip 1:30' guess when the media has chapters.
Drag & drop and Ctrl+V anywhere (fox_utils): files, folders and links get a
small card asking how to open them. Files series start collapsed.
UI: Tab never moves focus and Space is always ready outside text fields;
chat focuses its field; unread badge on uosc and a chip in fullscreen;
people-only chat with an Activity toggle; skip pills show 5 s then with
the controls; volume up to 150%; own avatar same size as the party.

Eleven sounds for events that carry news (ready, unready, everyone ready,
join, leave, kick, new video, others' chat, idle warning, connection
lost/back); none for what the video already says. New voices: koto
(Karplus-Strong, bendable), furin chime, rin bowl, bamboo, hyoshigi,
shoji slide, in the Yo scale on D. Played by SynthSfx at the Settings
volume with per-sound switches and previews. The debug layout mock is
gone.

Library: source switch, selectable cards with a details panel, one merged
Continue row, Latest grouped per series without re-releases, Link page with
previews and recent links, Files embedded. Player: gear popover in both
designs, progress line while controls hide, live hwdec. Settings rebuilt as
cards. State marks the host member (proto stays 9, unreleased); hosting
shows LAN invite addresses; window buttons in fullscreen. fadeThrough keeps
the outgoing view's state.

Thick timeline with hatched cache range, chapter diamonds and
chapter/time hover boxes; collapses to a thin progress line when
hidden. Flat icon row with track count badges, shader preset badge,
flat dark menus. Own show/hide state, live switch in window and
fullscreen. New buffered signal from demuxer-cache-time.

- Host/swap send refs only; pasted Jellyfin links become refs; the host
hands the relay its own app-obtained credential.
- Each viewer resolves with their own account (token in a header) or
via the relay, else a clear blocked card with Link account.
- Per-account progress reporting (Playing/Progress/Stopped), 401 marks
the account expired.
- Previous/next episode in the controls (< > / Shift+P/N), floating
Next episode pill near the end, auto-advance countdown (one
designated swapper), track carry-over per series.
- Swap panel uses the shared MediaPicker; browser location remembered
per server and opens on the current series.
- Fix: states are applied one at a time (a stale pause could land
after a newer play).

Vendored Anime4K v4.0.1 GLSL (MIT), extracted to app support once per
version. Presets A/B/C/A+A/B+B/C+A in HQ and Fast per Anime4K's mpv
templates, plus custom files. Shader button in the video controls
(works in fullscreen), Ctrl+1..6 / Ctrl+0, live apply with read-back,
failures fall back to Off with a toast. Render mode detected from
mpv's GL log; warns when on the software path. Docs include the
Jellyfin client section.

- serve(Map config, events) is the one server entrypoint: the app
hosts it via Isolate.spawn (crash surfaced on the Host card, logs
forwarded as [server]); bin/server.dart is the dedicated server,
compiled into the bundle as watch-together-server. --headless gone.
- Host identity via a per-hosting hostKey in hello, replacing the
loopback heuristic.
- Rename room -> server across code, files and wire (t:"state",
/health name); protocol bumped to 5.
- CI compiles the server binary; isolate smoke tests in server and
desktop suites. Docs updated.

- Player + VideoController per session; Reload video (Ctrl+R) and a
frozen-picture watchdog that reloads automatically.
- Shortcuts no longer fire while typing; empty swap disabled;
hwdec setting/env actually applied.
- Idle unready measured from real inactivity; cancellable reconnects
and setup; ready restored from server state; kicked/failed host
stops its server; graceful leave on window close; no URLs with
keys in display names.
- Welcome + connect screens replaced by one Home screen with Join and
Host cards, recent servers, Settings, Integrations and About.
