- "Sharp video and subtitles" (Settings → Player and the player settings card, on by default): the video output renders at the view's physical size (debounced, GPU rendering only), so libass, mpv's scaler and the shaders work at screen resolution; re-sent after media_kit's own reset on new video params, redrawn while paused. - Dev builds only (Settings → About → Developer): a danmaku preview (DanmakuLayer: free lanes in an upper band, density cap with a queue, equal crossing time, outlined text, avatars, own-line frame) over the real player or a stand-in picture, with samples, a random stream, live toasts, every knob and mock subtitles; and "Lift subtitles above the chat line and controls": Enter opens a stand-in chat line, bottom subtitles move up via mpv sub-pos while it or the control bar is up. - tool/make_sub_test.sh: a test video with a top \an8 sign, bottom dialogue and an SRT track.

# Changelog
|
|
|
|
What changed in each Starsync version, newest first, in plain words. The
|
|
app shows a version's section when it offers the update and once after it
|
|
(`What's new`); the release page shows it too. How entries are added and
|
|
cut into a release: [docs/DEVELOPMENT.md](docs/DEVELOPMENT.md#changelog).
|
|
|
|
## Unreleased
|
|
|
|
Links you put up are downloaded once for everyone, plus What's new and fixes for Windows, the relay and chat.
|
|
|
|
### Added
|
|
|
|
- What's new: the update band shows what changed, and after an update the app shows the full list once (also in Settings → About)
|
|
- Sharper subtitles and picture: the video and its subtitles are drawn at your screen's resolution instead of the video's (Settings → Player → Sharp video and subtitles, on by default)
|
|
|
|
### Changed
|
|
|
|
- A link you put up is downloaded once: you and everyone else watch the same stream, so nobody drifts ahead or stalls alone, and sites like Bilibili are far less likely to block it
|
|
|
|
### Fixed
|
|
|
|
- Joining while something plays on Windows: the video opens again by itself when it was too early
|
|
- Relay: players no longer get stuck after a slow or stalled source
|
|
- Relay: X (Twitter) clips play through the relay
|
|
- Relay: gentler retries, so Bilibili stops blocking the server
|
|
- Relay: a source that refuses the old link (412) gets a fresh address and keeps playing
|
|
- Chat pop-ups stay away while the chat panel is open (the sound still plays)
|
|
|
|
## 1.3.2
|
|
|
|
Fixes Windows closing by itself about 3 seconds after every start.
|
|
|
|
### Fixed
|
|
|
|
- Windows: the app no longer closes by itself about 3 seconds after starting (1.3.0 and 1.3.1)
|
|
|
|
## 1.3.1
|
|
|
|
Joining another server no longer opens an empty player, a cleaner mini player and a softer Minimal progress line.
|
|
|
|
### Changed
|
|
|
|
- A cleaner mini player: just the picture, play and a plain progress bar
|
|
- Minimal controls: the progress line shown while the controls hide is softer and easier on the eyes
|
|
|
|
### Fixed
|
|
|
|
- Joining another server no longer opens an empty player
|
|
|
|
## 1.3.0
|
|
|
|
The app is now called Starsync and was rebuilt inside for stability: a shared countdown to what plays next, honest watched marks, faster relay seeks and many fixes. Everyone must update to keep watching together.
|
|
|
|
### Added
|
|
|
|
- A shared countdown to what plays next, and anyone can cancel it
|
|
- The next episode of your local files continues by itself ("Continues with")
|
|
- System notifications while the window is in the background
|
|
- Your own server is always running: Invite your friends straight in
|
|
- See the server's version and everyone's app version
|
|
- The library matches your shows with AniList
|
|
- A new sound engine and new sounds
|
|
|
|
### Changed
|
|
|
|
- The app is now called Starsync (your settings and data come along)
|
|
- "Watched" counts only the time you actually watched (Jellyfin too)
|
|
- Joining no longer pauses everyone
|
|
- A dropped connection comes back as the same member, not a new one
|
|
- A server restart no longer loses what was playing
|
|
- Faster seeks over the relay
|
|
|
|
### Fixed
|
|
|
|
- The app no longer freezes on exit
|
|
- Shaders on Windows
|
|
- X11: video renders properly again (also with software rendering)
|
|
- Black video when joining mid-play on X11
|
|
- Many stability fixes from the rebuild
