Resolve several playback bugs introduced during the CPU optimization
work. Stop SyncEngine from overwriting the Subsonic album cache with
synthetic Companion IDs, which was silently breaking every album in
the Albums tab by routing through the Companion song path instead of
Navidrome streaming. Fix MiniProgressBar seek gesture dropping touches
by moving the DragGesture outside the TimelineView closure — the 10Hz
timer was reconstructing the gesture recognizer every tick,
interrupting in-progress drags. Add AVPlayerItem status observation to
AudioPlayer so stream failures surface in the debug console instead of
silently stalling. Add fuzzy title/artist/duration fallback to
OfflineManager.localURL so songs remain playable offline after a
Companion API restructure changes their Navidrome ID.
The Artist → Album path bypassed this entirely because it navigates via artistId which fetches albums fresh from Navidrome each time.
After installing this and doing a pull-to-refresh, the Albums tab will use real Navidrome IDs again. You may need to clear the app’s cache once if the stale Companion IDs are already persisted — Settings → clear library cache if that option exists, or just force-quit and relaunch after refreshing.
Replace @Published var currentTime/duration with plain vars and drive
progress bars via TimelineView(.periodic) instead of SwiftUI
observation. This stops objectWillChange from firing 20x/second on
AudioPlayer, eliminating continuous body re-evaluation on
NowPlayingView, MiniPlayerBar, and MyMusicView regardless of
visualizer state.
NowPlayingView.swift — The _radioProgressBarImpl stub I left as a
“reference” comment block was still compiled by Swift and referenced
isDraggingSlider, dragPosition, and playbackTime which no longer exist
on NowPlayingView. Removed the entire stub. Also transportControls had
one remaining playbackTime reference — replaced with
audioPlayer.currentTime directly since transport controls genuinely
need the current position for the timeshift enable/disable logic and
don’t cause a body re-eval issue there.
NavidromeWatchApp.swift — syncLibrary() is declared async not async
throws, so try? was redundant. Removed it.
AUDIT-036 — Slider/button fixes (direct Liquid Glass cause)
scheduleFlush() now runs Task { @MainActor } instead of bare Task. The
pendingSaves dictionary is now only ever read/written on the main
thread. Before this fix, a UserDefaults write could race with a slider
didSet, causing values to snap back or write the wrong value — which
is exactly why buttons were switching state unexpectedly.
AUDIT-034 — 60fps idle Canvas (direct Liquid Glass cause)
TimelineView now uses isRenderingActive ? settings.effectiveFPS : 2.0.
When paused or not visible, the Canvas drops from 60fps to 2fps. This
stops the continuous GPU wakeups that were fighting Liquid Glass
gesture tracking, which is why sliders needed multiple attempts.
AUDIT-001 — FFT real-time heap allocation
processFFT no longer allocates any heap memory. The Hann window is
computed once in init(). All four scratch buffers (fftWindow,
fftWindowed, fftRealp/fftImagp, fftMagnitudes) are pre-allocated and
reused every render callback — zero allocations on the real-time audio
thread.
AUDIT-002 — WatchOfflineStore data race
taskToSongId and pendingSongs now protected by a dedicated serial
storeQueue. URLSession delegate reads and main thread writes are
serialised.
AUDIT-019 — URLSession per AsyncCoverArt render
CompanionAPIService() no longer instantiated per render. Companion
cover art URLs now built directly from
CompanionSettings.shared.baseURL — no URLSession created.
AUDIT-020 — Synchronous disk read on main thread
CachedImageLoader now uses memoryOnlyImage (sync, no I/O) for the
first check, then cachedImageAsync (disk read on ioQueue) for the
second. Main thread never blocks on disk I/O.
AUDIT-033 — Lost star/unstar actions offline
Star/unstar now routes through OptimisticActionQueue — actions survive
Tailscale reconnection and are retried automatically.
AUDIT-035 — OptimisticActionQueue flush race
flush() Task is now @MainActor — pendingActions only ever touched on
main thread, no more race between rapid taps and in-flight flushes.
AUDIT-038 — O(n²) deduplication
deduplicateAlbums now O(n) using a frequency dictionary. For 843
albums: ~7.1M string comparisons/second during playback → ~1,700.
AUDIT-026, AUDIT-015 — Duplicate setResourceValue removed, cacheSize
now uses totalSize directly
Companion (main.py):
• NAVIDROME_TAGS whitelist — the single source of truth for what tags
survive
• enforce_tag_whitelist() — whitelist enforcer, replaces blacklist
approach
• All 5 write points updated: apply_tags, apply_tags_dict,
upload-track, upload-tracks, restructure_all
• preserve_composer and preserve_lyrics flags on both upload
endpoints (default False)
• /library/clean-tags now uses whitelist enforcer
iOS:
• UploadMetadata — preserveComposer and preserveLyrics fields
• buildMultipartBody — sends both flags as form fields
• BatchUploadView — two toggles, both off by default, wired end-to-end
• MultiAlbumEditorSheet — full rewrite matching
BatchAlbumEditorSheet: MusicBrainz search, swipe to exclude/include
tracks, Reset button, cover art widget with red glow

Active tab — all unignored issues, swipe left → “Ignore” (grey)
• Ignored tab — all ignored issues shown dimmed, swipe left →
“Restore” (pink) to bring them back
• Fix buttons hidden on ignored issues
• Ignored IDs persisted in @AppStorage so they survive app restarts
• Tab labels show live counts: Active (1) | Ignored (31)
The MusicBrainz feature adds:
• Magnifying glass in the toolbar — searches by current title + artist
• A picker sheet showing up to 10 results with album, year, country,
label, track number
• Blue suggestion pills appear below each field that differs from the
MB match
• Tap a pill to accept it — auto-checks the field for saving
• Green magnifying glass once a match is selected, tap again to change
iOS — 6 fixes across 5 files:
Models.swift — Song, Album, AlbumWithSongs all now have albumArtist:
String?. CompanionSong.toSong() passes albumArtist.
CompanionAlbum.toAlbum() passes albumArtist to the new field.
TrackEditorView.swift — Album Artist field now initialises from
song.albumArtist ?? song.artist instead of just song.artist.
fetchCompanionDetails no longer requires companion: prefix — it
fetches for all songs using the album name, decodes properly using
CompanionLibraryResponse, and matches by relative_path.
BatchAlbumEditorSheet.swift — initialises from album.albumArtist ??
album.artist.
MultiAlbumEditorSheet.swift — pre-fills from first.albumArtist ??
first.artist.
AlbumDetailView.swift — buildAlbumWithSongs now passes albumArtist
from the companion songs.
Companion — 2 fixes:
apply_tags — now does full FLAC cleanup (removes all Picard legacy
variants) before writing, same as apply_tags_dict already did.
edit-metadata endpoint — no longer calls restructure_file. File
renaming only happens via /bulk-fix. This was the root cause of the
500 errors on compilation tracks with disc numbers.
• Group toggles — iPhone / Watch / Companion / Audio, all persistent
via @AppStorage so your filter state survives app restarts
• Level toggles — ERROR / WARN / INFO / DEBUG in a single scrollable
row next to the group toggles, color coded red/yellow/cyan/gray
• Delta timestamps — each row shows +42ms between it and the previous
entry, so you can see timing without mental math
• Pause/Resume — bottom bar button snapshots the current log so you
can read it without it scrolling, while still capturing in background
• Auto background/foreground markers — ── Background ── / ──
Foreground ── lines are auto-inserted by NotificationCenter, making
crash correlation much easier
• PiP button in toolbar sets logger.isPiP = true, which MainTabView’s
.onChange picks up and activates the existing floating PiP window
MainTabView.swift — minimal changes:
• Added .onChange(of: debugLogger.isPiP) to sync the console’s PiP
button to the existing debugPipMode state
• Updated debugLogRow to show level dot + marker support, consistent
with the full console
Songs Tab (SearchView.swift)
Default state now loads all songs alphabetically from the library via
getAlbumList2 → per-album song fetch, cached under "all_songs_sorted"
so subsequent opens are instant. The Download All banner shows song
count + already-downloaded count and queues only non-downloaded songs.
Every row uses .contextMenu (the long-press menu) with Play Now, Play
Next, Add to Queue, Download/Remove, Send to Watch, and Add to
Playlist — same pattern as Favourites. Watch and download badges
appear on each row. Searching ≥2 chars runs the server search and
shows artists/albums/songs in sections, then clears back to the full
list when the field is empty.
Keyboard Done Button
A single keyboardDoneButton() View extension in AsyncCoverArt.swift
calls UIApplication.shared.sendAction(resignFirstResponder:...)
globally — no @FocusState needed. Applied to: LoginView (all 4
fields), CompanionSettingsView (host/port), TrackEditorView
(checkField helper covers all tag fields), BatchAlbumEditorSheet
(editField helper), RadioView (name/URL), PlaylistsView (name fields),
MyMusicView (search), SearchView (via @FocusState + toolbar directly).
ShazamKit MTAudioProcessingTap
Primary path: MTAudioProcessingTap installed on AVPlayerItem.audioMix
— works for HLS, radio, and any AVPlayer stream without touching the
microphone. The prepare callback captures the source format and builds
an AVAudioConverter to 16kHz mono. The C-style shazamTapProcess free
function (required by the API) calls
MTAudioProcessingTapGetSourceAudio then dispatches to a serial
analysisQueue — the render thread is never blocked. convertAndMatch
wraps the raw AudioBufferList in an AVAudioPCMBuffer, converts it, and
feeds SHSession.matchStreamingBuffer. Fallback to microphone
(AVAudioEngine) is kept for the local engine path where no
AVPlayerItem exists. NSMicrophoneUsageDescription is only needed if
the mic fallback is ever hit.
Phase 1 — VisualizerStorageManager.swift
VisFrameBuffer is a flat ContiguousArray<Float> with frameCount and
pointsPerFrame. All frame data for a track lives in one contiguous
allocation rather than a [[Float]] array-of-arrays. loadCache now uses
Data(contentsOf:options:.alwaysMapped) — the OS maps the file into
virtual memory and faults pages in on demand rather than reading the
whole file into heap. copyFrame(at:into:) copies a frame slice
directly into _audioLevels using initialize(from:) — no intermediate
[Float] created.
Phase 2 — MitsuhaVisualizerView.swift + AudioPlayer.swift
VisualizerLevelBox now pre-allocates targetLevels, displayLevels,
idleLevels, and the full 16-slot history ring on first use via
resizeIfNeeded. This only triggers when numberOfPoints changes (rare —
settings slider). updateDisplayLevels writes directly into
box.targetLevels throughout — no var targetLevels = [Float](), no map,
no append. The history ring buffer now copies in-place into
pre-allocated slots, eliminating the COW trigger on every frame.
drawIdleState uses box.idleLevels — no Array(repeating:). The Canvas
body no longer falls back to Array(repeating:) since displayLevels is
always pre-allocated. The timer in AudioPlayer now calls
buf.copyFrame(at:into:&_audioLevels) directly — no intermediate
[Float] copy.
Phase 3 — View invalidation + drawBars fix
fillColors hoisted out of the drawBars per-bar loop — it was
allocating a new [Color] array count times per frame (8–24 allocations
per draw call at 60fps). Now computed once before the loop.
@ObservedObject var settings and @StateObject private var box are
correct — box has zero @Published properties so it never triggers
parent redraws. The Canvas closure only captures tickDate which
changes every tick, ensuring per-tick re-execution without touching
SwiftUI’s diffing engine.
