- PlaybackManager now takes ownership of set items
- PlaybackManager can play items just by their itemId, avoids useless
item creation on the QML side of things.
- Allow calling Jellyfin::registerTypes with a different URI
- Minor code cleanup
* [backend]: Websocket now automatically tries to reconnect if connection was lost, up to 3 times.
* [backend]: Move more playback and resume logic to the backend, to avoid having it in multiple places within the QML. Regression: pausing playback sometimes halts the video player for an unknown reason.
* [playback]: Sailfin will try to play without the server transcoding, if possible.
* [ui]: added a debug page in the settings
* [ui] Added: Blurry previews of images before they are loaded
Also fixes a bug where ApiModel would remove items that already started
with a lowecase letter or didn't start with a letter at all.
- Application could not be launched by the invoker because of some
missing compiler flags (-rdynamic -pie)
- Private libraries were not found due to incorrect rpath being set
- Moved the qml list of files for sailfish from qtquick to sailfish
(Stupid mistake I made because my editor doesn't really differentiate
between different files with the same name in different folders)
* [UI] Improved: error handling should be slightly better
* [UI] Improved: settings now show the user name and picture instead of the user id if network is available.
The websocket now notifies the ApiClient, on which several models and
items are listening, when the userData for an user has changed. The UI
on the qml side may automatically updates without any extra effort.
This also resolves a bug where videos didn't resume after +/- 3:40 due
to an integer overflow.
I finally got deserializing lists working. Exposing them to QML was not
a trivial task either. Note that I didn't do it the clean way. Nested
lists are not supported. But it works!
Because I got so frustarted at one point trying to implement things the
right way, I restructured the project to seperate the Sailfish code from
the Qt code and created a new, empty desktop project. The Qt code has
been transformed into a happy little library, to which the Sailfish OS
application links.
Note that QMake doesn't seem to strip the library for some reason.
* EpisodePage and FilmPage are now based off VideoPage, since they share a
lot of components in common.
* The overlay over the thumbnail in PlayToolbar is less obtrusive
* Cover shows now the title of the item, and total play time, if
applicable
* The resume playing section forces all delegates to be square.
* The Season page now uses a ListView instead of a ColumnView.
[Playback]: New: playback progress is reported to the Jellyfin server.
[Playback]: New: resume partly played items or start playing from the beginning if desired.
I also had to make some changes to the VideoPlayer, because the VideoHUD
got locked up when the player changed status from Buffering to Buffered
too quickly in succession, which occurs when trying to seek directly
after the application is able to.
Once again I couldn't stop myself from being sidetracked.
[Collections]: Added: allow specifying sort order (Ascending, Descending)
[General]: Improved: Added video fallback page to allow unknown video types to be played, although without extra metadata.
[General]: Improved: Added folder fallback, so unknown collection types are at least displayed without metadata.
Previously, Items were displayed in one page, named DetailPage.qml.
This page then would load a qml component, based on the page type. It
also contained some components common for each detail page, like
displaying the name of the item. This construction had as downside that
modifying the page properties, adding a pulley menu or basing the page
around a SilicaListview was not possible. So I already had created some
other pages.
The new construction uses a base page, named BaseDetailPage which does
set some common properties and handle the loading of the items, so that
that part does not have to be duplicated. Displaying the name of an item
was a very trivial thing to do, so duplicating that part across files
was not a problem. Anyway, the rest of the pages are now seperate, but
all have BaseDetailsPage as the root, so they can use the common
functionality by that page. Those subpages now can be based around
GridViews, Carrousels, have pully menus and so on. To determine to which
page to go to, based on the content type, a function named getPageUrl
has been added to Utils.js, which takes a content type as argument and
gives the page url back.
Apparently the Jellyfin server may include different fields in the
resposne depending on which SortOrder you use. This causes the model to
generate new roleNames when changing its sortOrder, but the QML part
does not know of this happening and there's no way of notifying the QML
part as far as I'm aware of (if so, let me know). So whenever new
generateFields() is called, it shouldn't reset its roleNames map and
recreate it anew, rather, just append the new roleNames to the current
map. If a model in QML wants to use information used in fields which are
added by changing SortOrder, please add those fields explicitly in
Fields.
* There is a basic collection page, allowing the user to browse through
collections. It has a sort function, that sort of works
* Item cards now show a bar indicating play time
* Item cards now have a black/white (depending on theme) shim, improving
readability.
* The resume watching section now actually loads items
