A baseline moves when the fix reaches SCREENS, which is not one rule
Two changes that are really one idea: the parity model treated all four
players as if they update the same way, and they do not.
WEB AND BRIGHTSIGN GET audio.volume BACK.
The audit removed it because v1.9.28's index.html contained the string
set_volume zero times, and because the handler read payload.value while the
dashboard sends { level }. The second reason 1.9.31 fixed. The first was
reasoning from the wrong artifact: this player is SERVED BY THE SERVER, so a
browser panel runs whatever build is answering it, not the release its row was
created under. There is no browser panel stuck on the v1.9.28 player once the
server moves — and prod moved tonight. The slider works on those displays right
now while the baseline says it does not, so the dashboard is hiding a working
control from every display that declares nothing.
BrightSign comes with it, on the same served player. The unit-specific doubt is
whether a hwz player's media element is reachable at all — and that is already
answered by audio.mute, which this baseline has always claimed: set_volume
reaches setMediaVolume() and device:mute-changed reaches currentVideoEl.muted,
same element, same path. If hwz swallowed one it would swallow both.
TIZEN DOES NOT COME WITH THEM, AND THE TEST NOW KNOWS WHY.
A .wgt sits on the panel until somebody updates it. Cutting 1.9.31 put nothing
on any screen, so an un-updated Tizen panel still has the broken handler and
moving its baseline would resurrect the dead slider on real hardware.
The test could not express that. It judged every family against "shipped
source", resolved as the newest tag — which is HEAD on a release commit, so
tagging 1.9.31 flipped all four biconditionals at once and demanded a baseline
change for displays that cannot have the fix yet. Green tree, red build, naming
a baseline, with nothing in the diff to explain it. main would have gone red on
the next commit whatever it contained; #242 just got there first.
So the two families are now modelled separately. Server-served: judged against
the working tree, both directions, because both are decidable from the build we
are about to serve. Device artifact: judged against the previous release, and
only in the over-claim direction — "the baseline claims it, so the shipped
player had better implement it" is always true and worth failing on, while
"HEAD gained the handler, so add it" is a guess about how many panels have
updated. The cost is that a stale entry can outlive the artifact reaching the
fleet; that is a judgement about screens, so a person makes it in
player-capabilities.js and records why.
player-capabilities.test.js carried the same stale reasoning hardcoded, and
docs/player-parity.md stated the old facts in four places — a parity matrix
that lies being the exact failure this whole model exists to stop.

Make the parity matrix true, and stop three controls that do nothing
The parity doc and the capability model had drifted from the players in both
directions, and nothing failed when they did. Auditing all four players against
their shipped sources turned up three controls a customer can press today that
change nothing, and a set of baselines that were partly too generous and partly
too stingy.
The three dead controls:
- The volume slider works on Android only. The dashboard sends set_volume as
{ level: 0..1 }; the web player reads payload.value and Tizen reads
payload.value ?? payload.volume, so on both the number is undefined and the
handler quietly declines. Three complete, working volume implementations
that cannot be driven. The fix is one line in each player and belongs to
those files; audio.volume is out of the web and brightsign baselines until
it lands, held there by a biconditional test that fails the moment a player
starts reading `level`.
- Every #161 Tier-2 command was refused for the entire fleet. lock_now,
power_menu, status_bar, block_uninstall and unblock_uninstall were gated on
system.device_owner, which no player declares and no baseline grants, so
supports() was false everywhere -- including on the device-owner panels the
feature was built for. The dashboard still drew the buttons because it also
gates on device.tier === 2. Fixed here: those five now accept
system.device_owner OR system.kiosk, which PlayerCapabilities.kt declares
under `if (isOwner)` and nothing else, and which no non-Android player
declares. Android should declare system.device_owner and retire the
stand-in.
- enable_system_capture required the capability it creates. It raises the
MediaProjection consent dialog -- the way a panel GAINS capture -- and was
gated on remote.screenshot, so the only panel that needs it was the one
panel that could not be sent it. Now ungated. The dashboard still hides the
button behind the same check; that half is a frontend change.
The baselines describe what an un-updated fielded display can do, and since
v1.9.29 is the first build in which any player declares anything, that means
v1.9.28. Every entry is now justified against `git show v1.9.28:<source>`:
- android loses display.power (v1.9.28 answers screen_on with a logged no-op,
so the ON half is dead on every fielded panel and one capability renders
both buttons) and system.reboot (owner-only; off-owner it paints an
accessibility power dialog over the signage). Scheduled reboots now skip
undeclared Android panels rather than logging a reboot that never happened,
which is the reason that gate exists.
- tizen gains display.power: v1.9.28 implements both halves with no signing
and no panel API, so withholding it hid a working control.
- brightsign loses audio.volume, display.power, system.reboot,
system.restart_player and offline.cache. All need a host bridge the unit is
not known to have, and restart_player without one is the page reload that
darkened a panel on 2026-07-28.
Also found, not fixed here because the files belong to others:
st-bridge.js computeCapabilities() is dead code -- nothing calls BS.capabilities()
-- and its 199 lines of passing tests constrain nothing a BrightSign actually
declares; the two disagree on six capabilities and the bridge is right about
most of them. BrightSign's "Force update" button is dead. PlayerCapabilities.kt
under-declares display.brightness.
The new test reads the player sources rather than the table: a dead-button rule
(every gated command has a branch somewhere), an unreachable-capability rule
(which would have caught system.device_owner), and biconditionals so a fix in a
player fails the test until the baseline follows. Claims that need hardware --
CEC reaching a display, a widget being allowed a service worker, SyncManager
holding frame lock -- are marked unverifiable in the document instead of
asserted.

Stop claiming offline cache on a runtime that refuses to run a service worker
Found on alpha after deploying rc4, by comparing what a device advertised against what it actually requested. A real BrightSign XT245 has navigator.serviceWorker, passes an `'serviceWorker' in navigator` check, and then never even fetches sw.js — its widget runtime refuses the registration. It was declaring offline.cache to the fleet while unable to cache a single byte, which is precisely the lie the capability model exists to prevent. The claim is now made on a worker that is actually IN CONTROL, and a refused registration sets a flag so the negative sticks on a runtime where it will never succeed. That failure previously went to console.warn, on a display nobody has a console for, so a panel that could cache nothing looked identical to one that could. It now reports app_error/sw_unavailable — as an allow-listed event type, since an unknown one is dropped by the server and would have been just as invisible. The cost is that the first load under-reports, before the worker claims the page. That is the right direction to be wrong in, and it self-corrects: the next register sends the true set. Also corrects docs/player-parity.md, which claimed BrightSign simply inherits the web player's service worker. The failing unit runs BSN's Supervisor rather than our brightsign/autorun.brs, and Supervisor's widget has no storage_path — the setting our own host script does configure and the precondition for a widget having persistent storage. So this is likely a widget config issue rather than a platform limit, but it is UNVERIFIED on hardware and the doc now says so.

Offline media on every player, and a revision so the cache can still be updated
Two halves of the same problem. A screen has to keep playing when the link is gone, and it must not keep playing the wrong thing once the link is back. CACHING FOR OFFLINE, on the players that could not: - Tizen cached nothing but the playlist, so a panel came back from a reboot knowing exactly what to show and fetched every frame of it from a server that was not there. tizen/js/media-cache.js caches the media itself to wgt-private (the store Tizen documents as surviving reboots), resumable via Range and If-Range, with the transfer async so a stalled chunk cannot freeze the player. offline.cache moves from "absent" to a runtime claim: a build with no writable private storage still says nothing. - The web player's worker stored only what a single fetch() happened to complete, which on a marginal link is nothing at all — a 200MB asset never finishes in one go and every retry starts from zero. It now accumulates in resumable chunks, driven by the player's playlist rather than by playback, so the prefetch is not competing with the video that is currently on screen for the same scarce bandwidth. BrightSign inherits this. STILL UPDATING, which caching quietly breaks: PUT /api/content/:id/replace changes an asset's bytes under a stable id. Every cache keys on that id, so before this the new bytes could not reach a panel that already held the old ones — not until the next refresh, but never. Content now carries a revision, stamped onto each item at send time like widget revs, and every player keys its cache on it. The same send-time refresh fixes a second bug: a replace writes a new randomly-named file and unlinks the old one, so the filepath in a published snapshot pointed at a deleted file and web panels 404'd on the item until somebody republished the playlist. The route now also pushes to affected devices, which it never did. Bytes are kept only where they can be built upon: no validator means no safe resume, so the partial is discarded and the attempt backs off as the failure it is rather than re-fetching the same prefix forever. Server needed no new transfer support — res.sendFile already does Range, If-Range and 416. The Tizen cache and the service worker are both driven in Node against fakes, because neither can be exercised without hardware and "the chunks assemble correctly" is not something to discover from a panel showing a corrupt video.

web player: declare capabilities at runtime, persist them, and audit all four players
The dashboard offered every control to every display, so a browser tab showed a reboot button that could never work. server/lib/player-capabilities.js defines the vocabulary; this makes the web player actually speak it. The declaration is computed, not constant, because the same index.html is BOTH the browser player and the BrightSign player. system.reboot / display.power / display.resolution / system.self_update are claimed only when BS.hasHost() answers — deliberately hasHost() and not isBrightSign(), since the UA check is also true for a widget built without node integration, which can reach none of them. Screenshots, offline cache, transitions and native sync are each probed the same way. Capabilities were never persisted: the column and the handler did not exist, so a declaration would have been sent and silently dropped. Added the migration and applyCapabilities(). An ABSENT declaration leaves the column NULL so the baseline still applies — several hundred fielded displays declare nothing and would otherwise lose every control at once — while an EMPTY declaration is stored as '[]' and honoured. docs/player-parity.md records every capability against all four players with a reason for each "no", and flags three Tizen baseline errors found while verifying it. Tests: 1109/1109. Both inline <script> blocks in index.html parse clean. |
