* feat(widgets): add directory-search widget
An interactive, walk-up search view of an existing directory-board. It
references a source board by id (no data copy), so a venue can run the
scrolling board on a main screen and a search view on a tablet, letting
people find an entry instantly.
Server (routes/widgets.js):
- register 'directory-search' + renderDirectorySearch(): resolves the source
board, inlines its categories as one \u003c-guarded JSON blob, renders all
text via textContent (XSS-safe), live case-insensitive filter over
identifier/name/subtitle (debounced), grouped results, available styling,
optional touch on-screen QWERTY keyboard that drives the same filter path.
- missing / non-directory-board source -> friendly full-page fallback, not a 500.
- live-sync while open is out of scope; left a // TODO for a poll hook.
Frontend editor (views/widgets.js): type + magnifier icon, source-board
dropdown (from loaded widgets, filtered to directory-board), title, logo
(reuses the board's picker), placeholder text, theme, on-screen-keyboard toggle;
getConfigFromForm case. i18n: widget.dirsearch.* + type keys in en/es/it/de/pt/fr.
docs: openapi widget_type enum. Tests: server/test/directory-search.test.js.

* feat(widgets): live-sync for directory-search (poll source board, no reload)
Reflect directory-board edits on an open directory-search page without a reload.
- New public GET /api/widgets/:id/data.json returns { categories } for a
directory-board (404 for missing/wrong-type so the page keeps last-good data
on a transient miss). CORS-open (ACAO:*) + no-store so a null-origin sandboxed
widget iframe can read it; exposes only data already public via /render.
Exempted from CSP + auth in server.js alongside /render.
- directory-search page inlines its source_widget_id and polls the board's
data.json every 30s via a relative URL (works behind a proxy/base path and
from a null-origin iframe). Only rebuilds + rerenders when the data actually
changed, so a mid-search view isn't disturbed; skips while document.hidden;
keeps last-good data on any fetch error. Flatten logic factored into
buildFlat() and reused by the poll.
Tests: data.json feed (categories, CORS header, 404s) + poll wiring in
directory-search.test.js (13/13). Verified live in a browser (page.clock
fast-forward): editing the board updates the search page with no reload.

* fix(android): let player WebViews take touch focus for interactive widgets
directory-search is served through the existing generic widget path
(loadUrl <server>/api/widgets/:id/render), so it already renders on Android
with JS + DOM storage + mixed-content enabled, same-origin (so its live-sync
fetch of the source board's data.json works), and no touch blocking.
Add isFocusable/isFocusableInTouchMode to the shared WebView config so the
search field reliably takes a tap/cursor inside the kiosk lock-task WebView.
Harmless for passive widgets (board/YouTube have no focusable inputs); the
widget's own on-screen keyboard still drives the filter when the system IME
is suppressed. Verified with :app:compileDebugKotlin.

* feat(diagnostics): device incident log — why a screen went offline/black, with device-attested cause
Field request (Bold/s_t_r_o_b_e): "screens go offline randomly — let us see the cause." Answers it
across the fleet with a unified incident log, and — the key insight — lets the DEVICE disambiguate
the cause the server can't: if the app process survived the gap it was a NETWORK problem (not a
reboot), and it can even tell a dropped Wi-Fi/Ethernet link from a link-up-but-server-unreachable
(router/upstream) failure.
Schema:
- device_status_log gains reason + detail (WHY each offline transition happened).
- NEW device_events table (unified incident feed): type (offline/online/display_off/display_on/
crash/reboot/network/app_error) + reason + detail, indexed, age-pruned + per-device capped.
Server:
- Capture the socket.io disconnect REASON (transport_close/ping_timeout/transport_error) instead of
discarding it — recorded in the offline-cause log. devices.offline_reason stays on the EXIT-SIGNAL
contract (crashed/clean_exit/silent) — a separate axis, preserved (violent death = 'silent').
- device:event handler (typed incidents) + device:connectivity-report handler (device-attested).
lib/incident-classify.js (pure, unit-tested) composes reason+detail: cold_start->reboot;
link_lost->network "Wi-Fi/Ethernet link lost"; else network "LAN up, server unreachable
(router/upstream)"; appends SSID / weak-signal (rssi<-75) / IP-changed. On a report it upgrades the
most-recent offline row from the server's guess to the device's ground truth.
- heartbeat timeout -> 'heartbeat_timeout'; retention/cap for device_events.
- Device-detail API returns statusLog.reason/detail + the last 50 device_events.
Device (Android WebSocketService): ConnectivityManager default-network callback (link-lost during a
gap) + Wi-Fi SSID/RSSI + IP snapshot -> device:connectivity-report on reconnect (app survived =>
network); ACTION_SCREEN_ON/OFF receiver -> device:event display_on/off ("screen went black"). All
guarded/feature-detected; no manifest change; compiles clean.
Web + Tizen players: reconnect connectivity-report (link_lost from navigator.onLine during the gap)
+ visibilitychange -> display_off/on. Best-effort (no wifi detail in a browser). Tizen exit-signal
marker slice untouched.
CMS (device-detail): the offline cause on the uptime-timeline hover + a new "Recent incidents" panel
(merged offline periods + typed events, friendly labels, detail, relative time + down-duration).
Built as a 4-way parallel agent fan-out over disjoint domains against a locked contract, then
integrated. Verified: full server suite 443/443 (incl. the seam fix keeping the exit-signal contract
intact), Android compileDebugKotlin clean, all players + CMS node -c clean.

* feat(diagnostics): internet-reachability probe — split "our server down" from "no internet" (#170)
Follow-up to the incident log: when a device's link is UP but it's offline, "router/upstream" was a
catch-all. The device now probes a public host (1.1.1.1 / 8.8.8.8 :443) DURING the gap, so the cause
pinpoints blame:
- link_lost=true -> Wi‑Fi/Ethernet link lost (device's own link)
- link up, internet_ok=true -> server_down: internet reachable, OUR server was unreachable
- link up, internet_ok=false -> no_internet: router/ISP down
- link up, no probe result -> generic router/upstream (unchanged fallback)
- Android WebSocketService: fire a short daemon-thread TCP probe (443, either host) at disconnect;
the result rides the connectivity-report as internet_ok (omitted if the gap ends before it finishes).
- lib/incident-classify.js: 3-way split on internet_ok; new reasons server_down / no_internet.
- Frontend i18n: device.event.server_down / .no_internet labels.
- Tests: +3 classify cases (server_down, no_internet, link_lost wins over internet_ok). 12/12.
Verified: classify 12/12, Android compileDebugKotlin clean, node -c clean. Refs #170.

* feat(diagnostics): log an 'upgrade' incident (old → new app_version) — server-side (#170)
When a device reports an app_version different from the stored one, applyDeviceInfo logs an
'upgrade' device_events row (detail 'old → new'). Server-side, so it covers Android/Tizen/web with
no client change; a fresh pair (no prior version) isn't counted. Adds device.event.upgrade label.

* fix(content): rotation-aware media dimensions — portrait no longer stored landscape (#170)
Ingest recorded CODED width/height and ignored rotation, so a portrait phone video
(coded 1920x1080 + 90° Display-Matrix) or a portrait photo (EXIF orientation 6) was
stored LANDSCAPE. The player then rendered it wrong-aspect and letterboxed — the
"portrait content degraded + blue bar at the bottom" symptom in #170. The reporter's
workaround (pre-rotate + mark Landscape) is exactly what this bug forces.
- lib/media-orientation.js (new): pure, unit-tested display-dimension helpers = single
source of truth for ingest AND the backfill. videoDisplayDims() reads the modern
Display-Matrix side_data rotation (falls back to the legacy tags.rotate, sign-normalized);
imageDisplayDims() honors EXIF orientation 5..8. Odd quarter-turns swap W/H.
- lib/content-ingest.js: use the helpers for stored dims; add sharp .rotate() so image
THUMBNAILS are auto-oriented too (video thumbs were already auto-rotated by ffmpeg).
- scripts/backfill-rotation-dims.js (new): idempotent, dry-run-by-default maintenance to
correct already-uploaded portrait media (re-probe -> fix dims -> regenerate image thumbs).
- test/media-orientation.test.js: 5 bites (tag + Display-Matrix, sign/normalize, EXIF 5..8,
the blue-bar landscape->portrait case, null-safety).
Scopes #170 to its residual-on-1.9.4 issues; the 1.9.3 "never displays" slice was #162 +
the remote_url-null download fix, already shipped in 1.9.4. The slow low-res/orientation-
cycling first load is tracked separately in #170 pending repro data.
Refs #170.

* fix(android): honor EXIF orientation in ImageLoader so portrait photos render upright (#170)
Completes the rotation-aware media fix on the PLAYER side. The server ingest fix (this
branch) corrects stored dimensions + auto-orients the thumbnail, but the panel draws the
full-res original via BitmapFactory, which ignores EXIF — so a portrait photo (landscape
pixels tagged "rotate 90") still rendered sideways on the screen. QA root-cause pass on
#170 caught this gap: the Android player reads no stored dims and applied no EXIF.
ImageLoader now reads the EXIF orientation (from the file for cached content, from the byte
stream for remote_url images — ExifInterface(stream) is API 24+, minSdk is 24) and rotates/
flips the decoded bitmap via a Matrix (all 8 orientations). NORMAL/UNDEFINED is a no-op (no
extra allocation); a transformed copy recycles the source; OOM falls back to the source
rather than crashing. Videos were already correct (ExoPlayer honors the rotation matrix).
Verified: :app:compileDebugKotlin clean.
Refs #170. Rides with the server rotation-dims fix on this branch.

* feat(system-control): Tier 0/1 controls with no device-owner dependency [#160]
Track A of the system-control split (Track B = device owner, shipped in #168). Ships the
capabilities that need NO device owner, with graceful per-tier degradation.
Capability reporting (keystone):
- DeviceInfo now reports can_write_settings / accessibility_enabled / overlay_granted
alongside the existing tier/device_owner flags; server persists them (3 additive device
columns, older APKs default to 0); dashboard gates controls + shows what's grantable.
Android SystemControl (new, all best-effort / no-op when unsupported):
- Tier 0 (no permission): media volume (AudioManager STREAM_MUSIC), per-window brightness
(WindowManager.LayoutParams.screenBrightness — dims our window only).
- Tier 1 (WRITE_SETTINGS): system-wide brightness + screen-off timeout (Settings.System).
- Commands set_volume / set_brightness / set_system_brightness / set_screen_timeout wired
in MainActivity.onCommand; ALLOWED_COMMANDS extended for the group path.
- SetupActivity gains a one-time WRITE_SETTINGS grant row (mirrors the overlay/accessibility
grants); manifest declares WRITE_SETTINGS.
Dashboard:
- device-detail "System control" section (any Android panel): volume + this-app brightness
sliders always; system brightness + sleep-timeout only when the panel reports
can_write_settings, else a "grant on the panel" hint. Sends on release (not drag).
Validated live on a non-owner tier-0 panel: dashboard → set_volume 0.75/0.15 → the panel's
STREAM_MUSIC volume moved to 11/2 (of 15). 423 server tests green.
Closes#160.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix(system-control): volume slider reflects real volume + device-owner brightness/timeout [#160]
Two fixes from live testing:
1. Volume "doesn't remember" — the slider hardcoded 50 because the panel never reported its
current volume. Now DeviceInfo reports media_volume (0..1); a new lightweight device:info
socket event lets the panel re-report right after a set_volume (no full re-register / playlist
re-push); server stores devices.media_volume; the dashboard inits the slider from it.
Validated: dashboard set_volume 0.60 -> panel STREAM_MUSIC 2->9 (of 15) -> stored 0.60.
2. System brightness/timeout on a DEVICE OWNER — was gated only on WRITE_SETTINGS, which an
owner doesn't have. A device owner can set those via DevicePolicyManager.setSystemSetting
with no grant, so SystemControl now takes that path when isDeviceOwner(), and the dashboard
enables the Tier-1 controls when can_write_settings OR tier===2. STPolicy.setSystemSetting added.
deviceSocket device_info UPDATE extracted into applyDeviceInfo(), shared by device:register and
device:info. Migration: devices.media_volume REAL (additive). 423 server tests green.

* feat(system-control): brightness/timeout remember + move controls into a tab [#160]
Same "remember what it's set to" treatment as volume, now for brightness + sleep timeout, and
the System control section moves off the top into its own "Controls" tab.
Reporting (DeviceInfo -> device:info re-report -> devices columns -> dashboard slider init):
- system_brightness (read from Settings.System, no permission) + screen_off_timeout_ms.
- window_brightness: persisted in ServerConfig (survives relaunch, re-applied on MainActivity
launch) so the per-window slider reflects it too.
- reportInfoNow() now also fires after set_brightness / set_screen_timeout.
Dashboard: new "Controls" tab (any Android panel) holding the volume/brightness/timeout controls;
every control inits from the reported value; sleep dropdown preselects the current timeout.
Server: +3 additive columns (system_brightness, window_brightness, screen_off_timeout_ms); the
device_info UPDATE stores them. Migrations all additive/re-runnable. 423 server tests green.
Validated live: set_brightness 0.40 -> stored window_brightness 0.40; volume 0.30 -> 0.33.

* feat(group-sync): synchronized playback per group (server + Android) [stage 1]
Play a group's shared playlist in lockstep across its displays — start/end items
together — by reusing the video-wall sync primitive with the spatial transform
removed and keyed on group_id instead of wall_id.
Server:
- device_groups += sync_enabled + leader_device_id (optional pin).
- buildPlaylistPayload emits a group_sync:{group_id, is_leader} block ONLY for a
member whose playlist matches the group's shared playlist (playlist-match guard —
a mismatched member is ignored, never synced). Membership via device_group_members.
- Leader auto-election: pinned-if-online -> first online matching member -> stable
fallback; computed (never persisted, so the operator's pin is preserved).
- group:sync / group:sync-request relay among eligible members (mirrors wall:sync,
guarded on membership + playlist match).
- Self-heal: re-push payloads to group members on (re)connect so is_leader refreshes.
- PUT /api/device-groups/:id accepts sync_enabled + leader_device_id and re-pushes.
Android:
- WallController is now mode-aware. WALL = transform + object-fit:fill + forced
follower-mute (UNCHANGED — every wall branch is byte-equivalent when isGroup=false).
GROUP = same leader/follower timing incl. the full video drift controller, but
full-screen (no transform), normal fit, and per-item mute honored (no forced mute).
- WebSocketService: emitGroupSync/emitGroupSyncRequest + onGroupSync/onGroupSyncRequest.
- MainActivity: dispatch emit by mode, parseGroupConfig, onPlaylistUpdate group hook.
Wall path is provably unchanged (additive mode, defaults to WALL). Kotlin compiles;
server suite 407/407.
Stage 2 (follow-up): web + Tizen parity, dashboard sync toggle + leader picker,
offline-sweep leader promotion.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* feat(group-sync): web + Tizen player parity [stage 2]
Mirror the Android group-sync generalization in the two web-based players so a group
with a shared playlist syncs across mixed player types, not just Android.
Web player (server/player/index.html):
- group:sync / group:sync-request handlers (index jump + latency-compensated video
drift, same maths as wall:sync) — no audio policy here, per-item mute honored.
- emitGroupSync() + applyGroupSync() (4Hz leader broadcast; follower sync-request).
NO CSS transform, NO forced mute (unlike applyWallMode).
- isFollower now also true for a group follower (suppresses self-advance).
- handlePlaylistUpdate handles data.group_sync (mutually exclusive with wall).
Tizen (tizen/js/player.js WallController + app.js):
- WallController is mode-aware: WALL styles the slice + forced follower semantics
(UNCHANGED when mode !== 'group'); GROUP clears any wall styling (full-screen) and
drives leader/follower timing only. syncId()/clearStageStyle() helpers; emitSync/
onSync/onSyncRequest key the event + id off the mode.
- app.js: group:sync/request socket handlers; onPlaylist enters group sync on a
group_sync block, else exits — content renders through the normal single-zone path.
Realigned the v4-exit-signal-phase3 TIZEN slice (682->696) shifted by the app.js edits.
Wall path is provably unchanged in both (additive group mode). Server suite 407/407;
both players' JS parse.

* feat(group-sync): dashboard UI — sync toggle + leader picker [stage 3]
On each group's header row:
- "Sync" checkbox -> PUT /api/groups/:id { sync_enabled } enables synchronized
playback; server re-pushes to members so they enter/exit sync mode. A hint notes
it needs a group playlist and that a display on a different playlist is ignored.
- When on, a "Leader: Auto / <display>" picker -> { leader_device_id } (null = auto-
elect, which self-heals; or pin a specific member to always lead when online).
Adds api.updateGroup(id, data) and the en i18n strings (en-only, mirroring the
existing per-group UI keys; the i18n parity test is apitoken-scoped).
Frontend parses (ESM); server suite 407/407.

* feat(group-sync): rework to clock/schedule sync + double-buffer + polish
Replace the leader/follower relay model with clock/schedule sync. Every
same-playlist member derives the identical (index, position) locally from a
server-disciplined clock + the deterministic playlist schedule, so sync:
- needs no server at play-time (offline-native), and
- has no leader role to double-elect (kills the split-brain class the leaked
WallController tick produced).
Server
- heartbeat-ack now carries server_ms + echoes client_ms for NTP-style clock
discipline; the client caches the offset (survives an outage).
- POST /groups/:id/resync -> group:resync (manual "Resync now").
- (kept: group_sync payload; leader machinery is now vestigial/ignored.)
Clients (web / Tizen / Android)
- Clock offset disciplined over the heartbeat, cached (localStorage / prefs).
- Schedule engine: pos = (syncedNow mod Sum(duration_sec)) with a CANONICAL
slot formula identical across platforms so mixed-platform groups can't drift.
- Snap-on-load: a fresh clip hard-seeks ONCE to the exact position (was ~5s of
gentle nudge to eat a ~0.3s load offset); steady-state keeps the gentle nudge.
- Double buffer: warm the next clip a few s before the boundary -> instant
switch, no black hold. Android pre-decodes on a throwaway surface so the swap
doesn't flash one wrong-aspect (landscape-stretched) frame.
- In-place duration edits: duration_sec dropped from the change signature and
applied in place, so a duration edit re-anchors the schedule WITHOUT a restart.
- Live-log shows discrete corrections (jump/align/seek) immediately; only the
steady-state line is throttled.
Android
- Fix leaked WallController leader tick: onDestroy() now stops it (Handler on the
main looper outlived the Activity -> zombie broadcaster / split-brain).
Dashboard
- Group leader picker -> "Resync now" button.
Tests: heartbeat-ack clock fields + resync route; exit-signal .wgt slice realigned.

Lets an operator (or an MDM) own updates instead of the app self-installing, which
on managed panels shows a self-install confirm dialog over customer content
(#155). Three layered controls:
- GLOBAL (server): config.otaEnabled from OTA_ENABLED (default on). When off,
/api/update/check returns update_available:false, reason:ota_disabled_global —
the whole instance stops offering updates.
- PER-DEVICE (server + dashboard): new devices.ota_enabled column (default 1). When
0, that device is never offered an update (reason:ota_disabled_device). A
"Self-update (OTA)" toggle in the device settings flips it via PUT /api/devices/:id.
- AUTO-DETECT (Android): UpdateChecker stands down entirely when a foreign device
owner (an MDM/DPC) manages the panel — detected via getActiveAdmins() + not being
device owner ourselves. Pure client-side, errs safe, needs no server change.
The two server gates are enforced server-side so they cover EVERY client version,
not just ones with the client-side stand-down. When OTA is off the device still
reports its version (dashboard sees state); the MDM/operator owns the actual update.
For an MDM-managed fleet (e.g. Pivot/MAXHUB), turn OTA off and let the MDM push the
APK — the install-dialog race disappears from every angle.
Tests: +2 (per-device gate + a real OTA_ENABLED=false server for the global gate);
full server suite 393 pass; Android compiles.

Client-side fixes to the Android signage player, all validated end-to-end on a
Pixel-10 emulator (Android 16) against the alpha server.
- content download: a local item with "remote_url": null was mis-tagged as a
remote stream (org.json optString returns the STRING "null" for a JSON null),
so it was ack'd "ready" and NEVER downloaded — stranding the screen on
"waiting for content" and only ever playing 1 of N files. Guard with isNull().
- playback (#162): PlaylistController trusted isRunning+currentIndex as "already
playing" and never re-called playItem, permanently stranding a panel on
"waiting for content" after a restart/OTA/content-not-ready-at-first-start.
Guards now require hasContentOnScreen (a genuine render) before short-circuiting.
- provisioning: revert to the URL-entry screen if a connect attempt hangs >60s
(wrong/unreachable URL) instead of an endless "Connecting to server…".
- re-pair: a server rejection (device:unpaired / auth-error) left the device
connected-but-unregistered with no pairing code (stuck); a naive re-register
then stormed the #150 reclaim guard ~20x/s. Now: re-register once, debounced +
backed off; honor the reclaim-settle window with a stable "re-pairing available
in Xs" countdown; show the code only once the server accepts it (isPairingCodeLive).
- status: a fully-online device could sit on a stale "Connecting to server…" when
MainActivity was relaunched (CLEAR_TASK) after the service already registered —
it now pulls a fresh playlist on bind so the real state renders.
- setup: add a Default Launcher (HOME role) step so a kiosk can be set as the
default launcher without adb (prevents ~45s activity-recreate churn).
- debug: new DebugLog.v() streams the deep download/playback trace only while
live dashboard debug is enabled; silent in production.

- Remove stray brace that broke compilation (MainActivity line 985)
- Server generates unique 6-digit PIN per device during pairing
- PIN stored in encrypted SharedPreferences (ServerConfig.settingsPin)
- Fallback: generate random PIN locally if server doesn't send one
- Include settings_pin in device:paired on pair + reconnect
- DB migration: settings_pin column on devices table
- Hint changed from hardcoded 0000 to generic 'PIN' string
The player opened duplicate/rapid WebSocket connections for the same device_id: connect() was
unconditional (disconnect + forceNew socket) and reachable from every lifecycle entry point
(boot, service start, MainActivity/ProvisioningActivity bind, foreground re-bind, START_STICKY).
A ROM that re-binds on foreground (MAXHUB PROC_STATE_TOP, isBindService:true) therefore
re-invoked connect() repeatedly -> a burst of sockets, each evicted by the next (the 8-in-9s
storm). Fire TV never re-binds like that, so it never reproduced.
- ConnectionGuard (new, pure/testable — service is the shell, per the OtaThrottle pattern):
shouldOpenNewSocket(hasSocket, sameUrl, socketActive) — reuse a live/self-healing socket to
the same url; open a new one only when none is usable.
- WebSocketService: connect() is now idempotent (@Synchronized + ConnectionGuard) — every entry
point reuses the one socket, never opens a duplicate; body split into openSocket(). socketActive
/ currentUrl track the single socket.
- Single owner: onStartCommand now calls connect() so the SERVICE owns the one connection
(idempotent across START_STICKY restarts), not whichever activity binds.
- Reconnect discipline: on io server/client disconnect (which Socket.IO does NOT auto-reconnect)
mark the socket inert and schedule exactly ONE backed-off re-open — never a blind re-open loop;
a transport drop keeps socketActive=true so Socket.IO's own reconnect is reused.
Test: ConnectionGuardTest (5, incl. 8-rapid-binds-all-reuse). :app:testDebugUnitTest green
(ConnectionGuard 5, OtaThrottle 7, ScheduleEval 1). NOT bumped/signed/released — Dan builds+signs
with the BMG keystore; 1.9.2-patch2 (server net) covers un-updated devices.
/api/update/check offered the update whenever client !== latest (raw string
inequality, not semver) with no backoff. A device that can't APPLY the update
(broken OTA client 1.7.12, signing/Fire OS) keeps reporting the same version and is
told update_available=true on every poll; a fast poll loop saturates the event loop
(prod loop-lag 49s). All requests share one NAT IP, so IP-keying is useless.
server-only breaker (lib/ota-breaker.js), two independent axes:
- RATE breaker (primary, immediate): a key checking >THRESHOLD (3) times within
WINDOW (60s) is looping -> throttle update_available with exponential backoff
(30s->2m->8m->cap 30m). Healthy devices poll ~12 min and never approach this, so
rollout/stragglers are inherently safe -- NO grace-for-flood timer; slow == safe.
- PHANTOM guard (immediate): unrecognized version, or a prerelease of an OLDER core
(superseded old-minor beta e.g. 1.9.1-beta4), gets no-offer on the first check. A
RECENT real older version (beta3 vs latest beta4; stable 1.7.12) stays offerable.
- Never offers a downgrade (client >= latest -> no offer).
KEYING (#144 option 3): keyed on device_id when present, else reported version.
- server.js:581 accepts + logs ?device_id=, passes it to the breaker.
- UpdateChecker.kt:122 appends &device_id=<config.deviceId> (existing registered id;
omitted until provisioned). One-line client change.
beta4+ clients get precise per-device throttling; stuck legacy clients sending only
?version= are caught by the version-keyed + rate + phantom logic. Response gains
additive `reason` + `retry_after_seconds` (old clients ignore).
BOUNDED STATE: a periodic sweep (startSweep, wired in server.js) evicts buckets idle
> IDLE_RESET_MS so the keyed Map can't grow unbounded (churned device_ids); not
reset-on-access only.
SCOPE (deliberate): this targets the FAST flood + phantoms. The slow #144 drip
(stable 1.7.12 polling ~every 12 min, ~20/hr) stays below >3/60s and is NOT
throttled -- catching it needs #144 option-3 "skip-this-version after N cycles",
which is intentionally NOT in this build.
NOTE: carries a CLIENT/APK change -> versionCode must increment at the beta4 bump and
the release keystore is required for the APK. The device_id path only helps devices
that can install beta4+; the stuck legacy fleet is covered by the version-keyed path.
Tests: unit (lib/ota-breaker, injected time) a-f + comparator + escalation + sweep +
slow-drip-scope; HTTP integration (real endpoint, device_id passthrough). Full suite
green serial AND parallel (234). OTA-only delta -- reconnect/reclaim/shed/content-ack/
block untouched.

Covers API 24 (7.0) + 25 (7.1.2); all 26+ APIs were already guarded with graceful else branches; no dependency bumps. Validated on API 24 + 25 emulators: install, foreground service, #139 OTA verify on the legacy GET_SIGNATURES path (incl. tampered-refuse), EncryptedSharedPreferences, and playback.

Follow-up to the cache/backoff loop fix (aa23cf0): make a device that can't
self-install visible to operators, and fix the signature-verify bug that kept the
whole #139 fix from engaging on the actual Fire OS target.
Dashboard surface (Phase 2):
- devices gains ota_status / ota_target_version / ota_attempts / ota_updated_at
via the idempotent ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN migration (non-destructive,
default-backfilled, idempotent on re-run).
- The device reports ota_status (OtaThrottle.statusFor -> none | pending |
manual_update_required) in device_info; the server persists it on register
(the reconnect backstop). devices d.* already surfaces it to the dashboard.
- Dashboard shows a non-blocking amber badge when manual_update_required
("Update available (vX) - install failed N times, manual update required");
i18n key in en.js (non-en inherits via the en fallback). Server suite +1 test.
Event-driven status (Option B):
- New device:ota-status WS message, emitted on STATE TRANSITIONS only
(enter-backoff -> manual_update_required, clear -> none), so the badge updates
promptly without waiting for a reconnect and without per-poll/heartbeat chatter.
Server handler persists the same fields; an unknown/forged device_id is a safe
no-op. The register-path persist stays as the reconnect backstop.
Signature-verify fix (the critical piece):
verifyApkSignature read the downloaded APK's signer via
getPackageArchiveInfo(GET_SIGNING_CERTIFICATES).signingInfo, but that field is
null for ARCHIVE files on API 28/29 (populated only from API 30). On Fire OS 8
(Android 9 / API 28) - the actual deployment target - this returned 0 certs from
a correctly-signed APK, so every OTA was refused as "tampered," the cache was
deleted, and the full APK re-downloaded every check cycle. This was the real
cause of the #139 re-download loop, NOT a silent-install failure: the cache and
backoff added in this branch sit behind this verify gate and never engaged on
the target.
Fix: below API 30, read the archive's signer via the legacy GET_SIGNATURES +
.signatures (its v1/JAR cert, which IS populated on 28/29). Keep
GET_SIGNING_CERTIFICATES + signingInfo for API >= 30 and for the installed-app
read (which works on 28+). The archive's signer is still extracted and compared
to the installed app's signer; a mismatch or zero-cert APK is still rejected.
This reads the cert correctly on old APIs - it does not weaken verification.
Verified on emulators:
- API 28: verify now passes for a legit APK (was: 0 certs, refused). Full backoff
then engages - 8.5MB pulled once, cache-hit on retries, backoff after 3,
manual_update_required emitted once; clears on successful update.
- API 28 negative: a re-signed (different-key) APK is still refused on cert
MISMATCH - no hole opened.
- API 30: unchanged path still passes (no regression).
- server suite 173/173, OtaThrottleTest 7/7.

Devices that download an OTA APK but cannot silently install it (Fire TV: no
device-owner path) re-downloaded the full APK every check cycle indefinitely -
install never completes, version never advances, next check re-triggers.
Client (UpdateChecker.kt, ServerConfig.kt, OtaThrottle.kt):
- Reuse a cached, signature-verified APK instead of re-downloading every cycle;
delete leftover invalid files; keep the verified APK on disk as the
manual-install artifact.
- Persisted per-version attempt budget (EncryptedSharedPreferences) so it
survives the Fire OS app restarts that drive the loop. An attempt is counted
only when an install is launched - a download/verify failure does not consume
the budget, so a transient network problem cannot park a healthy device in
backoff. After 3 failed installs, back off to one retry per 24h.
- Clear OTA state and caches when a check returns update_available=false while
state is pending (app relaunched as the new version).
- Report OTA status to the dashboard via device:log (tag ota) on state
transitions only (enter-backoff, clear) to avoid flooding the channel.
- Extract throttle decision logic into a pure OtaThrottle object (no Android
deps) with JUnit coverage (OtaThrottleTest) for the state transitions.
Server (server.js):
- Reword /download/apk log from "OTA update in progress" to "APK served" and
rate-limit to once per IP / 10 min so a looping device cannot flood the log.
Note: client-cooperative fix - prevents the loop in cohorts running this APK.
Currently-stuck beta4 devices still require a one-time manual update.

Version bump for the beta6 strobe artifact: VERSION, server package + lock, and
the Android client (versionName 1.9.1-beta6, versionCode 26 so OTA sees it as an
upgrade over beta5/25). Also removes two leftover untracked PiP test scratch files
(frontend/alert-overlay.html, frontend/overlay.js) from a prior session.

Two independent multi-zone bugs, plus operator-facing warnings, i18n, and
regression tests guarding the data contracts.
Bug 1 — per-item mute was a no-op end to end:
- GET /api/devices/:id dropped the `muted` column from its assignments SELECT,
so the dashboard toggle never reflected state (the muted=false case in
particular). Column restored to the device payload.
- Android player now honours the per-item mute flag for YouTube (initial state
+ live via the IFrame JS API).
Bug 2 — items whose zone_id belongs to a different layout were silently dropped:
- Player fallback (web + Android): an orphaned zone_id is recovered into the
largest zone instead of vanishing, with telemetry.
- server/lib/zone-validate.js is the single source of truth for the orphan rule
(zone not in the device's active layout); used by the device payload
(per-item `orphan` flag + `active_layout_zones`) and the device list
(`orphan_count`).
- Assign-time hardening: a stale zone_id (not in the device's active layout) is
cleared to null on POST/PUT rather than persisted as a new orphan.
- scripts/find-orphan-zone-items.js: read-only sweep for existing orphans.
Dashboard warnings (operator-facing, never on the live player):
- Per-item badge + reassign affordance, device-list glance, preview banner.
- Graceful degradation: the zone selector falls back to /api/layouts/:id so it
can't vanish on a stale payload.
i18n: orphan-zone strings added to en/es/fr/de/pt/it (hi falls back by design;
count strings interpolate through tn()).
Tests: server/test/device-zone-contract.test.js adds 5 regression tests for the
data contracts above (muted true/false round-trip, active_layout_zones, orphan
flag + count, orphan-clears-on-reassign, assign-time clearing). 172/172 pass.

Two device-REPORTING fixes from the #134 investigation (the PiP rendering itself
was #135).
1) "Device reconnects every ~45s" was a logging artifact, not instability. The
player re-emits a full device:register on the SAME socket every ~45-60s
(requestPlaylistRefresh) to pull a fresh playlist; the server logged
"Device reconnected" for every register of a known device. The attached 4-day
log showed 1415 "reconnected" vs 30 real socket connects and 0 heartbeat
timeouts — the socket never dropped, so #134's "PiP lost between reconnects"
was a misdiagnosis. Fix: only log a genuine reconnect (new socket); a
same-socket re-register is a refresh (currentDeviceId === device_id) and stays
quiet. The playlist still refreshes.
2) Device reported 720p while the monitor showed a 1080 signal. DeviceInfo
reported getRealMetrics() — the UI RENDER SURFACE — but TV boxes render the UI
at 720p and upscale to a 1080p HDMI signal. Now report BOTH: screen_width/height
= the output mode (Display.Mode.physicalWidth/Height), render_width/height =
the render surface (getRealMetrics). Two new nullable devices columns, stored on
pairing INSERT + reconnect UPDATE, exposed via the device API, shown on the
dashboard as "1920x1080 (UI 1280x720)" when they differ.
Backward compatible (required + verified on emulator): a device that omits
render_* — or sends no device_info at all — still registers, with render_* = null,
on both the INSERT and UPDATE paths. New columns nullable; stores use
`?? null` / `|| null`. All 167 server tests pass.

* fix(#109): render Android PiP overlay above the YouTube WebView video plane
The PiP overlay (#109) returned sent:1 and showed its title in `uiautomator
dump`, but nothing painted on screen while YouTube was playing. By elimination
(YouTube-specific, landscape so no off-screen transform, real on-screen bounds
in the dump) the cause is surface occlusion: pipLayout sat as the last child of
rootLayout — the SAME compositing band as R.id.youtubeWebView — so the playing
video surface drew over it.
Fix (task option 1a): reparent pipLayout out of rootLayout to the window
content (android.R.id.content) as a top-level sibling drawn after rootLayout, so
it composites above the WebView. MainActivity.mirrorTransformToPip() copies
rootView's orientation/wall transform onto it so corner positions still track
the rotated content (web/Tizen parity). show() also bringToFront()+
requestLayout()+invalidate() on attach (covers the cause-3 measure/visibility
path). Remote-view screenshots now capture the content root so the PiP is still
included.
Instrumentation (Phase 1, default OFF): PipOverlay.pipDebug paints a solid
magenta box + border with media on top (box paints even if media never loads)
and logs box/pipLayout/rootView/youtubeWebView geometry over device:log tag
"pip"; loadImageInto also logs on success. Toggled via device:command
{type:"pip_debug"} (routed through MainActivity.onCommand).
Server: POST /api/pip and the clear handler log one concise [pip] dispatch line
(target + sent/offline) so journalctl shows PiP activity.
Validated end-to-end on an emulator (pixel10/API34) paired to an isolated local
server with YouTube playing: no crash, the PiP box composites above the live
video frame (center + top-right), clear removes it, and the portrait transform
mirror rotates the overlay with the stage (no off-screen). The Fire TV
hardware-overlay punch-through still needs real hardware (emulator composites
video inline); pipDebug + docs/109-android-pip-visibility.md cover that.

* fix(#109): image PiPs never painted — set slot token before decode
Emulator e2e of an image PiP (a QR PNG) found the image area always blank (box
background + title only). Pre-existing defect, also on main, independent of the
occlusion reparent.
Root cause in PipOverlay.show(): teardown() clears `current` to null, then
loadImageInto() captured `token = current` (null) as its drop-if-replaced guard,
but `current` was set to the new pip_id AFTER the media was built. The image
decode finishes on a background thread and posts back after show() returns, so
`token != current` (null != pip_id) was always true and every decoded bitmap was
dropped. Web PiPs and the box/title were unaffected, which masked it.
Fix: set `current = pip_id` before building media so loadImageInto's token
matches. Verified on emulator — a QR image PiP now renders over both a static
image and live YouTube (hardware screencap + the app's software view.draw
capture both show it).

* docs(#109): record web PiP (HTML+JS) verification on emulator
Web PiP type loads its WebView and executes JS (a page stamping JS OK · <time>
rendered over live YouTube). No code change — web PiPs don't use the image path
that had the token bug. Completes the image/web/box content-type verification.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* feat(#109): implement PiP close_button on Android (was a documented no-op)
The server forwarded close_button (routes/pip.js) and it's in openapi.yaml, but
no player rendered it — Tizen deferred "close-button focus" as non-MVP, the web
player has none, and Android's PipOverlay never read the flag. So the documented
field did nothing on any device.
Implement it on Android: when close_button:true, a tappable ✕ floats at the box's
top-right in a FrameLayout wrapper that is a SIBLING of the box — so it isn't
clipped by the box outline or dimmed by the overlay opacity. Tapping it clears
THIS overlay (id-matched via the captured token). Only the ✕ is clickable; the
rest of the full-screen pipLayout stays touch-transparent, so taps elsewhere
fall through to the playing content (no input regression).
Verified on the emulator over live YouTube: the ✕ renders at the corner, and
tapping it removes the overlay while the video keeps playing.
Parity note: web/Tizen players still don't implement close_button; D-pad focus
of the ✕ on non-touch TV hardware is intentionally not wired (MVP = touch/pointer,
matching the Tizen focus deferral).

The Android version fields live separately from the root VERSION / server package,
so the beta4 release commit didn't touch them and the APK reported beta3. Bump them so
the client reports beta4 and OTA sees it as newer. The v1.9.1-beta4 tag is intentionally
NOT moved to this commit.

* fix(server): persist + ship + real-time per-item mute (#129)
The dashboard mute toggle was a no-op end to end. The active model is playlist_items
(the device payload is its published_snapshot); the legacy `assignments` table the bug
report cited is unused for devices. Three breaks:
- PUT /api/assignments/:id silently dropped `muted` (only read sort_order/duration_sec/
zone_id). It now accepts muted (coerced 0/1) and ITEM_SELECT returns it, so the toggle
persists and its on/off state sticks.
- playlist_items had no `muted` column — added (schema + idempotent migration).
- buildSnapshotItems didn't select muted, so it never reached the published_snapshot /
device payload — now included.
Real-time: on a mute change, emit device:mute-changed { content_id, widget_id, muted } to
every device on that playlist so the player toggles the matching item's volume live,
decoupled from publish (the value is also in the next snapshot, so it persists). Adds a
[mute] log line (the report noted zero mute log entries).
Test: test/mute.test.js — PUT persists + returns muted, it reaches the published
snapshot, and a non-mute update doesn't reset it. Server suite 164/164.

* fix(player): apply per-item mute live on Android + web (#129)
Honor the new per-item mute from the server, both in real time and on reload.
Android:
- WebSocketService: onMuteChanged callback + main-thread device:mute-changed handler.
- MediaPlayerManager.setVideoMuted(): flips the live ExoPlayer volume on the current
video (YouTube autoplays muted; images/widgets are silent).
- MainActivity: on device:mute-changed, apply immediately if the toggled item is the
one playing now.
- PlaylistController.sig(): include muted so a published mute change re-renders/persists
instead of being de-duped.
Web player (server/player/index.html):
- device:mute-changed handler toggles the current <video>; the video mount now also
honors item.muted so a published mute sticks across reloads.
Tizen intentionally not included: its player mutes ALL video for autoplay, so per-item
unmute isn't achievable there.

* PiP overlay MVP: push image/web overlays to a device or group (#109)
Implements the #109 MVP from docs proposal: a floating overlay PUSHED to a device or
group in real time, rendered above the playlist without disturbing it. Scope is the
MVP only — video/RTSP, MQTT, offline-queue, and the priority/stacking system are
deferred to follow-up PRs as the proposal specifies.
Protocol (/device socket, player-agnostic):
- device:pip-show { pip_id, type:image|web, uri, position, width, height, duration,
title?, title_color?, background_color?, opacity?, border_radius?, close_button? }
- device:pip-clear { pip_id? }
The player fetches uri itself (same trust model as remote_url content; server never
proxies). type:web is full-trust by design, hence the 'full' token scope.
Server (server/routes/pip.js, new; mounted in config/api-surface.js PUBLIC_ROUTERS):
- POST /api/pip and POST /api/pip/clear + DELETE /api/pip, all requireScope('full').
- Resolves device_id to a device OR a group, expands a group to members, and emits
per-device — reusing the group command route's room-size online check and
{device_id, name, status: sent|offline} result shape. Generates pip_id.
- Validates type/position allowlists, uri http(s), numeric bounds on
width/height/duration/opacity/border_radius, colors via the existing VALID_COLOR
(#RRGGBB; transparency is the separate opacity field).
- Workspace-isolated: every target query is scoped to req.workspaceId, so a token
bound to workspace A can't address workspace B (404). Offline devices are reported,
never queued (PiP is ephemeral).
Player overlay layer (Tizen; tizen/js/pip-overlay.js, new):
- A #pip sibling ABOVE #stage that PlaylistPlayer/ZoneRenderer never touch.
- applyOrientation now applies the SAME transform to #pip as #stage, so corner
positions track the visible CONTENT in all four orientations.
- image -> <img>, web -> <iframe> (muted by default: empty allow= denies autoplay),
sized/positioned/styled per payload, optional title bar.
- Single overlay slot, last-show-wins; duration timer (0 = until cleared); pip-clear
(id-aware) or timer tears down; teardown wrapped so a malformed payload can't wedge
the layer. Reports show/clear over device:log (tag 'pip').
Dashboard: a minimal "Send overlay" / "Clear overlay" tester on the device-detail
controls (device/group via the open device, type, uri, position, duration), calling
POST /api/pip through the api helper.
Tests (server suite green, 161/161):
- api.test.js: PiP tier — authz (read/write 403, full passes), workspace isolation
(wsA token -> wsB device 404), payload validation, device + group targeting, clear;
plus the PUBLIC_ROUTERS snapshot-firewall updated for /api/pip.
- pip-overlay.test.js: loads the real player.js + pip-overlay.js in a vm with a DOM
shim; proves the overlay shows, auto-dismisses on the duration timer, and never
changes the playlist signature / touches #stage; web->iframe, last-show-wins,
id-aware clear, malformed-payload safety.
Not in this PR (intentional):
- Android player overlay — fast-follow. Protocol + server are player-agnostic; the
Android layer (an overlay View above the player, orientation-matched to MainActivity's
rootView rotation) is the same shape and lands next.
- OpenAPI docs for POST /api/pip — the contract test's scope heuristic only treats
'command' paths as full-scope, so documenting a full-scope non-command route there
needs that heuristic extended first; deferred with the docs item (proposal §8.6).
- video/rtsp types, MQTT, offline queue-on-reconnect, priority/stacking, arbitrary
(x,y)/selector positioning (proposal §6).

* PiP overlay: add Android + web players (#109)
Extends the #109 PiP MVP to the other two players so the protocol (device:pip-show /
device:pip-clear) is honored fleet-wide, not just on Tizen. No server/protocol changes —
the route and socket messages are player-agnostic; these are the two missing surfaces.
Web player (server/player/index.html):
- New #pipContainer layer above #playerContainer, pointer-transparent, that the playlist
render never touches. The same orientation transform is applied to it as to
#playerContainer (extended to also reset width/height on landscape so a
portrait->landscape switch realigns), so corner positions track the visible content.
- Inline PiP logic mirroring tizen/js/pip-overlay.js: image -> <img>, web -> <iframe>
(muted by default via empty allow=), position/size/bg/opacity/radius/title, single slot
last-show-wins, duration timer (0 = until cleared), id-aware clear, wrapped teardown.
- device:pip-show/clear handlers; reports show/clear over device:log (tag "pip").
Android player:
- activity_main.xml: a pipLayout FrameLayout as the LAST child of rootLayout — it draws
above the content AND inherits rootView's orientation rotation/translation, so corner
positioning is orientation-matched for free.
- PipOverlay.kt (new): builds the overlay box into pipLayout. image -> ImageView (decoded
off-thread via ImageLoader, dropped if torn down mid-decode); web -> WebView with
mediaPlaybackRequiresUserGesture=true (mute-by-default). Gravity-based corner/center
placement with a 4% inset, GradientDrawable bg + corner radius, alpha=opacity, optional
title bar. Single slot last-show-wins; duration timer; id-aware clear; teardown wrapped
and also run on activity destroy (WebView cleanup).
- WebSocketService: onPipShow/onPipClear callbacks + safeOn handlers posted to the main
thread (they build Views) + a sendLog(tag, level, message) emitter for device:log.
- MainActivity: instantiate PipOverlay (log -> wsService.sendLog("pip", ...)), wire the
callbacks, tear down on destroy.
Verified: Android assembleDebug builds clean; web player inline JS parses; server suite
still 161/161 (no server changes this commit). Not yet validated on real hardware —
four-orientation corner positioning mirrors the player container/rootView transform but
should be eyeballed on a panel.

Ports the wall:sync protocol the web and Tizen players already ship to native
Kotlin/ExoPlayer, so the Android player can join a video wall.
- WallController (new): 4Hz leader broadcast; follower latency-compensated drift
controller (hard-seek past 0.3s, gentle +/-3% playbackRate nudge past 0.05s);
role handling with immediate align on entry and on wall:sync-request. Per-tile
rotation intentionally not applied (web/Tizen parity; left as a TODO).
- MediaPlayerManager: expose position/duration/seekExact/setSpeed for the drift
controller; RESIZE_MODE_FILL / ImageView FIT_XY in wall mode (object-fit:fill
parity), restored to fit/fitCenter on exit. Follower mute (setWallMute) persists
across leader-driven item switches, and followers loop (REPEAT_MODE_ONE) so they
never freeze on the last frame if the leader's next index is late.
- PlaylistController: wallFollower flag suppresses auto-advance (leader drives the
index); getIndex/gotoIndex for follower tracking; itemStartedAtMs for non-video
sync position.
- WebSocketService: onWallSync/onWallSyncRequest handlers (posted to the main
thread since they drive ExoPlayer) + emitWallSync/emitWallSyncRequest senders
guarded on socket.connected() like sendPlaybackState.
- MainActivity: parse wall_config in onPlaylistUpdate and branch before the
orientation + multi-zone paths; size/translate rootView to this screen's slice;
exit() restores full screen.
Compiles clean (./gradlew :app:assembleDebug). NOT yet validated on a device or a
real wall — the ExoPlayer seek/speed sync and the slice transform need on-device
tuning before this is trusted.
