The setup screen buttons used a bare <ripple> which only reacts to
state_pressed (touch). D-pad navigation triggers state_focused, which the
ripple ignored, leaving the focused button nearly invisible against the
dark background from TV viewing distance.
Wrap the button shape in a <selector> (kept inside the ripple so touch
still gets the press ripple) that adds a bright 3dp white stroke on
state_focused.
Closes#209

Android and Tizen never emitted device:play-event, so Reports showed Total
Plays / Hours / proof-of-play as all zero for those devices (only the web
player logged plays). Both now emit play_start on show and play_end on
advance/teardown, mirroring the web player's contract (leader-gated for walls,
widget-id fallback so durations close). Server side unchanged — play_logs and
the reports queries were already waiting for the events.
Tizen parity with the web player (from the parity audit):
- audio: landscape <video> honors item.muted (warm-muted for autoplay, then
applies the real state) instead of force-muting; wall followers stay silent
- device:mute-changed: real-time per-item mute of the on-screen video
- device:remote-key: D-pad/volume/mute/home, BACK=info overlay, POWER=screen-off
- device:remote-touch: normalized-coordinate touch injection
- buffered widget swap: reveal the new iframe on load then clear (no black flash)
- diagnostic info overlay toggled by the dashboard BACK key
Still muted on Tizen: the portrait AVPlay video path and transition-composited
video (would need webapis.avplay volume APIs / renderVideoBuffered work).

Pre-release review follow-up to #204: fixes the Android superseded-wipe playlist wedge + GL leak, and adds the stale-item guard to web/Tizen renderVideoBuffered.
Compositor panel-ring board scroll (smooth on Blink+Gecko, no blank-on-refresh), a per-device frame-rate diagnostic widget + dashboard card, and web/Android/Tizen device-id passthrough to widget render URLs.
A solo fullscreen widget (or image) with duration_sec=0 hit an unclamped
scheduleAdvance(item.durationSec * 1000L) in PlaylistController.playCurrentItem,
scheduling a 0ms auto-advance. For a single-item playlist next() re-selects the
same item, so it re-played every looper tick (~20x/sec) — black-screening the TV
and locking the UI (couldn't even reach home). Triggered when a schedule collapses
the playlist to a single always-on duration-0 widget.
Use slotMs() (the max(1, duration||10) contract shared with the web/Tizen players)
so a zero/negative duration floors to 10s. Also floor scheduleAdvance() itself to
MIN_ADVANCE_MS (500ms) as a backstop so no future path can busy-loop the main thread.

The hidden-settings PIN box (2x back) and the change-server URL dialog couldn't be
typed into on kiosk devices: a plain AlertDialog shown over the player's
SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE_STICKY activity never gains window focus, so the soft
keyboard doesn't attach and the EditText gets no cursor. On a panel/Fire TV with
no hardware keyboard that means the PIN can't be entered at all. Pre-existing
(showPinDialog unchanged since it was added; immersive flags since the initial
release) — surfaces on tier-0 kiosk devices where immersive is active.
Fix: shared showImeDialog() applies the standard immersive-dialog IME workaround —
mark the dialog NOT_FOCUSABLE before show() (so it doesn't steal focus and reset
the activity's immersive flags), mirror the immersive systemUiVisibility onto the
dialog, then clear NOT_FOCUSABLE after show() so the IME can attach, force
SOFT_INPUT_STATE_ALWAYS_VISIBLE, and requestFocus the field. Routed both the PIN
and change-server dialogs through it.
Compiles (:app:compileDebugKotlin). IME behavior needs a real tier-0 device to
confirm (can't be exercised headless).

Symptom 1's 'stuck on first load, fixed by toggling the playlist' is stale
download backoff. On a fresh device the first downloads fail while the link is
settling; DownloadCoordinator escalates an exponential backoff (15s..5min cap),
and ensure() then SKIPS those items. The 60s playlist refresh re-fires
onPlaylistUpdate but ensure() still skips them, and backoff was only ever cleared
by forget() (content-delete) — never by a re-assignment. So the item stays stuck
until the 5-min window happens to lapse; toggling the playlist is just a manual
way to wait it out.
Fix (storm-safe — neither reset fires on the routine same-playlist 60s refresh):
1. DownloadCoordinator.resetBackoff(id) / resetAllBackoff() — clear attempts +
nextAttemptAt but KEEP inFlight (single-flight preserved, no duplicate .part).
2. onPlaylistUpdate resets backoff for each item ONLY when the content-id
signature changed (first load, reassignment, toggle-back), then ensures — so a
genuine (re)assignment retries immediately. Same-signature 60s refresh -> no
reset -> the retry-storm guard stays intact.
3. Network onAvailable (was onLost-only) -> resetAllBackoff() + requestPlaylistRefresh,
so content that failed while the link was settling retries the moment real
connectivity arrives.
Tests: DownloadCoordinatorTest — resetBackoff/resetAllBackoff re-attempt a
backed-off item before the clock advances; existing backoff/single-flight tests
unchanged. :app:testDebugUnitTest green.

Vertical Shorts were played in a player forced to 100%x100% on a landscape
frame, so they looked wrong (pillarboxed/small). Option A: detect vertical at
ingest, persist it, and have every player honor it.
- Ingest (routes/content.js): detect a Short from the /shorts/ URL form OR
portrait oEmbed dims (oEmbed now queried with the ORIGINAL url so /shorts/
reports its true dimensions), and persist it as st_aspect=vertical on the
stored embed URL. That's the only signal players get (remote_url), so it must
be captured at ingest, not re-derived per loop. YouTube ignores the unknown
param; players read the video id, not the full URL, to build the embed.
- Players read st_aspect=vertical and center a 9:16 box (fills a portrait screen,
pillarboxes cleanly on landscape) instead of 100%x100%:
web (player/index.html), Android (WebViewSupport.youtubeEmbedHtml), Tizen
(player.js single-zone + zone paths). Dashboard library uses a static thumbnail,
so it's unaffected.
Not doing Option B (yt-dlp): runtime dep + storage/bandwidth + maintenance +
YouTube ToS; embed-disabled Shorts already skip gracefully.
Tests: youtube-shorts.test.js (4) — /shorts/ and portrait-dims tag vertical,
landscape stays untagged, /shorts/ tags even if oEmbed fails. Android compiles;
web player inline JS + Tizen player.js parse.
Note: pre-existing Shorts added before this aren't retagged (would need an oEmbed
backfill) — re-add to fix, or a follow-up migration.

* 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.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* 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.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* 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.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* 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.
