Each playlist item can carry schedule blocks (active days, start/end
time-of-day, optional start/end dates). An item plays when the screen's
local "now" matches at least one block; an item with no blocks always
plays. #74 covers time-of-day/day-of-week windows including overnight
wrap; #75 covers inclusive date ranges (auto-expiry). Evaluation is
on-device, so dayparting and expiry work offline.
- Shared evaluator contract: shared/schedule-vectors.json (39 vectors —
DST US+AU, overnight-wrap anchoring, timezone correctness, date
boundaries). Canonical JS evaluator in server/lib/schedule-eval.js;
Kotlin and Tizen ports kept in lockstep by drift guards (Tizen byte-diff
test, Kotlin JUnit reads the shared JSON, new android-test CI job).
- All three players (web, Android, Tizen) filter by schedule against their
own clock, idle with a "Nothing scheduled" message + 30s re-check when
everything is filtered, and fail open on any evaluator error.
- Editor: per-item schedule modal + row badge in the playlist editor;
client validation mirrors the server; editing marks the playlist draft.
- Part B (behaviour change): device/group schedule overrides now evaluate
in each device's effective timezone instead of server-local time.
- Device detail shows the reported timezone + a clock-skew warning.
- i18n for en/es/fr/de/pt across all new strings (namespaced itemsched.*
to avoid colliding with the device-schedule calendar's schedule.*).
- CHANGELOG documents the feature, the Part B change, the fail-open
guarantee, and the scheduled-single-video re-render tradeoff.

Short-lived per-device queue covers the TV-flap window (issue #3):
when a device is mid-reconnect, prior code emitted to an empty room
and the event vanished. Now playlist-updates and commands targeting
an offline device are queued and flushed in order on the next
device:register for that device_id.
server/lib/command-queue.js (new):
- pendingPlaylistUpdate: per-device marker (rebuild via builder on
flush -> always fresh DB state, no stale snapshots)
- pendingCommands: per-device Map<type, payload> with last-of-type
dedup (most recent screen_off wins)
- TTL via COMMAND_QUEUE_TTL_MS env (default 30000)
- Active sweep every 30s prunes expired entries
Memory bounds: ~6 entries per device worst case (1 playlist marker
+ 5 command types), unref'd sweep timer.
Wired emit sites (8 total; the four direct socket.emit calls in
deviceSocket register handlers are intentionally NOT queued because
the socket is alive by definition at those points):
- server/routes/video-walls.js (pushWallPayloadToDevice)
- server/routes/device-groups.js (pushPlaylistToDevice)
- server/routes/content.js (content-delete fan-out)
- server/routes/playlists.js (pushToDevices + assign)
- server/services/scheduler.js (scheduled rotations)
- server/ws/deviceSocket.js x2 (wall leader reclaim/reassign)
server/ws/deviceSocket.js register paths now call flushQueue after
heartbeat.registerConnection + socket.join. Existing
socket.emit('device:playlist-update', ...) lines kept - they send
the initial state on register; the flush replays any queued events.
Player's handlePlaylistUpdate fingerprint check dedupes the
overlap.

Phase 4 group scheduling: schema migration adds group_id to schedules with
CHECK constraint, scheduler evaluates group+device schedules with priority,
group deletion converts schedules to per-device copies. Dashboard gets
playlist assignment dropdown and current playlist label on group headers.
Player persists audio unlock state in localStorage so version reloads
don't lose audio on unattended displays.

Schedule CRUD now includes playlist_id field. List queries join playlist name.
Scheduler tracks active overrides per device and reverts to original
playlist/layout when no schedule is active.

Replaces the assignments-table query with a playlist_items query keyed on
device.playlist_id. Also eliminates the duplicate payload builder in
scheduler.js — it now calls the shared buildPlaylistPayload.
