The now-playing screen: Done, a favorite star, and a strip over the clock.

  • Done (bottom left on the Show, left of play on the Spot) stops the music and goes back to the
    clock.
  • The star saves what's playing to your favorites: a Music Assistant track to Music Assistant's
    favorites, a radio station to Radio Favorites. It fills in once it's saved.
  • After a pause in Music Assistant, the page now stays up with a play button, the same as after a
    pause on the screen.
  • On the Show, "Now playing" (under Display, and screen_now_playing in Home Assistant) can put
    the music in a strip across the bottom of the clock after 10 or 30 seconds, or right away. The
    strip has the song, back, play or pause, forward, and an X that stops the music. Your photos keep
    showing behind the clock. Tap the song to bring the full page back. The default is the full page,
    as before.

Wi-Fi recovery says what it did (techo5-dot #3). When the device reconnects its Wi-Fi to recover
from a network key change, the log now records the Wi-Fi state and the kernel's security lines
before and after, with network names and addresses taken out, and whether it worked. A diagnostics
download shows the cause without anyone having to watch the console.

A friendlier installer (techo5-checkers #2). Run it with nothing and it finds the unit (asking
which, if there are several), asks for a name, and asks once, before anything is erased, instead of
halfway through. It says what it's waiting for during the long waits, explains a USB console it
can't open instead of hanging, and on Linux checks up front that you can reach the serial port. Every
question still has a switch, for scripts.

Not yet run on a real device when this was published.
