1.3.2

HDR — hdr-toys Pipeline

• Replaced the old 3-mode HDR system (Off / SDR with HDR / Normal HDR) with a proper shader-based pipeline powered by hdr-toys.
• Four HDR modes are now available: BT.2100 PQ (HDR10), BT.2100 HLG, BT.2020, and Linear HDR (mpv-native, no shaders).
• 77 GLSL shaders are bundled in the app and copied to the mpv config directory on first use — no manual setup required.
• The HDR panel no longer shows an "Off" option. Off is the default and is toggled by the HDR button; the panel only presents the four active modes.
• Selecting a mode while GPU Next + Vulkan is unavailable shows a clear error pill and falls back to Off safely.
• Added boostSdrToHdr preference (used by the Linear HDR path).
• HdrToysManager cleanly removes all hdr-toys shaders when switching to Off or when the pipeline is not ready, so no stale shaders leak between sessions.

Thermal & Battery Improvements

• Added ThermalMonitor — samples PowerManager.getThermalHeadroom() (Android 11+) every 10 seconds during playback.
• Ambient shader sample budget is automatically capped based on thermal headroom: 8 samples (severe), 12 (moderate), 18 (mild), uncapped (cool).
• Anime4K is proactively downgraded to C/Fast when thermal headroom drops below 40%, before frame drops even start.
• Ambient shader recompilation is now skipped when all parameters are identical to the last compiled version — reduces unnecessary GPU stutter on orientation changes and no-op callbacks.
• Removed redundant dual position polling: the event-driven time-pos observer and the polling loop were both updating the same StateFlow, causing double seek-bar recompositions on every MPV event.
• Background playback position poll interval halved from 250 ms to 500 ms when controls are not visible, cutting idle JNI wake-ups by 50%.

Stats Page 6 — Fixes

• GPU estimate bar fixed: was using cumulative drop + delay totals that drifted to 100% after long sessions and added a fixed FPS-proportional baseline (120fps with zero drops showed 70% GPU load). Now uses per-second delta counts relative to the current frame rate — 0 drops = 0%, all frames dropped = 100%.
• CPU label corrected: relabelled from "CPU Usage" to "App CPU (this process)" to accurately reflect that getElapsedCpuTime() measures only MpvRx's own process, not the whole device.
• Frame drop text now shows per-second deltas alongside the all-time totals, so you can tell current rendering pressure at a glance.
• Pause-aware poll backoff: the stats loop backs off from 1 s to 2 s intervals when playback is paused, cutting pointless JNI calls when metrics are static.

Gesture & Action Overlay Toggles

• Added a new "Gesture & Action Overlays" section in Player Settings with seven independent on/off switches:
  • Volume slider overlay — vertical pill shown during volume swipe
  • Brightness slider overlay — vertical pill shown during brightness swipe
  • Hold speed overlay — speed badge and slider shown during long-press speed boost
  • Aspect ratio feedback — pill shown when cycling aspect ratio
  • Zoom level feedback — pill shown when pinching to zoom
  • Repeat & shuffle feedback — pill shown when toggling repeat or shuffle
  • Action feedback pills — brief text pills from custom buttons, ambient toggle, subtitle drag, and Lua/JS scripts
• All overlays default to on, so existing behaviour is unchanged until the user opts out.
• Disabling an overlay suppresses only the visual pill — the underlying gesture action (volume change, speed change, etc.) still happens normally.
