Two bugfixes: Dispatcharr streams showing Alive with blank stats, and the Linux AppImage crashing on startup under Wayland.

Dispatcharr streams no longer scan blank (#196)

Dispatcharr briefly returns HTTP 503 while a channel is stopping. IPTV Checker used to open each stream twice — once for the liveness check, again for ffmpeg diagnostics — and the second connection could race that teardown window, leaving green rows with no codec, resolution, bitrate, or thumbnail.

Dispatcharr proxy URLs (/proxy/ts/stream/{id}) are now detected and checked in a single ffmpeg pass that covers liveness, metadata, screenshot, and bitrate. Empty diagnostic runs are retried within Dispatcharr's teardown window, and a stream with no decodable tracks is now correctly marked Dead with the actual ffmpeg error instead of a hollow Alive.

Linux AppImage works on Wayland again (#197)

On newer Mesa-based Wayland distros (CachyOS and friends) the AppImage aborted with EGL_BAD_PARAMETER before ever showing a window. The cause: Tauri's bundler was copying libraries from the Ubuntu build host — like an old libwayland-client — that clash with the target system's drivers.

AppImages are now hardened at build time: host-coupled libraries (Wayland, D-Bus, PulseAudio, systemd/udev, OpenGL/EGL, Vulkan/OpenCL/VA-API) are stripped so your distro's own drivers are used, while the self-contained WebKitGTK/GStreamer runtime stays bundled. Every release AppImage is verified before upload, and an internal benchmarking binary that was accidentally shipping in Linux bundles is gone.
