mesamirh/MovieBox-Tui v0.1.14

on GitHub

Added

• Favorites:
  • Added a Favorites feature for starring whole movies and series (src/favorites.rs, favorites.json), independent of watch history and unaffected by /clear-cache.
  • Added * on the Home screen and f / F on the Details screen to toggle a title's favorite status, with a ★ indicator on favorited rows and a [f] Favorite / [f] Unfavorite hint on the Details screen.
  • Added an arrow-navigable Favorites row on the landing screen (Streaming and Addon modes) showing up to 5 recently-starred titles, with a +N more • /favorites overflow link; Down from the search bar focuses the row, Enter opens the selected title, Esc releases focus.
  • Added the /favorites slash command, mirroring /history, to load the full starred list into the results view; * unstars the selected row there.
  • Added mouse support for the landing Favorites row (select/open rows, open the full list via the overflow line).
  • Extracted cross-provider title-identity matching into SubjectIdentity (src/models.rs), now shared by watch history and Favorites so remakes, cross-provider duplicates, and movie/series title collisions are deduplicated identically.

Fixed

• External player failure reporting: Treat every non-zero player exit, including exits after several seconds or without stderr output, as a playback error instead of reconciling false watch progress.
• Search focus: Restore Backspace on the Home screen as a reliable way to focus the search input from results or Favorites.
• Season subtitles: Remember an explicit subtitle or no-subtitle choice for every episode in a season download.
• Playback state safety: Sanitize provider and subject identifiers before using them in tracker state filenames.
• Cross-platform release validation: Run all-feature locked builds/tests, binary startup smoke tests, Unix and Windows installer syntax checks, and release-target builds in CI.
• Release artifact smoke tests: Execute each native release target's produced binary on its CI runner before archiving.
• Documentation accuracy: Document Android intent limitations, the actual Termux binary model, macOS-only IINA support, native runtime verification requirements, and the current automated test count.
• Windows VLC & player spawn fix: Removed erroneous CREATE_NO_WINDOW flag that suppressed GUI window creation and caused VLC to crash on Windows; normalized Windows backslash subtitle paths in --sub-file and gracefully handle subtitle download failures without breaking stream playback.
• Termux player opener resolution: Resolve termux-open, termux-open-url, and termux-am directly in $PREFIX/bin and static Termux paths; remove broken /system/bin/am fallback in unrooted Termux that crashed with Permission Denied (exit code 126).
• Termux dependency path: Remove the Android platform-verifier dependency path that caused the v0.1.12 startup panic; real-device confirmation remains required.
