mesamirh/MovieBox-Tui v0.1.21

on GitHub

Added

• Automated Issue Quality, Version Validation, and Duplicate Management:
  • Modernized GitHub issue templates (.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/) to link directly to official mdBook documentation site guides (mesamirh.github.io/MovieBox-Tui/).
  • Added .github/workflows/incomplete-issue.yml with semver release validation checking user versions against latest GitHub releases and printing platform upgrade commands.
  • Implemented automated OS labeling (os: android, os: linux, os: macos, os: windows), title sanity validation, and Termux player setup guidance.
  • Added automatic removal of needs-info and stale labels when the issue author provides responses.
  • Added .github/workflows/duplicate-detector.yml using actions-cool/issues-similarity to flag and cross-reference duplicate issue submissions.
  • Added .github/workflows/stale.yml to automatically close abandoned needs-info issues after 7 days of inactivity.

Security

• Dependency Advisory Remediation:
  • Updated rustls to 0.23.45 and rustls-webpki to 0.103.15, resolving security advisory RUSTSEC-2026-0285 (TLS 1.3 handshake boundary handling).

Performance

• TUI Landing Frame Latency & Allocation Pruning:
  • Reduced landing frame draw latency from 28.95 µs to 23.03 µs (-20.4%) by eliminating per-frame heap allocations (logo_text: &'static str, zero-copy &rows.rects borrowing) and caching search result metrics across unscrollable viewports.
• Zero-Copy Title Normalization (clean_moviebox_title):
  • Converted clean_moviebox_title from an allocating String generator to a pure zero-copy slice parser (&str -> &str), replacing allocating .to_lowercase() substring searches with in-place ASCII case-insensitive matching (rfind_ignore_ascii_case).
  • Achieved sub-microsecond parsing latency: 191.43 ns/op over 10,000 operations with zero heap allocations.

Changed

• Windows Installer Terminal Lifecycle and Environment Propagation:
  • Replaced process-terminating exit statements with scoped return in install.ps1, preventing host terminal windows and tabs from abruptly closing during piped iex execution or on preflight warnings.
  • Added Win32 WM_SETTINGCHANGE environment broadcast via SendMessageTimeout, forcing Windows Explorer and newly launched terminals to immediately refresh PATH without requiring a system sign-out.
  • Removed buffer-wiping [Console]::Clear() from installer header initialization to preserve user terminal diagnostic history.
  • Stripped Unix $ shell prompt prefix from streaming launch guidance and added direct binary execution fallback path (& "$ExePath") for existing terminal windows.
• Concise Error and Status Messaging:
  • Streamlined ProviderError::user_message to output compact, high-signal status messages under 40 characters for mobile and compact viewports.
  • Replaced sprawling raw socket errors and leaked endpoint URLs with clear failure reasons (CircleFTP unreachable: requires BDIX network., MovieBox timed out., Cannot reach 4KHDHub., No results found.).
  • Shortened 4KHDHub playback and download resolution timeout messages to fit single-row status lines (4KHDHub timed out.).
  • Sanitized subtitle download/write error strings to prevent raw filesystem/network error leaks.
  • Compacted addon torrent stream warning to Blocked {} torrent streams. HTTP only..
  • Streamlined player crash fallback diagnostic to Player exited (code {code})..

Fixed

• In-Flight Notification Replacement & Compact Stream Errors:
  • Generalized notification category matching in AppState::notify across stream and playback domains, ensuring stream resolution errors replace in-flight "Preparing playback" toasts in-place instead of creating visual overlapping.
  • Compacted 4KHDHub stream error messages from 135-character redundant text blocks to concise messages under 30 characters (Mirrors dead or expired.).
• 4KHDHub Mediator Redirector Resolution:
  • Implemented automatic mediator unpacker in src/providers/fourkhdhub/hubcloud.rs supporting greenmotors.club and greenmountmotors. intermediate redirector domains.
  • Implemented multi-stage decoding pipeline (double Base64, ROT13, JSON extraction) to transparently recover downstream HubCloud and HubDrive mirror endpoints without external browser dependencies.
  • Excluded mediator domains from direct file classification in parser.rs and added mediator domain rejection to validate_playback_url.
• Playback vs Download Mirror Resolution Separation:
  • Introduced ResolutionIntent (Playback vs Download) in src/providers/models.rs and wired through resolve_release.
  • For playback, prioritized seekable multi-connection video CDNs (pixel.hubcloud. -> Google Video CDN, Cloudflare R2, PixelDrain API) while deprioritizing single-use download workers (workers.dev).
  • Added downloadQuotaExceeded and Access Denied error body detection in FourKHdHubClient::preflight to instantly reject exhausted worker links and prevent IINA HTTP authentication dialogs.
• 4KHDHub Multi-Stream Deduplication:
  • Fixed an issue where 4KHDHub stream releases were prematurely collapsed into a single item by scoping query-string-insensitive URL deduplication strictly to MovieBox CDN streams.
  • Upgraded 4KHDHub stream cache schema to v4_ to invalidate stale single-stream caches.
• Terminal Color Support Environment Isolation:
  • Scoped process environment lookups (ALACRITTY_WINDOW_ID, WEZTERM_EXECUTABLE, TILIX_ID, VTE_VERSION) strictly to ColorSupport::current() rather than the pure classify_terminal helper.
  • Eliminated host environment variable leakage where running tests inside Alacritty or WezTerm falsely forced 256-color and basic terminals to report Truecolor support.
  • Extracted pure is_vte_version_truecolor validator, eliminating non-thread-safe std::env::set_var test mutations.
• Android Termux Intent Opener Resiliency & Socket Fallback:
  • Implemented multi-opener resolution in src/player.rs returning ordered candidate commands (termux-am → termux-open → termux-open-url).
  • Added automatic in-flight fallback in src/tui/app/playback.rs: if termux-am exits with am.sock / socket connection failure on Android 12+, MovieBox-TUI automatically retries with termux-open without halting playback.
  • Replaced long and inaccurate "Run: pkg install -y termux-am" notifications with concise mobile-formatted messages under 32 characters (Termux Setup: Run 'pkg install termux-tools'., No Player: Install a video player., CLI mpv: Switch to Android Player in /settings.).
• tmux Poster Image Passthrough:
  • Replaced the hard-coded $TMUX detection block in src/tui/terminal.rs with an outer terminal graphics capability probe (GHOSTTY_RESOURCES_DIR, KITTY_WINDOW_ID, WEZTERM_EXECUTABLE, ITERM_SESSION_ID, ALACRITTY_LOG, ALACRITTY_WINDOW_ID, foot).
  • Enabled automatic poster graphics queries and DCS passthrough inside tmux sessions running within Ghostty, Kitty, WezTerm, iTerm2, foot, and Alacritty, eliminating empty "No Art" placeholders.
• Legacy Windows Console Compatibility (Windows 8.1 & conhost):
  • Eliminated unsupported underline-color control codes from ratatui crossterm backend, restoring full TUI rendering on Windows 8.1 and legacy Windows console hosts where SetUnderlineColor causes draw frame errors.
  • Pruned unused all-widgets, widget-calendar, and macros feature dependencies from ratatui build graph.
• Update Modal Geometry & Symmetrical Border Padding:
  • Eliminated unnecessary dead vertical gap below action buttons in "Update Available" dialog by calculating exact rendered line heights (update_modal_layout_with_env) accounting for installation environment notices.
  • Symmetrized vertical padding with balanced 1-row margins above the version header and below the action button row, eliminating bottom-heavy content displacement.
  • Aligned inner horizontal margins to a uniform 2-column padding on both left and right borders, preventing premature right-side text truncation.
  • Synchronized mouse click hitbox (button_row_y) with rendered action buttons across all package environments (DirectReplace, Homebrew, Termux, Flatpak, Snap).
