ViveStream v1.6.0 - The Polish & Features Update ✨

on GitHub

Major UI overhaul, add Favorites, and refine build process

This major update introduces a significant visual refresh, new core features, and substantial improvements to the build process and file management.

✨ Features & UI/UX Enhancements

• New Favorites System: Users can now mark videos as favorites. A dedicated "Favorites" tab has been added to the sidebar to view all favorited content.
• New Sidebar Navigation: Added placeholder tabs for "Playlists" and "Settings" to structure the app for future features.
• UI & Font Polish: Implemented the official font scheme (Orbitron for display, Poppins for body) and refined spacing, sizing, and layout across the entire application for a more professional and polished user experience.
• Custom Window Controls: Replaced the native window frame with custom, auto-hiding controls for minimize, maximize, tray, and close, providing a cleaner look.
• Redesigned Header: Relocated the search bar to the center of the header with a smooth, animated expansion on focus.
• Interactive Home Page: Video grid items now have a subtle hover animation. Action buttons (Favorite, Save, Menu) appear on hover for a cleaner default view.
• Improved Empty States: Replaced plain text "empty" messages with visually appealing placeholder components, consistent across all tabs.

🐛 Bug Fixes & Refinements

• Fixed Context Menu Positioning: The three-dot context menu now correctly calculates its position and no longer renders off-screen, especially in the player view.
• Corrected File Storage Path: Downloads are now correctly saved to a ViveStream folder in the user's home directory (C:\Users\<username>\ViveStream) instead of the AppData folder.
• Refined Download Status: The download status/progress bar on the Downloads page is now hidden by default and only appears when a download is in progress.
• Scoped Grid Click Events: Fixed a bug where clicking on empty space in the video grid would trigger playback of the first video. Clicks are now correctly scoped to video items.

🛠️ Build & Performance

• Optimized Build Size: Corrected package.json by moving innosetup-compiler from dependencies to devDependencies, significantly reducing the final application size by preventing build tools from being bundled.
• Streamlined Build Script: The build-installer.js script has been improved with better logging, dynamic installer naming (ViveStream-Installer-v<version>.exe), and automatic cleanup of all temporary build directories.
• Dynamic setup.iss: The Inno Setup script now dynamically receives the app version and icon path from the build script, simplifying the release process.
