BREAKING CHANGE:

... yeah well, cause everything has been rewritten.

Just documenting all changes of this new version would take me days and even then I'd forget about certain things.
Well here is a short summary of the most notable ones:

  • Cleaner Code
  • Support for Plex Streaming
  • Emby/Jellyfin: Support for simple Pause and Stop commands (comming from emby app/web)
  • Actually usable interface
    • Pretty much every input is handled through crossterm with some neat eyecandy such as colors, highlights and bold text
    • And for some reason, almost all of the lines printed by puddler will be deleted afterwards.
      • While using puddler myself, I often got a little annoying at how verbose everything was.
      • Even though I knew exactly what item to play, just pressing enter, I ended up with a couple dozent of unnecessary lines during my viewing experience.
      • Not anymore.
    • Note that all menus are created and managed through crossterm and they are pretty untested as of right now.
  • The config files are now also much more cleaner. (I hope)

Additional Information:

  • Authentication for plex has only been tested with an admin account. I don't have plex pass and am not planning to get one.

Noteable changes since the first commit of 0.7.0

  • fix(printing): cleaner item titles; correctly splitting chars
    • "(Played)" was still in Mpv's titlebar.
    • ContinueMenu: Dont split chars based on the byte index
  • fix(jellyfin): avoid duplicates in menu
    • Whenever an episode has been played long enough to show up in Continue Watching, it also shows up in NextUp which lead to duplicates in the menu.
  • refactor(playlist): exit playlist mode when there is nothing left to do
  • fix(text): fix incorrect description of option (hardware acceleration)
  • fix(cli/config): don't override the debug_log option
  • fix(playback): fix the "finish" item option
  • fix(input): only update the interface when necessary
  • fix(jellyfin/emby): fix external subtitles url
  • feat(playback): support for user preferred audio/sub tracks
    • This is currently very experimental.
    • Every platform returns different kinds of language codes so I had to add another dependency. (very small though)
    • It's behaviour is currently pretty basic. When the preferred audio lang-code is something like eng, it will search the tracks of the file for a track that has the same language attribute. If the audio/sub preference is unset, the selection will fall back to the player, so the default track will be selected.
    • This is implemented for non-transcode streams, because you'd be forced to choose a track when transcoding.
  • fix(input): ask again for the server address if the request failed (login)
  • fix(input): only take keypresses; this should also fix user input on windows
  • fix(config/settings): correctly generate paths to the config files/folders
  • fix(transcoding): use the correct mediasource/file when selecting sub/audio tracks
  • fix(transcoding): ask for start-time even if there is no progress
  • fix(playback_reporting): correctly convert time and actually use the modified item
  • feat(jellyfin): add option to select from multiple mediasources
  • fix(interface): ask for subtitle tracks in a seperate window
  • fix(transcoding): added missing negation for numeric check (the mbps question is now working as expected)
  • fix(mpv): avoid getting strings like "(Played)" into the item title
  • fix(jellyfin): fix playback finished menu

Please create an issue if you find anything that seems weird, bug or not.
