Broadcast the audiofx session when playing/pausing rather than starting
and stopping.
This is apparently the more correct way to do this.
Resolves#391.
Add fine-grained updates to the queue view.
Should do the following:
1. Make queue updates faster (no diff calculation)
2. Resolve some bugs regarding duplicate queue items.
3. Finally complete the new list framework.
Resolves#350Resolves#335Resolves#380
Not adding this broke MP4-AAC files for some insane reason. Google devs
try not to maintain two near-identical products with only slightly
infuriating differences challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)
Resolves#388.
Add a setting to remove hard-coded sort names based on articles.
This feature is nice, but does not work with some non-english music.
Those individuals should have the ability to disable it.
The implementation honestly is not the greatest, primarily because it
does a 100% reload when it could just regenerate the library. Auxio's
current music model isn't really designed for that, so it will do this
until a need to that kind of "soft reload" really arises.
Resolves#359.
Fix visual clipping on the shuffle FAB's shadow.
Turns out padding, while slower, is actually the better inset handling
method, as it allows me to avoid visual clipping in some cases.
Make sorting direction (ascending/descending) explicit in the UI and in
the code.
Instead of a boolean flag, two distinct "ascending" and "descending"
options are used instead. This should be much clearer.
Accept positions that are zeroed, but only if there are non-zero total
values as well.
Sometimes zeroed positions are deliberate, but other times they are
placeholders meant to indicate a lack of a position. To resolve this,
Auxio now considers zeroed track/disc numbers in the presence of
non-zero track/disc numbers to be valid.
Disable the new instructions-based system for now.
The way I was doing reflection was likely far too unsafe and prone to
bugs. I'll want to do it some other way.
Completely rework the detail list implementations so that resorting the
song list causes a replace operation instead of a diff operation.
This finally makes the list experience consistent across the app.
Make list instructions generic in preparation for the detail list
update.
Detail views need their own instructions datatype, so this is meant to
allow that to be implemented without issue.
Split up the settings ui into four categories.
This should reduce the visual load on the user as Auxio continues to
accrue possible configuration options.
Resolves#323.
Reorganize the music folders dialog to be more visually straightforward
than prior, primarily by grouping the folder elements into the same
visual region.
Resolves#318.
Make all adapters relying on diffing unified into a DiffAdapter
superclass that can then accurately respond to the new
UpdateInstructions data.
UpdateInstructions is still not fully used everywhere, but will be
soon.
When the back button is pressed, clear the current selection before
navigating back.
This is something I was planning to do but then completely forgot about
when implementing multi-select.
Resolves#316.
Switch back to using settings-specific listeners rather than the
SharedPreference listener.
Again, this is due to the need to decouple android code from settings.
It also allows us to fully obscure the details of what settings we are
actually working with.
Turns out using isActive to indicate that the AudioProcessor is a no-op
is too unreliable due to how they are managed internally.
Instead, I really do just have to use a copy. Once again ExoPlayer
picks the most absurd possible design choices for no good reason.
Resolves#293.
Allow past and currently playing queue items to be edited, instead of
just future queue items.
This was a somewhat requested feature that was impossible with the
prior queue system. With some fixes, the new queue system can now be
used to do this.
This even works with edge cases like removing the currently playing
song. Albeit, it's likely that more bug fixes and testing will be
needed.
Resolves#223.
Fix a crash that would occur when trying to add music dirs without a
file manager to handle it.
Some users apparently disable the built-in file manager under the
assumption that the same intents will work with other file managers.
They do not, and so we need to handle that case and let the user know.
Add a button to reset the pre-amp to it's default setting.
This way, you don't have to specifically seek to the 0 dB value in the
dialog in order to reset it.
Refactor the internal tag management portion of MetadataExtractor into a
new "Tags" object that can now be re-used in the ReplayGain system.
This also does a minor rework to the ReplayGain object to make it
totally self-sufficient.
Rework some of the taped together ways context-dependent objects were
replied on in-app, such as removing redundant constructs and extremely
hacky lifecycle mechanisms.
Always scroll to the top of the queue list when the current song
changes.
This way, the user can see future items rather than past items.
In an ideal world, I would try to go to the center of the queue, but
it seems like the "average" scroll tends to settle at the top no
matter what I do, so whatever. There's also a slight in-accuracy
in what the app considers the "Top" of the queue, but that's considered
minimally detrimental given how much a QoL improvement this is.
Resolves#210.
When resolving the names of several artists or genres, use a localized
separator instead of a comma.
This makes list values more correct in other languages, if properly
translated.
Add support for albums to have a range of dates.
Often compilation albums will have Songs released in different months
or years, so it makes some sense to show a date range rather than just
the ealiest date.
The only point at which the earliest date is still shown is in the home
view's popup, as maxiumum dates in a date range are not sorted by, and
so showing it doesn't make sense.
Formalize how whitespace tags are handled.
The checks for blank tags and removal of trailing whitespace from tags
are now the same function, carefully used to prevent blank tags from
setting through.
More testing will need to be done in order to fully ensure this system
will work as intended.
Fix an issue where genres consisting only of whitespace crash the genre
parser, and thus the music loader.
Band-aid this by moving the trimming code out of splitEscaped and into
maybeParseSeparators. In a future version I'll need to figure out how I
want to handle these weird edge cases.
Add support for MP4 ReplayGain tags. These are usually under a `----`
atom with an iTunes domain and ReplayGain description. These are
mapped to an ID3v2 internal frame within ExoPlayer, which is why
Auxio did not support them, as it only expected Vorbis comments and
ID3v2 TXXX frames.
Resolves#292.
Backport the code for full "Month + Year" dates to older versions with
the legacy Date API.
For the same of not missing bugs on newer devices, this is now what
will be used in Auxio.
Try to move multi-artist playback/navigation into a single function.
This function is really bad and is tacked onto the most convienent
location without much thought. I really wish to move this into the
ViewModel flow eventually, but I have no idea how to architecture
that. Oh well.
Show a list of artists that contain songs from a particular genre in
the genre UI.
This used to be in really early Auxio versions, but was intertwined
with some really stupid genre functionality that would include songs
from an entire artist for some reason. Since now albums can be shown
in several artist entires, it makes no sense now what artists can't
be given the same treatment.
Add a setting to hide "collaborators", that is artists that do not show
up on any album artist tags.
This is mostly for my own use since I don't get use from useless
collaborator entries.
If a song/album date has a month value, show it in the UI.
This hopefully improves the date experience for more well-tagged
libraries. Due to date limitations however, it is limited to
Android O onwards for now.
Unify the "Show Covers" and "Ignore MediaStore Covers" settings under an
new "Album covers" setting.
This will make it easier to extend to new forms of album cover
collection.
Add caching of already-parsed tag data.
This greatly reduces loading times when the music library has not
changed. This completes the music loader in it's entirety now.
Resolves#207.
Redesign the icon entirely.
Since the next release is 3.0.0, may as well refresh the icon.
- This icon is actually unique and not a reskinned material icon, which
I feel will diffentiate Auxio even more.
- While unique, it also blends into the surrounding app icons a lot
better, especially regarding using stroke/corner sizes.
Add a toggle to control the IS_MUSIC=1 selector.
This is normally used to remove non-music like podcasts and ringtones,
however some people use Auxio was a general-purpose audio player for
these files, so this setting can be used to disable that selector and
load non-music.
Resolves#246.
Add support for MusicBrainz IDs (MBIDs) in both grouping and UID
creation.
This should help with very large libraries where artist names
collide, thus requiring differentiation through other means. It also
theoretically opens the door to fetch online metadata, however I don't
really care for that and it would violate the non-connectivity promise
of Auxio.
Resolves#202.
Add semi-complete support for multiple artists.
This changeset completely reworks the music linker to add the following
new behaviors:
1. Artists are now derived from both artist and album artist tags,
with them being linked to songs and albums respectively
2. Albums and songs can now have multiple artists that can be distinct
from eachother
3. Previous Genre picking infrastructure has been removed and replaced
with artist picking infrastructure. "Play from genre" has been retired
entirely.
This is a clean break to the previous artist model and may not work
with all libraries. Steps to migrate the music library will be added
to the changelog.
Resolves#195.
Combine validation into a new finalization routine that now
individually validates and in the future may finalize certain
fields that require linking to be properly created.
Add support for compilation + live, compilation + remix,
and compilation + dj-mix release types.
This was not included due to the changes it required to the
parser. Turns out these changes are largely trivial if I do
more clever inlining.
Use CollationKey when sorting music instead of String isntances.
This makes sorting aware of accented characters while still preserving
speed. I would ideally want to extend this to the search view too, but
there is no contains command in CollationKey, so I must continue with
the normalization method there.
Refactor all Backend instances into a new package called extractor and
a new structure called "Layer".
Layers are no longer generalized into an interface. Instead, they build
on eachother in order to produce a correct output of raw songs.
One of these layers is a stub class to eventually implement caching.
This changeset also phases out the "Ignore MediaStore tags" setting, as
it is no longer needed.
Fix some mistakes with the UID hashing process.
Some more work needs to be done regarding formalizing the datatype
and tagtype fields. If anything, I may just collapse them into a
single "tag" field since they are only used for equality.
Alternatively, I could make them integers to increase efficiency.
Depends.
Completely rework the ID system to pave the way to MusicBrainz ID
support and greatly increase ID integrity in general.
This changeset removes the old ID field, an emulation of a polynomial
hash that was used in all items, and replaces it with a new type called
UID that is specific to Music. Other types just use plain equals now,
and most instances of "id" to check for equality in the app have either
been inlined into an equals override or removed outright.
The new UID format is as follows:
datatype/format:uuid
Datatype is a tag that is just the lowercase tag name. For example,
"song". Format is the program that created the UID. auxio will be an
md5 hash, and musicbrainz will the a musicbrainz ID extracted from a
file. UUID is the uuid itself.
This is much more reliable and extendable than the old ID format. This
will also be the last time I break compat with old ID formats. From now
on, a legacy UID field will not be included to enable backwards compat,
when the time comes for a breaking change.
Add some functions to eventually enable multi-parent playback.
PlaybackMode is still used in some places, however will steadily be
phased out hopefully.
Fix a popup desynchronization issue in grid-based layouts.
This issue stemmed from the popup index calculation apparently not
needing a division by the span count in order to produce the correct
index. This kind of makes sense, but is still really weird.
Resolves#230.
Make the playing indicator animate when playback is ongoing.
Previously state issues stopped me from doing this, but apparently this
time I miraculously got it working. Yay.
Resolves#218.
Revert the song menu in the playback panel to being in the toolbar.
It was mostly inconsistent and cause a lot of truncation. I'll figure
out what I want to do when I implement liked songs.
Switch position math to rely on deciseconds (1/10th of a second)
instead of full seconds.
This makes seeking and position management much smoother, with minimal
performance cost. In the future I may try to migrate the playback state
so that the position calculations are done on the UI end, but this
works for now.
Make the shape of the play/pause buttons throughout the app morph from
a circle if paused to a square if playing.
Android 13 seemingly does this to their play/pause button, so we copy
it too.
Tangentally related to #162.
Do not check for the version when managing the notification.
Some OEMs will update the android system, causing the version number to
change, but will THEN not update the system UI, completely breaking my
compat hacks. Because you know. Reasons. Fix this by always applying
future and obsolete methods of updating the media notification
regardless of the context.
Resolves#219.
Migrate MediaSessionComponent to android 13.
This was primarily implementing custom actions with the media session
and adding some extra bug fixes that I was already planning. I was
really hoping that google fixes the nightmarish mess that was the
previous MediaStyle notification, where I had to update the session
and then the notification in a tight dance with clever tricks to not
get rate-limited, but nope. I still have to do exactly the same thing
as beforehand, but with even extra insanity due to the custom actions.
Auxio tried to leverage built-in android string attributes for Ok and
Cancel while still completing them for other translations that were not
supported by the OS.
Turns out this was a terrible idea when I switched to Weblate, which
has no knowledge of this trick and could lead to a misleading
translation value. Remove it.
Resolves#215.
Move all menu functionality from long-click to a menu button.
This is in preparation for #93, as I need to free up the long-click
for a selection option. The spacing isn't really consistent at all,
but that's because I wanted to make something that looks right
depending on the context.
Replace the song options button in the playback menu with a button that
opens the equalizer.
I plan to re-introduce the song options in another location.
Remove the "Off" ReplayGain setting, as it is mostly meaningless.
Users who don't want ReplayGain can remove the tags from their files.
No efficiency benefits either since the audio processor is always
disabled without replaygain tags. It is better not to confuse users
who do have ReplayGain but wonder why it is not working on their
files because the setting is off.
Add the ability to customize the bar action to the repeat mode or
shuffle state.
This is a much smaller implementation than what I planned, mostly
because other options did not make much sense (queue) or were
superceded by better options (clear state).
Resolves#108.
Add support for external AudioEffect implementers, like Wavelet.
Doing this involves doing a weird broadcast dance with AudioEffect
Intents at special points to indicate a valid audio session that
can be manipulated. Still has some issues, such as a null name
showing up in wavelet. As far as I am aware, this is the best
possible system I can do, and allows me to delegate an equalizer
implementation to other apps instead of making my own.
Resolves#211.
Update transitions in the home fragment to X-axis.
I noticed a visual issue in the detail transition in the existing
version stemming from how the main fragment's drawing is clipped by
the bottom sheet, resulting in a less-than-ideal Z-axis transition.
While I wanted to fix this by attempting to switch to inset based
bottom sheet management, I still need to wait for more changes in
order to successfully pull that off, and hence I'll be reverting it
soon.
Moving these transitions to X-axis prevents this visual issue while
still being roughly semantically similar.
Do not do a measure + inset method with BottomSheetContentBehavior,
instead, try to re-apply window insets to adapt with the bar instead.
This fixes a lot of view clipping issues that made motion transitions
non-ideal and prevented a rounded playback bar. Only remaining issue is
RecyclerView instances, which need to be further reworked to resolve
scroll issues and edge effect problems.
Leverage min heights for the playback layouts instead of the land
modifier.
This prevents an issue where some split-screen displays won't use the
correct "compact" layout.
Add a split playback UI in landscape mode.
Apparently the mere act of doing this also fixes the infurating
window inset issue I previously did either. Odd.
Remove useless id fields from Headers, replacing them with vlaues
related to their string resource.
String resources and disc numbers are more or less garunteed to be
unique in Auxio's context.
Re-implement the queue, now leveraging a bottom sheet too.
This makes the queue much easier to open, and actually plays along with
the new transition system. I really hope this doesn't have a stupid
gotcha that ruins the UX. Please. Please. Please.
Use BottomSheetBehavior with the playback sheet.
This is the result of two weeks of painful hacking to get a working
implementation that did not immediately have a brain aneursym. It
also requires me to still vendor BottomSheetBehavior for the time
being. However, this greatly reduces technical issues on my end and
allows the addition of new playback UI concepts, while still
retaining the UI fluidity of prior.
Temporarily remove queue navigation, as it can no longer really fit
with the new transitions.
This will eventually be replaced with a queue bottom sheet, implying
that I can abuse one into working.
Add the ability to jump to arbitrary points in the queue.
This comes at the cost of the long-press option to move items, since
they simply cannot co-exist without visual issues.
Hack around an issue where the notification position will not update if
one seeked while the player was paused.
This is the best implementation I can do that will not result in the
notification getting excessively rate-limited.
Expose the queue in the MediaSession, at least I hope.
The queue is still not mutable. Don't feel comfortable implementing that
until I rework the in-app queue UI.
Modify ExoPlayerBackend to handle the presence of multiple vorbis tags
for a particular key.
This is allowed by the spec and heavily leveraged by programs like
Picard. It also opens the door for better artist functionality, but
that is incredibly complicated and something I don't want to implement
right now.
Lowercase music names when hashing them to prevent drift stemming from
grouping.
The addition of the song may change the case of an artist if such
mitigations are in effect. To prevent such from invalidating music
hashes, we take the lowercase of every name hashed.
Don't take the app widget host padding into account when trying to
calculate the widget sizing.
Doing such produces bad results, at least on my devices. At least, it
does now for some reason.
Make the search algorithm take in account the raw sort name and file
name when searching.
This allows the user to search for a particular song without typing in
a unicode/non-ideal title, instead typing in a latinized sort name or
suitable file name.
This does make Auxio's search a bit more fuzzy, but it still gets the
job done.
Resolves#184.
Related to #172.
Add a new Date class to represent both years and more fine-grained
dates extracted using the ExoPlayer metadata system.
In-app, the year is still shown, but sorting will use the new precision
when present. The MediaSession will also post an RFC 3339 formatted
date with this new precision, as the MediaSession documentation states
I should. No clue if the latter will cause any bugs with naive metadata
UIs in other apps.
Resolves#159.
Implement sort tag support in the ExoPlayer backend.
Sort tags for grouping is still derived from the templates. Album
artist sort tags are only picked if one is present. System might be
a bit buggy at the moment given that it messes with grouping/sorting
a little.
Resolves#172.
Remove the excluded directory migration code, as it causes far more
issues than it fixes.
Due to an unfixable logic bug that occurs when trying to read the
setting, Auxio will always try to migrate the database when there is
no music folders, causing a hang in some situations. Fix it by just
removing the migration.
Hide the new quality tags option for now.
This is not because I wanted to, but rather because of me wanting to
reduce the amount of bugs I will likely be thrown due to the release
of automatic rescanning.
Add automatic rescanning, for real.
This is the culmination of 6 months of work to make Auxio respond to
music updates and to research the most versatile implementation of
such. Is it the best system? No. It's actually a bit messy by necessity
in order to prevent bugs. Does it work well? Yes.
This will not be enabled by default, as it does require a battery
draining foreground service and is generally not useful for most
circumstances.
So glad to be done with this.
Resolves#72.
Revert the optional rounded corners on the bottom sheet.
It was causing too many bugs to be a sensible addition. I will only add
it if Google moves WindowInset application to layout time AND only on
devices with the stretch overscroll implemented.
Make notification updates entirely reliant on the MediaSession.
Android 11 and onwards automatically populate the notification with the
MediaSession state. This apparently conflicts with updating the
notification in some cases, resulting in the incorrect song being
shown. Fix this by not populating the notification from Android 11
onward and only posting it when the MediaSession state was set.
Resolves#179.
Remove WindowInsetsCompat from the project, as it is a pile of garbage.
WindowInsetsCompat refuses to actually update the correct fields when
you transform it back into a WindowInsets. This makes it impossible to
use in Auxio. The fact that Google decided to make such an
overengineered wrapper to some version-specific methods is an absolute
joke. All you needed were some extension functions, but no, let's make
an entire wrapper class filled with so many gotchas as to be unusable.
