Remove the textSafe method, as it is functionally useless.
textSafe relied on a dumb 1.0.0 thing where I used wrap_content on
text views. Now it just causes relayouts for no good reason.
Remove EdgeCoordinatorLayout in favor of using fitsSystemWindows when
needed.
EdgeCoordinatorLayout was derived from a misunderstanding about how
window insets worked. Remove it.
Fix lints that have accumulated over time.
Apparently Android Studio just...stopped using lints. For no reason. I
had to upgrade to the beta version to actually get lints.
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.
Make bottom sheets request window insets when they are laid out.
For some insane reason, bottom sheets are just not given window insets
when the device is rotated in the detail view. Appaently requesting them
fixes it all of a sudden.
Check if the playback state still has not been initialized once we
restore.
This prevents one from playing a song while the restore task is
on-going and then having it overwritten by the restored state.
Use MaterialFadeThrough in the search transition and a Z-axis
transition in the detail views.
This is more semantically correct than the previous transitions.
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.
Indicate the currently playing item in the queue list.
The item is still disabled, however it's also simultaniously activated
now, which allows it to indicate that it is playing.
Fix two issues where Auxio's widget could not be resized to a single
cell, and another where covers would not load into the widget.
The first is caused by a random, subtle change that completely changed
up the minHeight size calculation regarding widgets. Thus, we need to
lower it for android to recognize it still as 1 cell. I cannot believe
we can't just specify the specific minimum grid size that our widget
takes up, like you know, iOS did, nearly a decade after widgets were
first added in Android.
The second is an absurd race condition stemming from me hitting the
RemoteViews memory limit. Turns out my cover bitmaps were simply too
big. Getting them below the limit requires me to resize them to a puny
~500 pixels. Why can't we just render our own views into our widget?
You know, like iOS did, nearly a decade after widgets were first added
to Android.
Nah, screw modernizing the broken widget API. Let's just vaguely copy
iOS widgets because we have to while not fixing a single issue plaguing
widget development on this OS. That way some google engineer can get
promoted faster.
Add the ability to see (but not edit) previous items.
This completes the new playback UI I've been working on for about 2
weeks now. I pray that there is no insane unfixable bug with this,
please please please please please
Fix more bottom sheet issues regarding the queue sheet.
Guess I brought it upon myself for nesting bottom sheets like this in a
way that I doubt the behavior expects.
Fix an issue on some devices where bottom sheet transitions would not
initialize correctly.
Turns out I can't try to do transitions using the callback and simply
initalizing them on startup. Apparently on some devices,
CoordinatorLayout will simply not lay out until some arbitrary point
past onResume. This breaks our transitions.
Fix it by using a pre-draw listener instead. I cannot believe I have to
do this.
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.
Unify the background state layers of the entire app by overriding
colorControlHighlight.
Lots of components still use it, so it's beneficial to make it
consistent with the rest of the app theming.
Rework the queue internally to decouple the queue from playback and
better respond to reshuffling.
This is being implemented under the assumption that I will be
implementing the sliding queue eventually.
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.
Add an option to clear the currently saved playback state.
This does not clear playback entirely, but rather remove the saved
state so that it's not restored on the next startup. This is generally
the cleanest solution compared to allowing state restore to be toggled,
which opens up a bunch of race conditions.
Resolves#107.
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.
Rework album types into release types, with additional support for live
albums, remixes, and mixtapes.
This is not a complete implementation, nor is it meant to be. I don't
want to add technical complexity handling Remix Compilations or
DJ-Mixes unless there is demand.
Add release type support to the media indexer.
This allows EPs, Singles, and Albums to be distinguished from
eachother. Auxio's implementation will use the MusicBrainz tag for
ID3v2 (Falling back to GRP1, as that is used sometimes), and will use
RELEASETYPE for vorbis comments.
Update MDC to the alpha version in order to use some extra features.
I was planning to switch to the new MaterialSwitch, but alpha03 has
this insane crippling issue with ripples that blocks such. Use alpha02
and prep the app for the addition of the switch.
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.
Fix an issue on some devices where the delayed actions system would
not work on startup.
Apparently onStart can be called several times with the same intent.
No, I am not joking. What the actual hell. This would cause any
delayed action other than Restore to be overwritten. The only hard
rule about android is that there are no rules. I hate this platform
so much.
Set the enforce*BarContrast methods to false above API 29, so we can
use fully transparent navigation and status bars.
Previously, we used a mostly transparent color for such, but now, we
can use a completely transparent color without it being changed to
match contrast.
Update id hashing to correctly handle null artists and take discs
and durations into account.
Note that we try not to hash values only obtained with the ExoPlayer
parser, as those could feasibly change if the setting was toggled,
thus causing the playback state to wipe.
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.
Added date added sorting to albums as well.
This implementation picks the earliest song in an album that was added
to the library and then uses that for sorting.
Prepare support for sort tags by reworking how sortName is structured.
Instead of rawName and sortName, music must now implement rawName and
rawSortName. rawSortName will be checked first, followed by will
falling back to rawName.withoutArticle. This allows hard-coded tags to
be neatly implemented while avoiding an immediate copy.
Add a "Last Added" sorting option to the home UI's song list.
I don't know if there is any demand for last added in other contexts.
That will be resolved later.

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.
Add an abstraction over the generation system called GenerationGuard.
This allows cheap cooperative threading to be implemented consistently
in many places.
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.
Move the switch from IO to Main to within Indexer itself, through
withContext.
This is much easier to work with than the previous system of a separate
"update" coroutine, which isn't really needed anymore given that I no
longer need to do IO work when sanitizing the playback state.
Edge case I thought existed did not. PlaybackService must have saved
before dying, and thus if it did not foreground after a sanitization,
the saved state would still sanitize in a similar manner.
Save, but do not read the playback state when sanitizing.
Turns out there is an edge-case where we want to save the state. Still
keep the runtime sanitization, as that greatly reduces the time it
takes to rescan the library.
Do not save the playback state when sanitizing.
After some thought, there is no situation where re-saving the playback
state is desirable. A previously saved state will be consistent with
a sanitized state, and there is no need to save when the service is
active. Thus, save on speed and reduce insane race conditions by just
sanitizing the current runtime state and not saving at all.
Remove the ripple resources and replace them with their system
counterparts.
This is to remove redundancy in-app and make the widget more consistent
with other android widgets.
Finally unify all icon activation states under the new grade modifier
in Material Symbols.
This provides similar clarify to the dot/greyed state, but without
inconsistent meanings. The shuffle icon did have to be bolded a little
more though, as the grade did not seem to do much.
Rework the UI flow for music loading to be more coherent with runtime
rescanning.
The loading progress is now shown as a card on the bottom of the
screen. This way, app use is not completely crippled when the app has
to rescan the music library, albeit the shuffle button still has to
be disabled during this period.
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.
Audit usages of Synchronized throughout the app to prevent deadlocks.
This is primarily composed of not making long-running work
synchronized, instead only making mutations and reads synchronized.
This does cause minor issues, such as during a sanitization event
the playback state could be feasibly saved, changed, and then restored
back to the previous state unintentionally. However, preventing
deadlocks is generally better than trying to fix those.
Use the @Synchronized annotation instead of synchronized.
Makes my ability to manage thread-safety on the shared objects much
easier. Because I don't have to think about what I should guard
and what I shouldn't.
Finally enable runtime rescanning, opening the door for a ton of new
features and automatic rescanning later on.
More work needs to be done on making the shared mutable state in-app
safer to use.
Improve the indexer callback system to be more coherent and efficient.
This delegates the old Callback role to a new singular Callback and
Controller roles. IndexerService also handles the loading process
more gracefully, reducing the amount of time music loads take.
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.
Rework the rounded covers option into a new "Round Mode" option.
This commit extends the rounded corners configuration to now the
widget, thus making the setting apply now to covers, the bar, and
the widget configuration. This makes a naming change useful.
Further rework the button layout to be alike to other modern widgets.
This changeset transforms the play button into a FAB-ish thing,
makes spacing coherent between the uses of each layout, and adds
spacers to make the buttons layout in a more appealing way.
Update the library update process to be on a co-routine, updating
callbacks on the main thread.
For some insane reason, the Main dispatcher used normally when
loading music just disappears sometimes. This leads to unpleasent
crashes as callbacks expect to be called on the app thread, not
any background threads.
Fix this by forcing the Main dispatcher during the update process.
This requires the music update process to also run on a background
thread, albeit that will be useful for automatic rescanning late ron.
Completely rework Auxio's iconography based on the new material symbols
icon set.
This does the following:
1. Switches the sharp + filled icon style to an outlined + round icon
style.
2. Removes 32dp icons from everywhere except the playback panel.
This does not:
1. Actually handle optical sizes right. This is going to take some more
work to make it harmonious with the current UI.
2. Update margins in some places to be harmonious with the new icons.
This is also going to take some more work to do properly.
Rework the bottom sheet layout process to accomodate the new rounded
corners and be far more efficient.
This removes the weird content layout code and moves it into the inset
code, which not only allows content to show in the corners, but also
allows us to minimize the amount of layouts that we normally perform.
Make BottomSheetLayout apply rounded corners when rounded covers is
enabled.
Draggable elements should be rounded, not straight, so this simply
makes this consistent. It does have one visual error as it stands,
stemming from the layout code allocating space for the bar and thus
clipping certain content. I hope to fix this soon.
Do not use collectImmediately when recreating tabs in the home menu.
This resulted in an issue where the ViewPager would not update to
reflect the new tab layout.
Fix several issues with the bottom sheet implementation, mostly
relating to what occurs when the bar is hidden.
Previously, if the bar was hidden and then re-shown, it would not be
visible, and you could override a hidden event with another tap. These
are now both resolved by removing a stray visibility assignment and
replacing the old drag checks with a new isDraggable attribute.
In the future, I hope to abuse BottomSheetBehavior into not being a
pile of garbage and replace this system once and for all.
Override isActive to control when the ReplayGain engine should
manipulate audio.
This makes the system much more efficient, as we can side-step a
useless copy when ReplayGain shouldn't be applied.
Remove the TitleMidLarge style, replacing it with more Material3
attributes.
This finally removes all of the non-standard text styles. There is
still the two TitleMedium styles, but this is considered okay.
In the playback view, TitleMidLarge has become TitleLarge, which
honestly works quite well, as the same text styles are used in the
detail views.
Force LTR on timeline controls, as per the Material Design guidelines.
The guidelines state that while "directional" UIs should be LTR/RTL
depending on locale, "timeline" UIs should always by LTR, as the
direction of time is universal. Auxio did not do this, and so the
timeline controls would be RTL on other elements. Fix this by forcing
LTR on the UI elements that correspond to timelines.
Now, this is not the best system. To ensure that the rest of the layout
remains sane, much of the directional views have to be wrapped in a
redundant layout, which is somewhat in-efficient. However, the impact
seems to be at least negligable.
Rework Sort again into a new class that leverages a better Mode design
and static comparator instances.
This somewhat improves efficiency, but is also far easier to work with
and has far less footguns with adding new sorts.
Completely rework app typography.
Today I found out that inter has a tool that allowed you to generate
line spacings for a particular font size. Several hours later, I
regenerated the entirety of Auxio's typography to use this new system.
Moreso, I also tried to eliminate some of the non-standard text styles
that I was using prior. That failed. Mostly there's two edge-cases
regarding title bolding and the playback view that I simply cannot
work through right now, since M3's typography system is horribly
restrictive.
Add new shortcut utilities for collecting StateFlows in a safe manner.
The priamry addition here is collectImmediately. collectImmediately
just calls block with the existing value initially, which helps remove
a good amount of bugs regarding state initialization. Sure, it is a bit
inefficient given that it will also initialize on startup, but this is
okay.
The other utilities are the same, but simply remove the launch
boilerplate.
Add a new "Detail playback mode" option that allows one to configure
what selecting a song will do in an album/artist/genre.
This is mostly a clone of the prior setting, just in a new context.
Resolves#164.
Add a utility to easily work with lifecycle-dependent fragment objects.
This reduces the code duplication required to maintain objects that
would leak after the destruction of a fragment. We normally would not
do this as a delegate, as that usually entails some lifecycle wizardry
that can easily break and crash the app in esoteric situations.
However, this this just extends the normal lifecycle without watching
any state, it seems to be pretty safe to use.
Rework the preference classes to reduce the horrible bloat of the
recursivelyHandlePreference function.
This was mostly implementing new methods into IntListPreference and
adding a new preference to represent the weird, "generic" dialogs that
are used at points. While some preferences still need to be tweaked in
recursivelyHandlePreference, it is nowhere near as bad as it was prior.
Revamp the shared object SettingsManager into a standalone utility
called Settings.
This makes many things easier in Auxio. It completely unifies the key
format that we use (Android Strings instead of Java consts), eliminates
the pretty dumb initialization method that we use, and eliminates the
dubiousness of holding a Context-related utility in a global field.
The only cost was having to migrate even more ViewModels to Android
ViewModels. Whatever.
Add synchronized calls to all mutations in PlaybackStateManager.
I mean, it is global mutable state modified on several threads. This is
the safest option to remove a bunch of horrible bugs.
Add a controller role to PlaybackStateManager.
The controller manages the internal player, and acts as an intermediary
between other internal objects that want to modify the player, but
don't actually have access to it.
This makes a bunch of future changes far easier.
Add a shortcut to shuffle all songs.
This is likely the only static shortcut Auxio will have. Top tracks
and recently added are completely useless for me, so I will never
add them. I may add more dynamic shortcuts for recently played items,
however.
Note that we use a basic black shuffle icon here. I will not add icon
customization to these shortcuts.
Fix a visual issue with the queue animation where the playback view
will still slightly show.
This was caused by the lack of a background in the queue fragment UI.
Fix an issue where a seam might appear on some covers when rounded
covers was enabled.
This was caused by a poor usage of clipToOutline. Replace with simply
stacking existing image instances on top of eachother.
Remove the temporary 28dp hack that was applied to the playback bar.
This finally puts the playback bar in line with all other icon
components. The playback panel is still weird, but that's okay since
it's a full screen view and the buttons can take up more space.
Since I absolutely hate change, I had to effectively frog-boil myself
in order to do this, first downsizing the icon from 32dp to 28dp, and
then from 28dp down to 24dp. I can't believe I care about this so much.
Use ServiceCompat.stopForeground instead of stopForeground.
This is preliminary preparation for Android 13. I can only change SDK
versions however when the Android Gradle Plugin makes a new release
though.
Remove the animated indicator, replacing it with a static one.
I wish I could have kept this, but once again android is a sh******ed
mess and makes it impossible to dynamically animate something depending
on the playing state. It will restart the animation, ignore calls to
stop, or just flat out now run the code path in the first place due to
race conditions.
Further separate backend implementations to remove redundant tasks.
Generally, if I have not encountered an issue where a field is not
present/sane, I don't want to put in a "well, maybe" fallback, as
that would tank performance. Only do it when we need to.
Introduce MenuFragment in order to replace ActionMenu.
ActionMenu was a terrible class filled with hacks. Introduce a new
fragment called MenuFragment that enables the same features, plus:
1. Requiring consumers the specify the menu, which prevents issues
from one-size-fits-all menus (unless absolutely necessary)
2. Fixing an issue where multiple menus appear at once
Switch the excluded directory system to StorageVolume.
This finally removes dependence on the in-house Volume constructs, and
also completely extends fully music folder selection support to all
versions that Auxio supports.
This is possibly one of the most invasive and risky reworks I have done
with Auxio's music loader, but it's also somewhat exciting, as no other
music player I know of handles Volumes like I do.
Leverage StorageVolume when working with file paths.
StorageVolume is android's navive API for handling external volumes.
Ideally, we would want to replace our built-in volume class with this
new API, however doing so is somewhat complicated as some methods only
exist on newer API levels. This is only the first step until we are
able to migrate the excluded directory system to this as well.
Make some ViewModel instances AndroidViewModels in order to make some
code less insane.
I don't like doing this, as I want to keep ViewModel instances clean of
android things, but this just makes a lot of functionality easier to
implement.
Fix an issue where the collapsing toolbar would not preserve it's state
when navigating.
Apparently you need to add an ID to a view to get it's state to be
restored. There is no warning for this at all. Android, everyone.
Only show codecs in the "format" field, if we are able to extract them.
This is primarily for consistency, as there is no way for us to
determine the container format outside of an extension (which could not
be sane).
Fix an API 21-specific bug that could result in covers not loading when
quality covers was enabled.
This stemmed from a use of `use` on MediaMetadataRetriever, which
relied on an interface not present on the class on API 21.
Completely rework the excluded directory system into a new
"Music Folders" system.
This is implemented alongside a new "Include" mode. This mode
allows the user to restrict music indexing to a parsicular folder.
I've been reluctant to add this feature, as having two separate
options seemed bad. This resolves it by effectively packing whether
to include/exclude directories into a single option.
Resolves#154.
Add a non-queue version of the song menu to the playback panel.
While the original UI flow of clicking on each TextView to navigate
to a particular item is still present, this simply makes the action
more clear to a first-time user.
Heavily improve the way Auxio handles shows formats in the song
properties view.
This is composed of the following:
- Using ExoPlayer to find a format-specific mime type before having to
fall back to other solutions
- Keeping around the format and extension mime types so that each is
picked in the best circumstances
- Using MediaFormat to also retrieve a format-specific mime type in the
case that ExoPlayer parsing is disabled
- Adding special names for the most common formats
Remove scientific notation from the auxio icon, allowing me to
reintroduce it to the notification icon.
API 21 does not support scientific notation in vector drawables, so we
need to remove them from the icon for it to not crash the system ui.
Use basic scroll indicators when a dialog shows a list.
Mostly for material guidelines. Excluded dialogs and int pref dialog
have not been modified, as I am still working on revamping those.
Make it so that the rounded covers option is not dependent on the show
covers option.
Rounded covers has no relation to whether to show covers (at least not
anymore with the new cover style), so it makes no sense to disable it
when show covers is turned off.
Resolves#152.
Remove malformed songs that have a size of 0 bytes, but are still
present in MediaStore.
This issue only seems to occur when files are transferred via MTP, but
are not loaded due to storage issues.
Add support for file size, format, and parent directory values to the
MediaStore backend.
I hope that this handles API boundaries properly, especially regarding
path parsing. As a side-note, I have learned of a way to extend
external volume support to even earlier versions. Maybe.
When ReplayGain is not needed, use ByteBuffer.put in favor of a for
loop when doing a simple copy.
ByteBuffer.put is highly optimized and far more efficient than a for
loop.
Redo the paths and remove scientific notation from the indicator to
make it work below API 22.
The fact that studio does not have a built-in vector editor of any
kind that properly handles the edge-cases is shameful.
Add a new view called ImageGroup that will handle all advanced image
hacks from now on.
This includes the indicator (which is now animated), any selection
indicators, and the weirdness of the album song image. All of that
is now handled by ImageGroup. This is the culmination of probably
a day and a half of wrangling with android insanity and having to
remove a lot of what I liked about the indicator in order to make
this work on a basic level.
The only major bug I am currently aware of with this is that the
indicator is bugged out on Lollipop devices due to bad vectors.
Again.
I never want to do this again. I cannot believe that adding a basic
indicator took this long and required so much stupid hacks and
inefficient code. And then google wonders why android apps are so
visually unappealing and janky and laggy. Hm. Must be that devs aren't
using the brand new FooBarBlasterFlow library!
Add a playing indicator to cover art.
This is simply to improve the general aestethics of this view. Of
course, the current way I implement this is incredibly stupid and I
plan to replace it.
Completely rework the way Auxio handles icons.
This is mostly two changes:
1. Removing ImageButton/StyledImageButton for MaterialButton. This is
done by abusing MaterialButton's theming options to make it only show
an icon.
2. Standardizing icon sizes into small, medium, and large categories.
Small is the default, Medium and Large are for edge-cases like the
playback icons which look horrible at 24dp.
3. Abusing the Toolbar to make it follow Material 3 guidelines. This
mostly involved removing the strange icon sizing and correctly padding
the view.
4. Reworking the playback bar to use more, smaller icons, making it
more like a Toolbar in the process (which I like).
Supply a view to WindowInsetsCompat.toWindowInsetsCompat through all
calls in the app.
This does nothing, but it would resolve future bugs if I were to use
the most exotic window inset types.
On the playback par, pick the larger inset out of the system bar
insets or system gesture insets.
This is to fix an issue where android just does not provide correct
gesture insets on Android 12L, and [maybe???] fix what is going on
in #149.
Make the home toolbar collapse on scroll.
I was planning to implement this back in 2.0.0, but visual bugs stopped
me. Now, knowing how much space the the Toolbar + Tab combination takes
up on smaller devices, I think it would be better to have this in
general.
Rework PrimitiveBackingData into SyncBackingData.
Google says that you should not use DiffUtil on the main thread, as it
is far too slow. In practice, the time it takes to diff is negligable,
even more so when costly diffs are filled in with a replace call
instead. Not only that, but switching to a synced list differ fixees
the horrible nightmare that is the queue adapter. Generally a win-win
for most use-cases in Auxio.
Rework the submitList animation to be less resource intensive and nicer
looking (at the cost of scroll positioning)
notifyDatasetChanged is slow and has no animation, but list diffing is
chaotic and basically useless outside of search. However, clearing the
adapter and then populating it with new items seems to work quite well,
albeit with the scroll position being lost sadly. Switch to that.
Extend the range of tags Auxio is capable of recognizing, removing some
edge-cases in the process.
This is mostly three changes:
1. Auxio no longer tolerates tracks/discs/years that are 0. These are
usually never valid.
2. Auxio now has support for original date/year values. This are niche
tags, but I was inspired to implement it by this HN discussion at
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31659799 simply because it
differentiates Auxio.
3. Auxio can handle the more esoteric tag variations in vorbis, such
as "YEAR" or "ALBUM ARTIST".
Add a toggle for edge-to-edge mode.
Normally we would want to enable edge-to-edge by default (in fact, we
still do). However, some phones (once again, samsung) don't provide
Auxio with actual window insets. As a result, we need to add a toggle
so that it can be disabled on busted devices.
Did you know that even when Auxio has it's edge-to-edge functionality
busted, Samsung Music works just fine? Very interesting.
Resolves#149.
Use androidx compat tools when setting up edge-to-edge and applying
window insets.
This is mostly a readability tweak ahead of making edge-to-edge a
setting.
Remove the version-specific display name hacks added previously.
Turns out RELATIVE_PATH only includes the directory structure. Oh.
Since this invalidates the purpose of version-specific display name
hacks, we just remove it.
Do not add a callback to a MetadataRetriever call in ExoPlayerBackend.
This fixes an issue where if an error occurs while a future completes,
the app will crash entirely. This is because Futures run on a different
Executor and thus exceptions will not bubble up to Indexer.
Make the detail UIs respond to automatic rescanning events.
This currently has no effect, but is instead a preparation step for the
seamless addition of automatic rescanning.
Make IndexerService only auto-index music when there is no library AND
no loading has occured.
This resolves an issue where if IndexerService dies after a failed
index, IndexerService would try to index music regardless, as there was
no library present.
Add support for excluding directories on other volumes, at least from
Android Q onwards.
Previously, Auxio only supported excluding the primary volume. This was
mostly out of laziness, as the excluded directory implementation was
shamelessly copied from Phonograph. This commit completely refactors
the excluded directory system, dumpstering the old database (which was
overkill anyway) for a new system based on SharedPreferences that is
actually capable of handling external volumes.
Now, limitations regarding external volumes still apply below Android
Q, as the VOLUME_NAME field does not exist on those versions. However,
this should resolve at least one major complaint regarding the
excluded directory system. Now theres just all of the other complaints.
Resolves#134.
Fix an issue with highlighting in the detail UIs taht stemmed from the
ViewHolder position being cached.
Resorting could have changed the ViewHolder position, so caching it
will result in ViewHolders being incorrectly updated.
Rework genre parsing to properly align with the ID3v2 standard.
The ID3v2 genre specification is weirdly complex. Auxio ignored most
of that and just parsed out the most common cases for genres (digits
and (digits)). For the sake of completeness, rework Auxio's genre
parser to handle the weirder cases like RX/CR, multiple values,
and escaping, with an implementation roughly based on Mutagen's
genre parser.
Improve Indexer's state management by splitting up the current loading
state and the last response.
This is intended to resolve a bug where if the UI task and
IndexerService are both killed, the Indexer state would become
indeterminate and the library would not show. Resolve this by keeping
track of whatever the last completed state was and falling back to it
whenever the loading process is canceled.
Add a dedicated service towards the loading of the music library.
This new service was created for two reasons:
1. Music loading is slow and resource-intensive, so putting it on the
ViewModel layer just didn't seem right and made it vulnerable to the
OS simply stopping the loading process.
2. For automatic rescanning [#72], there must be something watching
the music library and waiting for a change in the background. This
would require a service as that is probably the least insane way to
do that kind of background work.
I have no garuntees how viable the service might be. If anything, it
might be halted by some insane android restriction or issue that
makes it more or less impossible to use for most apps, and I will have
to largely drop truly automatic rescanning.
Rework loading management into a new object, Indexer, which should act
as the base for all future loading changes.
Indexer tries to solve a two issues with music loading:
1. The issue of what occurs when tasks must be restarted or cancelled,
which is common with music loading.
2. Trying to find a good strategy to mediate between service and
ViewModel components in a sensible manner.
Indexer also rolls in a lot of the universal music loading code
alongside this, as much of MusicStore's loading state went unused
by app components and only raised technical challenges when reworking
it.
Rework genre ordering to be alphabetical based on album, but without
all of the mosaic being taken up by one artist.
With the ordering changes that were done previously, genre images
greatly differed compared to previously. May as well use this breakage
as an oppertunity to improve genre ordering. In this case, we want to
order albums alphabetically, as usual, but we also want to prevent
one artist from taking up the whole mosaic. Fix that by deduplicating
artists in the set of grouped albums.
Add an indicator to gague the current music loading progress.
This is actually a lot harder to implement than it might seem, not only
due to UI state issues, but also due to the fact that MusicStore needs
to keep it's state sane across a myriad of possible events that could
occur while loading music. This system seems like a good stopgap until
a full service-backed implementation can be created.
Apply the notifyItemChanged fix everywhere by making it an explicit
part of the RecyclerView framework.
This way, implementing future selection and rewrite behavior will be
much easier, as the payload argument is available in every adapter
implementation.
Fix two major highlighting bugs based around the janky and stupid way
I would handle highlighting previously.
Previously, I would index the views of a RecyclerView in order to
highlight viewholders. In retrospect this was a pretty bad idea,
as viewholders could be in a weird limbo state where they are bound,
but not accessible. I mean, it's in the name. It's a Recycling View.
Fortunately, google actually knew what they were doing and provided
a way to mutate viewholders at runtime using notifyItemChanged.
And the API actually makes sense! Wow! Migrate all detail adapters
to a system that uses notifyItemChanged instead of the terrible
pre-existing system.
Fix a state restore issue that would cause the parent to restore
incorrectly.
At some point, I accidentally used the index for the PlaybackMode field
when restoring the playbackState. This resulted in the playback mode
effectively reverting to ALL_SONGS and causing a number of subtle
issues.
Further refine the Indexer and ExoPlayerBackend implementations.
These fixes were primarily focused on ensuring stable grouping through
stable sorting order, and more graceful handling of edge cases in
ExoPlayerBackend.
Fix a regression where media button controls would no longer work
with GadgetBridge.
In 4a79de4, I assumed that my code was redundant, as there should be
some kind of reciever handling media button events already. I was
completely wrong. Re-add the reciever code (with extra checks) to
make controls work again.
Switch from LiveData to StateFlow.
While LiveData is a pretty good data storage/observer mechanism, it has
a few flaws:
- Values are always nullable in LiveData, even if you make them
non-null.
- LiveData can only be mutated on Dispatchers.Main, which frustrates
possible additions like a more fine-grained music status system.
- LiveData's perks are exclusive to ViewModels, which made coupling
with shared objects somewhat cumbersome.
StateFlow solves all of these by being a native coroutine solution with
proper android bindings. Use it instead.
Move the loading screen into the home view.
Previously, we would use a Snackbar to track the music loading state.
This ended up being a pretty stupid and buggy idea, and would get even
worse with the new music loader changes. Instead, we re-implement the
loading screen into the home view to generally be more sane and
extendable compared to previously.
Make addCallback calls (or similar) initalize the caller by calling the
specific callback methods.
This is primarily intended as a fix to an issue where the music library
would actually reload during a warm start. This is extremely bad, but I
hope it doesn't make the app too unusable until the next version.
Add an ExoPlayer-based metadata backend.
This backend finally allows Auxio to parse metadata internally, which
has been a highly requested feature given how many unfixable MediaStore
issues it would fix.
However, this is not fully ready for production yet. The loading
process becomes much larger with manual parsing, the current
implementation still allocates picture metadata (terrible for
efficiency), and there is no good indicator in the app to keep
track of music loading.
As a result, this backend is disabled until it can be fully integrated
into Auxio's architecture.
Move out the MediaStoreCompat interface into a full interface called
Backend.
In preparation for direct metadata parsing, it would be useful to
create some kind of object system to properly handle the capabilities
of each metadata indexing mode. Backend fulfills that by allowing
each object to implement their own query and then loading routine.
This system is designed somewhat strangely. This is firstly because
the ExoPlayer metadata backend will have to plug in to the original
MediaStore backend, so making methods more granular allows the
ExoPlayer backend to avoid some of the stupid inefficiencies from
the actual MediaStore backend, such as the genre loading process.
We also want to separate the steps of loading music in order to
more adequately show the current loading process to the user in
a future change.
Implement a safe slider wrapper that does not crash with invalid values
as often.
Slider is a terrible component that is not designed with Auxio's
use-case in the slightest. Instead of gracefully degrading with invalid
values, it just crashes the entire app, which is horrible for UX.
Since SeekBar is a useless buggy version-specific sh******ed mess too,
we have no choice but to wrap Slider in a safe view layout that
hopefully hacks with the input enough to not crash the app when doing
simple seeking actions.
I hate android so much.
Resolves#140.
Add disc number sorting to sorts that originally sorted by track.
Forgot to add disc sorting to the other sort modes when adding disc
number support. Fix that.
Create separate routines to parse disc and track numbers in the most
optimal manner.
On API 30 (Android R) and above, ensure that we are using the superior
CD_TRACK_NUMBER and DISC_NUMBER database fields, while below API 30,
stick with the normal TRACK field.
Revert the introduction of the thin/tiny widgets, but keep the new
cover layout I created while working on them.
There is simply no way I can cram controls and metadata within the
size bucket that the thin widget occupies. I have decided to give up
and revert the widget to it's old form.
I understand why the thin widget is not appealing. However, the sizing
at which a widget can properly accomodate a taller widget is just too
precise and not really large enough to justify it's existance.
Also use the gesture insets on playback panel.
Turns out when the panel uses normal insets, the playback panel is
extremely close to the system bars. Fix this by using the bigger
gesture insets.
Resolves#137.
Rework the smallest widgets to have no textual metadata, alongside
adding a new widget size class.
Turns out the last tiny widget redesign made the controls far too
small. Instead, remove the textual metadata and make these widgets
more akin to the small and wide widgets. This also introduces a new
side class alongside that with more controls, again to make it
similar to the other size classes.
Re-add accent customization on Android 12 and above.
Previously, I disabled accent customization since I thought they were
more or less useless with the new Material You dynamic colors system.
Turns out I severely underestimated how horribly OEMs would botch the
dynamic colors system. Guess I was blinded by my adherence to the pixel
line. Re-add the accent customization for those who do not have a good
dynamic color palette at all.
Resolves#131.
Rework the tiny widget to cram even more information into it.
The tiny widget is nominally meant for edge cases like exceptionally
small screens or landscape mode, but apparently it's triggered on some
devices in normal use because of platform fragmentation and OEM insanity.
Update the tiny widget layout with some new buttons in order to make it
more usable in mnormal use. This is still nowehre near ideal. For
example, when triggering the layout on my device, it ends up squishing
the buttons. But it should probably work better outside of those edge
cases.
Hack around more insane lollipop bugs, such as:
- The angular auxio icon crashing the system UI
- Optimized icons being corrupted
- Setting image alpha not working properly
I really wish I could drop support for this horrible version, but I
either have to wait for a major library to drop support or for the
usage numbers to reach 1%.
Replace the hodge-podge framework of state restoration and URI playing
with a single "delayed action" system.
Auxio's initialization routine is a total cluster----. This is mostly
because it involves multiple asynchronous operations such as music
loading, state restore, and service starting which tend to make it
highly prone to race conditions and other insanity.
In particular, the way Auxio would attempt to restore playback and
handle file opening was a spaghetti pile of bad API boundaries and
dubious UI code. This has not changed. I want to move this routine
to the service, but it's lifecycle is also sh------ed to such an
extent where that would be nearly impossible. Instead, this commit
introduces a new "delayed action" system that bites the bullet and
allowes PlaybackViewModel to accept a context and an action in
return for initializing playback...eventually.
I tried my best to eliminate as much memory leaks as I physically
could here, but could only go so far. Still though, even this insane
system is better than the UI-level LiveData shenanigans I did
previously, and actually works compared to the broken android
components that google keeps wanting you to use.
Remove references to android system strings, in favor of in-house
translations.
Previously Auxio would use the `android.R.string.ok` and
`android.R.string.cancel` strings to represent Ok and Cancel
respectively, but these system strings are actually untranslated on
some devices, so it is better for i18n if we use our own strings
for such.
Implement a UI frontend for customizing the ReplayGain pre-amp value.
This finally completes Auxio's ReplayGain implementation. Not only
that, it also shows how Auxio can use positive ReplayGain values,
unlike other apps.
As a side-note, this also fiddles with the dialog style somewhat.
I got carried away.
Resolves#114.
Implement an internal setting for a ReplayGain pre-amp setting.
Pre-amp is a lot like above reference volume regarding Auxio's
ReplayGain implementation, where I want to implement it in order
to allow ReplayGain to graduate from being labeled "experimental".
No UI frontend has been implemented just yet.
Add sorting modes for duration and song count.
This was requested previously in the now-closed UI/UX changes
megathread, however I have only gotten to it now.
Add recovery code to the music indexer in the case that Android doesn't
provide the DISPLAY_NAME field.
Nominally this should never happen, but OEMs will OEM and apparently
this does happen on some devices. Try to recover by grokking DATA for
a file name.
Rework the sort implementation to allow Auxio to leverage it's sorting
capabilities in a more powerful manner.
This is mostly the removal of stupid redunant methods and the change of
Sort overrides to sort in-place. This just gives us the option to avoid
full blown list copies in cases where such is reasonable.
Finalize the disc number implementation within Auxio.
This is probably one of the most widely-requested features outside
of playlisting. This implementation also adds some more fine grained
sorting modes for disc numbers in particular, which actually removes
some of the quirkiness of the Sort class.
Resolves#96.
Change the indexer to parse out the disc number field from
AudioColumns.TRACK.
On newer versions, I hope to further modify the loader to use
the API 30+ CD_TRACK_NUMBER field, as it is more versatile than
TRACK.
Add the UI and data components for a disc number value within the album
detail view.
This is the first-step of a multi-step addition to finally implement
disc numbers.
Make MediaButtonReceiver an empty class without any behavior.
The previous manner in which Auxio would handle media button events
was actually bad, as in certain cases (like a rewind or if there was
no song playing) Auxio would actually crash, as the service would
not start a foreground state in time.
Fix this by removing that functionality. This should hopefully still
retain the current state.
Try to rework the playback service components to reduce race conditions
and improve readability.
This changeset has gone through a number of changes. I originally
wanted to unify all cover loading under a single "Component Manager",
but this turned out to be stupid given that the three service components
are different in nearly every way. Instead I just reworked them all
individually by introducing a new less-data race-prone image loading
framework, and moving around a bunch of code I was planning to move
around.
Do some miscellanious formatting reworks.
1. Remove all instances of m in favor of _. _ is only used when names
collide or if something should be internal.
2. Make fragments apply their own click listeners.
3. Remove instances of inc/dec and replace them with the more
straightfoward + 1 or - 1.
Split off the "songs loaded" about item into it's own card called
"library statistics"
This card includes the song, album, artist, and genre counts,
alongside a total duration of the music library. This is just more
informative and useful to the user.
Resolves#121.
Rework state restore to be more coherent and in line with the new
member layout of the general
This primarily involves making the index the primary database attribute
in favor of song, with the old song id field becoming a sanity check
field.
Fix miscellanious bugs and clean the component code.
Currently the components are in a strange state. They are a big ball of
mud with inconsistent lifecycles and callbacks. I want to find a way to
unify them under a single lifecycle, but the competing nature of them
makes this extremely difficult.
Rename LoopMode to RepeatMode, which is generally much clearer
than the previous name.
This changes all non-breaking instances of "loop" in the app with
"repeat".
Rework the asynchronous aspects of MusicStore to rely on a more
conventional callback system.
In preparation for automatic rescanning, it would be more elegant
for music consumers to use a callback, so that updates can be
registered easier than if a co-routine continued to be used.
Convert MusicStore to this new model and rework the accesses of
MusicStore in-app to line up with this new system.
Create a ViewModel for the more complicated navigation pathways.
Normally, navigation was fragmented along a complicated stretch of
fragment hacks and DetailViewModel's navToItem attitbute, both of which
were not really that ideal. Dumpster them for a single, unified
viewmodel for the more complicated navigation situations. This removes
much of the duplicate navigation logic and is likely much more
maintainable for future situations.
Rework the style of all album covers in the app to be more in line with
the new track number style.
This is mostly comprised of adding a new background to all cover views
and rescaling error icons to be smaller than they would normally be.
This also includes a change in the cover/track background color from
colorSurfaceVariant to colorOnSurfaceInverse, which seems to provide
the best visibility in all cases.
These changes also apply to the track number views.
Update the album song layout to be more alike to other songs.
Recently I migrated the TextView in the album songs to use 48dp sizing,
like the other song views. However, this resulted in a lot of empty
space that felt off. Fix this by adding a light background to the track
number, which fills the room it takes up a bit more. It also hopefully
primes the track number to take an indicator once multi-select is
added.
Remove extraneous encodings from ReplayGainAudioProcessor.
According to the ExoPlayer developers, an AudioProcessor is only
provided 16-bit PCM data. This makes all of the other encodings I
had implemented in ReplayGainAudioProcessor useless, as their
cases would never run. Remove those extraneous encodings and just
just 16-bit PCM.
Implement support for positive ReplayGain values.
Turns out the blocker for this with the new AudioProcessor was that
I did not properly clamp PCM data when I manipulated the data,
resulting in target samples like 75491 being truncated to lower
values like 9955, which resulted in popping. This is a niche addition,
but also puts Auxio in a category that no other (FOSS) android music
player currently occupies. Yay.
Resolves#115.
Create an AudioProcessor implementation for ReplayGain.
Now that ExoPlayer handles AudioFocus, the ReplayGain implementation
would conflict with the changes that ducking would make to the volume.
To fix this, migrate the ReplayGain implementation to a dedicated
audio processor. This not only resolves this system, but also opens the
door for positive ReplayGain values in the future. Currently however,
our method for modifying the bitstream results in popping with values
above the reference volume, so some more work must be done in that
regard.
Rework audio focus to rely on the native ExoPlayer implementation
instead of a custom implementation.
Previously, we avoided ExoPlayer's AudioFocus system as it never
played after a transient lost. A few versions later now through,
now it does, so we may as well switch to it. This does introduce
a bug where ReplayGain functionality will conflict with audio
focus, but I hope to eliminate this with #115 as I switch to
an AudioProcessor instead of a callback.
Audit null safety to remove extraneous and stupid calls while
optimizing certain checks here and there.
This commit is primarily centered around the introduction of a new
utility: unlikelyToBeNull. This call uses requireNotNull on debug
builds and !! on release builds, which allows for bug catching in
an easier manner on normal builds while also allowing for
optimizations on the release builds.
Migrate all esoteric adapters to the new RecyclerView framework.
One of the shortcomings with the previous RecyclerView utilities was
how more esoteric adapters with data that does not implement Item
could not use the utlities. The new system, by comparison, is capable
of taking any type of data, so we can no migrate all of the esoteric
adapters to the new system.
Fix an issue where album covers fail to load when not explicitly
specifying a size.
At some point, Coil changed some internal scaling logic to depend on
this weird pseudo-screen size value that caused the bitmap to fail
to load only on in widget creation process. Who knows why. Fix this
by explicitly specifying the size in all cases.
Spin off the data instances into their own class called BackingData.
This is to isolate the sane adapters that rely on one type of diffing
from the insane adapters that use synchronous and asynchronous diffing
simultaniously. It also allows some of the more esoteric adapters to
implement their own backing data without much trouble or leaky
abstractions.
Completely rework the base adapter class to require less boilerplate
and properly handle cases such as diffing. The major adapters have
been migrated to this system, but the other adapters have not been
changed so far.
This is only part 1 of a multi-part rework, as this is an incredibly
complex system.
Remove databinding entirely.
Databinding was a terrible idea for Auxio. I rarely leveraged it, and
when I did, it produced messy code and bloated build times. Dumpster it
for just viewbinding, which is good. This reduces building times by
nearly 2/3, and generally makes the codebase more coherent and usable.
Move all fragment instances to the new ViewBindingFragment paradigm,
which should help immensely with reducing memory leaks from list
bindings and to really alleviate the overloaded onCreate functions.
