Enable WKWebView's elementFullscreenEnabled at startup. It is off by
default in a Tauri window, which is why the native player had no
full-screen button and why right-click 'Enter Full Screen' did nothing.
With it on, WebKit's own control appears on the video and gives the real
system fullscreen player, so the app-level workaround is gone.
Restore window dragging: data-tauri-drag-region needs
core:window:allow-start-dragging, which was missing, leaving the
title-bar strip inert.
Download quality is now a resolution picker (best/2160/1440/1080/720/
480) instead of a two-way toggle; every selector still pins AAC audio
because Opus in MP4 is silent in WebKit.
Tile titles truncate to a single line so rows stay uniform, and the
player shows a spinner while the video buffers, not just while the
stream URL resolves.
The full-screen button did nothing: WKWebView inside a Tauri window has
element fullscreen disabled outright, so both requestFullscreen() and
WebKit's webkitEnterFullscreen() are inert, and Tauri exposes no switch
for it. Fullscreening the window alone is not the same thing either —
the player's header and footer stay on screen around the picture. The
button now fullscreens the window and hides every piece of chrome, so
the video alone fills the display, with Esc and a hover control to exit.
Prev/next also get large arrows on the left and right edges of the
picture, fading in on hover, alongside the header buttons.
Window chrome: titleBarStyle Overlay (Transparent left the native bar in
place, white in dark mode, with a dead strip beneath it). The app now
paints that strip itself, so it matches the page background.
Player: prev/next through the feed, a full-screen button, a spinner
while a stream resolves, Open on YouTube on downloaded videos too, and
the description collapsed behind a disclosure.
Downloads default to Best, which reaches real 4K — above 1080p YouTube
serves VP9/AV1, verified to play natively in WKWebView here. Audio stays
pinned to AAC because Opus in MP4 would be silent. A Compatible setting
keeps the old 1080p H.264 behaviour. Files are now named
'<ISO date> - <title> [<id>].mp4'.
Watch progress is recorded and drawn under thumbnails like YouTube's,
and reopening a video resumes where it left off.
Tiles clamp every text line to a fixed height so they share a baseline,
and the search field no longer clips its placeholder.
Fixes a Picture-in-Picture leak: WebKit kept a detached video playing
after the player closed, so a second video could play over the first
with no way to stop it. Every exit path now tears the element down.
Deleting a download removed the database row but left its entry in the
live-progress map, so the row kept showing Saved and an Offline badge
until the app restarted.
Clicking an undownloaded video now plays it in the app instead of
handing off to the browser. YouTube's iframe embed cannot be used —
it rejects a tauri:// origin with Error 153 — so yt-dlp resolves
YouTube's HLS master playlist instead, whose H.264+AAC variants
AVFoundation streams natively in WKWebView, adaptive up to 1080p.
Adds an optional Tiles view alongside the list, remembered between
launches.
The title bar is now transparent with the title hidden, and the app
paints that strip itself in the page background so it matches instead
of showing macOS chrome beside the traffic lights.
Adds a seven-step in-app guide to exporting subscriptions from Google
Takeout, with the real URLs opened in the system browser.
Restyles the app onto the supplied design system: slate/sky palette,
9-15px type ladder, outline-first controls, tiered radii, borders for
separation and shadows only for elevation. Light and dark are both
designed, with a System/Light/Dark control and a pre-paint script so
the window does not flash light on a dark machine.
Importing now replaces the subscription list rather than merging, per
request. Because that can delete downloaded files, a confirmation
dialog names exactly what will go first.
ffmpeg only accepts -version (single dash); it exits 8 on --version and
writes to stderr, so the status panel reported it missing even when
installed. Version flags are now per-tool and both streams are read.
The player used max-h-full inside a grid, which a 1080x1920 Short
overflowed. Switched to absolute fill with object-contain so portrait
and landscape both letterbox correctly.
Also sized the window to 1180x780 centered, which fits a laptop display.
Adds an end-to-end integration test that runs the real pipeline against
live YouTube Atom feeds, verifying the merged feed is newest-first
across channels.
Refresh fetches 8 channel feeds concurrently and mirrors thumbnails to
disk so the offline feed still renders. Downloads are capped at 2 and
shell out to yt-dlp with an absolute binary path, since GUI apps do not
inherit a login shell PATH.
37 unit tests covering the three parsers and the database, including
that a feed refresh preserves download state and that a truncated
feed response fails rather than storing partial results.
Offline-first YouTube subscription feed reader: Takeout CSV import,
public Atom feeds for metadata, yt-dlp downloads constrained to
H.264/AAC for in-app WKWebView playback.
