The reported 'APK crash' turned out not to exist: repeated full scans of
all installed extensions load cleanly. The real incident was the app's
quit sequence stopping the bridge (its /stop endpoint) while requests
were in flight - and it exposed that a bridge dying for any reason left
the anime browser failing every call with a raw 'fetch failed' until
the whole app was restarted.
SidecarHandle now reports the child's exit (including to late
subscribers), and the runtime detects a death it did not order: it
drops the dead handle, closes the strip proxy, tells the UI, and the
next request transparently starts a fresh bridge. requireBridge became
an async bridge() that starts on demand, which also covers first use.
Verified live: search -> SIGKILL the JVM -> search recovers.
Some hosts prepend a fake image header (a real 1x1 PNG) to every HLS
segment; ffmpeg probes the segment as a picture and mpv drops back to
idle with no window while the browser claims the episode is playing.
- Route bridge-served m3u8 streams through a local strip proxy that
scans each segment for the first genuine MPEG-TS packet run and drops
the junk in front of it; playlists get absolute origins rewritten so
segment requests come back through the proxy. Non-TS bodies pass
through untouched.
- Only report ok from playEpisode once mpv configures a video output;
an end-file with reason error surfaces mpv's own message (e.g. "no
audio or video data played") in the browser status bar instead of
"Playing". New end-file event plumbed through the mpv IPC client.
- Add `subminer anime` / `--anime` and a tray entry to open a browser that searches installed Aniyomi extension sources, shows cover art and episodes, and plays into mpv with overlay/mining attached
- Add an Extensions tab to add repos and install/update/remove sources, and per-source settings for sources needing config
- Support searching all sources at once with streaming, per-source results and status
- Prefer Japanese audio/subtitle tracks from the source and keep the primary subtitle slot reserved for Japanese
- Fix window/tray/Dock handling so the browser and mpv can be switched between without quitting the app or losing the Dock icon
- Add anime.repos, anime.extensionsDir, anime.preferredQuality config keys (no bundled repos or discovery)
