FlattenedItem now stores only essential fields (path, name, is_dir, depth)
instead of cloning entire FileTreeNode structures. For 500,000 files, this
reduces memory from ~100 MB to ~50 MB for the flattened view.
- Extract only needed fields in flatten_tree()
- Add find_node_by_path() helper to look up full nodes when needed
- Update all UI and state code to use new structure
- Remove tokio async runtime dependency (~2MB reduction)
- Optimize fuzzy search to avoid string allocations
- Optimize incremental search to only rebuild tree when needed
- Extract duplicate scrolling logic to helper function
- Replace magic numbers with named constants
- Fix terminal cleanup to run even on error
- Fix context menu item count mismatch
- Remove unused metadata fields (duration, codec, hash)
When rapidly pressing play/pause, MPV briefly reports idle-active
as true during state transitions. Combined with our player_state
being set to Playing after unpause, this incorrectly triggered the
auto-play next track logic.
Fix: Add is_paused() check to auto-play condition to ensure we only
advance to next track when the current track actually ends, not
during pause state transitions.
Add Left/Right arrow keys as alternatives to h/l for collapsing
and expanding folders in the file panel. Provides more intuitive
navigation for users not familiar with vim keybindings.
- Left arrow: Collapse selected folder (same as 'h')
- Right arrow: Expand selected folder (same as 'l')
When MPV is paused and a new file is loaded via loadfile command,
MPV loads the file but remains in a paused state. This caused the
UI to show "Playing" while no audio was actually playing.
Fix: Explicitly call resume() after every play() call to ensure
MPV unpauses when loading new files. This applies to:
- Playing new folder/file selections
- Playing from playlist
- Auto-play next/previous track
- Removing currently playing track from playlist
Fixes bug where after pause, playing another folder would show
"Playing" status but remain silent at 00:00.
Extract duplicate logic into shared action functions to ensure
consistent behavior between keyboard and mouse interactions:
- action_remove_from_playlist: Unified playlist removal logic
- action_play_from_playlist: Unified playlist playback with optional
pause state preservation
- handle_context_menu_action: Unified context menu execution
Fixes:
- Remove from playlist now checks index before removal (was broken
in keyboard 'd' handler)
- Mouse double-click on playlist now preserves pause state
- Context menu handling no longer duplicated across 400+ lines
All keyboard and mouse actions now use identical code paths,
eliminating state bugs from inconsistent implementations.
Change position update logic to only trigger redraw when the
displayed value (rounded to seconds) changes, not when the raw
float value changes. This eliminates jumpy time display and
reduces unnecessary redraws.
