Four things the car could not do, all from a process with no Activity.
A streamed playlist row plays cold when its bytes are already here. The
page's memory of which peer file a catalog track resolved to lived only in
localStorage; it is mirrored now to `<data>/stream-sources.json`
(stream_sources.rs) — every remembered source, and the whole store once at
boot — and auto_browse.rs looks a row up there, computes its cache file
with the same hash playback::cache_path uses, and calls it playable when
the file is byte-complete. GhettoTechie reads "8 of 40 here" cold and a
tapped row plays from the cache with its catalog cover and colour.
The car resumes, the way every other player does. Where playback was is in
`<data>/resume.json` (resume.rs): the page names the queue whenever it
writes its session, the engine's pump keeps the position. media3's
MediaButtonReceiver is declared, so a PLAY key into a dead app — a
Bluetooth head unit, the Quick Settings card, Auto's autoplay on
connection — starts the service and lands in onPlaybackResumption, which
answers with the `ss:resume` row; the RECENT root serves the same row, and
the Recent tab lists it first. A force-stopped app came back PLAYING where
it left off from one `cmd media_session dispatch play`.
The car is told. A tap that cannot play — a streamed row with no cache copy
while the app is cold, a hand-off the resolver refused — used to be
silence. MediaHub.fail puts the reason in the playback state (STATE_ERROR,
which Auto draws as a card) and sends a SessionError carrying "Open
SoulStream"; the next track withdraws it. The page reports its own verdict
through the new `remote_failed` command.
Every tap while the app is UP is the page's. A library row tapped in the
car used to start on the engine underneath the page's own queue — the bar
naming one track while another played. `AutoNative.describe` spells the
row for the page and `playMediaId` plays it as the page's queue; the plugin
disarms the hand-off in onDestroy, and with the page gone the card's
transport goes to the engine. When the app opens over a car session, the
headless queue is handed to the page once (`playback::init` takes it before
clearing) and restoreSession builds the bar from it.
Every playlist row is playable: Auto draws a non-playable, non-browsable
item as a tile and BROWSES it on tap ("No items"). Rows that need the app
say so and fail on tap with the card; rows whose file is here wear the
host's own downloaded mark. The Recent tab's album subtitle counted played
tracks; it counts the album's now. The page never clears the resume point
and only drops its own session once it has booted — a visibility change
under a launch with the screen off wiped both.
The Soulseek session dials itself back after a drop. A server connection
dies for reasons that are nobody's — the phone changes networks, Android
freezes a backgrounded process past the five-minute keepalive — and until
now every one of those ended as `Event::Disconnected`, the page stamped
offline, and every streamed track after it refused with "sign in on
Community"; in a car nobody opens the login card. `schedule_reconnect`
redials with the stored credentials at 5, 15, 45, 120, then 300 s with
jitter, under the server's rapid-login throttle. Every session carries a
generation: an explicit login or disconnect bumps it, a redial loop stands
down when the user acts, and a drop reported by an OLDER session's pump
(login_inner shuts the old client down and its reader reports after the new
session is up) no longer stamps the fresh session offline — that race was
there all along. The page shows "connecting" on `reconnecting`, the
resolver waits up to twenty seconds for a dial in progress, and debug
builds expose `debug_drop_connection`. Verified by the debug command (drop →
redial 1 in 5 s → online at 7 s) and by a real drop when the head unit
connected: redial 1 failed on DNS, redial 2 at +15 s logged in.
The notification storm was media3 restarting the service into
onStartCommand. The morning's logcat had the card re-posted six times a
second for over a minute ("Package enqueue rate is 6.6 … Shedding"), then
"Too many PendingIntent created for uid" (media3 mints a fresh one for the
custom button on every rebuild), then twenty refused foreground starts in
two hundred milliseconds. media3 starts this service ITSELF on every
foreground notification update — MediaNotificationManager.startForeground
calls startForegroundService(startSelfIntent), a bare component intent with
nothing but a uid extra — and onStartCommand promoted on every intent it
saw, which re-posted the card, which made media3 start the service again.
It ran for as long as the service was foreground: while a track played,
and for the ten-minute tail after a pause (the capture stops at pause +
10:00 exactly). onStartCommand now promotes only for an intent that carries
an action or a data uri. A 250 ms coalescer on card rebuilds
(MediaHub.refreshSoon) logs the rate; it stayed silent through the storm,
which is what pointed at the restart. A full minute of playback after the
fix: zero shedding lines, zero PendingIntent complaints, zero refused
starts.
Verified on the Desktop Head Unit and the Pixel: the tree, the Continue
row, cold cached playback, the error card and recovery from it, the warm
hand-off, the media-key resume, the redial; mock walk 255/255, phone walk
142/142.
