feat(cast): music on the TV, the music bar as its remote

2026-10-05T00:29:27Z

A cast button in Music's toolbar and in the music bar. With a television chosen, each decrypted track goes to the relay with its cover — found as the album card finds it — and plays there as music with its title, artist and album; the bar's play, pause, seek, previous and next drive the receiver, its clock is the receiver's, and the end of a track there moves the queue on. A film or a photo taking the television pauses the bar; stopping the cast carries the track on locally. Photos and tracks now share one path: a whole file sent to the relay in pieces (binary frames on Android, written to disk there), served at /file with byte ranges and its cover at /cover, and loaded as what the relay says it is. cast:image is gone; cast:chromecast:seek is new.

feat(cast): photos on the TV, and a television chosen once for the session

A cast button in Videos' toolbar, at the top of Photos, in an album's bar and in the lightbox, in a group and in Search alike. A television chosen there is kept for the session: a film opened plays on it with the player as its remote from the start, and a photo opened in the lightbox is shown on it, scaled to 1920x1080, upright, as JPEG. The lightbox gains a slideshow. The relay serves one photo at /image behind the stream's token, on the desktop and on Android; the shell, not the page, decides that the receiver loads it as a picture. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5
