Handle errors from databases.
Either way, a crash from a database or a silent error will be equally
nightmarish to debug. May as well keep going if they fail.
Make artist images sort by count instead of by name.
I've recently added a few singles in my library that have been
cluttering the previous artist image algorithm with non-ideal
covers. Instead of sorting by name (Which was really an artifact
of the old MediaStore engine anyway), sort by the amount of songs
of each album instead, which hopefully should weight images less
towards singles and more towards albums (And especially albums
the user likes).
Add a setting to hide "collaborators", that is artists that do not show
up on any album artist tags.
This is mostly for my own use since I don't get use from useless
collaborator entries.
If a song/album date has a month value, show it in the UI.
This hopefully improves the date experience for more well-tagged
libraries. Due to date limitations however, it is limited to
Android O onwards for now.
Unify the "Show Covers" and "Ignore MediaStore Covers" settings under an
new "Album covers" setting.
This will make it easier to extend to new forms of album cover
collection.
Add a toggle to control the IS_MUSIC=1 selector.
This is normally used to remove non-music like podcasts and ringtones,
however some people use Auxio was a general-purpose audio player for
these files, so this setting can be used to disable that selector and
load non-music.
Resolves#246.
Add semi-complete support for multiple artists.
This changeset completely reworks the music linker to add the following
new behaviors:
1. Artists are now derived from both artist and album artist tags,
with them being linked to songs and albums respectively
2. Albums and songs can now have multiple artists that can be distinct
from eachother
3. Previous Genre picking infrastructure has been removed and replaced
with artist picking infrastructure. "Play from genre" has been retired
entirely.
This is a clean break to the previous artist model and may not work
with all libraries. Steps to migrate the music library will be added
to the changelog.
Resolves#195.
Add a dialog for picking a genre from several choices.
This basically completes multi-genre support in Auxio, save more
internal reworks.
Note that it is extremely likely that the "Play from genre" setting
will be removed soon. This feature has made me realize that such does
not many any real sense, as genres are more semantically similar to
playlists than artists or albums. This implementation only exists to
make multi-artist support an easy plug-and-play operation.
Resolves#201
Add support for compilation + live, compilation + remix,
and compilation + dj-mix release types.
This was not included due to the changes it required to the
parser. Turns out these changes are largely trivial if I do
more clever inlining.
Merge DisplayMode and PlaybackMode into a new class called MusicMode.
Both of these datatypes represented similar things, and thus it's much
easier to make them the same datatype. Moreover, it makes the
forthcoming addition of the music selector much easier if the same
datatype was tied to the representation of music.
This commit also moves around things around the project to be slightly
more coherent.
Refactor all Backend instances into a new package called extractor and
a new structure called "Layer".
Layers are no longer generalized into an interface. Instead, they build
on eachother in order to produce a correct output of raw songs.
One of these layers is a stub class to eventually implement caching.
This changeset also phases out the "Ignore MediaStore tags" setting, as
it is no longer needed.
Add a basic framework for user-customizeable separators.
This is designed to be extendable if needed, albeit the app will likely
only let the user choose between +, ;, /, &, and ,.
Make the shape of the play/pause buttons throughout the app morph from
a circle if paused to a square if playing.
Android 13 seemingly does this to their play/pause button, so we copy
it too.
Tangentally related to #162.
Migrate MediaSessionComponent to android 13.
This was primarily implementing custom actions with the media session
and adding some extra bug fixes that I was already planning. I was
really hoping that google fixes the nightmarish mess that was the
previous MediaStyle notification, where I had to update the session
and then the notification in a tight dance with clever tricks to not
get rate-limited, but nope. I still have to do exactly the same thing
as beforehand, but with even extra insanity due to the custom actions.
Auxio tried to leverage built-in android string attributes for Ok and
Cancel while still completing them for other translations that were not
supported by the OS.
Turns out this was a terrible idea when I switched to Weblate, which
has no knowledge of this trick and could lead to a misleading
translation value. Remove it.
Resolves#215.
Move all menu functionality from long-click to a menu button.
This is in preparation for #93, as I need to free up the long-click
for a selection option. The spacing isn't really consistent at all,
but that's because I wanted to make something that looks right
depending on the context.
Replace the song options button in the playback menu with a button that
opens the equalizer.
I plan to re-introduce the song options in another location.
Remove the "Off" ReplayGain setting, as it is mostly meaningless.
Users who don't want ReplayGain can remove the tags from their files.
No efficiency benefits either since the audio processor is always
disabled without replaygain tags. It is better not to confuse users
who do have ReplayGain but wonder why it is not working on their
files because the setting is off.
Add the ability to customize the bar action to the repeat mode or
shuffle state.
This is a much smaller implementation than what I planned, mostly
because other options did not make much sense (queue) or were
superceded by better options (clear state).
Resolves#108.
Update transitions in the home fragment to X-axis.
I noticed a visual issue in the detail transition in the existing
version stemming from how the main fragment's drawing is clipped by
the bottom sheet, resulting in a less-than-ideal Z-axis transition.
While I wanted to fix this by attempting to switch to inset based
bottom sheet management, I still need to wait for more changes in
order to successfully pull that off, and hence I'll be reverting it
soon.
Moving these transitions to X-axis prevents this visual issue while
still being roughly semantically similar.
Add an item type indicator to the top of the detail header.
This is primarily for release type functionality, but also makes it
more clear the item one is looking at.
Fix lints that have accumulated over time.
Apparently Android Studio just...stopped using lints. For no reason. I
had to upgrade to the beta version to actually get lints.
Remove useless id fields from Headers, replacing them with vlaues
related to their string resource.
String resources and disc numbers are more or less garunteed to be
unique in Auxio's context.
Fix two issues where Auxio's widget could not be resized to a single
cell, and another where covers would not load into the widget.
The first is caused by a random, subtle change that completely changed
up the minHeight size calculation regarding widgets. Thus, we need to
lower it for android to recognize it still as 1 cell. I cannot believe
we can't just specify the specific minimum grid size that our widget
takes up, like you know, iOS did, nearly a decade after widgets were
first added in Android.
The second is an absurd race condition stemming from me hitting the
RemoteViews memory limit. Turns out my cover bitmaps were simply too
big. Getting them below the limit requires me to resize them to a puny
~500 pixels. Why can't we just render our own views into our widget?
You know, like iOS did, nearly a decade after widgets were first added
to Android.
Nah, screw modernizing the broken widget API. Let's just vaguely copy
iOS widgets because we have to while not fixing a single issue plaguing
widget development on this OS. That way some google engineer can get
promoted faster.
Use BottomSheetBehavior with the playback sheet.
This is the result of two weeks of painful hacking to get a working
implementation that did not immediately have a brain aneursym. It
also requires me to still vendor BottomSheetBehavior for the time
being. However, this greatly reduces technical issues on my end and
allows the addition of new playback UI concepts, while still
retaining the UI fluidity of prior.
Unify the background state layers of the entire app by overriding
colorControlHighlight.
Lots of components still use it, so it's beneficial to make it
consistent with the rest of the app theming.
Rework the queue internally to decouple the queue from playback and
better respond to reshuffling.
This is being implemented under the assumption that I will be
implementing the sliding queue eventually.
Add an option to clear the currently saved playback state.
This does not clear playback entirely, but rather remove the saved
state so that it's not restored on the next startup. This is generally
the cleanest solution compared to allowing state restore to be toggled,
which opens up a bunch of race conditions.
Resolves#107.
Rework album types into release types, with additional support for live
albums, remixes, and mixtapes.
This is not a complete implementation, nor is it meant to be. I don't
want to add technical complexity handling Remix Compilations or
DJ-Mixes unless there is demand.
Update MDC to the alpha version in order to use some extra features.
I was planning to switch to the new MaterialSwitch, but alpha03 has
this insane crippling issue with ripples that blocks such. Use alpha02
and prep the app for the addition of the switch.
Set the enforce*BarContrast methods to false above API 29, so we can
use fully transparent navigation and status bars.
Previously, we used a mostly transparent color for such, but now, we
can use a completely transparent color without it being changed to
match contrast.
Implement sort tag support in the ExoPlayer backend.
Sort tags for grouping is still derived from the templates. Album
artist sort tags are only picked if one is present. System might be
a bit buggy at the moment given that it messes with grouping/sorting
a little.
Resolves#172.
Add a "Last Added" sorting option to the home UI's song list.
I don't know if there is any demand for last added in other contexts.
That will be resolved later.
Add automatic rescanning, for real.
This is the culmination of 6 months of work to make Auxio respond to
music updates and to research the most versatile implementation of
such. Is it the best system? No. It's actually a bit messy by necessity
in order to prevent bugs. Does it work well? Yes.
This will not be enabled by default, as it does require a battery
draining foreground service and is generally not useful for most
circumstances.
So glad to be done with this.
Resolves#72.
Remove the ripple resources and replace them with their system
counterparts.
This is to remove redundancy in-app and make the widget more consistent
with other android widgets.
Improve the indexer callback system to be more coherent and efficient.
This delegates the old Callback role to a new singular Callback and
Controller roles. IndexerService also handles the loading process
more gracefully, reducing the amount of time music loads take.
Rework the rounded covers option into a new "Round Mode" option.
This commit extends the rounded corners configuration to now the
widget, thus making the setting apply now to covers, the bar, and
the widget configuration. This makes a naming change useful.
Further rework the button layout to be alike to other modern widgets.
This changeset transforms the play button into a FAB-ish thing,
makes spacing coherent between the uses of each layout, and adds
spacers to make the buttons layout in a more appealing way.
Update the library update process to be on a co-routine, updating
callbacks on the main thread.
For some insane reason, the Main dispatcher used normally when
loading music just disappears sometimes. This leads to unpleasent
crashes as callbacks expect to be called on the app thread, not
any background threads.
Fix this by forcing the Main dispatcher during the update process.
This requires the music update process to also run on a background
thread, albeit that will be useful for automatic rescanning late ron.
Completely rework Auxio's iconography based on the new material symbols
icon set.
This does the following:
1. Switches the sharp + filled icon style to an outlined + round icon
style.
2. Removes 32dp icons from everywhere except the playback panel.
This does not:
1. Actually handle optical sizes right. This is going to take some more
work to make it harmonious with the current UI.
2. Update margins in some places to be harmonious with the new icons.
This is also going to take some more work to do properly.
Rework the bottom sheet layout process to accomodate the new rounded
corners and be far more efficient.
This removes the weird content layout code and moves it into the inset
code, which not only allows content to show in the corners, but also
allows us to minimize the amount of layouts that we normally perform.
Remove the TitleMidLarge style, replacing it with more Material3
attributes.
This finally removes all of the non-standard text styles. There is
still the two TitleMedium styles, but this is considered okay.
In the playback view, TitleMidLarge has become TitleLarge, which
honestly works quite well, as the same text styles are used in the
detail views.
Rework Sort again into a new class that leverages a better Mode design
and static comparator instances.
This somewhat improves efficiency, but is also far easier to work with
and has far less footguns with adding new sorts.
Completely rework app typography.
Today I found out that inter has a tool that allowed you to generate
line spacings for a particular font size. Several hours later, I
regenerated the entirety of Auxio's typography to use this new system.
Moreso, I also tried to eliminate some of the non-standard text styles
that I was using prior. That failed. Mostly there's two edge-cases
regarding title bolding and the playback view that I simply cannot
work through right now, since M3's typography system is horribly
restrictive.
Add a new "Detail playback mode" option that allows one to configure
what selecting a song will do in an album/artist/genre.
This is mostly a clone of the prior setting, just in a new context.
Resolves#164.
Rework the preference classes to reduce the horrible bloat of the
recursivelyHandlePreference function.
This was mostly implementing new methods into IntListPreference and
adding a new preference to represent the weird, "generic" dialogs that
are used at points. While some preferences still need to be tweaked in
recursivelyHandlePreference, it is nowhere near as bad as it was prior.
Revamp the shared object SettingsManager into a standalone utility
called Settings.
This makes many things easier in Auxio. It completely unifies the key
format that we use (Android Strings instead of Java consts), eliminates
the pretty dumb initialization method that we use, and eliminates the
dubiousness of holding a Context-related utility in a global field.
The only cost was having to migrate even more ViewModels to Android
ViewModels. Whatever.
Add a shortcut to shuffle all songs.
This is likely the only static shortcut Auxio will have. Top tracks
and recently added are completely useless for me, so I will never
add them. I may add more dynamic shortcuts for recently played items,
however.
Note that we use a basic black shuffle icon here. I will not add icon
customization to these shortcuts.
Remove the temporary 28dp hack that was applied to the playback bar.
This finally puts the playback bar in line with all other icon
components. The playback panel is still weird, but that's okay since
it's a full screen view and the buttons can take up more space.
Since I absolutely hate change, I had to effectively frog-boil myself
in order to do this, first downsizing the icon from 32dp to 28dp, and
then from 28dp down to 24dp. I can't believe I care about this so much.
Use ServiceCompat.stopForeground instead of stopForeground.
This is preliminary preparation for Android 13. I can only change SDK
versions however when the Android Gradle Plugin makes a new release
though.
Switch the excluded directory system to StorageVolume.
This finally removes dependence on the in-house Volume constructs, and
also completely extends fully music folder selection support to all
versions that Auxio supports.
This is possibly one of the most invasive and risky reworks I have done
with Auxio's music loader, but it's also somewhat exciting, as no other
music player I know of handles Volumes like I do.
Leverage StorageVolume when working with file paths.
StorageVolume is android's navive API for handling external volumes.
Ideally, we would want to replace our built-in volume class with this
new API, however doing so is somewhat complicated as some methods only
exist on newer API levels. This is only the first step until we are
able to migrate the excluded directory system to this as well.
Make some ViewModel instances AndroidViewModels in order to make some
code less insane.
I don't like doing this, as I want to keep ViewModel instances clean of
android things, but this just makes a lot of functionality easier to
implement.
Only show codecs in the "format" field, if we are able to extract them.
This is primarily for consistency, as there is no way for us to
determine the container format outside of an extension (which could not
be sane).
Fix an API 21-specific bug that could result in covers not loading when
quality covers was enabled.
This stemmed from a use of `use` on MediaMetadataRetriever, which
relied on an interface not present on the class on API 21.
Completely rework the excluded directory system into a new
"Music Folders" system.
This is implemented alongside a new "Include" mode. This mode
allows the user to restrict music indexing to a parsicular folder.
I've been reluctant to add this feature, as having two separate
options seemed bad. This resolves it by effectively packing whether
to include/exclude directories into a single option.
Resolves#154.
Heavily improve the way Auxio handles shows formats in the song
properties view.
This is composed of the following:
- Using ExoPlayer to find a format-specific mime type before having to
fall back to other solutions
- Keeping around the format and extension mime types so that each is
picked in the best circumstances
- Using MediaFormat to also retrieve a format-specific mime type in the
case that ExoPlayer parsing is disabled
- Adding special names for the most common formats
Use basic scroll indicators when a dialog shows a list.
Mostly for material guidelines. Excluded dialogs and int pref dialog
have not been modified, as I am still working on revamping those.
Add support for file size, format, and parent directory values to the
MediaStore backend.
I hope that this handles API boundaries properly, especially regarding
path parsing. As a side-note, I have learned of a way to extend
external volume support to even earlier versions. Maybe.
Add a new view called ImageGroup that will handle all advanced image
hacks from now on.
This includes the indicator (which is now animated), any selection
indicators, and the weirdness of the album song image. All of that
is now handled by ImageGroup. This is the culmination of probably
a day and a half of wrangling with android insanity and having to
remove a lot of what I liked about the indicator in order to make
this work on a basic level.
The only major bug I am currently aware of with this is that the
indicator is bugged out on Lollipop devices due to bad vectors.
Again.
I never want to do this again. I cannot believe that adding a basic
indicator took this long and required so much stupid hacks and
inefficient code. And then google wonders why android apps are so
visually unappealing and janky and laggy. Hm. Must be that devs aren't
using the brand new FooBarBlasterFlow library!
Completely rework the way Auxio handles icons.
This is mostly two changes:
1. Removing ImageButton/StyledImageButton for MaterialButton. This is
done by abusing MaterialButton's theming options to make it only show
an icon.
2. Standardizing icon sizes into small, medium, and large categories.
Small is the default, Medium and Large are for edge-cases like the
playback icons which look horrible at 24dp.
3. Abusing the Toolbar to make it follow Material 3 guidelines. This
mostly involved removing the strange icon sizing and correctly padding
the view.
4. Reworking the playback bar to use more, smaller icons, making it
more like a Toolbar in the process (which I like).
Make the home toolbar collapse on scroll.
I was planning to implement this back in 2.0.0, but visual bugs stopped
me. Now, knowing how much space the the Toolbar + Tab combination takes
up on smaller devices, I think it would be better to have this in
general.
Add a toggle for edge-to-edge mode.
Normally we would want to enable edge-to-edge by default (in fact, we
still do). However, some phones (once again, samsung) don't provide
Auxio with actual window insets. As a result, we need to add a toggle
so that it can be disabled on busted devices.
Did you know that even when Auxio has it's edge-to-edge functionality
busted, Samsung Music works just fine? Very interesting.
Resolves#149.
Add support for excluding directories on other volumes, at least from
Android Q onwards.
Previously, Auxio only supported excluding the primary volume. This was
mostly out of laziness, as the excluded directory implementation was
shamelessly copied from Phonograph. This commit completely refactors
the excluded directory system, dumpstering the old database (which was
overkill anyway) for a new system based on SharedPreferences that is
actually capable of handling external volumes.
Now, limitations regarding external volumes still apply below Android
Q, as the VOLUME_NAME field does not exist on those versions. However,
this should resolve at least one major complaint regarding the
excluded directory system. Now theres just all of the other complaints.
Resolves#134.
Add a dedicated service towards the loading of the music library.
This new service was created for two reasons:
1. Music loading is slow and resource-intensive, so putting it on the
ViewModel layer just didn't seem right and made it vulnerable to the
OS simply stopping the loading process.
2. For automatic rescanning [#72], there must be something watching
the music library and waiting for a change in the background. This
would require a service as that is probably the least insane way to
do that kind of background work.
I have no garuntees how viable the service might be. If anything, it
might be halted by some insane android restriction or issue that
makes it more or less impossible to use for most apps, and I will have
to largely drop truly automatic rescanning.
Add an indicator to gague the current music loading progress.
This is actually a lot harder to implement than it might seem, not only
due to UI state issues, but also due to the fact that MusicStore needs
to keep it's state sane across a myriad of possible events that could
occur while loading music. This system seems like a good stopgap until
a full service-backed implementation can be created.
Move the loading screen into the home view.
Previously, we would use a Snackbar to track the music loading state.
This ended up being a pretty stupid and buggy idea, and would get even
worse with the new music loader changes. Instead, we re-implement the
loading screen into the home view to generally be more sane and
extendable compared to previously.
Move out the MediaStoreCompat interface into a full interface called
Backend.
In preparation for direct metadata parsing, it would be useful to
create some kind of object system to properly handle the capabilities
of each metadata indexing mode. Backend fulfills that by allowing
each object to implement their own query and then loading routine.
This system is designed somewhat strangely. This is firstly because
the ExoPlayer metadata backend will have to plug in to the original
MediaStore backend, so making methods more granular allows the
ExoPlayer backend to avoid some of the stupid inefficiencies from
the actual MediaStore backend, such as the genre loading process.
We also want to separate the steps of loading music in order to
more adequately show the current loading process to the user in
a future change.
Implement a safe slider wrapper that does not crash with invalid values
as often.
Slider is a terrible component that is not designed with Auxio's
use-case in the slightest. Instead of gracefully degrading with invalid
values, it just crashes the entire app, which is horrible for UX.
Since SeekBar is a useless buggy version-specific sh******ed mess too,
we have no choice but to wrap Slider in a safe view layout that
hopefully hacks with the input enough to not crash the app when doing
simple seeking actions.
I hate android so much.
Resolves#140.
Re-add accent customization on Android 12 and above.
Previously, I disabled accent customization since I thought they were
more or less useless with the new Material You dynamic colors system.
Turns out I severely underestimated how horribly OEMs would botch the
dynamic colors system. Guess I was blinded by my adherence to the pixel
line. Re-add the accent customization for those who do not have a good
dynamic color palette at all.
Resolves#131.
Rework the tiny widget to cram even more information into it.
The tiny widget is nominally meant for edge cases like exceptionally
small screens or landscape mode, but apparently it's triggered on some
devices in normal use because of platform fragmentation and OEM insanity.
Update the tiny widget layout with some new buttons in order to make it
more usable in mnormal use. This is still nowehre near ideal. For
example, when triggering the layout on my device, it ends up squishing
the buttons. But it should probably work better outside of those edge
cases.
Hack around more insane lollipop bugs, such as:
- The angular auxio icon crashing the system UI
- Optimized icons being corrupted
- Setting image alpha not working properly
I really wish I could drop support for this horrible version, but I
either have to wait for a major library to drop support or for the
usage numbers to reach 1%.
Remove references to android system strings, in favor of in-house
translations.
Previously Auxio would use the `android.R.string.ok` and
`android.R.string.cancel` strings to represent Ok and Cancel
respectively, but these system strings are actually untranslated on
some devices, so it is better for i18n if we use our own strings
for such.
Implement a UI frontend for customizing the ReplayGain pre-amp value.
This finally completes Auxio's ReplayGain implementation. Not only
that, it also shows how Auxio can use positive ReplayGain values,
unlike other apps.
As a side-note, this also fiddles with the dialog style somewhat.
I got carried away.
Resolves#114.
Add sorting modes for duration and song count.
This was requested previously in the now-closed UI/UX changes
megathread, however I have only gotten to it now.
Finalize the disc number implementation within Auxio.
This is probably one of the most widely-requested features outside
of playlisting. This implementation also adds some more fine grained
sorting modes for disc numbers in particular, which actually removes
some of the quirkiness of the Sort class.
Resolves#96.
Do some miscellanious formatting reworks.
1. Remove all instances of m in favor of _. _ is only used when names
collide or if something should be internal.
2. Make fragments apply their own click listeners.
3. Remove instances of inc/dec and replace them with the more
straightfoward + 1 or - 1.
Split off the "songs loaded" about item into it's own card called
"library statistics"
This card includes the song, album, artist, and genre counts,
alongside a total duration of the music library. This is just more
informative and useful to the user.
Resolves#121.
Rename LoopMode to RepeatMode, which is generally much clearer
than the previous name.
This changes all non-breaking instances of "loop" in the app with
"repeat".
Rework the style of all album covers in the app to be more in line with
the new track number style.
This is mostly comprised of adding a new background to all cover views
and rescaling error icons to be smaller than they would normally be.
This also includes a change in the cover/track background color from
colorSurfaceVariant to colorOnSurfaceInverse, which seems to provide
the best visibility in all cases.
These changes also apply to the track number views.
Update the album song layout to be more alike to other songs.
Recently I migrated the TextView in the album songs to use 48dp sizing,
like the other song views. However, this resulted in a lot of empty
space that felt off. Fix this by adding a light background to the track
number, which fills the room it takes up a bit more. It also hopefully
primes the track number to take an indicator once multi-select is
added.
Rework audio focus to rely on the native ExoPlayer implementation
instead of a custom implementation.
Previously, we avoided ExoPlayer's AudioFocus system as it never
played after a transient lost. A few versions later now through,
now it does, so we may as well switch to it. This does introduce
a bug where ReplayGain functionality will conflict with audio
focus, but I hope to eliminate this with #115 as I switch to
an AudioProcessor instead of a callback.
Audit null safety to remove extraneous and stupid calls while
optimizing certain checks here and there.
This commit is primarily centered around the introduction of a new
utility: unlikelyToBeNull. This call uses requireNotNull on debug
builds and !! on release builds, which allows for bug catching in
an easier manner on normal builds while also allowing for
optimizations on the release builds.
Completely rework the base adapter class to require less boilerplate
and properly handle cases such as diffing. The major adapters have
been migrated to this system, but the other adapters have not been
changed so far.
This is only part 1 of a multi-part rework, as this is an incredibly
complex system.
Remove databinding entirely.
Databinding was a terrible idea for Auxio. I rarely leveraged it, and
when I did, it produced messy code and bloated build times. Dumpster it
for just viewbinding, which is good. This reduces building times by
nearly 2/3, and generally makes the codebase more coherent and usable.
Move all fragment instances to the new ViewBindingFragment paradigm,
which should help immensely with reducing memory leaks from list
bindings and to really alleviate the overloaded onCreate functions.
Rework the playback views to follow the new idioms I want to use for
Auxio.
This change mostly consists of flattening away some of the custom
views, removing databinding, and using a general viewbinding
fragment that I hope to extend to the entire app.
Rework the playback slide up implementation to be more straightfoward.
This is really composed of stylistic improvements, very little in
actual behavior changes. This does re-introduce a regression when
nothing is playing where the scroll position will become off when
rotating, but that desynchronization happens often so unless I were
to completely migrate both the panel and the bar to a view, I don't
really see it as an issue.
Migrate to a centralized constant table for easier management.
Previously, Auxio would tie constants to the class itself, which
led to a largely disjointed system that relied on an internal table
so that it would stay sane. This commit moves all of those constants
to a single table for easier usage and management.
Completely refactor the Sort class to be more efficient and
straightforward.
The original Sort class had *major* shortcomings, it was slow,
poorly organized, and relied on abusing compareBy to implement
special things like article sort. This rework eliminates all of
that in favor of a new system relying on custom comparators and
chaining to achieve something much faster and maintainable.
Turn the headset focus setting into the headset autoplay setting.
The way auxio handles headsets is...odd. Sometimes the MediaSession
handles it and Auxio could not care less, and sometimes Auxio actually
needs to handle it. As a result, the idea of being able to disable
headset focus is more or less moot because it will only apply to some
devices and not others.
On the other end, the way Auxio automatically begins playback once a
headset is plugged in is also quite weird. It only works on wired
headsets, and when it does, it overrides all other apps that might
also be playing audio. It's not to say that it's a bad feature, but
it's also one that I don't want to make the defualt. Auxio should
still play along within the confines of Android's expectations, after
all.
Replacing the existing "Headset focus" setting with a new "Headset
autoplay" setting solves both of these issues, as it prevents a
mis-guided disabling of the setting that doesn't actually disable
the feature and it relegates the quirky autoplay behavior to an

Revert the removal of the song/artist values from list items for now.
The current plan of removing extraneous values from songs and albums
only works if I add multi-select and a dedicated menu button, but that
is still in the air, and in general I want feedback before I go ahead.
Aside from reverting the previous changes, this actually standardizes
all item descriptions under a single bullet point formatting system,
instead of the mix of commas and bullet points that existed beforehand.
Remove the album name from the main song item in favor of a duration
value.
Auxio has traditionally used "Artist . Album" for song items. However,
this had some shortcomings:
1. The way the artist and album names are packed probably results in
truncation on small screens, which I doubt is very helpful.
2. All other items in Auxio have only one specific "subject" per line,
which makes the song items a bit of an outlier since it has two (the
artist and the album)
3. The empty space available could be used for another UI element,
such as a duration or maybe a menu button in the future.
For consistency, this also removes the song count from all album items
as well.
