Remove the about screen's reliance on the home data.
The home view's data can no longer be trusted now due to the "hide
collaborators" setting, so now the about screen uses statistics
derived from MusicStore itself. This also avoids constantly
resumming the duration when the UI is initially created.
Backport the code for full "Month + Year" dates to older versions with
the legacy Date API.
For the same of not missing bugs on newer devices, this is now what
will be used in Auxio.
Rework the music picker system to be a reactive, viewmodel-based system
instead of a janky UI system.
This should make it much easier to maintain and extend in the future.
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.
Try to move multi-artist playback/navigation into a single function.
This function is really bad and is tacked onto the most convienent
location without much thought. I really wish to move this into the
ViewModel flow eventually, but I have no idea how to architecture
that. Oh well.
Show a list of artists that contain songs from a particular genre in
the genre UI.
This used to be in really early Auxio versions, but was intertwined
with some really stupid genre functionality that would include songs
from an entire artist for some reason. Since now albums can be shown
in several artist entires, it makes no sense now what artists can't
be given the same treatment.
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 caching of already-parsed tag data.
This greatly reduces loading times when the music library has not
changed. This completes the music loader in it's entirety now.
Resolves#207.
Re-add parsing by escaped separators.
Previously I removed it becaue the regex parsing was not being
cooperative. Turns out we really do have to write our own parser
code. Fun.
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.
Use plural variants of vorbis artist/album artist tags.
Some people add these tags to signal the artist makeup of a song
when a player supports multiple artists while still allowing less
sophisticated players to operate with single-artist tags.
Add support for MusicBrainz IDs (MBIDs) in both grouping and UID
creation.
This should help with very large libraries where artist names
collide, thus requiring differentiation through other means. It also
theoretically opens the door to fetch online metadata, however I don't
really care for that and it would violate the non-connectivity promise
of Auxio.
Resolves#202.
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.
Combine validation into a new finalization routine that now
individually validates and in the future may finalize certain
fields that require linking to be properly created.
Keep changes when unshuffling and reshuffling the queue.
This quirk was a hold-over from the old queue system, and now it's
removed.
Note that sorting is still based on parent, and so sort orders might
remain somewhat wonky. I only see myself really tackling that come
gapless playback, as I have to remove that last vestige to get that
system working.
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.
Make UID structure dependent on the music mode.
This involves replacing the "tag" value with more structured fields and
appending the int code of the music mode to the UUID rather than making
it part of the UID's "tag". UIDs aren't quite a UUID, so this is
allowed.
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.
Also take the size of the music file into account when it is being
played.
This way, we could remove some situations where two files with the
same name get confused with eachother when opened.
Use CollationKey when sorting music instead of String isntances.
This makes sorting aware of accented characters while still preserving
speed. I would ideally want to extend this to the search view too, but
there is no contains command in CollationKey, so I must continue with
the normalization method there.
Instead of updating the notif every 50 songs, update it every 1.5s.
This is in preparation for automatic reloading, which will once again
make Indexed song updates EXTREMELY fast and would thus rate-limit the
notification if the previous system was used.
Phase out the dumb hack TaskGuard class in favor of yield.
For some reason, I was under the impression that yield was horribly
slow. It's not, I was just using it wrong. So now TaskGuard is no
longer needed.
Re-add MediaStore genre parsing to the init() step.
This time, to play along with the new abstraction, the query is done in
initialization and loaded into a map that is then used when populating
raw audio.
