v1.4.4

BlinkStream 1.4.4 — Interface, discovery and multistream update

Date: 2026-10-13. Published incremental compatible update; signed cross-platform CI passed.

Category discovery and visual polish

• Search games/categories beyond the popular list, load more results and filter live streams by language.
• Cancel obsolete requests on query, category, language or account changes; deduplicate paginated results.
• Keep HTTP/auth/rate-limit/timeout errors distinct from an empty list and offer explicit retry.
• Modernized cards, sharper stream thumbnails, readable full-name language badges and clearer controls.

Multistream and unified chat

• Center loading/error messages in the video area; wrap long errors and adapt controls to each cell's width.
• Ignore late channel/quality responses and release HLS resources on replacement/unmount.
• Restrict audio/chat selection to visible cells; preserve zero volume and coherent binaural mute behavior.
• Apply left/right chat placement in matching DOM order; allow re-opening hidden chat from a cell.
• Optional Individual/Unified native chat mode for 2/3/4-cell grids; one subscription per unique visible channel.
• Source-colored labels, arrival-ordered messages and channel-scoped emotes, badges, anti-spam, dedupe and deletions.
• Explicit single-recipient sending requires a joined destination; drafts never transfer to another channel.
• Official embedded chat, moderation and Companion chat sends remain in Individual; /me targets one selected room.

Settings and keyboard polish

• Safe initial focus, Tab containment and focus restoration in Settings and confirmation dialogs.
• Arrow-key navigation between Settings tabs, named switches/controls and a keyboard-operable Home logo.
• Shared validated volume reader preserves 0%, clamps invalid ranges and retains grid's separate default.

Validation and delivery limits

• The user accepted category/grid/UI changes and authorized the incremental 1.4.4 publication workflow.
• 623 frontend tests pass, one skipped; lint, legacy checks and Windows local build pass.
• 56 Rust Windows tests, format checks and 19 release/signature/documentation tests pass locally.
• Socket-simulated tests cover chat routing, destination changes, assets and deletions; responsive checks cover narrow grids.
• Live Twitch authentication/sending, independent audio/keyboard acceptance and other desktop platforms are not certified by mocks.
• Candidate CI 38449215321 and tag CI 38451126905 passed quality, signed builds for Windows/both macOS architectures/Linux, NSIS smoke and manifest verification.
• All four downloaded public updater artifacts independently pass signature, trusted-comment and SHA-256 verification; the public manifest matches master after Git line-ending normalization.
• Signing trust, cloud schema and shared Twitch cookies are unchanged; no Supabase deployment or automatic PC installation.
• Historical updater-key migration, authenticated upgrades and independent Drops auto-claim retain their previous limits.
• Every hotfix/update keeps README, release notes, repository roadmap and website current; release tests enforce version markers.

updater verification and roadmap.

v1.4.3

BlinkStream 1.4.3 — Session and branding hotfix

Date: 2026-10-08.

Session cleanup and follows

• Logout immediately hides account data, clears recent history/session caches, closes
  playback and returns to the guest welcome without deleting preferences or shared Twitch cookies.
• Manual pinned favorites are isolated by account; Twitch follows are refreshed separately
  every 60 seconds while visible and on focus, reconnection or return to the app.
• Unfollows replace the old snapshot; failed requests preserve the last valid list and report errors.
• Pagination supports more than 500 follows; cancellation and timeouts reject partial/stale results.
• Pending authentication and native token writes cannot restore an account after logout.
• The legacy mixed list is backed up; unowned data is not assigned to another account.
  A legacy follow removed before migration cannot always be distinguished from a manual pin.

Approved branding and small polish

• New user-approved B/lightning logo across the interface, desktop icons, favicon and website.
• Classic centered guest welcome retained, without extra panels or login buttons.
• Name colors match the header: white Blink and violet-to-fuchsia Stream.
• Removed unused hero image, Vite asset and social sprite.
• Documented a reusable stable PATCH hotfix process: 1.4.2 → 1.4.3, not a prerelease suffix.

Validation and limits

• Windows logout, the classic welcome/logo and live Twitch follow/unfollow refresh were accepted by the user.
• 542 frontend tests pass, one skipped; lint and frontend build pass locally.
• 11 release/signature tests and 56 Rust Windows tests pass; fmt and Clippy pass.
• Automated regressions also cover follow/unfollow refresh, account changes and stale responses.
• Cross-platform signed builds, installer smoke and updater signatures are publication gates in CI.
• Signing trust remains unchanged. This hotfix does not deploy Supabase or change database schemas.
• Historical trust migration, authenticated GUI upgrades and automatic Drops claim validation
  retain the limits documented for 1.4.2. Nothing is installed automatically on the user's PC.

See hotfix policy,
updater verification and roadmap.

v1.4.2

BlinkStream 1.4.2 — Twitch reliability and integrated Drops

Date: 2026-10-07.

Drops in one window

• Native progress and official Twitch inventory share the Drops panel without a separate claim window.
  Twitch integrity checks and game-account linkage requirements remain in the official flow.
• Session-scoped mounting, timeouts, resize and close cleanup protect reopened panels from stale views.
  Native visibility is reconciled after mounting and when another dialog changes visibility.
• Unconfirmed claims persistently pause Auto-Claim rather than repeatedly opening the inventory.
  Authoritative inventory reads reconcile successful claims and clear stale close errors.
• Experimental opt-in watch reporting measures actual native playback and pauses on stopped playback
  or hidden app. DNS filtering errors remain explicit; no bypass or extra official player is added.
• Only Twitch-confirmed inventory counts as progress/claim success; an accepted report is not proof of credit.

Twitch events and UI reliability

• EventSub replaces retired PubSub for authorized custom redemption events, with explicit permission
  and connection states, deduplication, reconnection and cleanup.
• Channel search ignores stale responses and remains dismissed after Escape, selection or outside clicks.
• Player shortcuts respect interactive controls and visible modals. Drops restores focus, cycles Tab
  through visible React controls, consumes Escape and highlights the active pane.
• Remote Twitch views do not inherit application IPC capabilities; authentication stays native.
• Update publication now verifies all four real artifacts against the configured Minisign key,
  including trusted comments, and rejects incomplete releases before publishing assets/manifests.
• Patched rustls, Vitest/mocker, source-map-js, brace-expansion and nanoid. npm audit is clean.
  GTK3 uses an exact upstream GLib security backport with a reproducible integrity check;
  Dependabot may still flag the old version label. See ADR-014 for scope and removal criteria.

Validation and known limits

• The Windows user accepted the integrated Drops panel and subsequent polish.
• 514 frontend tests pass, one skipped; lint and 11 release/security tests pass. Backend: 56 Rust tests,
  fmt/Clippy and local Windows build pass. Linux CI: 57 unit tests and two GLib regressions,
  also executed with release optimizations; 44 Edge Function tests pass.
• Signed updater artifacts pass cryptographic verification for Windows x64, macOS Intel,
  macOS Apple Silicon and Linux x64. The Linux AppImage/deb and both macOS bundles build successfully.
• A disposable Windows runner verified the NSIS signature, installed 1.4.2, reinstalled with
  Tauri's passive updater flags and confirmed the installed process restarted.
• An authorized EventSub redemption, separate automatic-click confirmation, and isolated
  native-watch pause/session tests remain outstanding.
• The current signing secret matches the unchanged configured public key; all new updater
  artifacts verify against it. Historical artifacts used another signer. Clients trusting an
  unavailable older key need a verified manual transition, not disabled signature verification.
• The installer smoke test is not a historical 1.4.1 migration or complete GUI upgrade test.
  Authenticated settings/session persistence and upgrades during active recording remain unverified.
• Updater signatures do not replace Authenticode or macOS notarization; OS trust warnings may appear.

Details: updater verification, roadmap
and Drops watch test.

🔧 v1.3.7 Hotfix & Engine Fixes

• Hls.js LoadStats Structure Fix (Black Screen Resolution): Resolved an unhandled internal exception (TypeError: Cannot set properties of undefined (setting 'start')) in Hls.js's manifest parser. The custom TauriPlaylistLoader now properly mutates and passes the official this.stats (LoadStats) instance with all loading, parsing, and bwEstimate attributes, allowing segment downloads to schedule and play seamlessly.
• Enhanced Content Security Policy (CSP): Upgraded connect-src, media-src, and img-src directives to support https: transport, enabling seamless loading from Twitch's dynamic multi-level CDN subdomains (e.g., *.hls.ttvnw.net, *.cloudfront.hls.ttvnw.net, and *.akamaized.net).
• Autoplay Resilience & Muted Fallback: Implemented automatic muted playback fallback if host OS or browser policies restrict unmuted autoplay, ensuring immediate stream startup without stalling.
