v0.9.2 - Typography Overhaul, Logo Alignment, Auto-Gemini & Baseline Sync

What's New in v0.9.2

🎬 Movie & Franchise Collection Posters

• Multi-Library Switching & Scanning: Full indexing and management of both Plex TV Shows and Movies libraries.
• MediUX & TMDb Integration:
  • Browse available artwork sets from MediUX and TMDb with 1-click apply to Plex.
  • Smart isolation of standalone movie artwork in Movie view (filtering out entire boxset collections).
  • Surface active / applied MediUX sets to the top of the list when reopening studio modals.
• Franchise Collection Studio:
  • 1-to-1 bipartite smart title/subtitle/year matching ensuring boxset sequels are correctly assigned dedicated artwork without collision.
  • High-res poster lightbox preview modal for inspecting set artwork.
• Custom Movie Poster Upload:
  • Drag & Drop / File Browser: Upload custom movie posters directly from local disk (JPG, PNG, WEBP) with automatic Pillow conversion and 95% JPEG quality.
  • Canvas Drag & Drop and external URL pasting.

🤖 Gemini AI Style Assistant

• Automated Styling for New Shows: Automatically queries Google Gemini to design and save a show-specific typography and color palette when newly added shows have title cards generated via background or real-time sync, ensuring all episodes share a consistent style before uploads begin.
• Show-Level Consistency: Once generated, the custom style is preserved so future episodes immediately reuse the same aesthetic without extra API calls.

🎨 Typography & Layout Refinements

• Show Logo Safe-Area Alignment: Watermark logos now align to the exact safe margins (margin_side = 110, margin_top = 100, margin_bottom = 120) used by the rest of the card typography.
• Transparent Bounding Box Trimming: Automatically crops transparent border padding around logos before placement, guaranteeing flush alignment with text bounds on both left and right edges.
• Typographic Baseline Synchronization: Subtitles detached at the bottom right now match the exact typographic baseline of bottom-left titles across single-line and multi-line titles.
• Clean Typography (Badge/Pill Removal): Replaced container shapes with pure, clean text typography featuring customizable tracking, casing, and dropshadow/glow effects.
• 10-Foot Distance Readability: Elevated Gemini styler defaults and ranges for distant TV viewing (Title: 124px / 110–150px; Subheading: 62px / 52–74px).

📱 Mobile & Performance Enhancements

• Responsive Mobile Layout: Fixed horizontal header overflow on mobile screens with a dedicated full-width search row.
• Chunked Infinite Scrolling & Lazy Loading: IntersectionObserver-based lazy loading and windowed rendering prevent network spikes and heavy DOM overhead.
• Plex Connection Resilience: Configured connection and read timeouts with graceful fallbacks.
• Docker Always Restart: Container restart policy updated to restart: always.

v0.9.2-pre - Typography Overhaul, Logo Alignment & Baseline Sync

What's New in v0.9.2-pre

🎨 Typography & Layout Refinements

• Show Logo Safe-Area Alignment: Standardized watermark logo margins to match title card text margins (margin_side = 110, margin_top = 100, margin_bottom = 120).
• Logo Transparent Bounding Box Trimming: Automatically crops transparent border padding around show logos (logo_img.crop(logo_img.getbbox())) so artwork edges sit flush with text on both left and right alignment.
• Typographic Baseline Synchronization: When subtitles are detached at the bottom right and the title is at the bottom left, both now share the exact same typographic baseline regardless of title font size or line count.
• Clean Typography (Badge/Pill Removal): Simplified subtitle presentation to pure, elegant text with tracking, casing, and dropshadow/glow options, eliminating clumsy container shapes.
• 10-Foot Distance Readability: Increased Gemini AI styler default font sizes (Title: 124px / 110–150px; Subheading: 62px / 52–74px) for clear legibility on large TV screens.

🛠️ Developer & Build Improvements
