v2.4.0 - 2026-07-21

✨ New Features

  • Long-form & live stream support: the player now auto-detects long-form and live tracks and falls back from the waveform to a standard seekable bar, so multi-hour files no longer stall the Web Audio decode and endless streams no longer leak Infinity:NaN into the UI. Fallback triggers on a live stream, a duration over 30 minutes, or a file over 50 MB (probed via a HEAD request). Four optional, non-breaking AudioData fields tune it: isLive (skip decode, disable seeking, hide the duration), duration (early length hint / force the bar), peaks (server-precomputed samples that render the real waveform with no client decode), and preload. Existing playlists are unaffected; getTime shows --:-- for non-finite input and H:MM:SS for hour-plus tracks.
  • Hover time tooltip: hovering or dragging either progress type (bar or waveform) shows a floating time label at the pointer position. Hidden for live streams (where seeking is disabled) and until metadata loads; decorative only for assistive tech (aria-valuetext already announces the position). The tooltip auto-flips above or below the progress bar based on the player's position in the viewport, so it stays visible when the player is placed at the top.
  • Tooltip color token: new --rm-audio-player-tooltip-background CSS variable to theme the hover tooltip surface independently (defaults: #f2f2f2 light / #2c2c2c dark).
  • Tooltip placement override: pin the hover tooltip above or below the bar with placement.timeTooltip ("top" | "bottom"); when unset it keeps the automatic viewport-based detection.

🔄 Changed

  • Time display & tooltip fonts are now overridable: dropped the !important flags on the track-time font/size so consumers can restyle the time display and hover tooltip via CSS. Both still default to monospace for stable digit width — override .rmap-track-time-container / .rmap-progress-tooltip to change it.
