1908-1908: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick winBind a recovery mount to the active transition.
If the successor fails before its first frame, this replan creates a replacement mount token but does not update
nextUpTransitionGate. The gate retains the failed mount token. The replacement first-frame callback then cannot complete the handoff, so the outgoing Up Next state remains active.Proposed fix

- Line 941: Update the first-frame callback flow around PlayerScreen and
PlayerViewModel.onFirstVideoFrameRendered to carry the rendered media item’s
identity or generation with the event, rather than reading the mutable
mountedMediaGeneration when the callback executes. Only complete
NextUpTransitionGate when that identity matches the media item currently
awaiting first-frame completion, and add a regression test covering a queued
callback arriving after the mounted generation changes.

- Around line 1495-1501: The onRenderedFirstFrame callback in the
MediaController listener must use the mount token captured when that listener is
registered or the player is mounted, rather than reading mutable
mountedTransportNonce at dispatch time. Pass that captured token to
ViewModel.onFirstVideoFrameRendered while preserving stall-detector
notifications, and add a regression test covering a queued predecessor callback
during a Next Up handoff to ensure it cannot resolve the successor before its
own first frame.

- Around line 4151-4163: Reset autoTextSubtitleSelectionAttempted to false

block, so resolveAutoPreferredTextSubtitle can run for the new episode.
- Around line 2373-2375: Require a transport mount nonce in
onUnsupportedPlayback and update every caller, including the base-layer mismatch
collector and startup-stall detector in TvPlayerScreen, to pass
mountedTransportNonce. Preserve successor-transition failure handling after
Ready publication so valid startup-stall signals are not filtered out by a
missing nonce.

CodeRabbit outside-diff recovery-mount finding: valid and fixed in 7197e1a. When phone playback recovery creates a replacement media generation, I now assign that token to the active Next Up transition gate before publishing the remount. The replacement stream can therefore complete the handoff on its own first frame, while callbacks from the failed mount remain stale. The same replacement-mount binding is applied centrally on TV. The exact commit passed Unit tests (5m11s) and Lint (11m01s): https://github.com/Silo-Server/silo-android/actions/runs/33829401143 |
Problem
Android phone and TV can cut to a black player surface while Next Up hands playback from one episode to the next. The outgoing item is torn down or hidden before the successor has rendered its first frame, so the transition exposes Media3's empty surface even though playback starts normally afterward.
On phone, the loading branch replaces the mounted
PlayerView. On TV, Next Up navigates to a new player route, which disposes the current player screen and surface. Both paths also dismiss the outgoing Up Next card before there is a rendered successor frame to replace it.This is the Android-side equivalent of the presentation problem addressed in silo-apple#227. This PR changes only
silo-android; it does not change Apple or the server contract.Related issue: N/A — narrow playback fix.
What I changed
PlayerViewmounted while the successor loads and enable Media3's retained-content behavior so the outgoing frame covers the item reset.NextUpTransitionGatethat owns one handoff and records the successor's exact mount generation/nonce. Only the first frame from that mount can finish the transition; stale first-frame, preflight, decoder-error, and duplicate Next Up callbacks cannot finish or disrupt it.AnalyticsListener.EventTime. A queued predecessor callback can no longer be mistaken for the successor after the live UI state changes.User-visible result
During Android Next Up, the outgoing frame and card remain in place while the next episode prepares. They disappear only when the new episode has rendered a frame. Normal buffering, retry, track selection, pass-out protection, Back behavior, and room-owned playback remain on their existing paths.
Regression coverage
NextUpTransitionGateTestproves that an outgoing or superseded mount cannot complete the handoff, including a queued predecessor frame arriving after a successor recovery remount, and that duplicate actions remain blocked until completion or cancellation.TvPlayNextSelectionHandoffTestproves that an in-place replacement invalidates the old lease and exposes the successor's new source/subtitle handoff.RoomSessionTestcoverage forshouldNavigateToLocalNextremains on the TV room-ownership path.Validation

Benchmarks
Not applicable. This is a playback state and presentation-correctness change, not a throughput or latency optimization, and I did not run performance benchmarks.
AI Disclosure
main, including stale callbacks, duplicate actions, outgoing-session finalization, cross-episode selection handoff, errors, and room ownership. That review found the TV in-place path had displaced the old screen-level Watch Together guard, which I moved into the view model ine3b4117e. CodeRabbit then found event/mount correlation, recovery-remount, required TV nonce, and per-episode subtitle-latch gaps. I fixed those in7197e1a9, replied to every finding, resolved every review thread, and reran the full unit and lint workflow successfully on the final commit.
