NipaPlay 1.11.5 Bug Fixes • Fixed an issue on iOS where a custom player User-Agent entered in Network Settings would not be saved or take effect after closing the input panel. • Fixed a bug where the detail window for an Emby TV series episode remained visible on screen after playback began, instead of closing at the correct time. • Fixed a conflict between the Erika playback engine and the JavaScript danmaku (comment overlay) engine. When both are active, danmaku now correctly routes through Erika's built-in channel. This update also resolves stuttering and dropped frames during portrait-mode playback on mobile, scales danmaku text proportionally to the screen, and adds per-series comment caching to reduce redundant network requests. New Features and Improvements • Playlist preloading: after a video starts, the app now asynchronously preloads the playlist in the background, laying the groundwork for seamless auto-play of the next episode. • Backup and restore settings are now available on mobile.

What's New in NipaPlay v1.11.4 Emby episode pages now let you browse available media versions showing file size, bitrate, audio, and subtitle details. Choose your preferred version, audio track, and subtitle track independently, with preference inheritance at the episode, series, and global levels. WebDAV data sync brings a Git-style backup and restore system for your app data, including watch history. You can still export and import data manually as before. The plugin system now supports loading external JavaScript danmaku engines via a new plugin API. The Erika playback engine has been updated to v0.1.6, adding the ArtCNN C4F16 DS upscaling option in video quality settings. External player support has been redesigned with a unified session architecture. Linux users can now use VLC and Windows users can use PotPlayer, alongside existing mpv and mpv.net support. PotPlayer and mpv also support danmaku control from the danmaku console. Auto-play next episode is now tied to the playlist rather than directory scanning, so it works correctly across all media server types. When you finish the last episode of a series while logged in to Bangumi, a prompt with a review button appears. The countdown overlay moves out of the way when player controls are visible and returns when they hide. Large-screen mode now supports gamepad navigation with interactive sound effects and several interaction improvements. Fixes include smoother danmaku behavior when holding or releasing the speed button, correct danmaku positioning after seeking, and reduced idle power use. Android TV can now freely choose between MDK, Video Player, libmpv, and Erika, and can exit large-screen mode from the sidebar. WebDAV and SMB paths in library history are now resolved to real playback URLs before being passed to an external player. Fixed abnormally low volume with the libmpv engine on Windows. Fixed duplicate danmaku tracks caused by a race condition during subtitle track loading. Fixed the JS danmaku engine failing to reload after a new comment was submitted. Text input fields in danmaku matching windows now correctly support system text menus and text selection.

NipaPlay is now available on two new platforms and includes a wide range of improvements and fixes across all supported platforms. New Platforms • HarmonyOS is now officially supported. NipaPlay runs on HarmonyOS devices with hardware video decoding, Surface rendering, and OHAudio output. Local settings, SQLite, file and photo pickers, screen brightness, volume control, and wake lock are all integrated. JavaScript plugins and torrent functionality are supported as well. • Apple TV (tvOS) is now officially supported. The full app experience — media library, anime browsing, account, settings, plugins, search, and playback — has been adapted for the TV remote and large-screen navigation. You can enter text by scanning a QR code from a phone or browser. Playback uses the Erika engine with a dark theme by default. New Features and Improvements • A trending rankings section has been added to the home screen, with three sorting options: overall hot, rising, and new-season hot. The rankings include automatic retry and caching so occasional network errors have less impact. On mobile, the full list appears in a pull-up sheet; on desktop, it opens in a separate window with a frosted-glass effect. • The desktop rankings window has been redesigned with a sort dropdown, highlighted top-three entries, and a poster grid layout. Spacing, card text, and accent colors have been refined. Tablet users will no longer see desktop-only entries such as external call shortcuts, keyboard shortcut settings, and the open-log-path option. • WebDAV and SMB remote media paths now use a new Base URL format, fixing an issue where changing server settings caused all media matches to stop working. The plugin system API has been extended to allow launching external executables. • Danmaku (comment overlay) rendering has been improved: emoji font metrics are fixed so emoji and plain text no longer collide incorrectly; sending a danmaku comment no longer reloads the full list or drops emoji; your own comments are now highlighted with a green outline; and spacing for certain monospace narrow characters has been corrected. Bug Fixes • Fixed crashes, corrupted frames, flickering, and a blue-screen issue with libmpv on Linux systems using NVIDIA GPUs. Danmaku rendering avoids the Next2 engine on Linux/NVIDIA to prevent driver-level crashes. CUDA/NVDEC is now preferred over VAAPI/VDPAU when an NVIDIA GPU is actively rendering. • Fixed an issue in the Erika player where resuming playback could start before a seek completed, leaving the video frame blank until the user manually scrubbed. Danmaku shadow style changes now sync to Erika in real time. The video background in windowed mode no longer turns solid black. • Fixed a leftover Erika native overlay that remained on screen after exiting the player, causing the home screen to appear broken. Overlay state is now correctly managed during full-screen transitions and playback resume. • Fixed WebDAV and SMB playlists and auto-play-next failing after the Base URL format change introduced in a previous update. • Fixed an issue on Windows where certain dialogs appeared to freeze the app after a Flutter update caused them to be promoted to hidden native windows. Media library sort, Emby/Jellyfin sort, and manual match dialogs now stay within the main Flutter view. Emby/Jellyfin sort highlighting, checkmarks, focus, and auto-scroll position have been restored. • Fixed the iOS file picker failing when using the backup feature. • Fixed a timing issue on Windows with the libmpv engine that caused audio volume to be lower than expected. • Added in-process caching for WebDAV and SMB media library management to improve loading speed. • Fixed the iOS system file picker failing when triggered from the player. • Fixed clearing match information causing playback history to be lost.

What's New in NipaPlay Danmaku Console Upgrades The danmaku console now supports real-time font size adjustment (12–60 px), time offset fine-tuning in 0.5-second steps or by custom entry, and one-tap offset reset. The danmaku list displays each comment's time, type, color, sender ID, and block status, and auto-scrolls with playback. You can add block rules by keyword, regular expression, or sender ID. Multi-Window and Picture-in-Picture Playback Detach the player into a separate window without reloading, with borderless mode, locked aspect ratio, and always-on-top support. Picture-in-Picture position is now configurable with a one-tap shortcut, and new keyboard shortcuts let you switch between detached and PiP modes. The danmaku console and danmaku list can each open in their own window. macOS and Windows External Player Support The danmaku console on macOS adds support for mpv.app and the mpv JSON IPC protocol, a compact two-column layout, and an option to shrink the NipaPlay window during external playback. The external-player danmaku console is now available on Windows as well. Emby Improvements Emby now supports sorting by date last content added and lets you choose from multiple media sources on episode detail pages and in the player, with audio tracks and subtitles following the selected source. Other New Features Library sections can now be dragged to reorder and are saved automatically. A unified, customizable User-Agent now applies across player requests, Emby/Jellyfin API calls, image loading, and playback sync. Windows gains a new HTTP proxy option covering both Dart requests and the MDK/MediaKit players. On iOS 26 and later, the playback and danmaku engine selectors use the native UIKit popup menu. Bug Fixes Fixed white-screen and black-screen issues with the Erika engine on iOS. Fixed iOS 26 toolbar actions being clipped at the screen edge. Fixed SMB streaming subtitle auto-loading. Fixed Bangumi OAuth on Android 11 and later. Fixed danmaku stroke oversaturation at large widths. Fixed a crash in the detached window title bar during multi-window playback. Removed duplicate home content controls from General Settings; these are now managed in Appearance Settings only.

What's New in NipaPlay v1.11.1 New Features Android now supports native hardware-accelerated video playback with SDR and extended linear HDR output, plus real-time diagnostics for decoder, audio, and output. You can also open video files directly from other apps via the system file picker without copying media first. The Danmaku Console (Linux + mpv) gains progress bar scrubbing, duration and pause state display, danmaku outline toggle, and a live danmaku list that highlights on-screen comments with color and timestamps. Play/pause controls, precise timestamp seeking, and danmaku filtering by sender ID, keyword, or regular expression are also included. Opacity and outline changes regenerate the ASS file and hot-reload in mpv instantly. A new Series Details entry appears in the player context menu when the current video matches a known series, with correct source context for local files, WebDAV, Emby, Jellyfin, and more. Quick Start Playback begins playing as soon as the video is ready, with series recognition and danmaku loading continuing in the background. The home screen restores the poster bloom effect, now toggleable in Appearance settings. Key functions including danmaku conversion, subtitle matching, and media parsing have been rewritten in Rust for better performance, with automatic fallback if the Rust bridge fails to load. Improvements The settings sidebar now scales only the icon and label on hover, keeping the background and tap target stable. The About page sponsor names have a cleaner look, and the Check for Updates button transitions smoothly to the accent color on hover. Player submenus now share a consistent container height, eliminating layout jumps when switching panels. Bug Fixes Fixed frame drops and stuttering in the DFM+ danmaku engine on Android. Characters are now pre-rasterized asynchronously, the MSDF worker pool runs 4 threads in parallel, and the atlas size has increased from 4096 to 8192 to reduce evictions. Android now requests the highest available refresh rate at launch; iPad Pro ProMotion runs at a stable 120 FPS. Fixed folder import failing on Android, playback failure when filenames contained Chinese characters or the percent symbol, and library loading failure on Emby servers returning HTML error responses from reverse-proxy or Cloudflare setups. Fixed the Liquid Glass tab bar being obscured under Android three-button and iOS gesture navigation. Fixed the Liquid Glass fallback renderer misidentifying shapes on Android Release builds due to code obfuscation. Fixed stuttering during series detail page transitions caused by per-frame layer reallocation.

NipaPlay v1.10.12 Changelog New Features & Experience Improvements Moved bullet screen display settings to the player menu (#702) Frequently used playback controls for bullet screens—including transparency, font size, font files, stroke, shadow, scrolling speed, display area, duplicate merging, and bullet type filtering—can now be adjusted directly in the NipaPlay and Cupertino player menus. The random color entry has also been restored on the Cupertino bullet screen settings page, and the display hierarchy of the filter word input box in NipaPlay has been streamlined for a cleaner interface. Bug Fixes & Optimizations Adapted bullet screen rendering surface for Erika on iOS (#700) On iOS, the Erika platform’s rendering surface defaults to full-screen dimensions, allowing bullet screens to cover letterbox black bars. The original AspectRatio wrapping method can still be enabled as a debug or rollback switch via the environment variable NIPAPLAY_IOS_ERIKA_ASPECT_SURFACE=1. Maintenance & Release Pipeline Switched Erika CI to prebuilt C APIs (#701) Builds for macOS, iOS, and Windows now utilize prebuilt artifacts of Erika v0.1.1. A Windows source code build path is retained as a fallback for mandatory builds or scenarios where prebuilt artifacts are disabled. Fixed fallback download for Windows mdk-sdk (#703) The GitHub fallback download for mdk-sdk in Windows builds now dynamically locates the latest release assets, supporting new naming conventions such as mdk-sdk-windows-x64-vs2026.7z. This prevents build failures caused by accidental 404 errors during fallback downloads. Corrected Android release build paths (#699) Removed redundant duplicate build/symbols-android-*/ symbol paths from the release workflow to resolve packaging errors stemming from bloated Android build output directories. Separate symbol file upload functionality remains intact. Strengthened release permissions (#698) The release workflow prioritizes the dedicated RELEASE_GITHUB_TOKEN, falling back to github.token only if the dedicated token is missing. This mitigates permission issues when querying release notes via the API and uploading build artifacts. Contributors @FurudeRika123, @MCDFsteve, @Shinokawa, @makabaka11

some changes

**NipaPlay v1.10.7 Update Log** **New Features & Experience Improvements** - Added user comment system to anime details page (NipaUI) (#551) - A new "Comments" tab is added to the anime details page, showing user comments by default. Loads 20 comments at a time with infinite scrolling. Logged-in users can click the "Edit Comment" button to set a rating and write a short comment via a lightweight popup; non-logged-in users can browse comments as well. - Plugin marketplace now includes built‑in mirror fallback (#547) - The plugin marketplace now ships with multiple mirror sources. If access to the official address fails, the app automatically probes and switches to an available mirror – no need to manually configure acceleration proxies. The hint text for the acceleration source has been updated to "Leave empty to use built‑in acceleration source automatically". - Next2 bullet‑chat core fully upgraded (#550) - New scanner implementation. - Added shadow effect for bullet chats in the next2 core. - Support for rendering special characters and emojis. - Next2 bullet‑chat collision routing optimized (#556) - Adopts a will‑hit style track selection algorithm, reducing overlap and tailgating while preserving the scaling behaviour for merged bullet chats. - On tablets, hide time and battery indicators in the top‑right corner when not in full‑screen mode (#543) - On tablet devices, when playing in non‑full‑screen mode, the time and battery information in the top‑right corner of the player is automatically hidden to avoid obscuring video content. - Added plugin marketplace entry to CupertinoUI plugin settings page (#544) - The CupertinoUI plugin settings page now offers a plugin marketplace entry; tapping it brings up the plugin marketplace panel from the bottom. **Bug Fixes** - Fixed next2 bullet‑chat engine failing to render on Windows (#555) - Resolved the issue where bullet chats did not display at all on Windows. Root cause was that a C++ plugin compilation error under MSVC prevented the new DLL from being deployed. Also fixed low‑level problems such as frame‑ready signals not firing under DX12 and timer callbacks failing; now uses an independent polling thread to ensure stable rendering. - Fixed custom font import not taking effect in next2 (#553) - Resolved the issue where imported custom fonts did not work in the next2 bullet‑chat engine. The font path is now correctly passed to the Rust side for glyph atlas generation and is prioritised before falling back to default fonts. - Fixed performance issue with next2 bullet‑chat shadow rendering (#552) - Optimised rendering overhead: reduced shadow render resolution and decreased blur samples from 9 to 5, eliminating frame drops and startup stutter when first used while preserving the shadow effect. - Fixed plugin switch settings being lost after restart (#549) - Switch‑type options in plugin settings are now persisted; user choices are no longer reset to default after restarting the app. Related: #548 - Fixed CupertinoUI downloader icon display error and related issues (#544) - Corrected the icon mapping for the "Downloader" entry in CupertinoUI’s navigation bar (previously incorrectly showing a solid circle). - Fixed the GitHub acceleration source save button being invisible due to background and foreground colours being identical. - Fixed the issue where, after closing the plugin marketplace panel, focus fell into a text box and unexpectedly triggered the soft keyboard. - Fixed layout disorder of anime info title (#554) - Resolved abnormal layout when the anime info title is too long; the episode label now always stays to the right of the title with consistent spacing. - Fixed next2 not rendering on Android (#550) - Resolved the issue where the next2 bullet‑chat engine could not render properly on the Android platform. **Contributors** - @FurudeRika123, @Heylyx841, @MCDFsteve, @makabaka11

# New Features & Experience Improvements ## Next2 Rust Danmaku Engine (Experimental) (#531) A brand-new Next2 danmaku engine is introduced. Track allocation and rendering core are migrated to Rust, adopting full Rust-based computation and rendering pipeline. This feature is only available on partial platforms. Enable the toggle in **Settings > Labs** to display the engine option in the dropdown menu. Original behaviors remain unchanged by default. ## Quick WebDAV Access with TMDB ID Matching (#530) Based on existing BGmid matching, support fast danmaku matching via embedded `tmdbid=xxxx` in filenames, skipping 16MB file download and hash calculation. Matching priority: BGmid > TMDB ID > fallback hash matching. An experimental toggle for automatic episode offset correction is added to fix inconsistent episode numbering across seasons. Both toggles stay disabled by default and only apply to WebDAV playback. ## Chained Pipeline for Plugin Danmaku Processing (#538) A chained processing pipeline is added for the `danmaku.modify` plugin permission. Multiple enabled danmaku filter plugins execute sequentially by ascending priority, with outputs passed as subsequent inputs, eliminating content overwriting issues. Priority field is added to plugin manifest templates, and relevant API documents are updated. Player shortcuts are automatically disabled when popup windows open to avoid accidental playback control triggers. Related: #536, #528 ## Configurable Android Libmpv Audio Backend (#533) New **Android Audio Backend** option in player settings supports switching between OpenSL ES and AudioTrack. Audio processed via Android audio framework under AudioTrack mode supports system sound effects including Dolby Atmos. OpenSL ES remains default. The option only shows on Android devices using Libmpv engine. App restart required after switching. ## IPv6 Support for Remote Access QR Code (#521) Both IPv4 and IPv6 local addresses display when remote access is enabled. The web server prioritizes IPv6 binding with IPv4 as backup. All valid addresses are encoded into QR code for automatic connection attempts. ## Mobile Function Completion (#522) - Add bulk danmaku matching button for mobile folder view - Add plugin marketplace entry and GitHub acceleration settings on mobile UI - Add save button for GitHub mirror source with URL validity and connectivity verification - Traditional Chinese subtitles load preferentially when app language is set to Traditional Chinese Related: #515 ## Danmaku Rendering Performance Optimization (#519) Optimize layout and rendering hot paths of Next danmaku engine, reducing per-frame memory allocation and cache fluctuation while retaining smooth dragging response. Default mobile danmaku outline style switched to stroke; desktop style unchanged. # Bug Fixes - Fixed flickering tooltip of playback controls on Windows (#534) In-place overlay updates and debounce timers eliminate false trigger events caused by Windows frame refresh. - Fixed failure to render embedded SRT subtitles in MKV files (#524) Avoid unconditional font directory clearance when applying subtitle styles; embedded ASS subtitles work unaffected. - Fixed invisible text in video source selection popup under light mode (#525) Text color adapts to system theme instead of fixed white. - Fixed incorrect download icon display on mobile devices (#522) Related: #515 - Upgraded Flutter SDK to resolve black screen crash on Windows 11 25H2 (#535) SDK updated from 3.38.5 to 3.41.9 to fix graphics stack incompatibility. # Maintenance & Release Resolved Rust build path parsing errors on Linux desktop and linking failures on Windows, restoring CI builds (#539, #540, #541, #542) Version updated to 1.10.6 # Contributors @FurudeRika123, @MCDFsteve, @Shinokawa, @makabaka11, @weiyongzenqi

**NipaPlay v1.10.5 Release Notes** **New Features** - **WebDAV file search and bgmid matching optimization (#502):** Added a file search function on the WebDAV browsing page, supporting recursive traversal, real-time result display, and various search configurations (search scope, depth, timeout, max results, etc.), with persistent saving of search settings. Also optimized the default regular expression for bgmid matching to be compatible with more URL formats (e.g., `bgmid=12345` and `bgm-12345`). This feature is located in the Labs section. - **Comprehensive plugin system upgrade (#513):** Added a plugin event system that supports listening for events such as video loading, play, pause, seek, danmaku display, and settings changes. Added plugin lifecycle hooks (initialization, destroy, resume, suspend). Improved the permission system, covering categories like player control, danmaku modification, media library read/write, dialog display, data storage, and system overlay. Added a plugin marketplace entry and connected it to an online plugin repository, supporting search, installation, and description viewing. Added a plugin update checking system and minimum version check on import. Supported optional GitHub acceleration URL configuration. Added a text box configuration item type for plugin settings. Registered JS-Dart bridges for all exposed plugin APIs. Added a downloader entry for the Cupertino-style interface. - **Torrent downloader workflow improvements (#509):** After a download completes, users can now directly play the downloaded video file with a file selection dialog. Added a downloader setting to automatically scan completed download tasks into the media library. Fixed the issue of creating a folder with the same name for magnet link downloads—torrent metadata is now parsed before creating the output directory. Restored write permissions for the download directory on macOS. Incomplete download tasks no longer show a play button. - **Remote access QR code connection (#510):** Added a toggle in Labs settings to display a QR code for remote access. When enabled, a QR code can be shown on the remote access settings page, prioritizing the LAN address for easy mobile scanning. Added a camera-based QR code scanning flow on mobile, accessible from the shared media library and remote control pages. After scanning, the shared media library and remote controller addresses are automatically synchronized. - **Mobile URL playback and multi-server management (#508):** Mobile now supports directly entering a URL to play videos in the import video interface. Remote media libraries now support adding multiple server addresses. Related: #497. **Bug Fixes** - **Fixed video playback stuttering on Linux (#484):** Removed per-frame EGL context switching from the media_kit video rendering path on Linux, instead reusing Flutter's current EGL/GL context for mpv rendering. This resolves the raster thread blocking issue when playing videos with Mesa/NVIDIA drivers, notably improving stuttering during window resizing and fullscreen toggling. - **Fixed DanDanPlay icon display issues in light/dark mode (#503):** Fixed the DanDanPlay icon in media server settings being invisible under certain themes; the icon color now adapts to the theme. Related: #490. - **Fixed mobile remote access, danmaku icon shadow, and playlist sorting issues (#504):** Enabled remote access settings on mobile (including iOS) and updated network permission descriptions. Playlist and episode navigation now use natural filename sorting. Added matching lightweight shadows to the danmaku toggle SVG icon. Related: #500, #489, #481. - **Fixed iOS 26 liquid glass UI clipping issue and other mobile fixes (#508):** Fixed the native liquid glass UI on iOS 26 from clipping through Flutter UI. Fixed the issue where the framerate UI was not displayed when info overlay was enabled on mobile. Fixed volume control issues on PC. Related: #506, #505.

NipaPlay v1.10.4 Changelog New Features Performance Monitor Panel Upgrade (#474)The performance overlay (Perf HUD) now adopts Rust for real CPU, memory and GPU metric sampling, delivering more accurate data. Redesigned as a standalone global floating window with a compact plain-text layout, it automatically switches to multi-line display on small-screen devices. Custom Accent Color (#479)Users can now select and switch the app’s accent color directly in appearance settings. Batch Addition of Danmaku Block Words (#482)The danmaku blocking feature supports bulk entry; multiple keywords and rules can be input at once with comma separation. A universal text input dialog has been added for mobile platforms to optimize typing experience when the keyboard pops up. Related: #480 Torrent Download Function (#483, #486)A dedicated Torrent Downloads tab has been added between the media library and profile pages. Integrated with Rust libraries, this feature enables download task management and default save directory configuration. It is optional and can be enabled in settings. Fast Danmaku Matching for WebDAV (#491)When playing WebDAV videos, custom regular expressions can extract BGM IDs from URLs, skipping video hash calculation for instant danmaku loading. Configure this option via Settings > Labs > WebDAV Quick Settings. Watched Episode Markers for Remote Media Libraries (#492)Watched episodes in remote media libraries such as Emby and Jellyfin are now marked with green checkmarks on detail pages for easier progress tracking. Related: #221 Official Release of Rust-Powered File Scanning (#496)The formerly experimental Rust file scanner has been promoted to a core feature with the lab toggle removed. Local media library scanning and refreshing now use the high-efficiency Rust engine by default. Bangumi Sync Guide Addition (#495)Help documentation entries have been added to the Bangumi sync section in the account page, clarifying the differences and usage of DanDanPlay Built-in Sync and NipaPlay Sync. Bug Fixes macOS Player Compatibility Fix (#478) Updated the libmpv dependency to resolve runtime failures on older macOS versions caused by incorrect Swift deployment target configurations. Related: #476 Settings Page Crash Resolution (#487) Fixed crashes triggered under specific conditions when accessing system settings or remote access configurations.
