Initial Release 🎉 |
The first public release shipped just over a week ago — a big milestone for the project!
🔀 Open Pull Requests (2)
A critical bug was identified and fixed: enabling the energy-saving screen dimming mode was inadvertently stopping the RTMP stream. The root cause was that removing the CameraPreview composable from composition triggered surfaceDestroyed → stopPreview(), killing the encoder's frame source.
The fix is clean: energy-saving is implemented entirely as a UI overlay — a near-black Box composited over the always-present SurfaceView. The encoder, camera session, and RTMP connection are completely untouched. Toggling on/off any number of times is safe.
👉 Action needed: Review and merge PR #5 — this resolves a "major" usability issue for long streaming sessions.
A spurious calendar query was routed to the repo and correctly triaged with no changes made. This PR can be closed.
💻 Codebase Highlights
- 91 Kotlin source files across the full MVVM architecture
- All core architectural components are in place:
StreamingService (FGS, state machine, RTMP lifecycle)ConnectionManager (reconnect with exponential backoff + jitter)EncoderController (Mutex-serialized ABR + thermal quality changes)ThermalStatusMonitor / BatteryTempMonitor (API-branched thermal handling)EndpointProfileRepository (EncryptedSharedPreferences-backed credentials)- Full Compose UI:
StreamScreen, SettingsHub, EndpointScreen, CameraPreview, StreamHud
- 150 unit tests passing (T-035 QA acceptance suite completed ✅)
- Both
foss and gms build flavors compiling successfully

🎯 Recommended Next Steps
- Review & merge PR
#5 — the energy-saving stream fix is ready and well-scoped. Move it out of draft and get it landed.
- Close PR
#6 — it's a triaged no-op; keeping it open adds noise.
- Plan next feature sprint — with the MVP foundation solid, consider which Phase 2/3 items from the Implementation Plan to tackle next:
- T-024: Background camera revocation (audio-only fallback)
- T-025: Local MP4 recording
- T-027: Process death recovery / rebind
- Consider a v0.0.2 patch release once the energy-saving fix is merged.
- Tag issues for the backlog — no open issues currently; consider filing tracked issues for remaining Implementation Plan tasks to improve visibility.
