Fix: energy-saving mode stops RTMP stream |

High priority — fixes a "major" streaming regression |

PR #5 Deep Dive 🔍
This fixes a critical issue where activating energy-saving mode (hide preview + dim screen) caused the live RTMP stream to stop. Root cause: any code path calling stopPreview() while streaming kills the camera capture session, cutting encoder frame input.
The fix is elegant — energy-saving is now implemented as a pure UI overlay (a near-black 0xFF111111 box over CameraPreview). The SurfaceView stays in the Compose composition at all times, so the encoder is never disturbed. Toggling on/off multiple times during a live stream is safe. ✅
⚠️ Note: The build environment had dl.google.com blocked by firewall, so the PR couldn't be compiled during the agent run. Manual review + build verification recommended before merging.
🏗️ Implementation Progress
The codebase is well-structured and matches the architecture plan closely. Key components confirmed present:
Service layer ✅
StreamingService, ConnectionManager, EncoderController, AbrPolicy, AbrLadderNotificationController, BatteryMonitor, CameraSwitcher, MediaModeTransitionReconnectPolicy, TransportSecurity, CameraRevocationHandler, MicrophoneRevocationHandler
UI layer ✅
StreamScreen, StreamViewModel, StreamHud, CameraPreview, PermissionHandler- Settings screens:
AudioSettingsScreen, GeneralSettingsScreen
BatteryOptimizationGuide, PlainRtmpWarningDialog
Data/Crash layer ✅
LocalRecordingManager, RtmpCamera2Bridge, StubEncoderBridge
🎯 Recommended Next Steps
-
🔴 Review & merge PR #5 — This is a user-facing streaming stability fix. Priority 1. Verify it builds locally, then merge to unblock testing.
-
🗑️ Close PR #6 — It's a draft no-op PR from an off-topic query. No action needed.
-
🧪 Run full test suite — After merging PR #5, run ./gradlew testFossDebugUnitTest to confirm all 150 tests still pass.
-
📱 Manual stream test for energy-saving — Test the energy-saving overlay on a physical device: start stream → enable energy-saving → wait 60s → disable → confirm stream never dropped.
-
🔍 Outstanding WBS tasks — Review the IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md WBS for any T-0xx tasks not yet completed (e.g., T-025 Local MP4 Recording, T-028 Connection Test Button, T-040 OEM Battery Optimization Guidance).
-
📦 Consider v0.0.2 milestone — With the energy-saving fix and any other accumulated improvements, a v0.0.2 patch release would be a good next milestone.
