- SUPPORTED_SUB_LANGUAGE_CODES[] that I introduced was pretty redundant when SUPPORTED_LANGUAGES[] already hold the information. The logic to ignore sub-languages (i.e. reduce the locale's "en-GB" to "en" is now located in getDefaultLanguage()).
- SUPPORTED_BROWSER_LANGUAGES[] and SUPPORTED_LANGUAGES[] look so similar and hard to tell what the former is for at first glance. The functionality to map 'zh-CN' to 'zh-Hans' is now handled by resolveLanguageAlias(), which makes the intention clearer.
This leaves us with a single list -- SUPPORTED_LANGUAGES[], whose key also tells us the desired language code to use.
Also, clients now need to call `resolveLanguageAlias` to map any language code aliases, as they differ depending on how it is queried (e.g. `navigator.language` vs. `app.getLocal()` uses different standards).
I think we no longer need to explicitly migrate existing user's 'zh-CN' into 'zh-Hans' because the rest of the system will always use the desired language code as long as 'resolveLanguageAlias' is called appropriately. e.g. the system uses `selectLanguage` and `selectLanguage` calls `resolveLanguageAlias`.
## Issue
Closes 5811: Video-embed in markdown-post is broken
- Revert "Fix 'makeSelectIsPlaying' to look at 'playing' instead of 'primary'." dabdc980a1.
- Revert "Fix 'isPlaying' to reflect 'playing' instead of 'primary' URI" 351890decf.
Reverting means "Deleting MD from downloads list causes spinning icon to run forever 4959" gets re-opened, but this is a way less severe issue to leave in.
Closes 5000: AutoPlay in Floating Player only works one time
Factor out the code that queries the recommendation. It needs to be called in two places:
(1) `RecommendedContent` - need to cover the case of floating player + visit another video page.
(2) When video is floating and autoplayed the next video.
## Issue
Closes#5720: Edit: channel-selector should re-populate with original channel
## Notes
'incognito' was not set to false, causing the 'ChannelSelector' to select Anonymous.
- remove anon option in channel dropdown when livestream tab is selected
- attempt to fill publish form with current active channel name just prior to publishing to (edge condition)
- edge condition occurs when user fills out form fully. User switches to Post (which allows anon in drop down selector). User selects Anon channel, then switches back to the livestream tab. The form was previously updated with `channel: undefined` but does not get changed when clicking the livestream tab. So we just updated the form one last time prior to publishing as a livestream
- Show most recent livestream claim on livestream setup page instead of first livestream claim
## Issue
Closes 5687: Ensure post mode has no text limit
## Changes
- `type="markdown"` can now have unlimited length if clients don't define `textAreaMaxWidth`.
- The internal default limit of 2000 is narrowed down to `type=textarea`.
## Issue
Closes 3661: Autoplay + Related go into loops ( infinite ) sometimes
## GUI
Push the actual "next" item into the top of the list.
## History search
1. Skip if the next item is itself.
2. The URL stored in the history comes in various forms, so a direct comparison won't work.
- There's also a weird case where the URL differs by just a little (p.09 vs p-09), but with the same claim ID:
lbry://vacuum-tube-computer-p.09-–-building#5212bc8bc63c373e2bf1ebc5b765595ed7b6514d
lbry://vacuum-tube-computer-p-09-–-building#5212bc8bc63c373e2bf1ebc5b765595ed7b6514d
Check the claim_id as well to cover cases like these.
## Changes
- Restore original code for how Volume and Mute is restored.
- Playback rate will be only change that gets "re-restored" in "loadedmetadata".
## Issue
5513: Video-setting persistence broken
## Notes
- Per videojs recommendation, the setting-restoration should be done after the video has been loaded, so the action was moved to `loadedmetadata`. This fixed the volume slider problem, and should have fixed the playbackRate too.
- For playbackRate, there is another special case where it gets reset to 1 (refer to comments in code).
## Issue
Closes 4936: Don't process markdown formatting as lbry:// url previews
## Approach
Preamble:
- We want to convert plain `https://lbry.tv/befreeonlbry` to an embed, but not `[blah](https://lbry.tv/befreeonlbry)`.
- At the markdown/remark level, both formats resolve to the same node type, having a `link` and a `text`, with the 'text' being auto-filled with the `href` if there is no label.
Fix by assuming the link is the non-labelled format if the `text` is the same as `href`.
This opens up one corner-case that we can't handle, which is when the user explicitly set the label using the href, e.g. `[https://lbry.tv/befreeonlbry](https://lbry.tv/befreeonlbry)`. This will still resolve to an embed. There's not enough data at the parsed level differentiate this case -- we would need to parse the content ourself before `remark`, which I think is not worth it.
## Aside/Reminder
If you see that the link doesn't resolve to an embed regardless of the format used, that's probably just due to `5636: Disable video previews in comments/posts made by channels below a certain channel staked level`
- Channel About
- description: seems handy to have a preview, so pulled in the "allowed" logic.
- email: shouldn't render preview at all
- website: shouldn't render preview at all
- Publish Preview:
- description: there's not enough height anyway, so don't render preview.
## Issue
- Closes "Wunder: Keyboard typing confusion" (https://discord.com/channels/362322208485277697/377895389992321064/784309720293965824)
- Closes 5316: "Home and End keys not working in search box"
## New behavior
Home/End key now behaves like it normally would in a typical text box, i.e.:
- Brings you to the start or end position.
- Adding a <Shift> key also selects the text from the current position.
To select the top or bottom item in the Suggestion Popup List, use Ctrl+Home/End instead (without this change, it was just Home/End previously).
## Approach
Adding the listener at the element level allows us to run it before the component's listener.
