New ytsage/utils/ytsage_library_manager.py: sagetube_library.db
(separate from the upstream download-history DB) with WAL from day one,
holding subscriptions, cached feed_items, watch_history with resume
positions, and the persisted play_queue. Watch history and queue tables
are wired up by the next commit.
FeedPage:
- Local mode: FeedRefreshWorker refreshes each subscribed channel
sequentially (feed.per_channel_items, default 15) and the grid fills
incrementally per channel; results are cached so the feed is
populated instantly on startup.
- Account mode: fetches youtube.com/feed/subscriptions with the user's
browser cookies - the real logged-in feed; the option is enabled only
while cookies are active and errors surface as a status banner.
- Sidebar lists subscriptions (double-click opens the channel in
Browse; context menu unsubscribes). Browse's Subscribe button now
toggles subscription state through the Feed page.
Verified live: subscribe -> refresh -> 15 videos cached in SQLite and
rendered as cards.

BrowsePage accepts pasted or routed channel/playlist URLs:
- Channels get Videos / Shorts / Live sub-tabs mapped to the channel's
/videos, /shorts and /streams listings, lazily fetched 24 at a time
with -I range pagination; channel title and id resolve from a cheap
-I 1:1 metadata fetch. Subscribe emits subscribeRequested for the
Feed page to wire up.
- Playlists get a single grid with Play all (bulk-enqueues into the
Watch queue) and a Download button that deep-links the playlist into
the Downloads tab.
Workers are parented to their pages and fetch errors surface as status
text instead of crashing (verified against a channel with no videos
tab). fetch_flat_info gains an items="1:1" limiter so metadata probes
no longer enumerate whole channels.
Verified live: kurzgesagt channel (24 cards, title+id resolved) and a
17-video playlist with Play-all queueing.

The single-page downloader layout becomes the Downloads tab of a
SmoothTabWidget with Watch / Search / Feed / Browse / Downloads pages.
The init_ui edit is deliberately small (the old central widget is now
self.download_page); all new behavior lives in new modules:
- ytsage_gui_router.py: AppRouter signal hub (playVideo, queueVideo,
downloadVideo, openChannel, openPlaylist). A card's Download button
deep-links into the Downloads tab with the URL prefilled and analysis
started automatically.
- ytsage_gui_cards.py: VideoCard (thumbnail with disk cache under
APP_THUMBNAILS_DIR, title/channel/duration, Play/Queue/Download
actions, double-click to play) and VideoCardGrid (responsive grid,
Load more pagination).
- ytsage_gui_watch.py: WatchPage hosting the mpv PlayerPanel and a
drag-reorderable play queue with auto-advance on end of file.
- ytsage_gui_search.py: SearchPage running YtdlpClient.search off the
GUI thread with Load more pagination.
- Browse and Feed pages are placeholders, implemented next.

New ytsage/gui/ytsage_gui_player.py:
- MpvRenderWidget hosts libmpv through MpvRenderContext in a
QOpenGLWidget - works on native Wayland where wid-embedding cannot -
with all mpv-thread callbacks marshalled to the GUI thread via queued
signals only.
- PlayerPanel adds transport controls: play/pause, seek slider, time
display, quality selector (caps ytdl-format height and reloads in
place), speed, volume (persisted), subtitle toggle, fullscreen
(reparent to top-level window), and Space/F/Escape keys.
- Playback resolves watch URLs through mpv's ytdl_hook pointed at the
app-managed SHA256-verified yt-dlp binary (script-opts
ytdl_hook-ytdl_path), inheriting cookies and proxy settings via
ytdl-raw-options - stream freshness, DASH muxing and nsig handling
stay in yt-dlp's hands.
New ytsage/core/ytsage_mpv.py probes libmpv availability; without it
the Watch UI shows a per-OS install hint and everything else works.
python-mpv added to dependencies (libmpv itself is a system package).
Config gains player.* and feed.* defaults.
Verified on Wayland: real YouTube video streams with position/duration
signals flowing and no thread-safety errors.

Every metadata call site previously built its own command list. The new
ytsage/core/ytsage_client.py centralizes binary resolution (managed,
verified binary only), cookie/proxy args from ConfigManager (with
session-state overrides), utf-8 output handling, process-group-safe
timeouts, and a short-TTL cache for flat/search results.
Provides fetch_video_info, fetch_flat_info, fetch_flat_entries (with
-I range pagination), search (ytsearchN:), and fetch_account_feed
(youtube.com/feed/subscriptions with cookies) plus a generic YtdlpWorker
QThread. AnalysisThread now delegates its subprocess execution to the
shared runner; its signal surface is unchanged.
Groundwork for the SageTube watch/search/browse/feed features.

- show_error_dialog() aborted when QApplication construction itself was
the failure; fall back to stderr so the real error is visible.
- Auto-update QThread cleanup dropped the last Python reference while
run() could still be unwinding ("QThread: Destroyed while thread is
still running"); defer destruction to deleteLater on finished.
- macOS ffmpeg install no longer curl|bash-es the Homebrew bootstrap
script unattended; it now asks the user to install Homebrew
themselves and fails cleanly.

- Format table: a missing acodec was treated as "has audio", skipping
the +bestaudio merge and producing silent videos for extractors that
omit the field.
- Progress bar: separate video/audio stream downloads each reported
0-100%, making the bar jump backwards; per-phase scaling now maps the
two streams onto 0-50/50-100.
- Custom commands: parse with shlex (quoted arguments with spaces were
shredded by str.split), keep POSIX mode off on Windows so backslash
paths survive, hide the console window like every other call site,
close the stdout pipe, and support cancellation of a running command.
- Settings dialog: _("settings", "error_saving", ...) passed two
positional args to the i18n helper, raising TypeError inside the
except handler instead of showing the intended error dialog.
- ffmpeg on Windows: Path(os.getenv("LOCALAPPDATA")) crashed with
TypeError when the variable is unset; fall back to the standard
AppData/Local location.
- Version cache: cached path (str) was compared against a Path, so the
cache never hit and every version query spawned a subprocess.

- Config saves are atomic (temp file + fsync + os.replace); a crash or
power loss mid-write no longer truncates the file, which previously
caused a silent reset to defaults on next launch.
- Stored config is merged over a deep copy of the defaults: keys added
in newer versions resolve properly instead of returning None, and the
nested cached_versions dict is no longer shared with (and mutated on)
the class-level default dict.
- History SQLite connection enables WAL and a 5s busy timeout so the
download thread can record entries while the history dialog reads
without "database is locked" errors.

- get_yt_dlp_path() no longer implicitly executes a bare "yt-dlp" from
PATH (on Windows that lookup includes the CWD, so a planted binary
in a writable directory could be run). A system yt-dlp is used only
behind the explicit advanced.allow_system_ytdlp config opt-in, and
then always as a which()-resolved absolute path. Analysis and
download refuse to exec the not-installed sentinel.
- Analysis subprocesses now run in their own session and the whole
process group is killed on timeout, so deno grandchildren no longer
leak; partial stderr is preserved and logged, and output decoding is
pinned to utf-8 with replacement (Windows locale codecs crashed on
non-UTF8 titles).
- Flat-playlist entries are filtered for None (private/deleted first
video no longer breaks analysis).
- update_yt_dlp() normalizes the sentinel to Path, unbreaking the pip
fallback path that crashed on str.exists().

Pause only stopped the stdout reader loop; yt-dlp kept transferring at
full rate until the pipe buffer filled, consuming bandwidth while the
UI claimed the download was paused. Send SIGSTOP/SIGCONT to the whole
process group (yt-dlp and its ffmpeg children) on Unix. Windows has no
equivalent signal; the limitation is documented in the helper.

The yt-dlp stable/nightly channel switcher mutated QLabel/QRadioButton
state directly from a raw threading.Thread, which is undefined behavior
in Qt. The worker now only runs the subprocess and emits a signal; the
connected slot applies all widget updates on the GUI thread via Qt's
queued delivery.

Three gaps allowed an unverified binary to reach a trusted location:
- The ffmpeg ZIP fallback logged a warning on checksum mismatch and
installed anyway (the 7z path already aborted). Abort instead.
- The yt-dlp auto-update path downloaded and renamed the binary over
the verified one with no checksum at all. Verify against the official
SHA2-256SUMS like the first-install path, and use atomic os.replace.
- The yt-dlp first install streamed the download directly to the
trusted path and only verified afterwards; a crash in between left an
unverified executable to be run on next launch. Download to .part and
os.replace only after verification.

setx truncates values at 1024 characters, and the old code fed it the
merged process PATH (system + user), permanently duplicating every
system entry into the user hive and silently dropping anything past the
limit. Read and rewrite only the HKCU Environment Path value with
winreg, preserving REG_EXPAND_SZ, and broadcast WM_SETTINGCHANGE.

Unpacking getOpenFileName() into a variable named _ made _ local to
select_ytdlp_path(), so the i18n _() calls earlier in the function
raised UnboundLocalError before the file dialog could open, breaking
manual binary selection entirely.

cleanup_partial_files() deleted every *.part and *.fNNN.* file in the
whole download directory, and cleanup_subtitle_files() deleted any new
.vtt/.srt under it recursively - including files belonging to other
applications (e.g. a browser's own .part downloads in ~/Downloads).
Track every destination path yt-dlp reports for this download and
restrict both cleanup passes to those files and their .part/.ytdl
siblings.
