Kayos 284fe5fde7 M6 DONE — torttube ships, Rick Astley plays fullscreen on the Livingroom Pi 
Live install verified end-to-end:
- SSH'd into 192.168.0.158 (LibreELEC, Kodi 20.3 Nexus, kernel aarch64
  / userspace armhf — that's why the static Rust sidecar runs but the
  PyInstaller yt-dlp binary couldn't)
- Dropped addon dir into /storage/.kodi/addons/
- systemctl restart kodi → Kodi rescans /storage/.kodi/addons/
- JSON-RPC Addons.SetAddonEnabled flipped enabled:false → true
- Player.Open with plugin URL → 7s yt-dlp resolve → VideoFullScreen.xml,
  fullscreen:true, currentwindow 12005, audio+video synced

Fixes that surfaced during the install:
- yt-dlp swap: PyInstaller aarch64 binary needs ld-linux-aarch64.so.1
  which LibreELEC doesn't ship. Switched to the universal Python zipapp
  (~3MB) which runs on /usr/bin/python3.11. build-addon-zip.sh updated.
- main.py now puts the addon's bin/ dir on PATH so the sidecar's
  Command::new('yt-dlp') call resolves to the bundled zipapp.
- Cosmetic fix: resolve.rs's classify_yt_dlp_error preserves the
  original error message (was downcasing it for keyword matching and
  then using the lowercased copy as the user-facing error).

Caveats logged for later:
- 360p ceiling (yt-dlp '-f best[ext=mp4]' picks itag 18; 720p
  progressive itag 22 is deprecated by YouTube; higher quality wants
  DASH manifest generation).
- ALSA sink: device 'sysdefault:CARD=vc4hdmi1' fails to open on this
  Pi but Kodi auto-falls-back to 'sysdefault' so audio works. Worth
  cleaning up in Kodi audio settings later.

MILESTONES + docs/install.md updated with the SSH + JSON-RPC alternate
install path.

Raw Blame History

torttube milestones

M0 — Scaffold [current]

  • Sulkta-Coop/torttube on LAN Gitea
  • Layout: addon/ (Python) + sidecar/ (Rust workspace)
  • GPL-3.0 license headers
  • crafting-table build target produces a static aarch64 sidecar binary

M1 — sidecar resolve (three-tier)

  • reads {"op":"resolve","id":"<yt-id>"} from stdin
  • Tier 1: rustypipe → {"streams":[…],"title":"…","duration_s":N,"source":"rustypipe"}
  • Tier 2: on Tier-1 failure, shell out to yt-dlp -j <url> → same JSON shape with "source":"yt-dlp"
  • Tier 3: new op {"op":"rip","id":"<yt-id>","dest":"/storage/.kodi/temp/torttube/<id>.<ext>"} invoked by addon on Tier-1+2 stream failures or 403-mid-play; yt-dlp downloads file, sidecar returns local path
  • typed errors for age-restricted / region-restricted / private (not panics)
  • sig decoding verified against a known-good video
  • DASH manifest URL or per-itag direct stream URL — whichever inputstream.adaptive prefers

M2 — SponsorBlock

  • {"op":"sponsorblock","id":"<yt-id>"} → segments array
  • SHA-256 prefix lookup (privacy-preserving — only send first 4 hex chars)
  • category filter honoured from addon settings (skip / mute / show only)
  • cache per-session

M3 — Kodi addon plays one video

  • addon.xml + main.py register as video plugin
  • main.py handles plugin://plugin.video.torttube/?action=play&id=<id> and ?url=<full-url> — wired so JSON-RPC Player.Open from any LAN client (phone, HA, curl) triggers resolve + play. See docs/remote-control.md.
  • cross-compile sidecar for aarch64, drop into bin/ of addon dir
  • install + smoke on LibreELEC RPi at 192.168.0.158
  • (later) hardcoded list of 3 test videos for in-Kodi navigation

M4 — search + channel browse

  • search box → sidecar {"op":"search","q":"…"} → results
  • channel browse → {"op":"channel","id":"…"}
  • playlist browse → {"op":"playlist","id":"…"}
  • result thumbnails + duration + uploader

M5 — SponsorBlock skipping

  • background thread on Player() polls position
  • when position enters a skip segment → xbmc.Player().seekTime(end)
  • toast on skip + skip-counter in settings
  • category toggles in settings.xml

M6 — install + cross-compile [DONE]

  • cross-compile sidecar for aarch64-musl static via throwaway messense/rust-musl-cross:aarch64-musl container. 6.2MB stripped static binary. Builds clean from scripts/build-addon-zip.sh.
  • bundle yt-dlp's universal Python zipapp (~3MB, not the PyInstaller binary — that breaks on LibreELEC's armhf userspace because the aarch64 dynamic loader doesn't exist; Python zipapp runs on /usr/bin/python3 which is always there).
  • zip layout matches Kodi "install from zip" expectations
  • addon.zip dropped at smb://lucy/downloads/torttube/
  • install + smoke recipe documented at docs/install.md
  • installed on Livingroom Pi (192.168.0.158) via SSH + systemctl restart kodi + Addons.SetAddonEnabled
  • JSON-RPC Player.Open smoke verified — Rick Astley played end-to-end with audio + video synced (yt-dlp -f best[ext=mp4]/best picked format 18, 360p H.264+AAC progressive)
  • armv7 build for older Pis (deferred — current TV is aarch64-capable and my static sidecar runs on it even though userspace is armhf)
  • 720p+ playback (deferred to M5+) — itag 22 (720p progressive) is deprecated by YouTube; higher quality needs DASH manifest generation

Upstream PR work (parallel lane — every bug evaluated for "fix it upstream?")

This isn't a separate milestone, it's a posture. Every sidecar bug we diagnose: ask "is this rustypipe / NPE / yt-dlp's bug?" — if yes, fix lands upstream too. Log every filed PR in docs/upstream.md.

Opening shortlist:

  • rustypipe PR #77 — review + help land
  • NPE #1357 (JDoc) — smallest credible PR, opens the relationship
  • NPE #1444 (typed errors) — clean signal/contract change
  • NPE #1360 (refactor link handlers, "help wanted")
  • rustypipe ↔ NPE port — anything one project has that the other lacks
