Add MutationObserver to neutralize LiveKit's re-attached <audio> elements,
mark our keep-alive elements with data-opencord, detach tracks on unsubscribe,
remove dangerous blanket .play(), and soften compressor to transparent limiter.
Streams no longer auto-focus into large view when they start — tiles
stay in the equal-size grid until manually clicked. Audio playback is
moved out of VoiceUser/StreamTile into a new GlobalAudioRenderer
component rendered in AppLayout so it survives channel navigation.
Streams now appear as separate tiles in the voice grid alongside the
user's camera/avatar tile, matching Discord's model. Each stream tile
has independent volume, mute, watch/unwatch controls, quality badges,
and stream attenuation that ducks audio when someone speaks.
- New PictureInPicture component: draggable floating window that shows
active stream when navigating away from voice channel, with LIVE badge,
snap-to-edge, click-to-navigate-back
- Fix VoiceUser to check actual track presence instead of boolean flags
for video rendering
- Add LocalTrackPublished/LocalTrackUnpublished events to useLiveKit
so local screen share and camera show immediately in VoiceGrid
- Add pipCollapsed state to uiStore
- Implemented 'Overdrive' logic to force high bitrates on Chrome
- Fixed 'Auto' preset to default to stable 720p60
- Added persistent 'Triple-Kick' hammer to prevent bitrate throttling
- Fixed sidebar connection status sync
- Added comprehensive diagnostic logger
- Guard Disconnected/ConnectionStateChanged event handlers against stale rooms:
old room events no longer nuke the new room's state (root cause of buttons
failing, mute getting stuck, DUPLICATE_IDENTITY cascades)
- Reset media state (isMuted/isCameraOn/isScreenSharing) on connect to prevent
desync after reconnects
- Add voiceStates to WS ready payload so users see who's in voice on page load
- Wire VoiceControls buttons to check getActiveRoom() before SDK calls
- Guard ChannelSidebar against re-joining the same voice channel
- Switch LIVEKIT_URL to wss://nova.ddns.net/livekit for HTTPS secure context
(required for getUserMedia in Safari)
Phase 1 - Feature Repair:
- Fix member kick/leave: add missing db.delete() call in servers.ts
- Stabilize invite codes: return existing code instead of regenerating
- Fix user search: use LIKE instead of exact match in social.ts
- Wire DM button on FriendsPage to create/navigate to DM channels
- Add cancel outgoing friend request (DELETE endpoint + frontend)
- Add accept/decline friend request actions with WS real-time events
- Fix replyToId persistence in message creation
- Hydrate reactions and replyTo in message queries
- Add joinByCode to API client and serverStore
- Add friend_request_received/accepted WebSocket events
Phase 2 - Discord UI Overhaul:
- Remove stray borders between layout columns
- Replace shadow-sm with shadow-header on content headers
- Replace all bg-gray-*/text-gray-* with Discord color tokens
- Ensure flat color contrast (#1E1F22, #2B2D31, #313338)
Testing:
- Set up vitest + @testing-library/react + jsdom
- Add 17 tests across InviteModal, JoinServer, FriendsPage (all passing)
- Fix vite resolve.extensions to prefer .tsx over stale .js files
