Seamless Playback and Consistent Screen State
Eliminated loop-point gaps in continuous playback and restructured each mode's screen layout by scene.
A subtle gap was occurring at the loop boundary in continuous playback — a result of audio session initialization and track loading operating on misaligned timings. The playback state management was redesigned so that the end and start points of a track connect within a single continuous flow, eliminating the gap introduced by timing mismatches.
Screen-to-playback synchronization was also addressed. When audio, video, and current track metadata are not managed from a single source, one component updates ahead of the others, producing a visible desync. These inconsistencies do not surface in feature specifications but directly degrade the reliability of the playback experience. The three components were restructured to reference a shared state.
Screen layout was updated along the same lines. Content exposure criteria across browse and recommendation surfaces were unified, and each mode was reorganized by scene to provide a distinct entry structure. The underlying requirement is that screen transitions do not interrupt playback continuity while audio is active.
