v2.2.0

Moonfin v2.2.0 Release Notes

Important

Tizen "SmartHub" releases are just gonna be Tizen and the legacy Tizen versions that don't support it are marked as legacy. Shocking right?

Shared / UI

• Fixed API authentication header — Replaced X-Emby-Authorization with standard Authorization header to prevent 400 errors on newer Jellyfin servers

• Lint cleanup — Fixed lint errors across multiple components
• User avatar opacity — Added setting to adjust the opacity of the user avatar in the navbar
• Home row backdrop toggle — Added setting to disable background art transitions when browsing rows, freeing GPU/memory resources on lower-end devices

webOS

v2.1.0

Moonfin v2.1.0 Release Notes

Important

With this release in order to connect to Seerr/Jellyseerr you will need to use the new Moonfin server plugin

Highlights

• Unified mono-repo — Tizen and webOS now share a single codebase with shared UI components, services, and views. Platform-specific code lives in dedicated packages. (Maintaining two codebases with 95% of the same code was annoying)

• Overhauled video playback — Three-tier playback fallback chain, corrected DirectPlay profiles from LG's AV format docs, native HLS, and Dolby Vision detection.
• Redesigned UI — New Details page, Library views, Login screen, Browse featured bar, and Account modal across both platforms.
• Music support — Full music library with album art, track lists, audio playlist navigation, and artist/album/song search.

---

Tizen

New Features

• Tizen 2.4 / legacy TV support — Added --legacy build flag, polyfills (globalThis, NodeList.forEach, whatwg-fetch), URL parsing utility for browsers without the URL constructor, Enact compatibility patches (CSS custom-properties, Button border-radius, ProgressBar inline styles, Slider knob, Scrollbar DOM fallback), and XHR mocking for ilib locale loading on file:// protocol.
• Smart Hub Preview — Wired up the background service for Smart Hub Preview on Tizen 4+; automatically skipped on legacy targets. NOT available on Tizen 2.4 and 3

• Samsung certificate and profile verification added to the build script before packaging .wgt.

Build & Tooling

• Tizen build pipeline adapted for mono-repo: enact pack runs from packages/app/ with BROWSERSLIST_CONFIG targeting chrome >= 38, safari >= 9.

---

webOS

New Features

• Overhauled video playback pipeline — Replaced per-mount video elements with a single shared instance (prevents webOS 4 from exhausting hardware decoders). Three-tier fallback: DirectPlay → native HEVC via Starfish → hls.js with H.264+AAC via MSE.
• Corrected DirectPlay profiles from LG docs — Fixed 7 profiles: VC-1 removed from TS, MP2 audio added to MKV/TS/AVI, VOB profile created, MPG/MPEG profile filled, AV1 level made resolution-responsive, HEVC added to M2TS, ASF/WMV codecs filled.

• GitHub Actions workflow for build and lint.
• @enact/cli and @webosose/ares-cli added as devDependencies.
• build.js script created to replace shell-based build.

v2.0.0

Welcome to Moonfin 2.0.0 - The Complete Rewrite

First off, thank you for your patience! I know it's been almost a month since 1.2.0, and I apologize for the wait. But I promise it was worth it.

Why 2.0.0?

This isn't just an update, it's a complete rewrite from the ground up.

The Old Way (1.0.0)

The original Moonfin was built with vanilla HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. While functional, this approach had limitations:

• Manual DOM manipulation for every UI update
• Custom-built navigation system that didn't always play nice with the remote
• Styling inconsistencies across different Tizen versions
• Each new feature required significant boilerplate code
• No component reusability which caused lots of copy-paste
• One-size-fits-all playback that didn't take advantage of your TV's capabilities

The New Way (2.0.0)

We've rebuilt everything using Enact, a React-based framework specifically designed for smart TVs. Here's what that means:

For Users:

• Smoother Performance - React's virtual DOM means efficient updates without the jank
• Better Remote Navigation - Enact's Spotlight system provides proper D-pad focus management out of the box. No more lost focus or weird navigation jumps
• Consistent UI - Sandstone components are designed for TV viewing distances and look great on your Samsung TV
• Faster Load Times - Optimized bundling, code splitting, and lazy loading
• Reliable State Management - The app remembers where you were and what you were doing

For Development:

• Component-Based Architecture - Reusable UI pieces mean fewer bugs and faster feature development
• Modern Tooling - Hot reloading, better debugging, proper build pipeline
• Battle-Tested Framework - We're building on top of code designed for exactly this use case
• Cleaner Codebase - From scattered scripts to organized, maintainable code
• Faster Iteration - New features that would have taken days now take hours

The bottom line: this foundation lets us ship updates faster and with more confidence. The hard work is done—now we can focus on features.

What's New

Smart Playback Engine

One of the biggest under-the-hood improvements. I completely rethought how Moonfin handles video playback:

• Per-Tizen-Version Codec Profiles - Your TV now reports exactly what it can play natively. Whether you're on Tizen 4, 5, 6, or newer, Moonfin tells Jellyfin precisely which codecs, resolutions, and audio formats your specific TV supports
• Samsung AVPlay Media Pipeline - We now use Samsung's native AVPlay API instead of relying solely on HTML5 video. This means hardware-accelerated playback, proper HDR support, and smoother performance
• VP9 & AV1 Container Support - Updated video codec container support for modern formats
• Smart Audio Stream Selection - Auto-selects the best compatible audio track during playback, with support for native track changes and fallback reloading
• HDR-to-SDR Transition Handling - Proper video cleanup and transition logic when switching between HDR and SDR content
• Ultrawide Resolution Tagging - Improved resolution logic to properly tag ultrawide videos as 4K
• Less Server Transcoding - By accurately reporting your TV's capabilities, Jellyfin can direct play more content instead of wasting CPU cycles transcoding files your TV could already handle

The result? More direct play, less buffering, better quality, and a happier Jellyfin server.

Multi-Server Support

• Connect to multiple Jellyfin servers simultaneously
• Unified Library Mode - Browse content from all your servers in a single view
• Seamless cross-server playback
• User Switching & Quick Connect - Improved authentication flow with support for switching between users and Quick Connect

Jellyseerr Integration (Out of Beta! 🎊)

• Full Jellyseerr support with Moonfin plugin integration
  • Official release of the Moonfin Server Plugin — A Jellyfin server plugin that integrates with Moonfin for Tizen for seamless Jellyseerr integration and cross-client settings sync.
• Huge overhaul to Jellyseerr with proper media type and availability badges
• Browse trending and popular content
• Request movies and TV shows directly from your TV
• View and manage your requests with a dedicated "My Requests" row

• Custom Subtitle Rendering - JSON-based subtitle fetching with overlay rendering for Tizen
• Subtitle Customization - Size, position, and additional styling options for subtitles
• Seek Step Customization - Configurable seek intervals in settings
• Media Key Support - Play, pause, fast-forward, rewind, and stop via the Samsung remote media keys

UI & Customization

Performance

• Image Preloading - Smoother carousel transitions with debounced backdrop loading
• Tizen Lifecycle Management - Proper cleanup functions and cache handling in Browse and Settings

Other Improvements

Bug Fixes
