Fix pre-existing player issues: edit upload paths, playlist sync, DPI, console
src/edit_popup.py: pass and reproduce the server-side edited-media layout
('edited_media/<media_id>/') when saving an edit, falling back to the flat
folder when no media id is available, so uploads land where the server expects.
src/get_playlists_v2.py: preserve every server field (audio, muted, description,
id, position, ...) when rewriting playlist items, instead of rebuilding fixed
dicts that silently dropped them. Web-link items keep their original http(s) url
and are never downloaded.
windows/pyi_runtime_hook.py: declare per-monitor DPI awareness before SDL/Kivy
initialise, so on a scaled display the window is not virtualised to a smaller
resolution (which left a black strip and mis-scaled media).
windows/build_win.bat: optional code signing step for PCs with Smart App Control
enabled, driven by KIWY_SIGN_PFX / KIWY_SIGN_PFX_PASSWORD or a local
kiwy_signing.pfx.
windows/build.spec, windows/README_WINDOWS_BUILD.md, windows/development-track.md:
build notes and manifest updates.

### Overnight soak test findings (2026-08-07 morning)
|
||||
|
||||
- **Symptom:** player froze on the last video widget (never advanced past
|
||||
`video_loaded`); heartbeat stopped; 7 leaked `msedge.exe` processes left
|
||||
running in the background.
|
||||
- **Root cause (two compounding bugs in `run_win.py`):**
|
||||
1. **Leaked browser + instant-exit handoff.** A previously leaked Chrome/Edge
|
||||
process held the `.kiosk-profile` lock. The next weblink launch handed
|
||||
the URL to that leaked instance and **exited in ~2s** (`07:04:57` launch →
|
||||
`07:04:59 next_media_called`). The watchdog advanced instantly, so the
|
||||
weblink never showed AND the leaked browser window was never killed →
|
||||
`msedge.exe` processes accumulated overnight.
|
||||
2. **Main-thread freeze.** The focus keeper ran heavy Win32 work
|
||||
(`EnumWindows` + `AttachThreadInput` + `SetForegroundWindow` + `SendInput`)
|
||||
synchronously on the Kivy thread every second. With leaked Edge windows
|
||||
fighting back, this wedged the event loop → video never advanced, heartbeat
|
||||
stopped (`08-07 07:09`).
|
||||
- **Fix (in `run_win.py`, rebuilt 08:23):**
|
||||
1. New `_windows_kill_browsers_on_profile()` — scans `chrome/msedge/chromium`
|
||||
command lines (WMIC, PowerShell fallback), taskkills any browser holding
|
||||
the `.kiosk-profile` lock. Called **before every weblink launch**.
|
||||
2. Watchdog now has `MIN_ALIVE_BEFORE_EARLY_ADVANCE = 8s` — an instant
|
||||
(~2s) handoff exit no longer advances/skips the weblink.
|
||||
3. `_bring_kivy_to_front(async_ok=True)` runs the heavy Win32 bring-to-front
|
||||
on a **background worker thread** guarded by a lock, so the Kivy main
|
||||
thread is never blocked. Synchronous `async_ok=False` still available for
|
||||
explicit transitions.
