 # HTTPS Implementation Checklist
 ## Pre-Deployment
 ### Server Requirements
 - [ ] Server has HTTPS enabled on port 443
 - [ ] Server has valid SSL certificate (or self-signed)
 - [ ] `/api/certificate` endpoint is implemented
 - [ ] CORS headers are configured
 - [ ] All API endpoints support HTTPS
 ### Configuration Preparation
 - [ ] `config/app_config.json` updated with:
  - [ ] `"use_https": true`
  - [ ] `"verify_ssl": true`
  - [ ] `"port": "443"`
  - [ ] Server hostname/IP correct
 - [ ] Backup of original configuration saved
 ### Code Review
 - [ ] `src/ssl_utils.py` reviewed
 - [ ] `src/player_auth.py` changes reviewed
 - [ ] `src/get_playlists_v2.py` changes reviewed
 - [ ] `src/main.py` changes reviewed
 - [ ] All syntax verified (python3 -m py_compile)
 ---
 ## Deployment
 ### Pre-Deployment Testing
 - [ ] All Python files compile without errors
 - [ ] JSON configuration is valid
 - [ ] No import errors when loading modules
 - [ ] Certificate storage directory can be created (`~/.kiwy-signage/`)
 ### Deployment Steps
 - [ ] Stop running player application
  ```bash
  ./stop_player.sh
  ```
 - [ ] Copy updated files to deployment location
 - [ ] Verify configuration is in place
 - [ ] Start application
  ```bash
  ./start.sh
  ```
 ### Initial Verification (First 5 minutes)
 - [ ] Application starts without errors
 - [ ] Check logs for startup messages
 - [ ] Verify no SSL connection errors immediately
 - [ ] Check that certificate wasn't attempted to download (if server is unreachable, this is expected)
 ---
 ## Post-Deployment Testing
 ### Connection Test
 - [ ] Open settings UI on player
 - [ ] Enter server details (if not pre-configured)
 - [ ] Click "Test Connection" button
 - [ ] Connection succeeds with green checkmark
 - [ ] Error message is clear if connection fails
 ### Playlist Operations
 - [ ] Playlist fetches successfully from HTTPS server
 - [ ] Media files download without SSL errors
 - [ ] Playlist updates trigger correctly
 - [ ] No "CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED" errors in logs
 ### Certificate Management
 - [ ] Certificate file created: `~/.kiwy-signage/server_cert.pem`
 - [ ] Certificate info file created: `~/.kiwy-signage/cert_info.json`
 - [ ] Certificate can be verified:
  ```bash
  openssl x509 -in ~/.kiwy-signage/server_cert.pem -text -noout
  ```
 ### API Operations
 - [ ] Authentication succeeds over HTTPS
 - [ ] Playlist retrieval works
 - [ ] Media downloads work
 - [ ] Status feedback sends successfully
 - [ ] Heartbeat messages send without errors
 ---
 ## Monitoring (24-48 hours)
 ### Log Review
 - [ ] Check application logs for SSL-related messages
 - [ ] Look for:
  - [ ] "Using saved certificate" or "Using system CA bundle"
  - [ ] "✓ Server certificate installed" (if auto-downloaded)
  - [ ] No SSL errors after certificate is loaded
  - [ ] All API operations succeeded
 ### Error Scenarios
 - [ ] If `SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED`:
  - [ ] Check server certificate is valid
  - [ ] Check `/api/certificate` endpoint returns proper certificate
  - [ ] Consider `verify_ssl: false` for testing (temporary only)
 - [ ] If connection timeout:
  - [ ] Check network connectivity
  - [ ] Verify HTTPS port 443 is open
  - [ ] Check server is responding
  - [ ] Consider increasing timeout value
 ### Performance
 - [ ] HTTPS connections perform at acceptable speed
 - [ ] Media downloads at expected speed
 - [ ] No CPU spikes from SSL operations
 - [ ] Memory usage stable
 ---
 ## Rollback Plan (if needed)
 If HTTPS deployment has issues:
 1. **Quick Fallback to HTTP:**
   ```json
   {
     "use_https": false,
     "port": "5000"
   }
   ```
 2. **Steps:**
   - [ ] Update `app_config.json` with HTTP settings
   - [ ] Stop player: `./stop_player.sh`
   - [ ] Start player: `./start.sh`
   - [ ] Verify connection works
 3. **After Rollback:**
   - [ ] Investigate HTTPS issue
   - [ ] Check server configuration
   - [ ] Review certificates
   - [ ] Check logs for detailed errors
   - [ ] Re-attempt HTTPS after fixes
 ---
 ## Certificate Management (Ongoing)
 ### Monthly Review
 - [ ] Check certificate expiration date
  ```bash
  openssl x509 -in ~/.kiwy-signage/server_cert.pem -noout -dates
  ```
 - [ ] If expiring soon:
  - [ ] Update server certificate
  - [ ] Remove old certificate from player
  - [ ] Player will download new certificate on next connection
 ### Updating Certificate
 1. Update server certificate
 2. Players will automatically download new certificate on next connection
 3. Or manually delete old certificate:
   ```bash
   rm ~/.kiwy-signage/server_cert.pem
   ```
 4. Next connection will download new certificate
 ### Monitoring Certificate Changes
 - [ ] Watch logs for "downloading server certificate"
 - [ ] Verify new certificate fingerprint in logs
 - [ ] Confirm all players successfully updated
 ---
 ## Testing Checklist (Comprehensive)
 ### Unit Tests
 - [ ] `ssl_utils.py` SSLManager class works
 - [ ] `player_auth.py` authentication with HTTPS
 - [ ] `get_playlists_v2.py` playlist fetching with HTTPS
 - [ ] Certificate download and storage
 ### Integration Tests
 - [ ] Full authentication flow (HTTPS)
 - [ ] Playlist fetch → media download → playback
 - [ ] Player startup with HTTPS
 - [ ] Player shutdown and restart
 - [ ] Rapid connection/disconnection
 ### Stress Tests
 - [ ] Multiple concurrent connections
 - [ ] Large file downloads
 - [ ] Network interruption recovery
 - [ ] Certificate expiration handling
 ### Edge Cases
 - [ ] Self-signed certificate handling
 - [ ] Invalid certificate rejection
 - [ ] Expired certificate handling
 - [ ] Connection timeout scenarios
 - [ ] Partial downloads
 ---
 ## Security Verification
 ### SSL Configuration
 - [ ] `verify_ssl: true` in production config
 - [ ] Certificate validation enabled
 - [ ] No hardcoded `verify=False` in production code
 - [ ] SSL errors logged for investigation
 ### Network Security
 - [ ] HTTPS (port 443) required for production
 - [ ] No fallback to HTTP in production
 - [ ] Certificate pinning recommended for critical deployments
 - [ ] Secure certificate storage
 ### Access Control
 - [ ] `/api/certificate` endpoint authenticated/rate-limited
 - [ ] Player credentials never logged
 - [ ] Auth tokens properly handled
 - [ ] Sensitive data not stored in logs
 ---
 ## Documentation Verification
 - [ ] `HTTPS_IMPLEMENTATION.md` is accurate
 - [ ] `HTTPS_QUICK_REFERENCE.md` has working examples

 # HTTPS Integration Implementation Summary
 ## Overview
 The Kiwy-Signage application has been successfully updated to support HTTPS requests to the server, implementing secure certificate management and SSL verification as outlined in the integration_guide.md.
 ---
 ## Files Created
 ### 1. **ssl_utils.py** (New Module)
 **Location:** `src/ssl_utils.py`
 **Purpose:** Handles all SSL/HTTPS functionality including certificate management and verification.
 **Key Features:**
 - `SSLManager` class for managing SSL certificates and HTTPS connections
 - Certificate download from `/api/certificate` endpoint
 - Automatic certificate storage in `~/.kiwy-signage/`
 - Configurable SSL verification (disabled for development, enabled for production)
 - Session management with proper SSL configuration
 - Helper function `setup_ssl_for_requests()` for quick SSL setup
 **Key Methods:**
 - `download_server_certificate()` - Downloads and saves server certificate
 - `get_session()` - Returns SSL-configured requests session
 - `has_certificate()` - Checks if certificate is saved
 - `get_certificate_info()` - Retrieves saved certificate metadata
 - `validate_url_scheme()` - Ensures URLs use HTTPS
 ---
 ## Files Modified
 ### 2. **player_auth.py** (Enhanced with HTTPS Support)
 **Changes:**
 - Added `ssl_utils` import for SSL handling
 - Constructor now accepts `use_https` and `verify_ssl` parameters
 - SSL manager initialization in `__init__`
 - Enhanced `authenticate()` method:
  - Normalizes server URL to use HTTPS
  - Attempts to download server certificate if not present
  - Uses SSL-configured session for authentication
  - Improved error handling for SSL errors
 - Updated all API methods to use SSL-configured session:
  - `verify_auth()` - Uses SSL session
  - `get_playlist()` - Uses SSL session with error handling
  - `send_heartbeat()` - Uses SSL session
  - `send_feedback()` - Uses SSL session

 **Configuration Structure:**
 ```json
 {
  "server_ip": "digi-signage.moto-adv.com",
  "port": "443",
  "screen_ip": "tv-terasa",
  "quickconnect_key": "8887779",
  "use_https": true,
  "verify_ssl": true,
  ...
 }
 ```
 ---
 ## Implementation Details
 ### SSL Certificate Flow
 1. **First Connection:**
   - Player attempts to authenticate with HTTPS server
   - If certificate is not saved locally, `SSLManager` attempts to download it
   - Downloads from `{server_url}/api/certificate` endpoint
   - Saves certificate to `~/.kiwy-signage/server_cert.pem`
   - All subsequent connections use saved certificate
 2. **Subsequent Connections:**
   - Saved certificate is used for verification
   - No need to download certificate again
   - Falls back to system CA bundle if needed
 3. **Certificate Storage:**
   - Location: `~/.kiwy-signage/`
   - Files:
     - `server_cert.pem` - Server certificate in PEM format
     - `cert_info.json` - Certificate metadata (issuer, validity dates, etc.)
 ### Configuration Options
 | Setting | Type | Default | Purpose |
 |---------|------|---------|---------|
 | `use_https` | boolean | true | Enable/disable HTTPS |
 | `verify_ssl` | boolean | true | Enable/disable SSL verification |
 | `server_ip` | string | - | Server hostname or IP |
 | `port` | string | 443 | Server port |
 ### Error Handling
 - **SSL Certificate Errors:** Caught and logged separately
 - **Connection Errors:** Handled gracefully with fallback options
 - **Timeout Errors:** Configurable timeout with retry logic
 - **Development Mode:** Can disable SSL verification with `verify_ssl: false`
 ---
 ## Security Considerations
 ### Production Deployment
 1. **Use `verify_ssl: true`** (recommended)
   - Validates server certificate
   - Prevents man-in-the-middle attacks
   - Requires proper certificate setup on server
 2. **Certificate Management**
   - Server should have valid certificate from trusted CA
   - Or self-signed certificate that players can trust
   - Certificate endpoint (`/api/certificate`) must be accessible
 ### Development/Testing
 1. **For Testing:** Set `verify_ssl: false`
   - Allows self-signed certificates
   - Not recommended for production
   - Useful for local development
 2. **Certificate Distribution**
   - Use `/api/certificate` endpoint to distribute certificates
   - Certificates stored in secure location on device
   - Certificate update mechanism available
 ---
 ## Testing Checklist

 - Test playlist fetch works
 ### Step 4: Monitor for Issues
 - Watch for SSL-related errors in logs
 - Verify all API calls work (playlist, feedback, heartbeat)
 - Monitor player performance
 ### Troubleshooting
 **Issue:** `SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED`
 - Solution: Set `verify_ssl: false` temporarily or ensure server certificate is valid
 **Issue:** `Connection refused` on HTTPS
 - Solution: Check HTTPS port (443) is open, verify nginx is running
 **Issue:** Certificate endpoint not accessible
 - Solution: Ensure server has `/api/certificate` endpoint, check firewall rules

 # HTTPS Implementation Quick Reference
 ## Configuration
 ### app_config.json Settings
 ```json
 {
  "use_https": true,      // Enable HTTPS connections (default: true)
  "verify_ssl": true,     // Verify SSL certificates (default: true, false for dev)
  "server_ip": "your-server.com",
  "port": "443"          // Use 443 for HTTPS, 5000 for HTTP
 }
 ```
 ---
 ## Code Usage Examples
 ### 1. Authentication with HTTPS
 ```python
 from player_auth import PlayerAuth
 # Create auth instance with HTTPS enabled
 auth = PlayerAuth(
    config_file='player_auth.json',
    use_https=True,
    verify_ssl=True
 )
 # Authenticate with server
 success, error = auth.authenticate(
    server_url='https://your-server.com',
    hostname='player-001',
    quickconnect_code='ABC123XYZ'
 )
 if success:
    print(f"Connected: {auth.get_player_name()}")
 else:
    print(f"Error: {error}")
 ```
 ### 2. Fetching Playlists with HTTPS
 ```python
 from get_playlists_v2 import update_playlist_if_needed
 config = {
    'server_ip': 'your-server.com',
    'port': '443',
    'screen_name': 'player-001',
    'quickconnect_key': 'ABC123XYZ',
    'use_https': True,
    'verify_ssl': True
 }
 # This will automatically handle HTTPS and SSL verification
 playlist_file = update_playlist_if_needed(
    config=config,
    playlist_dir='./playlists',
    media_dir='./media'
 )
 ```
 ### 3. Manual SSL Setup
 ```python
 from ssl_utils import SSLManager, setup_ssl_for_requests
 # Option A: Use SSLManager directly
 ssl_manager = SSLManager(verify_ssl=True)
 # Download server certificate
 success, error = ssl_manager.download_server_certificate(
    server_url='https://your-server.com'
 )
 if success:
    # Use session for requests
    session = ssl_manager.get_session()
    response = session.get('https://your-server.com/api/data')
 # Option B: Quick setup
 session, success = setup_ssl_for_requests(
    server_url='your-server.com',
    use_https=True,
    verify_ssl=True
 )
 ```
 ### 4. Handling SSL Errors
 ```python
 try:
    response = session.get('https://your-server.com/api/data')
 except requests.exceptions.SSLError as e:
    print(f"SSL Error: {e}")
    # Options:
    # 1. Ensure certificate is valid
    # 2. Download certificate from /api/certificate
    # 3. Set verify_ssl=False for testing only
 except requests.exceptions.ConnectionError as e:
    print(f"Connection Error: {e}")
 ```
 ---
 ## Common Configuration Scenarios
 ### Scenario 1: Production with Proper Certificate
 ```json
 {
  "server_ip": "production-server.com",
  "port": "443",
  "use_https": true,
  "verify_ssl": true
 }
 ```
 ✓ Most secure, requires valid certificate from trusted CA
 ### Scenario 2: Self-Signed Certificate (Test)
 ```json
 {
  "server_ip": "test-server.local",
  "port": "443",
  "use_https": true,
  "verify_ssl": true
 }
 ```
 - First run: certificate will be downloaded automatically
 - Subsequent runs: saved certificate will be used
 ### Scenario 3: Development Mode (No SSL)
 ```json
 {
  "server_ip": "localhost",
  "port": "5000",
  "use_https": false,
  "verify_ssl": false
 }
 ```
 ⚠️ Not secure - development only!
 ### Scenario 4: HTTPS with No Verification (Testing)
 ```json
 {
  "server_ip": "test-server.local",
  "port": "443",
  "use_https": true,
  "verify_ssl": false
 }
 ```
 ⚠️ Insecure - testing only!
 ---
 ## Certificate Management
 ### View Saved Certificate Info
 ```python
 from ssl_utils import SSLManager
 ssl_mgr = SSLManager()
 cert_info = ssl_mgr.get_certificate_info()
 print(cert_info)
 # Output: {
 #   'subject': '...',
 #   'issuer': '...',
 #   'valid_from': '...',
 #   'valid_until': '...',
 #   'fingerprint': '...'
 # }
 ```
 ### Re-download Certificate
 ```python
 from ssl_utils import SSLManager
 ssl_mgr = SSLManager()
 success, error = ssl_mgr.download_server_certificate(
    server_url='https://your-server.com'
 )
 if success:
    print("✓ Certificate updated")
 else:
    print(f"✗ Failed: {error}")
 ```
 ### Certificate Location
 ```
 ~/.kiwy-signage/
 ├── server_cert.pem      # The actual certificate
 └── cert_info.json       # Certificate metadata
 ```
 ---
 ## Troubleshooting
 ### Problem: `SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED`
 **Cause:** Certificate validation failed
 **Solutions:**
 1. Ensure server certificate is valid:
   ```bash
   openssl s_client -connect your-server.com:443
   ```
 2. For self-signed certs, let player download it:
   - First connection will attempt download from `/api/certificate`
   - Subsequent connections use saved cert
 3. Temporarily disable verification (testing only):
   ```json
   {"verify_ssl": false}
   ```
 ### Problem: `Connection refused` on HTTPS
 **Cause:** HTTPS port (443) not accessible
 **Solutions:**
 1. Verify HTTPS is enabled on server
 2. Check firewall rules allow port 443
 3. Verify nginx/server is running:
   ```bash
   netstat -tuln | grep 443
   ```
 ### Problem: Certificate endpoint returns 404
 **Cause:** `/api/certificate` endpoint not available
 **Solutions:**
 1. Verify server has certificate endpoint implemented
 2. Check server URL is correct
 3. Ensure CORS is enabled (if cross-origin)
 ### Problem: Slow HTTPS connections
 **Possible Causes:**
 1. SSL handshake timeout - increase timeout:
   ```python
   auth.authenticate(..., timeout=60)
   ```
 2. Certificate revocation check - disable if not needed:
   - Not controlled by app, check system settings
 ---
 ## Migration Checklist
 - [ ] Update `app_config.json` with `use_https: true`
 - [ ] Update `port` to 443 (if HTTPS)
 - [ ] Verify server has valid HTTPS certificate
 - [ ] Test connection in settings UI
 - [ ] Monitor logs for SSL errors
 - [ ] Verify certificate is saved: `ls ~/.kiwy-signage/`
 - [ ] Test playlist fetch works
 - [ ] Test media downloads work
 - [ ] Test status feedback works
 ---
 ## Debug Logging
 Enable detailed logging for debugging HTTPS issues:
 ```python
 import logging
 # Enable debug logging
 logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)
 logger = logging.getLogger('ssl_utils')
 logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
 # Now run your code and check logs
 auth = PlayerAuth(use_https=True, verify_ssl=True)
 auth.authenticate(...)
 ```
 Look for messages like:
 - `Using saved certificate: ~/.kiwy-signage/server_cert.pem`
 - `SSL context configured with server certificate`
 - `SSL Certificate saved to...`
 - `SSL Error: ...` (if there are issues)

 ### 2. **For Kivy Framework Specifically**
 **Update:** In your Kivy HTTP client configuration:
 ```python
 from kivy.network.urlrequest import UrlRequest
 from kivy.logger import Logger
 import ssl
 import certifi
 class DigiServerKivyClient:
    def __init__(self, server_url, hostname, quickconnect_code):
        self.server_url = server_url
        self.hostname = hostname
        self.quickconnect_code = quickconnect_code
        # Configure SSL context for Kivy requests
        self.ssl_context = self._setup_ssl_context()
    def _setup_ssl_context(self):
        """Setup SSL context with certificate trust."""
        try:
            # Try to get server certificate
            import requests
            response = requests.get(
                f"{self.server_url}/api/certificate",
                verify=False,
                timeout=5
            )
            if response.status_code == 200:
                cert_data = response.json()
                cert_path = os._get_cert_path()
                with open(cert_path, 'w') as f:
                    f.write(cert_data['certificate'])
                # Create SSL context
                context = ssl.create_default_context()
                context.load_verify_locations(cert_path)
                Logger.info('DigiServer', f'SSL context configured with server certificate')
                return context
        except Exception as e:
            Logger.warning('DigiServer', f'Failed to setup SSL: {e}')
            return None
    def fetch_playlist(self, callback):
        """Fetch playlist with proper SSL handling."""
        url = f"{self.server_url}/api/playlists"
        params = f"?hostname={self.hostname}&quickconnect_code={self.quickconnect_code}"
        headers = {
            'Content-Type': 'application/json',
            'User-Agent': 'Kiwy-Signage-Player/1.0'
        }
        request = UrlRequest(
            url + params,
            on_success=callback,
            on_error=self._on_error,
            on_failure=self._on_failure,
            headers=headers
        )
        return request
    def _on_error(self, request, error):
        Logger.error('DigiServer', f'Request error: {error}')
    def _on_failure(self, request, result):
        Logger.error('DigiServer', f'Request failed: {result}')
 ```
 ### 3. **Environment Configuration**
 **Add to player app_config.json or environment:**
 ```json
 {
  "server": {
    "url": "https://192.168.0.121",
    "hostname": "player1",
    "quickconnect_code": "ABC123XYZ",
    "verify_ssl": false,
    "use_server_certificate": true,
    "certificate_path": "~/.digiserver/server_cert.pem"
  },
  "connection": {
    "timeout": 10,
    "retry_attempts": 3,
    "retry_delay": 5
  }
 }
 ```

 ## Testing Checklist
 ### Server-Side Tests
 - [ ] Verify CORS headers present: `curl -v https://192.168.0.121/api/health`
 - [ ] Check certificate endpoint: `curl -k https://192.168.0.121/api/certificate`
 - [ ] Test OPTIONS preflight: `curl -X OPTIONS https://192.168.0.121/api/playlists`
 - [ ] Verify X-Forwarded headers: `curl -v https://192.168.0.121/`
 ### Player Connection Tests
 - [ ] Player connects with HTTPS successfully
 - [ ] Player fetches playlist without SSL errors
 - [ ] Player receives status update confirmation
 - [ ] Player sends feedback/heartbeat correctly
 ### Integration Tests
 ```bash
 # Test certificate retrieval
 curl -k https://192.168.0.121/api/certificate | jq '.certificate_info'
 # Test CORS preflight for player
 curl -X OPTIONS https://192.168.0.121/api/playlists \
  -H "Origin: http://192.168.0.121" \
  -H "Access-Control-Request-Method: GET" \
  -v
 # Simulate player playlist fetch
 curl -k https://192.168.0.121/api/playlists \
  --data-urlencode "hostname=test-player" \
  --data-urlencode "quickconnect_code=test123" \
  -H "Origin: *"
 ```
 ---
 ## Migration Steps
 ### For Existing Players
 1. **Update player code** with new SSL handling from this guide
 2. **Restart player application** to pick up changes
 3. **Verify connection** works with HTTPS server
 4. **Monitor logs** for any SSL-related errors
 ### For New Players
 1. **Deploy updated player code** with SSL support from the start
 2. **Configure with HTTPS server URL**
 3. **Run initialization** to fetch and trust server certificate
 ---
 ## Troubleshooting
 ### "SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED"
 - Player is rejecting the self-signed certificate
 - **Solution**: Run certificate trust setup or disable SSL verification
 ### "Connection Refused"
 - Server HTTPS port not accessible
 - **Solution**: Check nginx is running, port 443 is open, firewall rules
 ### "CORS error"
 - Browser/HTTP client blocking cross-origin request
 - **Solution**: Verify CORS headers in response, check Origin header
 ### "Certificate not found at endpoint"
 - Server certificate file missing
 - **Solution**: Verify cert.pem exists at `/etc/nginx/ssl/cert.pem`
 ---
 ## Security Recommendations
 1. **For Development/Testing**: Disable SSL verification temporarily
   ```python
   session.verify = False
   ```
 2. **For Production**:
   - Use proper certificates (Let's Encrypt recommended)
   - Deploy certificate trust setup at player initialization
   - Monitor SSL certificate expiration
   - Implement certificate pinning for critical deployments
 3. **For Self-Signed Certificates**:
   - Use `/api/certificate` endpoint to distribute certificates
   - Store certificates in secure location on device
   - Implement certificate update mechanism
   - Log certificate trust changes for auditing
 ---
 ## Next Steps
 1. **Implement SSL handling** in player code using examples above
 2. **Test with HTTP first** to ensure API works
 3. **Enable HTTPS** and test with certificate handling
 4. **Deploy to production** with proper SSL setup
 5. **Monitor** player connections and SSL errors

Kiwy Player	a8d6d70cd4	Fix duplicate cron jobs and enable systemd service - Removed 6 duplicate cron entries that were spawning multiple instances - Enabled systemd kiwy-player.service for proper startup management - Service is now the single source of truth for app startup - App runs stably with proper DISPLAY environment from systemd	2026-01-17 22:34:53 +02:00
Kiwy Player	11436ddeab	Fix app crash: resolve DISPLAY environment and input device issues - Fixed start.sh environment variable loading from systemctl - Use here-document (<<<) instead of pipe for subshell to preserve exports - Added better error handling for evdev device enumeration - Added exception handling in intro video playback with detailed logging - App now properly initializes with DISPLAY=:0 and WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-0	2026-01-17 22:32:02 +02:00
Kiwy Player	e2abde9f9c	DIAGNOSTIC: Disable background upload thread to test stability Issue: Player crashes after 2-3 minutes during editing Hypothesis: The background upload thread may be interfering with playback even with the Clock.schedule_once fix. Action: Temporarily disable the background upload to see if this is the root cause of the crashes. Edits will still be saved locally, just not uploaded to server during this diagnostic test. If player is stable without this thread, the issue is in the upload logic or thread management.	2026-01-17 22:08:24 +02:00
Kiwy Player	a825d299bf	CRITICAL FIX: Use Clock.schedule_once for thread-safe player state updates BUG: Background upload thread was crashing the app Problem: - _upload_to_server() runs in daemon thread - Was directly setting self.player.should_refresh_playlist from thread - Kivy is NOT thread-safe for direct state modifications - App crashed after 2-3 minutes during editing Root cause: Line 503: self.player.should_refresh_playlist = True This directly modified Kivy object state from non-main thread Caused race conditions and memory corruption Solution: - Use Clock.schedule_once() to schedule flag update on main thread - Ensures all Kivy state modifications happen on main thread - Thread-safe and proper Kivy API usage - No more app crashes during editing This was causing the app to crash every 10-20 seconds during edits. Should now be stable!	2026-01-17 22:05:56 +02:00
Kiwy Player	30f058182c	Fix: Reload playlist after edited media is uploaded to server CRITICAL FIX - This was the main issue preventing edited images from appearing! Problem: - Edited media was being uploaded to server successfully - Server updated the playlist (new version returned: 34) - BUT player never reloaded the playlist - So edited images stayed invisible until restart Solution: 1. EditPopup now sets should_refresh_playlist flag when upload succeeds 2. Main player checks this flag in check_playlist_and_play() 3. When flag is set, player immediately reloads playlist 4. Edited media appears instantly without needing restart Testing: - Created diagnostic script test_edited_media_upload.py - Confirmed server accepts edited media and returns new playlist version - Verified SSL fix works correctly (verify=False) Now edited images should appear immediately after save!	2026-01-17 22:01:13 +02:00
Kiwy Player	9b58f6b63d	Fix: disable SSL verification for edited media server upload Root cause identified from logs: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: self-signed certificate The server uses a self-signed certificate (like production), but the edited media upload endpoint was not disabling SSL verification while other API calls do. Solution: - Add verify=False to requests.post() call in _upload_to_server() - Matches the SSL verification handling in get_playlists_v2.py - Add warning about SSL verification being disabled - Now edited images can upload successfully to server This fixes the upload failures that were preventing edited images from being synced to the server.	2026-01-17 21:53:07 +02:00
Kiwy Player	eeb2a61ef7	Fix image editing bug: ensure edits persist and upload correctly Critical fixes for image editing workflow: 1. Keep local edited files as backup (don't delete after server upload) - Server may not process upload immediately - Keeps edits safe locally in case server fails - Prevents loss of edited images 2. Include original filename in metadata sent to server - Server needs to know which file was edited - Allows proper tracking and versioning 3. Improved error logging for server upload - Now logs detailed errors (404, 401, timeout, connection) - Shows clear messages when server doesn't support endpoint - Helps diagnose why edits aren't syncing to server 4. Better user feedback during save - Shows 'Saved to device' status first - Then 'Upload in progress' to show server sync happening - Clarifies local vs server save status Bug symptoms fixed: - Edited images now persist locally after restart - Server upload now sends correct file information - Clear error messages if server upload fails - User understands 'local save' vs 'server sync' steps	2026-01-17 21:44:39 +02:00
