Done in f0afcaf. The tray icon tooltip now shows the current song when playing:
Long song titles are truncated to 60 characters to keep the tooltip readable. |
Introduced a new "Now Playing" page to display detailed stream metadata, including artist, title, and stream information. Added a ViewModel to manage metadata and handle Discogs search. Updated project file to include the new page in the build process.
Enhanced BooleanToVisibilityConverter with inversion logic. Added "Now Playing" button to PlayingPage with navigation support to details page. Updated ShellViewModel for page navigation.
Refactored `NavigationService` and `ShellViewModel` to use `ObservableObject` from `CommunityToolkit.Mvvm`, simplifying property change notifications. Added `RelayCommand` attributes for navigation commands in `ShellViewModel`. Updated `AddStation.xaml.cs` to reset navigation stack history after saving. Improved null checks and added debug logging in `NavigationService`. Included `CommunityToolkit.Mvvm` package reference in `Trdo.csproj`. Performed general cleanup and formatting improvements.
Introduced a "Search on Spotify" feature alongside the existing "Search on Discogs" functionality. Updated the UI to include a new button with an SVG icon for Spotify. Added backend logic to handle Spotify searches via the app or web fallback. Included the `spotify.svg` asset in the project.

Internet radio streams often embed track metadata via ICY (Icecast/Shoutcast) protocol. This PR extracts and displays "now playing" information when available.
