8391832c90 fix(vegas): keep plugin data and visuals fresh during Vegas scroll mode (#291)
* fix(vegas): keep plugin data and visuals fresh during Vegas scroll mode

Plugins using ESPN APIs and other data sources were not updating during
Vegas mode because the render loop blocked for 60-600s per iteration,
starving the scheduled update tick. This adds a non-blocking background
thread that runs plugin updates every ~1s during Vegas mode, bridges
update notifications to the stream manager, and clears stale scroll
caches so all three content paths (native, scroll_helper, fallback)
reflect fresh data.

- Add background update tick thread in Vegas coordinator (non-blocking)
- Add _tick_plugin_updates_for_vegas() bridge in display controller
- Fix fallback capture to call update() instead of only update_data()
- Clear scroll_helper.cached_image on update for scroll-based plugins
- Drain background thread on Vegas stop/exit to prevent races

* fix(vegas): address review findings in update pipeline

- Extract _drive_background_updates() helper and call it from both the
  render loop and the static-pause wait loop so plugin data stays fresh
  during static pauses (was skipped by the early `continue`)
- Remove synchronous plugin.update() from the fallback capture path;
  the background update tick already handles API refreshes so the
  content-fetch thread should only call lightweight update_data()
- Use scroll_helper.clear_cache() instead of just clearing cached_image
  so cached_array, total_scroll_width and scroll_position are also reset

7524747e44 Feature/vegas scroll mode (#215)
* feat(display): add Vegas-style continuous scroll mode

Implement an opt-in Vegas ticker mode that composes all enabled plugin
content into a single continuous horizontal scroll. Includes a modular
package (src/vegas_mode/) with double-buffered streaming, 125 FPS
render pipeline using the existing ScrollHelper, live priority
interruption support, and a web UI for configuration with drag-drop
plugin ordering.

* feat(vegas): add three-mode display system (SCROLL, FIXED_SEGMENT, STATIC)

Adds a flexible display mode system for Vegas scroll mode that allows
plugins to control how their content appears in the continuous scroll:

- SCROLL: Content scrolls continuously (multi-item plugins like sports)
- FIXED_SEGMENT: Fixed block that scrolls by (clock, weather)
- STATIC: Scroll pauses, plugin displays, then resumes (alerts)

Changes:
- Add VegasDisplayMode enum to base_plugin.py with backward-compatible
  mapping from legacy get_vegas_content_type()
- Add static pause handling to coordinator with scroll position save/restore
- Add mode-aware content composition to stream_manager
- Add vegas_mode info to /api/v3/plugins/installed endpoint
- Add mode indicators to Vegas settings UI
- Add comprehensive plugin developer documentation

* fix(vegas): improve exception handling and static pause state management

coordinator.py:
- _check_live_priority: use logger.exception for full traceback
- _end_static_pause: guard scroll resume on interruption (stop/live priority)
- _update_static_mode_plugins: log errors instead of silently swallowing

render_pipeline.py:
- compose_scroll_content: use specific exceptions and logger.exception
- render_frame: use specific exceptions and logger.exception
- hot_swap_content: use specific exceptions and logger.exception

- display_controller.py: use logger.exception for Vegas errors with traceback
- base_plugin.py: validate vegas_panel_count as positive integer with warning
- coordinator.py: fix _apply_pending_config to avoid losing concurrent updates
  by clearing _pending_config while holding lock

  (AttributeError, TypeError, ValueError, OSError, RuntimeError) and
  logger.exception for traceback preservation
- api_v3.py: only update vegas_config['enabled'] when key is present in data
  to prevent incorrect disabling when checkbox is omitted

* fix(vegas): improve cycle advancement, logging, and accessibility

- Add advance_cycle() method to StreamManager for clearing buffer between cycles
- Call advance_cycle() in RenderPipeline.start_new_cycle() for fresh content
- Use logger.exception() for interrupt check and static pause errors (full tracebacks)
- Add id="vegas_scroll_label" to h3 for aria-labelledby reference
- Call updatePluginConfig() after rendering plugin list for proper initialization

* fix(vegas): add thread-safety, preserve updates, and improve logging

- display_controller.py: Use logger.exception() for Vegas import errors
- plugin_adapter.py: Add thread-safe cache lock, remove unused exception binding
- stream_manager.py: In-place merge in process_updates() preserves non-updated plugins
- api_v3.py: Change vegas_scroll_enabled default from False to True

* fix(vegas): add debug logging and narrow exception types

- stream_manager.py: Log when get_vegas_display_mode() is unavailable
- stream_manager.py: Narrow exception type from Exception to (AttributeError, TypeError)
- api_v3.py: Log exceptions when reading Vegas display metadata with plugin context

* fix(vegas): fix method call and improve exception logging

- Fix _check_vegas_interrupt() calling nonexistent _check_wifi_status(),
  now correctly calls _check_wifi_status_message()
- Update _refresh_plugin_list() exception handler to use logger.exception()
  with plugin_id and class name for remote debugging

* fix(web): replace complex toggle with standard checkbox for Vegas mode

The Tailwind pseudo-element toggle (after:content-[''], etc.) wasn't
rendering because these classes weren't in the CSS bundle. Replaced
with a simple checkbox that matches other form controls in the template.

* debug(vegas): add detailed logging to _refresh_plugin_list

Track why plugins aren't being found for Vegas scroll:
- Log count of loaded plugins
- Log enabled status for each plugin
- Log content_type and display_mode checks
- Log when plugin_manager lacks loaded_plugins

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(vegas): use correct attribute name for plugin manager

StreamManager and VegasModeCoordinator were checking for
plugin_manager.loaded_plugins but PluginManager stores active
plugins in plugin_manager.plugins. This caused Vegas scroll
to find zero plugins despite plugins being available.

* fix(vegas): convert scroll_speed from px/sec to px/frame correctly

The config scroll_speed is in pixels per second, but ScrollHelper
in frame_based_scrolling mode interprets it as pixels per frame.
Previously this caused the speed to be clamped to max 5.0 regardless
of the configured value.

Now properly converts: pixels_per_frame = scroll_speed * scroll_delay

With defaults (50 px/s, 0.02s delay), this gives 1 px/frame = 50 px/s.

* feat(vegas): add FPS logging every 5 seconds

Logs actual FPS vs target FPS to help diagnose performance issues.
Shows frame count in each 5-second interval.

* fix(vegas): improve plugin content capture reliability

- Call update_data() before capture to ensure fresh plugin data
- Try display() without force_clear first, fallback if TypeError
- Retry capture with force_clear=True if first attempt is blank
- Use histogram-based blank detection instead of point sampling
  (more reliable for content positioned anywhere in frame)

This should help capture content from plugins that don't implement
get_vegas_content() natively.

* fix(vegas): handle callable width/height on display_manager

DisplayManager.width and .height may be methods or properties depending
on the implementation. Use callable() check to call them if needed,
ensuring display_width and display_height are always integers.

Fixes potential TypeError when width/height are methods.

* fix(vegas): use logger.exception for display mode errors

Replace logger.error with logger.exception to capture full stack trace
when get_vegas_display_mode() fails on a plugin.

* fix(vegas): protect plugin list updates with buffer lock

Move assignment of _ordered_plugins and index resets under _buffer_lock
to prevent race conditions with _prefetch_content() which reads these
variables under the same lock.

* fix(vegas): catch all exceptions in get_vegas_display_mode

Broaden exception handling from AttributeError/TypeError to Exception
so any plugin error in get_vegas_display_mode() doesn't abort the
entire plugin list refresh. The loop continues with the default
FIXED_SEGMENT mode.

* fix(vegas): refresh stream manager when config updates

After updating stream_manager.config, force a refresh to pick up changes
to plugin_order, excluded_plugins, and buffer_ahead settings. Also use
logger.exception to capture full stack traces on config update errors.

* debug(vegas): add detailed logging for blank image detection

* feat(vegas): extract full scroll content from plugins using ScrollHelper

Plugins like ledmatrix-stocks and odds-ticker use ScrollHelper with a
cached_image that contains their full scrolling content. Instead of
falling back to single-frame capture, now check for scroll_helper.cached_image
first to get the complete scrolling content for Vegas mode.

* debug(vegas): add comprehensive INFO-level logging for plugin content flow

- Log each plugin being processed with class name
- Log which content methods are tried (native, scroll_helper, fallback)
- Log success/failure of each method with image dimensions
- Log brightness check results for blank image detection
- Add visual separators in logs for easier debugging
- Log plugin list refresh with enabled/excluded status

* feat(vegas): trigger scroll content generation when cache is empty

When a plugin has a scroll_helper but its cached_image is not yet
populated, try to trigger content generation by:
1. Calling _create_scrolling_display() if available (stocks pattern)
2. Calling display(force_clear=True) as a fallback

This allows plugins like stocks to provide their full scroll content
even when Vegas mode starts before the plugin has run its normal
display cycle.

* fix: improve exception handling in plugin_adapter scroll content retrieval

Replace broad except Exception handlers with narrow exception types
(AttributeError, TypeError, ValueError, OSError) and use logger.exception
instead of logger.warning/info to capture full stack traces for better
diagnosability.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: narrow exception handling in coordinator and plugin_adapter

- coordinator.py: Replace broad Exception catch around get_vegas_display_mode()
  with (AttributeError, TypeError) and use logger.exception for stack traces
- plugin_adapter.py: Narrow update_data() exception handler to
  (AttributeError, RuntimeError, OSError) and use logger.exception

* fix: improve Vegas mode robustness and API validation

- display_controller: Guard against None plugin_manager in Vegas init
- coordinator: Restore scrolling state in resume() to match pause()
- api_v3: Validate Vegas numeric fields with range checks and 400 errors
