Optimized the timeout after stream reconnection to make the pause/unpause
experience more responsive. The 200ms delay is sufficient for the browser
to clear buffers and start the fresh stream while minimizing perceived lag.
- Detect pauses longer than 10 seconds across all player modes
- Intercept 'playing' event to stop stale buffered audio
- Force stream reconnect to get live audio after long pause
- Reset and reinitialize spectrum analyzer during reconnect
- Prevent 'Now Playing' updates while stream is paused
- Move spectrum-analyzer.lisp to parenscript/ directory
- Update all documentation dates to 2025-12-06
- Add comprehensive project statistics (408 commits, 9,300 LOC)
- Add Phase 9 (Visual Audio Features) to project history
Fixes issue where resuming playback after a long pause would play
old buffered audio instead of the current live stream. The fix uses
the 'playing' event to detect when stale audio starts and immediately
stops it, then reconnects to get fresh stream data.
All player modes updated: main player, front page, popout, and frame player.
- Reduced Icecast burst-size from 64KB to 8KB to minimize buffer accumulation
- Fixed spectrum analyzer to only create MediaElementSource once
- Added resetSpectrumAnalyzer() function to allow reconnection
- Prevent now-playing info updates when stream is paused across all players:
* Player page
* Front page
* Pop-out player
* Frame player
* Admin page
- After pause >10s, reconnect stream and reinitialize spectrum analyzer
- Preserves spectrum analyzer functionality after pause/unpause
- Eliminates stuttering and buffer accumulation issues
- Implement Web Audio API-based spectrum analyzer with green gradient bars
- Add spectrum analyzer to front page and persistent player content frames
- Support cross-frame audio element access for frameset mode
- Add CORS headers to Icecast configuration for Web Audio API
- Serve Parenscript-generated JavaScript dynamically via API endpoint
