Orbit TV 0.55.0 to 0.57.0 verification

A cleaner guide, and real programme artwork behind the channel logo.

Changed

• 0.55: finished programmes aren't drawn, what's on now fills to the start of the row, no empty blocks, no time line, an arrow on shows running past the edge. Paul confirmed this looks right.
• 0.56: drawn scenes for ToonZ, Evidence, Orbit X and Rewind. Paul found them off brand, and they were never installed. They're no longer shown.
• 0.57: while tuning, and in the guide's picture until the first frame, the app shows the programme's real artwork from Emby, dimmed, with the channel logo on top. It tries the show's backdrop, then the programme's own. With none, it shows plain navy with the logo. Pictures are cached on the box, at most 150 files, and a show's picture is fetched once. Requests use the same fixed provider address and no redirects.

Checked

• assembleDebug, testDebugUnitTest and lintDebug pass; 239 tests, 0 failures. Tests cover the order pictures are tried, failures, bad IDs, one fetch per show and the cache limit.
• APK signature verified with apksigner.

Not checked

• Not yet run on the box. Whether Paul's provider has backdrops for his shows, how they look dimmed, and how quickly they appear can only be seen there.
• Old channel backgrounds remain in the app but are mostly unused. Removing them is a later tidy.
