Instead of a full-bleed banner, inset it with a margin and rounded corners so it reads as a
contained card; the avatar overlaps its bottom-left. Airier and more designed than edge-to-edge.
- Move the channel stats (subscribers / videos / views / joined) onto one meta line beside the
handle under the name, dropping the separate stats row.
- Cap the banner at 150px tall so it no longer dominates the page; the wide YouTube-style crop
is kept. Net: the video grid starts much higher.
Subscribers and Channel-priority sorts are meaningless when the feed is scoped to one channel
(both are constant across its videos), so hide them there via a channelScoped flag on Feed.
The main feed keeps all sorts.
The stored bannerExternalUrl is the full 16:9 banner template at a low default size (512x288),
so object-contain showed the whole padded image tiny and centered. Now request a crisp wide
version (=w1707) and object-cover the desktop safe-area band (centre 2560x423, ~6:1) at full
width — matching YouTube's banner crop.
- F5 on a channel page kept bouncing to the feed — the App init dropped history.state._chan
like the (intentionally non-replayed) YouTube search. Now channelView restores from _chan on
load and the stamp preserves it, so a reload stays on the channel page.
- The banner was stretched/cropped (bg-cover). Render it as an <img object-contain> with a
capped height, letterboxed on the surface colour, so its real aspect ratio is kept.
- The round avatar's top was clipped by the banner: the banner's position:relative container
painted above the static identity row. Give that row relative z-10 so the overlapping avatar
sits on top.
Refetch the channel detail after the auto-explore ingest so `explored` flips true and the
"Exploring" badge appears immediately — the GET that drove the first render predated the
explore that just created the ExploredChannel row.
Frontend for the channel-explore feature:
- ChannelPage: banner/avatar/stats header, Subscribe/unsubscribe, an "exploring" badge
while browsing an un-subscribed channel, Videos/About tabs. Reuses Feed scoped to the
channel (scope=all + source=all so the per-user ephemeral videos show). Auto-ingests
recent uploads on first visit (background, with a loading note) + "Load more from
YouTube" to page deeper; skipped for demo / already-subscribed channels.
- App: openChannel/closeChannel as a Back-aware sub-view (history.state._chan, mirrors the
YT-search _yt pattern); ChannelPage takes over the content column, nav rail stays.
- ChannelLink/cards/player: the channel name now opens our channel page (onChannelFilter →
onOpenChannel); the in-card "only this channel" filter button is dropped (the page
subsumes it). PlayerModal channel-name wiring follows in the next commit.
- api: channelDetail + exploreChannel; ChannelDetail/ExploreResult types.
- i18n EN/HU/DE: channel namespace, explore_cleanup scheduler labels, explore config group,
channels_explore quota label.
