Summary

  • Adds an optional frequency field to radios.toml custom stations (e.g. frequency = "91.7 FM")
  • Renders a retro FM/AM frequency dial in the radio playback view, inspired by 1970s Sansui/Marantz stereo
    receivers
  • Green backlit scale with a thin red pointer needle, major + minor tick marks, and a "tuned" fill effect (bright
    left of needle, dim right)
  • Uses Braille dot-matrix rendering to match the existing visualizer aesthetic
  • Dial appears between the seek bar and controls when a station with a frequency is playing
  • Supports both FM (87.5–108 MHz) and AM (530–1700 kHz) bands

How to test

  1. Add a station with a frequency to ~/.config/cliamp/radios.toml:
    [[station]]
    name = "KVRX 91.7 Austin"
    url = "https://streams.kut.org/5020_192.mp3"
    frequency = "91.7 FM"
  2. make build && ./cliamp
  3. Navigate to Radio > Stations > play the station
  4. The dial should appear below the seek bar with a green scale and red needle
  5. Stations without a frequency field should show no dial

Checklist

  • make check passes
  • docs/ and site/index.html updated for user-facing changes

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added a retro-style radio frequency dial to the player interface.
    • Displays FM and AM frequencies with scale markings, labels, and a tuning indicator.
    • Shows station frequency information for supported local, catalog, favorite, and search stations.
    • The dial appears alongside playback controls when frequency information is available.
  • Tests
    • Added coverage for FM and AM frequency parsing and dial rendering, including invalid inputs.

Parse an optional `frequency` field from radios.toml and display a
retro FM/AM dial below the seek bar when a station with a frequency
is playing. Supports both FM and AM bands.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Switch dial to light blue (ANSI bright cyan) for a Pioneer/Marantz
retro look. Needle is now a uniform 3-dot-wide line instead of a
tapering spike. Band fills bright left of needle, dim right.
Height reduced from 5 to 4 rows.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Restyle the frequency dial to match 1970s Sansui/Marantz receivers:
green backlit scale with a thin red pointer line. Adds minor tick
subdivisions between major marks. Fixes needle width to a uniform
2-dot line by clearing adjacent green dots in shared Braille cells.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Radio stations now provide frequency metadata. The UI parses FM and AM frequencies, renders a Braille radio dial, and displays it in compact and full player layouts.

Changes

Radio frequency dial

Layer / File(s) Summary
Station frequency metadata
external/radio/provider.go
Station configuration loads frequency values. Station names can provide FM frequencies. Station tracks attach the result as radio.frequency metadata.
FM and AM dial renderer
ui/radio_dial.go, ui/radio_dial_test.go
The UI parses FM and AM frequencies and renders colored Braille dials with tick marks, labels, needles, and readouts. Tests cover valid and invalid inputs.
Player layout integration
ui/model/view_radio_dial.go, ui/model/view.go
The model renders a dial for active tracks with frequency metadata and adds it to compact and full layouts.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to b58a0

The new radio dial can disrupt compact terminal layouts on narrow panels and may display inconsistent tuning information for some explicit or out-of-range frequency values. These UI correctness issues should be addressed before merging.

Include the radio dial in the compact and full height budgets. A valid radio.frequency adds a six-row dial in both render paths. fixedRows does not include these rows, so the dial can consume rows reserved for the playlist and make the frame exceed the terminal height. The minimal tier does not render the dial.

Make the render tests table-driven and assert the dial geometry.

The three render tests only check empty against non-empty. They do not check the row count or the rendered width, so a width or height regression passes. The codebase favors table-driven tests.

Add cases for a narrow width and for the band edge inputs discussed on ui/radio_dial.go lines 71-73.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

The band heuristic overrides an explicit suffix and out-of-band values still render.

Two cases produce a wrong display:

  • "1200 FM" returns band AM, because the numeric test runs after the suffix test.
  • "150" returns band FM. Line 120 clamps pos to 108.0, but line 266 formats the original value, so the readout shows "150.0 MHz" while the needle rests at the end of the scale. "300 AM" behaves the same way against amMin.

Apply the numeric heuristic only when no suffix is present, and reject a frequency that is outside the band range.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

The width floor can make the dial overflow the panel.

If the caller passes a width below 30, this code renders 30 cells anyway. The only caller passes ui.PanelWidth (ui/model/view_radio_dial.go line 15), and renderSeekBar shows that ui.PanelWidth can be 0 or very small. A dial that is wider than the panel wraps and shifts every section below it.

Return "" instead. The model already drops empty sections, so narrow terminals then omit the dial.

🛠️ Proposed fix

-		width = 30

Extract the shared tick-painting loop.

The major and minor tick loops are identical except for the height. Extract one helper to remove the duplication.

Add the helper next to clampF:

// paintTicks draws vertical tick columns of the given dot height.
func paintTicks(grid []byte, ticks []float64, minF, maxF float64, dotCols, dotRows, needleDot, tickHeight int) {
	for _, t := range ticks {
		tc := int(math.Round(float64(dotCols-1) * (t - minF) / (maxF - minF)))
		if tc < 0 || tc >= dotCols {
			continue
		}
		brightness := byte(cellGreenDim)
		if tc <= needleDot {
			brightness = cellGreen
		}
		for dr := 0; dr < tickHeight && dotRows-1-dr >= 0; dr++ {
			row := dotRows - 1 - dr
			if grid[row*dotCols+tc] < brightness {
				grid[row*dotCols+tc] = brightness
			}
		}
	}

In `@ui/radio_dial.go` around lines 149 - 183, Extract the duplicated tick-column
painting logic into a paintTicks helper near clampF, accepting the grid, tick
values, range, dimensions, needle position, and tick height. Replace the major
and minor tick loops with calls to paintTicks using their respective heights,
preserving existing bounds, brightness, and grid-update behavior.

Extract FM frequency from catalog and favorite station names (e.g.
"WDBM 88.9" or "KEXP 90.3 Seattle, WA") so the dial widget appears
automatically without requiring a manual frequency field in radios.toml.
