Audio/video files (e.g.
.wav) were being read as UTF-8 text and dumped into a<pre>tag, rendering as garbled binary content. Now they play back using native HTML5 media elements.Changes
electron/main/fileReader.ts— Media file types now resolve with the file path (same as PDF) instead of falling through tofs.readFileSync(filePath, 'utf-8')src/components/Folder/index.tsx— Route media files throughread-file-dataurlto get a data URL, then render<audio controls>or<video controls>accordingly. Extension lists extracted as module-level constants (AUDIO_EXTENSIONS,VIDEO_EXTENSIONS,MEDIA_EXTENSIONS) to avoid triple duplication.test/unit/electron/main/fileReader.test.ts— Tests for media extension classificationSupported formats
Follows the existing PDF pattern:
openFile()returns the file path → frontend callsread-file-dataurlto convert to a data URL → element renders withsrc={dataUrl}.Original prompt
