Two independent bugs silenced the digital audio path from Si4684 into the
ADAU1701 even after the FM/DAB tune fix produced a real RF lock:
1. Si4684Driver::configureAfterBoot() wrote PIN_CONFIG_ENABLE (0x0800) as
0x0003, enabling both I2SOUTEN and DACOUTEN. AN649: "only I2SOUTEN or
DACOUTEN can be enabled at a time. If both enabled, only analog audio
output is enabled" — the chip silently fell back to its unused analog
DAC output on every boot. Fixed to 0x8002 (I2SOUTEN + INTBOUTEN),
matching the value hitech95/si468x_dab_receiver's working ALSA codec
driver uses (SI468X_PROP_I2S_ENABLED); I2SOUTEN alone (0x0002) was not
sufficient on this hardware. Also fixed AUDIO_OUTPUT_CONFIG (0x0302),
which was being written with a stray I2S-enable bit that property does
not have (its only real field is bit0 MONO).
2. Even with the chip correctly outputting I2S, the ADAU1701 received only
static. Traced with SIGMA_WRITE_REGISTER_BLOCK live overrides of
SerialInputRegister (0x081F, baked into the compiled SigmaStudio export
at ILP=0/IBP=0): IBP=1 (input data clocked on the opposite BCLK edge)
produced real, recognizable music instead of static on a locked, strong
FM signal — first confirmed end-to-end audio in this project's history.
ILP=1 made it worse and was reverted; IBP=1 kept as a runtime override
in Adau1701Driver::boot().
Remaining noise on top of the music is attributed to antenna quality
(RSSI/SNR fluctuated significantly between retunes of the same station on
the current improvised antenna) — not yet confirmed with a proper antenna.

Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_0178rASQ6ZETPMUamvpoR2KR
- Add docs/si4684-rf-investigation-report.md: full record of the FM/DAB no-lock
investigation (crystal, front-end matching, ANTCAP sweep, continuity, leading
EP solder-defect hypothesis, PCBWay report sent) plus the separate audio
profile NVS bug found and partially fixed this session.
- Fix sigma_i2c_write() (SigmaStudioFW.c): no retry on I2C failure meant a single
transient NACK anywhere in a long safeload burst (EQ apply = ~55 sequential
transactions) aborted the whole sequence. Added a 3-attempt retry.
- Add granular failure logging (AudioService::applyProfileToDsp/persistProfile,
Adau1701Driver::applyMixer/applyEq, NvsAudioProfileStore::saveProfile error
codes) to isolate the remaining NVS-side audio profile save failure.
- Si4684Driver::tuneFm gains an optional ANTCAP argument (default 0 = unchanged
auto-tune behavior) used during this session's front-end matching sweep.

Streaming (main feature this session):
- New WebRadioConfig/WebRadioJson core types, ISecureStore-backed persistence
- New webradio::WebRadioService (thread-safe live config) + GET/POST /api/streaming
- web_radio_stream task now runtime-toggleable (no reboot), no hardcoded URL
- Content-Type diagnostic: warns clearly when a URL is a webpage, not an audio stream
Boot cleanup:
- Removed boot-time auto FM/DAB tune, auto-beep, and the (now-concluded) Si4684
crystal IBIAS/CTUN empirical sweep from main.cpp — tuning/beep are on-demand
via the existing REST API only
Web UI:
- Modernized styling (cards, gradients, toggle switches, light/dark theme)
- New Stream tab wired to /api/streaming
Fixes found via real idf.py build (not just clangd):
- Restored wrongly-removed si4684/Si4684Tuner.hpp include in main.cpp
- Fixed MP3Decode() argument types in web_radio_stream.cpp (unsigned char**/int*)
Quality-gate fixes:
- Host-test stub headers (esp_log.h, freertos/*) so TunerService.cpp's
scanForStation logging/pacing compiles for station_service_test /
integration_service_test instead of running stale binaries
- Added WifiScanner and WebRadioService manual sections; filled in missing
Doxygen docs on BluetoothService, i2s_sdata_probe, test_firmware, Bt1035At
- Ignore clangd's .cache/ index directory
Also includes prior uncommitted work carried in the tree: Wi-Fi/Bluetooth
device scan REST API and UI (WifiScanner, BT scan), SigmaStudio TCP bridge,
and the current ADAU1701 SigmaStudio DSP program export.

Decouple the SigmaStudio RAM download from compiled-in adau1701_program.c:
DRAD v1 blobs in the dsp partition with embedded fallback, POST /api/dsp/program,
and host-tested blob parse/serialize helpers.
