+ *
+ * Why it exists: the living-room client (Jellyfin Desktop on danklivingroom)
+ * renders this server-served web app at 3840x2160 with no client-side scaling,
+ * so 14 px body text lands on a big panel viewed from three metres. `zoom` on

+ * measures layout px, so card grids re-flow to fewer, larger columns instead of
+ * overflowing.
+ *
+ * Adoption is per device, not global: Display Settings -> Theme ->
+ * "Media Center" on the screen that wants it. That is the point — a phone
+ * browser on the same server must not get a 1.75x interface.
+ *
+ * Change the size by editing the single number. 1.5 is mild, 1.75 is the

+## Big-screen theme (the TV)
+
+`dankserver/jellyfin/theme/wmc/theme.css` is repo-owned and bind-mounted over the
+image's **Media Center** theme slot (the `Volume=` line in
+`dankserver/jellyfin/quadlet/jellyfin.container`). It exists for
+`danklivingroom`, which renders this server-served web app at 3840×2160 with no
+client-side scaling, so 14 px text arrives on a panel read from three metres.
+
+The file is four rules, and its first line is the design:
+`@import url("../dark/theme.css")` pulls in the **live upstream** dark palette, so
+the repo never vendors a CSS snapshot and a Jellyfin image bump cannot strand one.
+That works because jellyfin-web applies a theme as
+`<link rel="stylesheet" href="themes/<id>/theme.css">` — a relative URL resolved
+against the CSS file, not the document. The size lives in one number:
+`--dank-big-screen-zoom` (1.75 ≈ three metres; 1.5 mild, 2.0 projector). `zoom` on
+the root element is the right lever: the card-grid code measures layout pixels, so
+fewer, larger columns are computed rather than overflow produced.
+
+- **Adoption is per device, and it stays that way.** The theme a client renders
+  comes from its own settings (localStorage first), so there is no server-side
+  "everyone gets the big UI" knob. On the screen that wants it:
+  **Display Settings → Theme → Media Center.** That is also the honest label —
+  the dropdown names are compiled into the bundle, so a "Big Screen" entry will
+  never appear; do not go looking for one.
+- The mount is `:ro` and the app only fetches the file, so the failure mode of a
+  stale `@import` target is slightly wrong colors, never a dead web app.
+- **Editing the CSS needs no restart.** The bind hands out the host file's live
+  bytes, so a changed zoom number is on screen at the next page load. The planner
+  agrees by construction: only `dankserver/<svc>/quadlet/**` maps to a service, so
+  a `theme/**`-only commit plans nothing — that is correct, not a gap to "fix",
+  because restarting a media server for a font size is the wrong trade. Only the
+  first deploy of the `Volume=` line restarts anything.
+- **Rollback is one line:** drop the `Volume=` and redeploy; nothing in the
+  database records the theme, so no cleanup follows.
