Android Auto no longer copies the launcher icon as placeholder art; it rotates through the same 4 on-brand station_art assets the phone UI already uses, keyed by the same per-station hash for visual parity. Malformed or unusable favicon URLs (including a Dart Uri quirk where 'http://' reports hasAuthority=true with an empty host) now fail the validity gate instead of being handed to the OS media browser as-is. Browsable items also show codec/bitrate as a subtitle when known.
