-### UI / Player
+### Features
 
-- Square the vinyl stage (`1:0.85` → `1:1`) and pin the tonearm to `height: 36%` instead of `aspect-ratio: 1` so its vertical span tracks the stage on resize. Refines the geometry shipped in v0.2.2. ([d27484a](https://git.dolgolyov-family.by/alexei.dolgolyov/media-player-server/commit/d27484a))
-- Brighten the tonearm SVG: lighter pivot/arm gradient stops, thicker stroke widths, stronger cartridge highlight. ([d27484a](https://git.dolgolyov-family.by/alexei.dolgolyov/media-player-server/commit/d27484a))
-- Tilt the sleeve `-2deg` so it reads as resting on the disc rather than rectilinearly composed. ([d27484a](https://git.dolgolyov-family.by/alexei.dolgolyov/media-player-server/commit/d27484a))
+- **Displays — DDC/CI picture controls:** Monitor cards now expose contrast (slider, same editorial copper treatment as brightness) plus a new "PICTURE TUNING" section with input source, color preset, and picture mode pickers built on the IconSelect widget — HDMI/DisplayPort/DVI/VGA/USB-C glyphs for inputs, thermometer for color temperatures, per-mode icons (movie reel, gamepad, ball, etc.) for picture modes. Backend probes DDC/CI capabilities per monitor at enumeration time and exposes `*_supported` flags so the UI hides rows the hardware doesn't advertise. New endpoints: `POST /api/display/{contrast,input_source,color_preset,picture_mode}/{id}`. Picture mode uses raw VCP `0xDC` with MCCS-spec labels and vendor-friendly fallbacks. 14 new i18n keys per locale (en/ru). ([57fdeb7](https://git.dolgolyov-family.by/alexei.dolgolyov/media-player-server/commit/57fdeb7))
 
 ### Bug Fixes
 
-- **Displays:** keep the primary-display star visible on long monitor names. Move `overflow: hidden` + ellipsis off the parent flex container onto a new inner span, and add `flex-shrink: 0` to the badge so the favourite indicator no longer gets clipped when the model name truncates. ([372e4eb](https://git.dolgolyov-family.by/alexei.dolgolyov/media-player-server/commit/372e4eb))
+- **Displays — verify DDC/CI writes before reporting success:** DDC/CI writes are fire-and-forget at the protocol level — a successful send does not mean the monitor honored the value. A new `_verify_after_set` helper polls readback after every write and reports `{success: false}` when the monitor silently dropped it (common on LG ultrawides for VCP codes whose registers exist but whose feature isn't really implemented in firmware). Wired into `set_contrast`, `set_input_source`, `set_color_preset`, `set_picture_mode`; input source uses a longer settle window since switching can briefly disrupt the DDC/CI link. Picture mode (VCP `0xDC`) additionally requires the capability string to declare supported codes under `cmds[0xDC]` — without that declaration we treat the feature as unsupported even when reads succeed (the LG case where reads return a stuck value and every write is silently ignored). ([d1f621f](https://git.dolgolyov-family.by/alexei.dolgolyov/media-player-server/commit/d1f621f))

+### Development / Internal
+
+#### Chores
+
+- **`restart-server.ps1` — installer vs dev launches:** Previously only killed processes named `media-server`, silently missing the installer-bundled process (which runs as plain `python.exe` via `media-server.bat`). The script now kills whatever currently owns the listen port regardless of process name, adds `-Mode auto|dev|installer` with auto-detection based on whether the installer launcher exists in `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Media Server`, verifies the port is listening after start, and merges registry PATH so newly-installed dev tools are visible.
