Deep-review round 3 of bug hunt 2026-09.
- The YouTube and Plex progress bodies are bounded by POSITION_MAX_S (the int4 position columns): a
finite position of 2^31 or more was a DataError, i.e. a 500 — the sibling of round 2's non-finite
fix.
- plex/stream.py promised "a periodic reaper", but reap_idle ran only inside the NEXT session
request: after the last playback an abandoned session (its ffmpeg still working, its directory a
whole segmented copy of the film) lived until someone pressed play again. A lifespan task reaps
every 60 s.
- Tests for what round 2 left untested: the 422's body keeps the list shape the UI localizes, and
stream_session refuses non-finite start/aoff.
The JSON parser under FastAPI accepts `Infinity`/`NaN`, and both progress checkpoints truncate the
position with `int()` — a hand-written checkpoint came back as a 500 with a traceback. Their bodies
now refuse non-finite floats, and the app's validation handler — FastAPI's own shape — echoes a
non-finite input by name: the default one failed to serialise its own error (JSON has no NaN), which
was a 500 by another route. Sibling of the subtitle routes' non-finite query parameters.
