Upgrade mode-3's 10-bit/HDR branch from "route to software libx264" (BUG 1's
behaviour) to a full-GPU pipeline: VAAPI decode → OpenCL tonemap (hable,
HDR10/HLG → bt709 SDR nv12) → h264_vaapi. Gen 9.5 (UHD 630) can't tonemap in
the VAAPI VPP (tonemap_vaapi fails), so OpenCL is the only HW route — proven on
the prod iGPU at ~4.2x realtime, ~1 CPU core.
- stream.py: `_select_encode` returns (hw, tonemap); a 10-bit/HDR HW-decodable
source picks the tonemap graph when the OpenCL runtime is present, else drops
to software. `_opencl_present` gates on a registered ICD. `_venc_opts` /
`_hwaccel_in_opts` gain the tonemap variant (named vaapi+opencl devices,
`-filter_hw_device ocl`, hwmap→tonemap_opencl→hwmap reverse). `_want_hw` kept
as the hw-half wrapper. The runtime HW→SW fallback still backstops a session
that emits no segment.
- Dockerfile: add the Intel NEO OpenCL runtime (intel-opencl-icd). It was removed
from Debian trixie, so it's pulled from bookworm (22.43 still supports Gen 9.5;
the .deb runs on the trixie base — verified live). Harmless without /dev/dri.
- route + FE: thread `tonemap` through the session response; the stats overlay
mode row reads "transcode · GPU · HDR→SDR" for the tonemap path.
- tests: tonemap command branch, the (hw, tonemap) selection matrix (auto/on ×
8-bit/10-bit × opencl), start_session tonemap wiring, and the fmtMode tag.
A 10-bit/HDR HEVC source (e.g. an HDR10 x265 file) died at scale_vaapi=format=nv12
on the UHD 630 (Gen 9.5 VPP: "VAProfile not supported"); ffmpeg produced 0 segments
and the item never played, with no fallback — a retry just re-picked the failing HW
path. An 8-bit HEVC and the same file on libx264 both work.
Two defenses:
- `_want_hw` auto mode now also gates on an 8-bit-SDR source via a new
`_probe_video_hwsafe` ffprobe (bit depth from pix_fmt/bits_per_raw_sample, HDR from
color_transfer) — a 10-bit/HDR source takes the software libx264 path, which
downconverts to yuv420p cleanly. The Plex mirror stores no bit-depth signal, so this
is probed at session start. "on" still trusts the admin and skips the gate.
- `start_session` adds a runtime HW→SW fallback: a HW session that emits no first
segment respawns on libx264 and reports hw=False (the route/stats overlay honestly
show CPU). `wait_for` gained an optional `proc` so a dead ffmpeg fails fast instead
of burning the 25s budget before the fallback fires.
Tests: TestProbeVideoHwsafe (parsing + probe-failure-assumes-safe), the 10-bit auto
gate + "on" skip in TestWantHw, and the no-segment HW→SW respawn in
TestTranscodeStartSession. Backend lane green.
The runtime image ships ffmpeg with h264_vaapi/libva2 but no VA driver, so
h264_vaapi can't initialise and a Plex transcode silently falls back to
libx264. Add the iHD driver (intel-media-va-driver) so the UHD 630 iGPU can
hardware-encode once /dev/dri is passed into LXC 118 (host + compose side,
tracked in siftlode-ops). Harmless where no render node is present.
Eight verified findings from the sprint deep-review:
- Transcode cap: _enforce_cap now counts only transcode sessions, so a
live remux (stream-copy) stream can no longer be LRU-evicted mid-play —
matching the config comment + the HU/EN Config hint that promise remux
is uncapped.
- Player Back: the browser/mouse Back interceptor (BackClose) now also
mounts for the stats overlay and up-next card, so Back closes them first
instead of ejecting the whole player (keyboard/Esc already did).
- Honest cold-start: loadSession clears sessionIsTranscode up front, so a
transcode->direct/remux switch no longer flashes a stale "Preparing
stream..." during the session request.
- Stats overlay a11y: the close (X) buttons in the stats, help and info
overlays now read as "Close"/"Bezaras" (new plex.player.close key), not
"Back"; dropped aria-live from the per-second stat grid so a screen
reader is not flooded with telemetry.
Tests: route-level transcode routing (transcode item -> HLS re-encode
session, remux stays copy, direct opens none); start_session threading the
preset/crf/max_height knobs + hw/preexec into the ffmpeg argv; UpNextCard
countdown auto-advance, Play-now, Cancel and the S?-E? heading fallback.
Also brings UpNextCard.tsx / plexStats.ts / plexStats.test.ts to prettier.
Surface the transcode session's runtime facts in the player. The session
response's transcode/hw flags now thread through: the stats overlay's mode row
reads "transcode · GPU" (VAAPI) or "transcode · CPU" (libx264) — the at-a-glance
confirmation of which S1 path engaged — and the initial-load overlay says
"Preparing stream…" instead of "Loading…" for a transcode session, since its
first segment is genuinely slower than a remux and shouldn't read as a hang.
fmtMode (pure, unit-tested) appends the encoder only for a transcode with a known
encoder. i18n HU/EN for the new preparing label. Browser-UAT'd on the XviD
fixture: mode row reads "transcode · CPU" live (software, no render node here).
The software-fallback re-encode now runs deprioritized and admin-configurable.
The SW transcode ffmpeg child is niced (preexec_fn → os.nice, applied per-child
because the Popen lives in the long-lived API process, which must NOT itself be
niced — unlike the download worker's whole-process _deprioritize) so a CPU-bound
re-encode can't starve request handling or playback; the VAAPI path needs none of
it.
New sysconfig knobs (plex group, rendered on the admin Configuration page, i18n
HU/EN): plex_transcode_hw (auto/on/off, layered onto _want_hw), plex_transcode_
preset, plex_transcode_crf, plex_transcode_max_height (software-only downscale-to
cap; the GPU path encodes at source resolution). plex_max_transcodes stays the
concurrency cap (comment corrected — the fallback is shipped, not "later").
pytest extends the command-builder + _want_hw coverage (preset/crf/max_height
plumbing, the on/off/auto policy). Browser-UAT'd: max_height=240 drops the live
resolution to 330x240; the SW ffmpeg child runs at nice 10 (ppid=api process).
Non-h264 items (playable="transcode": HEVC/VP9/AV1/MPEG-2/XviD…) now play by
re-encoding the video to H.264 inside the existing HLS session, instead of the
old HTTP 501. VAAPI hardware encode (h264_vaapi, full GPU decode→scale→encode
pipeline) where the render node is present and the source is HW-decodable;
libx264 software fallback otherwise (yuv420p 8-bit, -threads reserve-one-core).
The re-encode mints a keyframe at every segment boundary (-force_key_frames) so
the HLS muxer still cuts independent segments and seeking works; everything else
— -copyts, the HLS tail, multi-audio renditions, the AAC audio path — is the
same machinery as remux, so hls.js/subtitles/seeking are unchanged. The session
route returns transcode/hw so the player can surface the active mode.
pytest pins both command branches (software + VAAPI shape) and the HW-selection
gate (render node present AND source HW-decodable). Browser-UAT'd on the XviD
fixture (Winning London): 501→plays, real 528×384 H.264 frames, 0 dropped, seek
lands clean; stats overlay Mode row reads "transcode".
At episode end, when a next item exists and the pref is on, show an up-next
card (poster + title + ~10s countdown + Cancel) instead of the old instant jump,
so binge stays in the viewer's control (D6-A). Countdown or Play now advances;
Cancel/✕ dismisses and stays on the finished frame. Lives only on the
play-to-the-end path — credits-auto-skip advances earlier and never reaches the
card, so the two reconcile by construction (no double-advance). New pref
'upNext' (default on) with a Playback-tab toggle; the card closes on item change
and joins the Back/Escape cascade. i18n HU/EN.
Add a toggleable stats overlay to the Plex player: active mode
(direct/remux/transcode), transport, resolution, codec, bitrate, HLS level,
dropped frames, buffer-ahead, session offset and position — sampled once a
second off the live videoRef + hlsRef (no data layer). Non-modal corner panel,
aria-live polite, dismissable; toggled with 'd', a gauge control-bar button, or
its X. Number-crunching lives in a pure, unit-tested plexStats module. Doubles
as the S1 transcode-verification surface. i18n HU/EN.
Add discoverable rewind-10 / forward-10 controls to the Plex player control
bar, flanking play/pause (D5-A). New Skip10 glyph: an outline circular arrow
with a centred '10', deliberately distinct from the episode-level
SkipBack/SkipForward and from Restart's plain RotateCcw. Reuses seekTo; mirrors
the keyboard ←/→ (seekStep=10). i18n HU/EN aria-labels.
Bundles the whole E7 epic (library metadata, crop fix, share-by-default, in-app player,
browser-playable guarantee, local upload) plus the deep-review hardening. Bump VERSION and
add the 0.76.0 release-notes entry (RELEASE_NOTES[0] must match VERSION).
Deep-review remediation on the frontend, all findings adversarially verified:
- LibraryPlayer picks audio vs video from the canonical media_kind (single source), not a
hardcoded container whitelist, so an uploaded audio file with an uncommon/absent container
renders in <audio> instead of a broken video box (legacy null media_kind keeps the heuristic).
- UploadDialog aborts the in-flight upload when the dialog is closed by X/ESC/backdrop/Back
(not only the footer Cancel); drag highlight uses an enter/leave depth counter to stop the
flicker; the progress bar gets a stable role=progressbar aria-label with the value on aria-valuenow.
- DownloadCenter's Shared tab renders honest loading/error states instead of a blank panel, and
the library/shared row-action gating moves to a single tested helper (lib/downloadActions).
Tests: downloadActions gating matrix, the uploadReq XHR path (abort/401/422-localize/onerror),
and the media_kind-driven audio/video branch.
i18n: downloads.upload.uploadProgress (HU + EN).
Deep-review remediation for the E7 upload path, all findings adversarially verified:
- Serve every library file with a Content-Type chosen from the ffprobe-verified media_kind
+ a strict container allow-list (storage.served_media_type), never guessed from the
user-controlled file extension. Closes a stored-XSS vector where a media/HTML polyglot
uploaded as "evil.html" was served inline as text/html on the login-free /watch surface.
Applied to both the authenticated /file and the public watch_file endpoints.
- Classify uploaded still images (jpg/png/gif/webp/…) as media_kind='file' so they are
force-downloaded and don't get a broken in-app video player.
- Roll back the on-disk side of an upload when the ingest transaction fails after place_file
(unlink the placed file + its deterministic poster path), so a failed commit can't orphan
bytes in the GC-skipped .uploads tree.
- Floor download_upload_max_bytes at min=1 so a stored 0 can't silently disable the per-file cap.
- Dedupe the ffprobe-JSON invocation into edit.run_ffprobe_json (shared by probe_codecs and
upload._probe) and the upload extension into storage._clean_upload_ext; drop the now-unused
parse_probe_streams.
Tests: public + authenticated force-download and the polyglot-not-served-as-HTML guard, the
real _probe classifier (image/cover-art/dims/duration), the ingest rollback/cleanup path, the
max_jobs branch, the cap-floor invariant, and run_ffprobe_json error handling.
The /watch/{token} SPA gets a third branch: media_kind==='file' renders an
info card (name / TYPE · size) + a Download button, no player. The <video>/
<audio> branches now guard on media_kind!=='file' so legacy links
(media_kind null) still play. Download is gated on the link's allow_download,
mirroring the media branch; the backend serves a file force-download
(attachment + octet-stream) regardless, so the gate only reflects owner ACL.
FE-only (public_meta already emits media_kind/size_bytes/container since S5a).
i18n HU/EN/DE 'file' fallback label. Two DOM tests: file -> info card +
Download, no player; view-only file -> no Download.
UploadDialog (drag-drop + native picker + optional display name) opened
from a new Upload button in the queue add-row. Uploads stream through a
new XHR helper (uploadReq in api/core) so the dialog shows real 0-100%
progress with a cancel — fetch/req can't report upload progress. The
upload lands as an already-done job; the S5b file-kind row gates it to
download+share. i18n HU/EN; upload cap/empty errors localize via the
shared structured-detail path.
Surface the S5a media_kind discriminator in the library UI. A generic
uploaded file (media_kind='file') is download+share only — no player and
no timeline to trim, so Play/Edit/Edit-details are media-only; it shows a
neutral file glyph instead of an (always-empty) thumbnail and no duration
chip (container/size still read). The "Shared with me" tab's file row is
gated the same way. Re-download is now hidden for edit clips and uploads
too (neither has a re-fetchable source — the backend already rejects both
with 409), removing a latent click-to-409 on edit rows.
FE-only: the serializer already emits media_kind (S5a). Adds media_kind to
the DownloadAsset type and "upload" to the job_kind union; DOM tests cover
the file-row presentation (glyph, no img, no duration).
Add the non-yt-dlp ingest path so a user-uploaded file joins the same download
library and inherits its function set. Any file type is accepted: media
(video/audio) gets the full set (metadata, share, play/edit), a generic file
(pdf/zip/docx/…) is download-only.
- MediaAsset.media_kind ("video"|"audio"|"file") — the stored discriminator that
gates library actions. Set at every finalize (download probe, editor carries the
source's kind, upload probe); consolidates the ad-hoc audio-detect that lived only
in links.py into one invariant (downloads.mediakind.derive). Migration 0076 adds
the column + backfills existing rows.
- downloads/upload.py: ingest_upload probes the file (ffprobe → codecs/dims/duration),
places it in a per-user .uploads tree, and creates an already-ready asset + done job
(the same cache-hit shortcut enqueue uses). Uploads never expire (irreplaceable).
- POST /api/downloads/upload: streaming multipart with the per-file cap
(download_upload_max_bytes, default 500 MiB) enforced on actual bytes read; quota
charges the known size up front (quota.check_upload).
- Security: a generic file is always served force-download (attachment +
application/octet-stream) on both the in-app and public endpoints, so uploaded
HTML/SVG can't execute inline. Edit + redownload reject non-media / upload sources.
- python-multipart added (first multipart endpoint in the app).
Play a completed library item in-app: a Play button on Library rows (and
Shared rows with download access) opens a modal that streams the local file
into a native <video controls> (or <audio> for audio-only assets).
Rather than the YouTube IFrame PlayerModal or the Plex HLS PlexPlayer — both
bound to their own domain APIs and unable to point at a local file — this
reuses the shared Modal a11y shell (focus-trap, ESC, layer-stack, portal) and
the range-aware /api/downloads/{id}/file endpoint. S4a's universal-codec
guarantee (mp4/H.264/AAC + m4a/mp3) makes native playback always work, so seek,
volume, fullscreen and speed come for free with zero transcode.
D2-A: the library row's Share button becomes a single action — quickShareLink()
ensures a public link (minting on demand), copies it to the clipboard, and toasts
with an "Open in new tab" action. A copy failure still toasts (warning) with that
action so the link is never a dead end. Advanced controls (password/expiry/revoke/
user-ACL) stay in the existing ShareDialog, reached via a new "Manage sharing" row
button.
D1 (forward-only): CreateLinkIn.allow_download defaults to true, so a newly minted
link is downloadable by default. The default lives in the API, not a migration —
the download_links column default stays false, so no existing link flips. The
ShareDialog create-default is flipped to match.
Tests: TestCreateLinkDefault (default true; explicit false honored); 4 vitest cases
for quickShareLink (mint-vs-reuse, copy ok/fail, create failure). HU/EN parity.
The Download module's purpose is download -> share -> play in-browser, so the
output must play in EVERY browser (iOS/Safari/WebKit included). The only
universally-safe combo is mp4 + H.264 + AAC/MP3.
- formats.normalize() now CLAMPS every spec to that profile (container->mp4,
vcodec->None, audio_format opus->m4a) at the single point all paths flow
through (picker, stored profile, raw API) — not just by hiding UI options. A
source exposing no H.264 is still caught by the worker's browser-safe
re-encode, so playability is guaranteed end-to-end.
- build_ydl_opts drops the now-unreachable non-compat branches (+ _VCODEC_SORT).
- _SIG_VERSION 3->4 so assets cached under an old non-compat spec — or a stale
non-H.264 mp4 that slipped the v3 net (the HEVC Facebook dls) — re-derive.
- ProfileEditor drops the container/codec pickers and Opus; audio is M4A/MP3.
- i18n: remove the now-unused container/vcodec/any keys (HU+EN parity).
The video preview is object-fit: contain (the browser default for <video>), so a
non-16:9 source is letter/pillarboxed inside the element box. The crop marquee was
drawn in fractions of the whole box (bars included) and those fractions were then
multiplied by the source resolution, so the emitted ffmpeg crop diverged from what
the selector showed. Anchor the overlay to the computed content rect (and set
object-contain explicitly) so a marquee fraction is a fraction of the real picture;
extract the display-px<->source-px math into cropGeometry.ts with unit tests, and
clamp the even-rounded window in-bounds so a full-frame crop can't overflow.
Enlarge every non-title text on the card (channel, status/format/size/date meta,
source-ref line, progress readout) one step (xs→sm) plus their inline icons, and
grow the row action buttons (padding + icon) via the actions wrapper so the shared
IconBtn stays smaller in the modals. Buttons keep the title's line — the wrapper is
shrink-0/no-wrap, so the text column shrinks instead.
The completed download rows already surfaced size + duration; add the concrete
container (MP4/M4A/WebM…) as a compact chip so the library reads as a media list
with a visible format — the audio-vs-video distinction the running-only phase pill
can't show at rest. Pure display of the already-serialized asset.container; locked
by a small DOM test (present when ready, absent before the worker fills it).
- Button: `loading` always disables (|| not ??) — stops a double-submit
when a call-site passes an explicit boolean `disabled` (VideoEditor).
- playlists: track un-ingestable-but-live YouTube ids in the sync baseline
so a linked playlist containing a private/deleted video converges instead
of re-classifying it as a pending pull forever; re-attempt ingestion each
sync so a restored (private->public) video heals, and prune ids that
leave YouTube.
- SettingsPanel: download-auth section renders an honest error/loading
state (StateMessage + retry) instead of a bare empty section on a failed
credentials fetch; HU+EN loadError string.
- tests: reorder-order, partial-failure baseline hold, un-ingestable
converge/heal/prune, Button loading-disables, download-auth error/retry.
The confirm dialog spelled out both sides even when one was "+0 / −0", which read
as engineer shorthand. Build the message from one sentence per side that actually
changes and add a short "stays unchanged" line for the untouched side; the zero
side is no longer shown as a bare +0/−0 to decode. Assembled in the component
from granular i18n clauses (add/remove per side, reorder, rename) with count
plurals; HU+EN. Replaces the single pushPlanMerge template.
"Sync to YouTube" was a one-directional destructive push (local wins, deletes
from YouTube every item not in the local list), so items added on YouTube were
lost and a dirty pull was skipped entirely. Replace it with a real 3-way merge:
each item is classified against the last-synced baseline as a local-add, a
YouTube-add, or a genuine delete, so an add or delete on either side survives.
- Persist the ordered baseline id set (new playlists.synced_video_ids, migration
0075); the fingerprint hash alone couldn't drive a merge. NULL baseline (fresh
export / pre-S7 link) unions losslessly on the first sync and records one.
- Pure merge_plan(baseline, local, youtube) -> add/remove per side + merged order
(local order, YouTube-only additions appended). merge_playlist applies the
local side directly and the YouTube side through the failure breaker; the
baseline only advances on full success so a partial failure re-converges.
- plan_merge/push-plan now report what each side gains and loses; the confirm
dialog shows the two-way plan before applying (pushPlanMerge, HU+EN).
- Tests: 10 new (pure classification incl. delete-vs-stale-copy; DB apply proving
a YouTube-add and a Siftlode-add both survive on both sides, a genuine delete
propagates without collateral loss, no-baseline never deletes, create path).
Each user stores their own login cookies (Netscape cookies.txt) for an
auth-walled download host (Facebook, Instagram, X, TikTok, Reddit) in
Settings; a download of an auth-walled link on that host is retried with
the acting user's cookie.
Two load-bearing security controls, both in downloads.credentials as the
single source of truth so enqueue and the worker can't drift:
- cache privacy: a cookie-authed download salts its MediaAsset format_sig
with the user id, so the authed asset is private and never cache-served
to another user. The worker attaches a cookie ONLY when the asset it is
downloading into IS that private, salted identity.
- host scope (SEC-12): a cookie is resolved only for a URL whose netloc
the credential owns (netloc-scoped _host_is); a look-alike/unrelated
host gets none.
cookies_enc is Fernet-encrypted at rest, only decrypted in-worker into a
0600 file under staging/.auth/ (survives the retry wipe + _produced_file
scan) and unlinked in finally. The blob is never returned by a route,
logged, audited, or written to a job's error/snapshot. cookiefile is set
after the adapter's extra merge so an adapter can't clobber it. Settings
UI is write-only (host + set/updated only, never echoed). New
download_credentials table + migration 0074; per-user routes; HU+EN i18n.
Tests: host-scope, cache-privacy (no cross-user serve), encrypt-at-rest,
write-only API, worker attach-gate; FE dom test for the write-only field.
Sweep the rounded-lg solid/ghost/outline action-button family onto the shared primitive:
ConfirmProvider, ErrorDialog, DownloadDialog, DownloadCenter, downloadModals, downloadAdmin,
ProfileEditor, PersonalViewsModal, SettingsPanel, WatchPage, DraftSaveBar. Deliberately left
on their own styles per the agreed scope: login/onboarding rounded-xl CTAs (Welcome/Onboarding/
Setup/KeyGate), glass Plex surfaces, segmented pills/toggles/switches/chips, dropdown triggers,
data-driven Banner/tone maps, text-xs dense buttons, and tiny inline p-1/p-1.5 icon controls —
none map 1:1 to a variant+size without a visual change, and the repo has no tailwind-merge.
Introduce frontend/src/components/ui/Button.tsx — the one action-button primitive
(variants primary|danger|outline|ghost|glass|danger-outline; sizes xs|sm|md|lg|icon;
icon/iconOnly/label/loading/fullWidth/forwardRef). No focus-visible (already centralized
in index.css @layer base). Migrate the cleanest proof sites off btnCls, and flip the
channel Subscribe button to the outline variant so it matches Full history (the user's ask).
The download/edit child (yt-dlp + ffmpeg) shares one LAN box with the API,
Postgres, and Plex playback. A CPU re-encode pegged every core for ~30s and
starved web requests + playback until it finished. Full-scope S4 mitigations:
- Child self-de-prioritizes at startup (inherited by every ffmpeg/yt-dlp
descendant): CPU nice increment + best-effort idle ionice class + an
OMP_NUM_THREADS budget, all config-gated and independently disable-able.
- Cap the browser-safe re-encode's encoder threads (`-threads`) so a transcode
reserves a core for foreground work instead of claiming all of them.
- Throttle the retention GC's whole-tree orphan sweep (yield IO after each
batch of files) so its rglob can't monopolize disk IO in the API process.
- Idle-back-off the Download Center (2s→15s when nothing queued/running) and
UsageBar (2s→15s when running_jobs is 0) polls; both snap back to 2s on the
next fetch after an enqueue (invalidateDownloads refetches immediately).
Tests: encode_thread_cap (pin/reserve-core/edge), -threads flag presence,
_deprioritize (nice/ionice/OMP branches), GC sweep throttle batching.
5a — the public watch page rendered every asset in a <video>, but WebKit (all
iOS browsers) refuses to play an audio-only mp3 in <video>, so shared audio
links were broken on iPad while working on desktop Chromium. public_meta now
flags audio-only assets (codec present, no video stream) and WatchPage renders
a native <audio> in a padded surface card (no artwork exists for these).
5c — a login-walled Facebook post failed as a bare 'unknown', which offered a
misleading Retry. Classify closed-group / cookie-suggestion auth walls as
login_required and genuinely unsupported sites as a new unsupported_host class
(both non-retryable), and drop unknown from the modal's retryable set — an
unclassified failure is most often an unparsed auth wall. The queue row keeps
its own force-retry for real transients.
The asc/desc buttons in the sort popover footer share one component across
Feed and Plex browse, but rendered differently: the Plex popover is narrower
(short option labels), so "Descending" wrapped icon-over-text and made the
active button taller. Add whitespace-nowrap to the direction buttons and bump
the popover min-width (min-w-52 -> min-w-56) so both call-sites render an
identical single-line toggle.
The incremental watch-sync (run_plex_watch_sync) learned a movie's watched
transition only from the history feed + onDeck. When a movie is finished on
Plex (commonly by scrubbing through the end credits) Plex sets viewCount>0,
clears viewOffset and DROPS it from Continue-Watching, so onDeck no longer
lists it (and onDeck can only ever ADD an in-progress row, never resolve one),
while a scrub-to-end frequently emits no history session row. The stale local
status='new', position>0 row then survived until the DAILY full reconcile —
which is why movies kept showing "in progress".
Add _reconcile_inprogress_movies: for each local in-progress MOVIE that Plex's
onDeck no longer lists, read its current per-account viewCount/viewOffset with
one metadata() call and apply it via the shared _pull_apply, flipping to
watched when Plex says so. Bounded by a probe cap (100), most-recently-touched
first; episodes are left to onDeck/history. No-signal rows are preserved (an
un-watch stays the daily reconcile's job).
Tests: watched-flip, onDeck+episode skip, and no-signal-preserved.
Deep-review of the quickfix batch surfaced two data/preference-loss bugs plus
smaller items; all fixed with tests.
- watch_sync _pull_apply: don't let the Plex-authoritative pull overwrite a DIRTY
local row (a change whose immediate push failed) — that stranded the value
forever since _repush_dirty only retries dirty rows. Leave it dirty for re-push.
- PlexProvider / ChannelsProvider: a partial shared link opened in a fresh tab
persisted mount-time DEFAULTS over the account's stored scope/sort/filters
(base read before the account was pinned). Persist/keep only URL-present dims;
re-hydrate the omitted ones from storage.
- playback resume write-back: guard against out-of-order delivery (a superseded
older push now drops) and evict the throttle map so it can't grow unbounded.
- PlexPlayer: announce mid-playback buffering to assistive tech (role=status +
sr-only label); new plex.player.buffering (HU+EN).
- columnSort: hoist the shared key:dir sort codec used by both URL-state modules.
- Tests: dirty-guard + flag-settle + per-key throttle scoping + superseded-push
(backend); hold-repeat/suppress-click/unmount + partial-link no-clobber +
refetch-doesn't-clobber-undo (frontend). Backend pytest 475, FE vitest 519.
The Channels-manager content state now round-trips through the address bar,
so a manager view is bookmarkable/shareable — the S4 pattern applied to the
last content page the audit flagged.
- New lib/channelsUrlState.ts (channelsParamUpdates / channelsParamsToState /
hasChannelsParams) under NAMESPACED keys ctab/csort/cf — channels-unique
like ?v=/?pl/pscope, so no other provider reads or clears them and the
feed's URL-stripping can't delete them. The mixed scalar/array FilterMap
(sync/priority scalars + tags multi) rides in `cf` as a JSON blob so both
shapes round-trip exactly. Only non-default values emit.
- ChannelsProvider mirrors {view, sort, filters} via useUrlMirror, page-gated
on channels (off-page the keys clear; localStorage still holds the state and
it re-mirrors on return). A shared link wins over stored state: readChannels
UrlSeed captured once, applied before paint through the slice setters (so the
account-pin re-hydrate sees them dirty and won't reload storage over the
shared view), then persisted to the account once pinned so it survives a
later plain reload — mirrors PlexProvider's seed/rehydrate. The name search
stays ephemeral (out of the shared contract).
- NavigationProvider's page-switch nulls ctab/csort/cf alongside the plex keys
so switching modules resets to the manager root.
Tests: channelsUrlState.dom.test.ts (9 round-trip) + ChannelsProvider.dom
seed/mirror (2); the existing tab-history test's beforeEach now resets the
query string too (the mirror writes it). FE vitest 503→514. FE-only.
The Personal-views manager's detail pane becomes editable instead of
read-only:
- Captured filters render as REMOVABLE chips. Removing one prunes the set
and writes it straight back to the stored view (PATCH filters), via the
same live-row builders (useActiveFilters / buildPlexActiveFilters) that
already compute the pruned snapshot — so the modal and the live chip row
can't drift. The prune is wrapped in useUndoable + the shared UndoToolbar,
so undo/redo re-persist the same way. The undoable draft is the single
source of truth for the chip row, so a chip-prune refetch never clobbers
the history.
- A "Save current" button beside Apply stores the module's currently-applied
filters INTO the view (the live→stored inverse of Apply). Disabled when the
view already equals the live filters (it's the active one). On save the
draft re-seeds to the saved snapshot and clears the stale undo history.
- Rename gains a visible commit affordance: a check button beside the name
input that enables once the name changes (Enter and blur still commit).
Provider gains two methods mirroring `rename`: updateFilters(id, filters)
and saveCurrent(id). One shared provider serves feed + plex, so both get it.
PATCH filters was already supported end-to-end — FE-only.
New i18n: views.saveCurrent / saveCurrentHint / saveCurrentUpToDate (HU+EN).
Tests: 5 new in PersonalViewsModal.dom.test.tsx (chip-remove persists, undo
re-persists, save-current fires + disables when up-to-date, rename commit).
Item 6 — the tag add-trigger now LEADS the chip row (a stable left anchor)
instead of trailing it, so on the detail page (bounded=false) adding chips
grows the row to its right and the '+'/its editor popover no longer drift.
Compact icon in the width-bounded manager cell; a labelled '＋ Tag' pill
where there's free width (the detail header).
Item 7 — surface the per-subscription 'hidden' flag on the detail GET
(channel_detail was omitting it) and add an Eye/EyeOff hide/unhide toggle
next to Block on the channel page, mirroring the manager. FE ChannelDetail
gains 'hidden'; new channel.* i18n keys (HU+EN).
Tests: +3 backend (channel_detail surfaces hidden, both states + unsubscribed
default). Gate green: backend pytest 471, FE vitest 498.
Redesign the shared PriorityStepper (channel manager cell + detail header)
from a value-plus-stacked-arrows control into a horizontal [−] value [＋]
segmented stepper. The value now sits centred between the buttons and opens
an inline editor in a FIXED-width slot, so click-to-type no longer "pops"
the control wider (the old absolutely-positioned overlay grew w-6 → w-14).
One `size` prop drives the two surfaces: `sm` draws its own bordered pill
for the standalone table cell; `md` drops the outer border and keeps only
the segment dividers, blending into the detail header's lozenge instead of
double-bordering it. Hold-to-repeat, negatives, and the debounced-flush
persistence hook are unchanged.
The manager priority column widens 3.5rem → 5.5rem to fit the horizontal
control under fixed table layout.
Tests: 7 new DOM tests for the stepper interaction contract.
Mirror the Plex-browse content state into the address bar so a browse view is
bookmarkable/shareable, the Plex analogue of the feed's urlState. Keys are
NAMESPACED (pscope/psort/pshow/pf) rather than reusing the feed's bare
scope/sort/show: FeedFiltersProvider actively strips its own KEYS from the URL
whenever off the feed page, so a shared key would be deleted out from under the
Plex page. The namespaced keys are Plex-unique (like ?v=/?pl), so no other
provider ever reads or clears them.
- New lib/plexUrlState.ts: plexParamUpdates / plexParamsToState / hasPlexParams.
The pf filter blob reuses the SAME appendPlexFilters wire serializer (new
public plexFiltersToParams + inverse parsePlexFilters, kept next to each other
so a new wire key can't be added on one side only).
- PlexProvider: URL-seed wins over localStorage at mount; the account-pin
rehydrate persists the seed instead of clobbering it (mirrors feed's
initialHadUrlFilters); useUrlMirror mirrors/clears the 4 keys, gated on
page===plex. q/field stay out of the shareable contract.
- NavigationProvider: a page switch now also nulls the 4 plex keys.
Tests: 8 new round-trip cases in plexUrlState.dom.test.ts (FE vitest 483→491).
Add a 'lastwatched' sort key to the unified Plex browse. Movies rank by
coalesce(progress_updated_at, watched_at); shows by max(coalesce(...)) across
their episodes (rollup.resumed_at, now broadened from progress-only so watched
episodes count too). Never-watched titles sink via nullslast.
Frontend auto-applies lastwatched:desc when entering the in-progress watch-state
view and restores the pre-entry sort on exit; a manual sort change while there
still wins. i18n HU+EN. Backend tests cover both union legs + mixed nullslast.
The incremental/reconcile job docstrings still described last-write-wins and a
30-min cadence; update them to match the S2 behavior (Plex wins on divergence,
15-min incremental) so the "why" doesn't drift from the code.
Make Plex the source of truth for watch state:
- Write-back during playback: item_progress now pushes the resume position to
Plex on the periodic checkpoint too (not only the final flush), throttled to
one push per item every ~10s (in-memory, single-process rate limiter). The FE
now also fires an immediate (debounced) push on seek.
- Faster incremental pull: 30 → 15 min (plex_watch_sync_interval_min).
- Plex-authoritative pull: _pull_apply resolves a genuine divergence to Plex's
state instead of last-write-wins; the _same_state + synced_to_plex short-circuit
still prevents a freshly-pushed row from bouncing. Removed the now-unused
_LWW_TOLERANCE_S / _sift_ts.
Tests: 5 new in test_plex_watch_sync.py (Plex-wins resume/watched, no-bounce,
throttle final vs periodic).
The Plex player stalled ~2s a few seconds into every auto-advanced next
episode. Root cause: each auto-advance spins up a cold ffmpeg HLS remux
session, and for a fresh start (start_s==0) start_session returned
immediately with zero buffer — hls.js drained the first segment, then
rebuffered waiting for the still-warming ffmpeg to write the next one.
Once ffmpeg gets ahead (stream-copy is faster than realtime) it never
stalls again.
- stream.py: before reporting a session ready, wait for the first
_WARMUP_SEGMENTS (3) video segments to exist — the seg0 wait is now
unconditional (was start_s>0 only) and warm-up runs for all starts.
Best-effort and bounded: stop at the first segment not ready in time.
- PlexPlayer.tsx: a loading/buffering spinner. The existing overlay only
covered the INITIAL load (!ready); add a `buffering` state driven by the
video's waiting/stalled/seeking (set) and playing/canplay/seeked/pause
(clear) events so a mid-playback stall or in-flight seek reads as
"loading" instead of a frozen frame, and surface a fatal loadError even
once playback has started. Spinner uses the shared Loader2.
Merges roadmap E6·item1 (spinner while loading/seeking) into this fix,
since the server-side warm-up deliberately holds ready a beat longer.
Tests: 3 new in test_plex_stream.py (warm-up waits for the first few
segments; stops at the first missing one; no warm-up when seg0 never
arrives). Gate: backend pytest 460 (Docker lane), FE tsc/lint/knip/
prettier + vitest 483.
