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- playback resume write-back: guard against out-of-order delivery (a superseded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- Tests: dirty-guard + flag-settle + per-key throttle scoping + superseded-push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.
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).
