Round 3 of the review killed the reopen from b5a1002: flipping an approved
invite back to pending let an unauthenticated POST /auth/register REVOKE a
standing approval for any whitelisted-but-unclaimed address, which then fails
is_allowed() and locks the real owner out of Google sign-in — the primary way
people get in here. It also re-armed the pre-emption window it was meant to
close, because with no SMTP email_verified is set True and the SEC-10 guard the
design leaned on never fires.
Two attempts at fixing the stranded-account UX in the same change both came back
worse than the wart. What remains is the narrow, real bug: the account was
silently rolled back and is now committed. An admin still binds the approval to
the account, exactly as before this branch. UX-25 in the roadmap records the
follow-up and both dead ends so they are not retried.
Also from round 3: the upsert docstring no longer claims the admin UI cannot
reach these accounts (re-entering the address in the same panel's whitelist box
does, and a test now pins it), the release notes are scoped to what the diff
actually changes with the operator note moved where the dialog renders it, and
RateLimiter has unit tests so reset() is not production code only a fixture
calls.
Replaces the activation added in ea931dc, which round 2 of the review showed was
a real weakening: on a no-SMTP instance it made a standing whitelist entry a
bearer grant — the first anonymous party to register an approved-but-unclaimed
address got an immediately usable account under that identity, with no
attestation, no admin action and no signal anywhere. The verify-time activation
had the same shape one step removed, and neither site ran the SEC-10 preset-
password guard or left an audit trail.
Keep a human in the loop instead. An approval granted before any account existed
was a decision about the ADDRESS, so registration reopens the invite
(upsert_pending_invite gains revive_approved, used only by the register worker).
The request lands in the Access-requests queue, approving it runs
_activate_user_by_email — and with it revoke_preset_password_if_unverified — and
the account activates. One mechanism, already audited, no new grant path, and
the "awaiting admin approval" copy is honest again.
The explicit commit from the previous commit still matters: with an invite
already pending, upsert returns without committing and _issue_token is gated on
SMTP, so a no-SMTP registration was still being rolled back.
Also from round 2: gate the admin notice on a fresh decision (matching the two
other upsert callers) so a retry no longer re-pings every admin, and reset the
module-level rate limiters between tests — the suite pooled every login into one
300s window and was two logins short of failing an unrelated test with a 429.
Follow-up to the commit fix, from the deep-review. Persisting the account was
only half the story: when the admin had approved the address BEFORE the person
registered, the account landed is_active=False against an invite that is no
longer pending — absent from the Access-requests queue, and approve_invite 409s
on an already-decided invite. The sign-up worked and still could not sign in.
Derive activation from is_allowed() at the moment ownership is attested:
- verify_email_confirm activates a pre-approved account when the emailed link is
confirmed (only the mailbox owner can follow it), so SEC-10 stays intact;
- _register_account activates only when there is no SMTP to verify with, where
the admin whitelist is by design the sole gate — the same one add_invite
already activates on.
Tests: the pre-approved no-SMTP case and the verify-activates case are real
regression tests (both fail without this change); guards cover the unknown-email
and denied->pending branches, verification of an unapproved account, and the
first end-to-end coverage of the /auth/register route and its
allow_registration gate. Release notes rewritten — the previous entry miscounted
its regression tests and advertised an email fix this release has no code for.
_register_account() flushed the new User but relied on someone else to commit:
upsert_pending_invite() commits only when it actually writes an invite row, and
_issue_token() runs only when SMTP is enabled. For an email an admin had ALREADY
approved, on an instance where email is unavailable, neither fired — the session
closed and the account was rolled back. The would-be user got the uniform "ok"
and no account, could not sign in, and re-registering was a silent no-op.
Commit explicitly after the invite upsert (a no-op when upsert already committed
the same transaction). Three DB-lane regression tests cover the pre-approved
no-SMTP path (fails without the fix), the unknown-email path that always worked,
and the pre-approved path with SMTP on.
hls.js startPosition:0 so the transcode/remux HLS session starts VOD-style
at the requested position instead of chasing the live edge of the growing
EVENT playlist.
Our HLS is a growing EVENT playlist with no ENDLIST, which hls.js reads as
LIVE. Its default startPosition (-1) then starts at the live edge and hugs it
(no forward buffer → rebuffer spinners), and on a resume/seek session the
segments' absolute PTS (-copyts, offset by the server's -ss) don't line up
with the live-edge timeline → 0 fragments load → permanent stall. The
seek-restart model makes fragment 0 the requested content position, so start
VOD-style at 0 and buffer forward. Fixes the transcode playback stall/rebuffer
found in 0.78.2 UAT.
Deep-review round 1 on bug/download-mediakind-probe found a real HIGH the prior
review missed:
- resolve_media_facts used a per-field `probe or info` fallback, so a probe that
RAN and deliberately found no video track (cover-art-only audio: attached_pic
skipped; a still image: format-guarded) had its None video overridden by
yt-dlp's stale vcodec. An audio-mode download from a progressive source (info
carries the source's video codec, embed-thumbnail on) was then classified VIDEO
-> a Play button + a broken in-app <video> with no video track. Only the
download path regressed (upload calls probe_media directly).
Fix: gate precedence on whether ffprobe RAN, not per-field. If the probe read
the file, its codec verdict wins outright (a None means 'no such track'); only a
full ffprobe failure falls back to info. Dimensions still gap-fill from info.
Refactored the parsing into _facts_from_probe so resolve_media_facts can see the
raw probe-ran signal; probe_media keeps its 5-tuple (upload + TestProbeClassifier
unchanged).
- tests: the cover-art-audio and still-image resurrection cases, a differing
populated-info precedence case (the prior-flagged gap), and the ffprobe-failed
info fallback — now stubbing run_ffprobe_json so the real parsing + precedence
run together.
Backend gate green (ruff + full pytest).
Deep-review round 2 on the round-1 fixes (all low):
- part_key churn (state): round 1's part-key reset re-probed EVERY sync for a
multi-version item (an original + a Plex 'Optimized' copy), because
_media_facts reads media[0]/part[0] whose order Plex doesn't guarantee stable,
oscillating transcode_hw between the two versions. Gate the part-key signal on
a single-version item (len(Media)<=1); codec-change reset still applies to all.
A multi-version same-codec re-encode not self-healing is an acceptable rare
edge; a per-sync re-probe loop is not.
- dead i18n key: this diff's playableClass() collapses to transcode_hw/sw, so the
bare plex.playable.transcode key it orphaned is now unused (knip can't see
dynamic keys). Dropped from both locales, parity kept.
- test: cross-facet narrowing by an active playable class (a co-facet's year
range collapses to the selected subset) — the flip side of self-exclusion,
previously unpinned.
The aria-label+title double-announcement on the card dot is a deliberate accepted
trade-off (reliable SR name + mouse tooltip). Backend + FE gates green.
Deep-review round 1 on feature/plex-playback-class-filter:
- Sticky watermark (medium): _apply_item reset the bit-depth probe watermark
only on a codec-string change, so a same-codec re-encode (8-bit->10-bit HEVC)
kept a stale video_bit_depth/transcode_hw forever (the backfill only re-probes
media_probed_at IS NULL rows). Also reset when the Plex Part key changes (the
file was replaced), not just the codec.
- i18n parity (medium): the HU playback-class labels were mixed-language (only
'direct' translated). Translated remux/transcode_hw/transcode_sw and the
tooltips consistently to Hungarian (Kozvetlen streameles / Atkodolas).
- Layering (low): _PLAYBACK_CLASSES was module-private yet imported across into
routes.plex.browse; renamed to public PLAYBACK_CLASSES (it is the shared
source of truth for facet order + zero-fill).
- a11y (low): the browse-card playback-class dot conveyed meaning only via a
mouse-hover title; added role=img + aria-label so SR/touch users get the class.
- tests: the NULL/unprobed transcode_hw -> SW fold (filter + facet), facet
self-exclusion under an active playable filter, the migration codec-set ==
HW_DECODABLE_CODECS drift guard, the probe-batch bound + oldest-first order,
the transient probe-failure retry path, and the same-codec re-encode re-probe.
Backend gate green (ruff + full pytest); FE gate green (tsc/lint/knip/prettier/
vitest). NOTE: the facet-vs-runtime disagreement for 10-bit HEVC (C1) is the
known merge-order constraint — this branch's runtime is codec-only; the facet
becomes truthful once BUG1/tonemap's bit-depth-aware routing lands with it. Left
as a sequencing constraint, not code-changed here.
Deep-review round 3: the only surviving finding — a comment-drift nit. The
fallback's cull-yield comment named the route's 'Not available yet' path, but a
culled-key segment request actually returns 'No active playback session' (the
substantive invariant — never a None that 404s as file-not-found — is unchanged).
Reworded to match the route. Concurrency + correctness came back clean.
Deep-review round 2 on the round-1 fix:
- Race (medium): the round-1 identity guard did the supersede check and the
respawn in TWO separate _lock sections. A newer same-key session installed in
the gap was still torn down by _spawn's unconditional pop+kill (the round-1
comment even had the direction backwards). Fold the check into _spawn via a
new replace_only= param: the identity test and the pop+replace now share ONE
lock, so the respawn is a true no-op when superseded/culled.
- Honest states (low): the superseded branch returned current_session(key),
which is None when the key was cap-culled during our out-of-lock wait; the
route turns None into a dishonest 'Media file not found on disk' 404 for a
file that exists. Yield 'current_session(key) or s' so a culled session
degrades to the route's retryable 'not available yet' path instead.
- Hygiene: _want_hw docstring corrected (it is a test-only shim now; production
decides via _select_encode) and the two stale _want_hw references refreshed
(stream.py header, config.py plex_transcode_hw).
- tests: the cap-cull no-respawn/no-None sub-case; the _opencl_present except
OSError branch (glob raising, not just empty); tightened a tautological -vf
assertion. Backend gate green (ruff + full pytest).
Deep-review round 1 on feature/plex-hdr-hw-tonemap:
- F1 (correctness): _select_encode gated tonemap on bit-depth alone, so a
10-bit *SDR* (bt709) source got the HDR hable tone curve applied, visibly
altering an SDR picture where only a 10->8-bit downconvert was needed. Split
the ffprobe gate into a 3-way classifier (_probe_video_kind: hwsafe / hdr /
sdr10); only true-HDR (PQ/HLG) takes the OpenCL tonemap graph, 10-bit SDR
drops to software libx264 (an exact downconvert). Applies to both auto and on.
- F2 (race): the runtime HW->SW fallback popped+killed _sessions[key] with no
identity check. Because wait_for blocks OUTSIDE _lock, a concurrent same-key
_spawn (rapid seek-restart) or _enforce_cap cull could kill this session; the
fallback then respawned software over the NEWER session and breached the
transcode cap. Guard the respawn: only fall back if _sessions[key] is still
this session, else yield the currently-registered one.
- tests: 3-way classifier (incl. HLG + empty-probe), real _opencl_present glob,
real wait_for proc fast-fail branch, tonemap-variant fallback, the F1
regressions (auto + on), the supersede/no-respawn race, and the on/opencl
matrix cell. Backend gate green (ruff + full pytest).
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.
Adds a movie-scoped "Playback" filter to the Plex feed so a user can isolate items by how
they play — the groundwork for collecting HW-transcodable (or no-transcode) versions.
Four classes derived from the stored `playable` + a new `transcode_hw` facet:
- Direct Play (direct), Direct Stream (remux)
- Transcode · HW — playable=transcode AND the iGPU can hardware-transcode it
- Transcode · SW — playable=transcode, software libx264 only
The HW/SW split is precise, not codec-only: a 10-bit/HDR HEVC is HW-decodable yet breaks the
VAAPI nv12 pipeline (the same case plex/stream special-cases), so it must count as SW.
Backend:
- New PlexItem columns (migration 0077): transcode_hw, video_bit_depth, media_probed_at.
Migration backfills transcode_hw codec-only so the filter works immediately.
- `plex.sync.transcode_hw_capable` is the single classifier; the HW-decodable codec set moves
to sync as `HW_DECODABLE_CODECS` and plex.stream imports it, so the catalog facet and the
runtime encoder choice can't disagree by codec.
- Bit-depth backfill (`_probe_media_batch`, wired into sync): probes only HW-decodable transcode
items' video Stream for bit-depth + HDR and refines a 10-bit/HDR HEVC to software. Bounded
per run, watermarked by media_probed_at. A codec change resets the watermark (stale probe).
- Filter + self-excluded facet on a shared `playback_class_expr` CASE (movie-leg only — a show
is an aggregate with no single class). transcode_hw threaded onto the feed/detail/card JSON.
Frontend:
- Multi-select "Playback" Combobox in the sidebar (movie scope, facet-empty drop-out), active
chips, 4-way corner-dot badge (green/blue/amber/red) + tooltip, and an info-page playback chip
with a codec · bit-depth subtitle. New `bg-info` (blue) token, i18n HU/EN parity.
- Fix a regression where the card's playback dot lost its hover tooltip: the full-card reveal
overlay swallowed the cursor; the dot now sits above it (z-20).
Gate: backend full lane + frontend typecheck/lint/knip/prettier/vitest all green. Browser-UAT'd
on localdev (filter narrows to the SW set, facet counts, badge colour + tooltip, info chip).
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.
A downloaded video was silently demoted to a download-only "file" (no
in-app play/edit) whenever yt-dlp's info dict omitted vcodec/acodec — which
it does for Facebook and other sources. Finalize derived media_kind from
those nulls (`derive(None, None)` -> file), so a genuine H.264/AAC MP4
became non-playable in the library.
Fix: probe the finished file on disk (the ground truth) at finalize and
derive from that, falling back to the info dict only for a field the probe
couldn't read. This is the same ffprobe the upload ingest already used, now
extracted to a shared downloads/probe.py so the download worker and the
upload path share one classifier (and can't drift). Also backfills the
stored vcodec/acodec/width/height from the real file.
Tests: TestResolveMediaFacts pins probe-wins-over-info (incl. the Facebook
no-codec case and yt-dlp's literal "none"); upload's probe tests repoint to
the shared module.
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).
