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lock, so the respawn is a true no-op when superseded/culled.
- Honest states (low): the superseded branch returned current_session(key),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.
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.
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".
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.
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.
The full-bleed 4-poster collage drowned the on-tile text. Split PosterTile in two: the top
half shows up to 2 montage posters, the bottom half is a solid colour-hash band that carries
the label, so the text is always readable. Genre tiles drop the count (just the label now);
collection tiles show the name on one truncated line plus a sub-line of item count · total
runtime. A group with no art falls back to an all-colour tile.
Backend: `/collections` cards gain `total_runtime_s` (a new `runtime_by_key` grouped sum) and
their montage art is capped at 2. Frontend: PosterTile reworked; a `collectionMeta` helper
builds the count·runtime sub-line via the existing formatRuntime.
Verified live: collection and genre tiles render 2 posters over a readable colour band with
the right sub-lines; colour fallback intact for art-less groups.
Gate: tsc/lint/knip/prettier clean, 423 vitest; backend ruff clean, collections tests green
(+ a new art/runtime assertion).
The Browse-by-genre tiles and the Collections browse tiles were flat color-hash
gradients. Give each a 2×2 collage of its top films' poster art, with the color hash
kept as the fallback so a group with no matching art (a show-only or empty collection)
never renders blank.
Backend: a shared `top_art_keys` windowed query returns, per key (a genre value or a
collection rating_key), the top few items' rating_keys — best-rated then newest, in one
query. Wired into the Discover genre tiles and the collections union endpoint; the client
renders the posters from the existing /api/plex/image/{key} endpoint, so no new image
plumbing. Frontend: a shared PosterTile component (collage + scrim + label, color-hash
fallback) replaces the two ad-hoc colored-tile implementations.
Verified live on localdev: genre tiles and collection tiles render real poster collages,
with the color fallback correctly kicking in for groups without art.
Gate: tsc/lint/knip/prettier clean, 423 vitest; backend ruff clean, 11 discover tests
(incl. a new genre-art assertion).
A title can belong to several Plex collections, so the collection filter becomes
multi-select combining with Any (OR, default) / All (AND) — the same shape as the
genre/actor filters.
Backend (query.py): `collection` (single) → `collections` CSV + `collection_mode`
on LibraryFilters; meta_filter_conds ORs/ANDs `collection_keys.contains` per id.
Frontend: PlexFilters `collection`/`collectionTitle` → `collections` + optional
`collectionMode` + `collectionTitles` map; CollectionPicker is now a multi-select
Combobox with the any/all match footer; one chip per collection (usePlexActive-
Filters); the info-page "Browse collection" strip unions into the list; applyFilter
now shallow-merges label maps so adding one keeps the others' titles. PlexProvider
migrates a legacy persisted single `collection` into the new shape on read.
Test: test_plex_collections_filter (single / any-union / all-intersection).
Full-epic /deep-review (11 finders + 12 adversarial verifiers) surfaced no HIGH; every
mechanism finding calibrated to LOW on verification. Fix all 13:
Correctness / reliability:
- Combobox: Enter now commits the VISUALLY highlighted row (highlightIndex ?? activeIndex),
not the bare keyboard activeIndex — so arrow-then-hover-then-Enter no longer toggles a
different option than the one painted, and hover-with-no-arrow is no longer a silent no-op.
- parse_person: dedup the known_for pool by (id, media_type), not the bare id — TMDB movie
and tv id spaces are independent, so a same-id movie+show pair is two distinct credits
(matches the collision-safe key the rest of the module already uses).
- person-enrich: a per-person in-flight + 60s cooldown guard (people._should_schedule_enrich)
dedups concurrent opens and rate-limits re-triggering while TMDB is degraded (a transient
TmdbError leaves the watermark NULL), so bursts can't pile 8s tasks onto the shared threadpool.
- PlexInfo compact()/money(): format with i18n.language (keeping currency USD) instead of a
hardcoded en/en-US, matching the app's Intl convention.
- delete the dead `plex.filter.add` i18n key (both locales) — the +Add button that used it is gone.
Reuse:
- _continue_watching reuses rollup.agg_subquery(include_resumed=True) + query.apply_show_state_filter
instead of a third hand-inlined copy of the per-show rollup + in_progress predicate, so the
Discover rail can't drift from the grid's definition.
Test coverage (the gaps a regression would ship through):
- resolve_library_guids scope-exclusion (a credit in a non-scoped/disabled library is dropped)
+ the []-vs-None distinction; parse_person cross-media-id retention; enrich_person transient
(NULL watermark) and 404 (stamp) branches; _enrich_person_bg body (fresh session close/rollback,
None-guard) + the cooldown dedup; continue_watching fully-watched-show exclusion; Combobox
Enter-commits-highlighted + async/controlled-query mode; PopoverItem aria-checked contract;
RatingsRow missing-IMDb + imdb==audience branches.
Backend lane 413→420, FE vitest 351→357; all gates green. No migration.
Address the deep-review's deferred backend items so E5 is review-complete:
- person-enrich OFF the request path (ABUSE finding): person_detail no longer makes
the TMDB call inline (even bounded to 8s it sat on the serve thread, un-throttled,
demo-reachable — it violated the module's "no live TMDB call at serve time"
invariant). It now schedules a FastAPI BackgroundTask (people._enrich_person_bg,
fresh session, best-effort) after the response; the first open serves the row as-is
and the bio lands by the next open. The inline try/rollback recovery is gone with it.
- reuse: a shared tmdb.resolve_library_guids owns the collision-safe guid→library
bucketing (movie vs tv ids are independent sequences) that resolve_recs and
people._resolve_known_for each hand-duplicated; a new rollup.item_state_map dedups
the "PlexState-by-item_id" fetch across the person + discover paths.
- test gaps: enrich_batch transient TmdbError leaves the watermark NULL to retry;
guid_to_tmdb_id resolves a tvdb source + tv media_type via /find's tv_results;
_continue_watching includes a NULL-status started movie and excludes a hidden one;
/api/search/youtube returns 422 (not 5xx) when ingest fails (route-level, B-core-1).
Backend lane 403 → 413, ruff clean. No migration; serve contracts unchanged.
Three verified deep-review findings (the 4th, the filter combobox a11y gap, is
deferred to a dedicated session on the combobox architecture):
- SEC (medium): TmdbClient sent the api_key as a URL query param, so an HTTP
error's httpx exception string embedded the full URL incl. the key, which
enrich_batch logged. _get now raises status+path only (never str(e)/the URL)
and severs the secret-bearing cause with `from None`. Regression test asserts
neither the status nor the network error path contains the key.
- STATE (low): person_detail's lazy-enrich except now db.rollback()s, so a
failed enrich_person commit can't poison the session and 500 the subsequent
SELECTs (SQLAlchemy 2.x deactivates the tx on a commit-time flush failure and
does not auto-reset it). Test locks that the page renders despite a poisoned
enrich.
- ABUSE (low): the request-path lazy person enrich now caps its TMDB client at
an 8s timeout (was the 30s default) so a slow TMDB can't tie up a worker;
TmdbClient gained a `timeout` param (batch keeps 30s). The fuller fix (move
person enrichment off the request path) is logged for later.
Follow-ups from the epic-end /code-review of the E5 branch:
- tmdb.resolve_recs + people._resolve_known_for: match recommendations/
credits to the library bucketed by media_type. TMDB movie ids and tv ids
are independent sequences, so a bare `tmdb:<id>` match could deep-link a
movie rec to an unrelated show (or vice-versa) on a numeric collision.
Regression test added (test_resolve_recs_matches_by_media_type_not_bare_id).
- routes/search: wrap the _ingest_candidates call so a DB/enrich failure
degrades to a 422 with a message instead of a bare 500 hidden behind the
FE's generic "search failed" (extends the B-core-1 rationale); rollback on
failure. Stamp enriched_at with its own timestamp taken after the enrich,
not the stub-insert placeholder.
- routes/plex/discover: key serialized cards back by rating_key (globally
unique in Plex) instead of id(obj); fix the stale rows 3-tuple annotation.
The person page now leads with a TMDB bio, lazily fetched the first time it's
opened (off the S2-linked `tmdb_person_id`) and then served from the row:
- Migration 0072: ADD-only nullable person columns on plex_people — biography,
birthday, deathday, place_of_birth, known_for_department, also_known_as,
known_for ([{tmdb_id, media_type, title}]), tmdb_enriched_at.
- tmdb.py: TmdbClient.fetch_person (/person/{id}+combined_credits), parse_person
(bio + a popularity-ranked, deduped known_for), apply_person, enrich_person
(lazy one-shot, key+id guarded, commits, 404 stamps the watermark).
- people.py person_detail: loads the full person row, lazily enriches (best-effort
— never fails the page), serves the bio fields + resolves known_for to library
rows by guid (in-library only, popularity order).
- FE PlexPersonView: bio/birth-facts/aka hero + a "Known for" Carousel rail above
the existing Movies/Shows filmography; PlexPersonDetail type + i18n (en+hu).
Tests: test_plex_person_bio.py (6: parse / lazy-enrich guards / serve) + extended
PlexPersonView.dom.test.tsx + the unknown-name contract in test_plex_person.py.
Browser-E2E'd on Jim Carrey (live TMDB enrich → bio 1937 chars, born 1962-01-17
Newmarket, Known-for resolved). Gate: vitest 337, backend lane 402.
Consumes the TMDB block the S2 engine already persists + serves (movie/show
detail's `tmdb`), turning the movie info page into a Seerr-style enriched detail
(page variant only — the player overlay stays lean):
- Multi-source ratings row: IMDb (links out) · TMDb (with vote count) · Plex
audience — whichever are present. Only the primary score (IMDb, else audience)
carries the ratingMin filter, mirroring the backend rating column.
- Facts panel: release · runtime · cert · budget · revenue · studios · countries.
- Keyword chips → tap to filter the library. Backend: a new `keywords` filter on
LibraryFilters + meta_filter_conds (`keywords @> [kw]`, both models), wired
through PlexFilters (appendPlexFilters / plexFilterCount / active-chip / clear).
- Full crew (TMDB key-crew) → tap a name to open their person page.
Tests: test_plex_keyword_filter.py (3) + PlexInfo.dom.test.tsx (5, incl. the
overlay-stays-lean guard). New i18n plex.info.facts.* / keywords / crew / audience
(en+hu). Gate: vitest 337, backend lane 396.
A dedicated Plex "Discover" landing — a stack of horizontal Carousel rails
served from ONE consolidated read (serve-from-DB, no live Plex/TMDB call):
- GET /api/plex/discover → continue_watching (in-progress movies + shows, most
recently progressed) · recently_added · genres (top-N tiles) ·
because_you_watched (recs of the most-recent watched, TMDB-enriched movie,
resolved to library rows by guid via serve_block's resolver).
- GET /api/plex/surprise → a fresh random, scope-bounded sample for the ↻ rail.
Frontend: PlexDiscover.tsx (rails reuse the S1 Carousel + S3 PlexPosterCard;
colored genre tiles → tap to filter the grid; ↻ reshuffles the surprise rail
alone). Discover is now the root sub-view; the flat grid becomes the bookmarkable
"Browse all" secondary view (?v=browse) reached by a header search/filter (a
browse-intent flip) or the new Discover⟷Browse toggle.
resolve_recs is promoted from _resolve_recs (now cross-module). Tests:
test_plex_discover.py (rail shape/order, continue-watching, because-you-watched
+ null, surprise bounds, scope) and PlexDiscover.dom.test.tsx; plexSubUrl
round-trip updated for discover-root/grid-browse. Backend lane 393, vitest 332.
The poster card (grid + person page) gets the Seerr-style hover: on hover a
bottom scrim slides up with the title, a "year · runtime · ★rating" meta line,
and a 3-line synopsis — the info you'd otherwise click through for — plus a
less-flat play ring (radial-gradient + ring shadow) and a top-right quick-action
cluster (Info + watched-toggle, revealed on hover / always on touch). Rest-state
badges (season / type tag) yield to the scrim on hover; the playable-cost tint
stays. (§1 A + C from the enrichment study.)
Backend (the data the scrim needs, mirroring S1's `art`): the grid
(browse.unified_library) now emits a lang-coalesced, truncated `summary` (new
query.summary_col) + the Plex `rating`; movie_card/show_card do the same (EN) for
the detail/related/person cards. PlexCard.rating type added (summary already
existed for episodes).
Gate: tsc x3 / eslint / prettier / knip / vitest 326 green; ruff green; backend
lane full suite green. Self-E2E on the live dev server (rebuilt on this branch,
S2-enriched): the grid serves rating+summary (Shawshank 9.3, Godfather 9.2, real
synopses) and the card renders the play ring + scrim (The Expanse: ring, synopsis,
★8.1) — verified via the DOM (the pane wouldn't composite for a screenshot).
A live smoke against the real TMDB API showed two crew problems the mocked
tests missed: (1) a TV show's creator/showrunner lives in the payload's
top-level `created_by`, not the crew list, so it was dropped entirely; and
(2) TMDB's crew order is arbitrary — a TV show's per-episode Directors (dozens)
flooded the key-crew list and buried the show-level roles.
Fix: split the accepted crew jobs by media type — movies key on
Director/Writer/…; TV keys on Creator (from created_by) + the show-level
Executive Producer/Writer/Producer/Composer, deliberately excluding the
per-episode Director/Editor/DP noise. Stored crew is sorted by display
priority and capped, so the lead roles come first.
Verified live: Breaking Bad -> [Gilligan (Creator), Johnson (EP), … , Writer];
The Godfather -> [Coppola (Director), Puzo (Screenplay), …]. test_plex_tmdb
green (9).
Matches each mirrored Plex movie/show to TMDB by its stored canonical guid,
fetches once (append_to_response), and PERSISTS the enrichment onto the row —
served from the DB, never a live TMDB call at serve time. Additive: the
Plex-sourced imdb_rating/rating are untouched; tmdb_rating is the distinct
TMDb community score (ratings scope = TMDb + Plex's IMDb/audience, no OMDb/RT).
- config.py: tmdb_api_key + api_base/language/interval/batch defaults.
- sysconfig SPECS: tmdb_api_key (secret, Fernet) + tmdb_language, auto-rendered
in the admin Config page; read like the Plex token.
- migration 0071 (ADD-only nullable, reversible): plex_items + plex_shows gain
tmdb_id / tmdb_enriched_at (watermark) / tmdb_rating / tmdb_vote_count /
budget / revenue / keywords / crew / studios / production_countries /
recommendations / backdrops; plex_people gains tmdb_person_id (the S2
foundation for S6 person bios). No watermark reset needed.
- app/plex/tmdb.py: TmdbClient (mirrors PlexClient; throttled; 404->None,
transient->TmdbError), parse_tmdb / apply_tmdb_detail (one-parser rule),
guid_to_tmdb_id (tmdb: direct, imdb:/tvdb: via /find), enrich_batch (movies
then shows, transient error leaves the watermark NULL to retry, definitive
no-match still stamps so it isn't re-fetched), _link_people (upserts
tmdb_person_id by name), serve_block (recommendations resolved to library
rows by guid), run_enrich (no-op without a key).
- scheduler: tmdb_enrich nightly job (default 120 min, no YouTube quota),
runtime-tunable + "run now" from the Scheduler dashboard.
- detail endpoints emit `tmdb` (movies + shows) so it's curl-verifiable now;
the FE render lands in S5.
Note: _link_people inserts plex_people rows for TMDB cast/crew; unreferenced
crew (composers etc., not in cast_names/directors) get pruned by the orphan
sweep — acceptable, the person page is cast-driven and cast rows survive.
Gate: ruff + py_compile green; backend test lane FULL suite 387 passed
(incl. migration drift downgrade->re-upgrade + test_plex_tmdb 9 tests).
Frontend unchanged since S1. Not merged (epic branch, stacks on S1).
Wave 5a building blocks under the Seerr-inspired Plex enrichment (E5).
Carousel (frontend/src/components/Carousel.tsx): the one horizontal-rail
component, replacing the hand-rolled `flex overflow-x-auto` strips and the
home of the future Plex-Discover rows. Edge-fade mask, hover/focus scroll
buttons that appear only on the clipped side (useHScroll — the X-axis twin
of useScrollFade, same watch-the-children discipline), native scrollbar
hidden behind .no-scrollbar, reduced-motion-aware paging. First consumers:
CastStrip + RelatedStrip now scroll inside it (dedup + free affordances).
New i18n: common.seeAll / scrollLeft / scrollRight (en+hu).
Card-art serializer (backend/app/plex/cards.py): movie_card + show_card now
emit `art` (the wide backdrop, /api/plex/image/{rk}?variant=art) so rails and
the crossfading hero get a landscape image with no per-item fetch — gated on
art_key so an art-less item stays null and falls back to the poster. FE type
PlexCard.art?.
Tests: Carousel.dom.test (children/header/see-all, clipped-edge buttons +
paging), test_plex_cards (art present/absent by art_key). Added a
ResizeObserver stub to PlexPersonView.dom.test (it renders CastStrip, now a
Carousel consumer).
Gate: tsc x3 / eslint / prettier / knip / vitest 324 green; ruff green;
backend test lane (docker-compose.test.yml) green on the plex card tests.
Round-1 review fixes on the E3 branch:
- prune partial-fetch (correctness): `_paginate` now reports whether it reached
the server's reported `total`; `_prune_stale` prunes only on a COMPLETE
non-empty listing. A truncated fetch (a mid-sequence empty/short page before
total — a transient Plex hiccup) no longer deletes the rows it merely failed
to list. New test: a listing that claims 5 but returns 1 prunes nothing.
- `_prune_stale` (robustness): `stats.get("pruned", 0) + 1` — no KeyError when a
caller's stats dict omits the key.
- service transitions (conventions): pause/resume/redownload use the JobStatus
StrEnum instead of loose "queued"/"paused"/"error" literals, matching cancel.
- ffmpeg progress writer (correctness): a stuck-percent heartbeat now runs on its
OWN 1/interval budget, so it can't consume the progress-write slot and delay a
real percent change by up to an interval.
- backend/app/README.md (conventions): reword the transaction-ownership rule to
quote and extend CLAUDE.md's canonical ("handler/job-wrapper commits; helpers
flush; only quota owns its session") instead of stating a contradicting
"helpers MAY commit" carve-out.
ruff clean, full DB-lane 364 pass.
A sync was upsert-only: a movie/show/season/episode removed from Plex stayed
browsable forever and 404'd on playback. Each section now diffs the rating_keys
it just listed against the stored ones and deletes the stale rows (watch-state /
playlist links cascade via the existing FKs), mirroring the collections prune
that already shipped.
Safety: the prune is GUARDED on a non-empty listing (_prune_stale returns early
when `seen` is empty), so a transient Plex glitch that yields an empty page can
never mass-delete a library — the metadata is cheap to re-sync, an accidental
wipe is the only real risk. Shows prune leaf-first (episodes -> seasons -> shows)
so a stale row is deleted directly before its parent's cascade reaches it.
Out of scope (separate follow-up): library-level reconcile of a whole removed
section + retiring the dead `PlexLibrary.enabled` column.
Tests: movie prune + watch-state cascade, the empty-listing guard (mutation-
verified — removing the guard wipes everything), show/season/episode prune.
351 DB-lane pass, ruff clean.
The `show` scope (all|watched|in_progress|unwatched) filter and the status CASE
were hand-duplicated between unified_library (the grid) and facets.wsq — the
exact drift risk the review flagged (a hidden movie kept out of the grid must
not inflate facets). Extract them into four shared query.py helpers
(movie_status_case, show_status_case, apply_movie_state_filter,
apply_show_state_filter), model-agnostic (callers pass the joined state
expressions), and point all three call sites at them.
Pure behaviour-equivalence refactor: browse.py -67 lines, no query changes.
Green under the E3 S1 parity net + query_conversion/facets/field-scoped/lang
tests (348 DB-lane pass, ruff clean).
Review round on the whole E1 stack (main..HEAD). 6 findings, all low/medium,
none blocking; fixed for a clean gate-green handoff.
- plex/sync (correctness): the un-enriched cast guard compared the stored cast
against THIS listing's length, so a trimmed Plex cast on a not-yet-enriched
row was never applied. Compare against the listing CAP (_LISTING_CAST_CAP=20)
instead: >cap = enriched (keep, survives a watermark reset), <=cap =
listing-sourced (track edits in both directions). +2 regression tests.
- main (security): add X-Frame-Options: DENY as the legacy-browser fallback for
the CSP frame-ancestors clickjacking guard.
- downloads/service (altitude): finalize_if_running now uses a SQLAlchemy 2.0
update() construct instead of a hand-built text() UPDATE string — same atomic
WHERE status='running', idiomatic, no identifier interpolation, no manual
StrEnum coercion. Drops the now-unused text import.
- auth/admin (reuse): extract the SEC-10 "drop untrusted preset password + bump
epoch" invariant into one helper (revoke_preset_password_if_unverified) so the
Google-callback and admin-activation paths can't drift.
- tests/migrations (robustness): guarantee the shared schema is restored to head
in a finally, so a downgrade/re-upgrade failure can't cascade into later tests.
- worker (simplification): align _finish_from_cache's display_name fill with the
_download path's guard (no behavior change).
Gate green: ruff clean, 334 pytest (0 skip), frontend unchanged.
The union form fixed the downgrade but removed the per-sync self-healing: a name
Plex removed from an unenriched title lingered in cast_names/people_text until
enrichment. Replace the union with a length guard — take the fresh listing
unless it is shorter than what is stored. A stored cast longer than the ~20-cap
listing can only be an enriched fuller list (kept, so a watermark reset never
downgrades it); at or below the cap the stored value is itself listing-sourced,
so replacing it with the current listing stays self-correcting.
_apply_facet_fields seeded cast_names from the cheap top-~20 listing only while
people_enriched_at was NULL, relying on "a sync never clears the watermark" to
protect an enriched fuller cast. Migration 0065 broke that assumption by nulling
people_enriched_at on every movie/show row, so the first post-deploy sync
downgraded enriched casts back to the listing top-20 — silently dropping
person-page cast-filter names for weeks until the backfill caught up (the S5b
regression, re-opened by the migration).
Guard structurally instead of trusting the watermark: union the listing cast
onto whatever is stored, never dropping a name already present. A fresh row
still seeds from the listing; a row whose watermark was reset but whose fuller
cast survives keeps it. Robust to any future watermark reset, not just 0065.
1. (correctness) Show hero rating regression: PlexBrowse's show hero rendered a
rating only when show.imdb_rating was set, so after the S6 IMDb-only change a
show with no imdb:// entry showed no rating. Now falls back to the audience
`rating` like PlexInfo.
2. (correctness) ratingMin column mismatch: the rating filter and the /facets
rating_max now key off coalesce(imdb_rating, rating) — the SAME "best score"
the badge displays — so a ratingMin picked from a shown IMDb score narrows the
right column instead of the raw audience `rating`.
3. (altitude) HU search gap: new query.vector_match() matches EITHER vector in HU
(or_(search_vector_hu, search_vector)) so a row with no HU twin stays findable
by its English title; ranking still uses the HU vector. field_recheck unions
the HU+EN per-field tsvectors in HU, staying a strict subset of the prefilter.
4. (test-coverage) Extracted the badge logic to lib/plexRating.pickRatingBadge
(shared by PlexInfo + the show hero) with a unit test (imdb-preferred, audience
fallback, 0-score, none). Backend tests added for the HU union search + the
IMDb-preferred rating filter.
5. (efficiency) Language switch no longer double-fetches the grid: browseQ is
gated on a committedLang state that lags `lang` by one render, so the
genre-clear effect settles into a single fetch instead of one throwaway fetch
with stale-language genres plus a second.
DB-lane suite 295 passed / 2 skip; FE tsc/knip/lint clean, 217 vitest pass.
E5 S6 backend half (no migration — the *_hu / rich columns exist from S5a/S5b).
Language-aware serving (?lang=hu serves the HU overlay twin, EN fallback per row):
- query.py: column pickers title_col / genres_col / vector_col; field_recheck and
meta_filter_conds take `lang`. DISPLAY/FILTER pickers coalesce(*_hu, *) (EN
fallback); SEARCH pickers use the raw *_hu column mirroring the generated
search_vector_hu (coalesce to '', not EN) so the field recheck stays a strict
subset of the GIN vector (the S2 invariant). genres_col type_coerces the coalesce
to JSONB so the GIN `.contains` survives.
- browse.py: `lang` param on /library, /facets, /item, /show (validated to en|hu).
unified_library title/vector/rank/field-scope + meta filters are language-aware
for both the movie and show branches; facets unnest the active-language genre
vocabulary (jsonb_typeof guard kept); detail endpoints serve HU title/summary/
genres/show_title with EN fallback. Episodes stay EN (not overlay-localized).
IMDb-only rating (folded-in S5b review #5):
- detail.py rich_detail: drop the audienceRating/rating fallback → imdb_rating is
NULL when there's no imdb:// Rating entry (stop mislabelling a Plex audience score
as IMDb). item_detail now also serves the `rating` column (audience score;
show_detail already did) so the UI can show it when there's no IMDb score.
Tests: test_plex_lang.py (HU title serving + EN fallback, language-specific facet
vocabulary, genre-filter language matching, item_detail lang + rating split);
test_plex_detail updated for IMDb-only. DB-lane suite 293 passed / 2 skipped; ruff clean.
Applies the three findings from the /code-review high pass on this stack:
1. to_tsquery_str moved from app.feedquery to app.utils — it's a generic
tsquery sanitizer with no feed dependency; housing it in the feed
read-model coupled the Plex browse module to the feed domain. Both feed
and plex now import it from the neutral util module.
2. feedquery.decode_cursor no longer raises fastapi.HTTPException — it raises
a plain ValueError, and routes/feed.get_feed translates it to the HTTP 400.
The read-model no longer imports fastapi, matching its "no request state"
docstring.
3. Dropped the leading underscore on the helpers that are now a cross-module
public API: feedquery {filtered_query, sort_keys, order_by, keyset_predicate,
encode_cursor, decode_cursor}; plex.query {TS_CONFIG, FIELD_COLUMNS,
field_recheck, split_csv, added_cutoff, meta_filter_conds, apply_meta_filters,
like_escape}; plex.cards {movie_card, show_card, episode_card, leaf_card}.
Genuinely-internal helpers (_channel_url, _saved_expr, _ADDED_WINDOWS,
_lib_key) keep their underscore.
Pure code motion + rename. DB-lane suite 287 passed / 2 skipped; ruff clean.
Second half of the 2026-08-17 review's "Plex query/cards extraction" — slim
the 1841-line browse.py god-module ahead of S6 (which reworks the library
query's column selection for the HU overlay).
- app/plex/cards.py: the pure grid/leaf card serializers (_movie_card,
_show_card, _episode_card, _leaf_card).
- app/plex/query.py: the library query-shaping layer — field-scope tsvector
rechecks (_TS_CONFIG, _FIELD_COLUMNS, _field_recheck) and the shared sidebar
metadata filters (_csv, _added_cutoff, _meta_filter_conds, _apply_meta_filters,
LibraryFilters, _like_escape). This is the seam S6 will touch.
browse.py imports both and keeps its route handlers; the entangled
collection/playlist card cluster (_collection_source/_collection_editable)
stays put deliberately. All helpers were browse-internal, so no external
importers change. Pure code motion — DB-lane suite 287 passed / 2 skipped;
ruff clean. browse.py 1841 -> 1667 lines.
Address the /code-review high finding on S5b: gating the info-page cast enrich on
`people_enriched_at is None` removed the old per-view regrow of `cast_names`, so a routine full sync
that reset it to the listing top-20 (`_apply_facet_fields`) — while never clearing people_enriched_at —
left it permanently truncated, silently dropping cast past the top ~20 from the S4 person-page filter.
Root fix: `_apply_facet_fields` now only takes the listing's cast for a NOT-yet-enriched row; an
enriched row keeps its fuller stored cast (people_text still rebuilt from the updated directors + the
preserved cast). Makes the people_enriched_at flag the endpoints/backfill trust actually reliable.
Tests: cast_names preserved for an enriched row vs applied for a fresh one; show_detail lazy-fill
persists imdb/full_cast on first view. Full suite green.
Persist the info-page rich fields that were previously read LIVE from plex.metadata() on every view —
imdb_rating (IMDb-specific, vs `rating`=audienceRating), imdb_id, tagline, and full_cast
([{name,role,thumb}]) — onto plex_items/plex_shows, and serve the detail endpoints from the row.
- migration 0065: ADD imdb_rating/imdb_id/tagline/full_cast (nullable → no rewrite/lock, unlike 0064);
NULL people_enriched_at on movie/show rows so the existing cast backfill re-fetches each once and
fills the new columns.
- new app/plex/detail.py: rich_detail(meta) (moved out of browse._rich_meta so sync + serve share one
parser) + apply_rich_detail(row, meta); wired into _enrich_people_batch and the info-page lazy fill.
- item_detail: movies serve cast/IMDb/tagline/genres from the row and keep plex.metadata(markers=True)
ONLY for markers + audio/subtitle streams (so detail survives a live-Plex outage); episodes (never
enriched) still parse detail from that live meta.
- show_detail: serves cast/IMDb from the row; `related` stays live best-effort and also lazily fills a
not-yet-enriched show.
- tests: rich_detail/apply_rich_detail parsing + persistence, backfill stamping, item_detail
outage-resilience + lazy fill + episode-live, show_detail row serving. Full suite 285 pass / 2 skip;
migration verified reversible (up→down→up).
Precondition for S6's pure-DB language-aware serving.
- Correctness: _sync_overlay now first-wins on a guid (a `seen` set) so a duplicate HU entry
sharing a guid can't overwrite the applied Hungarian metadata or double-count `overlaid`.
- Test-coverage: cover the earlier dup-guid fix (both editions of a shared-guid pair get *_hu,
counted once) and the guid-keep guard (_apply_item preserves a prior guid when the listing
carries none, still updates on a real one).
Full backend suite 276 passed / 2 skipped.
- Correctness (stale HU): _sync_overlay is now a full reconcile — it clears every guid-bearing EN
row's *_hu first, then repopulates the matches, so a title whose HU twin vanished or was re-guid'd
falls back to EN instead of keeping stale Hungarian metadata (only rows that held HU data go dirty).
- Correctness (dup guid): by_guid maps a guid to the LIST of EN rows carrying it, so two editions of
one film both receive the overlay instead of just the last-iterated one.
- Robustness (guid wipe): _apply_item/_sync_shows keep a prior guid when a listing carries none
(`_canonical_guid(meta) or row.guid`), so a server ignoring includeGuids can't erase the match key.
- Reuse: merged _sync_overlay's movie/show branches (only the select + item_type differ).
- Test-coverage: a full-sync test drives sync() over a stub Plex (sections + section_items +
overlay_map) asserting pass-2 designation (metadata_lang/overlay_of), guid capture, the HU write,
and browse exclusion; plus a reconcile test that a vanished twin clears stale *_hu.
Full backend suite 274 passed / 2 skipped.
Adds the storage + sync for the Hungarian-metadata overlay (the browsable EN sections gain HU
twin fields written from a paired HU section, matched by guid; no browsable HU rows).
Schema (2 migrations, ADD-only; run before the first HU sync while *_hu is NULL so the generated
column build is trivial):
- 0063: plex_libraries.metadata_lang ('en' default) + self-FK overlay_of.
- 0064: plex_items/plex_shows.guid (indexed) + title_hu/summary_hu/genres_hu (+ GIN) + a STORED
generated search_vector_hu mirroring the EN vector (title_hu A / people_text B / summary_hu C) + GIN.
Sync:
- includeGuids=1 on section_items so the canonical guid rides the cheap listing.
- _canonical_guid(meta) (tmdb > imdb > tvdb) captured onto every EN row in _apply_item/_sync_shows.
- Two-pass sync(): pass 1 mirrors browsable (non-overlay) sections; pass 2 reads plex_overlay_map
('huKey:enKey', new sysconfig), designates each HU section (metadata_lang='hu' + overlay_of), and
_sync_overlay writes title_hu/summary_hu/genres_hu onto the guid-matched EN rows.
Browse: _content_libs now excludes overlay libraries (overlay_of is None); the unified_library and
facets inline library partitions fold into it, and list_libraries/collections exclude overlays too.
Tests: DB-lane coverage of the overlay write (matched vs unmatched rows, no browsable HU rows, the
generated search_vector_hu populates), the guid parse, and the browse exclusion. Full suite 272
passed; migrations verified reversible (upgrade→downgrade→upgrade). S5b (persist the live detail
fields + serve item/show detail from DB) is the follow-up.
- by_rating_key: generic-typed (type[_M] -> _M | None) so call sites keep their
Model | None static type.
- Migrate the last 2 open-coded PlexCollection-by-rating_key lookups (sync.py
resync_collection + delete_collection_local) to by_rating_key; zero open-coded
rating_key lookups now remain in the package.
- Add test_playlist_bulk_add_and_remove covering the bulk add/remove endpoints
and pinning the remove-bulk synchronize_session=False path.
Full suite 258 passed, 2 skipped; ruff clean.
- Restore synchronize_session=False on the remove-bulk Core delete (the 2.0
default is 'auto'; keep the pre-conversion contract explicit).
- _episode_nav: list(...scalars()) instead of [r[0] for r in ...all()], matching
the house style used across the conversion.
- Extract app/plex/lookups.by_rating_key() and migrate the get-by-rating_key
pattern at 13 sites (imgcache x4, _shared.item_or_404, playback show/season,
browse x6).
- Coverage: add TestFacetsWithData (the converted wsq aggregation with real
data — the highest-risk untested builder), TestPlaylistAndCollectionEndpoints
(playlist CRUD + collections list), and an item-state playback test.
Full suite 256 passed, 2 skipped; ruff clean.
Completes the plex-package 1.x->2.0 conversion, behaviour-equivalent (full
suite 253 passed, 2 skipped; the characterization net locks every path):
- routes/plex/browse.py (61 sites): libraries, facets (the wsq builder +
jsonb genre unnest), collections, playlists (+ bulk add/remove/reorder),
seasons, people/cards, collection strips, episode-nav, item detail, and
the unified_library union builder.
- plex/rollup.py: agg_subquery now returns a select(); state_map executes it
(the atomic unit coupled to unified_library via .subquery()).
Query builders -> select(); .filter/.filter_by -> .where; terminals ->
db.execute(...).scalars()/.all()/db.scalar(...); bulk .delete()/.update() ->
execute(delete()/update()). Zero db.query()/.filter_by remain in the package.
Mechanical 1.x->2.0 conversion of the self-contained plex modules, behaviour-
equivalent (the characterization net + existing plex tests stay green, 39
passed): app/plex/{sync(15),watch_sync(9),people(1),imgcache(4)} and
app/routes/plex/{admin(4),playback(8),_shared(1)}. Query builders become
select(); .first()/.all()->execute().scalars(); a bulk .update() ->
execute(update()); a single-column .first() -> db.scalar().
browse.py (61) + rollup.agg_subquery (the atomic unit with unified_library)
remain for wave 2.
Layering cleanup, no behaviour change (ruff clean backend+scripts, pytest 193):
- Invert the scheduler->routes dependency: reset_demo_state (+ its demo-seed
helpers) move from routes/admin.py to a new service module app/demo.py.
Both routes/admin.py and scheduler.py now import it from app.demo, so the
scheduler no longer reaches into the routes layer — its lazy import (the
routes<->scheduler cycle workaround) is gone, hoisted to a top-level import.
- Publish the private symbols that were imported across module boundaries (the
underscore convention was lying): feed._serialize -> serialize,
feed._to_tsquery_str -> to_tsquery_str, videos._insert_stubs -> insert_stubs,
videos._stub_from_playlist_item -> stub_from_playlist_item,
worker._uploader_url -> uploader_url, plex._shared._item_or_404 ->
item_or_404. Scoped renames — the 5 other route modules keep their own truly
private _serialize helpers.
- _release_asset moves from routes/downloads.py to app/downloads/service.py as
the public release_asset (asset bookkeeping is a service concern); the routes
call it via service.release_asset.
