radoslav-orlov: "create lossy copies of lossless tracks" only recognized FLAC, even though ALAC/
WAV/AIFF/DSD are now quality-profile formats. the FLAC knowledge was hardcoded in 3 separate
places (the import path, the Lossy Converter scan, and the fix executor) — exactly how a format
gets added in one spot but not another.
kettui-style fix — one canonical seam both sites route through, instead of 3 more string edits:
- new core/quality/lossless.py: is_lossless_format / is_lossless_audio_path (pure; injects a
codec probe for the ambiguous .m4a/.mp4 — ALAC vs AAC — so the decision stays testable with no
I/O), LOSSLESS_FORMATS (single source of truth, derived-consistent with model.tier_score), and
the lossy_output_would_overwrite_source safety invariant.
- create_lossy_copy + the Lossy Converter scan + repair_worker._fix_missing_lossy_copy all route
through it. SQL pre-filters by candidate extensions, then each file is confirmed (probing .m4a).
- SAFETY: a lossy copy must never be written over its own source — an .m4a ALAC source + AAC
target lands on the same .m4a path, and ffmpeg runs with -y. all three sites now bail on the
overwrite case BEFORE ffmpeg (the existing delete-original guard was too late — the source was
already clobbered). dropped a vestigial mutagen FLAC import; updated FLAC-only UI strings.
19 tests: full seam coverage (formats, the .m4a ALAC/AAC probe branch, candidate extensions, the
overwrite guard), a tier-model consistency test that fails if the lossless set drifts, and import-
site wiring tests — WAV now converts (was rejected), and the .m4a-ALAC+AAC overwrite case proves
ffmpeg NEVER runs. 286 quality/import/repair tests green, ruff clean.
two field reports:
1) FIX-ALL skipped these findings — bulk_fix_findings() has a hardcoded fixable_types
allowlist that didn't include 'short_preview_track'. added it, so select-all/fix-all and
the per-page bulk-fix now cover this tool.
2) RE-WISHLISTED ITEM WAS ART-LESS — the payload pulled album art from the library thumb,
which is empty for un-enriched HiFi previews, so the wishlist orb showed initials (no album
OR artist image, since the orb falls back to album art). now the duration lookup also
captures the metadata source's CDN art from raw_data (spotify album.images / itunes
artworkUrl, upscaled) and stores it on the finding; the fix prefers that over the empty thumb.
3 new tests (art capture from spotify raw_data, itunes artwork upscale, fix uses finding art);
8 job tests + repair suite green.
HiFi (and occasionally other) downloads sometimes deliver a ~30s preview clip instead of the
full song; it lands in the library looking real. new repair job scans short tracks (duration
<= 30s, configurable), looks up the EXPECTED length from the track's metadata source
(spotify/itunes/mb get_track_details), and flags any whose real length is much longer than the
file (default: >= 30s longer) as a preview clip.
approving the finding (repair_worker._fix_short_preview_track) deletes the preview file (path
resolved via _resolve_file_path like the other delete tools), drops the DB row so the track
goes missing, and re-adds it to the wishlist with the full payload (mirrors _fix_dead_file)
so the real version downloads. scan ONLY creates findings — nothing destructive without user
approval, like every other tool.
conservative: genuine short tracks (source agrees they're short) and tracks whose length can't
be verified are skipped, never flagged. registered the job + finding-type label/fix-button in
the UI. 5 tests (scan flag/skip/scope + fix delete+remove+wishlist); 89 repair tests green.
repair_worker had TWO _fix_quality_upgrade methods; the legacy one (expecting
expected_title/_fix_action) shadowed the new findings-based one (matched_track_
data), so applying a Quality Upgrade finding failed live with "No title/artist".
The "remove dead functions" refactor missed it. Merge into a single handler:
matched_track_data -> wishlist (safe pattern, no auto-delete on redownload) plus
_fix_action='delete' -> remove file + row. Also drops the duplicate dispatch key.
test_quality_upgrade: the pure-decision tests called deleted helpers
(meets_preferred_quality / classify_track_quality / preferred_quality_floor /
RANK_*). Rewire them to the shared v3 API (targets_from_profile +
quality_meets_profile); drop the few that only pinned deleted internals; update
the scan stubs for the new resolve_library_file_path/_read_file_ids signatures.

Reorganize leaves a cover.jpg (and other leftovers) behind when it moves an album,
and the Empty Folder Cleaner is too conservative to sweep them. Two complementary
fixes over one shared 'residual file' predicate (core/library/residual_files.py:
junk + cover/scan images + lyric/metadata sidecars), so both features agree on what
a dead folder is.
1. Reorganize (proactive): _delete_album_sidecars now sweeps ALL residual files when
a source dir has no audio left — previously only a fixed list of cover NAMES, so
back.jpg / disc.png / .webp survived and kept the folder un-prunable.
2. Empty Folder Cleaner (the request): new opt-in 'Remove Residual Files' setting
(default off) treats a folder holding only images/sidecars/junk as removable —
cleans the existing backlog + arbitrary names. Auto-renders as a UI toggle.
Safe by construction: whitelist-only (a booklet.pdf / video / .txt is real content
and kept), reorganize sweep gated on no-audio, cleaner re-checks at apply time.
20 new tests; 272 reorganize/repair/empty-folder green.
paksenkin: TZ=Australia/Sydney made the Cache Maintenance job (and any repair
job) run every ~5s. Root cause: finished_at is written by SQLite CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
(always UTC) but the scheduler compared it against datetime.now() (naive LOCAL),
so the local↔UTC offset leaked into the elapsed time. Sydney (+11) made every job
look ~11h stale -> always due -> fired every poll; the Americas (behind UTC)
deflated it and masked the bug (why New_York 'worked').
Fix: compare in UTC. now = datetime.now(timezone.utc), and a new _hours_since()
helper parses the naive CURRENT_TIMESTAMP string AS UTC before subtracting — so
the machine timezone never affects scheduling. 5 tests incl. the literal repro
(a just-run job must not be due under Australia/Sydney) and a due-detection
sanity check; 41 repair-worker tests pass, ruff clean.
Replaces the wishlist-only Quality Scanner with a proper Library Maintenance
job that produces actionable findings — same model as the AcoustID/orphan
tools, per user request ("mach ein finding wie jedes anderes Tool").
- New core/repair_jobs/quality_upgrade_scanner.py: iterates DB library
tracks, resolves each path via the shared resolver (now index-0 correct for
relative library paths), probes REAL audio quality with the same
probe_audio_quality the download import guard uses, and checks it against the
user's v3 ranked targets via quality_meets_profile (strict — no extension
guessing, no fallback). Below-profile tracks become 'quality_upgrade'
findings with current vs target quality in details.
- repair_worker._fix_quality_upgrade: redownload (wishlist + delete file/row),
delete (file + row), or ignore (dismiss in UI). Registered in _execute_fix
dispatch + bulk fixable_types.
- Frontend (enrichment.js): 'Low Quality' type label, 'Upgrade' fix button, a
3-way _promptQualityUpgradeAction modal (Re-download / Delete / Ignore),
wired into both single-finding fix and bulk-fix (Ignore → dismiss inline).
- Tools "Quality Scanner" button now triggers Run Now of this job and points
the user to Library Maintenance → Findings.
The old standalone /api/quality-scanner endpoints are left intact (unused by the
button) to avoid churn. Verified: job registers, fix handler dispatches.

The old Quality Scanner tool judged quality by file EXTENSION only (a 128k and a
320k MP3 looked identical), ignored the bitrate-based quality profile, used min()
of enabled tiers so the default profile flagged the ENTIRE non-lossless library,
and auto-dumped every match into the wishlist with no review.
This new repair job does it properly:
- meets_preferred_quality(): pure, bitrate-AWARE decision honoring every enabled
quality bucket (320 MP3 passes a FLAC+320+256 profile; 128 MP3 doesn't). Floor
is the worst enabled bucket, not the best.
- scans watchlist artists or whole library, finds below-quality tracks, matches a
better version at scan time (reusing the existing tested match helpers), emits a
FINDING showing the match + confidence. Off by default; nothing auto-queued.
- _fix_quality_upgrade apply handler adds the matched track WITH album context to
the wishlist — the user-approved version of what the old tool did silently.
- Transcode/fake-lossless detection intentionally left to the existing Fake
Lossless Detector job.
12 seam tests incl. a regression pinning the default-profile flooding bug. The old
tool is still in place; removing it + rewiring its automation action is the next step.
A maintenance job to keep the music library tidy — finds empty folders left behind
by imports/relocations/deletions (empty artist/album dirs, or dirs holding only OS
junk like .DS_Store/Thumbs.db) and removes them.
Safety is the focus (deleting directories is destructive):
- only TRULY empty folders are flagged — a folder with a cover image or any audio
is never touched; only OS-junk files count as "no real content" (a setting),
- the library root + symlinked dirs are never removed,
- walks bottom-up so a parent left empty by its removable children cascades,
- the apply handler RE-CHECKS emptiness at delete time, so a folder that gained a
file between scan and apply is left alone.
dir_is_removable + remove_empty_folder are pure/injectable seams. Wired through the
job registry, repair_worker apply handler (_fix_empty_folder), fixable-types, and
the findings UI. Opt-in (default off), weekly interval.
Tests (10): removable decision (empty / real-file / surviving-subdir / junk-only /
strict mode) + apply re-check (removes empty + junk, refuses content/root/symlink).
Repair + integrity suites green; ruff clean.
Post-processing applies ReplayGain only to slskd/WebUI downloads — content added
via Lidarr, the REST API, or by hand never got it, and there was no way to (re)apply
RG to existing tracks or fix ones where analysis failed (raised in #437 + comments).
New ReplayGain Filler repair job (sibling of Lyrics/Cover Art fillers): scans for
tracks with no ReplayGain track-gain tag and creates a finding per track; the scan
only READS tags (cheap) and no-ops when ffmpeg is absent. Applying a finding runs
the same ffmpeg ebur128 analysis the import pipeline uses (gain = ref - LUFS) and
writes the RG tags in place — no moves, no re-matching. Opt-in (default off),
schedulable like the other maintenance jobs.
Wired: job registry, repair_worker apply handler (_fix_missing_replaygain) +
fixable-types, and the findings UI (label / fix-button / detail rows).
Tests: pure needs_replaygain decision (missing/blank/present/+0.00-is-tagged) +
the apply handler's analyze→compute→write seam with the pipeline gain formula,
ffmpeg-absent + missing-file guards, and registration. 93 repair tests green.
The 'retag' fix corrects a mismatched file's tags/DB but leaves it in the WRONG
artist/album folder, so the library shows the right title while the file sits under
the previous track. AcoustID yields only title+artist (no reliable album), so an
in-place move has no safe target.
New 'relocate' action: retag the file, move it into Staging, drop the stale tracks
row, and clean up the emptied folder. The auto-import worker (which watches Staging)
re-identifies it with full metadata and files it correctly — reusing the import
pipeline instead of guessing a destination.
- core/repair_jobs/relocate.py: pure, injectable orchestration (retag -> move ->
drop row) + collision-safe staging_destination. Row is dropped only AFTER a
successful move, so a failed move never orphans the library entry.
- _fix_acoustid_mismatch gains the 'relocate' branch (thin wrapper: resolve path,
staging dir, drop-row closure, empty-parent cleanup).
- UI: "Relocate" button on the AcoustID-mismatch fix modal.
Tests (8): staging-dest collision suffixing; relocate happy path; tag-write failure
still relocates; FAILED move does NOT drop the row; no-tags skips write; a real
file move through safe_move_file; and a handler integration test (file moved to
staging + tracks row deleted end-to-end). Repair + integrity suites green.
THE bug behind "embeds art but never writes cover.jpgs": _fix_missing_cover_art
passed `details['album_folder']` (= dirname of the raw DB path, e.g. Jellyfin's
/data/music/...) as the target folder. That path doesn't exist inside the
SoulSync container — only the resolved /app/... path does. So apply_art_to_album_
files' `os.path.isdir(target_dir)` was False and the ENTIRE cover.jpg block was
silently skipped: embedding still worked (it uses the resolved paths) and the DB
thumb updated, but the sidecar was never written. Exactly Sokhi's symptom + the
"Cover art already present — database thumbnail updated" toast (cover_written
stayed False).
Fix:
- _fix_missing_cover_art: derive the folder from the RESOLVED file
(os.path.dirname(resolved[0])), never the raw album_folder.
- apply_art_to_album_files: bulletproof it — if the passed folder doesn't exist,
fall back to the real directory of the files instead of silently skipping.
Tests: a non-existent folder still writes cover.jpg to the real file dir. 1348
cover/art/repair tests pass.
Sokhi: after the earlier flag fix, scans returned 0 matches — albums with
embedded art but no cover.jpg were treated as fully arted and skipped, so their
cover.jpg never got written.
Root cause: the scan used album_has_art_on_disk (True if EITHER embedded art OR
a cover.jpg exists), conflating the two. Now it checks them separately:
- a local album is flagged if it lacks embedded art, OR it lacks a cover.jpg
sidecar AND cover.jpg writing is enabled (metadata_enhancement.cover_art_
download — Boulder: "only scan for cover.jpgs when enabled").
- an album that has embedded art but no sidecar is fixable even when the API
finds no art: the apply writes cover.jpg from the EXISTING embedded art.
apply_art_to_album_files now writes the cover.jpg sidecar by extracting the
album's own embedded art (new extract_embedded_art) — consistent with the
files, no API call — and only falls back to download_cover_art when there's
nothing embedded to extract. _fix_missing_cover_art no longer bails on a
missing artwork_url when sidecar_from_embedded is set.
Tests: scan flags embedded-but-no-cover.jpg (incl. when API finds nothing),
still skips albums with both, still flags artless albums; apply writes cover.jpg
from embedded art (no download), falls back to download when none, skips when a
sidecar already exists; extract_embedded_art unit tests. 1344 cover/art/repair
tests pass.
The real reason Sokhi's cover-art fix "didn't work" and Boulder saw the same
message on a WRITABLE Windows box: _fix_missing_cover_art reported
"Updated database thumbnail, but could not write art to files (read-only?)"
whenever embedded==0 AND cover_written==False — but the overwhelmingly common
cause of that is every file ALREADY having embedded art (skipped, not failed).
The message blamed read-only on a perfectly writable library, which sent us
chasing a read-only ghost across three commits. Sokhi's /fix returns 200
(success), so he was never hitting the genuine EROFS path at all.
Now the message is derived from the art_result breakdown:
- embedded/cover written → "Applied cover art: …"
- failed>0 (non-EROFS) → "… check file/folder permissions"
- skipped>0 (already arted) → "Cover art already present on all N file(s)"
- otherwise → "no file artwork was applied"
Genuine read-only (EROFS) still hard-fails with the clear mount message.
Tests: already-arted→present (not read-only), failed→permissions, EROFS→hard
fail, embedded→success. 453 cover/repair/art tests pass.
A Library Maintenance job that cleans up downloads tracked by Download Origins
once they pass a per-origin retention window — findings by default, opt-in
auto-delete.
A download is only ever proposed for deletion when ALL hold: older than its
origin's retention, NOT still in an actively-mirrored playlist / watched
artist, and played fewer than the keep-threshold (default 2 → "played more
than once is kept"). Only touches downloads recorded from the Download Origins
feature forward — never pre-existing or manual library.
- core/library/expired_cleanup.py: pure decision core (retention_cutoff,
is_expired, select_expired) — no DB/clock, fully tested. play_count is the
reliable listen signal (last_played is often unpopulated, so recency isn't
used).
- ExpiredDownloadCleanerJob: gathers facts (play_count via a new
get_origin_cleanup_candidates join; active-mirror via get_mirrored_playlists;
watch via get_watchlist_artists) and either creates 'expired_download'
findings or, with auto_delete on, deletes in-scan. Default OFF, both
retentions default 'off'. Settings auto-render in the Library Maintenance
panel (same as Cover Art / Lyrics / Re-tag).
- delete_origin_download(): shared delete (resolve path → remove file → drop
track row → drop history row); a file that won't delete keeps its row +
reports. Used by auto mode AND the _fix_expired_download apply handler.
- Frontend: type/action ('Delete')/result labels + finding detail render.
Tests: 9 on the pure brain (windows, off, per-origin, protected, play-count
threshold, bad age) + 7 on the job (no-op when off, findings, mirror/watch
protection, auto-delete, delete helper missing/real file). 185 repair/origin
tests pass.
Sokhi got a read-only error from the cover-art filler with NO ':ro' in his
compose. Root cause: my earlier Tim fix added a statvfs pre-flight that bailed
when f_flag & ST_RDONLY — but union/FUSE/network filesystems (mergerfs,
rclone, NFS), ubiquitous in self-hosted setups, misreport those mount flags.
A perfectly writable library could be flagged read-only and blocked. statvfs
is a guess; the only honest test is whether an actual write raises EROFS.
- Removed the statvfs pre-flight entirely. Read-only is now detected solely
from a real EROFS on the embed write, which also fast-fails the remaining
files (so no statvfs needed for the fast-fail Tim wanted either).
- Broadened the user message: a genuine read-only mount isn't always ':ro' —
could be a read-only host/NFS/SMB mount or a mergerfs read-only branch.
Tests: writable FS succeeds even when statvfs would claim read-only (the
regression), real-EROFS-on-write still flagged + bails the rest, EACCES still
not conflated with EROFS. Dropped the now-moot Windows-statvfs test (statvfs
is no longer referenced). 445 art/cover/repair tests pass.
Lock-in pass caught a real bug in 1051ef24: the retag lyrics path stuffed the
library title/artist into a plan's db_data to feed the lyrics query — but
db_data is exactly what write_tags_to_file writes ("only writes fields that
have DB values"). So an UNMATCHED track (one with no source match, meant to
get art/lyrics only) would have had its title/artist tags overwritten from
the library values — an unintended tag write on a track we never verified.
Fix: each plan now carries a separate READ-ONLY lyrics_meta
({title, artist, album}) sourced from the library track + album scope, kept
entirely out of db_data. apply_track_plans reads lyrics_meta for the query
(db_data fallback for older plans); unmatched plans keep db_data={} so no tags
are written. _fix_library_retag threads lyrics_meta through the manual-apply
path too.
Tests: +1 regression pinning that an unmatched lyrics plan calls
write_tags_to_file with EMPTY db_data (no title/artist leak) while still
fetching lyrics. 70 lyrics/retag/repair tests pass.
The lyrics sibling of the Cover Art Filler, plus retag integration — reusing
the existing LyricsClient (LRClib) the import pipeline already uses.
- lyrics_client: extracted the LRClib fetch (exact-match-with-duration →
search fallback) into a shared _fetch_remote_lyrics, used by both
create_lrc_file (unchanged behavior) and a new check-only has_remote_lyrics.
- MissingLyricsJob (core/repair_jobs/missing_lyrics.py): scans tracks with no
.lrc sidecar and — Option A — only flags ones LRClib actually has lyrics
for, so instrumentals/interludes are never surfaced or re-flagged. Registered
in the job list; default OFF; respects the lrclib_enabled toggle.
- _fix_missing_lyrics (repair_worker): applies a finding by fetching + writing
the .lrc and embedding lyrics via create_lrc_file.
- Re-tag tool: new 'lyrics' setting ('fetch'|'skip', default skip). When
'fetch', apply_track_plans now also fetches/refreshes the .lrc per track
(fetch-if-missing, re-embed-if-exists) — threaded through scan gates, finding
details, the auto-apply path, and the manual fix handler. Settings UI
auto-renders the dropdown from setting_options; no markup needed.
- Frontend: type/action/result labels for missing_lyrics + a finding detail
render case.
Tests: 12 — has_remote_lyrics truth table, sidecar detection, scan (only-
fixable / skip-existing / lrclib-disabled), the apply handler, and retag
lyrics_action on/off. 694 repair/lyrics/cover/retag tests pass.
Pache711: a cover-art finding showed the (correct) found album art next to a
(wrong) artist image with one "Apply Art" button — no way to take one and
skip the other. Turned out "Apply Art" only ever applied ALBUM art anyway;
the artist image was display-only context, so the bundling was an illusion
the UI created.
Now the finding is genuinely multi-target:
- scan (missing_cover_art.py): also searches for an artist image (always, so
a WRONG existing one can be replaced — Boulder's call), name-matched
exactly. Stored as found_artist_url only when it differs from the current
artist thumb, so nothing is offered when there's nothing to change.
- apply (_fix_missing_cover_art): honors a target via _fix_action —
'album' (default, unchanged "Apply Art" behavior: DB thumb + embed +
cover.jpg), 'artist' (the artist's DB image), or 'both'. New _fix_artist_art
sets artists.thumb_url for the album's artist.
- UI: each found image gets its own apply button — "Use for album" /
"Use for artist". Applying either resolves the finding, so taking the
correct one and ignoring the wrong one IS "fix one, dismiss the other".
Current artist art shows as "(current)" context with no button.
Default stays album-only, so the plain Apply Art button and every existing
caller behave exactly as before. Tests: 5 on the apply targets (artist-only /
album-only / default / both / missing-url) against a real SQLite DB, plus the
existing cover-art suite updated for the new artist search. 107 repair/
cover-art/UI-integrity tests pass.
Tim (Discord): cover-art automation fails with '[Errno 30] Read-only file
system' on every file; he chmod 777'd and nothing changed — because EROFS is
the KERNEL refusing writes to a docker ':ro' volume mount, which no chmod
can fix. SoulSync's response was a wall of per-file warnings and a fix
result that still said success with a soft "(read-only?)" hint.
- apply_art_to_album_files now pre-flights the album folder with statvfs
(asks the kernel, writes nothing): a read-only mount short-circuits the
whole album instead of failing file by file. Belt: a per-file/cover EROFS
(overlay quirks where statvfs lies) still sets the flag.
- the repair worker's apply now FAILS the finding with the actual cure:
"remove ':ro' from the volume mapping and recreate the container — chmod
cannot change this". EACCES (a real permissions problem chmod CAN fix)
deliberately keeps the old soft path.
Tests: RO mount short-circuits before any file/cover write, save-time EROFS
still flagged, EACCES not conflated with EROFS. 29 art/repair tests pass.
- depth setting (light = core tags + matched source ids; full = same
multi-source enrichment cascade a fresh download gets, run additively
via embed_source_ids). Threaded through scan/finding/auto-apply and the
repair_worker fix handler.
- source now defaults to 'auto' (= your source priority / active source)
instead of blank.
- give native <option> popups a solid dark background (were white-on-white).
- tests for full-depth full_meta payload + enrich invocation + light no-op.
The job was the odd one out — auto_fix=False, no dry_run setting, so it never
showed the 'Dry Run' badge the other jobs do (the badge keys off
settings.dry_run === true). Aligned it to the standard pattern:
- auto_fix=True + dry_run setting defaulting True. Default behavior is unchanged
(findings only, nothing written) AND it now shows the Dry Run badge.
- Turning dry_run off makes the scan auto-apply in place (result.auto_fixed),
no finding — the opt-in 'just retag it' mode.
- Extracted a shared apply_track_plans() used by both the scan auto-apply and
the repair_worker fix handler (handler now resolves Docker paths then
delegates — one code path, no duplication).
Tests: dry_run=False auto-applies + writes + no finding; existing dry-run
finding/skip/apply tests still green. 410 passing.
New 'Library Re-tag' repair job (default-OFF, opt-in; weekly when enabled):
- Scans every source-matched album (spotify/itunes/deezer/musicbrainz album id),
pulls fresh metadata + tracklist from that source, reads each local track's
current tags, and uses the planner to compute per-field diffs.
- Dry-run by design: scan only CREATES findings — nothing touches a file. Each
finding is highly detailed: per-track old->new for every changed field, the
source used, the mode, a cover-art action, and any unmatched tracks, plus a
summary description. Settings: mode (overwrite | fill_missing), cover_art
(replace | fill_missing | skip), source override.
- Apply handler (_fix_library_retag in repair_worker): writes each track's
planned tags in place via tag_writer.write_tags_to_file (+ batch-embeds cover,
refreshes cover.jpg). Only adds/overwrites planned fields — no moves/renames/
re-match. Resolves Docker paths; read-only/unreachable files counted, never
crash. Media-server-only / unreachable tracks are skipped.
Registered in the job list + fix dispatch. The old per-download Retag Tool is
left untouched alongside this for now.
Previously the filler only flagged albums whose DB thumb_url was empty and, on
apply, only updated that DB thumb_url — so albums whose files had no embedded
art and no cover.jpg (but whose DB row had a URL) were never found, and even
'applying' art never touched the files. That's the reported 'doesn't scan all
albums' gap.
New core.metadata.art_apply (reuses the post-processing standard so the user's
album_art_order is honored):
- album_has_art_on_disk(): cheap-first check — folder cover.jpg/folder.jpg
sidecar, then embedded art in a representative track (FLAC/ID3/MP4/Vorbis).
- apply_art_to_album_files(): embeds via embed_album_art_metadata + writes
cover.jpg via download_cover_art; only ADDS art (never rewrites the user's
tags); read-only/unwritable files are skipped + counted, never crash.
Scan now examines every titled album and flags it when art is missing in the DB
OR on disk. Apply embeds into the album's audio files + writes cover.jpg in
addition to the DB thumbnail (media-server-only albums fall back to DB-only).
Tests cover sidecar/embedded detection, the cheap-first short-circuit, and the
apply orchestration (embeds each file + cover.jpg; read-only failures counted).
The canonical source_selection setting was rendering as a free-text box — easy
to typo an invalid mode. Added a generic choice mechanism so it's a dropdown:
- RepairJob.setting_options: {key: [allowed values]} (default {} — opt-in).
- CanonicalVersionResolveJob declares source_selection's three modes.
- repair_worker.get_all_job_info() includes setting_options in the job payload.
- enrichment.js renders a <select> (options prettified, current value selected)
for any key listed in setting_options; everything else renders by value type
as before. The save path already reads <select>.value as a string, so no
change needed there.
Generic — any future job can get dropdowns the same way. Jobs that don't
declare setting_options are untouched (empty dict -> existing input rendering).
Tests: source_selection exposes the 3 options and its default is one of them.
23 repair-job/worker + canonical tests pass (other jobs unaffected).
The Duplicate Detector's 'Keep Best' auto-selection ranked copies by highest
bitrate -> duration -> track number, with no notion of format. A FLAC whose
bitrate the library scan never populated (a common gap) therefore lost to a
282 kbps MP3: 282 > 0, so the MP3 was kept and the FLAC deleted (reported on
Havok 'Prepare For Attack', and again on Kendrick GNX).
Fix: rank by format/lossless tier FIRST, then bitrate, duration, track number.
A lossless file now always beats a lossy one regardless of the recorded
bitrate; bitrate/duration/track# only break ties within the same format.
- core/library/duplicate_keep.py (new): pure, importable pick_duplicate_to_keep
+ duplicate_keep_sort_key + format_rank_for_path (extension rank mirroring
auto_import_worker._quality_rank: flac=10 ... mp3=5 ... unknown=1).
- core/repair_worker.py: _fix_duplicates auto-pick now calls
pick_duplicate_to_keep instead of the bitrate-first max().
- webui/static/enrichment.js: the KEEP/REMOVE recommendation mirrors the same
format-first ranking so the badge matches what the backend will delete.
Parity: Python uses '.ext' keys (os.path.splitext), JS uses 'ext'
(split('.').pop()) -> identical results; both keep the first copy on a full
tie. Verified the only other dedup path (the standalone Duplicate Cleaner
automation, core/library/duplicate_cleaner.py) was already format-priority-first
and correct -- no change needed there.
Tests: tests/test_duplicate_keep.py (11 -- incl. the exact FLAC-with-missing-
bitrate vs 282 kbps MP3 case, format ranking, within-format tie-breakers, and
edge cases). 147 repair/duplicate tests still pass.
Note: why FLAC bitrate is NULL in the DB is a separate library-scan gap;
format-first ranking makes the keep decision correct regardless.
Reported bug: filling Jamiroquai's "Light Years" single pulled in
Gut's "Light Years" album tracks (different artist, completely
different genre — track titles like "Wound Fuck" and "Eat My Cum"
made the contamination obvious). The Album Completeness auto-fill
was the only file-copying path with a loose 0.50 SequenceMatcher
artist gate, which let unrelated candidates through whenever the
title matched well.
Two-stage defense now sits on the only album-fill code path
(_fix_incomplete_album in core/repair_worker.py):
- Stage 1 — _album_fill_target_artist_allows_track. Pre-search
gate: before doing any library lookup for a missing track,
refuse to operate if the missing track's source artist(s)
don't match the target album's artist. Compilation albums
(album_artist in {'various artists', 'various', 'soundtrack'})
bypass the gate so legitimate VA releases still work. Empty
source-artist metadata also bypasses for backward compat with
older missing-track records that don't carry per-track artist.
- Stage 2 — _album_fill_artist_names_match. Replaces the old
0.50 SequenceMatcher with an alias-aware 0.82 threshold that
uses core.matching.artist_aliases when available (handles
diacritic variants like Beyoncé/Beyonce and known stage names)
with a normalized-similarity fallback if the aliases module
isn't importable. Skipped candidates are logged at debug so a
later support ticket can show what was rejected and why.
Tests in tests/test_repair_worker_album_fill.py reproduce the
exact reported scenario: target album "Light Years" by Gut +
missing track from a Jamiroquai source → skipped with a logged
warning, no copy attempted, wishlist not poisoned. Second test
covers Stage 2 directly with a wrong-artist library candidate.
Existing test_perform_album_fill_copy_branch still passes.
Note: this fix prevents NEW cross-artist contamination via
Album Completeness. It does not clean up the data anomaly that
made Gut's library entry appear to have a "Light Years" album
in the first place — that's a separate data-quality issue worth
investigating if it recurs.
Closes#587. Three coordinated fixes per codex's diagnosis. AcoustID
verification gate left intact — these fixes target the upstream
scanner false-positive surface plus a separate retag-path gap.
Bug 1 — scanner used recordings[0] as authoritative
`core/repair_jobs/acoustid_scanner.py:_scan_file` only checked the
top fingerprint match's metadata. AcoustID often returns multiple
recordings per fingerprint (sample collisions, multi-MB-record
cases) and the wrong-credited recording can outrank the right-
credited one. Foxxify case 2 (Nana / Nana): top match credited the
wrong artist while a lower-ranked candidate matched the user's
expected metadata exactly.
Lifted the verifier's all-candidates check to a shared pure helper
`core/matching/acoustid_candidates.py:find_matching_recording`. Both
verifier and scanner can now ask "given these candidates, does ANY
of them match expected (title, artist)?" with the same contract.
Scanner suppresses the finding when any candidate matches.
Bug 2 — no duration check guards against fingerprint hash collisions
Foxxify case 3: 17-minute mashup edit fingerprinted to a 5-minute
late-70s Japanese hiphop track (different songs, fingerprint hash
collision on a sampled section). Scanner had no signal to detect
this and would have recommended retagging the 17-min file as the
5-min track.
`duration_mismatches_strongly` in the same helper module flags drifts
beyond max(60s, 35%). Scanner now skips findings when the candidate's
duration disagrees strongly with the file's expected duration. Loaded
duration via the existing tracks SQL (added `t.duration` to the
SELECT). Returns False when either side is unknown — no behavior
change for older rows without duration data.
Bug 3 — scanner retag bypassed multi-value ARTISTS tag setting
`core/repair_worker.py:_fix_wrong_song` called `write_tags_to_file`
with single-string artist updates. The writer only wrote TPE1
(single string) and never read the user's
`metadata_enhancement.tags.write_multi_artist` config. Multi-value
ARTISTS tags got stripped on every retag, contradicting the
post-download enrichment pipeline's behavior.
Per codex's pick (option B over routing through enhance_file_metadata),
extended `write_tags_to_file` with an optional `artists_list`
parameter. Each format-specific writer respects the config flag the
same way enrichment.py does:
- ID3: TPE1 stays as joined display string + TXXX:Artists multi-value
- Vorbis/Opus/FLAC: `artist` display string + `artists` multi-value key
- MP4: \xa9ART as list when on, single string when off
Scanner retag derives the per-artist list by splitting AcoustID's
credit through the existing `split_artist_credit` helper (same
separators the matching layer already uses).
Backward compatible: callers that don't pass `artists_list` get the
exact same single-string write as before. No regression for the
write_artist_image button or any other tag_writer caller.
15 tests on the candidate helper + duration guard.
13 tests on the tag_writer multi-value path (write/skip/single/
no-list cases for FLAC + the config-gate helper).
4 new scanner regression tests pinning lower-ranked candidate
suppression, no-suppression when no candidate matches, duration
mismatch skip, no-skip when duration matches.
Existing scanner tests updated for the new 11-column SQL select
(added duration column to fake schema + test row tuples).
Full suite: 3097 passed. Ruff clean.
Ruff S110 (try-except-pass) on the lookup inside
`_build_unresolvable_album_folder_error`. Swallowed exception is benign
(some test stubs don't expose `get_active_media_server` and we fall
back to 'unknown'), but ruff is right that bare pass is a smell.
Logger is the existing repair_worker logger, so this matches the same
"debug-log on optional-input failure" pattern used in
`core/library/path_resolver.py:_collect_base_dirs`.
GitHub issue #558: clicking Auto-Fill / Fix Selected on the Album
Completeness findings page returned a flat "Could not determine album
folder from existing tracks" error with no diagnostic. Reporter is on
Navidrome on Docker — the path resolver in
`core/library/path_resolver.py` couldn't find any of the album's tracks
on disk because Navidrome's Subsonic API doesn't expose filesystem
library paths the way Plex's API does (probed in #476). Default
settings → `library.music_paths` empty → no base directories to probe →
silent None. User had no signal about what to configure.
Not a regression of #476 — that fix targeted Plex auto-discovery and
worked correctly for it. Navidrome was never covered because the
protocol gives the resolver nothing to probe.
Fix scoped to the diagnostic surface, not auto-magic discovery:
- Added `resolve_library_file_path_with_diagnostic` returning
`(resolved, ResolveAttempt)`. ResolveAttempt records what the resolver
tried — `raw_path_existed`, `base_dirs_tried`, `had_config_manager`,
`had_plex_client`. Pure data, no rendering opinions.
- Legacy `resolve_library_file_path` becomes a thin wrapper that
drops the attempt; every existing call site is unchanged.
- `RepairWorker._fix_incomplete_album` now uses the diagnostic helper
and renders a multi-part error via `_build_unresolvable_album_folder_error`:
names the active media server, shows one sample DB-recorded path,
lists every base directory the resolver actually probed, and points
the user at Settings → Library → Music Paths as the actionable fix.
- Distinguishes empty-base-dirs vs tried-and-failed cases so the user
knows whether to add a mount or fix the existing one.
- No auto-probing of common Docker conventions (`/music`, `/media`, etc).
Speculative — could resolve to wrong dirs on the suffix-walk if a
conventional path happens to contain a partial collision. User stays
in control.
12 new tests:
- 7 in `tests/library/test_path_resolver.py`: tuple-shape contract,
raw-path-existed short-circuit, base-dirs listed even on walk
failure, had-flags reflect caller inputs, no-base-dirs returns
None with empty attempt, legacy `resolve_library_file_path`
delegates correctly across happy / suffix-walk / failure paths.
- 8 in `tests/test_repair_worker_unresolvable_folder_error.py`:
active server name in error, sample DB path verbatim, base dirs
listed, empty-base-dirs phrased differently, Settings hint always
present, defensive against None attempt / missing sample / missing
config_manager.
Full pytest sweep: 2774 passed.
- derive the destination server_source from the target album context
- write it on copied rows and retarget moved rows too
- cover the copy branch with a regression test
Mostly progress-callback try/except (caller-provided fns we don't
control) and best-effort file-move / DB-cleanup paths in the
auto-fixers. All converted to `logger.debug(...)`. No control-flow
changes.
Refs #369
Discord report: Duplicate Detector card said "372 findings" and Cover
Art Filler said "60 findings", but clicking the Findings tab's Pending
filter showed 0. User read it as "findings aren't being created" —
looked like a detector bug.
Actual cause: the badge sourced ``last_run.findings_created``
(historical "found in last scan") without considering current state.
After the user (or bulk-fix automation) resolved or dismissed those
findings, they no longer appeared on the Pending tab — but the badge
kept showing the last-scan number in red urgent styling.
Backend was correct end-to-end: detectors create pending rows,
bulk-fix moves them to resolved, Findings tab filters by status.
Only the badge display lied about current state.
Fix:
- ``RepairWorker._get_pending_count_by_job()`` — single SQL aggregation
returning ``{job_id: pending_count}`` for every job with pending
findings. O(1) lookup per job instead of N round trips.
- ``get_all_job_info()`` calls it once per request and adds
``pending_findings_count`` to each job's API response.
- ``enrichment.js`` job card now branches on the count:
- ``> 0`` → red ``"X pending"`` badge (urgent, action needed)
- ``= 0`` AND last scan found something → muted grey ``"X found in
last scan"`` (historical context, no action needed)
- New CSS class ``.repair-flow-badge.findings-historical`` for the
muted slate color so the two states are visually distinct.
User-visible result with the screenshotted state (372 dup / 60 cover-
art findings, all resolved):
- Before: red "372 findings" / "60 findings" — implied 432 things to
do, but Findings tab showed 0 pending
- After: grey "372 found in last scan" / "60 found in last scan" —
the badge text tells the user the count is historical, no surprise
when Pending is empty
Tests: 3 new tests in ``tests/test_create_finding_dedup_counter.py``
pin the per-job pending count helper:
- returns ``{job_id: count}`` based on status='pending' rows only;
resolved + dismissed rows excluded
- empty dict when no pending findings exist
- gracefully returns ``{}`` on DB error (badge falls back to
historical count via the existing JS ``or 0`` safety)
2188/2188 full suite green. Pure UI/state-display fix — no detector
logic, no backend behavior change.
`_create_finding` silently dedup-skipped re-discovered issues but
the caller incremented `findings_created` regardless. So a re-scan
that found the same issues as a prior scan reported 364 findings
in the badge while 0 NEW pending rows hit the db, leaving the
findings tab empty.
`_create_finding` now returns bool (True on insert, False on
dedup-skip / db error). All 16 repair jobs updated to only
increment `findings_created` on True. Added `findings_skipped_dedup`
counter surfaced in scan log: "Done: X scanned, 0 fixed, 0
findings (363 already existed), 0 errors".
Also fixed a missing `job_id` kwarg in album_tag_consistency that
was silently breaking finding creation for that scan.
Discord report (Samuel [KC]): tracks of the same album sometimes carry
different MUSICBRAINZ_ALBUMID tags, which causes Navidrome (and other
media servers grouping by album MBID) to split the album into multiple
entries. Two-part fix — one for existing libraries, one for the root
cause that lets new imports drift.
Part 1 — Detector + fix action (catches existing dissenters):
`core/repair_jobs/mbid_mismatch_detector.py`:
- New helpers: `_read_album_mbid_from_file` and
`_write_album_mbid_to_file` use the Picard-standard tag conventions
(`TXXX:MusicBrainz Album Id` for MP3, `MUSICBRAINZ_ALBUMID` for
FLAC/OGG, `----:com.apple.iTunes:MusicBrainz Album Id` for MP4).
- New scan phase `_scan_album_mbid_consistency` runs after the
existing track-MBID scan: groups tracks by DB `album_id`, reads
each track's embedded album MBID, finds the consensus
(most-common) MBID via `Counter`, flags dissenters. Tracks without
an album MBID at all are skipped (they don't break Navidrome —
only an explicit MBID disagreement does). Albums where MBIDs are
perfectly tied (no clear consensus) are skipped too — surface as
a manual decision instead of fixing toward a 1/N tie.
- New finding type `album_mbid_mismatch` carries `consensus_mbid`,
`wrong_mbid`, `consensus_count`, `total_tracks_with_mbid`, and a
human-readable reason string.
`core/repair_worker.py`:
- Added `'album_mbid_mismatch': self._fix_album_mbid_mismatch` to the
fix dispatch dict and to the `fixable_types` tuple so auto-fix +
bulk-fix paths pick it up.
- New `_fix_album_mbid_mismatch` method reads `consensus_mbid` from
finding details, resolves the dissenter's file path via the shared
library resolver, calls `_write_album_mbid_to_file` to rewrite the
tag in place. Doesn't touch the album's other tracks (they're
already in agreement).
Part 2 — Root cause fix (prevents new SoulSync imports from drifting):
The original in-memory `mb_release_cache` in `core/metadata/source.py`
maps `(normalized_album, artist) -> release_mbid` so per-track
enrichment of the same album hits the cache and writes the same
MUSICBRAINZ_ALBUMID to every track. That cache is bounded (4096
entries) and in-process — so cache eviction (when other albums are
processed in between) and server restart can BOTH cause
inconsistency. Per-track album-name variation (e.g. some tracks
tagged `"Album"`, others tagged `"Album (Deluxe)"`) and per-track
artist variation (features) make it worse.
`core/metadata/album_mbid_cache.py` (new module):
- DB-backed `lookup(normalized_album, artist) -> release_mbid` and
`record(...)` functions. Same key shape as the in-memory cache.
- Strict additive design: every public function is wrapped in
try/except and degrades to None / no-op on ANY database error.
The existing in-memory cache + MusicBrainz lookup remains the
authoritative fallback. If this module breaks, downloads continue
exactly as they would today.
`database/music_database.py`:
- New `mb_album_release_cache` table with composite primary key
`(normalized_album_key, artist_key)`. Reverse-lookup index on
`release_mbid` for future debug tooling. Created via the existing
`CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS` migration pattern — idempotent, no
schema version bump needed.
`core/metadata/source.py`:
- Surgical change inside the existing `embed_source_ids`
in-memory-cache-miss branch: BEFORE calling MusicBrainz, consult
the persistent cache. If a previous SoulSync run already resolved
this album's release MBID, reuse it. After a successful MB lookup,
store in BOTH caches. Both calls wrapped in defensive try/except
so any failure falls through to existing logic.
Tests:
- `tests/metadata/test_album_mbid_cache.py` — 16 cache tests:
round-trip, idempotent re-record, overwrite semantics, clear_all,
album+artist independence (no Greatest Hits collisions),
defensive None-on-empty-input, graceful degradation when the DB
is unavailable / connection raises / commit fails, schema sanity
(table + index exist after init).
- `tests/test_album_mbid_consistency.py` — 13 detector tests:
tag read/write round-trip on real FLAC files, Picard-standard tag
descriptors, defensive paths (unreadable file, empty input),
detector behavior (agreement → no flags, lone dissenter → flag,
ties → no flag, single-track albums → skipped, no-MBID tracks →
skipped, unresolvable file paths → skipped).
- `tests/metadata/test_metadata_enrichment.py` — added autouse
fixture monkeypatching the persistent cache to no-op for tests in
this file. The existing tests pin per-call MB counts and
in-memory cache state; without the fixture, persistent rows from
earlier tests would bypass the MB call. Persistent layer has its
own dedicated tests.
Verified: 1782 tests pass (29 new), ruff clean, smoke test confirms
end-to-end cache round-trip works.
WHATS_NEW entry under '2.4.2' dev cycle.
GitHub issue #476 (gabistek, Docker on Arch host): "Auto-Fill" / "Fix
Selected" on the Album Completeness findings page returned
"Could not determine album folder from existing tracks" for every album.
Reproduces on any setup where the media-server library lives outside the
SoulSync transfer/download folders — Docker is the headline case but
native installs that point Plex at a NAS via SMB hit it too.
Root cause: `core/repair_worker.py:_resolve_file_path` only probed the
transfer + download folders. Docker users have their Plex/Jellyfin
library bind-mounted at /music (or similar) — neither configured in
SoulSync. Every existing track got silently treated as missing, so
`album_folder` stayed None and the fix workflow bailed.
The same incomplete logic was duplicated four more times in the
repair_jobs/ modules, all with the same bug. Album Completeness was
just the most user-visible — the same setups were also producing false
"missing file" findings from Dead File Cleaner, silent skips in
MBID Mismatch Detector, etc.
The web server already had the correct logic at
`web_server.py:_resolve_library_file_path` (probes transfer + download
+ Plex-reported library locations + user-configured library.music_paths).
The repair workers had never been updated to match.
Fix:
- New `core/library/path_resolver.py` extracts the union logic into a
single shared function `resolve_library_file_path()`. Probes (in
order, deduped): explicit transfer/download kwargs, config-derived
soulseek.transfer_path/download_path, Plex-reported library
locations (when a plex_client is passed), user-configured
library.music_paths. Each defensive: malformed config or a flaky
Plex client degrades to the dirs that did succeed.
- `core/repair_worker.py:_resolve_file_path` becomes a delegating
wrapper preserving the legacy signature, with a new `config_manager`
kwarg. All 15 in-tree call sites updated to thread
`self._config_manager` through.
- `core/repair_jobs/dead_file_cleaner.py`,
`mbid_mismatch_detector.py`, and `lossy_converter.py` get the same
treatment: duplicate function replaced with a thin wrapper, call
sites pass `context.config_manager`.
- `core/repair_jobs/acoustid_scanner.py` and
`unknown_artist_fixer.py` (which used to import from repair_worker)
now call the shared resolver directly with `context.config_manager`.
Side benefit: every other repair job (Dead File Cleaner, MBID
Mismatch Detector, Lossy Converter, AcoustID Scanner, Unknown Artist
Fixer) also stops missing files in the media-server library mount.
Single fix unblocks five user-visible features.
Tests: `tests/library/test_path_resolver.py` — 20 cases covering all
four base-dir sources, suffix-walk algorithm, dedup, defensive paths
(None plex client, malformed config entries, raising config_manager.get,
broken plex attribute access), Docker path translation. Full suite
1677 passed locally.
WHATS_NEW entry under '2.4.2' dev cycle.
Root-cause fix for "scanning 50 artists" then silence: when the master
repair worker was paused, force-run still kicked off _run_job but the
job's first wait_if_paused() blocked forever because is_paused was tied
to the master-enabled state. Force-run now bypasses master-pause —
scheduled runs still respect it.
Also fixes Fix All on discography findings doing nothing: the backend
bulk_fix_findings query had a fixable_types allowlist that excluded
missing_discography_track (and acoustid_mismatch). Added both.
Backfill job rebuild:
- auto_add_to_wishlist opt-in setting — creates findings AND pushes to
wishlist during the scan
- 3-option fix dialog (Add to Wishlist / Just Clear / Cancel) on single
Fix, Bulk Fix selection, and Fix All (page-level)
- Fix All "Just Clear" path uses the clear endpoint with job_id filter
instead of the generic "may delete files" bulk-fix warning
- Batched in-memory matching using get_candidate_albums_for_artist +
get_candidate_tracks_for_albums (same fast path the Library pages use)
- Rich album context per finding (id, name, album_type, release_date,
images, artists, total_tracks) — flows through the wishlist pipeline
so auto-processor classifies each track into the right cycle
(albums vs singles) and post-processing gets correct folder/tags/art
- Per-artist progress logs [N/50] Scanning ArtistName
- Default interval 24h (was 168h); all release types default on; settings
reordered with _section_* group headers (Core / Release Types /
Content Filters)
Repair settings UI:
- Generic _section_<name> key convention renders as an uppercase group
divider in the settings panel — any job can opt in
- .repair-setting-row gets a dashed bottom border so label↔toggle pairing
is visually clear
- _prettifyRepairSettingKey fixes acronym capitalization (EPs, not Eps)
Version bumped to 2.36 with changelog entries.
PR #340 added ruff to the build-and-test.yml CI gate, which surfaced
286 pre-existing lint errors. Left unfixed, every feature branch push
fails CI. This commit resolves all of them so CI goes green and
contributors can actually land work.
Auto-fixes (248 of 286): removed unused f-string prefixes (F541),
renamed unused loop control variables with underscore prefix (B007),
removed duplicate imports (F811).
Manually fixed 10 latent bugs ruff caught (all wrapped in try/except
today, silently failing):
- music_database.py: _add_discovery_tables() called undefined
conn.commit() — would have crashed the iTunes-support migration
for existing databases. Now uses cursor.connection.commit().
- web_server.py settings GET: referenced undefined download_orchestrator
when it should be soulseek_client. Feature (_source_status on the
settings payload) was silently missing for UI auto-disable logic.
- web_server.py _process_wishlist_automatically: active_server
undefined in track-ownership check. Auto-wishlist was falling
through to the error handler and re-downloading owned tracks.
- web_server.py start_wishlist_missing_downloads: same active_server
bug in the manual wishlist path.
- web_server.py _process_failed_tracks_to_wishlist_exact: emitted
wishlist_item_added automation event with undefined artist_name
and track. Automation event silently never fired correctly.
- web_server.py discovery metadata enrichment: referenced cache
without calling get_metadata_cache() first. Track enrichment from
cached API responses was silently skipped.
- web_server.py Beatport discovery worker: wing-it fallback branch
used undefined successful_discoveries variable. Wing-it counter
never incremented correctly. Now uses state['spotify_matches']
consistently with the rest of the function.
- web_server.py _run_full_missing_tracks_process: stale import json
mid-function shadowed the module-level import, making an earlier
json.dumps() call reference an unbound local (F823).
- web_server.py discovery loop: platform loop variable shadowed
the module-level platform import (F402).
- core/watchlist_scanner.py: 7 lambda captures of loop variables
(B023 classic Python closure-in-loop bug) now bind at creation.
No existing tests had to change. Full suite stays at 263 passed.
New repair job that scans each artist in the library, fetches their
full discography from metadata sources, and creates findings for any
tracks not already owned. Users review findings and click "Add to
Wishlist" to queue missing tracks for download.
Respects content filters (live/remix/acoustic/instrumental/compilation)
and release type filters (album/EP/single). Opt-in, disabled by default,
runs weekly, processes up to 50 artists per run with rate limiting.
Jobs with interval_hours set to 0 caused ZeroDivisionError in
_pick_next_job staleness calculation. Now skips jobs with invalid
(zero or negative) intervals.
The retag fix for AcoustID mismatches was only updating the DB
record (title, artist_id) without writing corrected tags to the
actual audio file. Users would click Fix, the finding disappeared,
but the file on disk stayed unchanged. Now writes title and artist
tags to the file via Mutagen after the DB update.
Also fixed artist INSERT missing server_source when creating a new
artist during retag — now uses the active media server value.
The redownload branch had `import json, uuid` locally inside the function,
which caused Python to treat `uuid` as a local variable for the entire
function scope. When the retag branch ran instead, `uuid` was unbound.
Both modules are already imported at the top of the file.
Repair-worker album fills now generate explicit track IDs when copying rows, instead of relying on SQLite auto-assignment that no longer exists for TEXT primary keys. The unknown-artist fixer now does the same for new artists.
Also add a regression test for the album-fill copy branch and keep the AcoustID scanner resilient to legacy null-ID rows.
Rewrote the AcoustID scanner job to scan all library tracks (via DB file
paths resolved to disk) instead of only the Transfer folder. Checkpoints
by track ID for robust resume across restarts. Defaults changed to
enabled, 24h interval, batch size 200.
Added _fix_acoustid_mismatch handler with three actions:
- retag: update DB title/artist to match actual audio content
- redownload: add expected track to wishlist and delete wrong file
- delete: remove wrong file and DB record
This catches cases like a file tagged as "Dinosaur Bones" that is
actually "Helicopters" — the scanner fingerprints the audio, detects
the mismatch, and the user can fix it from Library Maintenance findings.
Centralize the ordered metadata source list and source-priority helper so album completeness and the repair worker follow the same Deezer/iTunes-first fallback order. This also removes the last duplicate priority logic from the touched repair paths.
Album completeness and any other repair job now uses the centralized source/client helpers instead of a worker-local Spotify client or override plumbing
- This keeps source selection aligned with the configured primary provider and removes the last Spotify-only special case from the job path.
This change ultimately is a step towards further centralizing the Spotify client access and the associated `is_spotify_authenticated` check.
- Currently these look-ups are done all over the place in different feature implementations directly, but moving forward, any feature that uses `get_primary_client` or `get_client_for_source` to access the Spotify client, won't have to duplicate any rate-limiting or auth checks as long as these getters are used
Album completeness and downstream repair flow now follow the configured
primary provider first, with Discogs and Hydrabase support added alongside
existing Spotify, iTunes, and Deezer paths.
Keep spotify_track_id for compatibility while preserving source-aware track
IDs for provider-neutral handling.
- Add interruptible stop events to background workers so shutdown
wakes out of long sleeps instead of waiting on fixed delays.
- Stop scan managers, repair worker, executors, and cleanup helpers
deterministically so process exit does not leave background threads
alive.
- Add startup warnings for stale SQLite WAL/SHM sidecars so unclean
shutdowns are easier to spot before init/migration errors cascade.
- Prevent forced kills from leaving SQLite sidecars behind, which
made rollbacks to older branches fail with malformed database
errors.
