Root cause of Sokhi's endless 0-findings: the SCAN resolved each track's path
through the path-mapping layer with NO fallback, while the APPLY
(_fix_missing_cover_art) uses `_resolve_file_path(...) or p` — i.e. it falls
back to the raw DB path when mapping returns nothing. On his Docker setup the
mapping returns None, so the scan set has_local=False and skipped every album
(never looking at the folder), even though the apply WOULD have written the
cover.jpg from the raw path.
Fix: make the scan match the apply — if mapping returns nothing but the raw DB
path is a real file (container path == stored path), use it as-is. Now the scan
actually inspects the folder, sees the missing cover.jpg, and flags it; the
apply then writes it from the embedded art.
Tests: unresolved-path-but-real-file → flagged (sidecar_from_embedded); the
fallback does NOT fire for a non-existent path (media-server-only stays skipped).
Kept the [cover-diag] logging from the prior commit to confirm on Sokhi's run.
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.
Boulder (Plex): "flags every album, but everything has art." His albums show
art in the library (served from the embedded file art), but the DB thumb_url
cache column is empty — and the scan flagged on db_missing (empty thumb_url),
so every local album tripped it despite having perfectly good art in the files.
Now: a LOCAL album is flagged only when its files actually lack art
(disk_missing). An empty thumb_url is just a stale cache when the files have
art — not "missing cover art". db_missing still flags media-server-only albums
(no local files), where the DB thumb is the only art there is.
Tests: local+file-art+empty-thumb → NOT flagged (the bug); local+no-file-art →
still flagged; media-server-only+empty-thumb → still flagged.
The scan checked album_has_art_on_disk() on the RAW DB track path, while the
apply (_fix_missing_cover_art) resolves the path first. On any path-mapped
setup (docker mounts, a Plex/SoulSync path mismatch) the raw path isn't found,
disk art reads as "missing", and EVERY album gets flagged — then the apply
resolves the path, finds the art already there, and reports "already present".
Scan and apply disagreed purely because only the apply resolved paths.
Now the scan resolves the representative path the same way (resolve_library_
file_path, same transfer/download/config inputs the retag job uses) before
checking disk art. Unresolvable → treated as no-local-file (not claimed
disk-missing) so we never false-flag a file we simply can't reach.
Tests: disk check runs on the resolved path (thumb+art → not flagged);
unresolvable path → not flagged + art never checked on None.
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.
Consistency follow-up: the Filler picked art via metadata source-priority +
its own prefer_source knob, ignoring metadata_enhancement.album_art_order —
the explicit cover-art source list that post-process embed and the Library
Re-tag job now use. So 'cover art sources' meant two different things.
Prefer select_preferred_art_url (the configured order) first; fall back to the
existing prefer_source / source-priority loop when no order is configured
(the default) — non-breaking, existing behavior unchanged for those users.
Help text updated. Test: configured order wins + skips the source loop.
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 title/artist fallback search took results[0]'s artwork unconditionally, so
a loose full-text match returned the wrong album's cover (the 'new sources give
incorrect art' reports). Now it pulls a few results and only accepts one whose
title matches (subset, to allow Deluxe/Remaster) AND whose artist matches
exactly — the artist being the strong guard against wrong covers. Falls back to
an exact title match when a result carries no artist.
The album's own stored source-id path is unchanged (that id is authoritative).
Tests: wrong-artist rejected, skips wrong result for a matching one, + unit
coverage of the matcher (deluxe/feat/stopwords accepted, wrong artist/title
rejected).
`_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.
8 test files had _DummyConfigManager missing get_active_media_server(),
causing failures when pytest ran them before the test file that had it.
Whichever file set sys.modules first won, and the incomplete dummy broke
later tests. Also fix script.js read_text() missing encoding='utf-8'
which failed on non-UTF-8 default locales.
Cover art lookup now honors an explicit prefer_source first,
falls back to the runtime primary metadata source when unset,
and uses the shared source priority for the remaining fallbacks.
