This is the tool originally asked for — DISTINCT from the Library Scan (where
SoulSync reads the server into video.db). Server Scan tells Plex/Jellyfin to
rescan its OWN folders so newly-downloaded files get indexed, then a Library Scan
pulls them in. It's the manual twin of the post-download 'Scan Video Server'
automation, and targets Movies / TV / both like the Library Scan.
- POST /api/video/scan/server {media_type} -> refresh_video_server_sections (trigger)
- GET /api/video/scan/server/status?media_type -> {scanning:true|false|null} (live poll)
- new Server Scan card on the video Tools page + video-server-scan.js controller,
mirroring the music live-status UX (phase + working bar); resumes if the page
opens mid-scan. Server scans have no % (Plex doesn't report one) so the bar is a
working indicator. Both backend functions already existed + are media-type aware.
Seam tests: trigger threads media_type (movie / default all), status reports the
scanning flag (True / null passthrough), and the blueprint exposes both routes.
The video Library Scan tool only scanned 'all' — but movies and TV are
independent libraries (unlike music's single library). The scanner backend
already supported media_type='movie'|'show'|'all'; this just wires it up:
- /api/video/scan/request now reads media_type and threads it to request_scan
- the Tools card gains a target selector (All / Movies Only / TV Shows Only)
alongside the existing mode dropdown, matching the music scan's UX
- the live status detail reflects the target (no confusing '0 shows' on a
movies-only scan)
Seam test: the endpoint passes both mode and media_type through (default all/full,
explicit movie/deep, TV-only). Existing scanner media-type/scope tests unchanged.
GET /api/video/downloads/history (paged, ?kind/search/outcome) + /history/<id>, both
returning the live tab counts. New self-contained modal (video-download-history.js,
.vdh-* styles) opened from a History button on the Downloads page: day-grouped
timeline of every grab with poster, title, S/E, quality/resolution/codec/size and an
outcome badge; rows expand in place to reveal the full detail (release, source/uploader,
codecs, dest path, grabbed/finished times, error). Tabs (All/Movies/TV), search,
load-more, and a live count badge on the button.
After a grab (manual or Auto) the user now SEES what happened and can follow it:
- The chosen result card is spotlighted (Auto scrolls it into view) and grows a live
tracker: a progress bar that follows the real download + a 'Track on Downloads ↗'
button that closes the modal and jumps to the Downloads page. Polls the new
GET /api/video/downloads/status?id= until the download reaches a terminal state.
- A movie's detail page shows a live download chip (progress bar + %) for any in-flight
download of that title; clicking it jumps to Downloads. Looks up by media identity
via /downloads/status?media_id=&media_source=, polls while active, clears on
navigate-away. (video-detail.js)
- Result CARDS redesigned (the part you didn't like): a column card with a colour
resolution badge, a green 'accepted' edge, cleaner hierarchy, and the grab button is
now an accent 'Get' pill matching the source Auto button language.
Plumbing: new lightweight /downloads/status endpoint (by id, or by media for detail
pages); soulsync:video-navigate event in video-side.js to reach a top-level page from
anywhere; VideoGet.close exported so the tracker can dismiss the modal. All video-only.
Tests: status endpoint (by id + by media + null cases) in test_video_api.py;
tracking/detail/nav wiring in test_video_download_tracking.py. node --check clean;
isolation guards green.
Phase 2 — the engine:
- core/video/download_monitor.py: a daemon thread polls slskd for active video
downloads, updates progress, and on completion MOVES the file from the shared
download folder into the per-type library folder + marks it completed. The
per-download decision (process_download) is pure (fs + slskd injected) — 6 tests.
- POST /downloads/grab: validates (Soulseek-only v1), resolves the target library by
kind, starts the slskd download, records the row, lazily starts the monitor.
- GET /downloads/active (list + ensure monitor running) · POST /downloads/clear
(drop finished).
14 tests, isolation guard + ruff clean. Grab button + Downloads page next.
- Input/download folder is now the SAME shared config key the music side uses
(soulseek.download_path via config_manager) — change it on either side and both
follow, one physical download dir, simpler Docker mounts. Output libraries stay
video-specific in video.db. ZERO music code touched (read/write the shared key only).
- docker-compose: documented the shared ./downloads input mount, and added the three
video library OUTPUT mounts (./Movies→/media/movies, ./TV→/media/tv,
./YouTube→/media/youtube) matching the in-app placeholders.
- Test monkeypatches config_manager: asserts the input folder writes the shared
soulseek.download_path (music sees it) and is NOT in video.db; libraries persist to
video.db; legacy migration intact. ruff + guard + balance clean.
One shared download (input) folder feeds three separate library (output) folders —
the engine routes a finished download to the one matching its type, so YouTube never
lands in your real TV library (own Plex/Jellyfin library + agent). Replaces the single
transfer_path with movies_path / tv_path / youtube_path (legacy transfer_path migrates
into Movies on first read). Settings UI: shared Download folder + 🎬 Movies / 📺 TV /
▶️ YouTube library inputs. Tests updated incl. the migration. ruff + balance clean.
The shared judge both the Download modal and the later-phase engine will use:
core/video/quality_eval.py (pure, isolated) — resolution_rank/resolution_label,
meets_cutoff (loose resolution target), and evaluate_owned(file, profile) →
{meets, resolution_label, reasons[]}. A copy is 'below target' when its resolution
is under the loose cutoff, or its codec is on the reject list.
Exposed as POST /api/video/downloads/evaluate (loads the stored profile, judges the
posted file). 9 tests green, isolation guard green, ruff clean.
Boulder: 'youtube should have its own quality profile — there are not many options.'
Right — YouTube is grabbed with yt-dlp, not scene/p2p releases, so the Radarr-style
ladder/cutoff/rejects/HDR-audio tiers are meaningless. Added a small, separate profile:
- core/video/youtube_quality.py (pure, isolated): max_resolution ceiling
(best…360p), video_codec (any/av1/vp9/h264, soft), container (mp4/mkv/webm),
prefer_60fps, allow_hdr. normalize/load/save → video.db youtube_quality_profile.
- api/video/downloads.py: GET/POST /downloads/youtube-quality.
- UI: a 'YouTube Quality' card on the Downloads tab (data-video-only) — resolution
dropdown + codec/container segmented + 60fps/HDR checks, reusing the vq-* styles.
Wired into onPageShown + the save-all chain.
The (later-phase) yt-dlp downloader maps these to a format/format_sort selection.
9 new tests green, isolation guard green, ruff clean, JS/HTML balance clean.
Addressing UX feedback (Boulder): the cutoff and size guard were confusing for a
library that holds BOTH movies and TV.
- 'Upgrade until' is now a LOOSE resolution target (4K / 1080p / 720p / SD /
'best — never stop'), not a specific source×resolution tier. 4K is always in
the list regardless of which tiers are toggled on (the old dropdown only
listed enabled tiers, so 4K vanished when off). Stored as cutoff_resolution.
- Size guard split into Max movie size + Max episode size (runtime-aware, like
Radarr's MB/min but human-readable) — a flat GB cap was meaningless across a
2-hour movie and a 25-min episode. Dropped the confusing min slider.
Pure-logic + API + UI in lockstep; removed the now-dead per-row cutoff marker.
12 tests green, ruff clean, JS/HTML balance clean.
Replaces the simplified resolutions+4-sources+codec model with a real quality
ladder to actually stand in for Radarr/Sonarr:
- tiers: source×resolution ladder (Remux-2160p … SDTV) as one ranked, toggleable
list, best→worst, with a cutoff (stop upgrading once the library holds a tier
at/above it — no endless re-grabbing).
- rejects: hard blocks (cam/screener/workprint/3d, optional x264).
- soft preferences (score/tie-break, never reject alone): prefer_codec (any/hevc/av1),
prefer_hdr (off/prefer/require), prefer_audio (any/surround/lossless/atmos),
prefer_repack.
- size guard: min/max GB per item (0 = no limit), min pinned to a real cap.
Pure normalize/load/save (no DB/network), isolated from music. API endpoint is an
unchanged passthrough. 12 tests green, ruff clean. UI next.
The slskd CONNECTION settings (URL, API key, search timeout + buffer, min delay, min
peer speed, max peer queue, download timeout, auto-clear) are genuinely shared — one
slskd instance serves both sides — so the video Downloads tab surfaces them and they
read/write the app-wide config_manager soulseek.* keys, NOT video.db. Changing them
on the video side changes them for Music too (labeled 'shared with Music').
Deliberately EXCLUDES the music download/transfer paths and source mode/quality — those
stay video-specific (video.db, phases 1-3). The block shows only when soulseek is the
active/primary source (or in the hybrid chain). The 'Indexers & Downloaders' tab is
already fully shared (no video override — only data-stg='downloads' is hidden).
- /api/video/downloads/slskd GET/POST over config_manager (config.settings — shared app
config, not music code; the isolation test still passes).
- video-settings.js loadSlskd/saveSlskd (minutes↔seconds for the timeout), gated by
soulseekActive(), wired into onPageShown + the save chain.
68 video API tests green (incl. the no-music-imports guard + a shared-slskd test that
asserts it writes soulseek.* but never the video paths). Completes the Downloads-tab
settings batch (folders, quality profile, source/hybrid, shared slskd).
Video-specific Download Source section: a mode dropdown limited to Soulseek / Torrent /
Usenet / Hybrid (no streaming sources — those are music-only). In hybrid mode, a chain
builder lists the three sources with arrow-reorder + enable toggles (best-first), and
NO album-level/track-level badges (a music-only concept, per spec).
- core/video/download_config.py: pure normalize for download_mode + hybrid_order
(validates to the 3 sources, dedupes, never empties); stored in video_settings.
- /api/video/downloads/config GET/POST now carries download_mode + hybrid_order
alongside the folders.
- video-settings.js: dropdown + hybrid rows render/reorder/toggle, show the hybrid
container only in hybrid mode, save on change. Reuses the .vq-row styling.
7 tests (6 pure + 1 API). Next: the shared slskd connection block (reads/writes the
music config_manager so both sides share one slskd) + confirming the shared Indexers tab.
Foundation for the isolated video download settings. The Downloads tab is almost
entirely music-specific, so on the video side the music download sections are hidden
(video-side.css) and a data-video-only 'Video Download Folders' section takes their
place — an input (download) and output (transfer/library) folder, stored SEPARATELY
from the music soulseek.* paths in video.db's video_settings KV table.
- api/video/downloads.py: GET/POST /api/video/downloads/config (download_path,
transfer_path), registered in the video blueprint. Imports nothing from music.
- video-settings.js: loadDownloads/saveDownloads wired into onPageShown + the
video save-button chain.
- The shared 'Indexers & Downloaders' tab is left untouched (identical for both).
2 tests (round-trip + the isolation guard). Quality profile, video hybrid, and the
shared slskd block are the next phases.
Fifth/final service. Keyless, movies + shows, on by default → toggle in the
'Community Data (No Key)' frame.
- WikidataWorker: two-step lookup — find the entity by IMDb id (haswbstatement P345)
then read its official website (P856); stores wikidata_url. Registered in
build_backfill_workers.
- DB: wikidata_url/status/attempted on movies + shows + _BACKFILL/_BACKFILL_COLS;
both detail payloads return wikidata_url.
- config GET/POST wikidata_enabled; manager orb (green 🔗) + status poll; detail page
'Official Site' link badge alongside IMDb/TMDB/TVDB.
- 3 new tests (incl. the two-step fetch) + fixed-set/config assertions.
34 backfill tests green, ruff clean. All five new services (Trakt, TVmaze, AniList,
DeArrow, Wikidata) now have the full worker/DB/connections/orb/manager/detail parity.
Fourth service. Rides the YouTube-video enrich path (like RYD/SponsorBlock), keyless,
on by default → toggle in the YouTube-Extras frame.
- DeArrowWorker: fetches the branding API and stores the first non-original crowd
title for a cached YouTube video. apply_youtube_dearrow + youtube_video_dearrow_title
DB methods; dearrow_status added to the youtube_enrich next/breakdown whitelists.
- Schema: dearrow_title/status/attempted on youtube_video_stats (video_schema.sql +
_COLUMN_MIGRATIONS for existing DBs).
- config GET/POST dearrow_enabled; manager orb (blue 🏹, video-kind) + status poll;
YT video-detail panel shows a 'DeArrow' alt-title (payload via youtube.py + CSS).
- 4 new tests + fixed-set/config assertions.
30 backfill tests green. (My change is ruff-clean; the 12 pre-existing S110s in
api/video/youtube.py are unrelated tech debt on this branch, left untouched.)
Third service. Keyless GraphQL (new _http_post_json helper) → enable toggle in the
'Community Data (No Key)' frame, OFF by default (anime-niche + title-search match).
- AniListWorker: TV-only, searches AniList by title and stores the anime averageScore
(0-100), with a conservative normalized-title guard so a fuzzy anime search can't
attach a score to a non-anime show. anilist_enabled toggle (default off).
- DB: anilist_score/status/attempted on shows + _BACKFILL/_BACKFILL_COLS (keyed on
title); show_detail returns anilist_score.
- config GET/POST anilist_enabled (default 0); manager orb (blue 🎌) + status poll;
detail page 'AniList 85%' chip (+ CSS).
- 4 new tests (incl. the title-mismatch rejection) + fixed-set/config assertions.
27 backfill tests green, ruff clean. (Note: the youtube_status_route test still
flaps on the sandbox WSL WAL disk-I/O — environmental, unrelated.)
Second service. Keyless (no API key) → an enable toggle in a new 'Community Data
(No Key)' connections frame, mirroring the YouTube-Extras pattern.
- TVmazeWorker: TV-only (no movie DB), looks a show up by imdb/thetvdb id and
gap-fills the TVmaze community rating. On by default; tvmaze_enabled toggle.
- DB: tvmaze_rating/status/attempted on shows + _BACKFILL/_BACKFILL_COLS (show only);
show_detail returns tvmaze_rating.
- config GET/POST tvmaze_enabled; manager orb (teal 📺, show-kind) + status poll;
detail page TVmaze rating chip (+ CSS).
- 4 new tests + the 3 fixed-set/config-exact assertions updated.
Note: one UNRELATED test (youtube_status_route) flaps on a WSL WAL 'disk I/O error'
in this sandbox (pass/fail/fail across reruns of identical code) — environmental, not
this change; the TVmaze + config tests pass consistently.
First of the new enrichment services, wired to the SAME standard as the rest:
- TraktWorker backfill (core/video/enrichment/backfill.py): looks a title up by its
IMDb id (?extended=full) and gap-fills the community rating + vote count. Registered
in build_backfill_workers.
- DB: trakt_rating/trakt_votes/trakt_status/trakt_attempted columns + _BACKFILL /
_BACKFILL_COLS registration; detail payloads return trakt_rating/votes.
- Connections tab: Trakt service frame (Client ID field + Test button), wired into
video-settings.js load/save/bindings and the /enrichment/config GET+POST.
- Worker-manager modal + orb: WORKERS registry entry (red ★) + status-poll SERVICES
list, so it gets the same orb animation + per-service matched/pending/error card.
- Detail page: a 'Trakt 8.2' rating chip alongside IMDb/RT/Metacritic (+ CSS).
5 new tests + 2 fixed-set assertions updated; 249 video tests green, ruff clean.
- YouTube video cards show 👍/👎 like/dislike counts (from Return YouTube Dislike)
next to views, threaded through ytEpisodeOf.
- New GET /youtube/video/<id>/segments exposes stored SponsorBlock segments so the
player can offer skips. Update config-shape test for the new keys/toggles.
Adds a VideoBackfillWorker base that enriches already-identified items BY id
(vs the matcher workers), with the exact same lifecycle + get_stats() shape so
the engine registry, /api/video/enrichment routes, and Manage-Workers modal
drive them identically.
Workers:
- fanart.tv (free key): gap-fills logo/clearart/banner/backdrop/poster art
- OpenSubtitles (free key): records subtitle-language availability per title
- Return YouTube Dislike (no key): like/dislike estimates on cached videos
- SponsorBlock (no key): crowd segments per video
DB: youtube_video_stats + youtube_video_segments tables; fanart/subs columns;
backfill_next/mark/breakdown + youtube_enrich_* helpers; likes/dislikes merged
into get_channel_videos. Seam tests in tests/test_video_backfill.py.
A big playlist read '97' because yt-dlp flat caps playlist extraction at ~100 and
its playlist_count is often unset, so we showed the FETCHED count. Now the detail
endpoint overlays the InnerTube playlist browse (browseId VL<id>): curator-ordered
videos up to ~200 (vs yt-dlp's ~100) AND the real count from the header's
numVideosText (e.g. '512 videos'). The billboard shows the true total; when the
list is partial it says 'Showing the first N of TOTAL videos (YouTube limits
playlist browsing).' Live-validated (Veritasium uploads: total 512, 200 loaded).
103 tests green.
Honest cap: YouTube's browse only exposes ~200 of a playlist (page 2 returns no
continuation), so very large playlists show the right COUNT but list ~200.
The channel card's 'N videos' was actually the count of WISHED videos (0 until you
wish some) — so every channel read '0 videos'. It now shows the REMEMBERED catalog
size (from youtube_channel_videos, which fills in as a channel is enriched/opened),
falling back to 'Channel' when nothing's cached yet. Wished count is kept as a
separate wished_count field. Playlists likewise show their video count (cached when
the playlist is followed-with-videos or opened) instead of a static 'Playlist'.
list_watchlist_channels/playlists return the remembered count; the playlist detail +
follow endpoints cache the list so the count is known. 138 tests green.
A playlist is now a first-class watchlist type alongside channels:
- core: parse_playlist_id (URL/bare id; rejects mixes RD… + personal lists) +
resolve_playlist → {playlist_id, title, channel_title, video_count, thumbnail,
videos} in the CURATOR's order (partial set, not by year).
- db: add/remove/list/watch_state for kind='playlist' video_watchlist rows
(mirrors channels; same surrogate scheme, separate kind so they don't collide).
- api: /youtube/resolve now detects playlist links; /youtube/playlist/follow +
/unfollow; the existing /youtube/playlist/<id> is upgraded to also return the
playlist meta + following (serves the channel-page expansion AND the new detail
view from one route); /youtube/channels also returns followed playlists.
Validated live (Lex Fridman playlist resolves title+owner+videos). 190 tests green.
Frontend (search detect + result card + detail view + watchlist display) next.
Each /videos batch was 3 InnerTube pages + 0.4s sleeps (>1s → tripped the
slow-request WARNING) and carried the ~2KB continuation token in the URL, so
every batch dumped a giant warning line — a dozen per channel open. Now it's a
POST (token in the body, never the URL) fetching ONE page per call with no
server sleep, so each request is fast (<1s, no warning) and the frontend's 120ms
pacing keeps it polite. 17 youtube API tests green.
Channel pages re-fetched everything every open (re-stream + ~3s yt-dlp metadata).
Now we remember what we learn about a channel and serve it cache-first:
- schema: youtube_channel_videos (list) + youtube_channel_meta (avatar/subs/tags/
banner); dates stay in youtube_video_dates, merged on read. DB: cache_/get_
channel_videos + cache_/get_channel_meta (upserts COALESCE so refreshes never
drop fields).
- enricher: _enrich now REMEMBERS a channel — caches the full InnerTube catalog
(list, via new innertube_channel_catalog) + metadata + dates, not just dates.
Since it already sweeps followed channels, watchlisted channels get pre-warmed
in the background → opening them is instant.
- channel endpoint: cache-first. A remembered channel renders from cache with NO
network (returns from_cache:true); a miss resolves live (yt-dlp) and remembers
it. The /videos batch endpoint caches every page it streams.
- frontend: cache hit renders the full catalog instantly, then re-streams to
refresh QUIETLY (new uploads/date fixes); only the first (miss) load shows the
'loading full history' banner.
Live-validated (MrBeast catalog: 90/3 pages, all titled+dated). 190 tests green.
The channel page was capped at the recent 90 (yt-dlp flat, hard min(90,limit)),
so prolific channels (Ninja Kidz etc.) showed only ~90 of hundreds. Now it loads
everything via YouTube's InnerTube API, paginated by continuation token — each
page fetched once (O(n), light on rate limits), unlike yt-dlp offset batches
which re-scan from the start every time.
- core: innertube_parse_video_items (keeps title+thumbnail, not just dates) +
innertube_channel_videos_page(channel_id, continuation) → {videos, continuation}.
- api: GET /youtube/channel/<id>/videos?continuation=<tok> returns ~a batch of
videos (approx dates, refined from the date cache) + the next token.
- frontend: ytLoadAllVideos streams batches after the fast initial 90 render,
folding each into the year-seasons live — backfills dates on the videos already
shown AND appends older ones, re-rendering per batch (episode grid only when the
viewed season changed). Replaces the old date-only re-poll (this dates AND
expands). Safety ceiling 2000; a 'Loading full history… N so far' indicator.
Validated live (MrBeast: 30/page, clean continuation, all dated). 101 tests green.
- The standalone enricher now reports orb telemetry: stats()/pause()/resume();
/enrichment/youtube/status (+pause/resume) special-cased in the route. Added
the 4th header worker button (red ▶), WORKER_DEFS entry, and SERVICES wiring —
it's not on the socket so video-enrichment.js polls it every 3s. It animates
(idle → active orb + inbound pulses) while a followed channel's dates are being
fetched, like the TMDB/TVDB/OMDb orbs.
- Channel detail now uses the SAME standard watchlist button as shows/movies
(library-artist-watchlist-btn, ✓/＋ icon, 'In Watchlist'/'Watchlist') instead
of a bespoke 'Follow' — consistency. Still wired to the channel follow action.
176 backend tests green; JS balanced; music untouched.
Flat listing has no upload dates, so channels showed one 'All Videos' season.
Now real year-seasons, filled from cheap sources and cached so they grow:
- core: parse_rss_dates / channel_recent_dates — one public RSS GET dates the
~15 most-recent uploads (no yt-dlp, no bot risk).
- db: youtube_video_dates cache table + cache_video_dates / get_video_dates.
- /youtube/channel merges cached + RSS dates onto the flat videos (year-seasons)
and caches what it learns; /youtube/video caches each fetched date too — so
expanding/wishing videos progressively fills the catalog's years, instant on
repeat. Dateless tail groups as 'Earlier videos'. Missing-only toggle hidden
for channels. 84 db + 84 youtube/api tests green.
Full day-one coverage still needs the YouTube Data API's publishedAt (optional,
yt-dlp can't match it cheaply) — RSS + cache is the no-key best.
A text search now also surfaces matching YouTube channels (not just the paste-a-
link path). search_channels() extracts the channels-filtered YouTube results
page (flat); API GET /youtube/search hydrates a 'following' flag. The search
page fires it in parallel with the TMDB search and appends a 'YouTube channels'
group when it returns (best-effort; never blocks/breaks TMDB results). Cards open
the in-app channel page. 82 youtube+api tests green; balanced; music untouched.
The channel avatar (and video thumbnails) are yt3.googleusercontent.com /
i.ytimg.com URLs; hotlink/CORS policy could blank them (failed <img> hides on
the watchlist, falls to initials on the wishlist orb) — which is why the poster
'vanished' on both pages.
Extend the /api/video/img proxy allowlist to YouTube CDN hosts (ytimg.com /
ggpht.com / googleusercontent.com, https-only, still SSRF-safe) and route all
YouTube art through it: VideoYoutube.img() helper used by the watchlist channel
cards, search chip, the wishlist nebula orb/season/still art, and the channel
detail avatar/banner/thumbnails. 2 img-proxy tests green; JS balanced.
Flat channel listing can't return descriptions, so selecting a video showed 'No
description'. Now we do a non-flat single-video extract on demand — the way the
TV nebula lazy-loads guest stars:
- core: video_detail(id) / shape_video() — description, views, likes, duration,
tags, channel, webpage_url (full extract, yt-dlp injectable for tests).
- API: GET /youtube/video/<id> — returns it AND backfills the description onto
the wishlist row (set_wishlist_video_overview), so re-opening is instant.
- Wishlist info bar (youtube): on select, lazy-fetch → real description +
eyebrow (date · duration · views) + a 'Watch on YouTube' link; cached on the
episode object. 'Loading details…' while in flight.
Mirrors the episode lazy-load + art-backfill patterns. 73 youtube+api tests
green; brace/CSS balanced; music untouched.
- Resolver: capture banner_url + separate avatar (by thumbnail id), keeping
per-video duration/views for the detail hero.
- query_youtube_wishlist reshaped to the EXACT TV-nebula shape: channel = show,
upload YEAR = season (newest first), video = episode (newest=ep1 within a
year), carrying source='youtube' + youtube_id + per-video source_id. Surrogate
int returned as tmdb_id so the nebula's int keying just works.
- New API: GET /youtube/channel/<id> (full channel detail — meta + deeper
uploads + following + per-video wished flags) and POST /youtube/wishlist/add
(per-video wish). DB: youtube_video_wish_state, remove_one_video_from_wishlist.
- Tests updated for the nebula shape + banner + detail endpoints. 82 DB + 69
api/youtube tests green.
api/video/youtube.py wired into the blueprint:
- GET /youtube/resolve — preview a pasted channel (meta + recent uploads) +
a 'following' hydration flag; no writes.
- POST /youtube/follow — {url} or pre-resolved {channel} → follow + wish its
recent uploads (capped 30). Returns channel + counts.
- POST /youtube/unfollow — {youtube_id} → un-follow (keeps wished videos).
- GET /youtube/channels — followed channels for the watchlist page.
- GET /youtube/wishlist — wished videos grouped by channel.
- POST /youtube/wishlist/remove — scope channel|video.
yt-dlp call lives behind resolve (injectable/mockable). 38 API tests green.
Season tiles showed the show poster because the wishlist had no season art. Now
stored + used: new video_wishlist.season_poster_url (SCHEMA_VERSION 11 + migration);
the get-modal captures each season's poster at add-time (owned -> /poster/season
proxy, tmdb -> direct); query_wishlist exposes season.poster_url; tiles render the
real season poster (falling back to show poster, then placeholder).
Backfill generalized: /wishlist/backfill-stills -> /wishlist/backfill-art fills
BOTH stills and season posters from the same cached tmdb_season call (it already
returns the season poster). The page fires it once when either is missing.
Tests updated/added: art backfill targets + season-poster set + endpoint. 104 passed.
The 'no episode images' was data, not a bug: existing episode rows predate
still-capture (81 rows, 0 stills). New /wishlist/backfill-stills fills them
cheaply — one cached tmdb_season call per (show, season), updating only rows
that lack a still. The show tab fires it once automatically when it sees missing
stills, then reloads so the images pop in.
DB: wishlist_still_backfill_targets + set_wishlist_still (won't clobber existing).
Tests: +2. Suites green.
A manual safety-net for the auto-promoter: queues episodes that have ALREADY
aired, are missing, and aren't yet on the wishlist. Upcoming episodes are left
alone (the calendar promotes them once they air), so it's a no-op on the current/
future weeks and useful when you page back to a past one.
- calendar_upcoming now returns the show's tmdb_id.
- /wishlist/check accepts {shows:[...]} -> by_show membership (db.wishlist_keys_
for_shows), so the button only counts/adds what's genuinely not yet queued.
- Calendar: computes aired-missing (air_date < today, !has_file), checks wishlist
membership, shows 'Add N missing to wishlist' when there's net-new; click groups
by show -> /wishlist/add, toasts, fires soulsync:video-wishlist-changed, recomputes.
Tests: +2 (wishlist_keys_for_shows, /wishlist/check by_show). Backend: 100 passed.
- api/video/wishlist.py: GET /wishlist (paged movie|show tab, or counts-only),
/wishlist/counts, POST /wishlist/add (movie OR show+episodes), /wishlist/remove
(scope movie|show|season|episode), /wishlist/check (hydration). Registered in
the blueprint.
- Dashboard 'wishlist' stat now reflects the real curated count (was a 0 stub).
Tests: +6 API (add movie/episodes, body validation, scoped removes, hydration,
routes registered). API suite 30 + DB suite 68 passing.
Browse panel (was boring native dropdowns):
- Kind + Sort are now segmented pill controls; Genre + Era are horizontally
scrollable, edge-faded chip rows with an accent-glow active state; primary
'Browse all →' CTA. Genre chips rebuild when kind flips. Selection lives in
state.sel (no <select> reads).
More data per rail (so 'Hide owned' doesn't gut a shelf):
- /discover/list gains a 'pages' param (1–3): fetches that many consecutive
TMDB pages and concatenates them deduped in one response. Rails request
pages=2 (~40 items); trending is a fixed list so extra pages are skipped.
Cleanup: removed dead .vdsc-filterbar/.vdsc-select CSS.
Tests: +3 (discover routes registered; multi-page concat+dedup; trending
fetched once despite pages). API suite: 22 passed.
The page rendered every follow + airing-default show at once (DOM + all posters)
— slow once the watchlist grows. Now it pages like the library:
- /api/video/watchlist?kind=&search=&page=&limit= returns {items, pagination,
counts}; query_watchlist() filters by title + slices (effective list is
bounded, so compute-then-slice, not heavier UNION SQL).
- Page reworked to a single grid: Shows/People tabs each load their own page;
debounced search box; Prev/Next pager; tab badges show totals from counts.
- Only a page of cards (and lazy posters) render at a time.
4 tests added (DB paginate/search + endpoint). 82 video tests green.
A curated follow-list for the video side, mirroring the music watchlist. v1 is
membership only — the monitoring/discovery engine is a later phase.
Backend:
- video_watchlist table (kind 'show'|'person', keyed on tmdb_id — the stable
cross-context id both carry; library_id kept when owned). NOT the existing
shows.monitored flag (that defaults to 1 / is library-only / has no people).
- VideoDatabase: add/remove/list/state/counts (upsert COALESCEs library_id +
poster so a TMDB re-add can't wipe known data).
- /api/video/watchlist {GET, /add, /remove, /check, /counts}.
- query_library now selects s.tmdb_id so show cards can carry the key.
Frontend:
- video-watchlist-btn.js: shared eye button (the music ya-watchlist-btn mirror)
— build/toggle/hydrate, one delegated capture-phase click handler, broadcasts
soulsync:video-watchlist-changed so pages can react.
- Watchlist page (new subpage + video-watchlist.js): Shows / People tab switcher,
poster grid to detail-page quality, reloads each visit, drops cards on unfollow.
- Wired the eye onto library TV-show cards (movies excluded — wishlist, not
watch) + hydrate on render.
Tests: 6 new (DB upsert/COALESCE/state/counts + endpoint roundtrip/validation).
76 video tests green. Other card surfaces (cast, search, similar, filmography)
are the same VideoWatchlist.btn(...) one-liner — wired next.
Settings → Video Source shows which server video uses (✓ Plex/Jellyfin), a
Plex/Jellyfin picker when both are connected, or a clear 'connect Plex or
Jellyfin' message when neither (Navidrome/Standalone are music-only and not
offered). The Library shows a non-breaking 'no video server' banner + disables
Scan until one is connected. Detail Pages prefs moved into their own 'Video
Preferences' group. /api/video/server GET+POST drives it.
A saved 'Where-to-watch region' picker in Settings → Detail Pages (19 common
regions, default US). The engine reads it for the providers in extras +
tmdb_detail (region in the cache key), and the detail page labels the section
'Where to Watch · <region>' so you know which market you're seeing.
Click any episode (owned or missing) to expand it: a larger still, full overview,
and the episode's guest stars (clickable to the person page). Lazy-loaded per
episode from TMDB by the show's tmdb_id and cached. New client.episode_detail +
engine.episode_extra + /api/video/episode/<show_tmdb>/<season>/<episode>.
After a couple seconds on a detail page, a muted trailer plays behind the hero
(Netflix/Disney+ style) with mute/unmute + stop controls; the backdrop fades back
when stopped. Stops on navigate-away/modal-open (no orphaned audio).
Gated by a 'Autoplay trailers in the billboard' toggle in video Settings →
Detail Pages (default on). Backed by billboard_autoplay in video_settings, read
via a lightweight /api/video/prefs. Tests updated for the new config field.
Owned detail pages sample the poster for the per-title glow, but preview/person
pages fell back to the theme accent because their TMDB images are cross-origin
(canvas taint). Added /api/video/img — a same-origin proxy restricted to
image.tmdb.org (SSRF-safe) — so:
- preview (tmdb) detail samples its poster via the proxy → real accent;
- the person page samples the portrait → per-person accent on the ring/glow/role.
Tests: route registered + proxy rejects non-tmdb URLs.
