The Fix Track Match modal's auto-search was hardcoded to query only
Spotify -> Deezer -> iTunes, ignoring MusicBrainz entirely — even for
users with MB set as their primary metadata source. MB-niche recordings
(canonical entries with diacritics, fringe / non-mainstream tracks that
the commercial catalogues don't carry) had no chance.
Wiring:
- New `MusicBrainzSearchClient.search_tracks_with_artist(track, artist,
limit)` for surfaces that already have title + artist split. Uses MB's
bare-query mode (strict=False) — diacritic-folded, alias/sortname
indexed — same recall rationale as the earlier MBID-paste endpoint.
- New route `GET /api/musicbrainz/search_tracks` mirrors the existing
/api/{spotify,itunes,deezer}/search_tracks endpoints exactly: accepts
`track`+`artist` (or legacy `query`) + `limit`, returns
`{tracks: [{id, name, artists, album, duration_ms, image_url, source}]}`.
Applies the same `core.metadata.relevance.rerank_tracks` pass Deezer /
iTunes use, which is critical because MB's free-text scoring weighs
title-text matches heavily and would otherwise rank cover / tribute
recordings above the canonical version.
- `_search_tracks_text` gains a `min_score` parameter. The cascade path
passes 20 (vs the enhanced-search-tab default of 80) so MB recordings
whose title doesn't literally contain the artist name still enter the
candidate pool — without that, "Army of Me" + "Bjork" only surfaces
the HIRS Collective cover (score 100) and drops Björk's canonical
recording (score 28). The rerank pass then surfaces Björk by artist
match. Verified against real MB API: pre-fix returned only the cover;
post-fix top 5 are all Björk.
- Fix popup `allSources` array (wishlist-tools.js) gets MB appended.
The existing `activeIdx` reorder logic moves MB to the front when
it's the active primary; otherwise MB sits last (1 req/sec rate
limit makes it the slowest source).
7 new unit tests on the adapter: bare-query mode is used, missing
artist falls back to None (drops AND-clause), empty inputs short-circuit,
low-score candidates are kept for rerank to handle, default strict +
default min_score behaviour preserved for the existing search-tab path,
client errors are swallowed so the cascade falls through to the next
source.
Discogs intentionally absent — Discogs has no track-level search API
(see core/discogs_client.py:575 — returns []). Adding a Flask endpoint
that always returns empty would be a permanent no-op.
Power-user escape hatch on the Discovery Fix Track Match modal — when
fuzzy auto-search ranks the wrong recording among many same-title
versions (10 remasters, live cuts, alt sessions), paste the MusicBrainz
recording URL or bare UUID into the new field and resolve straight to
that record.
Layout:
- Shape adapter `get_recording_flat(mbid)` lives in
`core/musicbrainz_search.py` next to existing `get_track_details`.
Returns the flat Fix-popup track shape (artists as `string[]`,
album as string, single `image_url`) — distinct from the
Spotify-shaped nested dict `get_track_details` returns.
- New route `GET /api/musicbrainz/recording/<mbid>` is a thin wrapper:
validates MBID format with an anchored UUID regex, calls the adapter,
returns 400 / 404 / 200 with no inline shape massaging.
- Frontend `parseMusicBrainzMbid()` lives in `shared-helpers.js` —
pure URL/UUID parser, reusable from other surfaces (failed-MB cache,
manual match) without duplication.
- Fix modal HTML gets one new input row + button; existing search row
and result render pipeline are untouched. New `lookupDiscoveryFixByMbid()`
fetches the endpoint and feeds the single result through the existing
`renderDiscoveryFixResults` -> confirm-dialog -> match pipeline, so MB-
paste matches go through the exact same selection flow as auto-search
results.
- Enter-key bound on the MBID input via a separate handler ref so its
lifecycle matches the search-input handlers without conflating the
two submit targets.
7 unit tests cover the adapter: happy path, empty/None MBID, MB returns
None, recording-without-release (empty album), multi-artist credits,
includes-list contract, and client-error swallow.
Out of scope: the Fix popup's fuzzy cascade is still hardcoded to
spotify/deezer/itunes regardless of which primary source the user has
configured. Adding MB to that cascade (when MB is the active primary)
is a separate concern.
Issue #607 (AfonsoG6) -- two AcoustID problems:
1. Live recordings false-quarantining as "Version mismatch: expected
'... (Live at Venue)' (live) but file is '...' (original)" because
MusicBrainz often stores the recording entity with a bare title --
the venue / live annotation lives on the release entity, not the
recording. The audio fingerprint correctly identifies the live
recording, but the title-text comparison flagged it as wrong.
New pure helper `core/matching/version_mismatch.py:is_acceptable_version_mismatch`
accepts the mismatch only when:
- One-sided AND involves 'live': exactly one side is 'live' and
the other is bare 'original'. Two-sided mismatches stay strict.
- Fingerprint score >= 0.85 (stricter than the existing 0.80
minimum -- escape valve only fires when AcoustID is more
confident than its own threshold).
- Bare title similarity >= 0.70.
- Artist similarity >= 0.60.
Other version markers (instrumental, remix, acoustic, demo, etc)
stay strict -- those have distinct fingerprints AND MB always
annotates them in the recording title. The existing
test_acoustid_version_mismatch.py suite passes unchanged.
2. Audio-mismatch failure message reported "identified as '' by ''
(artist=100%)" when AcoustID returned multiple recordings -- prior
code mixed `recordings[0]`'s strings (which can be empty) with
`best_rec`'s scores. Now uses `matched_title` / `matched_artist`
consistently in both the high-confidence-skip path and the final
fail message.
Issue #608 (AfonsoG6) -- quarantine modal:
3. Approve / Delete buttons silently no-op'd when the filename
contained an apostrophe -- the unescaped quote broke the inline JS
in the onclick handler. Now wraps the id via
`escapeHtml(JSON.stringify(id))`, which round-trips quotes /
backslashes / unicode / newlines safely through the HTML attribute
to JS string boundary.
4. Bonus UX: quarantine entry expanded view now shows source uploader
(username) and original soulseek filename when the sidecar carries
that context -- helps trace which uploader the bad file came from.
Backend exposes `source_username` + `source_filename` fields from
`sidecar.context.original_search_result`. Degrades to '' on legacy
thin sidecars.
Tests:
- 23 new boundary tests in tests/matching/test_version_mismatch.py
pin every shape: equal versions trivial, one-sided live both
directions, threshold floors (each just below default -> reject),
two-sided strict, non-live one-sided strict (covers exact
test_instrumental_returned_for_vocal_request_fails scenario),
custom-threshold overrides.
- 4 existing test_acoustid_version_mismatch.py tests pass unchanged.
- 507 AcoustID / matching / imports tests pass.
Standalone Quarantine button + modal felt out of place — duplicated
the chrome of the existing Library History modal but with worse
styling and behavior. Folded the quarantine list into the existing
modal as a third tab next to Downloads + Server Imports.
UI changes:
- Removed the standalone Quarantine button on the Downloads page
header and the standalone modal HTML
- Added third tab to library-history-tabs with a count badge
- loadLibraryHistory dispatches to loadQuarantineList when the
quarantine tab is active
- Quarantine entries render as library-history-entry cards using
the exact same class chrome as Downloads + Imports (thumb
placeholder, title + meta, badge, relative time via
formatHistoryTime, expandable details panel)
- Per-row actions styled as lh-audit-btn to match the existing
Audit button look
- Approve / Recover / Delete now use the themed showConfirmDialog
+ showToast — no more native browser alert / confirm
Backend endpoints + pure helpers + tests unchanged from f4cff78f.
WHATS_NEW entry rewritten to reflect the actual final UX.
Closes#584. Quarantined files used to sit in ss_quarantine/ with a
thin sidecar — no UI, no recovery, no way to see what got dropped.
This adds the management surface the user needs without going to the
filesystem.
UI: new "Quarantine" button on the downloads page header opens a
modal with every quarantined file (filename, expected track/artist,
reason, when, size). Three actions per row:
- Approve (one-click): restores the file, re-runs the post-process
pipeline with ONLY the failing check skipped, lands in the library
with full tags + lyrics + scan
- Recover (legacy fallback): moves to Staging for thin-sidecar
entries that lack the embedded context Approve needs
- Delete: permanent removal of file + sidecar
Per-check bypass: context['_skip_quarantine_check'] = 'integrity' /
'acoustid' / 'bit_depth'. Skips ONLY the named check — other quality
gates stay live. No blanket bypass-all flag.
Sidecar expansion: move_to_quarantine now persists the full
json-serializable context via serialize_quarantine_context (drops
non-JSON-safe values, walks nested dicts/lists/sets, str-coerces
unknown objects) plus the trigger name. Existing thin sidecars are
detected and routed to Recover instead of Approve.
Pure helpers in core/imports/quarantine.py: list_quarantine_entries
/ delete_quarantine_entry / approve_quarantine_entry /
recover_to_staging / serialize_quarantine_context. 27 tests pin
every shape: orphan files / orphan sidecars / corrupt sidecars /
collision-safe filename restoration / full-context vs thin-sidecar
dispatch / json round-trip safety.
Four new endpoints in web_server.py — thin glue around the helpers:
GET /api/quarantine/list, DELETE /api/quarantine/<id>,
POST /api/quarantine/<id>/approve, POST /api/quarantine/<id>/recover.
Download modal status differentiates "🛡️ Quarantined" from
"❌ Failed" so recoverable files are visible at a glance — checked
against the error_message text, no schema change needed.
Pipeline changes are three minimal per-check conditionals at the
existing quarantine sites in core/imports/pipeline.py. Each
move_to_quarantine call now passes its trigger name so the sidecar
records which check fired.
Full suite: 2992 passed.
- new "Audit" button on each download row in the library history
modal opens a second modal visualizing the download lifecycle as
an interactive horizontal stepper (request → source → match →
verify → process → place) with click-to-expand detail cards
- hero header with album art + track title + meta line + status
pills (source / quality / acoustid result)
- three tabs: Lifecycle / Tags / Lyrics
- Tags tab reads the audio file live via mutagen at audit-open
time via new GET /api/library/history/<id>/file-tags endpoint;
file is the single source of truth so background enrichment
writes (audiodb / lastfm / genius / replaygain / lyrics fetch)
show up too. flat key/value rows stacked vertically (label-above-
value) so long MBIDs / URLs / joined genre lists wrap cleanly.
source IDs grouped per-service into 2-col sub-card grid.
- Lyrics tab renders the full transcript with dimmed timecodes.
- post-processing step infers observable changes from source-vs-
final state (format conversion, file rename via tag template,
folder template).
- "Download History" button also added to the Downloads page batch
panel header so it's reachable outside the dashboard.
- mobile responsive: tabs + stepper scroll horizontally, modal
goes full-screen, hero stacks below 480px.
19 helper tests pin the mutagen reader: id3 (TIT2/TPE1/TALB + TXXX
+ USLT + APIC), vorbis (FLAC dict + _id/_url passthrough), file
metadata (format / bitrate / duration), defensive paths (empty /
missing file / mutagen returns None / mutagen raises), stringify
edge cases (list / tuple / int / frame-with-text / whitespace).
- Replace Spotify-only labels in the wishlist and matching surface with metadata/provider-neutral wording
- Keep the existing matching behavior intact while removing the most visible Spotify-first text
- Pass source through artist, library, wishlist, and rehydration album-track fetches
- Preserve the resolved metadata source on cached discography and artist detail state
- Prevent 404s when opening artist-page album modals from non-Spotify sources
