Adds an opt-in `rank_candidates_by_quality` profile flag. When on, the
priority-mode download walk orders candidates by the ranked-target quality
(confidence/speed only break ties) instead of confidence-first. Default off
keeps the byte-for-byte old behaviour, so existing installs are unaffected.
Best-quality search mode is always quality-first regardless of the flag; the
toggle only affects priority mode. Search-time source selection is unchanged —
nothing is skipped, so a track can never go missing, only the order in which
copies are tried changes.
The version-mismatch force-import follows automatically: it accepts the
first-tried (= best-ordered) quarantined candidate, which is the highest-quality
one once the walk is quality-first. No change to its selection logic needed.
- core/quality/selection.py: load_rank_candidates_by_quality() (fail-closed).
- core/downloads/task_worker.py: _best_quality_ordering -> _candidate_ordering;
quality-first when best_quality mode OR the toggle is on.
- database/music_database.py: default profile carries the flag (False).
- web_server.py: flag is preserved globally across preset apply/reset, like
search_mode.
- core/imports/version_mismatch_fallback.py: comment clarified (no behaviour
change).
Tests (TDD): load_rank_candidates_by_quality default/enabled/disabled/error;
_candidate_ordering across all mode+toggle combinations + fail-closed.

Two subsystems post-process the same completed transfer: the browser-poll
status endpoint (web_server) and the background download monitor. Both watch
the same slskd/streaming transfers and each launches the verification
pipeline. When one path quarantines + requeues the next-best candidate
(clearing username/filename, status -> 'searching'), the monitor's
already-submitted run_post_processing_worker then runs, finds no source info,
and falsely marks the task 'failed' ("missing file or source information") —
clobbering the in-flight retry while a parallel attempt imports the song.
Fix: a single atomic claim (downloading/queued -> post_processing under
tasks_lock) so exactly one path processes each download.
- runtime_state: new claim_for_post_processing() helper
- post_processing: race guard — worker bails (no fail/notify) if the task is
no longer 'post_processing' when it runs
- web_server: both poll paths (Soulseek + streaming) claim before launching;
claim is released on thread-launch failure

The tab reads the v2 personalized framework (personalized_playlists), but the Discover page generates through the legacy path and nothing seeded those v2 rows -> the tab was empty. Fixes:
- New 'listening_mix' v2 generator: hands the scan's stored 'listening_recs_tracks_full' tracks to the personalized manager so the Listening Mix can mirror + Auto-Sync like every other kind (no pool hydration; can't shrink on rotation). Registered + tested.
- Sync tab now lists every registered SINGLETON kind (Listening Mix, Fresh Tape, Archives, Hidden Gems, Discovery Shuffle, Popular Picks) as a card, not just already-generated rows. Clicking 'Refresh & Mirror' runs the generator + mirrors. Variant kinds (decade/genre/daily) need a picker, so they're not auto-listed; existing variant rows still show.
Additive: new generator + frontend merge, no backend endpoint changes. End-to-end verified (refresh -> generate -> persist -> syncable tracks).
The mix is (artist, title) pairs acquired via Soulseek, so the recommendation fetch needn't match the user's active source. When the active source can't fetch top tracks (iTunes/Discogs/MusicBrainz — or Spotify when unauthed), fall back to Deezer's public artist/{id}/top (no auth, available to everyone). All five active sources now build a full mix without switching; the name-search + names_match guard still prevents wrong-artist results. New pure helper choose_mix_fetch_source + tests.
#913 was silently producing 0 recs: similar_artists.source_artist_id is a SOURCE id (Spotify/etc.), but the scan keyed id->name by internal artists.id (resolved nothing), and the consensus ranker was fed the name-collapsed get_top_similar_artists (consensus could never fire). Fixed + elevated:
- id->name keyed by source-id columns; raw per-seed edges (real consensus); similarity_rank threaded into the score; recency-weighted seeds (recent plays boost lifetime favs)
- new 'Based On Your Listening' artist row (/api/discover/listening-recommendations) with 'because you listen to X' explanations
- new 'Your Listening Mix' track row: each rec's top tracks via a guarded, name-resolved Spotify/Deezer fetch (falls back to the discovery pool), stored as full render dicts so the row can't shrink on pool rotation
- pure tested core: similarity_from_rank, build_recency_weighted_seeds, to_mix_track, names_match (+ rank-aware grouping)
Fresh Tape (5-10 tracks): future-dated albums sorted to the top of get_discovery_recent_albums and ate the 50-album budget before the is_future_release skip ran. Add exclude_future_years + fetch a generous budget; downstream caps unchanged. Regression tested.
Also drop the per-track block 'X' from the compact playlist rows (wrong spot). Plan/audit in DISCOVER_BEST_IN_CLASS_PLAN.md.
The SoundCloud/Amazon/Tidal/Qobuz/Deezer/HiFi/Lidarr clients did an UNGUARDED
mkdir(parents=True) on the configured download path in __init__. With a Docker
'/app' path (or any unmounted/misconfigured volume), that raises Permission
Denied, the plugin registry nulls the whole client, and the source vanishes —
SoulseekClient already guards the identical mkdir and just warns. Outside the
container this also failed every test_download_orchestrator_soundcloud.py test
(10) by leaving client('soundcloud') = None for the patch targets.
Fix: wrap the mkdir in try/except OSError + warn (matching soulseek) across all
seven clients and the orchestrator's runtime path-update; the dir is created
lazily at download time. Real robustness win: a slow/unmounted volume at boot no
longer silently drops download sources. Regression test forces an uncreatable
path and asserts init doesn't raise — pinned in any environment.
Full suite green: 6713 passed, 0 failed (was 10 failed).
'sami matar' was a wing-it FALLBACK stub — a placeholder the discovery pipeline
makes when it can't resolve a track to real metadata (no album, no cover). The
live sync explicitly skips wing_it_* ids for the wishlist (no metadata to act on),
but my re-add didn't — so it stored a coverless, single-classified placeholder.
That's why: sync didn't add it, no images, marked single.
Fix (parity): reconstruct refuses ids starting 'wing_it_'. Frontend renders the
'-> Wishlist' status as plain, non-clickable text for wing-it rows (with a tooltip)
since they were never actually wishlisted. Real tracks keep the working button +
the byte-identical-payload re-add from the prior fix.
Root cause (the real one): the auto-add passes original_tracks_map[id] — tracks_json
run through a specific normalization (album->dict with images/album_type/total_tracks/
release_date, artists->dicts). My re-add hand-rolled a different shape, so the stored
spotify_data didn't match and the wishlist's nebula (which reads spotify_data.album.
images[0].url) had no cover, plus album/single classification could differ.
Fix: extract that normalization into one shared build_original_tracks_map() and use it
in BOTH the live sync (core.discovery.sync) and the re-add. The re-add now resolves the
track by source_track_id through the same map — byte-identical payload. Verified on a
real sync row: re-add payload == live-sync payload, album.images present. (The shared
normalizer is also copy-safe, fixing a latent tracks_json mutation in the old inline
version.)
Fallback (track absent from tracks_json) rebuilds through the same normalizer with the
cover seeded from the row's image_url. 10 tests incl. a direct parity assertion.
The re-add showed no album/single art. Cause: reconstruct returned the full track
from tracks_json AS-IS — and some syncs store tracks_json lean (no album.images),
so the re-added wishlist entry had an empty album.images even though the track's
cover was sitting right there in the track_result's image_url.
Fix: always backfill album.images from the track_result's image_url when the album
has none (and copy the dict so tracks_json isn't mutated). Real album art is kept
when present; the 250px thumb only fills a gap. Verified against a real sync row in
all three cases (full / lean tracks_json / no tracks_json) — album.images now
populated in every one. The wishlist card reads album.images, so the cover shows.
In the dashboard Recent Syncs detail modal, the '→ Wishlist' status on unmatched
tracks is now a button. Clicking it re-adds that exact track to the wishlist with
the SAME context the sync used (source_type='playlist' + the playlist's name/id +
failure_reason), so it's indistinguishable from the original auto-add.
- reconstruct_sync_track_data() (pure, tested): prefers the full cached track from
tracks_json (by source_track_id, then index) so album art/full data carry over;
falls back to the track_result fields; refuses non-'wishlist' rows and rows with
no id (can't re-wishlist a matched/unidentifiable track).
- POST /api/sync/history/<id>/track/<i>/wishlist resolves the entry server-side and
calls the wishlist service; idempotent (reports added vs already-on-wishlist).
- button shows a busy state then '✓ Re-added' / '✓ On wishlist'.
7 pure tests (full-track preference, id-vs-index match, fallback rebuild, non-
wishlist + out-of-range refusal). JS/PY/ruff clean.
The ranked-target list is now the single source of truth for which formats
download, in the user's exact priority order, for ALL sources — no hardcoded
format hierarchy decides anything. A candidate passes only if it matches a
ranked target; if nothing matches, the existing Use-Fallback toggle decides.
- source_map: new shared format_from_extension() + AUDIO_EXTENSIONS — one
source of truth for extension→format used by every extension-based source, so
adding a format lights it up everywhere. Soulseek now classifies through it
(opus/wav/aiff were previously dropped as 'unknown').
- file_ops.probe_audio_quality (generic import-time guard, all sources): add
WMA; detect ALAC from the real codec (an .m4a is AAC or ALAC).
- soulseek: drop the AAC-specific opt-in gate — AAC now follows the same
universal rule as every format.
- model.tier_score: documented as ONLY a same-format tiebreak + fallback order,
never cross-format priority (the list owns that); add opus/alac bases.
- UI: ranked-target editor offers all formats (FLAC/ALAC/WAV·AIFF lossless with
bit-depth+sample-rate; MP3/AAC/OGG/Opus/WMA lossy with min-bitrate).
- tests: AAC retargeted to the universal model; new coverage for
format_from_extension and matches_target across all formats.

Adds the 'Align playlists' action to the out-of-order modal — a dedicated,
order-only write path that does NOT touch the normal sync. Subsonic has no
per-track move, so it overwrites the song list in source order via createPlaylist
+ playlistId (same primitive replace-mode uses; identity/id preserved).
- plan_align_rewrite() (pure, tested): matched server ids in source order; every
one must already be in the playlist (never injects a track); extras either
dropped ('Mirror source') or parked at the end ('Keep extras'); returns None on
stale data so a vanished track can't be written.
- navidrome rewrite_playlist_order() primitive (raw ordered ids).
- /api/server/playlist/<id>/align: validates ids are in the live playlist, then
rewrites. Navidrome-only for now (Plex/Jellyfin reorder = follow-up).
- modal gets two explained options; missing tracks are NOT added (normal sync's
job) and that's stated. Metadata-free by design — it only reshuffles existing
server ids, so there's no sync-parity surface.
Open: confirm createPlaylist+playlistId preserves the playlist comment/image on a
live Navidrome (same risk as replace mode); add a re-apply step if it doesn't.
- file_ops.probe_audio_quality: .aiff/.aif were opened with mutagen.wave.WAVE,
which can't parse AIFF — it raised, failed open, and let AIFF silently bypass
the quality filter. Route aiff/aif to mutagen.aiff.AIFF (still the 'wav'
lossless tier).
- test_hifi_preview_guard: _get_hls_manifest gained an expected_duration_s kwarg
and the start tier now comes from quality_tier_for_source (default profile ->
'hires'); accept the kwarg and pin the tier so the chain is deterministic.
- test_quarantine_management: quarantine_group_key intentionally no longer uses
source-specific ids/uri (they break cross-batch sibling matching); assert the
isrc -> normalized-name contract instead.

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.

PR #896 removed the per-source quality dropdowns; streaming sources now derive
their request tier from the global profile via quality_tier_for_source. Without
a migration, a user who had tidal_download/qobuz/hifi_download.quality on
'hires'/'hires_max' silently dropped to lossless (their migrated v2 'flac (any)'
top target resolves to the lossless tier).
_migrate_v2_to_v3 now seeds the 24-bit FLAC ladder at the top of ranked_targets
when such a Hi-Res source preference is detected — but only if the profile
doesn't already express 24-bit, so it never duplicates the ladder.

#3 priority mode is quality-agnostic again: search_with_fallback (the
priority/hybrid path — best_quality has its own search_all_sources) returned
the first source whose results met a target, so an mp3 with bitrate=None (slskd
omits it often) was deemed unsatisfied and deprioritised, changing which source
wins for users who never opted in. Restore "first source with tracks wins",
byte-for-byte; cross-source quality pooling stays in best_quality mode.
#4 metadata-less FLAC no longer over-claims a hi-res target: matches_target let
a FLAC with no sample_rate/bit_depth satisfy a 24-bit/192k target while a real
16/44 FLAC failed it, so unknown-spec files outranked and discarded genuine CD
FLAC under audiophile/hi-res profiles. An unconfirmable spec now fails the strict
tier and falls to the plain-flac bucket.

The editor renders the server column in SOURCE order (reconcile_playlist pairs
each server track to its source row), so a reordered-but-same-membership playlist
read as '5 matched / in sync' when Navidrome's real order actually differed — the
reorder never reaching the server was invisible.
- compute_order_status() (pure, tested): matched tracks' server positions must be
strictly ascending in source order; uses RELATIVE order so missing/extra tracks
never false-flag. reconcile entries now carry server_index (additive).
- endpoint returns order_status + server_order (the server's actual sequence).
- editor shows an amber 'out of order' badge on the server column when membership
matches but sequence differs, opening a read-only modal of the real server order.
One-way: source order stays the source of truth; no server-side editing.
Tests reproduce the reported 'Real Love Baby moved to #2' case + guard against
false-flagging on missing/extra. The actual 'sync order' WRITE is a separate
follow-up (membership/extra semantics + live identity-preservation test pending).
The limit=200 fix only helped FRESH fetches. The metadata cache is persistent
(SQLite, 30-day TTL), so any album whose tracklist was cached at 50 BEFORE the
fix keeps returning 50 from cache in every window that loads it (line returned
the cached entry without revalidating) — which is why the Standard-view add-album
modal still showed 50 while a freshly-fetched album in the download window showed
the full list. Same album, different cache state.
Fix: get_album_tracks now marks freshly-fetched entries '_complete'. On a cache
hit, a legacy entry without that flag is revalidated against the album's known
trackCount (from collection metadata, unaffected by the bug) and re-fetched if
short. The '_complete' flag makes the heal one-time and avoids a re-fetch loop on
region-restricted albums where available tracks < trackCount.
Tests: stale-truncated -> refetch+heal; _complete -> trusted; legacy-complete and
unknown-trackCount -> trusted (no regression). Fresh fetch carries _complete.
A Spotify Free (no-auth) user saw 'Showing Discogs results - not from your
primary source (Deezer)' on the manual album-import search. Root cause:
get_primary_source() deliberately downgrades an unauthenticated Spotify to the
working fallback (deezer) so client routing always yields a usable client - and
the import payload reused that FUNCTIONAL value for the LABEL. The free source
has no album-name search (SpotifyFreeMetadataClient.search_albums() returns []),
so falling back for results is correct; only the label was wrong.
Fix: get_primary_source_label() preserves the user's configured intent (Spotify
Free reads as 'spotify') without touching client routing or the search chain.
The import album/track/suggestions payloads now return the label; the functional
source still drives the hydrabase-enqueue + fallback chain. Banner now reads
'not from your primary source (Spotify)'.
Tests: seam tests for get_primary_source_label + route regression pinning the
label/functional decoupling; updated 4 existing import-route tests.
safe_move_file used shutil.move, which for a CROSS-filesystem move (downloads volume ->
library volume, common in Docker/NAS) copies the file to the FINAL path incrementally. A
media-server real-time watcher (Jellyfin) can catch that partial file mid-write and cache it
with null/incomplete metadata — tracks landing with no disc. Inconsistent because it only bites
cross-fs and races the scan tick; 're-add library' fixes it (rescan reads the now-complete file)
and the on-disk tags are fine — exactly the reported symptoms.
Fix: same-fs uses an atomic os.replace (also overwrites dst); cross-fs copies to a HIDDEN temp
sibling, fsyncs, then atomic os.replace into place (+ temp cleanup on failure). A watcher only
ever sees the COMPLETE file. EXDEV/EPERM/EACCES + the old string check route here, so detection
is strictly broader than before.
Tests: same-fs move, simulated EXDEV routes to the atomic path and leaves no partial temp, helper
completes+cleans, helper cleans temp + preserves source on failure. Existing replace-destination
test still green; 574 imports+relocate tests pass.
The stored similar_artists rows key the similar artist by the SEED's source/db id, not its name,
so rank_recommended_artists can't consume them directly. group_similars_by_seed resolves each
row's source id to a seed name via a caller-supplied id_to_name map and reshapes to the
{seed_name: [{'name': similar}]} the ranker wants — the fragile id->name join, now pure + tested
(dataclass + dict rows, unknown-id drop, non-seed drop, group->rank end-to-end). 15 tests total.
New, fully-additive module — the heart of the 'expand Because You Listen To into a real
listening-driven block' plan. Two pure functions, no DB/network/config:
- rank_recommended_artists(seeds, similars_by_seed, owned): consensus-ranked artists you'd love
but don't own. Score = Σ over endorsing seeds of (play_weight × similarity) — rewards consensus,
play weight and similarity strength in one sum. Excludes owned + seeds; min_seed_count is the
adventurousness dial's lever; exposes seed_count + which seeds ('because you like A, B, C').
- aggregate_candidate_tracks(recs, top_tracks_by_artist, owned): per-artist-capped, deduped,
rank-ordered candidate list for the generated playlist; exclude_owned toggles discovery vs replay.
11 tests (consensus vs single, play-weight, similarity, owned/seed exclusion, min_seed_count,
case-insensitive dedup, per-artist cap, owned exclusion, total limit, empty-artist skip). Nothing
existing touched — wiring into the watchlist scan + playlist sync comes next.
Second leak of the same class: redownload_start built full album_data (release_date/album_type/
total_tracks) only in the Spotify branch. The iTunes and Deezer branches set just track/disc number
and left album_data lean ({'name': ...}), so single-track redownloads on those sources dropped the
$year — same symptom as #915 in the add/download path.
Fix: both branches now fetch the album via get_album_for_source (cached, source-aware) and build
album_data through the shared _album_data_from_source helper, mirroring the Spotify branch. Falls
back to the lean default if the fetch returns nothing (no regression). get_album is cached on both
iTunes and Deezer, so no extra API cost.
Tests: _album_data_from_source (full build, image-url fallback, defaults). 694 library+downloads
tests green.
Root cause: the only album-context backfill in the download path (hydrate_download_metadata) goes
through spotify_client.get_track_details — Spotify-only. An iTunes/Deezer-primary user's download
kept a lean context (no release_date), so the path dropped $year and the date defaulted to
YYYY-01-01 — until they ran a Reorganize, which reads the full album from the PRIMARY source. That
asymmetry IS the bug.
Fix: when the context is lean and the primary source isn't Spotify, hydrate it from that source via
get_album_for_source — the exact path Reorganize/Enrich use. Verified the primary source returns the
real data (live iTunes get_album for the reporter's album: release_date 2024-04-17, not 2024-01-01).
backfill_album_context_from_source is a pure, injected-fn seam: 6 tests (hydrate, no-op when
complete / spotify-primary / sentinel-id, stays-lean on None, swallows source errors). 552 downloads
tests green.
iTunes get_album_tracks called _lookup(id, entity='song') with no limit. The iTunes Lookup API
returns only 50 related entities unless limit is passed (max 200), so albums over 50 tracks showed
only the first 50 in the download window. Pass limit=200 on the main lookup AND the fallback-
storefront request.
Proven against the live iTunes API on the reporter's exact album (Frieren OST, id 1739445636,
70 tracks): no limit -> 50 songs, limit=200 -> 70 songs. Spotify already paginates; Deezer uses
limit=500 — iTunes was the only truncating source. Regression test asserts limit=200 is requested.
The import rebuilds the destination path from album metadata. When the albums row has no year,
release_date is empty, the path template drops $year, and the copied file lands in a NEW yearless
directory instead of the album's existing 'Album (YYYY)' folder. (The code logically forces this:
the year only drops when album.year is empty.)
Fix: when album.year is empty, recover it from a sibling track — its own year column, else a
(YYYY)/[YYYY] in the album folder name — so the rebuilt path matches the existing directory.
No-op when album.year is already set.
Tests: _existing_album_year_from_sibling covers year-column, paren folder, bracket folder, no-signal,
and target-slot exclusion.
reconcile_playlist read the existing playlist's track ids with str(t.id), but NavidromeTrack
exposes the Subsonic song id as .ratingKey and has NO .id attribute (append_to_playlist already
reads ratingKey — reconcile was the straggler). So current_ids came back EMPTY every time:
plan_playlist_reconcile saw an 'empty' playlist, re-added the entire matched set, and removed
nothing. Result: the playlist grew by the full track count on every sync (warl0ck: 5 songs, one
removed -> 9), in reconcile mode and whenever reconcile is the active mode.
Fix: read current ids via ratingKey, matching append_to_playlist.
Verified: tests/test_navidrome_reconcile.py drives the real reconcile_playlist with a stubbed
server — reverting the one-char change flips 3 tests red (they show it re-adding all 4 tracks),
the fix flips them green. Covers no-op resync, a removed track (remove, don't re-add all), and an
added track (append once).
sync_playlist computed deduped_tracks but the dispatch (append/reconcile/replace) sent the raw
valid_tracks — so a library track matched by more than one source entry was pushed multiple
times each sync. Extracted _dedupe_by_rating_key (tested) and routed all three modes through it.
This fixes the WITHIN-sync duplication. The cross-sync growth reporters describe (Navidrome
playlist doubling every resync) is a separate server-push issue still under diagnosis.
iTunes appends featured-artist credits to track titles ('The Chase (feat. Y)') while the user's
file is often just 'The Chase'. _normalize_title only stripped the parens, keeping 'feat y' as
words, so the title-match ratio fell below the 0.6 substring floor — and with no track-number
rescue the track was reported 'no matching track in the iTunes tracklist' even though it was the
right song.
Strip feat/ft/featuring credits (parenthesised anywhere, or a bare trailing 'feat. X') before
normalizing, so both sides reduce to the same title and match exactly. Guarded so 'The Feat',
'Defeat', 'Lift' aren't touched, and version differentiators (Remix) still hard-reject.
Tests: 8 new (strip variants + the exact no-tn failure + cross-match/remix regressions); 63
existing reorganize tests still green.
YouTube's flat playlist extraction returns ONLY the title (verified: no artist/channel/uploader
field at all), so a track starts as 'Unknown Artist' and only gains a name if per-video recovery
succeeds. When recovery comes up empty (no cookies / age-gated / bot-checked) but the track still
matched confidently, the worker threw the match's artist away and left the column 'Unknown Artist'
— the #909 symptom.
Now the displayed yt_artist falls back to the matched artist when it's still Unknown. Display-only:
the match itself, track['artists'], cache, and download flow are untouched, so a real recovered
name always wins and an unmatched/error row honestly stays Unknown. Extracted resolve_display_artist
as a pure, tested seam; applied in the cache-hit and fresh-match result paths (the error path has
no match to draw from).
The #891 'also remove image/sidecar-only folders' toggle never worked. Job settings are
persisted as a nested dict under repair.jobs.<id>.settings (RepairWorker.set_job_settings),
but the scan read flat keys — repair.jobs.empty_folder_cleaner.remove_residual_files — which
never matched, so it always fell back to the False default and skipped every image/.lrc-only
folder. (remove_junk_files had the same mismatch but its default is True, which is why only the
truly-empty 'deleted' folder kept showing up.) Now reads from .settings like get_job_config /
lossy_converter do.
The pure dir_is_removable logic was already correct + tested; the bug was purely the config
read in scan(), which had no test. Added two scan-level regression tests driving the real
JobContext + a config that stores the toggle the way the UI does.
Full Refresh INSERTs a per-track year (from file tags) into tracks.year, but that column
was only ever in the live INSERT — never in CREATE TABLE and never in a migration. So on
EVERY db (old and current — verified the shipped music_library.db lacks it too) every Full
Refresh track insert hard-failed with 'table tracks has no column named year', importing 0
tracks while artists/albums succeeded.
Fix (additive + nullable, nothing reads it but the writer):
- add year INTEGER to the tracks CREATE TABLE (new DBs)
- ALTER it onto existing tracks tables in _ensure_core_media_schema_columns (the repair
backstop that already runs every init), right beside the file_size repair
Tests (tests/test_tracks_year_migration.py): fresh-DB has it, nullable, idempotent, ALTERs
onto an old year-less table, and a regression that the exact Full Refresh insert fails
before the repair and succeeds after.
The two library quality jobs overlapped confusingly. Keep both, but make
each one's role obvious and put them on the same v3 quality definition.
Quality Upgrade Finder (quality_upgrade) — the ACTIVE job:
- Quality decision moved from v2 (extension + DB bitrate) to v3: probes the
REAL file with mutagen (measured bit depth / sample rate / bitrate) and
checks it against the profile's ranked targets — same as the import guard.
- New optional `deep_audio_verify` setting (default OFF): also run the ffmpeg
decode guard (truncation + silence); a broken file is proposed for replacement.
- Renamed to "Quality Upgrade Finder (active — proposes a replacement)" + help
text spells out it actively searches a better version and queues it.
- v3 helpers imported at module level so they stay monkeypatchable in tests.
Quality Check (quality_upgrade_scanner) — the FLAG-ONLY job:
- `deep_audio_verify` default flipped ON->OFF (the ffmpeg decode is the
CPU-heavy step; matches the download pipeline's default).
- Renamed to "Quality Check (flag only — you decide per finding)" + help text
contrasts it with the active Finder.
UI: deep_audio_verify setting label now shows "(ffmpeg decode — CPU heavy)".
Tests: scan() tests stub the v3 probe path (probe_audio_quality /
quality_meets_profile / resolve_library_file_path) since they use fake paths.
The v2 pure-function helpers stay (still unit-tested).

Re-running an export created a new LB playlist every time (LB keys on MBID, not name, and
create always mints a new one). Now remember which LB playlist a mirror was pushed to and
update it in place:
- listenbrainz_client: refactor batched-add into _add_tracks_in_batches; add
get_playlist_track_count, delete_playlist, update_playlist (verify exists -> clear items via
item/delete -> re-add -> edit title; reports gone=True if deleted on LB), and
create_or_update_playlist (update when we have a prior MBID, else create; falls back to
create if the remembered one was deleted). Stable URL/MBID across re-syncs.
- playlist_export_targets table + get/set_playlist_export_target: remember (mirror, target) -> LB MBID.
- export job consults/stores the target so push updates in place.
+6 mocked tests (clear+re-add same mbid, gone-fallback, create-or-update branches, delete). API
endpoints (item/delete, playlist/edit, playlist/delete, GET count) confirmed against LB docs;
live round-trip pending explicit auth.
Phase 4. core/exports/export_sources.py supplies the real I/O behind each waterfall source
and assembles resolve_fn: cache -> DB (tracks.musicbrainz_recording_id via text match) ->
file tag (UFID/musicbrainz_trackid) -> live MusicBrainz match_recording. Every source is
fail-safe (any error -> None -> fall through, export never breaks). A fresh non-cache hit is
written back to the persistent cache so the same song is free next export. Sources are
injectable; build_resolve_fn wiring (cache short-circuit + write-back) is unit-tested. 4 tests.
Phase 3. Additive backbone for the export job:
- mb_recording_cache table (IF NOT EXISTS) + core/exports/recording_mbid_cache.py: persistent
(artist,title)->recording_mbid cache, mirrors album_mbid_cache (lazy DB, error-degrades to
miss). The MusicBrainz tail is ~1 req/s, so a resolved MBID is remembered once and reused
across every export/playlist.
- core/exports/playlist_export.py: resolve_playlist_tracks(tracks, resolve_fn) — walks tracks,
dedups repeated songs within a run (resolve once), builds the ordered pseudo-playlist, tallies
live stats (resolved/unmatched/deduped/by_source). Pure (I/O injected via resolve_fn + progress
callback), so dedup + accounting are unit-tested with no DB/network. 5 tests.
No wiring into runtime yet; nothing existing touched except the additive table.
Phase 2. Add create_playlist(title, tracks, public) to the LB client: POST /playlist/create
for the MBID, then add tracks in batches of 100 (MAX_RECORDINGS_PER_ADD) via the item/add
endpoint so 1k-track playlists don't hit a single-request cap. Returns a result dict
{success, playlist_mbid, playlist_url, added, requested, error} and never raises — partial
add failures are reported honestly (playlist created, added count accurate). Extends the
existing token-auth client; additive. 4 mocked-network tests (batching, auth, failure).
Phase 1 of exporting mirrored playlists to ListenBrainz. Two pure, fully-tested seams,
zero runtime wiring yet (additive, no regression):
- core/exports/jspf_export.py: build_jspf(title, tracks) -> ({"playlist": {...}}, summary).
LB's POST /1/playlist/create requires every track to carry a string identifier
'https://musicbrainz.org/recording/<mbid>' (text-only tracks are rejected), so tracks
without a valid recording-MBID UUID are dropped and counted in the coverage summary.
- core/exports/mbid_resolver.py: resolve_recording_mbid(artist, title, sources) — the
cheapest-first waterfall (cache -> DB -> file tag -> MusicBrainz) as a pure function over
injected (label, fn) sources. Short-circuits expensive lookups, treats a raising source
as a miss (one flaky MB call can't fail the export), reports the resolving source label.
API spec confirmed against LB docs: POST /1/playlist/create, 'Authorization: Token <t>',
{"playlist": {"title", "track": [{"identifier": "<mb recording url>", title, creator, album}]}}.
13 tests.
Standalone _run_soulsync_deep_scan did a path-only diff (untracked = transfer files
not in the soulsync DB) and shutil.move'd EVERY untracked file to Staging — no guard.
When the DB is empty/out of sync with disk (volume swap, DB reset, external Picard
tag edits) but Transfer holds the real library, that flags the whole library as
untracked and relocates all of it; Phase 5 then deletes the rows, and with Staging
cleanup on the files are gone for good. Reporter lost ~1,500 tracks into Staging.
The stale_guard the orphan detector + media-server deep scan already use (#828, #908)
was never wired into this path. Fix:
- core/library/standalone_scan.py (pure, tested): plan_standalone_deep_scan() diffs
untracked (separator-normalized) and decides whether the move is safe. Blocks when
the untracked share is implausibly large (>20 files AND >50% of Transfer — the
desync signature, via is_implausible_orphan_flood) or when the user marked Transfer
permanent. A normal batch of new arrivals still moves.
- web_server: consult the planner before Phase 4; on block, move NOTHING, leave files
in place, and surface a loud warning + activity item. Guard Phase 5 deletes too
(skip on desync-block or implausible stale share).
- 'Transfer is my permanent library — never move files out' toggle
(import.transfer_is_permanent) in Settings.
- tests/library/test_standalone_scan.py: seam coverage + the #904 regression
(empty DB + 1,500 files -> blocked, nothing moved).
No behavior change for in-sync libraries; the guard only trips on the desync pattern.
Private YT Music playlists (a user's Liked Music, list=LM) need auth, but the
only cookie option was cookiesfrombrowser — a browser on the same machine as
SoulSync, useless on a headless/Docker box (and locked to whatever account that
browser happens to be signed into). Add a 'Paste cookies.txt' mode so users can
supply the exact session they want from any machine.
- core/youtube_cookies.py: pure seam — build_youtube_cookie_opts (cookiefile vs
cookiesfrombrowser precedence, mutually exclusive, fail-safe on a missing file),
looks_like_cookiefile (needs a real cookie row; rejects junk/header-only),
write_pasted_cookiefile (validate + 0600 write; blank/junk never clobbers a saved file).
- _youtube_cookie_opts() delegates to the seam, so every yt-dlp call site gets it.
- /api/settings pops cookies_paste before the generic persist, validates (400 on
junk), writes config/youtube_cookies.txt, stores only the path (blob never hits config.json).
- Settings dropdown gains 'Paste cookies.txt'; selecting it reveals a textarea.
- tests/test_youtube_cookies.py: precedence, validation, fail-safe write (11 tests).
Tracks auto-downloaded from the playlist pipeline / wishlist / watchlist landed as
01/1 even though they belong to multi-track albums (wolf/Sokhi; verified live —
Deezer says 'Obelisk' is track 9 of The Grand Mirage, Olives is 3/4, etc.).
Root cause, located in code: discovery doesn't carry a per-track position for
sources whose search/track endpoint omits it (Deezer search, MusicBrainz
recordings — only their ALBUM endpoint has it). detect_album_info_web then set
'track_number': track_info.get('track_number') (= None) and never looked it up
from the album it HAD identified (context.py); the pipeline floored it to 1. The
one helper that does an album lookup only ran for the no-album-context branch and
is gated off by default. Not isolated to Deezer — the gap is source-agnostic.
Fix: when the album is known (album_id present) but the position is missing,
resolve the REAL (track_number, disc_number) from the album's own track list via
the source-agnostic get_album_tracks_for_source — using the album id discovery
already picked (no re-search, no edition guessing). Matches by ISRC -> source
track id -> title. Fail-safe: any miss/error leaves the number untouched, so it
still falls through to the filename exactly as before — never worse than today.
kettui: pure seam core/imports/album_position.resolve_track_position_in_album
(I/O-free, ISRC>id>title priority, skips position-less entries) + a fail-safe
integration wrapper, both covered — 11 tests incl. the 'Obelisk = 9/12' case,
priority resolution, and never-raises-on-fetch-error. 788 import/context/pipeline
tests green, ruff clean.
Confirmed from Sokhi's FLAC tags + screenshot: disc-2/3 tracks land in the 'Disc 1'
folder, collapsing every disc's track 3/4/5/6 into one folder. Root cause: the
import pipeline syncs the resolved TRACK number into album_info (so the folder
matches the tag — pipeline.py '[FIX] Updated album_info track_number') but never
did the same for DISC. So the 'Disc N' folder (built from album_info.disc_number,
often 1) used a different disc than the embedded tag (resolved per-track in
source.py — e.g. 2/3 from a MusicBrainz multi-medium release).
Fix: one SHARED resolver, resolve_disc_for_track(original_search, album_info),
used by BOTH source.py (the tag) and the pipeline (which now writes it back into
album_info before building the path). Same function + same inputs (the pipeline
pulls the identical get_import_original_search(context)), so folder and tag can
never disagree. Returns the first valid positive disc (per-track, then album),
else 1 — a falsy/unknown per-track disc falls through to the album instead of
flooring early.
Tests: resolver preference/fallback/floor + an explicit folder==tag lockstep check
incl. Sokhi's per-track-2/album-1 case. 2122 import/pipeline/metadata tests green.
Sokhi: some tracks in a multi-disc album showed up with a null disc in Jellyfin
and floated ungrouped above the disc sections (tracks 3/9/15). Mechanism: the tag
writer only wrote the disc tag when disc_number was truthy, and enrichment CLEARS
all tags before rewriting — so a track whose disc came back 0 / None / '' lost its
disc entirely. Those falsy values slipped through because source.py defaulted with
'is not None' (a literal 0 passed) and context.py's or-chain can yield None; this
happens especially when a track resolves to a different edition than its siblings.
Fix: normalize_disc_number() floors any value to >=1, and enrichment now writes the
disc tag UNCONDITIONALLY (like the track number) so a track is never disc-less.
source.py uses the same floor so the metadata dict (and the 'Disc N' folder org)
stays consistent. Valid multi-disc values are preserved untouched.
Tests: normalize floors 0/None/''/negatives/non-numeric -> 1, preserves 1..4 and
tolerates '2.0'. 1406 enrich/metadata/track-number tests green, ruff clean.
NOTE: this fixes the SYMPTOM (never ungrouped). The deeper cause — a track matching
a DIFFERENT edition/release than its album siblings (the Persona-box-set mismatch in
the sample file; the canonical-version problem) — is separate and still open.
The mirror_playlist fix only assigns stable ids to newly-imported playlists, so a
user with an existing file-import playlist would still have empty-id rows (and dead
Find & Add matches) until a manual re-import. Add an idempotent startup backfill that
assigns the SAME stable id a fresh import would to any mirrored track missing one —
so existing matches start sticking with no re-import. Runs once per db/process (the
init is guarded), only touches empty-id rows (no-op afterward), native ids untouched.
Tests: backfill fills empty ids with the exact fresh-import id, is idempotent (2nd
run = 0), and leaves native ids alone.
A Find & Add on a file-import (CSV/M3U/TXT) playlist track was silently dropped and
the track re-appeared as 'extra' (radoslav-orlov). Root cause: unlike Spotify/YouTube
(native ids), file-import + iTunes-only tracks arrive with an EMPTY source_track_id —
and the whole manual-match system keys on it. _persist_find_and_add_match is a no-op
on an empty id, and find_manual_library_match_by_source_track_id returns None for one,
so the match can be neither recorded nor looked up. That's the youtube-vs-file
difference the reporter noticed.
Fix: stable_source_track_id() derives a DETERMINISTIC 'file:<hash>' id from the track
identity (artist|title|album, normalized) when there's no native id; mirror_playlist
assigns it so the SAME song gets the SAME id across re-imports/discovery — exactly
what the match lookup needs. Native ids are used verbatim; bonus: discovery extra_data
now survives a re-import for these tracks too.
Tests: helper (native passthrough, deterministic + case/field-insensitive, distinct
per song, empty-on-no-title, file: prefix); mirror_playlist integration (file tracks
get stable distinct ids, stable across re-import, native ids untouched). 319 playlist/
sync/discovery/mirrored tests green.
wolf39us: a Find & Add manual match got dropped on auto-sync (60->57) with a 404
fetching the stored Plex ratingKey. Root cause: Plex re-keys tracks on a metadata
refresh, and the SoulSync DB id IS that ratingKey — so until a SoulSync rescan BOTH
the durable match's library_track_id AND the file-path self-heal (which reads the
same DB) land on the dead key, fetchItem 404s, the track falls through to fuzzy
(also the dead key) and is dropped.
Fix: when both DB-side lookups miss on Plex, re-resolve the manual match against
LIVE Plex by the matched track's metadata, disambiguated by the stored file path
so the user's EXACT chosen track wins among multiple versions; return the current
live track and heal the stored id + sync cache. A manual match is now never dropped
or silently re-matched — it 'always overrides' as asked. Scoped to Plex (DB-backed
servers materialize off the DB and don't have this re-key problem).
Seam tests: file-path picks the right version over a live alternate, basename
fallback for server-vs-local paths, no-file-match falls back to top hit (never
drop), no results/empty title -> None, and a broken client never raises.
A MusicBrainz album resolves its art at RELEASE-GROUP scope even for a concrete
release (musicbrainz_search _release_to_album -> _cached_art prefers the rg mbid).
On the Cover Art Archive a release-group front is a single REPRESENTATIVE cover
(CAA picks one release to stand for the group, ~always the standard edition), so
a special edition like "Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (Gustave Edition)" got the
standard art baked into cover.jpg + embedded tags at download time.
Add core/metadata/caa_art.fetch_release_preferred_art: try the specific release
own /release/<mbid>/front first, fall back to the existing release-group/provider
URL only when the release has no art of its own (404 -> None). Wire it into both
download_cover_art (cover.jpg) and embed_album_art_metadata (tags) so they stay
in sync. min_bytes defaults to 0 so the fallback keeps its prior behavior — this
can only ever ADD a better edition match, never strip a cover that showed before.
Caveat (documented, not fixed here): this only helps when the resolved release IS
the right edition. If the upstream match picked the standard release/group, that
is the separate canonical-version matching problem.
Tests: pure helper (prefers release art, falls back on 404/tiny/exception, no-mbid
passes through, nothing-available -> None). 667 metadata/artwork/deezer/hifi tests pass.
Files inside an Organize-by-Playlist folder were stuck with the library filename
(materializer hardcoded os.path.basename) — users wanted control over the naming,
e.g. a playlist-order prefix so a DAP plays them in order.
Add an opt-in FILENAME template "Playlist File Naming" (file_organization.templates
.playlist_item), tokens $position/$artist/$album/$track/$title. It is a filename,
not a path: validated to forbid "/" or "\" and to require $title, both in the
Settings UI (blocks save with a reason) and in core/playlists/item_naming.py, which
also fails safe at apply time — a bad/empty template falls back to the library
filename, so it can never produce a broken name. Default empty = current behavior.
Works for symlink AND copy modes (a symlink name is independent of its target).
Applied in _rebuild_one_from_db (the live reconcile/rebuild path), which has the
per-track metadata + playlist order; the pure FS materializer just gained an
optional dest_names override and is otherwise untouched. $position is zero-padded
to playlist width for correct sorting.
Tests: pure validate/render (slash + missing-title rejected, fallback, sanitize,
no-separator guarantee), FS-layer dest_names + collision disambiguation + back-
compat, and end-to-end through the DB rebuild (07->01 rename + empty-template
keeps library filename).
Two issues behind #897:
1) Discoverability — the "Ignored" management modal (view/un-ignore/clear-all,
shipped with #874) was only reachable from the wishlist *overview modal*
footer, which most users never open. Add the same button to the wishlist
page toolbar next to Cleanup / Clear All, wired to openWishlistIgnoreModal().
2) Manual re-add silently blocked (carlosjfcasero) — the album-modal "add to
wishlist" endpoint passes source_type=album, but the ignore gate only
bypasses+clears for source_type=manual, so re-adding a previously-cancelled
track failed. We cannot just send manual: source_type drives Albums/Singles
categorisation and repair_worker legitimately uses album too. Thread an
explicit user_initiated flag (db.add_to_wishlist -> service -> album route)
that bypasses+clears the ignore while preserving the real source_type.
Regression test pins both: an automatic source_type=album add stays blocked,
the user_initiated add goes through, clears the ignore, and keeps source_type=album.
_get_artist_variations only widened the candidate fetch by diacritics, so a
request for "The Black Eyed Peas" never pulled a library track filed under
"Black Eyed Peas" (or vice-versa) — it "failed to match" and re-downloaded a
duplicate. Toggle the leading "The" in both directions when widening the fetch;
the confidence scorer (50/50 title/artist, 0.882 across the "The" gap) still has
the final say, so this can only widen what gets fetched, never merge genuinely
different artists. Mid-word "The" (e.g. "Theory of a Deadman") is untouched.
Closes the gap from cf2b4d7d: that commit unit-tested the DB-only matcher twin but
not services.sync_service._find_track_in_media_server — the actual path a connected
Plex/Jellyfin user hits. Drive it directly (Jellyfin server-type, so no Plex fetchItem
mocking): durable manual match is honored when the volatile cache is wiped, and a
stale library id self-heals via the stored file path.
Find & Add was being forgotten on the next auto-sync. It persists two ways — a fast
sync_match_cache override AND a durable manual_library_match (#787) that survives a
rescan — but BOTH sync matchers (services.sync_service._find_track_in_media_server and
the DB-only fallback) only consulted the volatile cache. A library rescan wipes that
cache, so the next 'replace' auto-sync re-matched the track from scratch and the user
had to Find & Add it again.
Both matchers now fall back to the durable manual match when the cache misses
(self-healing a stale library id via the stored file path), exactly like the compare
view already does via resolve_durable_match_server_id. So a Find & Add pairing sticks
across rescans + auto-syncs. Seam tests: cache-wiped→durable hit, stale-id self-heal,
no-match→fuzzy fall-through.
The log from a fresh run showed detection working but a second bug: rejecting the
lossless preview ('decoded 30s of 180s — rejecting') just dropped to the SAME track's
'high' (lossy m4a) tier — the same 30s clip — which the bitrate check can't see (m4a,
not FLAC), so it was accepted. A preview at any tier means the SOURCE only has a
preview of the track; lower tiers are the same clip. So on preview detection (manifest
OR post-download) we now return None to FAIL HiFi entirely, letting the orchestrator's
hybrid fallback try the next SOURCE (soulseek/youtube) instead of landing a lower-tier
preview. (A genuinely-missing tier still falls through to the next tier as before.)
Integration test drives the post-download abort end-to-end and pins 'no tier cascade'.
The first fix (#895) only caught manifests that HONESTLY declared a short length. The
real-world fakes are nastier: every length header is faked to FULL — HLS #EXTINF, the
m4a moov, AND the demuxed FLAC's STREAMINFO total_samples — while the file holds only
~30s of real audio. So the manifest-sum and mutagen-length checks both read 'full' and
passed it through. Measured 23 issue files: every one decoded to ~30s with a claimed
full length; size/claimed gave an impossible 55-362 kbps 'lossless', size/30s gave a
plausible ~600-1100 kbps.
Detect it two independent ways (post-download), so it fires even when every header lies:
- decoded real length via ffmpeg (-f null) vs the largest claimed length — the ground
truth when a decoder is present (production demuxes with ffmpeg, so it is);
- for lossless, an impossibly-low implied bitrate (< 30% of raw PCM) — needs no decoder,
catches all 23 on its own.
Pure is_fake_lossless_bitrate / is_preview_download / parse_ffmpeg_time helpers with seam
tests pinned to the real #895 file numbers. Reference is max(expected, container-claimed)
so the file's own faked claim becomes the bar its real audio must clear.
Fixes#895 — https://github.com/Nezreka/SoulSync/issues/895
HiFi (Tidal via hifi-api) sometimes serves a PREVIEW HLS manifest — only ~30s of
segments — for a full-length track. SoulSync downloaded exactly what the manifest
contained, and the only validation was a 100KB size floor (a 30s lossless preview is
~3-4MB, so it passed as 'complete') → a junk file that shows full length but plays ~30s.
Add two duration guards, both keyed off the track's real length (from get_track_info):
- Pre-download: sum the manifest's #EXTINF segment durations; if far short of the
expected track length, it's a preview → skip that tier, fall through to the next
source without wasting the download. (The parser discarded #EXTINF before.)
- Post-download: probe the finished file's real length (mutagen) and reject if short —
backs up legacy/direct (no-EXTINF) downloads and catches any truncation.
Conservative: unknown/zero durations never reject. Pure sum_hls_segment_seconds /
is_short_audio helpers with seam tests.
A downloaded track was getting the wrong track number (e.g. 'Apologize' from Shock
Value tagged track 1 instead of 16). Root cause: Deezer PLAYLIST track objects don't
carry `track_position` (only `/track/<id>` and `/album/<id>/tracks` do — even the
album object's embedded tracks omit it, verified against the live API). Both Deezer
playlist builders numbered tracks by their enumerate INDEX, which poisoned the real
album track number — and that value rides into the wishlist and onto the file tag.
Resolve the authoritative position from each album's `/album/<id>/tracks` (cache-first,
handles multi-disc) via a shared resolve_album_track_positions() helper, used by both
deezer_client.get_playlist and deezer_download_client.get_playlist_tracks. Falls back
to the index only if the album lookup fails (no regression). Seam tests for the helper.
Switching presets now restores the user's prior edits to that preset
instead of factory defaults. Edits are stashed per preset name under
the quality_profile_presets preference; 'custom'/unknown names are not
stashed. Adds a /reset endpoint + "Reset to defaults" UI link to drop a
preset's saved edits.
- DB: set_quality_profile stashes per-preset; get_quality_preset returns
the customized form by default, _factory_quality_preset for the raw
defaults; reset_quality_preset forgets a preset's edits.
- web_server: apply-preset carries the global search_mode across switches;
new preset/<name>/reset endpoint.
- UI: target edits now save via debouncedSaveQualityProfile (profile-only,
no full settings re-init/flicker); preset switch suppresses the global
auto-save listener; help text + reset link.

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.
Files named '01 - Sun It Rises.flac' with no embedded title tag leaked the stem,
number and all, into tracks.title as '01 - Sun It Rises' — which never matches the
canonical 'Sun It Rises', so the real track reads as a false 'missing' and albums
sort wrong.
New conservative strip_leading_track_number (paths.py): removes a clear track-number
prefix (zero-padded number, OR a number followed by a real separator+space) while
leaving titles that merely start with a number untouched — '7 Rings', '99 Luftballons',
'50 Ways to Leave Your Lover', '1-800-273-8255', '1979' all preserved. Never reduces
to empty/bare-number/punctuation.
Applied at:
- get_import_clean_title (context.py) — the universal resolver every import path funnels
through, so the DB title AND the re-written embedded tag come out clean.
- album_matching scorer — so '01 - Sun It Rises' scores against 'Sun It Rises' and the
file matches its real track (inheriting the clean canonical name).
27 targeted tests + 772 imports/matching green.
Picking the release a track is ALREADY in deleted the file: the re-import lands at
the same path, record_soulsync_library_entry skips the insert (row exists), so no
new row is created — then delete_replaced_track removed that very row AND unlinked
the file (the freshly-imported one). This was the 'assumption' I documented but
never enforced.
Bulletproof guard: the pipeline writes its landing path into context['_final_processed_path'];
_process_matches captures it onto the candidate, and _finalize_rematch_hint passes
those new_paths to delete_replaced_track. If the old file canonically equals where
the import landed, it's a NO-OP — the row and file are kept (that file IS the
re-imported track). Canonical compare folds symlinks/case/sep.
So same-release re-identify is now a harmless re-tag-in-place; only a genuine re-home
(different path) deletes the old. 114 auto-import + rematch tests green.
Two real bugs surfaced in testing:
1. Original file not deleted on replace: delete_replaced_track checked os.path.exists
on the RAW stored DB path (a Docker/media-server view), so it removed the row but
orphaned the file. Now takes a resolve_fn (wired to resolve_library_file_path in
the worker) and unlinks the RESOLVED real path.
2. No year / wrong album context: build_identification_from_hint set is_single=True,
routing re-identify through _match_tracks' singles fast-path — which never fetches
the chosen album, so the re-import got a bare stub (no release_date, total_tracks=1).
Added force_album_match so the matcher FETCHES the chosen release even for a lone
staged file → the track inherits the real album's year, in-album track number, and
art. Holds for single-type releases too (they have a year as well).
Normal single-import behavior unchanged (force_album_match absent → same path).
112 auto-import + rematch tests green.
The showpiece: a focused 'which release does this track belong to?' chooser.
Source tabs (default active), pre-seeded search, the same song surfaced across
single/EP/album with color-coded type badges, ISRC-ranked, replace-original
toggle (on by default). Glassy panel, blurred hero art, shimmer/spinner states,
hover-lift result cards — matched to the app's modal language.
Backend:
- core/imports/rematch_apply.py: pure staged_destination + build_reidentify_hint,
injectable stage_file_for_reidentify (COPIES the file, never moves — original
safe until re-import succeeds). 6 tests.
- POST /api/reidentify/apply (admin-only): resolve_hint_fields → stage file →
create_hint → nudge the worker. Replace deletes the old row only on success.
Frontend: modal markup (index.html), full stylesheet (style.css), and the
openReidentifyModal/search/select/confirm flow (library.js). Not yet reachable
from a button — Phase 5 wires it.
Search any configured source (tabs, default active) and surface the SAME song
across its collections (single/EP/album) so the user can pick which release a
track should be filed under.
- core/imports/rematch_search.py: pure normalize + injected client factory.
search_release_candidates() → lightweight display rows from typed search_tracks
(title/artist/release/type badge/year/count/art/isrc/track_id); resolve_hint_fields()
runs ONCE on the picked row via get_track_details to pull the album_id (+ isrc/
track#/disc) the hint needs. infer_release_type() handles Spotify's missing 'EP'
(multi-track 'single' → EP badge); filing is driven by real album_id, not the label.
- GET /api/reidentify/sources (tabs) + GET /api/reidentify/search (rows). Graceful
empty on dead source / blank query / client error — never raises.
14 tests. Inert until the modal (Phase 4) calls it.
When a staged single-file candidate carries a re-identify hint, the worker builds
the identification straight from the user-chosen release (album_id/source) and
skips the guessing tiers — so the ambiguity that mis-filed the track is gone. No
hint → byte-identical to before (the lookup returns (None, None), fail-safe on any
DB error). A hinted import auto-processes (explicit user choice), still gated on the
global auto_process pref.
After the re-import lands, _finalize_rematch_hint consumes the hint and (if replace
was chosen) deletes the old row + file via delete_replaced_track — deferred to
success so a failed import never loses the original. Safe by construction: unlink
only when no surviving row references the file, and the modal never offers the
track's current release so old path != new path.
All hint logic lives in auto_import_worker.py + the pure rematch_hints helpers —
pipeline.py / side_effects.py untouched. 18 tests; full auto-import suite green.
A single-use, user-designated 'which release does this track belong to' answer.
Written when the user picks a release in the Re-identify modal and the file is
staged; the import flow will read it at the top of matching and consume it.
- rematch_hints table (additive, IF NOT EXISTS + indexes) keyed on staged_path
with content_hash as a rename-proof fallback.
- core/imports/rematch_hints.py: pure DB seam over an injected cursor
(create/find/consume/list) + a cheap size+head+tail file fingerprint.
- exempt_dedup baked into the hint (a re-identify must bypass dedup-skip);
replace_track_id carried for deferred post-success cleanup.
Inert until wired (Phase 5) — nothing calls it yet. 9 seam tests.
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.
radoslav-orlov: add AAC as a download quality option. AAC is more efficient than
MP3, so it's useful for Soulseek/torrents (streaming sources pick their own
codec; Amazon — the AAC-heavy one — is down).
Additive by construction: every quality tier already defaults enabled=false and
the waterfall is built only from enabled tiers, so AAC ships OFF and the bucketer
routes a not-enabled AAC file to the 'other' bucket EXACTLY as today (where it was
silently dropped). Only a user who turns AAC on makes it a first-class tier,
ranked above MP3 / below FLAC (priority 1.5, min-kbps gate so junk AAC can't beat
a good MP3).
- music_database: aac tier (disabled) in the default profile + all 3 presets.
- soulseek_client: map .m4a -> 'aac' in both result parsers (was 'unknown' ->
dropped); add the 'aac' bucket + a gated branch + a fallback size limit.
- settings UI: an 'AAC' tier toggle (unchecked) between FLAC and MP3; save
defaults its priority to 1.5 so upgraded profiles rank it right on first save.
7 seam tests pinning the additive guarantee (aac absent/disabled -> dropped as
before; FLAC/MP3 selection unchanged; aac on -> selectable, below FLAC, above
MP3); 81 quality/soulseek tests pass, ruff clean. quality_upgrade left untouched
(its AAC handling is unchanged).
radoslav-orlov: with no Spotify auth, enrichment runs on the no-creds Spotify Free
source (prefer-free is on by default) and IS working — pending drains, the modal
shows RUNNING — but the dashboard header tooltip said 'Not Authenticated /
Connect Spotify in Settings'. Two causes:
- get_stats() only set using_free for the rate-limit / spent-budget bridges, not
the plain no-auth-default-free case. The loop already computes the right signal
(free_serving = _free_active(), True here) but it was a local var. Cache it on
self each iteration and report it as using_free (no auth API call in the 2s
status loop).
- The dashboard's Spotify updater checked notAuthenticated BEFORE bridgingFree, so
even with using_free it showed Not Authenticated. notAuthenticated now excludes
the bridging-free case; the LastFM/Genius/Tidal/Qobuz updaters (no free path)
are unchanged.
5 seam tests for get_stats free/auth reporting; 67 enrichment/free tests pass.
Swigs: 'No audio files found in /data/usenet/incomplete/….#2141' — SoulSync
imported a usenet album from NZBGet's intermediate working dir, which is emptied
after the move (files were in /data/soulseek/…). Two causes, both fixed to match
the already-correct SAB adapter:
- _parse_history mapped save_path=DestDir, but the authoritative final location
after a post-processing move is FinalDir. Prefer FinalDir, fall back to DestDir,
empty/whitespace -> None.
- _parse_group exposed the queue group's DestDir (the in-progress '….#NZBID' dir)
as save_path, so a PP_FINISHED group (which maps to 'completed') could finalize
on the incomplete folder before the move. A queue group now reports no save_path
-> finalisation always comes from the history entry (real FinalDir/DestDir),
bridged by the existing 120s completed-no-path window.
6 regression tests (FinalDir preferred, DestDir fallback, empty->None, queue/
PP_FINISHED never offer the incomplete path).
detect_album_info_web gains a last-resort step: when a track matched a SINGLE
with no usable album context, look up the parent ALBUM that contains it (via
get_artist_albums_for_source + get_artist_album_tracks) and promote to it, so it
groups with its album-mates and gets the album's cover instead of the single's.
GATED behind metadata_enhancement.single_to_album (default OFF) — it's a
per-import metadata lookup, so it's opt-in, matching the canonical-version
pattern. Fully fail-safe: flag off, no source, or any client error/miss -> None,
so the track stays exactly as matched (never worse than today). The promoted
album name is forced past get_import_clean_album (which otherwise pins the
single's name) so grouping + tags use the album. 4 glue seam tests added
(promote-when-enabled, disabled-by-default, no-match, client-raises); 462
import-suite tests pass.
When a track matches a SINGLE release it carries the single's name/id and the
canonical grouping files it apart from its album-mates -> mixed cover art
(Sokhi). This re-homes it onto the album that actually contains it.
The selection is a pure, CONSERVATIVE function and the lookup loop takes injected
fetchers, so both are unit-testable without a live client. It only re-homes a
track when a real 'album'-type release's tracklist contains that EXACT track
(qualifier-tolerant) — never promotes a genuine standalone single, never guesses
(a wrong promotion would mis-home a real single, the inverse bug). Fail-safe: any
miss/error -> None (track stays as matched). 13 seam tests. Wiring next.
Sokhi: songs in one album get mismatched cover art. Root cause is upstream of
the repair jobs (which correctly apply one cover per album_id): the standalone
import grouped albums by the album NAME hash (artist::album_name), so the SAME
release split into multiple album rows whenever the name string drifted, and the
cover-art/re-tag jobs then dressed each split row in its own art.
Foundation (new imports only; existing rows untouched): a pure, seam-testable
helper find_existing_soulsync_album_id() resolves the album row by precedence
name-hash id -> source RELEASE id -> (title, artist). When an import carries a
metadata-source album id, a differently-named import of the SAME release now
unifies into one row instead of splitting. Source-column lookup is allow-listed
(it's spliced into SQL) and guarded so a source without a dedicated album column
(Deezer) falls through to the name match instead of breaking the import.
Deliberate scope: this does NOT merge a track that genuinely matched a SINGLE
(a different release id) into its parent album — that needs single->album
resolution upstream and is the next step; this is the grouping substrate it will
feed. 10 seam tests (canonical unify, single-vs-album stays separate, precedence,
allowlist, server-source scope, missing-column fallthrough).
Sokhi: tracks occasionally land in Rockbox's 'untagged' bucket after a
'processing failed'. enhance_file_metadata saves the file with tags CLEARED up
front (so stale tags never linger), then runs the failure-prone external steps
(source-id embed, cover-art fetch). The core tags (album/artist/title/track from
the matched context) are written to the in-memory object BEFORE those steps, but
the on-disk file is still the cleared one until the final save.
The #764 fix made the error handler restore ART — but gated the re-save on there
being original art to restore. So a file with NO embedded art that hit a
mid-enrichment crash threw away its in-memory core tags and was left on disk as
the up-front clear saved it: untagged. Now the handler always persists the
in-memory tags (restoring art when present), so a crash leaves a correctly-tagged
file (album tag intact -> right bucket) instead of an empty one. Regression test
drives the real enhance_file_metadata against an art-less FLAC.
Sokhi (again): downloading the base 'Mushoku Tensei S2 Original Soundtrack' embedded
the cour-2 '…サウンドトラック2' cover. numeric_tokens_differ stripped titles to
[a-z0-9], turning CJK into spaces — so the trailing '2' collapsed to a bare '2'
that '第2期' (season 2) already supplied on BOTH sides, leaving the digit sets equal
and the guard blind. Tokenise on \W (Unicode word-aware) instead, so a digit stays
attached to its word ('サウンドトラック2' is its own digit-bearing token). Latin
behaviour is byte-identical (Vol.4 vs Vol.4.5 etc.). Shared guard, so the art picker
AND the MusicBrainz->CAA path are both fixed. Regression tests added.
Single tracks (esp. Deezer-sourced) imported as "01 - Title" regardless
of their real album position — e.g. Fly Away (track 2 of Greatest Hits)
landed as 01, littering album folders with duplicate "01" files.
Root cause: a Deezer single track is matched via /search/track, which
omits track_position, so the context never carried the real number; then
service.py + context.py fabricated a confident track_number=1 from that
gap. Because the resolver puts that first, the fake 1 beat the source.
It is source-agnostic (slskd-with-Deezer-metadata hits it too) — albums
work because /album/<id>/tracks DOES include positions.
Fix (at the shared import funnel, strictly additive):
- track_number.py: new read_embedded_track_number() (mutagen, local, no
network) + an optional embedded_track_number arg on resolve_track_number.
The downloaded file already carries the source-written position (deemix
wrote it); consult it LAST — only when metadata AND the "NN - Title"
filename both come up empty — so it can only fill the gap that would
otherwise hit the default-1 floor. Never overrides a value the pre-fix
resolver produced (no regression for correctly-named/mistagged files).
- pipeline.py: read the file tag at the resolve step and pass it in.
- De-poison: service.py:217 + context.py default to 0 (the existing
"unknown" sentinel, like total_tracks), NOT 1 — so the fake 1 no longer
blocks recovery. Frontend already treats falsy track_number as unknown
(omits it), so this also drops the bogus "1." in the UI.
13 new resolver tests incl. the no-regression precedence guards; full
imports + wishlist suites green (583), no behavior change for albums.
A user who removes a wishlist track, or cancels an in-flight wishlist
download, would have it re-added on the next auto cycle (watchlist scan,
failed-track capture, or the cancel handler's own re-add), so the same
release downloaded -> failed/cancelled -> re-queued forever.
Adds a TTL'd skip-gate (30 days), softer than the blocklist: it expires
so the track is reconsidered later, and never blocks a manual
force-download — only the automatic re-queue.
- core/wishlist/ignore.py: pure TTL/normalization/display logic + a
best-effort orchestrator (no DB handle, caller passes now).
- database/music_database.py: migration-safe wishlist_ignore table +
add/check/remove/list(+purge)/clear methods, and the gate in
add_to_wishlist beside the blocklist guard. Fail-open throughout — an
ignore error can never block a legitimate add; a manual add bypasses
the gate AND clears the ignore.
- routes.py: user remove (single/album/batch) records an ignore. Hooked
at the route layer, NOT the DB remove, so success-cleanup never
ignores (regression-tested).
- web_server.py: cancel now ignores + removes from the wishlist instead
of re-adding for endless retry; three /api/wishlist/ignore-list*
endpoints.
- downloads.js: 'Ignored' modal (view / un-ignore / clear all).
- 13 tests: pure logic, DB seam, gate (block/bypass/fail-open),
route wiring, and the success-cleanup-does-not-ignore regression.
Multiple failed source attempts at one song each land in quarantine as
separate entries. Group them by the *intended* target (sidecar context
track_info isrc -> id -> uri, falling back to normalized artist|title for
legacy thin sidecars) — an exact relationship across siblings, since the
bad files' own tags differ but the target track is constant.
- core: quarantine_group_key() + find_quarantine_siblings() seams; list
entries now carry group_key.
- approve endpoint: remove_siblings flag auto-deletes the other attempts
once one is accepted (captured BEFORE approve restores the file out of
quarantine, or the id lookup would resolve nothing). Scoped to the
quarantine manager; download-modal chooser + version-mismatch fallback
pass no flag and are unaffected.
- UI: multi-member groups render as a collapsible parent row (album art +
'N alternatives'); singletons unchanged. Toast reports removed count.
- 11 tests incl. ordering regression for capture-before-approve.
The Download Discography modal exposed only Albums/EPs/Singles, its EPs toggle did
nothing, and Live/Compilations/Featured were missing — so you couldn't fine-filter
a bulk download the way Artist Detail lets you browse.
Root cause: the modal's endpoint (/api/artist/<id>/discography) used the base
get_artist_discography, which lumps EPs into singles, and the modal only read
{albums, singles} — so the EPs bucket was always empty (dead toggle). It also had
no content-type (Live/Compilation/Featured) classification at all.
- Backend: the endpoint now uses get_artist_detail_discography — the SAME split
Artist Detail uses — and returns a separate `eps` list.
- Frontend: read `eps`; tag each card with data-is-live/compilation/featured via a
new shared _classifyReleaseContent() (also adopted by the Artist Detail cards so
the two can't drift); add Live/Compilations/Featured filter buttons; combined
category+content filtering. The download payload is built from VISIBLE checked
cards, so every toggle now actually changes what downloads.
- Regression test: get_artist_detail_discography splits an EP into the eps bucket.
Reported by @Lysticity: opening Settings reset the whole config to defaults. The
chain: GET /api/settings 500s (their env: ConfigManager missing redacted_config)
-> loadSettingsData() called response.json() WITHOUT checking response.ok, so the
error body {"error": ...} was treated as settings -> every field populated as
`settings.x?.y || ''` blanked to defaults -> autosave then wrote those defaults
over the real config.
Fix (settings.js): bail BEFORE touching any field when the response isn't ok / is
an error body, set window._settingsLoadFailed, and guard BOTH save paths
(debouncedAutoSaveSettings + saveSettings) on it. The flag clears on the next
successful load. So any load failure (500, lock, network) now leaves the saved
config untouched instead of wiping it.
The redacted_config method exists in all 2.7.x source + on dev (their 500 looks
like a stale/mismatched build), but the UI must not destroy config on ANY failed
load. Regression test pins redacted_config stays a callable method on the class
(its removal is exactly what 500s the endpoint).
The Favorites collection walker (_iter_collection_resource_ids) broke on ANY
non-200 — including a transient 429. So a rate-limit mid-pagination silently
truncated the collection: the log shows `status=429` then `Retrieved 98/100`,
and the mirror saved 98 of a 524-track favorites list. The auto-sync cycle only
"worked" because it dodged the 429. The regular-playlist paginator already
retries 429; the collection walker didn't.
Fix: retry the same cursor page with backoff (5/10/15/20s, 4 attempts) on 429,
mirroring the playlist paginator; 401/403 still bail (+ reconnect flag), other
non-200 still break. Regression tests: 429 mid-walk completes the full chain;
exhausted retries return partial without hanging; 429 doesn't set reconnect.
Adds a dedicated `get_library_history_unverified()` DB query that fetches
every library_history row with verification_status IN ('unverified',
'force_imported') with no recency cap. This is loaded unconditionally in
`build_unified_downloads_response` — not gated on `len(items) < limit` —
so historical unverified entries are never buried by a busy batch filling
the 200-row general limit, and entries from weeks/months ago aren't lost
in the 50-row recency-ordered history tail. Adds idx_lh_verification_status
for query performance and two regression tests.

Answers "does import respect quality?": yes — the pipeline already runs the
quality gate (check_quality_target) BEFORE AcoustID and quarantines files that
don't meet the profile (unless fallback/downsample is on). This adds an explicit
user switch over that behaviour.
- New config import.quality_filter_enabled (default True). When False,
check_quality_target returns None early so EVERY file imports regardless of
quality; the file is still probed and the library Quality Upgrade Scanner
still flags below-profile tracks. Default preserves current behaviour.
- Settings → Library: the Import Settings group is now a collapsible tile
(same pattern as Post-Processing) and gains the "Only import tracks that meet
your quality profile" toggle at the top, alongside replace-lower-quality and
folder-artist-override.
- settings.js populate/collect the new key; config schema default added.
- Tests: key-aware config stub (a blanket-False mock would wrongly disable the
filter) + a new test pinning toggle-OFF = accept below-target file.

ROOT CAUSE of the quality scanner's "18/18 could not be probed". The shared
resolver (core/library/path_resolver.py) suffix-walked starting at index 1,
which is correct for absolute media-server paths (/music/Artist/... — index 0
is the empty leading segment) but WRONG for SoulSync's own library, which
stores RELATIVE paths like "Asketa/Another Side/track.flac". Index 0 there is
the artist folder; dropping it meant the resolver joined base/Another Side/...
(no artist) and nothing ever matched — so every library track came back
unresolved and the probe opened a relative path that didn't exist from CWD.
Start the suffix walk at index 0 so the FULL relative path is tried first.
Safe for absolute paths (i=0 yields base//Artist/... which harmlessly misses
and falls through to i=1) and Windows drive parts (E: fails on POSIX, falls
through). Other tools (orphan/fake-lossless detectors) were unaffected because
they os.walk the transfer folder directly and never used this resolver.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
1) _resolve_library_file_path now tries the FULL relative path (index 0)
against each base dir, not just suffixes. The library scanner stores clean
"Artist/Album/Track.flac" paths; skipping index 0 dropped the artist folder
so the file never resolved — every quality-scanner probe failed ("20/20
could not be probed"). Now they resolve under the transfer/library dir.
2) Quality gate moved BEFORE the AcoustID check in post_process_matched_download.
- A wrong-quality file is rejected without paying for an AcoustID fingerprint.
- context['_audio_quality'] is set before either gate quarantines, so the
real quality is recorded on the sidecar for EVERY quarantine trigger —
it's known when reviewing/approving any quarantined file.
- force_import still never fires on a quality mismatch (only AcoustID).
normalize_import_context mutates in place, so the moved block keeps its
context fields. New test pins the order + that AcoustID isn't run on a
quality reject.

Diagnostics revealed the real cause: the tracks table stores file_path
RELATIVE to the library root (e.g. "Asketa/Another Side/01-01 - Another
Side.flac"), so probing the raw path failed for the entire library — every
track came back unprobeable and was left unflagged ("20/20 could not be
probed").
The scanner now resolves each path via _resolve_library_file_path (checks
transfer/download/library dirs, same helper the rest of the app uses) before
probing, falling back to docker_resolve_path. Injected via deps for testability.

A task stuck in 'post_processing' past the cutoff was force-marked 'completed'
("assume it worked"). In a large batch, post-processing (AcoustID + quality +
import) is serialized and backs up, so tasks sit in post_processing while merely
QUEUED — then got falsely completed, showing as downloaded with no file on disk
(/Transfer empty).
Now: the cutoff is 30 min (was 5) so legit backlog isn't cut off, and when it
does fire the task is only completed if it actually produced a file
(final_file_path exists on disk) — otherwise marked failed (honest + retryable).
Applied at both stuck-detection sites (check_batch_completion + _v2).

The library quality scanner judged quality by FILE EXTENSION only
(get_quality_tier_from_extension) and read the legacy v2 `qualities` dict —
so every FLAC was "lossless tier 1" regardless of bit depth / sample rate. It
could never flag a 16-bit FLAC as upgradeable under a 24-bit profile, and it
ignored the v3 ranked_targets entirely. Completely inconsistent with the
download guard.
Now both share one core:
- selection.targets_from_profile(profile) — single profile→targets conversion
(v2→v3 migration), reused by load_profile_targets.
- selection.quality_meets_profile(aq, targets) — strict: meets iff the real
measured quality satisfies a ranked target (fallback ignored — it's a
download concession, not a definition of "good enough").
- guards.check_quality_target refactored to use both.
- quality_scanner probes real quality (probe_audio_quality) and checks against
the v3 targets via quality_meets_profile. Extension tier kept only as a
fallback label when a file can't be probed.
Result: the scan flags exactly what the download gate would reject — 16-bit
when you want 24-bit, wrong sample rate, MP3 when you want FLAC.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A file quarantined for QUALITY (e.g. MP3-VBR rejected by a FLAC-only profile)
showed up in BOTH the Completed and Quarantine tabs. Cause: the verification
wrapper (post_process_matched_download_with_verification) handled the
_acoustid_quarantined / _integrity_failure_msg / _race_guard_failed markers but
NOT the quality marker _bitdepth_rejected (nor _silence_rejected). A quality
quarantine leaves no _final_processed_path, so the wrapper hit the
"no final path — assuming success" branch and marked the task Completed.
Unlike acoustid/integrity (retry driven by the wrapper), the inner pipeline
already owns the quality/audio-guard outcome — it quarantines then re-queues the
next-best candidate or marks the task failed. So the wrapper now just returns
when it sees _bitdepth_rejected/_silence_rejected, without marking completed
(which clobbered both the quarantine state AND any successful retry).

The audiophile preset (fallback_enabled=False) still shipped a "FLAC 16-bit"
target in its ladder, so 16-bit FLAC matched and imported even though the name
implies hi-res-only. Split the ladder: audiophile now uses a strict 24-bit FLAC
list; balanced keeps 24-bit + 16-bit + MP3. Gives users a one-click strict
"24-bit only" profile that actually rejects 16-bit/lossy.
Not a matches_target bug — that correctly rejects 16-bit vs a 24-bit target;
the leak was the preset's target LIST including 16-bit (+ fallback accepting
off-list lossy like MP3-128).

Root cause of "completed/failed/unverified don't show during a running
batch, only after it ends" (F5 didn't help): build_unified_downloads_response
sorted live tasks active-first (downloading/searching/queued = priority 0-3,
completed/failed = 4-7) then truncated the whole array at items[:limit] (300).
During a busy batch the active+queued tasks filled the limit and pushed every
terminal task off the end, so /api/downloads/all never returned them — the
Completed/Failed/Unverified tabs filter client-side and had nothing to show.
Fix: `limit` now bounds only the persistent-history tail. Live in-memory
tasks are always returned in full — they're already bounded by the 5-min
cleanup automation, and array order is presentation-only since the page
filters per tab client-side.
Verified with a repro (320 queued + 1 completed + 1 failed → terminal rows
were absent at limit=300; now present).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Three fixes from on-device testing of best-quality mode:
1. clear_completed_local no longer prunes terminal tasks that belong to a
STILL-ACTIVE batch (one with non-terminal work remaining). The 5-min
"Clean Completed Downloads" automation was yanking completed/failed/
unverified rows out of download_tasks mid-run — and failed/cancelled
aren't in library_history — so they only reappeared after the batch
ended. Now the whole active batch stays intact until it finishes.
2. search_all_sources runs every source CONCURRENTLY (asyncio.gather)
instead of sequentially, so the pool waits only for the slowest source
(e.g. usenet/Prowlarr) in parallel rather than summing all latencies.
3. The pool log now reports per-source contribution counts
(e.g. "usenet=0, hifi=11, soulseek=1") instead of just echoing the
chain, so a release-level source that returns nothing for a track-title
query is visible rather than appearing to have been searched.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Adds an opt-in search strategy toggle in the Quality Profile:
- priority (default): unchanged — first source in the hybrid chain that
meets a quality target wins.
- best_quality: pool candidates from EVERY source per query and download
them best→worst by actual audio quality; source order only breaks ties.
Implementation reuses existing plumbing so the retry system is untouched:
- engine.search_all_sources pools raw tracks across all configured,
non-exhausted sources (no first-source short-circuit).
- candidates.order_candidates: new quality_first sort path — profile
quality rank dominates, confidence/peer signals break ties. Priority
path is byte-for-byte unchanged (regression-locked by tests).
- task_worker passes quality_first + targets through; skips the redundant
hybrid-fallback block in best-quality mode (pool already covered it).
- Per-source retry budgets unchanged: a source that spends its budget is
added to exhausted_download_sources and thus dropped from the whole
pool. Independent of post_processing.retry_exhaustive.
- Query generator NOT touched.
Also clarifies the "Allow fallback" setting wording: it accepts OFF-LIST
quality as a last resort (not "walk down my list"), and notes that
lossy_copy.downsample_hires also bypasses the quality gate — the cause of
16-bit/MP3 files slipping through a 24-bit-only profile.

Some Monochrome instances only have 30-second Tidal DOWNLOAD access: the HLS
variant playlist for a 220s track comes back as ~30s of segments + ENDLIST
(verified live on us-west.monochrome.tf — lossless=30s, hires=403). The client
downloaded that 30s file, which then got quarantined by the new audio guard.
Detect it at manifest time: sum the playlist's EXTINF runtime and compare to
the track's real duration (get_track_info). When the playlist is < 85% of the
track, decline the manifest and rotate the instance, so the download falls
through to a real source (Soulseek/Qobuz/Tidal/Deezer) instead of fetching a
preview. Best-effort — unknown duration disables the check (the post-download
audio guard remains the safety net).

The actual HiFi/Monochrome bug isn't silence padding — it's a TRUNCATED file:
the container claims the full length (e.g. 3:08) but only ~30s of audio
decodes. silencedetect finds nothing (there's no silent audio, just missing
audio) and ffmpeg's time= even reports 0 with no error, so the duration and
quality guards all pass.
Detect it by decoding and comparing the real audio length (astats sample
count / sample rate) against the container duration: reject when the real
audio covers < 85% of the claimed length. detect_broken_audio() runs this
truncation check first, then the silence-ratio check. Wire it into the guard
that runs at the integrity/length verification point.
Verified on the real file: 'only ~30s actually decodes of a 188s file (16%)';
a normal 180s file is not flagged.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
HiFi/Monochrome HLS assembly can produce a file with the correct container
duration but only ~30s of real audio + silence padding — the duration and
quality guards both pass, so nothing caught it until you listened. Add
core/imports/silence.py: ffmpeg silencedetect over the audio, reject when the
silent fraction exceeds 50%. Wire it into the post-download pipeline with the
same quarantine + next-candidate retry pattern as the quality guard
(trigger='silence'), and surface it via import_rejection_reason. Fails open
when ffmpeg/mutagen are unavailable so tooling problems never quarantine a
legit file.
Also mark 'quality filter' and 'silence guard' failures as recoverable
quarantine rows in the downloads UI (were shown as plain failures).
Verified end-to-end: a 30s-tone + 180s-silence FLAC is flagged '86% silence
(only ~30s audible of 210s)'; a 210s tone passes. 7 parser unit tests.

Remove the per-source download-quality dropdowns (Tidal/HiFi/Qobuz/Deezer/
Amazon) — with the global ranked-targets system they were redundant and
conflicting. Add quality_tier_for_source(): picks the LOWEST source tier
that satisfies the user's top target (respects the quality ceiling, saves
bandwidth) or the source's max as best effort. Every source's search +
download + retry path now derives its tier from the global profile instead
of config_manager.get('<source>_download.quality').
Settings keep the per-source allow_fallback toggles; the quality selects are
replaced with a note pointing at Quality Profile.
