New toggle under Post-Download Conversion: automatically converts 24-bit
or high sample rate FLAC files to 16-bit/44.1kHz after download, replacing
the original. Uses ffmpeg with temp file + verify + atomic swap for safety.
Runs before lossy copy so MP3s are made from the downsampled version.
Also prevents bit depth strict mode from rejecting files that will be
downsampled anyway.
The fallback download path (playlists, discovery, sync) built spotify_album_context
from track_info.album which can be a plain string (no release_date) for discovery
playlists or missing metadata. Now backfills release_date, album_type, total_tracks,
and album name from the existing get_track_details API call — zero extra API calls.
Also adds total_discs passthrough for fallback path parity.
Mirrored playlist discovery results are cached per-track in extra_data with
the provider that discovered them. When the user switches metadata source
(e.g. Spotify → Deezer), prepare-discovery was serving stale data from the
old provider — wrong IDs, empty albums, no cover art. Now it compares the
cached provider against the current active source and invalidates mismatched
entries, forcing a clean re-discovery with the correct provider.
Root cause: discovery searches return (Track, raw_data, confidence) but
raw_data can be None (Strategy 4 extended search) or have mismatched index.
When raw_data is None, album_obj becomes {} — an empty dict that passes
normalization unchanged, so album name is never populated.
Fix: after extracting album_obj from raw_data, fall back to track_obj.album
(always populated from the SpotifyTrack dataclass) when album_obj has no
name. Applied to all 3 discovery paths (Deezer, Tidal, Spotify Public).
Also handle both string and dict album formats in wishlist UI rendering.
The normalization loop was modifying dict objects shared with the
SpotifyTrack construction loop. SpotifyTrack.artists expects List[str]
but normalization converted to [{'name': ...}] dicts. Use dict(t) copy
so original tracks_json is untouched.
- Bump confirm dialog z-index to 200000 (both #confirm-modal-overlay and
.confirmation-modal-overlay) so they always appear above all other modals
- Normalize track data in _run_sync_task before storing in original_tracks_map:
album as dict {'name': ...} and artists as [{'name': ...}] — fixes all
source converters (Deezer, YouTube, Tidal, Spotify Public, ListenBrainz,
Beatport) whose fallback paths stored plain strings, causing the wishlist
UI to show "Unknown Album" for every synced track
- Switch user automations to 2-column grid layout (matches system automations)
- Add duplicate button on non-system cards with POST /api/automations/<id>/duplicate
- Add search/filter bar (text search + trigger/action dropdowns) shown at 6+ automations
- Add Inspiration section with 8 starter templates that pre-fill the builder
- Add folder-style automation grouping with group_name DB column, dropdown
popover for assignment, collapsible group sections, and builder group input
Sync now compares current discovered track count against last sync's
matched count. Skips when all discovered tracks are already on the server.
Re-syncs when wishlist may have downloaded missing tracks since last sync.
Saves matched/discovered/total counts to sync status after each run.
Enables putting sync on a schedule without wasting resources — it skips
instantly when nothing changed and only runs when there's something new.
- Set album_name from embed entity for album-type Spotify public scrapes
- Log warning and show skip status when Tidal not authenticated during refresh
- Only emit discovery_completed event when new tracks were actually discovered,
preventing unnecessary sync triggers when retrying the same failed matches
- Exclude file and beatport playlists from refresh (no external API)
- Hide Spotify library playlists from refresh dropdown when not authenticated
- Add spotify_public refresh handler using public embed scraper via stored URL
- Fix YouTube refresh to use stored description URL instead of hash-based source_id
- API returns source and spotify auth status for frontend filtering
YouTube URL hash used Python's hash() which is randomized per process restart,
causing pill re-clicks to create duplicates instead of upserts. Replaced with
deterministic hashlib.md5 of canonical URL. Includes auto-migration to deduplicate
existing entries and update their source_playlist_id.
Also adds mirrored playlist refresh support for Spotify (public embed scraper
fallback when not authenticated) and Deezer playlists.
- Query/update watchlist artists by deezer_artist_id in config endpoint
- Return deezer_artist_id in config response and recent albums response
- Add Deezer provider badge (purple) to linked provider section
- Detect Deezer vs iTunes for provider linking using fallback source setting
- Show "X fans" instead of "Pop: 0" for Deezer artist search results
- Include followers count in match/search artist response
- Add deezer_artist_id matching to library enrichment and recent releases queries
- personalized_playlists._get_active_source() now returns 'deezer' when
configured instead of always falling back to 'itunes'
- Add deezer_track_id to _build_track_dict() for discovery pool tracks
- Include album_deezer_id and artist_deezer_id in get_discovery_recent_albums()
response — fixes "No deezer album ID available" error when clicking cards
- Skip Spotify library section entirely when Spotify is not authenticated
Per-job and per-status filtering — respects active toolbar filters so
users can clear e.g. only track number findings or only dismissed items.
Confirmation uses the app's styled modal instead of browser confirm().
Shows which metadata sources each artist is matched to with small
colored badges on the card. Also adds deezer_artist_id to the
watchlist API response and fixes the data-artist-id fallback chain
to include Deezer-only artists.
Users can now choose between iTunes/Apple Music and Deezer as their free
metadata source in Settings. Spotify always takes priority when authenticated;
the fallback handles all lookups when it's not.
Core changes:
- DeezerClient: full metadata interface (search, albums, artists, tracks)
matching iTunesClient's API surface with identical dataclass return types
- SpotifyClient: configurable _fallback property switches between iTunes/Deezer
based on live config reads (no restart needed)
- MetadataService, web_server, watchlist_scanner, api/search, repair_worker,
seasonal_discovery, personalized_playlists: all direct iTunesClient imports
replaced with fallback-aware helpers
Database:
- deezer_artist_id on watchlist_artists and similar_artists tables
- deezer_track_id/album_id/artist_id on discovery_pool and discovery_cache
- Full CRUD for Deezer IDs: add, read, update, backfill, metadata enrichment
- Watchlist duplicate detection by artist name prevents re-adding across sources
- SimilarArtist dataclass and all query/insert methods handle Deezer columns
Bug fixes found during review:
- Similar artist backfill was writing Deezer IDs into iTunes columns
- Discover hero was storing resolved Deezer IDs in wrong column
- Status cache not invalidating on settings save (source name lag)
- Watchlist add allowing duplicates when switching metadata sources
Two issues fixed:
1. Download Missing modal fallback path hardcoded release_date: '' and
discarded album metadata that discovery had already found on track_info.
Now extracts release_date, image_url, album_type, and total_tracks from
the enriched track data, fixing empty $year for all non-album-page
downloads (playlist syncs, wishlist, Tidal/streaming sources).
2. _sanitize_context_values turned empty strings into '_' via
_sanitize_filename, so template cleanup regex couldn't match empty
brackets like (). Now skips sanitization for empty strings so the
existing () [] {} cleanup works correctly.
New library_history table logs every completed download and every new
track imported from Plex/Jellyfin/Navidrome. A "History" button next
to "Recent Activity" on the dashboard opens a modal with Downloads and
Server Imports tabs, album art thumbnails, quality/source badges, and
pagination.
New download mode alongside Soulseek, YouTube, Tidal, and Qobuz. Uses
community-run REST API instances (no auth required) that serve Tidal CDN
FLAC streams. Features quality fallback chain (hires→lossless→high→low),
automatic instance rotation on failure, and full hybrid mode support.
Also fixes 6 missing streaming source checks for HiFi and Qobuz in the
frontend that were blocking playback with "format not supported" errors.
Scrapes Spotify's embed endpoint to extract track data from any public
playlist or album URL. Full discovery flow with Deezer parity: parse →
card → discovery modal → live progress → sync → download missing.
- New scraper: core/spotify_public_scraper.py (embed endpoint parsing)
- 12 API endpoints mirroring Deezer's discovery/sync/download flow
- WebSocket live discovery updates via spotify_public_discovery_states
- Green-branded tab, cards, and input styling (#1DB954)
- Album vs playlist detection with distinct card icons (💿/🎵)
- Download persistence: card click reopens download modal after close
- Card phase reset on cancel/completion (closeDownloadMissingModal)
- Backend download linking for spotify_public_ and deezer_ prefixes
- Completion handlers (V2 + no-missing-tracks) for both platforms
- Source URLs stored on mirrored playlists for future auto-refresh
Southern hemisphere users now see correct seasons (e.g. March = Autumn,
December = Summer). Holidays (Halloween, Christmas, Valentine's) stay
calendar-fixed regardless of hemisphere.
- Hemisphere dropdown in Discovery Pool Settings
- GET/POST /api/discovery/hemisphere endpoints
- Season detection offsets months by 6 for southern hemisphere
- Stored in metadata table, defaults to northern
- All 9 repair jobs now emit report_progress() for real-time card updates
(phase, log lines, per-item activity) via WebSocket repair:progress events
- Enrich finding details with album/artist thumb URLs across all repair jobs
(dead_file, duplicate, metadata_gap, album_completeness, missing_cover_art,
acoustid_scanner, track_number_repair, fake_lossless, orphan_file)
- Track number repair: return match_score from fuzzy matching, add suffix-based
DB lookup for album/artist art (handles cross-environment path mismatches)
- Fix Plex/Jellyfin relative thumb URLs in findings endpoint via fix_artist_image_url
- Labeled media cards in finding detail panels (album title + artist name under images)
- Dashboard tooltip shows current job name + per-job progress instead of stale stats
