Integrates play history data into the discovery algorithm:
- Listening profile: _get_listening_profile() builds user's top artists,
genres, play counts, and listening velocity from the last 30 days
- Artist genre cache: pre-built from local DB for O(1) genre lookups
- Release Radar: +10 genre affinity, +15 artist familiarity, -10 overplay
penalty. Weights rebalanced to 45% recency + 25% popularity + bonuses
- Discovery Weekly: serendipity scoring within tiers — boosts unheard
artists in preferred genres, penalizes overplayed artists
- Recent Albums: adaptive time window (21-60 days) based on listening
velocity — heavy listeners get fresher content, casual listeners more
- New "Because You Listen To" sections: personalized carousels based on
user's top 3 played artists via similar artists + genre fallback
- New endpoint: /api/discover/because-you-listen-to with artist images
- Frontend: BYLT sections with artist photo headers on discover page
- All changes gracefully fall back when no listening data exists
Full stats dashboard that polls Plex/Jellyfin/Navidrome for play
history and presents it with Chart.js visualizations:
Backend:
- ListeningStatsWorker polls active server every 30 min
- listening_history DB table with dedup, play_count/last_played on tracks
- get_play_history() and get_track_play_counts() for all 3 servers
- Pre-computed cache for all time ranges (7d/30d/12m/all) rebuilt each sync
- Single cached endpoint serves all stats data instantly
- Stats query methods: top artists/albums/tracks, timeline, genres, health
Frontend:
- New Stats nav page with glassmorphic container matching dashboard style
- Overview cards (plays, time, artists, albums, tracks) with accent hover
- Listening timeline bar chart (Chart.js)
- Genre breakdown doughnut chart with legend
- Top artists visual bubbles with profile pictures + ranked list
- Top albums and tracks ranked lists with album art
- Library health: format breakdown bar, unplayed count, enrichment coverage
- Recently played timeline with relative timestamps
- Time range pills with instant switching via cache
- Sync Now button with spinner, last synced timestamp
- Clickable artist names navigate to library artist detail
- Last.fm global listeners shown alongside personal play counts
- SoulID badges on matched artists
- Empty state when no data synced yet
- Mobile responsive layout
DB migrations: listening_history table, play_count/last_played columns,
all with idempotent CREATE IF NOT EXISTS / PRAGMA checks.
Opus ffmpeg command now uses -map 0:a to extract only the audio stream,
matching the user's working command and preventing picture stream
interference with the encoder. After conversion, cover art is embedded
from the source FLAC using Mutagen: Opus gets METADATA_BLOCK_PICTURE
(base64-encoded per OGG spec), AAC gets MP4Cover. Applied to both
the post-download lossy copy and the repair job fix handler.
- Add get_artist_top_tracks to Last.fm client (up to 100 tracks)
- Include lastfm_listeners, lastfm_playcount, lastfm_tags, lastfm_bio,
and soul_id in artist detail API response
- New endpoint: /api/artist/<id>/lastfm-top-tracks for lazy loading
- Hero layout: image (160px) | center (name, badges, genres, bio,
listener/play stats, progress bars) | right card (scrollable top
100 tracks from Last.fm)
- Badges 36px with hover lift, bio in subtle card with Read More
toggle, Last.fm tags merged with existing genres
- Numbers formatted: 1234567 → 1.2M
- Graceful degradation: sections hidden when Last.fm data unavailable
Lossy copy now supports MP3, Opus, and AAC (M4A) codecs with a
configurable dropdown in settings. Each codec uses the appropriate
ffmpeg encoder (libmp3lame/libopus/aac) and Mutagen tag writer
(ID3/Vorbis/MP4). Quality tag, filename substitution, and Blasphemy
Mode file cleanup all work per-codec. Backward compatible — existing
configs default to MP3.
get_current_profile_id() uses Flask's g object which doesn't exist
in background threads. Now profile_id is captured at request time
and passed as a parameter to _run_sync_task. All 8 call sites
updated. Automation path defaults to profile_id=1.
Orphan detector: add normalized tag matching that strips parentheticals
and brackets (feat. X, [FLAC 16bit], etc.) and tries first-artist-only
for comma-separated artists. Prevents false orphan flags for tracks
like "The Mountain (feat. Dennis Hopper...)" that exist in DB as
"The Mountain". All lookups remain O(1) set operations.
Orphan fix: replace auto-delete with user choice prompt. Single Fix
and Fix All both show modal asking "Move to Staging" or "Delete".
Move to Staging relocates file to import staging folder for proper
re-import with metadata matching. Fix action flows through API
endpoint → repair_worker.fix_finding → _fix_orphan_file handler.
Staging path uses docker_resolve_path for container compatibility.
SoulID worker generates deterministic soul IDs for all library entities:
- Artists: hash(name + debut_year) — searches iTunes + Deezer APIs,
verifies correct artist by matching discography against local DB
albums via MusicMatchingEngine, pools years from both sources and
picks the earliest. Falls back to hash(name) if no match found.
- Albums: hash(artist + album)
- Tracks: song ID hash(artist + track) + album ID hash(artist + album + track)
Dashboard button with trans2.png logo, rainbow spinner, hover tooltip.
Worker orb with rainbow effect. SoulSync badge on library artist cards.
DB migration adds soul_id columns with indexes to artists/albums/tracks.
Migration version flag auto-resets artist soul IDs when algorithm changes.
1. Fix filename parser pattern order — "01 - Title" now matched
before "Artist - Title", preventing track numbers being treated
as artist names (e.g., "08" no longer becomes the artist)
2. Tag priority over filename parsing — shared _read_staging_file_metadata()
helper reads title, artist, albumartist, album, track_number, disc_number
from Mutagen tags. Only falls back to filename parsing when BOTH title
AND artist tags are empty. Applied to all 3 staging scan sites.
3. Improved match scoring — rebalanced from title(0.5)+tracknum(0.5) to
title(0.45)+artist(0.15)+tracknum(0.30)+album_bonus(0.10). Files
whose album tag matches the selected album get boosted.
4. Auto-group detection — new /api/import/staging/groups endpoint groups
staging files by album+artist tags. Frontend shows "Auto-Detected
Albums" section with one-click search. Match endpoint accepts
optional file_paths filter to scope matching to a specific group.
- Use correct server request types: 'tracks', 'albums', 'artists',
'artist.albums', 'album.tracks' (were singular, caused timeouts)
- Normalize artists to strings (server may send dicts)
- Use native plugin IDs (iTunes/Spotify) instead of soul_id for
album/artist/track IDs so downstream endpoints can resolve them
- Carry soul_id and plugin_id in external_urls for routing
- Pass plugin param from frontend to server for correct client routing
(iTunes vs Deezer vs Spotify) with isdigit() fallback
- Route source=hydrabase to iTunes client for artist images
- Include external_urls in enhanced search API response
- Reduce WebSocket timeout from 15s to 8s
- Remove stale hydrabase.enabled check, use is_connected() directly
- Add hydrabase to frontend alternate source fetch list
- Normalize Hydrabase artists to strings (server may send dicts),
fixing silent crashes that prevented albums/tracks from appearing
Post-processing now extracts release year from MusicBrainz, Deezer,
Tidal, Qobuz, and Spotify context (first source wins). Writes
ORIGINALDATE and DATE tags to file, and backfills the album year
in the DB if currently missing. Fixes Library Reorganize showing
blank years for Tidal-only downloads.
Also raises Library Reorganize API year lookup cap from 50 to 200.
- Add debouncedAutoSaveSettings() to moveHybridSource and toggleHybridSource
- Skip unconfigured sources at search time with is_configured() check
- Add get_source_status() to orchestrator, include in settings API response
- Auto-disable unconfigured sources in UI on settings load
Album pre-flight now tries 3 query variations instead of one:
full artist+album, cleaned artist+album (no feat./parentheticals),
and album-only. Stops at first success. Fixes cases where a banned
keyword in the artist name caused zero results, falling back to
slower track-by-track search unnecessarily.
Post-processing: Extract 7 inline source lookup blocks into standalone
_pp_lookup_* functions called in configurable order via
metadata_enhancement.post_process_order config. Default order matches
original hardcoded sequence — zero behavioral change.
Hydrabase: Fix connected Hydrabase incorrectly becoming primary source.
_is_hydrabase_active() now only returns True in dev_mode (legacy).
Auto-connect no longer forces dev_mode. Hydrabase as fallback works
through normal _get_metadata_fallback_client path like iTunes/Deezer.
Settings button min-width fix.
- Remove redundant enable checkbox — fallback dropdown is the enable
- Hydrabase option only appears in dropdown when connected
- Connect/disconnect dynamically adds/removes dropdown option
- _is_hydrabase_active checks fallback_source == hydrabase (not config toggle)
- Fallback client returns hydrabase_client when selected, iTunes if disconnected
- Auto-reconnect respects fallback selection for dev_mode handling
- hydrabase added to settings save service list for persistence
- Status shows green Connected on page load when auto-connected
Hydrabase appears as a switchable source tab alongside Spotify/iTunes/
Deezer when connected and enabled. Added to alternate_sources list and
enhanced-search/source endpoint. Tab only shows when Hydrabase is
available — zero change when disconnected.
Add Hydrabase section to Settings → Connections with enable toggle,
WebSocket URL, API key, auto-connect, and connect/disconnect button.
_is_hydrabase_active() now checks hydrabase.enabled config in addition
to dev_mode — either path activates it. Default disabled, zero change
for existing users. Dev admin page stays behind dev mode password.
Adds Tidal per-profile OAuth with token storage on profile row.
Auth initiation stores profile_id in PKCE state, callback detects
it and stores encrypted tokens per-profile instead of globally.
Personal settings modal now shows Spotify, Tidal, Server Library,
and ListenBrainz sections for non-admin profiles. Admin sees only
ListenBrainz (unchanged). Server library selection wired into
playlist sync via _apply_profile_library.
Full per-profile support: Spotify (credentials + OAuth + playlists),
Tidal (OAuth + token storage), server library (Plex/Jellyfin/Navidrome),
ListenBrainz (existing). All backwards compatible — upgrading users
see zero change.
PlaylistSyncService now accepts profile_id and applies per-profile
library selection before syncing. _apply_profile_library sets Plex
library name or Jellyfin user/library on the client based on the
profile's saved preferences. All existing _get_active_media_client
calls automatically pick up the active profile via instance state.
Admin and profiles without custom library settings: zero change.
get_spotify_client_for_profile() returns the right SpotifyClient for
the active profile. Admin and profiles without custom creds get the
global client (zero behavioral change). Profiles with custom creds
get a dedicated cached instance with separate OAuth token storage.
Playlist listing endpoint now uses per-profile client so non-admin
users with their own Spotify credentials see their own playlists.
DB migration adds 11 columns to profiles table for per-profile Spotify
credentials, Tidal tokens, and media server library selection. All
encrypted, all default NULL (fall back to global config).
API endpoints follow existing ListenBrainz per-profile pattern:
- GET/POST/DELETE /api/profiles/me/spotify
- GET/POST /api/profiles/me/server-library
Foundation only — no frontend UI or client initialization changes yet.
Workers would endlessly match the same track because UPDATE WHERE id =
NULL matches 0 rows in SQL. Added AND id IS NOT NULL to all enrichment
queries (individual, batch EXISTS, and batch fetch) across all 9
workers. Also added process-level guard for belt-and-suspenders safety.
Fix Deezer get_track → get_track_details method name mismatch.
Stamp _original_index on tracks before submitting to download processor
so task indices match frontend modal row order. Sanitization and
filtering could reorder tracks, causing the backend to assign indices
that didn't match the displayed rows. Visual-only fix — actual
downloads were always correct.
All 6 playlist sync endpoints now accept download_complete phase so
users can re-sync after downloading. Added Rediscover button to
discovered and download_complete states (YouTube + Beatport). Added
full button set (Sync, Download Missing, Rediscover) for
download_complete which previously showed no buttons at all.
- Only emit batch_complete automation event when successful_downloads > 0
- Remove int() cast on album_id in _fix_incomplete_album — Plex/Jellyfin
use hash/text IDs that SQLite stores as-is in INTEGER columns
- Use string comparison for album_id equality check
Replace fixed primary/secondary hybrid dropdowns with an ordered list
of all 5 download sources. Users enable/disable each source and reorder
with up/down arrows to set download priority. Sources are tried in
order until one returns results.
- New hybrid_order config field (backward compat with legacy primary/secondary)
- Download orchestrator loops ordered list with per-source error handling
- Sortable source list UI with icons, toggle switches, priority numbers
- Source-specific settings shown for all enabled hybrid sources
- Seamless migration from legacy 2-source to N-source format
Before searching Soulseek/YouTube, checks the staging folder for a
matching file using tag-based or filename-based fuzzy matching. On match,
copies the file to the transfer folder and runs normal post-processing
(tagging, AcoustID, path organization). Staging scan is cached per batch
to avoid re-walking for every track.
Search results now show switchable tabs for alternate metadata sources.
Primary source renders immediately, alternate sources load in parallel
and tabs appear progressively as each completes.
- New /api/enhanced-search/source/<name> endpoint for per-source queries
- Source-aware routing via ?source= param on discography, album tracks,
album detail, and artist image endpoints (prevents numeric ID
misrouting between iTunes and Deezer)
- Source override stored on artistsPageState for consistent navigation
- Tabs styled with source brand colors, show result counts
- All additive — users who ignore tabs see zero behavioral change
- Add max_peer_queue setting to skip peers with long queues (soft filter
with fallback to unfiltered if all results removed)
- Add download_timeout setting replacing hardcoded 10-minute limit
- Include quality_score (peer health: upload speed, free slots, queue
length) in result ranking — was calculated but never used in sort key
- New UI controls in Soulseek settings section
- Frontend was concatenating Track and Artist inputs into a single
query string, causing Spotify to return mixed results matching
either word in any field. Now sends track and artist as separate
params; backend builds field-filtered query (track:X artist:Y).
- Result limit was silently capped at 10 in spotify_client.search_tracks
via min(limit, 10). Raised to respect requested limit up to
Spotify's API max of 50.
- iTunes fallback endpoint updated with same field-specific params.
- Legacy ?query= param still supported for backward compatibility.
Fixes#194
- Duplicate `spotify` key in saveSettings() object literal caused
second definition (embed_tags/tags) to silently overwrite the first
(client_id/client_secret/redirect_uri), destroying credentials on
every save. Merged into single key.
- authenticateSpotify() and authenticateTidal() now await saveSettings()
before opening auth window, ensuring credentials are persisted.
- Tidal auth now dynamically sets redirect_uri from request host for
LAN/Docker users and stores it in tidal_oauth_state so the callback
token exchange uses the same URI.
Fixes#191
Preflight: hash track IDs before syncing and compare against last sync.
Skip only if exact same tracks were already synced and all matched.
Replaces the old count-based smart-skip which could miss track swaps.
Sync history: update existing entry for same playlist_id instead of
creating duplicates. Re-syncing the same playlist now refreshes the
existing row with new timestamps and stats.
Metadata sources (Deezer/iTunes/Spotify) return separate entries for
Explicit/Clean/Remastered variants of the same album. Normalize titles
by stripping variant suffixes and group by name+year, keeping the
version with the most tracks or preferring explicit.
Playlist refresh was storing matched_data.album as a bare string with
no images dict. When unmatched tracks were added to the wishlist, they
showed as 'Unknown Album' with no cover art. Now all three playlist
import paths (authenticated API, public scraper, spotify_public) store
album as a proper dict with name and images array, matching the format
used by the discovery worker.
Track count heuristics were overriding the album_type field from
Spotify/iTunes/Deezer, forcing any release with <=3 tracks into
singles and 4-6 tracks into EPs regardless of actual album type.
Now trusts the source's album_type directly.
Replace category-based tag settings (10 toggles) with per-tag controls
grouped by source service in an accordion UI. Each of the 11 service
groups (Spotify, iTunes, MusicBrainz, Deezer, AudioDB, Tidal, Qobuz,
Last.fm, Genius, General) has a master toggle that disables all child
tags, with individual toggles for fine-grained control. ISRC and
copyright fallback chains are now per-source toggleable. Genre merge
contributions from each source are independently controllable. All
tags default to enabled for backward compatibility.
Post-processing now writes all 18 MusicBrainz tags that Picard writes:
Release Group ID, Album Artist ID, Release Track ID, Release Type,
Status, Country, Original Date, Media, Barcode, Catalog #, ASIN,
Script, Total Discs (plus the 5 already supported). One cached API
call per album via get_release with recordings include.
New "Tags to Embed" settings section with 10 category toggles (all
enabled by default): MusicBrainz IDs, Release Info, Source IDs, ISRC,
BPM, Mood & Style, Copyright & Label, Genre Merging, URLs, Quality.
Each shows inline description of what it includes.
Multiple code paths built wishlist album data as a bare string instead
of a dict with images/album_type/total_tracks, causing wishlist entries
to lose album name and artwork. Fixed in: Beatport fallback conversion,
sync normalization, _ensure_spotify_track_format, and wishlist service
track reconstruction. Now uses track name as album fallback and always
includes required album dict keys.
- Fix enrichment progress never updating: remove `continue` that skipped
progress_callback for successful tracks in enrich_chart_tracks
- Split chart/extract into two-step flow: extract raw tracks, then enrich
via polling endpoint with live progress overlay updates
- Move Beatport enrichment cache to persistent metadata cache system
- Fix metadata cache detail modal for Beatport (URL entity_ids with slashes)
- Add per-source Clear dropdown (Spotify/iTunes/Deezer/Beatport) to cache browser
- Remove debug logging from enrichment progress tracking
When the maintenance worker flags an incomplete album, users can now
click "Auto-Fill" to automatically locate missing tracks in the library,
move/copy them into the album folder, and apply full metadata enhancement
(MusicBrainz, Deezer, cover art, etc.). Singles are moved; tracks from
multi-track albums are copied. Quality gate prevents filling FLAC albums
with lossy files. Tracks not found in library are added to wishlist with
album context for auto-download.
- Persistent download bubble cards on Beatport page and dashboard,
matching the existing artist/search bubble UX with click-to-reopen,
green checkmark on completion, and snapshot persistence
- In-memory enrichment cache (2h TTL, thread-safe) skips re-scraping
when the same chart is clicked twice
- Batch enrichment replaces one-by-one HTTP requests with a single
POST, using WebSocket progress events for overlay updates
- Fix _beatportModalOpening guard blocking modal open after fast
cached enrichment by resetting the flag in openBeatportChartAsDownloadModal
- Hide Browse/My Playlists tabs — Browse is now the only Beatport view
- New sync_history DB table tracks last 100 syncs with full cached context
- Records history for all sync types: Spotify, Tidal, Deezer, YouTube,
Beatport, ListenBrainz, Mirrored playlists, and Download Missing flows
- Sync History button on sync page with modal showing entries, source
filter tabs, stats badges, and pagination
- Re-sync button: server syncs expand card inline with live progress bar,
matched/failed counts, and cancel button; download syncs open download modal
- Re-syncs update the original entry (moves to top) instead of creating duplicates
- Delete button (x) on each entry with smooth remove animation
- Fix mirrored playlist source detection (youtube_mirrored_ matched youtube_)
- Fix broken server import thumbnails with URL validation
Clicking any Beatport item now opens the download modal directly instead of
going through the discovery flow (scrape → chart card → discovery modal →
Spotify/iTunes matching → download).
Releases (albums/EPs) open as album downloads with full context.
Charts/playlists (Top 100, Featured Charts, DJ Charts, Top 10) open as
playlist downloads with per-track enrichment — each track's individual
Beatport page is visited to get release name, duration, artwork, BPM, key,
genre, and label.
Key changes:
- Add get_release_metadata() and enrich_chart_tracks() to scraper
- Add /api/beatport/release-metadata and /api/beatport/enrich-tracks endpoints
- Rewrite all Beatport click handlers to open download modal directly
- Per-track enrichment with live progress overlay (one-by-one fetching)
- Split combined artist strings so folder paths use primary artist only
- Prevent Beatport IDs from being written to Spotify tag fields
- Add beatport_release_ prefix detection for album download mode
- Support enrich=false query param for frontend-driven enrichment
Replace all hardcoded styled-components class selectors (with build hashes
that break on every Beatport deploy) with partial class name matches using
[class*="prefix"] pattern. Applies to new releases endpoint and hero
release scraper.
Add album_type and total_tracks fields to Track dataclass, populate from
Spotify/iTunes/Deezer API responses, and apply a small tiebreaker bonus
(+0.02 for albums, +0.01 for EPs) in all matching loops so album versions
win when confidence scores are otherwise equal.
All discovery workers (playlist, Tidal, Deezer, Spotify Public, YouTube,
ListenBrainz, Beatport) built album_data dicts without release_date when
using fallback metadata sources. The Track dataclass had release_date
available but it was never extracted into album_data, causing $year to
resolve as empty in file path templates.
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
Automatically mirrors every parsed playlist (Spotify, Tidal, YouTube, Beatport) to a local database so they're always accessible — even if a service subscription lapses or the browser closes.
- New "Mirrored" tab on the Sync page with source-branded cards showing discovery/download status
- Auto-mirrors on successful parse (upsert — re-parsing updates the existing mirror, no duplicates)
- Click any mirrored playlist to browse its full track list, then run it through the discovery pipeline
- Cards dynamically reflect live state: Discovering → Discovered → Downloading → Downloaded
- Download modal rehydrates after page refresh — click a "Downloading..." card to resume viewing progress
- All phase transitions (start, complete, cancel, error, modal close) keep card and backend state in sync
- Profile-scoped via profile_id, consistent with other features
Allow multiple users to share a single SoulSync instance with isolated personal data. Each profile gets its own watchlist, wishlist, discovery pool, similar artists, and bubble snapshots — while sharing the same music library, database, and service credentials.
- Netflix-style profile picker on startup when multiple profiles exist
- Optional PIN protection per profile; admin PIN required when >1 profiles
- Admin-only profile management (create, edit, rename, delete)
- Profile avatar images via URL with colored-initial fallback
- Zero-downtime SQLite migration — all existing data maps to auto-created
admin profile
- Single-user installs see no changes — profile system is invisible until
a second profile is created
- WebSocket count emitters scoped to profile rooms (watchlist/wishlist)
- Background scanners (watchlist, wishlist, discovery) iterate all profiles
Migrates 38 HTTP polling loops to WebSocket push events across 6 phases: service status, dashboard stats, enrichment workers, tool progress, sync/discovery progress, and scan status. All original HTTP polling is preserved as automatic fallback — if WebSocket is unavailable or disconnects, the app seamlessly reverts to its previous behavior. Includes 162 tests verifying event delivery, data shape, and HTTP parity. Also fixes a copy-paste bug in Beatport sync error cleanup.
Incremental database updates now detect when artists or albums have been removed from your media server (Plex, Jellyfin, or Navidrome) and automatically clean them up from SoulSync's database. Previously, deleted content would persist as ghost entries until you ran a full refresh. Removal counts are reported in the scan results. Includes safety checks to prevent accidental mass deletion if the server is unreachable or returns incomplete data.
Adds a full public REST API at /api/v1/ with 32 endpoints covering library, search, downloads, wishlist, watchlist, playlists, system status, and settings. Includes API key authentication (Bearer token), per-endpoint rate limiting, and consistent JSON response format. API keys can be generated and managed from the Settings page. No changes to existing functionality — the API delegates to the same backend services the web UI uses.
Adds Tidal as a third download source alongside Soulseek and YouTube. Uses the tidalapi library with device-flow authentication to search and download tracks in configurable quality (Low/High/Lossless/HiRes) with automatic fallback. Integrates into the download orchestrator for all modes (Tidal Only, Hybrid with fallback chain), the transfer monitor, post-processing pipeline, and file finder. Frontend includes download settings with quality selector, device auth flow, and dynamic sidebar/dashboard labels that reflect the active download source. No breaking changes for existing users.
Filled all missing Hydrabase fallthrough gates across 6 endpoints (artist album tracks, iTunes album, discover album, Spotify track, both similar artists), added track_number/disc_number to Track dataclass, fixed get_album_tracks to send soul_id instead of text query, mapped soul_id field from Hydrabase responses across all search methods, updated 7 frontend call sites to pass album name/artist params, and fixed M3U export defaulting to enabled when users never turned it on.
Fix short artist names (e.g. "ano") getting buried by wildcard matches. Re-ranks Spotify and iTunes results so exact name matches appear first, without changing what's returned.
SoulSync was importing from all Navidrome libraries regardless of user access restrictions. Added a "Music Library" dropdown in Navidrome settings that lets users scope imports to a specific music folder. Uses the Subsonic musicFolderId parameter on artist, album, and search API calls. Selecting "All Libraries" reverts to the previous behavior.
Sync status was being saved to storage/sync_status.json on disk, which fails in Docker with permission denied errors. Moved to the existing database preference system so it works in all environments.
Introduce batch removal support for wishlist tracks. Adds a new POST endpoint /api/wishlist/remove-batch that validates input, removes multiple tracks via the wishlist service, logs the result and returns a removed count. Updates the frontend (webui/static/script.js) to provide per-track and per-album checkboxes, a Select All button, a batch action bar with selection count and a Remove Selected action (with confirmation), and logic to refresh the view and wishlist count after removal. Styles (webui/static/style.css) are extended to support unified watchlist/wishlist batch bars, checkbox styling, and a Select All button. Preserves existing single-item removal behavior.
Increase the minimum confidence cutoff to 0.9 in multiple discovery/search routines to reduce false positives. Affected functions: _search_spotify_for_tidal_track, _run_youtube_discovery_worker, _run_listenbrainz_discovery_worker, and _run_beatport_discovery_worker. This tightens matching criteria (previously 0.6/0.7/0.75) to favor higher-confidence matches, potentially reducing incorrect matches at the cost of fewer total matches.
Add server endpoint to trigger a manual download for a user-selected candidate from the candidates modal (/api/downloads/task/<id>/download-candidate). The endpoint validates input, resets task and batch state (status, error, used_sources, active_count, permanently_failed_tracks), reconstructs Track/TrackResult objects and dispatches a background download attempt via missing_download_executor. Update the frontend candidates modal to show a download button per candidate, wire it to POST the candidate to the new API, and add CSS for table layout and download button styling. Enables restarting failed/not_found tasks by choosing a specific source without blocking the UI.
Expose cached search results for failed downloads and add a UI to review them. Implements a new GET /api/downloads/task/<task_id>/candidates endpoint that serializes any cached_candidates and track_info for a task and returns an error message and candidate count. The download worker now collects top raw search results (all_raw_results) and stores them in download_tasks[task_id]['cached_candidates'] when no match is found so users can inspect what Soulseek returned. The batch status payload includes has_candidates to mark "not_found" tasks as reviewable. On the frontend, new script functions (_ensureCandidatesClickListener, showCandidatesModal, _renderCandidatesModal, closeCandidatesModal) fetch and render a modal table of candidates; existing status rendering is updated to attach click handlers and error tooltips. Styles for the modal and a clickable .has-candidates state are added to style.css.
Add a POST /api/quarantine/clear endpoint to delete all files and folders inside the ss_quarantine directory (uses docker_resolve_path and reports removed item count). Implement _sweep_empty_download_directories() to walk the downloads folder bottom-up and remove empty directories (preserves root download dir, skips hidden entries, robust against locked/non-empty dirs). Wire the sweeper into existing cleanup flows: clear_finished_downloads(), the periodic _simple_monitor_task(), and the failed-tracks post-cleanup path so leftover empty folders are removed. Also add a Clear Quarantine button in the web UI and a clearQuarantine() client function to call the new API and show feedback.
Add limit=50 to spotify_client.get_artist_albums so up to 50 albums/singles/compilations are returned per request, reducing the need for extra pagination and ensuring more complete discography results from a single call.
Store album artists in the Spotify track data structure (handles both dict and object album forms) so downstream processing has access to album-level artist metadata. Also update missing-track processing to fall back to source_info['watchlist_artist_name'] when artist_name is absent, ensuring artist context is preserved for legacy/watchlist-sourced entries.
In web_server.py, increase the minimum artist similarity from 0.4 to 0.5 in both cache validation and candidate scoring. Add a title similarity floor (min_title_similarity = 0.5) to _discovery_score_candidates: compute cleaned/core titles, allow a core-title exact match to bypass the floor, otherwise require title similarity >= 0.5. Only candidates that pass both artist and title floors proceed to full weighted scoring. This reduces false positives where a strong artist match could previously mask a poor title match.
Introduce a generic score_track_match(...) in core/matching_engine.py and make calculate_match_confidence(...) delegate to it. The new scorer is source-agnostic, consolidates artist/title/duration logic (core-title fast path, cleaned similarity, weighted 60/30/10 scoring) and improves artist matching.
In web_server.py add cache-validation (_validate_discovery_cache_artist) and a reusable _discovery_score_candidates(...) helper that calls the new scorer. Propagate per-match confidence through discovery flows (Tidal, YouTube, ListenBrainz, Beatport), increase Spotify/iTunes search limits, add an extended high-limit search strategy, tighten per-source thresholds, and save match confidence to the discovery cache. Overall this centralizes and standardizes matching logic and improves accuracy/validation for cached discovery results.
Add album.artists to the album data when adding wishlist tracks and change the missing-tracks processing to prefer album-level artists for constructing artist context. The code now uses spotify_data.get('album') or {} and picks artist_ctx from album.artists first, falls back to source_info.artist_name (with safe JSON parsing if source_info is a string), then to track-level artists, and finally to a generic Unknown Artist. This ensures tracks from compilations or albums where the album artist differs from track artists are grouped consistently.
Expand track title normalization and refine album grouping logic.
- core/acoustid_verification.py: Broadened the parenthetical-suffix regex to strip year-based remasters and additional variants (e.g. "2025 Remaster", "single edit", "album edit") while still removing common extras like (Live), (Deluxe), (Radio Edit), and featuring tags.
- web_server.py: Restrict the smart album grouping to only run for singles/auto-detected albums; explicit album downloads now preserve the original Spotify album name to avoid mangling names (e.g. reworked/remastered vs deluxe). Added explicit logging for both smart grouping and skipped grouping paths. The verification post-processing worker now checks an is_album_download flag in context and skips re-grouping when true, with fallback logging on errors.
These changes prevent unintended renaming of explicit album downloads and improve normalization of common title suffixes.
- matching_engine.py: Add 'single edit' and 'album edit' tokens and clarify radio edit comment so edit/cut variants are recognized as different cuts rather than being silently normalized away.
- database/music_database.py: Fix SQL param ordering by appending server_source to params; add a pre-step to strip "(with ...)" / "[with ...]" only when used inside brackets (so titles like "Stay With Me" are preserved); stop removing edit/version tokens in the generic cleanup and document that radio/single/album edits are treated as distinct by the similarity scorer to avoid incorrect matches.
- web_server.py: Increase DB match confidence threshold from 0.70 to 0.80 and update the runtime check accordingly.
These changes prevent edit/cut variants from being conflated with original recordings, improve title normalization for "with" featuring syntax in brackets, and fix a params ordering bug and a too-low match threshold.
Introduce a global watchlist override feature and UI to control release/content filters across all watchlist artists. Backend: add /api/watchlist/global-config (GET/POST) for reading/updating global settings, validation to require at least one release type when override is enabled, and _apply_watchlist_global_overrides() to apply settings to WatchlistArtist objects. Scanners (manual and automatic) now call _apply_watchlist_global_overrides() and perform additional checks (_should_include_release, _should_include_track) to skip releases/tracks according to config. Frontend: add a Global Watchlist Settings modal, controls (release types, content filters, include-all shortcut), save/validation logic, banners/notices when global override is active, and integration into the watchlist modal and per-artist config. Styles: add supporting CSS for the modal and banners. Small cleanup/whitespace adjustments included.
Add support for cycling hero/featured similar artists by introducing a last_featured timestamp and using it to prefer least-recently-featured artists. Changes include:
- DB migration: add _add_similar_artists_last_featured_column and call it during migrations to add a last_featured TIMESTAMP column (non-fatal on error).
- Query changes: get_top_similar_artists now excludes watchlist artists via a LEFT JOIN and wa.id IS NULL and orders results by last_featured (nulls first), then by last_featured asc, occurrence_count desc, and similarity_rank asc. The query aliasing was also added for clarity.
- New helper: mark_artists_featured updates similar_artists.last_featured = CURRENT_TIMESTAMP for shown artists.
- Web server: increase fetch limit to 50, remove random shuffle and instead take the top 10 (already ordered by cycling logic), and call mark_artists_featured to rotate featured artists.
These changes aim to provide deterministic, least-recently-shown cycling of hero artists while keeping watchlist artists out of recommendations.
