Owning a still-running show means you want its new episodes, so it's on the
watchlist without a click. Implemented as a computed default + explicit-override
so it stays correct:
- video_watchlist gains a 'state' column: 'follow' (explicit) | 'mute' (a
tombstone — user un-followed an airing show that's on by default, so the
default must not silently re-add it).
- Effective watchlist (list/state/counts) = explicit follows ∪ library shows
whose status isn't ended/canceled, minus mutes. Computed at READ time, so it
always tracks the library + a show's status — no scanner hook, no re-seeding.
- remove() now writes a mute tombstone (idempotent) instead of deleting; add()
sets state='follow' and clears any mute. Scoped to the active video server.
The existing library-card eye now paints 'watched' on airing shows by default;
clicking mutes, clicking again re-follows.
4 tests updated/added incl. the airing-default + mute + re-follow flow. 80 video
tests green.
A curated follow-list for the video side, mirroring the music watchlist. v1 is
membership only — the monitoring/discovery engine is a later phase.
Backend:
- video_watchlist table (kind 'show'|'person', keyed on tmdb_id — the stable
cross-context id both carry; library_id kept when owned). NOT the existing
shows.monitored flag (that defaults to 1 / is library-only / has no people).
- VideoDatabase: add/remove/list/state/counts (upsert COALESCEs library_id +
poster so a TMDB re-add can't wipe known data).
- /api/video/watchlist {GET, /add, /remove, /check, /counts}.
- query_library now selects s.tmdb_id so show cards can carry the key.
Frontend:
- video-watchlist-btn.js: shared eye button (the music ya-watchlist-btn mirror)
— build/toggle/hydrate, one delegated capture-phase click handler, broadcasts
soulsync:video-watchlist-changed so pages can react.
- Watchlist page (new subpage + video-watchlist.js): Shows / People tab switcher,
poster grid to detail-page quality, reloads each visit, drops cards on unfollow.
- Wired the eye onto library TV-show cards (movies excluded — wishlist, not
watch) + hydrate on render.
Tests: 6 new (DB upsert/COALESCE/state/counts + endpoint roundtrip/validation).
76 video tests green. Other card surfaces (cast, search, similar, filmography)
are the same VideoWatchlist.btn(...) one-liner — wired next.
Storage was already per-server (movies/shows UNIQUE(server_source, server_id),
episodes via per-server show_id, prune_missing scoped) — but reads returned
every server's rows, so a Jellyfin scan would show up alongside Plex.
Mirror the music standard: scope reads to the active video server
(resolve_video_server). query_library, calendar_upcoming, dashboard_stats and
library_id_for_tmdb take a server_source; the dashboard/library/calendar
endpoints pass it. server_source=None keeps "all servers" (enrichment processes
every server; tests unchanged). No schema change, no data migration — existing
Plex data is untouched and simply hidden while Jellyfin is the active server.
Regression tests: same title on both servers stays two rows; scoped reads only
return the active server's data; deep-scan prune never touches the other server.
Give the video side its OWN server connection — pre-filled from music but stored
separately in video.db, fully isolated (video never writes music config/state).
- Effective config helpers (video_plex_config / video_jellyfin_config): video's
own creds when set, else inherited read-only from music. resolve_video_server +
_build_source + watch-link/poster/dashboard all use these (own db threaded in).
- Server Connection UI mirrors music's server picker (toggle = select + configure),
scoped to Plex/Jellyfin, at the bottom of the Connections tab.
- Jellyfin: independent client built from video's creds; explicit USER picker like
music (list users → that user's libraries); honors the pick, admin fallback.
- Honest connection diagnostics (reachable vs 401 vs no-users) instead of a vague
"auth failed".
- Auto-save on change with toasts; the shared Save button is intercepted on the
video side so it saves video settings (and can't fire a music save).
- Enrichment status now PUSHES over the socket like music (no browser polling /
access-log flood); config save only rebuilds workers when an API key changed.
- Seam tests for effective-config inheritance/override + isolation guard.
Two real coupling bugs, fixed:
- resolve_video_server still fell back to the music active server when no explicit
video pick was set, so changing the music server changed video. Removed: video
now uses ONLY an explicit video pick or the configured server(s) (Plex default
when both). Changing the music server never changes video.
- The shared settings page could persist active_media_server from the video side.
Guarded saveSettings itself (not just the debounced auto-save) so it NEVER runs
while data-side=video — video saves only via /api/video/*.
Test: video does not follow the music active server. One-way isolation, both ways.
Settings → Video Source shows which server video uses (✓ Plex/Jellyfin), a
Plex/Jellyfin picker when both are connected, or a clear 'connect Plex or
Jellyfin' message when neither (Navidrome/Standalone are music-only and not
offered). The Library shows a non-breaking 'no video server' banner + disables
Scan until one is connected. Detail Pages prefs moved into their own 'Video
Preferences' group. /api/video/server GET+POST drives it.
The video side now uses a configured Plex/Jellyfin on its own (resolve_video_
server), not config_manager.get_active_media_server(). So a music-only server
(Navidrome/SoulSync) never applies to video, and 'Navidrome for music + Plex for
video' works. Order: explicit video pick (video_server setting) → music-active if
video-capable → the single configured one → Plex if both → None. Seam tests cover
each case incl. the mixed setup.
A saved 'Where-to-watch region' picker in Settings → Detail Pages (19 common
regions, default US). The engine reads it for the providers in extras +
tmdb_detail (region in the cache key), and the detail page labels the section
'Where to Watch · <region>' so you know which market you're seeing.
Click any episode (owned or missing) to expand it: a larger still, full overview,
and the episode's guest stars (clickable to the person page). Lazy-loaded per
episode from TMDB by the show's tmdb_id and cached. New client.episode_detail +
engine.episode_extra + /api/video/episode/<show_tmdb>/<season>/<episode>.
We already scanned codec/audio/source/size but only showed resolution. The movie
detail Details block now surfaces Quality / Video (HEVC, H.264…) / Audio / Source
(Blu-ray, WEB-DL…) / Size, and lists every version/edition you own when there are
multiple files. movie_detail now returns all media_files (not just the largest).
The inline dict cache was a latent bug: no lock (the engine singleton is hit by
concurrent Flask + worker threads) and a wholesale-clear cliff at 256 (nuked hot
entries). Extracted a thread-safe TTL+LRU TTLCache into an importable core/ module
with seam tests (expiry via injected clock, LRU-not-wholesale eviction, a
concurrency stress test). Engine now uses it; search is cached too (60s, ownership
re-stamped fresh). Deliberately NOT persisted to disk — durable data already lives
in video.db; that tier would be over-engineering for a self-hosted app.
The owned-item extras and preview detail payloads were already cached (30-min
TTL); person_detail, tmdb_season, and trending were not — so person pages and
lazy preview seasons re-hit TMDB each view. Now cached too (trending 1h). Library
ownership is re-annotated fresh on each call so 'In Library' badges stay current
while the expensive TMDB fetch is reused. Tests for person + season caching.
After a couple seconds on a detail page, a muted trailer plays behind the hero
(Netflix/Disney+ style) with mute/unmute + stop controls; the backdrop fades back
when stopped. Stops on navigate-away/modal-open (no orphaned audio).
Gated by a 'Autoplay trailers in the billboard' toggle in video Settings →
Detail Pages (default on). Backed by billboard_autoplay in video_settings, read
via a lightweight /api/video/prefs. Tests updated for the new config field.
extras() now returns a featured review (author, rating, snippet, date); the detail
page shows it in a card with a clamped body + Read more/less. In-app (no external
link).
Owned detail pages sample the poster for the per-title glow, but preview/person
pages fell back to the theme accent because their TMDB images are cross-origin
(canvas taint). Added /api/video/img — a same-origin proxy restricted to
image.tmdb.org (SSRF-safe) — so:
- preview (tmdb) detail samples its poster via the proxy → real accent;
- the person page samples the portrait → per-person accent on the ring/glow/role.
Tests: route registered + proxy rejects non-tmdb URLs.
Frontend for the new data, on both movie + TV detail pages:
- Photos: a backdrops rail → fullscreen lightbox (‹ › nav, keyboard arrows, Esc,
counter).
- Videos: a rail of every trailer/teaser/clip/featurette (YouTube thumbs) → opens
in the existing player modal.
- Details: budget / box office / language / country + keyword tag chips.
- Cast & Crew gets a 'View all N' → full-cast modal (clickable to person; TV shows
per-actor episode counts).
All cached server-side (instant re-open) and lazy-loaded images. Isolated; shell
tests cover the new sections + modals.
One TMDB call (append_to_response) now also returns: image gallery (backdrops +
posters, thumb+full), all YouTube videos (ordered trailer→teaser→clip→…), keyword
tags, facts (budget/revenue/language/country), and the FULL cast (tv via
aggregate_credits with per-actor episode counts). Shared by item_extras (owned)
and full_detail/tmdb_detail (preview).
Caching: the engine memoizes the live TMDB extras + preview payloads (30-min TTL)
so re-opening a title is instant instead of re-hitting TMDB. Tests added.
- Play button now matches the Trailer/Watchlist buttons exactly (same size/shape),
just green — consistent hero buttons.
- Where to Watch: drop the duplicate streaming provider that matches your server
(no more two 'Plex' entries). Providers still share TMDB's single JustWatch
'where to watch' link (that's all TMDB gives).
- Director/Creator names (hero line + Cast & Crew section) are clickable → the
in-app person page.
- Opening a show whose full episode list isn't cached yet now shows a 'Fetching
the full episode list…' banner with a spinner, instead of a silent ~20s gap
before missing episodes pop in.
- Sort dropdown: Newest / Oldest / Most popular.
- Department filter (Acting / Directing / Writing / …) for multi-hyphenates —
only appears when a person has 2+ departments. Composes with the existing
kind + ownership filters; every chip shows a CONTEXTUAL count (what you'd get
if you clicked it, given the other active filters).
- Age in the hero meta ('47 years old', or lifespan + 'aged N' for the deceased).
- Backend: each person credit now carries its department (cast=Acting,
crew=its TMDB department). Seam test added. 249 video-suite tests pass.
Movie + TV detail pages get the things a premium app surfaces:
- Primary 'Play on Plex/Jellyfin' button (white Netflix-style CTA with the server
logo) in the billboard for owned items — deep-links straight to the item.
- 'Directed by' (movies) / 'Created by' (shows) line in the hero.
- Movies: a Collection/franchise row (the other films in the set), release-ordered.
- 'More Like This' now uses TMDB recommendations (better curated), similar as
fallback.
- TV: a 'Next Episode' banner (S/E + name + air date) for continuing shows, and
the selected season's overview under the season nav.
All in-app (cards drill into library/preview detail). Shell tests updated.
'Request limit reached!' is the free-tier daily quota (1,000/day), not a bad key
— so the worker now idles ~30 min and auto-resumes instead of pausing for good.
A library bigger than the daily cap just spreads its ratings across days on its
own. A genuinely invalid/unactivated key still hard-pauses until fixed. Cooldown
reads as paused in the UI (+ a 'cooldown' flag and note). Item is never burned to
synced, so nothing is lost.
OMDb returns a JSON body even on 401, so surface its actual Error: 'Invalid API
key!' (nudges the user to click OMDb's activation email) vs 'Request limit
reached!' (free-tier daily quota). The worker's pause note uses the same message.
The log flood you saw was the OMDb worker hitting a 401 (invalid key) on every
owned title: it logged a full traceback per item AND marked each one
ratings_synced=1 — which would've stopped them ever retrying once the key was
fixed. Root-cause fixes:
- OMDBClient.ratings raises a distinct OMDbAuthError on 401 / 'Invalid API key!'
(vs a transient error vs a genuine no-data 200).
- Worker: on an auth error it PAUSES (transient, not persisted) with a reason
note + one warning, instead of churning the whole library; the item is NOT
marked synced. Transient errors no longer burn items either — they back off and
pause after 3 in a row. Only a genuine 'no data' marks an item synced. Warnings
are concise (no per-item tracebacks). get_stats exposes the pause 'note'.
- Fixing the key auto-recovers: saving a new/changed OMDb key re-queues every
still-unrated title (resets the wrongly-burned ones), and the engine rebuild
un-pauses the worker.
Seam tests: bad-key pause-without-burn, transient keep-item, ratings() raises on
401, key-change re-queues unrated. 227 video-suite tests pass.
The 'Where to Watch' section is now actionable:
- For an OWNED title it leads with a 'Play on Plex/Jellyfin' tile (green, play
glyph) that deep-links straight to the item on your server — Plex via the
app.plex.tv web app (machineIdentifier fetched once + cached), Jellyfin via its
web detail page. Built in engine.item_extras from the row's server_source +
server_id and the shared media-server config (same source poster.py uses).
- Streaming providers (TMDB/JustWatch) are now clickable → the where-to-watch
page, with a hover lift.
Owned-only: preview (tmdb) items have no library row so they get no server tile.
Seam tests cover the Jellyfin + Plex link building and the unowned no-link case.
240 video-suite tests pass.
Person hero glow-up:
- Cinematic ambient — blurred portrait + an accent colour mesh + vignette, masked
to fade into the page (was a flat wash).
- Portrait gets a slowly-rotating accent gradient ring (masked donut, GPU
transform) and a gentle float; an accent ring + glow frame.
- An accent role tagline ('ACTOR' / 'DIRECTOR' …) above a gradient-filled name,
plus a credits-count chip. Honors prefers-reduced-motion.
Performance:
- Long filmography grids use content-visibility:auto + contain-intrinsic-size so
the browser skips off-screen cards (cheap scroll), and skip replaying the
entrance animation as cards recycle.
- Hero layers are static (painted once); only two tiny composited transforms
animate. Posters/photos stay on small TMDB sizes + lazy-load; trending cached;
search debounced + request-sequenced.
Pure visual/perf layer — same data + isolation. Shell/JS tests pass.
Smart back (mirrors music's artist-detail): the top-left back button now
remembers where you actually came from, many layers deep. It keeps an origin
stack ({page} or {detail title}) and stamps each history entry with its layer
depth, so:
- the label is dynamic — '← Back to Search' / '← Back to The Bear' / '← Back to
<person>' — instead of a hardcoded 'Library'/'Back';
- backing out of the first layer returns to the page you started from (Search,
Watchlist, wherever), not always the Library;
- browser Back and our button both unwind the chain one layer at a time, in sync.
Fixes: search → person → back → movie used to mislabel as 'Library' and dump you
in the library.
Next level:
- Search isn't a blank box when idle — a 'Trending this week' rail (TMDB
trending, owned/preview annotated). Returns when you clear the query.
- Person page gets a 'Known For' hero rail (top titles by popularity) above a
full filmography now sorted chronologically (newest first).
Backend: TMDBClient.trending + engine.trending (+library annotation), route
/api/video/trending. Isolated; 237 video-suite tests pass.
Search any movie / show / person (TMDB multi-search) entirely in-app. Results
that you already own link straight to the library detail; the rest open a
TMDB-backed 'preview' detail that reuses the exact same Netflix billboard UI
(direct image URLs, nothing owned/enriched). Everything resolves back into
SoulSync — no external links on un-owned titles.
- Search page (video-search.js): debounced /api/video/search, grouped
movies/shows/people cards (reuses .library-artist-card) with owned/preview
ribbons. People open the person page.
- Source-agnostic detail (video-detail.js): loads from /api/video/detail
(library) or /api/video/tmdb (preview); art helpers pick proxy vs direct URLs;
tmdb shows lazy-load episodes per season; owned-via-tmdb-url auto-redirects to
the library detail.
- 'More Like This' now drills in-app (tmdb detail, redirects if owned); cast/crew
link to a new in-app person page (bio + filmography, each credit owned/preview).
Library credits now carry tmdb_id so owned-item cast is clickable too.
- Backend: TMDBClient.search/full_detail/person (+ shared _parse_extras);
engine.search/tmdb_detail/tmdb_season/person_detail; db.library_id_for_tmdb;
routes /search, /tmdb/<kind>/<id>, /tmdb/show/<id>/season/<n>, /person/<id>.
Isolated (one-way): video-only files, no music imports, music shell untouched.
Seam tests: search/full_detail parsing, tmdb_detail assemble+redirect, search +
person library annotation, library_id_for_tmdb, route registration, shell/JS
isolation. 234 video-suite tests pass.
OMDb now has the same setup as TMDB/TVDB: a yellow dashboard orb (★ glyph) that
spins/idles in the worker-orb animation, an entry in Manage Workers (Ratings
coverage cards, pause/resume, retry, search), and a BACKGROUND ratings pass.
- Worker 'ratings mode' (is_ratings): instead of a match queue it pulls
ratings_next() (library items with an imdb_id and ratings_synced=0), fetches
IMDb/RT/Metacritic, applies + marks synced. So the whole library gets ratings,
not just titles you open (schema v7: ratings_synced).
- enrichment_breakdown/unmatched/retry get an 'omdb' branch (coverage =
ratings-filled, not matched). build_clients includes omdb; the lazy on-view
backfill uses the omdb worker's client.
- Dashboard orb + Manage Workers entry (★ glyph fallback where there's no logo),
yellow accent.
Seam tests: omdb worker rates the queue (ratings mode), ratings breakdown.
Next-level: real critic/audience scores beyond the TMDB star. OMDb (free key,
keyed by the imdb_id we already capture) returns IMDb / RT / Metacritic.
- OMDBClient (ratings + test); built as a non-worker 'ratings_client' on the
engine. _backfill_ratings runs in both lazy detail refreshes (overwrites, since
ratings are dynamic). schema v6: imdb_rating / rt_rating / metacritic on
movies + shows; show/movie payloads return them.
- Billboard renders branded rating badges (IMDb yellow, RT tomato/splat by
fresh/rotten, Metacritic green/yellow/red by score). Lazy refresh also triggers
when an imdb_id exists but ratings are missing.
- OMDb API-key frame in Settings (parity with TMDB/TVDB) + config GET/POST +
/enrichment/omdb/test.
Seam tests: OMDb parse, engine ratings backfill, apply_ratings + payload, config
includes omdb.
So library cards show real owned/total (e.g. 8/10) WITHOUT opening each show. When
the TMDB worker's match queue is clear, it pulls the full season/episode list for
one already-matched-but-unsynced show per loop (episode_sync_next), inserting
missing episodes + marking it synced. Over time every library show gets its full
list; the on-view lazy refresh still makes the one you open instant. TMDB-only;
counts toward the worker's pending so it shows busy (not 'Complete') while syncing,
and never loops on a single failing show.
Seam tests: episode_sync_next selection + pending count, worker syncs a pre-feature
matched show to the full list.
Reload bug: music's router boots first, rewrites an unknown /video-detail/... URL
to /dashboard, and my init read the already-changed URL (no restore) AND dispatched
open-detail before video-detail.js was listening (empty page + stray back button).
Fix: capture the path at SCRIPT-EVAL time (before music boots) and DEFER the
restore to a macrotask so every DOMContentLoaded handler is registered and music's
initial routing has run — then re-assert the real URL. Reload/deep-link now restore
the exact item.
Missing-episodes bug: the full-episode-list cascade only ran via the lazy refresh,
which was gated on ART being missing — so a show that already had posters/logo
never pulled its episode list (stayed owned-only). Added shows.episodes_synced
(schema v5): the worker sets it after a full cascade; show_detail returns it; the
lazy refresh now triggers when NOT synced, so owned + missing episodes populate.
Mirrors the music side instead of a custom scheme: library cards are genuine
<a href='/video-detail/<source>/<kind>/<id>'> links, so reload / new-tab / Back /
Forward all work. Left-clicks are intercepted into SPA nav + history.pushState;
modifier-clicks fall through to the real URL.
- popstate restores the detail from the URL; the '← Library' back button is real
history.back(); deep-link / reload to a /video-detail/... URL is restored on load
(path captured before applySide can clear it). Server already serves the SPA for
these paths (permissive catch-all) — no backend change.
- The path carries a SOURCE segment ('library' = a video.db id today; 'tmdb' /
search results not yet in the library come later) — your library-vs-search split.
- Coexists with music's pathname router (only touches /video-detail/* and its own
popstate); music's link/popstate handlers ignore these paths.
Tests: real-link cards, pushState/popstate routing, source segment.
Previously the episodes table held only what the server has (all 'Owned'), so the
detail page never showed what you're missing. Now the metadata provider defines
the full series structure and the server marks ownership:
- TMDB returns the full season list (poster optional) + full episode fields
(title/air date/runtime/still/rating) per season.
- backfill_episodes UPSERTs: owned episodes keep has_file=1; episodes the server
lacks are inserted as MISSING (has_file=0); fully-missing seasons get created.
The cascade now iterates every TMDB season, not just the ones on the server.
- The scan prune only removes SERVER-originated rows (server_id set) that vanished,
so enrichment-added missing episodes/seasons are never pruned on re-scan.
Season coverage (X / Y) is now meaningful, and the episode list shows Owned +
Missing together. Seam tests: missing-episode insert, fully-missing season,
prune preserves missing.
Phase 4: dynamic extras fetched LIVE per view (providers change, so not cached)
via GET /detail/<kind>/<id>/extras → engine.item_extras → TMDB
(videos + watch/providers + similar in one call).
- Trailer: a '▶ Trailer' action that opens an in-app YouTube modal embed (Esc /
click-away to close).
- Where to Watch: provider logos for the region (JustWatch via TMDB).
- More Like This: a poster row of similar titles linking out to TMDB.
Both movie + show pages; all keyless (same TMDB key).
Seam tests: extras parse (trailer priority, provider/similar shape), item_extras
gating on tmdb_id, route registered, markup hooks. (RT/Metacritic via OMDb needs
its own key — offered separately.)
Phase 3: the stylized transparent title logo replaces the text title in the
billboard (the big Plex/Netflix 'premium' jump). Sourced from TMDB images
(append_to_response=images, include_image_language=en,null) in the same detail
call — no Fanart key needed.
- schema v4: movies.logo_url / shows.logo_url (idempotent migration).
- TMDB client picks an English logo (then language-neutral, then any); enrichment
backfills logo_url gap-only; show/movie payloads return 'logo'.
- Billboard shows the logo img (with graceful fallback to the text title on error
/ when absent; title kept visually-hidden for a11y). Lazy on-view refresh now
also triggers when the logo is missing, so existing libraries fill it in.
Seam tests: English-logo pick, backfill + payload, schema.
- Movie cards in the library now drill into a movie-detail page (both kinds use
the same open-detail event / video-side navigation).
- New video-movie-detail subpage reuses the .vd-* hooks; video-detail.js is now
kind-aware (root() targets the active page by kind, billboard/links/actions
branch on movie vs show). Flat layout: billboard + a details strip (released /
runtime / studio / status / critic score / quality) + the shared Cast & Crew row.
- Lazy on-view backfill for movies too: engine.refresh_movie_art re-fetches TMDB
(cast/genres/backdrop/ratings) when missing, regardless of match status, via
POST /detail/movie/<id>/refresh-art. movie_match_info added.
Seam tests: movie refresh backfills cast/genres, movie_match_info, route
registered, movie subpage markup, cards clickable for both kinds.
Last capture piece, schema v3 (new people + credits tables; CREATE IF NOT EXISTS
migrates existing DBs on restart, no wipe):
- people deduped by tmdb_id; credits link to exactly one movie OR show (separate
nullable FKs + CHECK, no polymorphic id) with department/job/character/order.
- TMDB client appends credits to the detail call (free) and parses cast (name,
character, photo, billing order) + headline crew (directors/writers/creators).
- enrichment_apply backfills cast/crew gap-only (never clobbers); show/movie
detail return cast + crew. Populates on view via the existing lazy refresh-art.
- Cast & Crew section on the detail page: grouped crew line + a horizontal
cast row with circular TMDB headshots, names, characters (accent hover).
Seam tests: TMDB credit parse (+ job filtering, created_by), backfill + people
dedup across titles, gap-only no-clobber, payload shape.
show_detail's season payload omitted the season id, so the frontend built
/api/video/poster/season/undefined and 404'd — season posters never showed even
once cached. Add the id; harden seasonArt to fall back to the show poster if id
is ever missing. Test pins that seasons carry an int id.
Root cause: season posters / episode art backfill happen during a show's TMDB
*match*, but already-matched shows never re-run ('Retry all failed' only resets
not_found/error), so existing libraries never got the art.
Fix (Boulder's idea): fetch-on-view + cache. When a show detail opens and any
season lacks a poster, the page calls POST /detail/show/<id>/refresh-art →
engine.refresh_show_art re-fetches /tv/<id> via the TMDB client and backfills
season posters + episode art gap-only, regardless of match status. Cached, so
it's a one-time cost per show; runs once per view; re-renders when done.
Seam tests: refresh_show_art backfills a MATCHED show's seasons, needs TMDB
configured, show_match_info, route registered.
Brings the video modal to parity with music's:
- 'Process first everywhere' control (Movies/Shows/Auto) in the topbar — a global
setting that pins which kind every worker processes first. enrichment_next takes
a priority kind; the worker reads enrichment_priority each loop; GET/POST
/api/video/enrichment/priority persists it. Reuses music's .em-global styling.
- Needs-matching bar now has a live count, status filter (All unmatched / Not
found / Pending) and a debounced search (reusing .em-select / .em-search),
matching the music modal. Episode view stays read-only.
- Live glow (scoped to #vem-overlay): pulsing running dot, accent glow on the
selected worker row + active process-first/kind, and a pulsing 'now processing'
chip in the worker accent. Music's shared .em-* styles untouched.
Seam tests: priority pins kind in enrichment_next + worker honors the setting,
priority endpoint GET/POST + validation, modal feature markup pinned.
Episodes ride along with their show instead of being a separate (tens-of-thousands)
queue: when the TMDB worker matches a show, it now backfills every season's
episodes — still / overview / rating — via /tv/<id>/season/<n> (one call per
season, gap-only so server data is never clobbered). Also backfills season
overviews.
The worker manager 'knows about it': the TMDB breakdown gains an Episodes
coverage entry (matched = has art, rest = pending), shown as its own card; the
Episodes view lists episodes still missing art. It's coverage-only, kept out of
the worker's idle/pending calc so it never blocks 'Complete'.
Seam tests: client season parse, worker cascade fills episodes, gap-only backfill
+ season overview, breakdown coverage (tmdb only), missing-art list, idle calc
ignores episode coverage.
The media server rarely has distinct per-season art, so season cards fell back to
a gradient. TMDB's show detail carries a poster_path per season — the show worker
now returns those, and enrichment_apply backfills seasons.poster_url for seasons
the server left without art (gap-only, never clobbers server art). The image
proxy streams a stored full URL (TMDB) directly vs. proxying a server path.
Seam tests: TMDB returns season posters, backfill fills only missing seasons.
Existing DBs created movies.tmdb_id / shows.tvdb_id as inline UNIQUE (can't be
dropped via migration). The new model allows the same title in >1 library, so a
second movie/show with the same id raised IntegrityError and the scanner SKIPPED
it — dropping the title (observed: 'UNIQUE constraint failed: movies.tmdb_id',
movie 548522 skipped).
upsert_movie/upsert_show_tree now use a shared _resilient_upsert: on
IntegrityError, retry WITHOUT the id columns so the row is stored (just without
the colliding id) — same pattern enrichment_apply already used. Regression tests
for both movies and shows under a simulated legacy unique index.
Enrichment now harvests the full detail payload (same call, no extra requests):
- TMDB: tagline, genres, rating (vote_average), runtime, status, first/last air
date (shows), release date + runtime (movies) — on top of overview/backdrop/ids.
- TVDB: switches to /series/<id>/extended for overview + genres.
enrichment_apply now uses BACKFILL semantics: metadata columns are written via
COALESCE(NULLIF(col,''), ?) so enrichment only fills fields the media server
left empty — it never clobbers server-provided data. Genres backfill to the
normalised link tables only when the item has none yet. Whitelist expanded for
the new columns.
Seam tests: backfill-only (server overview/genres kept, gaps filled), genre
backfill when empty, TMDB full-metadata extraction.
Captures the richer metadata the media server already exposes (schema v2;
idempotent migrations + CREATE IF NOT EXISTS, so an existing DB upgrades on
restart with no wipe):
- movies: tagline, rating (audience), rating_critic; shows: tagline, rating,
first/last air date; episodes: still_url + rating.
- Genres as a normalised many-to-many (genres + movie_genres/show_genres link
tables — no comma-blob), deduped, replace-on-upsert.
- Plex (.genres/.tagline/.audienceRating/.rating/.thumb) + Jellyfin (Genres/
Taglines/CommunityRating/CriticRating/Premiere+EndDate/episode Primary) both
extract them; episode stills served via /api/video/poster/episode/<id>.
- Detail payloads return genres/tagline/rating/air-dates + per-episode has_still;
the billboard shows a tagline, ★ score, genre chips, and episode rows render
REAL stills (no more orange placeholder once scanned).
Seam tests for genre dedup/replace, show+episode capture, episode still ref.
Cast/crew (people + credits) is the next phase.
Season selection is now switchable via a view toggle (persisted): poster RAIL
(scrollable season cards w/ coverage), TIMELINE band (segments sized by episode
count, filled by owned), TABS (pills), and the LIST dropdown. All drive the same
selection; episodes fade in on change.
- Watchlist button is now REAL: toggles shows.monitored via POST /api/video/monitor
(set_monitored), reflects 'In Watchlist' state. show_detail returns monitored.
- 'Get Missing' + a 'Missing only' toolbar toggle filter the episode list to
unowned episodes (actual downloading is the future acquisition subsystem).
Seam tests for the monitor endpoint + bad-input guards; shell hooks updated.
Per feedback, this drops the Spotify/artist-page parallel entirely and goes
Netflix:
- Full-bleed billboard (edge-to-edge — breaks out of the host's 40px padding),
big backdrop with Ken-Burns drift + layered scrims, oversized title, a Netflix
meta row (owned% · year · rating · seasons · runtime · status), 3-line synopsis,
and action buttons (Watchlist / Get Missing / external links).
- Per-show accent colour sampled from the poster (canvas) → drives the primary
button glow, status, episode hover — the SoulSync 'vibe', per title.
- Custom season dropdown + rich episode rows (index, 16:9 thumb w/ hover play,
title · runtime, 2-line synopsis, Owned/Missing) that fade/stagger in on season
change.
- Backdrop falls back to a cover-cropped poster; episode stills + genres + cast
arrive with the 'capture everything' phase. Watchlist/Get-Missing are visual
pending their endpoints. Shell tests updated.
Addresses the 'feels basic' feedback:
- Hero is now a contained glass card with the backdrop blurred INSIDE it +
gradient overlay (same treatment as the music artist hero) — no more bare
gaps around the top/sides. Bigger poster, accent external-link chips
(IMDb/TMDB/TVDB), refined badges + stat tiles.
- Seasons are a poster-art card grid (season = album) with coverage rings/bars
and hover-lift, selecting one renders its episodes below (episode = track) —
episode overviews now shown. Mirrors the artist album-grid -> tracklist.
- Scan now captures real per-season posters (Plex sh.seasons() thumbs / Jellyfin
/Seasons Primary), served via get_art_ref('season') + /api/video/poster/season.
Falls back to the show poster until a re-scan populates them.
Seam tests for the season art ref; shell markup tests still green.
Drill-in from a show card: full-bleed backdrop + poster + title/badges/overview +
stat tiles, then seasons->episodes as collapsible accordions with owned/missing
state and per-season coverage bars (season = album, episode = track — inspired by
the music artist page, premium vibe).
- video-detail.js (isolated IIFE) renders from /api/video/detail/show/<id>;
backdrop/poster via the proxy.
- Show cards dispatch soulsync:video-open-detail; video-side.js navigates to the
(non-nav) detail subpage; back button reuses data-video-goto.
- Movies stay non-clickable until the movie-detail page lands next.
- .vd-* CSS scoped to the detail page; music untouched. Shell + isolation tests.
The worker only logged exceptions, so a normal run looked dead — no parity with
the music workers' 'Matched ... -> ID' lines. Now logs each match (noting
'(by server id)' when it used the server's provider id) and each not-found at
INFO. Logger is soulsync.video_enrichment.worker, so it already propagates to
app.log; it just had nothing to say. caplog seam test pins it.
Backend for the upcoming TV/movie detail pages, isolated to video.db:
- show_detail(id): show + seasons->episodes tree with owned/total roll-ups
(season 0 -> 'Specials', missing-season-row episodes still grouped).
- movie_detail(id): movie + owned flag + best media-file (resolution/quality).
- get_art_ref generalizes the poster ref to poster|backdrop; new
/api/video/backdrop/<kind>/<id> streams the hero art server-side (Jellyfin
Backdrop vs Primary handled).
- /api/video/detail/{show,movie}/<id> endpoints.
Seam tests for the tree roll-ups, owned/file, art ref, and both endpoints.
A failed lookup CALL (network/429/5xx/timeout, or an expired TVDB token) was
recorded as 'not_found' — permanently logging a transient blip as 'no match'
and parking the item for retry_days. Now mirrors the music workers' proven
pattern:
- New 'error' status, distinct from 'not_found'; enrichment_next retries BOTH
after retry_days, so errors recover and the queue still advances (no poison
loop). breakdown/unmatched/retry-all and the modal account for it (shown with
the outstanding/pending bucket).
- TMDB/TVDB clients raise on non-200 (429/5xx) so the worker records 'error',
not a false not_found.
- TVDB re-authenticates once on a 401 (expired token) instead of failing every
match for the rest of the run.
Seam tests: error!=not_found, error retried after window, 429 raises, TVDB
token refresh, UI accounts for errors.
The deep scan stores tmdb_id/tvdb_id/imdb_id from Plex/Jellyfin, but the workers
only ever searched by title+year and ignored those ids — re-deriving matches the
server already had exact (wasteful, and a title search can mis-match).
enrichment_next now surfaces the row's known provider id; the worker forwards it
and the TMDB/TVDB clients fetch details BY ID (one call, no /search) when it's
present, falling back to title/year search only for items the server couldn't
identify. Still grabs the overview/backdrop the scan doesn't capture.
- Paused enrich buttons now get music's exact amber/yellow treatment (gradient,
border, glow, hover) and an amber tooltip status — was just a flat opacity dim.
- Manage Workers button reuses music's .em-manage-btn* classes verbatim, so the
logo sits in the same gradient icon-circle with glow and the pill matches
pixel-for-pixel. Still wired by data-attribute (no inline handler), and music's
orbs/handler can't touch it (scoped to #dashboard-page). Dropped the old
bespoke .video-manage-workers-* CSS.
Every scan (incremental / full / deep, both entry points) now steps the
enrichment workers aside to cut DB lock contention — same as music. Mirrors
music's contract exactly: pause ONLY workers that were running (a user's manual
pause is left alone), track which we paused, and resume just those in a finally
so success, cancel, and error all clean up. Auto-pause is transient
(persist=False) so it never leaks into the saved <service>_paused flag.
Hooks are injected by get_video_scanner; the scanner is inert without them
(tests build it directly, no engine spun up). Isolated to the video side.
TVDB enriches shows only, but selectWorker hardcoded state.kind='movie', so
picking TVDB queried tvdb+movie (always empty) and rendered a bogus Movies
view. Each worker now declares its kinds (tmdb: movie+show, tvdb: show) and the
panel defaults to the worker's first kind. Backend was already safe (returns
empty for unsupported service+kind); pinned that invariant with a seam test.
Port of webui/static/worker-orbs.js into video/video-worker-orbs.js — same
exact animation (physics/draw copied verbatim), but pointed at the video
dashboard header + the TMDB/TVDB enrich buttons + Manage Workers hub. Own
window.videoWorkerOrbs global, activated by the video side's page events;
music's orbs file is untouched and never learns about the video side.
video-enrichment.js feeds it real status as telemetry for the inbound pulses.
7s idle → floating orbs around the SoulSync logo, just like music.
Pause/resume now write <service>_paused to video_settings, and the engine
restores each worker's saved pause when it's (re)built — mirrors music's
<service>_enrichment_paused boot flag. Isolated to video.db; music untouched.
Existing DBs created before the schema dropped UNIQUE still have shows.tvdb_id /
movies.tmdb_id UNIQUE, so enrichment matching two items to the same id threw
'UNIQUE constraint failed' repeatedly. enrichment_apply now catches the
IntegrityError and retries without the id columns — keeps the existing
(authoritative) id and still records match_status + metadata. Non-destructive
(no table rebuild). Test simulates the legacy unique index.
Each video connection item (TMDB/TVDB) now has a Test button that behaves like
music's: saves the key, hits POST /api/video/enrichment/<svc>/test, and toasts
the result via the shared showToast — isolated (own endpoint, own data-attr
handler, reuses the .test-button CSS).
- Client .test() pings TMDB /configuration and TVDB /login to verify the key.
- Endpoint returns {success,message,error}; unknown service -> 404.
94 tests green; music untouched.
The video API-key frames had the real data-service attribute, so music's
settings.js verify loop (#settings-page .stg-service[data-service]) picked them
up and errored 'Unknown service: tvdb' — and it ran on the music side too
(shared DOM), so it WAS impacting music. Renamed to data-video-service: same
identical .api-service-frame look, but music's [data-service] selector can't
match them. Music untouched again.
The dashboard 'Manage Workers' button now opens a video enrichment modal that
reuses music's global .em-* modal CSS (identical look) but is entirely its own,
isolated JS: own #vem-overlay, event-delegated (no inline handlers, no music
function calls), targets /api/video/enrichment, shows only TMDB/TVDB with
movie/show coverage.
- Rail of workers (status dot + coverage), panel with pause/resume, per-kind
coverage cards (matched/not-found/pending segmented bars), and a paged
unmatched browser with retry (item + retry-failed).
- Polls the selected worker every 3s. The few invented sub-classes are styled
scoped to #vem-overlay so music is never affected. 87 tests green.
The whole-file 'music' substring check tripped on a comment ('only polls on the
video side, so the engine isn't spun up on the music side'). Replaced with the
meaningful checks: no music API path (/api/enrichment/) and no music modal call
(openEnrichmentManager).
Brings the worker buttons back onto the video dashboard header as real, live
controls — isolated (own CSS classes + own JS + /api/video/enrichment), music
untouched.
- TMDB/TVDB round buttons with per-service accent, a spinner that spins while
the worker runs, and a hover tooltip (status / current item / progress).
- video-enrichment.js polls /api/video/enrichment/<svc>/status (only on the
video side, so the video engine isn't spun up on the music side); click
toggles pause/resume. Manage Workers button fires soulsync:video-open-workers
for the modal (Phase 3).
86 tests green.
- GET/POST /api/video/enrichment/config saves the keys into video_settings;
POST rebuilds the engine (stop old workers, rebuild clients with new keys) so
they pick up the change live.
- video-settings.js loads the saved keys into the TMDB/TVDB fields on the
Connections tab and saves them on change (workers enable once a key is set).
Backend is now end-to-end: key -> client.enabled -> worker matches the library
to TMDB/TVDB and fills ids + metadata. 91 tests green; real DB untouched.
Mirrors the music enrichment API so the shared Manage-Workers modal can drive
video workers by pointing at /api/video/...:
- GET services; GET <service>/status (worker.get_stats); POST pause/resume;
GET breakdown; GET unmatched (paged, kind/status/q); POST retry.
- Unknown service -> 404. Engine via the lazy singleton; DB queries via the
isolated video DB. 6 API tests (services/status/breakdown/unmatched/pause/
resume/retry/404) with an injected engine + fake clients.
Foundation for the video enrichment workers, mirroring music's per-source
columns/queries on video.db.
- Schema: tmdb_match_status/tmdb_last_attempted on movies; tmdb_+tvdb_ on shows.
Idempotent ALTER-TABLE migration adds them to existing DBs on init.
- VideoDatabase helpers (service+kind -> columns map):
enrichment_next (pending first, then not_found past retry window),
enrichment_apply (sets id/status/last_attempted + whitelisted metadata,
backfill-safe), enrichment_breakdown, enrichment_unmatched (paged), and
enrichment_retry. Same shape as music's enrichment API so the shared modal can
drive it. 30 DB tests green.
The servers already matched everything to their agents — we were dropping the
IDs. Now we store them:
- Plex: parse item.guids (imdb://, tmdb://, tvdb://); Jellyfin: parse
item.ProviderIds (added ProviderIds to the requested Fields).
- Stored on movies (tmdb_id, imdb_id), shows (tvdb_id, tmdb_id, imdb_id), and
episodes (tvdb_id) via the upserts.
- Dropped the over-strict UNIQUE on movies.tmdb_id / shows.tvdb_id (same title
can legitimately live in two libraries; we dedupe on server_id). Scanner now
wraps each upsert in try/except so one bad item can't abort a scan.
Tests: guid/ProviderIds parsing + IDs persisted. 38 video-DB/scanner tests green.
load() passed the plural API kind (movies/shows) to the card renderer + poster
URL, which expect the singular (movie/show). Result: movie cards fell into the
'shows' branch (bogus '0/0 eps') and poster URLs were /api/video/poster/movies/..
-> 404 -> no images on either tab. Now apiKind (plural) is used for the query
and cardKind (singular) for cards + poster proxy.
The Refresh/Deep Scan buttons already fired a scan, but the card gave no
feedback so it looked dead. Now it mirrors music's dashboard library card:
- a progress section (phase + bar + detail) appears during a scan, driven by
the shared scan events (real percent);
- buttons disable while scanning;
- the card hydrates on load/return — if a scan is already running, video-scan.js
re-emits progress and the card shows it;
- stats refresh when the scan finishes.
Reuses music's .library-status-progress classes. 84 tests green.
Handles big libraries (your ~8500 movies) like music does instead of rendering
everything at once.
- DB: sort_title populated article-aware on upsert ('The Matrix' files under M);
query_library(kind, search, letter, sort, status, page, limit) does all
filtering/sorting/paging in SQL and returns music's pagination shape
{page,total_pages,total_count,has_prev,has_next} + badge fields (resolution,
owned/episode counts).
- GET /api/video/library now takes those params (per kind) instead of dumping
everything.
- Library page: 75/page with ← Previous / Page X of Y / Next → (music's exact
controls/classes), Sort (Title/Year/Recently Added) + Owned/Wanted filter,
server-side search + A–Z. Cards gain a resolution chip (4K/1080p/…) and the
owned/wanted meta. Still not clickable.
124 tests green.
The scan runs server-side, so on load video-scan.js now polls
/api/video/scan/status and, if a scan is in progress, restores the live UI
(Cancel button, moving progress bar, phase) and resumes polling — instead of
showing Idle after a refresh. Also re-checks when the Tools page is shown.
Because it re-emits the progress event, the Library/Dashboard scan affordances
rehydrate too.
- Incremental now does smart early-stopping like music: skips already-known
items and stops after 25 consecutive known (server lists recent first),
instead of a blind fixed cap. Falls back to a full pass when the library is
near-empty (<50), matching music's small-DB behavior.
- Deep scan gains music's 50% safety threshold: if removal would wipe >50% of a
>100-row library, it skips (assumes a partial server response, not a real
emptying) — prevents catastrophic deletion.
- Full Refresh already matched (re-read all, upsert, no removal).
Added DB helpers (server_ids, table_count). Tests: early-stop skips known,
small-lib fallback, 50% prune safety. 122 tests green.
The scan tool now behaves like music's, not just looks like it:
- Card matches: help '?' button, 'Last Scan' line, and the Movies/Shows/
Episodes/Size stats grid (populated from /api/video/dashboard on show + after
a scan). Same .tool-card-stats markup.
- Real progress bar: scanner fetches item totals up front (Plex section.
totalSize / Jellyfin TotalRecordCount) and reports a true percent as it
processes; the bar actually moves (movies → shows) instead of sitting at 100%.
- Cancel: the Scan button toggles to 'Cancel' mid-scan and POSTs
/api/video/scan/stop; the scanner checks a cancel flag between items and ends
in a 'cancelled' state. Mirrors music's stop affordance.
Tests: percent reported, cancel stops midway + saves only processed items, stop
route registered, tool-card structure. 117 video/integrity tests green.
Rebuilt the Library page to reuse the music library's exact look — no
reinvention, just new data:
- Same classes: .library-container, .library-artist-card grid, .alphabet-
selector, .library-search-input, loading/empty states. Movies/Shows tab pill
is the only video-specific bit.
- Real posters via a server-side proxy: GET /api/video/poster/<kind>/<id>
streams the Plex/Jellyfin artwork (token stays server-side); cards fall back
to an emoji on miss. list_movies/list_shows now expose has_poster (no raw
server paths leaked).
- Client-side search + A-Z letter filter (article-aware) over the loaded set;
cards are divs (not clickable yet, per request). Scan button in the header
reuses the shared scan controller and reloads on done.
110 tests green.
Standardized the TMDB/TVDB placeholders to the same .api-service-frame
.stg-service accordion markup as every music API service (header +
toggleStgService accordion + body with API Key field + callback-info), plus the
same 'Expand All' header. No bespoke structure. Reuses the existing accordion
handlers (already defined, integrity test green).
On the video side the API Configuration section (Spotify/Tidal/Deezer/etc.) is
all music — hidden now (group marked data-music-only). In its place, a video API
Configuration group (data-video-only) with disabled TMDB + TVDB placeholders for
the metadata sources we'll likely use. Music side unchanged.
Video side was showing both the Music Library selector and the new Movies/TV
selectors. The music-library picker is irrelevant there (the Movies/TV mapping
replaces it), so hide it on the video side — music side is unchanged.
The Movies/TV selectors now save the moment you pick one — same as the music
'Music Library' selector right above them — instead of a separate 'Save
Libraries' button. Removed the button and the copied 'doesn't affect config
file' caption; a small inline status shows 'Saved'.
Right next to music's 'Music Library' selector, the video side now shows
'Movies Library' + 'TV Shows Library' dropdowns (data-video-only, hidden on the
music side). video-settings.js populates them from /api/video/libraries when
Settings opens on the video side and saves the choice back; the scanner then
reads only those libraries. Isolated IIFE, data-attr wired. 83 tests green.
The scan no longer blindly grabs every movie/show section — it reads the
libraries you map, like music's 'pick your Music library'.
- GET /api/video/libraries: discover the active server's Movies/TV libraries
(Plex sections by type / Jellyfin views by CollectionType) + current
selection. POST: save {movies, tv} per server into video_settings.
- sources.py: _build_source(movies_lib, tv_lib) filters to the mapped library;
get_active_video_source() (used by the scanner) loads the saved selection;
list_video_libraries() lists them unfiltered for the UI. Falls back to all
libraries when nothing is mapped yet.
- VideoDatabase.get/set_library_selection (per-server). 6 tests added; 33 green.
Video Settings was a 'coming soon' placeholder. Now it reuses the actual
#settings-page, shown identically for now (no hiding of music-only bits yet) —
the foundation for adding the Movies/TV library mapping next.
- video-side.js: SHARED_PAGES maps video-settings -> the music 'settings' page;
showPage sets body[data-video-page] and triggers the shared loadPageData
loader (same init music navigation uses) instead of a video subpage.
- CSS reveals #settings-page (and hides the video host) when
data-side=video + data-video-page=video-settings; id selector outranks the
blanket music-page hide. 81 tests green.
Plex specials/unmatched episodes can have a null index -> getattr(...,0) still
returned None -> 'NOT NULL constraint failed: episodes.episode_number'.
- Plex adapter skips episodes with no index (logged), passes a real number.
- upsert_show_tree defensively skips any episode missing season/episode number,
so no source can crash a scan. Test added.
The visuals were off because I'd invented CSS/markup instead of reusing the
shared design system. Fixed to match music exactly:
- Dashboard Library card now uses music's full markup — header icon, Refresh/
Deep Scan buttons WITH their icons, and stat rows with icons (movies/shows/
episodes/disk). Same .library-status-* classes, no custom CSS.
- Tools 'Library Scan' card now mirrors the music Database Updater: a mode
dropdown (Incremental/Full Refresh/Deep Scan) + one Scan button inside
.tool-card-controls + the standard progress bar. Styling comes for free from
the generic music classes.
- Dropped bespoke .video-tool-btn/.video-scan-controls CSS and folded the
separate video-tools.js into the shared video-scan.js (one fewer file). JS
stays isolated only because it must hit /api/video + update video DOM.
110 tests green.
- New Tools page (video nav + subpage, mirrors music tools styling): a Library
Scan tool card with Incremental / Full Refresh / Deep Scan buttons + a live
status line. Room for more maintenance jobs later.
- Dashboard Library card now has Refresh (full) + Deep Scan buttons, like the
music dashboard.
- Shared video-scan.js controller: one place triggers + polls scans for all
surfaces (wires any [data-video-scan-mode]/[data-video-scan]); emits
soulsync:video-scan-progress/done. Library/Tools/Dashboard just listen — no
duplicated fetch/poll. video-library.js refactored onto it; dashboard reloads
stats on scan-done.
- All isolated IIFEs, data-attr wired (no inline onclick). video-tools added to
the nav (13 pages). 110 tests green.
Mirrors the music model (full_refresh vs smart incremental, plus deep_scan):
- incremental: only recently-added items from the server (Plex addedAt:desc /
Jellyfin DateCreated, capped); upsert; no prune.
- full: every item; upsert all (refresh metadata + add new); no prune.
- deep: every item; upsert; prune what the server no longer has (empty-scan
safety preserved).
scanner.request_scan/scan_sync take mode; /api/video/scan/request reads
{mode} from the body (default full); adapters take incremental=. Tests cover
deep-prunes / full-doesn't / empty-deep-safety / incremental-requests-recent.
- GET /api/video/library -> {movies, shows} from video.db (VideoDatabase.
list_movies/list_shows; shows carry episode_count + owned_count).
- Library page (video-library subpage, isolated video-library.js): tabbed
Movies/Shows grid of poster cards, count, empty-state. A 'Scan Library'
button POSTs /api/video/scan/request then polls /api/video/scan/status,
showing live phase/counts, and refreshes the grid when done.
- Reuses the music dashboard-header chrome (icon title, sweep hidden) + the
watchlist-button styling for the scan button; video-card grid styles added.
- All data-attr wired (no inline onclick); module is an isolated IIFE that
listens for soulsync:video-page-shown. 105 tests green.
Now: video.db -> scanner -> /api/video -> live dashboard + Library page, all
isolated from music. Scanner adapters await live Plex/Jellyfin validation.
Reads the active media server and mirrors it into video.db, adapting the music
scan pattern (ask the server, upsert, prune what's gone) — isolated from music.
- core/video/scanner.py: server-agnostic VideoLibraryScanner. Consumes a media
source (duck-typed) yielding normalized dicts; upserts movies + show trees,
prunes removed items, reports progress/state. Skips pruning when a scan
returns nothing (transient-failure safety). Background thread + scan_sync.
- core/video/sources.py: Plex + Jellyfin adapters that REUSE the shared
connected clients (MediaServerEngine) but own all video-section logic; produce
normalized dicts. (Validated against a live server by design; scanner itself
is fully unit-tested with a fake source.)
- api/video/scan.py: POST /api/video/scan/request, GET /api/video/scan/status.
- .gitignore: video_library.db + sidecars (mirrors music); tests inject a
tmp DB so none is ever created in the repo.
Tests: scan populate/prune/empty-safety/no-source-error, isolation guard
(core/video imports nothing from music), scan routes registered. 101 green.
Server (Plex/Jellyfin) is the source of truth, so every scanned row carries
(server_source, server_id) for upsert + stale-removal — mirroring how music
keys on server_source + ratingKey.
- schema: server_source/server_id columns on movies/shows/episodes (+ server_id
on seasons); unique (server_source,server_id) on movies/shows (multiple NULLs
allowed so wishlist rows never block).
- VideoDatabase.upsert_movie / upsert_show_tree: take normalized, server-
agnostic dicts (a Plex/Jellyfin adapter produces them — DB never touches a
media SDK), set has_file + media_files, and prune episodes/seasons the server
no longer reports.
- prune_missing(): removes top-level movies/shows the scan didn't see (cascades
clean children).
6 new tests (insert/update/file-replace, season/episode build+prune, top-level
prune); 18 video-DB tests green.
First wire from video.db -> UI, kettui-style.
- api/video/ : isolated Flask blueprint (registered at /api/video with one
additive line in web_server.py). Reads only video.db; imports nothing from
the music API or DB.
- GET /api/video/dashboard -> VideoDatabase.dashboard_stats(): live library/
download/watchlist/wishlist counts (real 0s on an empty DB).
- video-dashboard.js now fetches it and fills the stat cards + Watchlist/
Wishlist header badges (formatted bytes/speed); falls back to zeros on error.
uptime/memory stay at markup defaults for now (not video-domain).
- Tests: dashboard_stats counts (empty + populated), endpoint returns zeroed
JSON via a Flask test client, blueprint exposes the route, and the video API
imports nothing from music. 93 video/integrity tests green.
Separate SQLite file (database/video_library.db, env VIDEO_DATABASE_PATH),
fully disconnected from music — never imported by music, imports nothing from
music, no shared write lock.
Schema (database/video_schema.sql), designed to dodge the music DB's known
pain points:
- movies; shows->seasons->episodes; channels->channel_videos (YouTube as a
first-class peer); media_files (the library); downloads (queue+history);
activity feed; root_folders / quality_profiles / video_settings config.
- No polymorphic ids: media_files/downloads use separate nullable FKs + a CHECK
that exactly one owner is set; real cascades.
- Explicit external-id columns (tmdb/tvdb/imdb/youtube), no source-id blob.
- Watchlist/Wishlist/Calendar are DERIVED VIEWS over monitored + file state
(single source of truth, can't drift like music's wishlist table did).
VideoDatabase mirrors music's conventions (WAL, foreign_keys ON, 30s busy
timeout, Row factory, once-per-process init, user_version backstop) but is an
independent implementation. 13 seam tests: schema builds, CHECK constraints
reject bad rows, cascades fire, views return correct membership, KV roundtrips,
and a guard that the module imports nothing from music.
Pointless until the real enrichment workers exist. Header keeps the icon
title, subtitle, Watchlist/Wishlist quick-nav and (hidden) sweep; the worker
button row will land later, matching music.
The video dashboard header now mirrors music's: icon + shimmer title,
subtitle, the Watchlist/Wishlist quick-nav (top-right), and the action-button
row. Differences, all isolated:
- Sweep band kept in markup but hidden on the video side (no animation for
now; meta-source-driven equivalent may return later).
- Quick-nav reuses .watchlist-button/.wishlist-button styling but carries NO
music IDs (no duplicate IDs, no music-JS binding) — navigates to the video
Watchlist/Wishlist pages via data-video-goto.
- header-actions holds disabled TMDB/TVDB/Trakt/OMDb placeholder chips
(.video-meta-button) standing in for music's enrichment buttons until the
video meta sources are wired.
No inline onclick; 75 tests green.
Real first video page, reusing music's .dash-grid/.dash-card CSS for an
identical look — but every value is driven by isolated video JS, no music
code referenced.
Sections mirror the music dashboard, adapted:
- Service Status: Media Server / Download Client / Metadata Source
- System Stats: swaps 'Active Syncs' -> 'Disk Usage'; keeps download/speed/
uptime/memory
- Library: Movies / Shows / Episodes / Disk Size
- Recent Syncs -> Recent Downloads (empty state for now)
- Quick Actions: Add Movie/Show, Watchlist, Downloads (navigate via
data-video-goto)
- Recent Activity
- No enrichment section, no header sweep animation (per plan)
Mechanics:
- #video-page-host now holds .video-subpage sections; controller toggles one
at a time and falls back to #video-placeholder-slot for unbuilt pages.
- video-side.js dispatches soulsync:video-page-shown; video-dashboard.js (new
isolated IIFE) listens and applies a zeroed STUB until video.db exists.
Single seam to swap for a real /api/video/dashboard fetch later.
- All wiring via data-attrs + addEventListener; no inline onclick (keeps the
script-split integrity contract intact). 73 tests green.
Completes the Watchlist+Wishlist pair (same as music). Watchlist monitors
shows/channels for new content; Wishlist is the wanted/missing queue
(movies, one-offs, failed grabs to retry). Placeholder for now.
Following (Watchlist) and the download queue (Downloads) are core to a
movies/TV/YouTube manager — same names as music so they read intuitively.
Both wired via data-video-page (no inline onclick); placeholder for now.
First slice of the video side, on the experimental branch. Purely additive and
fully isolated from music:
- A Music | Video toggle in the sidebar header; clicking flips body[data-side]
(remembered in localStorage). The shared shell (logo, user, Support, Version)
stays; only the nav set + subtitle swap.
- A second sidebar nav (.video-nav) with the video pages — Dashboard, Search,
Discover, Library, Calendar, Import, Settings, Issues, Help & Docs — shown via
CSS off body[data-side]. Service Status is hidden on the video side.
- A placeholder content host; real video pages land later.
Isolation contract held: index.html is +51/-0 (no music markup changed), music
JS/CSS untouched, nothing in music references the controller. The controller
(webui/static/video/video-side.js) is a self-contained IIFE wired purely via
addEventListener (no globals, no inline onclick) — so it can't affect music and
doesn't trip the script-split-integrity contract.
Tests: 6 video-shell structural/isolation tests + 64 script-integrity green.
The Deezer ARL field round-trips a redaction sentinel for a saved-but-untouched
secret (shown as dots). The save path already guards against the sentinel
overwriting the real token (ConfigManager.set), so the ARL was never actually
lost — but the connection TEST read the field value and sent the sentinel as the
token, so Deezer returned USER_ID=0 ('Invalid ARL token') after navigating away
and back. That false failure made it look like the ARL kept resetting.
Fix:
- ConfigManager.resolve_secret(key, posted): empty/sentinel posted value -> the
stored value; a real string -> a genuine new secret. Reusable for any secret
connection-test (single source of truth).
- /api/deezer-download/test now resolves the effective ARL via resolve_secret, so
an untouched field tests the stored token.
- testDeezerDownloadConnection() strips the sentinel before sending (untouched ->
empty -> backend uses the saved token).
Seam/regression tests for resolve_secret (sentinel/empty/none -> stored, real ->
passthrough, nothing stored -> empty). JS integrity 64 green.
