Adding a soundtrack or compilation album to wishlist was creating
separate wishlist entries per track artist (e.g. Persona 3 OST split
into ATLUS Sound Team/Lotus Juice/Azumi Takahashi). Now uses the
album-level artist when available so all tracks stay grouped as one
album. Per-track artist resolution only applies to playlists where
there's no album context.
Some metadata APIs return fewer or no results for all-lowercase
queries. Title-case the query when it's all lowercase before
sending to the API ("foreigner" → "Foreigner"). Mixed-case input
is left as-is. Confidence scoring still uses the original query.
Fixed 5 critical gaps in the download orchestrator where lidarr was
missing from client loops: get_all_downloads, get_download_status,
cancel_download fallback, clear_all_completed_downloads, and
cancel_all_downloads. Without these, lidarr downloads were invisible
to the UI, couldn't be cancelled, and accumulated in memory.
Also: error messages now visible in download list (appended to
filename on error state), removed "(Development)" label from UI.
- Stop passing in spotify_id as the id in the UI, use the actual db id instead
- Fixes an issue where albums for another artist would end up being returned for the actual searched artist
- Remove the redundant artist_id filtering code
- Fixes an issue where not-currently-owned albums would be filtered out from the results, even if they were successfully fetched from the configured metadata provider
M3U files were generated when the download batch completed but
before post-processing finished tagging and moving files. Paths
pointed to download locations instead of final library paths,
making every track show as missing. Now regenerates the M3U from
the backend batch completion handler after all post-processing
is guaranteed done, resolving real file paths from the library DB.
Skips overwrite if zero tracks resolve to avoid replacing a
partially-good M3U with an all-missing one.
The retag fix for AcoustID mismatches was only updating the DB
record (title, artist_id) without writing corrected tags to the
actual audio file. Users would click Fix, the finding disappeared,
but the file on disk stayed unchanged. Now writes title and artist
tags to the file via Mutagen after the DB update.
Also fixed artist INSERT missing server_source when creating a new
artist during retag — now uses the active media server value.
Auto-wishlist albums cycle was passing is_album=True to
_get_batch_max_concurrent which returns 1 for soulseek mode.
This restriction is for folder-based album grabs from a single
peer, not individual track downloads. Wishlist always does
single-track downloads regardless of cycle, so it should use
the user's configured concurrency setting.
_adlFetch() fetches /api/downloads/all?limit=300 then _adlUpdateBadge()
was counting active statuses from that truncated array, overwriting
the real server-side count maintained by WebSocket. Removed the
badge update from _adlFetch — the WebSocket status push already
keeps it accurate.
Fix modal results: sort standard album versions above live, remix,
cover, soundtrack, remaster, and deluxe variants so users see the
original studio track first instead of obscure versions.
Plex Find & Add: tracks were always appended to the end of the
playlist because addItems ignores position. Now moves the track
to the correct slot after adding via moveItem.
Discovery Fix modal search results now sort standard album versions
above live recordings, remixes, covers, soundtracks, remasters,
deluxe editions, and other variants. Fixes cases where searching
"Mother Danzig" returned a live version first, or "Even Flow Pearl
Jam" returned a soundtrack instead of the original from Ten.
Unmatch: found tracks in playlist discovery now have a red X button
to remove bad matches. Clears match data, sets back to Not Found,
persists in DB for mirrored playlists, and respects user choice on
re-discovery runs (won't re-match automatically).
Video naming: new path template in Settings with $artist, $title,
$artistletter, $year variables. Default unchanged ($artist/$title-video)
so existing Plex setups aren't affected.
slskd logs: Clean Search History automation skips when Soulseek is
not the active download source, eliminating connection error spam.
Video naming: new path template in Settings → Paths & Organization
with $artist, $artistletter, $title, $year variables. Default
unchanged ($artist/$title-video → Artist/Title-video.mp4) so
existing Plex setups aren't affected. Users can remove the -video
suffix or reorganize however they like.
slskd logs: the Clean Search History automation now skips when
Soulseek is not the active download source, eliminating noisy
connection error logs for users who don't use Soulseek.
When playlist discovery fails to match a track on any metadata API,
instead of marking it "Not Found" and excluding it from downloads,
automatically build stub metadata from the raw source title/artist
and include it in the download queue. Soulseek searches with the
raw data, post-processing enhances whatever it can find.
All 7 discovery workers updated: YouTube, ListenBrainz, Tidal,
Deezer, Spotify Public, Beatport, and automated mirrored playlists.
Amber "Wing It" badge distinguishes stubs from real API matches.
Fix button still available so users can manually find a proper match.
Wing It stubs persist in DB for mirrored playlists and are
re-attempted on future discovery runs. Failed wing-it downloads
skip wishlist per-track (checked by wing_it_ ID prefix) so real
matched failures in the same batch still go to wishlist normally.
soul_id.startsWith() threw TypeError for non-string values, crashing
the entire card rendering pipeline. Letter-specific filters worked
because the problematic artist wasn't in those filtered results.
Added String() wrapper on all 3 soul_id.startsWith calls and a
try-catch around individual card rendering so one bad card can't
take down the whole page.
- Flask catch-all route serves index.html for client-side paths, excluding api/static/auth/callback/status prefixes.- navigateToPage pushes history state so URL reflects current page.- popstate listener handles browser back/forward without reloading.- Initial load reads window.location to restore the page after refresh or direct link.- artist-detail and playlist-explorer fall back to parent pages since they need runtime context.
- move artist-detail discography resolution onto the shared source-priority metadata service
- keep the variant dedup helper in the UI-facing adapter
- pass the chosen source through completion checks
- add coverage for the new adapter and dedup behavior
Move completion checks into metadata_service and make them follow the configured metadata source priority.
Drop the old test-mode path, remove the web_server wrapper indirection, and keep artist inference on explicit release metadata instead of guessing from a track search.
Add coverage for the source-priority completion behavior and the safer artist-name handling.
- Fix level filter showing nothing: now uses heuristic classification
for print() output (error/traceback/failed→ERROR, warn→WARNING, etc.)
in addition to exact logger format matching
- Speed up WebSocket updates from 2s to 0.5s polling
- Add search box with 300ms debounce — filters both initial load and live
- Use DocumentFragment for batch DOM appends (performance)
- Increase line cap from 1000 to 2000
- Backend search parameter support in /api/logs/tail
Terminal-style real-time log viewer with:
- Log file selector (app, post-processing, acoustid, source reuse)
- Color-coded log levels (DEBUG gray, INFO blue, WARNING yellow, ERROR red)
- Level filter buttons (All/Debug/Info/Warn/Error)
- Auto-scroll with toggle, copy and clear buttons
- Live updates via WebSocket (2s polling, pushes new lines)
- Initial load fetches last 200 lines via REST API
- 1000-line display cap with oldest lines trimmed
Also fixes Advanced tab settings (Discovery Pool, Security, etc.) being
hidden inside collapsed Library Preferences section body — misplaced
closing div caused them to be invisible.
The close button and backdrop click handlers were only attached when
the Tools page was visited (initializeToolHelpButtons). Automation
builder '?' buttons open the same modal but the close handlers were
never set up. Added inline onclick handlers to the modal HTML and a
global Escape key listener so closing works from any page.
Your Albums cards on the Discover page were using the YouTube/playlist
modal (openDownloadMissingModalForYouTube) instead of the album modal
(openDownloadMissingModalForArtistAlbum). Now displays with proper
album hero section and uses album download context for file organization.
New toggle in Settings → Library → Post-Processing: "Apply ReplayGain
tags after download". When enabled, analyzes loudness via ffmpeg's
ebur128 filter and writes track-level ReplayGain gain/peak tags.
Runs after metadata tagging but before lossy copy so both files get
the tags. Off by default — adds a few seconds per track.
Applied to both album and playlist/single download paths.
New core/genre_filter.py with ~180 curated default genres. When strict
mode is enabled in Settings → Library Preferences → Genre Whitelist,
only whitelisted genres pass through during enrichment. Junk tags from
Last.fm (artist names, radio shows, playlist names) are silently dropped.
Applied at all 10 genre write points: Spotify, Last.fm, AudioDB, Deezer,
Discogs, iTunes, Qobuz enrichment workers + post-processing genre merge
+ initial download artist/album creation.
Strict mode is OFF by default — zero behavior change for existing users.
First enable auto-populates the whitelist with defaults. Users can add,
remove, search, and reset genres via the Settings UI.
When clicking a track in enhanced or global search, the download modal
correctly showed SINGLE but the download used is_album_download=true,
causing the file to be organized under the album path template instead
of the singles template. Now enhanced_search_track_ and gsearch_track_
prefixes pass album metadata for tagging but set is_album_download=false.
The source detection chain for playlist hero sections didn't handle
the 'spotify:liked-songs' playlist ID prefix, falling through to the
default 'YouTube' label. Added 'spotify:' prefix check.
Dashboard scan polling checked for 'completed' but backend sets 'finished'.
Added 'finished' to the completion check so polling stops, button resets,
stats refresh, and toast fires correctly. Also fixed deep scan reporting
stale record removals as 'failed' instead of 'successful'.
The disabled path field on the Connections tab was showing stale data
(always ./Transfer) because it read from the DOM before settings loaded.
Removed it entirely — the output path is configured on the Downloads tab.
Standalone section now just shows description + verify button.
Non-active tab groups were visible during async data loading because
switchSettingsTab ran after the awaits. Moved it before async calls and
added CSS defaults to hide non-connections groups, preventing any flash.
All user-facing labels, docs, help text, tooltips, error messages, and debug
info output updated. Backend config keys, variable names, actual path values,
and Docker volume mounts are completely unchanged — zero functional impact.
Users can now override which metadata provider (Spotify, Deezer, Apple Music,
Discogs) is used when scanning a specific watchlist artist for new releases.
The selector appears in the artist config modal and only shows sources the
artist has enrichment IDs for. Default behavior is unchanged — all artists
use the global metadata source unless explicitly overridden.
"Sync This Playlist" buttons in YouTube/Tidal/Deezer/Spotify/Beatport/
ListenBrainz discovery modals were not gated by _isSoulsyncStandalone.
Added check to the hasSpotifyMatches condition that generates them.
The Sync page was hidden entirely for standalone users, blocking
access to playlist browsing, discovery, and downloads. Now the page
is accessible — only the sync-to-server buttons are hidden since
there's no server to push playlists to.
openDownloadMissingModal showed loading overlay but didn't hide it
on error paths (playlist not found, fetch failure). The overlay
persisted across page navigation, blocking the entire UI.
Three collapsible categories, collapsed by default:
- Paths & Organization (file templates + music library paths)
- Post-Processing (metadata, tags, conversion, lyrics)
- Library Preferences (import, content filter, stats, playlists, M3U)
Section headers have data-stg=library so they only appear on the
Library tab. Bolder headers with accent-colored arrows and subtle
border. Collapse state preserved when switching settings tabs.
Delay alternate-source fan-out until the primary enhanced-search response arrives, and stagger those follow-up requests so they do not all compete at once. Also parallelize artist, album, and track lookups inside each metadata source request to shorten the time the UI thread spends waiting on remote APIs. This keeps the single-worker web UI more responsive under the app's chatty search flow.
New MusicBrainz tab in Enhanced and Global search — finds tracks and
albums on MusicBrainz's community database with Cover Art Archive
images. Covers obscure tracks that Spotify/Deezer/iTunes miss.
- core/musicbrainz_search.py: search adapter with Track/Artist/Album
dataclasses, Cover Art Archive integration, smart query parsing
- Albums deduplicated (keeps best version with date and art)
- No artist results shown (MusicBrainz has no artist images)
- Album detail with full tracklist for download modal
- Smart word-boundary splitting for queries without separators
- Global search results container widened from 620px to 920px
- UI version bumped to 2.32
SoulSync Standalone Library is now the first section in both the
version modal and What's New popup. Auto-Import section updated with
all improvements (recursive scan, singles, tag preference, AcoustID).
New Downloads & Soulseek section groups download-related improvements.
Recent Fixes cleaned up — feature items moved to proper sections.
All sync-related buttons hidden when active server is SoulSync
Standalone. Covers static buttons (querySelectorAll on status update)
and dynamic modal buttons (_isSoulsyncStandalone flag).
UI version bumped to 2.31 (Docker stays at 2.3).
No media server to sync playlists to — sync page is irrelevant.
M3U generation is still available via settings toggle and download
modal buttons for standalone users who want playlist files.
Fourth server option on the Connections tab with SoulSync logo and
'Standalone' label. Config panel shows Transfer folder path and
Verify Folder button. Test connection counts audio files in the
Transfer folder. Settings save/load properly detects soulsync toggle.
Race condition: scanner re-scanned folders while post-processing was
still moving files, causing partial matches and ghost failures. Now
tracks in-progress paths and skips them on subsequent scans.
Coverage penalty fix: individual tracks that match at 80%+ confidence
now auto-import even when overall album coverage is low (e.g. 2 of 18
tracks present). Previously low coverage killed the entire import.
Import page: stats bar, filter pills, Scan Now, Approve All, Clear
History (clears imported + failed), live scan progress.
- Track numbers defaulted to 1 instead of using metadata source values
- Release dates not captured, causing missing year in path templates
- Cover art missing for Deezer (direct image_url not checked)
- Track names in expanded view showed Unknown (wrong JSON field name)
- Read year/date from embedded file tags as fallback
- Add Deezer get_album_metadata/get_album_tracks fallbacks
- Handle Deezer tracks.data response format
Toggle appeared off when running because CSS :checked rules were
scoped to .repair-master-toggle. Added auto-import-toggle-label
selectors. Refresh now re-renders whichever tab is active.
Toggle state was set by browser click, then immediately overwritten by
the status reload callback. Now optimistically sets the toggle and
status text before the API call, reverting only on failure.
Album delete now shows a smart delete dialog with two options:
- Remove from Library (DB only, files untouched)
- Delete Files Too (removes DB records AND deletes audio files from
disk, cleans up empty album folder)
Backend /api/library/album/<id> DELETE now accepts ?delete_files=true
parameter, resolves each track's file path, and removes files before
deleting DB records. Reports files_deleted and files_failed counts.
autoSavePlaylistM3U was called on every 2-second poll cycle once any
track completed, flooding the server with heavyweight M3U generation
requests (fuzzy matching all tracks against the DB). This exhausted
Flask's thread pool, causing the batch status endpoint to hang and
killing the poller — making the modal freeze mid-download.
Now fires once when the batch completes instead of on every poll.
- Include completed batches in poll cycle so late task updates still
render (prevents modal freezing when batch completes before all rows
update)
- Require server to report no active tasks before client-side
completion fires (prevents phase=complete from prematurely ending UI)
- Apply same fix to backoff poller and WebSocket resubscription
Note: modal stalling issue persists — setInterval stops firing after
~12 cycles for unknown reasons. Needs deeper browser-level debugging.
The global download poller was disabled when WebSocket was connected,
but WebSocket connections can silently stop delivering messages without
triggering a disconnect event (room subscription lost, server emit
error, proxy timeout). This left modals frozen while downloads
continued server-side. Removing the socketConnected gate ensures the
2-second HTTP poll always runs as a fallback alongside WebSocket.
When adding tracks to wishlist from a playlist download modal,
process.artist was undefined (only set for album downloads) and
defaulted to {name: 'Unknown Artist'}. This got stored in
source_info.artist_name and was prioritized over the track's own
artist data during wishlist download post-processing.
Now resolves the artist per-track from the track's own artists array,
falling back to the process-level artist only for album downloads
where it's actually set correctly.
Soulseek results from "Various Artists", "VA", "Unknown Artist", and
"Unknown Album" folders are now rejected before scoring. These
compilation folders rarely contain properly tagged files for the target
artist.
Clearing the wishlist now also cancels any active wishlist download
batch and resets the auto-processing flag, so downloads don't keep
running after the source tracks are removed.
Split Downloads page into main list (left) and batch panel (right).
Each active batch gets a color-coded card with artwork thumbnail,
progress bar, per-track status with download percentages, and
expandable track list. Download rows get matching color indicators.
- Click batch name to open its download/wishlist modal
- Filter icon narrows main list to one batch with clear banner
- Collapsible panel toggle for full-width list view
- Completed batches fade out after 15 seconds
- 7-day batch history with source type color dots
- Artwork fallback shows colored initial when no art available
- Per-track progress: download %, spinner for searching, proc label
- source_page column on sync_history for UI origin tracking
- /api/downloads/all includes batch summaries and per-track progress
- /api/downloads/batch-history endpoint for history queries
- Responsive layout, overflow-x hidden to prevent scroll flicker
Clicking the Download Wishlist button while auto-processing was active
only showed a toast telling the user to check the Downloads page. Now
navigates there directly so progress is immediately visible.
Priority 0 query (artist + album + title) was gated behind a download
mode check that excluded Soulseek, the source that benefits most from
it. Soulseek searches match against file paths where users organize as
Artist/Album/Track — without the album name, ambiguous artist names
could match wrong-artist results (e.g. "Bleakness" as an album folder
instead of an artist). Removed the mode gate so all sources get the
most specific query first.
Dashboard stats (every 10s) and download status endpoint were
unconditionally calling slskd transfers/downloads API, causing
connection timeout spam for users with a slskd URL configured but
using YouTube/Tidal/etc as their download source. Now checks both
download source mode and status cache before making the API call.
Adds April 17 entries for Auto-Import, Wishlist Nebula, automation group
management, bidirectional artist sync, provider-agnostic discovery, live
sidebar badges, and critical source ID embedding fix. Version modal
reorganized to lead with current features and summarize earlier v2.2 work.
Full auto-import pipeline: background worker watches the staging folder,
identifies music using embedded tags → folder name parsing → AcoustID
fingerprinting, matches files to metadata source tracklists, and
processes high-confidence matches through the existing post-processing
pipeline automatically.
Worker: AutoImportWorker with start/stop/pause/resume, configurable
scan interval (default 60s), confidence threshold (default 90%), and
auto-process toggle. Processes one folder per cycle, alphabetical
order. Disc folder detection, stability checking, content hash dedup.
Confidence gate: 90%+ auto-processes silently, 70-90% queued as
pending review with approve/dismiss actions, <70% flagged for manual
identification. Track matching uses weighted algorithm (title 45%,
artist 15%, track number 30%, album tag 10%).
Database: auto_import_history table tracks every scan result with
folder hash, match data JSON, confidence, status, timestamps.
API: 7 endpoints — status, toggle, settings (GET/POST), results
(filtered/paginated), approve, reject.
UI: Auto tab on Import page with enable toggle, confidence slider,
scan interval selector. Live result cards with album art, confidence
bar (green/yellow/red), status badges, match stats. 5-second polling.
Server Playlists tab now displays ALL playlists from the media server,
split into two sections: Synced Playlists (with mirrored/history match,
full opacity, "Synced" badge, "Open Editor" action) and Other Server
Playlists (everything else, dimmed at 70%, "View Tracks" action). Both
sections have header with icon, title, and count. Unsynced cards fade
to full opacity on hover.
Artist Sync button on enhanced library page now does true bidirectional
sync: Phase 1 pulls new albums/tracks from the media server using the
DatabaseUpdateWorker in deep scan mode (preserves enrichment), Phase 2
removes stale DB entries for files no longer on disk. Works for Plex,
Jellyfin, and Navidrome. Toast shows +albums, +tracks, -stale counts.
Repair jobs tab redesigned: 2-column grid layout with glass gradient
cards, accent top line on hover, hover lift effect, job description
text below name, running state with pulsing accent bar. Responsive
to single column under 900px.
Fixed deezer_artist_id → deezer_id column name on artists table lookup.
Watchlist scanner: empty discography (no new releases in lookback) was
treated as API failure, causing "Failed to get artist discography" for
artists like Kendrick Lamar who simply had no recent releases. Now
distinguishes None (API failure → try next source) from [] (success,
no new tracks). Spotify backfill now uses the authenticated client
instance instead of creating a fresh unauthenticated one.
Wishlist nebula: album remove now sends album_name (API updated to
accept album_name as fallback alongside album_id). Track remove
re-renders the nebula after deletion. Toned down processing pulse
animation.
Updated test to verify fallback triggers on API failure (None), not
on empty results.
Expanded albums: click album tile to reveal track list with per-track
remove buttons. Art shrinks to banner, title/count move to static
position, tracks scroll at 200px max-height. Handles many albums with
flex-wrap and align-items: flex-start.
Expanded singles: visible labels below 44px art circles, remove button
on hover. No longer tooltip-only.
Live processing: polls wishlist stats every 5s, detects auto-processing
and manual download batches. Orbs pulse with accent glow during active
processing. Nebula auto-refreshes when tracks complete (count decreases).
Polling stops on page navigation.
Download flow: single "Download Wishlist" button opens category choice
dialog (Albums/Singles with counts). If processing is already active,
shows toast or reopens existing download modal. Toned down processing
pulse animation (3s cycle, scale 1.03, brightness 1.1).
Eight visual upgrades to the wishlist nebula:
1. Watchlist artist photos used for orb images (cross-referenced via API)
2. Hover tooltip with artist name and track count
3. Pulse animation on orbs when their category is next in auto-processing
4. Album art ring — tiny covers orbit each orb in a slow spinning ring
5. Staggered entry animation — orbs fade in and float up on page load
6. Click artist name to navigate to Artists page with search pre-filled
7. Improved label styling with accent color hover + underline
8. Responsive art ring sizing per orb size class
Bespoke wishlist page design: each artist is a glowing orb sized by
track count (sm/md/lg), with a spinning conic gradient ring colored by
artist name hash. Click to expand — albums appear as satellite rows
with cover art, singles as compact pills. Remove buttons on hover at
every level (album, single track).
Search bar filters orbs in real-time. Download Albums/Singles buttons
trigger the existing category download flow. Orbs sorted by track count
(biggest artists first). Responsive layout with mobile breakpoints.
The active-process check could hang or return stale data, making the
button feel unresponsive. Added 2-second timeout with AbortController,
fast path for already-visible client process, and graceful fallback to
navigateToPage on rehydration failure or timeout.
Added z-index: 10 to .dashboard-header to elevate its stacking context
above the dashboard content sections. Bumped all 13 worker orb tooltip
z-index values from 1000 to 5000. The tooltips now render above section
headers when they drop downward from the header into the content area.
Full automation page upgrade with group management and drag-and-drop:
Backend: batch_update_group() and bulk_set_enabled() DB methods, new
PUT /api/automations/group and POST /api/automations/bulk-toggle endpoints.
Group headers: rename (inline edit), delete (choice dialog — keep
automations or delete all), bulk toggle (enable/disable all in group).
Actions appear on hover, styled as small icon buttons.
Drag and drop: non-system cards are draggable between group sections.
Drop zones show dashed accent border feedback. Collapsed sections
auto-expand on 500ms drag-hover. System/Hub sections dimmed during drag.
dragenter counter pattern handles child element bubbling.
Delete group dialog: glass card modal with three options — keep
automations (move to My Automations), delete everything, or cancel.
Sidebar nav badges now update from HTTP polling (every 10s), WebSocket
pushes, and page init — counts stay current regardless of which page
the user is on. Wishlist icon changed from music note to star in both
sidebar and page title to distinguish from Artists page.
Worker orbs now centered across the full header width instead of
right-aligned. Watchlist/Wishlist buttons moved to absolute top-right
corner in their own container, preventing tooltip overflow from pushing
them to a second line. Import button removed from header (accessible
via sidebar).
Responsive: at 900px quick-nav drops to static full-width row, worker
orb tooltips hidden on mobile (status visible via orb color/spinner,
details on Tools page). At 768px everything stacks vertically.
Adaptive card on the Dashboard showing library state with four modes:
- No server: gold accent, directs to Settings
- Disconnected: gold warning with troubleshooting guidance
- Empty library: blue accent with prominent Scan Now button
- Healthy: green accent with stats grid (artists/albums/tracks/DB size),
Refresh button (incremental) and Deep Scan button (full re-check)
Stats displayed as mini cards with individual icons. Animated glow orb,
gradient accent top line, shimmer progress bar during scans. Deep scan
added to /api/database/update endpoint (deep_scan flag) — re-checks
every track, adds new ones, removes stale, preserves enrichment data.
Confirmation dialog explains what deep scan does before starting.
When the DB stored a path the resolver couldn't map to a local file
(common with Navidrome virtual paths or Docker path mismatches), file
deletion was silently skipped — the DB record was removed but the file
stayed on disk with no indication to the user.
Now logs the resolution failure with the stored path, returns a
file_error in the API response, and the frontend shows a warning toast
explaining the file wasn't deleted plus a second toast with the specific
reason (e.g. Navidrome 'Report Real Path' instructions).
Dashboard Tools & Operations section replaced with a compact link card.
All 10 tool cards moved to a dedicated Tools page in the sidebar, grouped
into three sections: Database & Scanning, Metadata & Cache, Management.
Library Maintenance promoted to hero position at the top of the page with
accent top bar, logo, enable toggle, and tabbed content (Jobs, Findings,
History) — no longer buried in a modal. openRepairModal() now navigates
to the Tools page. Repair modal HTML removed.
Tool initialization extracted from loadDashboardData() into a dedicated
initializeToolsPage() with idempotent event listener wiring. Container
sizing updated to use margin: 20px (matching Dashboard/Stats) instead of
max-width: 1400px for consistent full-width appearance across all pages.
Watchlist and Wishlist are now proper sidebar pages with full design
treatment matching the app's established visual language — glass
containers, gradient headers, accent lines, card hover effects.
Watchlist page: artist grid with sort (name/scan date/date added),
search filter, last scan summary strip, live scan activity, batch
selection, all existing sub-modals (artist config, global settings,
artist detail slideout) preserved and working.
Wishlist page: stats strip (album count, singles count, next cycle),
category cards with mosaic backgrounds, track list with inline search
filter, batch operations, download integration. Auto-processing
detection on header button shows download progress modal when active.
Header buttons rewired to navigate to pages. All refresh points updated
to reinitialize pages instead of reopening modals. Timer/polling cleanup
on page navigation. Artist detail overlay converted to fixed positioning.
Recording MBIDs are now pulled from the matched release tracklist instead
of independent match_recording() searches, guaranteeing the recording ID
is consistent with the selected release. Batch-level artist name is used
for release cache keys so all tracks hit the same preflight-cached entry
even when Soulseek metadata spells the artist differently. A post-batch
consistency pass (run_album_consistency) rewrites album-level tags on all
files after the batch completes — the safety net that prevents Navidrome
album splits even when per-track lookups drift.
Two-layer detection: (1) check the Qobuz API response for sample=True
before downloading, and (2) validate actual file duration with mutagen
after download — if under 35 seconds, delete and return None. Qobuz
returns valid audio files for previews (~2-5MB FLAC) that pass the
existing 100KB size check, so duration is the reliable signal.
Artists with an existing spotify_artist_id but NULL spotify_match_status
were fetched by the priority queue every ~3 seconds. _process_artist
returned early (preserving the ID) without marking the status, so the
same artist was re-queued indefinitely — burning CPU and inflating API
call counters. Now marks the artist as 'matched' on the early-return
path.
New POST /api/v1/request endpoint accepts a search query from external
sources (Discord bots, Home Assistant, curl) and triggers the
search-match-download pipeline asynchronously. Returns a request_id
for status polling via GET /api/v1/request/<id>. Optional notify_url
for callback on completion.
Also adds webhook_received trigger type and search_and_download action
type to the automation engine, so users can build custom flows like
"when webhook received → search & download → notify Discord".
Includes info panel in Settings showing endpoint URL and curl example.
The import section appeared twice in the saveSettings object literal —
the second key (staging_path only) silently overwrote the first
(replace_lower_quality). JavaScript uses last-wins for duplicate keys.
Merged into a single import block.
Two bugs: (1) 'wishlist' was missing from the settings save whitelist,
so the toggle silently reset to ON on every page reload. (2) The
wishlist cleanup function unconditionally removed tracks sharing the
same name+artist regardless of album, ignoring the allow_duplicates
setting. Now when allow_duplicates is on, the dedup key includes the
album name so same song from different albums can coexist.
Auth instruction pages and log messages now use the actual configured
callback port instead of hardcoding 8888. Added startup logging that
prints whether SOULSYNC_SPOTIFY/TIDAL_CALLBACK_PORT env vars were
detected, helping diagnose Unraid/Docker env var issues. Also fixes
uses_main_port detection for custom callback ports and moves the
wishlist button handler to global init so it works on all pages.
The `complete` flag from polling responses was never forwarded into the
transformed status object passed to `updateYouTubeDiscoveryModal`, so
the `if (status.complete)` block that swaps the footer from the
'Discovering...' spinner to the Sync / Download Missing buttons never
fired. Fixed for all three affected sources: Tidal, Deezer, and Spotify
Public — both the WebSocket and HTTP polling paths for each.
Explored status was stored only in frontend memory; on reload the badge
disappeared because the API never returned it. Added explored_at column
to mirrored_playlists (auto-migrated), written when build-tree completes,
and read back via SELECT * so the badge survives page refreshes.
Spotify was being called for album/artist data fetching across multiple
background workers and the Artists page search even when the user had
Deezer or iTunes set as their primary metadata source. Being authenticated
for playlist sync was treated as permission to use Spotify for everything.
- watchlist_scanner: add _spotify_is_primary_source() that checks both
auth and primary source config; use it for all album/artist data fetching
(discovery pool, recent album caching, playlist curation, similar artist
ID matching, proactive ID backfill). _spotify_available_for_run() is kept
for sync_spotify_library_cache which must run regardless of primary source
- repair_jobs/metadata_gap_filler: gate Spotify ISRC lookup on primary
source being 'spotify'; MusicBrainz lookup unaffected
- repair_jobs/unknown_artist_fixer: replace hardcoded spotify_client with
source-aware client selection — primary source ID tried first, each ID
matched to its correct client (fixes latent bug passing Deezer IDs to
Spotify)
- web_server.py /api/match/search: Artists page search was hardcoded to
spotify_client.search_artists(); now uses _get_metadata_fallback_client()
so results come from the configured primary source
Adds a new Last.fm Radio section to the Discover page that lets users
search a track on Last.fm, generate a similar-tracks playlist, and run
it through the existing discovery/download/sync pipeline. Also generates
playlists automatically from top listening history during watchlist scans
(max once per week).
- core/lastfm_client.py: Add get_similar_tracks() using track.getsimilar
- core/listenbrainz_manager.py: Add save_lastfm_radio_playlist() with
deterministic MBID (MD5 seed), cleanup limit of 5 for lastfm_radio type
- web_server.py: Add /api/lastfm/configured, /api/lastfm/search/tracks,
/api/lastfm/radio/generate, /api/discover/listenbrainz/lastfm-radio;
fix playlist['name'] KeyError in discovery worker that was resetting
phase back to 'fresh' after completion
- core/watchlist_scanner.py: Add _generate_lastfm_radio_playlists() with
weekly throttle, called at end of scan_all_watchlist_artists()
- webui/index.html: Add #lastfm-radio-section above ListenBrainz section,
hidden unless Last.fm API key is configured
- webui/static/script.js: Search/generation/card-load functions; fix
discovery modal labels (Last.fm Radio vs ListenBrainz), description
update on completion, belt-and-suspenders completion handling inside
updateYouTubeDiscoveryModal; fix album/duration display for tracks
without metadata; music note SVG placeholder for missing art
- webui/static/style.css: Styles for search bar, dropdown, result rows
After a page refresh JS state is wiped, so currentTrack is null and the
player widget stays hidden even though the backend is still streaming.
The backend already includes track_info (name/artist/album/image_url) in
every tool:stream push. The 'ready' case in both handlers now calls
setTrackInfo() when no track is loaded, which unhides the player and
populates title/artist before startAudioPlayback() runs.
The sidebar player was a poor use of vertical real estate and created the
collapsed-state layout issues. The mini player is now a fixed 360px widget
at bottom-right (above the bell/help buttons), matching the convention of
most streaming apps.
Changes:
- Removed media player from sidebar; sidebar spacer now pushes support/version
section to bottom as before
- New .mini-player-body horizontal layout: album art | track info | controls
- Added prev/next skip buttons (mini-nav-btn) with same skip logic as the
Now Playing modal; updateNpPrevNextButtons() now syncs both sets
- .media-player.idle now display:none (widget hides entirely when no track)
- Progress bar is a flush full-width line at the top of the widget
- Volume slider kept as hidden DOM element for JS compatibility; volume is
set via the Now Playing modal
- Toast container moved up to bottom:174px to stay above the mini player
- expand-hint button updated to four-corner expand icon, opens NP modal
- All volumeSlider and click-exclusion references updated for null-safety
The stream 'stopped' backend event was calling clearTrack() in both the
WebSocket handler (updateStreamStatusFromData) and the polling handler
(updateStreamStatus), which added the .idle class and collapsed the player
to zero height. This fired whenever audio ended naturally or when
transitioning between queue items (playQueueItem calls stopStream() to reset
backend state before loading the next track).
The explicit stop button (handleStop) already calls clearTrack() directly, so
the 'stopped' event handlers don't need to — and shouldn't.
New core/replaygain.py module uses FFmpeg's ebur128 filter (already a
project dependency) to analyze integrated loudness and true peak, then
writes ReplayGain 2.0 tags (-18 LUFS reference) to MP3 (TXXX frames),
FLAC/OGG/Opus (Vorbis comments), and M4A/MP4 (freeform atoms).
Three analysis modes in the enhanced library view:
- Per-track RG button: synchronous single-track analysis (~1-3 s)
- Album "ReplayGain" button: background job writing both track gain
and album gain (mean LUFS across all album tracks) to every file
- Bulk bar "ReplayGain" button: batch track-gain for selected tracks
read_file_tags() in tag_writer.py extended with four new optional keys
(replaygain_track_gain/_peak, replaygain_album_gain/_peak) so existing
RG values surface in the tag-preview diff view. Purely additive — no
existing endpoints or DB schema changed.
Singles could not be saved as a flat file (e.g. "$artist - $title")
because the frontend blocked any template without a "/" and the
backend path builder treated an empty folder_path as falsy, falling
through to the hardcoded nested-folder structure.
Frontend: removed the must-include-slash validation for single
templates only (album templates still require it).
Backend: changed condition from `if folder_path and filename_base`
to `if filename_base` so an empty folder_path is handled correctly
as a flat drop into the transfer root.
M3U entries now resolve actual file paths from the DB instead of
synthesising a fake 'Artist - Title.mp3' string that no media server
could use. Adds optional M3U Entry Base Path setting (Downloads tab)
so servers requiring absolute paths (e.g. /mnt/music) can be supported.
- New POST /api/generate-playlist-m3u endpoint: per-artist batch DB
lookups with fuzzy title matching, prefixes entry_base_path when set
- autoSavePlaylistM3U and exportPlaylistAsM3U now call the new endpoint
- M3U Entry Base Path input added below Music Videos Dir in settings,
follows path-input-group pattern with Unlock button and autosave
Album completeness and downstream repair flow now follow the configured
primary provider first, with Discogs and Hydrabase support added alongside
existing Spotify, iTunes, and Deezer paths.
Keep spotify_track_id for compatibility while preserving source-aware track
IDs for provider-neutral handling.
Server Playlists was filtered to only show playlists matching mirrored_playlists entries,
but Discover syncs are stored in sync_history (not mirrored_playlists), so they were
excluded. Adds GET /api/sync/history/names returning distinct synced playlist names,
and includes those in the filter alongside mirrored playlists.
_try_staging_match() built a minimal context missing spotify_artist,
spotify_album, is_album_download, and has_clean_spotify_data. Post-
processing returned early at the missing-spotify_artist guard and the
copied file was left at the transfer root with its original filename.
Now mirrors the sync modal worker's context-building: uses
_explicit_album_context/_explicit_artist_context when available
(artist-page album downloads), falls back to track.album/track.artists
for playlists and sync modal. track_number and disc_number are also
forwarded so multi-disc albums land in the correct Disc N/ subfolder.
Builds a new Your Albums section on the Discover page that aggregates
saved/liked albums from all connected services, mirroring the Your Artists
pattern. Deezer works via both OAuth and ARL.
- tidal_client: add get_favorite_albums() with V2/V1 API fallback
- deezer_client: add get_user_favorite_albums() via OAuth (user/me/albums)
- deezer_download_client: add get_user_favorite_albums() via ARL session
- music_database: add liked_albums_pool table (deduped by artist::album
normalized key), upsert_liked_album, get_liked_albums,
get_liked_albums_last_fetch, clear_liked_albums
- web_server: GET /api/discover/your-albums (ownership-checked, paginated),
GET /api/discover/your-albums/sources, POST /api/discover/your-albums/refresh,
_fetch_liked_albums background worker (Spotify + Tidal + Deezer OAuth/ARL)
- frontend: Your Albums section with source selector cog, album grid reusing
spotify-library-card styles, search/filter/sort/pagination, download missing
button, auto-refresh poll on first load
Also fix: Deezer greyed out in Your Artists sources when using ARL — connection
check now accepts ARL auth (deezer_dl.is_authenticated()) in addition to OAuth,
and _fetch_and_match_liked_artists falls back to ARL client for artist fetching.
Three issues fixed:
1. Plex add-track used delete+recreate (Playlist.create) which was
unreliable — switched to addItems() which atomically appends the
track without touching existing playlist items.
2. After a successful add, the UI only did an optimistic local update.
On reopen the automatic matcher ran fresh and couldn't connect the
manually selected track to the source slot, making it look unfixed.
Now both add and replace re-fetch the compare view from the server
so the matcher sees the actual updated Plex state.
3. Matching algorithm was too strict for common title variants. Added
_norm_title() which strips feat./ft., remaster/remastered, and
edition qualifiers before comparison — so "Boy 1904" matches
"Boy 1904 (2019 Remaster)" and "Float Away" matches "Float Away
(feat. Flamingosis & Eric Benny Bloom)". Display titles unchanged.
Gear button next to View All opens a sources modal letting users pick
which connected services (Spotify, Tidal, Last.fm, Deezer) contribute
artists to the Your Artists carousel. Setting saved via standard
/api/settings endpoint under discover.your_artists_sources.
- GET /api/discover/your-artists/sources returns enabled config + which
services are currently connected
- _fetch_and_match_liked_artists skips sources not in the enabled list
- Disconnected services shown dimmed and non-interactive in modal
- Saving with nothing selected blocked with error toast
- Remove z-index from .sidebar-header (fixes artist map overlap)
- Add padding-bottom to #automations-list-view (search bar overlap fix)
Add a 10vh bottom padding rule for #automations-list-view in webui/static/style.css to provide extra spacing at the bottom of the automations list and prevent content from being obscured by fixed UI elements (e.g., footer).
Add padding-bottom: 10vh to #settings-page .settings-content so the
bottom section is not obscured by the floating search bar overlay.
Closes#292 (item 3)
Replace div badges with data-url/onclick handlers by semantic <a> elements (with href, target="_blank" and rel="noopener noreferrer") for clickable artist badges, keeping non-clickable badges as divs. Update CSS to target .artist-hero-badge and unify hover/image rules instead of relying on data-url attribute, preserving visual behavior and removing pointer cursor for non-clickable divs. Also remove rendering of the server_source badge from the artist meta panel. These changes improve accessibility, security, and maintainability of badge markup and styling.
Add an Import nav button after Downloads (new SVG/icon) and remove the duplicate Import button that was located after Stats. This adjusts the sidebar navigation order (Downloads → Import → Library → ...) and removes the redundant element in webui/index.html.
Version bump to 2.3 with rewritten What's New modal covering all
changes since v2.2. Docker publish workflow default updated.
Sidebar improvements:
- Header stays pinned at top while nav and player scroll beneath it
- Media player collapses to compact single-line when no track is
playing, expands to full size when playback starts
Fixes:
- Server playlists endpoint Plex Tag object crash (getattr fix)
- Server playlists tab auto-refreshes after download completion
- Fixed dead code syntax error in archived version notes
sync-tab-content had overflow:hidden which clipped long content like
the file import preview table and server playlist editor. Changed to
overflow-y:auto so all sync tabs scroll when content exceeds the
container height.
M3U generator was calling .join() on an array of artist objects instead
of extracting .name first, producing "[object Object] - Track Name".
Now handles all artist formats: array of objects, array of strings,
single string, single object.
Also fix "name 'database' is not defined" error when updating album
year in post-processing — was using bare 'database' instead of
get_database() helper.
Single track downloads from Search, album downloads, redownloads, and
issue downloads were not in the M3U skip list, so auto-save M3U created
playlist files for them. Expanded skip list to cover all non-playlist
prefixes: enhanced_search_track_, issue_download_, library_redownload_,
and redownload_.
Dynamic music path inputs were created after auto-save listeners were
attached, so typing in them never triggered a save. Now attaches change
listeners when creating or rendering path rows. Removing a path also
triggers auto-save immediately.
New sidebar page showing every download task across the app in a unified
live-updating list. Tracks from Sync, Discover, Artists, Search, and
Wishlist all appear in one place.
Features:
- Filter pills: All / Active / Queued / Completed / Failed
- Section headers grouping by status category
- Track position (3 of 19) for album/playlist batches
- Album art, artist/album metadata, batch context, error messages
- Status dots with accent glow for active, green for complete, red fail
- Clear Completed button removes terminal items from tracker
- Nav badge shows active download count from any page via WebSocket
Fixes artist [object Object] display — handles all format variations
(list of dicts, list of strings, dict, string) for artist and album
fields in the API response.
Each step now explains what it does and how it connects to the rest of
SoulSync. Metadata step explains catalog vs download source. Download
step explains the search-match-download pipeline and Hybrid mode. Paths
step explains the two-folder system. Watchlist step explains Discover
page, scanner schedule, and per-artist filters. First Download step
explains the full tagging and organization pipeline. Done page adds a
2x3 tips grid covering Sync, Wishlist, Automations, Notifications,
Interactive Help, and Settings.
Wizard now shows automatically on fresh installs. Detection uses a
server-side flag (setup.completed) plus download_source.mode as a
fallback for existing users who configured settings before the wizard
existed. Config.json template defaults no longer fool the check.
Script load order fixed — setup-wizard.js loads before script.js so
openSetupWizard exists when DOMContentLoaded fires. Both finish and
skip paths set the server flag and localStorage, then continue app
initialization via callback.
7-step full-screen wizard: Welcome, Metadata Source, Download Source,
Paths & Media Server, Add Artists, First Download, Done. All settings
save to DB identically to the Settings page. Supports all 6 download
sources with inline config and test buttons. First download goes through
the full matched download pipeline with metadata context.
Fixes:
- Download clients (YouTube/HiFi/Tidal/Qobuz/Deezer) now reload
download_path when settings change instead of caching from init
- watchlist_artists table migrations now include deezer_artist_id and
discogs_artist_id in all 3 table rebuild locations (was being dropped)
- CREATE TABLE for watchlist_artists includes all provider ID columns
- Serverless download sources (YouTube/HiFi/Qobuz) show green status
instead of red disconnected on sidebar and dashboard
- Suppress repeated slskd 401 errors — logs once then silences until
connection recovers
Profile creation was missing Listening Stats, Playlist Explorer, and
Issues from the page access checkboxes. Home page dropdown was missing
Stats, Playlist Explorer, and Help & Docs. Both admin and self-edit
pageLabels dicts updated to match.
Added _streamLock flag to startStream() that prevents concurrent stream
requests when the user clicks play multiple times before the first
request completes. Lock is released in finally block so it always
clears on success, error, or exception.
Previously, rapid clicks would fire multiple stream requests to the
backend, each creating a separate audio playback — the only way to
stop them was a browser force refresh.
Lidarr integration:
- New core/lidarr_download_client.py with full interface parity
(search, download, status, cancel — same as Qobuz/Tidal/HiFi)
- Registered in download orchestrator with source routing
- Settings: URL + API key on Downloads tab with connection test
- Available as standalone source or in Hybrid mode priority order
- API key encrypted at rest
- All streaming source checks updated to include 'lidarr'
Lidarr downloads full albums via Usenet/torrent — SoulSync imports
only the tracks it needs and discards the rest.
Music video path validation:
- Empty/unconfigured path returns clear error instead of silent failure
- Write permission test before starting download
- Default changed from './MusicVideos' to empty (must be configured)
- Moved _downloadMusicVideo to top-level scope so global search can use
it (was inside enhanced search conditional that only runs on downloads page)
- Global search video cards use base64 data attributes to avoid JSON
escaping issues in onclick handlers
- Darkened thumbnail overlay during download for better progress visibility
- Larger progress ring (52px) with accent-colored glow shadow
Click any video card in Music Videos tab to download. Flow:
1. Search primary metadata source for clean artist/title
2. Fall back to YouTube title parsing if no match
3. Download video via yt-dlp (best quality MP4)
4. Save to configured Music Videos folder as Artist/Title-video.mp4
UI shows circular progress ring on the thumbnail during download,
green checkmark on completion, red X on error (clickable to retry).
Cards are non-interactive while downloading.
Backend: /api/music-video/download and /api/music-video/status endpoints
YouTube client: download_music_video() method keeps video format
New "Music Videos" pill tab alongside Spotify/Deezer/iTunes/Discogs
in both enhanced search and global search. Searches YouTube via yt-dlp
and displays results in a video card grid with 16:9 thumbnails, play
overlay, duration badge, channel name, and view count.
- Backend: /api/enhanced-search/source/youtube_videos endpoint with
search_videos() method on YouTubeClient returning YouTubeSearchResult
- Frontend: Video grid layout with responsive cards, YouTube red tab
color, proper section hiding when switching between metadata and
video tabs
- Global search: Full parity with enhanced search video rendering
- No download functionality yet — display only
New configurable path for storing music videos separately from audio
files, following Plex's global music video folder convention.
- Settings: library.music_videos_path (default: ./MusicVideos)
- UI: Music Videos Dir field on Settings Downloads tab with lock/unlock
- Docker: /app/MusicVideos volume mount in Dockerfile and docker-compose
- Added 'library' to settings save whitelist (was missing — music_paths
also wasn't persisting through main settings save)
- No download functionality yet — path infrastructure only
When a playlist sync has unmatched tracks sent to wishlist, the
completion toast now shows the specific track names instead of just
a count. Uses warning style so it stands out. The unmatched track
list is included in the sync state result so it's available for
both live status polling and notification history.
Addresses #272 — silent sync failures where users couldn't tell
which tracks out of 150+ failed to match their Plex library.
New toggle in Settings > Appearance disables backdrop blur (220
instances), animations (238), transitions (961), and box shadows
(804) across the entire UI via a single body class. Significantly
reduces GPU/CPU usage on low-end devices. Default off — no change
for existing users. Applied from localStorage on load to prevent
flash.
Duplicate finding detail now shows each version as clickable — user
can choose which to keep instead of relying on auto-selection. Added
track_number as tiebreaker in auto-pick (higher track number wins
over 01, catching leftover duplicates from the playlist sync track
number bug). Track number displayed in the detail view for clarity.
New automation action that executes user scripts from a dedicated
scripts/ directory. Available as both a DO action and THEN action.
Scripts are selected from a dropdown populated by /api/scripts.
Security: only scripts in the scripts dir can run, path traversal
blocked, no shell=True, stdout/stderr capped, configurable timeout
(max 300s). Scripts receive SOULSYNC_EVENT, SOULSYNC_AUTOMATION,
and SOULSYNC_SCRIPTS_DIR environment variables.
Includes Dockerfile + docker-compose.yml changes for the scripts
volume mount, and three example scripts (hello_world.sh,
system_info.py, notify_ntfy.sh).
Sidebar media player now shows the SoulSync logo instead of a broken
image icon when no album art is available or when no track is playing.
Default src, onerror fallback, and clear-player paths all use
/static/trans2.png.
After a successful playlist sync, if the source playlist has cover
art (Spotify, Tidal, Deezer, etc.), the image is downloaded and
uploaded as the playlist poster on the media server. Plex uses
uploadPoster(), Jellyfin/Emby uses POST /Items/{id}/Images/Primary.
Navidrome skipped (no playlist image API). Failure is silent — sync
result unchanged. Automation-triggered syncs and playlists without
images are unaffected.
Sync rehydration: after loading Deezer ARL playlists, checks each
for active syncs via /api/sync/status and re-attaches polling with
live card updates. Download rehydration: rehydrateModal now handles
deezer_arl_ playlist IDs, and openDownloadMissingModal routes cache
misses to the correct ARL endpoint. Fix All now prompts for dead
file action.
Album data caching: get_playlist_tracks now checks the metadata
cache before fetching album release dates from the Deezer API.
Cache hits are instant, misses are fetched and stored for future
use across all playlists. Import fixed from core.metadata_cache
instead of web_server to avoid circular dependency.
Dead file fix now prompts with two options: Re-download (existing
behavior — adds to wishlist + deletes DB entry) or Remove from DB
(just deletes the dead track record without re-downloading). Works
for both single and bulk fix. Solves the issue where dismissing
dead files didn't remove the underlying track record, causing them
to reappear on every scan.
What's New: Added Deezer user playlists, Qobuz token auth, streaming
source artist gate, download history provenance, and comprehensive
fixes section covering artist name casing, future album skip, track
number fix, Emby sync, discovery fix fallback, and all new settings.
Help docs: Updated Qobuz auth to mention token option, added Music
Library Paths, Replace Lower Quality, and HiFi Instance Health to
Other Settings section.
New setting in Settings > Library lets users add folder paths where
their music files live. The file resolver checks these paths when
looking for library files, solving Docker path mismatches and multi-
folder libraries. Required for tag writing, streaming, and orphan
detection when the media server reports paths that differ from what
SoulSync can see. Docker users mount their music folder(s) with
read-write access and add the container-side path. Default is empty
— existing users see no change.
New toggle in Settings > Library: "Replace lower quality files on
import". When enabled, if a track already exists in the library at
a lower quality tier (e.g. MP3) and a higher quality version (e.g.
FLAC) is imported from staging, the existing file is replaced.
Comparison uses the existing QUALITY_TIERS system (lossless > opus/
ogg > m4a > mp3). When disabled (default), existing behavior is
unchanged — existing tracks are always kept. Also applies to regular
downloads that land on an existing file.
Discovery fix modal now tries the user's active metadata source
first, then falls back through all available sources (Spotify,
Deezer, iTunes) in sequence. Previously hardcoded Spotify with no
fallback, leaving users without Spotify stuck on "Searching...".
New /api/deezer/search_tracks endpoint exposes the existing
DeezerClient.search_tracks() method for the fix modal. Same
request/response format as Spotify and iTunes endpoints.
Qobuz added reCAPTCHA to their login endpoint, blocking automated
email/password auth for new users. Token login lets users paste
their X-User-Auth-Token from the browser DevTools after logging in
manually. Added to both Connections and Downloads tabs with
instructions. Existing email/password flow completely unchanged.
Backend validates token via user/get API and saves the session
identically to email/password login.
New "Check All Instances" button in Settings > Downloads > HiFi
shows each configured instance with color-coded status: green for
fully working (can download), orange for search-only (downloads
fail), red for offline/SSL error/timeout. Helps users understand
why HiFi downloads aren't working when community instances go down.
ARL field now appears on both Connections tab (under Deezer OAuth)
and Downloads tab. Both fields are populated from the same config
key and synced bidirectionally via input listeners. Editing either
field instantly updates the other.
New "Deezer" tab on sync page shows authenticated user's playlists,
identical to the Spotify tab pattern — same card layout, details
modal with track list, sync button, and download missing tracks
flow. Existing URL import renamed to "Deezer Link" tab (unchanged).
Backend: get_user_playlists() and get_playlist_tracks() on the
download client fetch via public API with ARL session cookies.
Album release dates batch-fetched for $year template variable.
Three new endpoints: arl-status, arl-playlists, arl-playlist/<id>.
Frontend: cards use Spotify-identical HTML structure with live sync
status, progress indicators, and View Progress/Results buttons.
Downloads reuse openDownloadMissingModal with zero modifications.
Track data cached on first open, instant on subsequent clicks.
Library page: new dropdown filter to show artists matched or unmatched
to any metadata source (Spotify, MusicBrainz, Deezer, Discogs, etc).
Select "No Discogs" to find artists needing manual Discogs matching.
Filter applied as WHERE clause on the source ID columns.
Discogs enrichment: added to valid_services whitelist, _enrichment_locks,
and _run_single_enrichment handler. The Enrich button was returning an
error when Discogs was selected from the dropdown.
Settings > Advanced now shows database size, free pages, and auto-
vacuum mode. Two actions: Compact Database (full VACUUM to reclaim
dead space) and Enable Incremental Vacuum (one-time setup for
automatic page reclamation). Both have confirmation dialogs warning
about lock time on large databases. Info refreshes on Advanced tab
switch and after each operation.
SQLite CURRENT_TIMESTAMP stores UTC but the format lacks a timezone
marker. JavaScript parsed it as local time, causing future-dated
timestamps and negative diffs that always fell into 'Just now'.
Normalize by appending 'Z' to mark as UTC before parsing.
Streaming matching: add artist gate rejecting candidates with artist
similarity below 0.4, raise threshold to 0.60, block fallback to
Soulseek filename matcher for Tidal/Qobuz/HiFi/Deezer. Fix single-
char artist containment bug where normalize_string strips non-ASCII
(e.g. "B小町" → "b") causing "b" to match any artist containing
that letter. Fixed in both score_track_match and the Soulseek scorer.
YouTube and Soulseek matching behavior unchanged.
Global search: add registerSearchDownload() calls to _gsClickAlbum
and _gsClickTrack so downloads create bubble snapshots on dashboard
and search page, matching the enhanced search standard.
Global search escaping: add _escAttr() helper to handle newlines in
album/artist names that broke inline onclick string literals.
Entries are now compact cards that expand on click to reveal source
details. Shows expected vs downloaded title/artist with red mismatch
highlighting. Source artist column added to DB. Streaming track IDs
extracted from the id||name filename pattern. File and ID always on
their own line to avoid edge-case misplacement.
Track original source filename, track ID, and AcoustID verification
result for every download. Helps debug wrong-file downloads from
streaming sources like Tidal. Each column migrated independently
for crash safety. Frontend shows source detail line and color-coded
AcoustID badge per entry. Button renamed to "Download History".
Visual overhaul of the API Configuration section: each service frame
is now a collapsible accordion with brand-colored dots, chevron
indicators, and smooth expand/collapse animations. Includes an
Expand All / Collapse All toggle. No functional changes — all element
IDs, save/load logic, and tab switching preserved.
- search_artists() now filters by active media server — no more duplicate
results from Plex/Jellyfin/Navidrome showing the same artist 3 times
- Per-artist Sync button re-fetches artist name from media server, catches
renames (e.g., Plex changing "Kendrick Lamar" to "eastside k-boy")
- Global search track click opens download modal directly instead of
navigating to enhanced search page (matches enhanced search behavior)
Reversed the flow: user now sees "Move to Staging" vs "Delete" choice
first, instead of the scary "permanently delete N files" dialog. Staging
gets a friendly confirmation. Delete ≤50 gets standard confirm. Delete
>50 still requires witness-me safety gate. Updated prompt text to
clarify staging is safe and reversible. (#252)
New download_source column on library_history table records which source
(Soulseek, Tidal, Qobuz, HiFi, YouTube, Deezer) each track was downloaded
from. Extracted from context username during post-processing.
Frontend shows source badge alongside quality badge on each download entry.
Source breakdown bar below tabs shows per-source totals with color-coded
chips (e.g., "Soulseek: 847 | Tidal: 203"). Includes DB migration for
existing installs. Existing entries show quality only (source is NULL).
Replaced single "Change" button with per-source rows showing match
status for each provider (Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, Discogs).
Each row has Fix/Match button that searches that specific source API,
plus clear button to remove individual matches.
- Per-source search uses _search_service (same as enrichment modal)
- Backend: added Discogs to valid providers, empty ID clears match
- Fixed provider validation to accept 'discogs' alongside others
- Clear sets DB column to NULL instead of rejecting empty string
Initial load fetches 200 tracks instead of all. "Load More" button at
bottom shows (200 of 5,000) and loads next batch on click. Backend now
returns total count alongside limited results for both album and singles
categories. Rendering logic unchanged — just operates on smaller sets.
Playlist Pipeline — single automation that runs the full playlist lifecycle:
refresh → discover → sync → download missing. Replaces 4-automation signal
chains. Phase-aware progress display (Phase 1/4, 2/4, etc.), guard function
prevents concurrent runs, fire-and-forget wishlist at end. Re-sync loop
catches newly downloaded tracks on next scheduled run.
- New action type 'playlist_pipeline' with handler, blocks endpoint config,
builder UI (playlist select, process all, skip wishlist checkboxes),
help modal, result display map, and Hub template
- Removed 3 redundant Hub templates (Release Radar, Discovery Weekly,
Playlist Auto-Sync) — all replaced by the pipeline
- Fixed sync completion polling (status is 'finished' not 'complete')
- Fixed refresh handler progress hijack (null out _automation_id)
- Fixed matched_tracks field access from sync_states result
Also in this commit:
- Wishlist badges on enhanced search and global search tracks (amber)
- Discogs added to manual enrichment modal search + artist/album dropdowns
- Profile PIN forgot recovery on profile selection dialog
Watchlist map nodes used w.get('key', '') which returns None when the
DB column is NULL (key exists with None value). None serialized to JSON
null, which is falsy in JS, causing 'No source ID' throw for every
artist click.
- Changed to `w.get('key') or ''` for all ID fields (coerces None→'')
- Added discogs_id to watchlist nodes (was missing entirely)
- Removed hard throw when no source ID — falls back to name-based lookup
- Added console.error logging for future diagnosis
cover.jpg was always written from Spotify/iTunes URL (640x640) when the
first track in an album reached _download_cover_art before MusicBrainz
lookup completed. Later tracks with MBID skipped because file existed.
Fix: when cover.jpg exists but is small (<200KB) and we now have a CAA
MBID, attempt to upgrade it with the high-res CAA version. If CAA fetch
fails, keep existing cover — no pointless overwrites.
Also adds Forgot PIN recovery to the profile selection PIN dialog,
reusing the same credential verification flow as the launch lock screen.
Backend reset endpoint now accepts profile_id parameter.
- Image proxy endpoint (/api/image-proxy) for canvas CORS — allowlisted CDNs,
browser-like UA for Deezer, 24h cache headers. Direct CORS first, proxy fallback.
- Server-side 5-min cache on all artist map endpoints with auto-invalidation
on watchlist add/remove, scan complete, and new MusicMap discoveries.
- Explorer fetches similar artists from MusicMap on-the-fly when none stored,
saves to DB for instant future visits. Validates artist names against
Spotify/iTunes API before loading map — rejects gibberish with 404.
- Genre map per-genre cap removed (was 300 backend, 400 frontend).
- Center node in Explorer uses type 'center' not 'watchlist' — no longer
misidentified as a watchlist artist.
- Error overlay auto-dismisses after 2.5s and returns to Discover page.
- Helper What's New restructured with dated sections (April 4/3/2/1, March),
trimmed from ~80 to ~38 entries, date headers styled as purple dividers.
- Version modal updated with Artist Map section and recent fixes.
Full-width section with three mode cards: Watchlist (existing), Genres
(placeholder), and Explorer (placeholder). Dark gradient background
with purple/blue ambient glow, animated dot grid overlay, and polished
card hover effects. Replaces the old small hero button.
Responsive: 3-column desktop, 1-column mobile.
Toolbar redesigned: three-section layout (back+brand / centered search
with icon / tool buttons). Brand icon in accent purple. Zoom buttons in
compact pill group. Tool labels visible on desktop, icon-only on mobile.
Added keyboard shortcuts modal (keyboard icon button): lists all 10
shortcuts with styled kbd elements.
Fixes:
- Mouse wheel zoom min matched to button zoom min (0.02)
- Right-click no longer triggers left-click info modal (button filter)
- Removed external "Open on Spotify" link from context menu
- Search results dropdown centered under search bar
- Keyboard: Escape close, +/- zoom, F fit, S search, H toggle similar
- Right-click context menu: Artist Info, View Discography, Watchlist,
Open on Spotify — glass-style with auto-close
- Filter toggle button + H key: hide/show similar artists for clean
watchlist-only overview
- Removed node dragging (caused visual desync with offscreen buffer)
- Better loading progress text
- Cleanup: keyboard handler removed on close, context menu hidden
- Metadata cache backfill: batch-lookup all node names across all sources
to fill missing IDs, images, and genres
- Source-aware navigation: View Discography passes correct source to
artist page so non-active-source artists load correctly
- Constellation hover effect: 800ms delay, fade in/out animation, dim
overlay with glowing connection lines to related artists
- Click ripple animation on node selection
- Related artists list in info modal with clickable navigation
- Rich tooltip with artist photo, name, genres on hover
- Removed node dragging (caused visual desync with offscreen buffer)
- Performance: cached constellation lookups, lighter cache query
(no raw_json), canvas.width for proper DPR overlay coverage
Visual canvas map on Discover page showing watchlist artists as large
anchor bubbles surrounded by their similar artists, sized by relevance.
Layout: golden angle spiral for watchlist nodes with push-apart guarantee,
spiral packing with spatial grid collision detection for similar artists.
Offscreen buffer rendering for smooth pan/zoom (single drawImage blit).
Features:
- 320px watchlist bubbles, similar sized 25-55% by rank/occurrence
- Search bar with instant filter + animated zoom-to-node
- Tooltip with artist photo, name, genre tags on hover
- Touch support: single finger pan, pinch zoom, tap to click
- Zoom +/- buttons and fit-to-screen with smooth 250ms animation
- Click opens artist info modal (same as Your Artists)
- Loading overlay with image count progress
- Async image loading via createImageBitmap (non-blocking)
YOUR ARTISTS (major feature):
- Aggregates liked/followed artists from Spotify, Tidal, Last.fm, Deezer
- Matches to ALL metadata sources (Spotify, iTunes, Deezer, Discogs)
- DB-first matching: library → watchlist → cache → API search (capped)
- Image backfill from Spotify API for artists missing artwork
- Carousel on Discover page with 20 random matched artists
- View All modal with search, source filters, sort, pagination
- Artist info modal: hero image, matched source badges, genres, bio,
listeners/plays from Last.fm, watchlist toggle, view discography
- Auto-refresh with loading state on first load, polls until ready
- Deduplication by normalized name across all services
DEEZER OAUTH:
- Full OAuth flow: /auth/deezer + /deezer/callback
- Settings UI on Connections tab (App ID, Secret, Redirect URI)
- Token stored encrypted, auto-included in API calls
- get_user_favorite_artists() for liked artists pool
SERVICE CLIENTS:
- Spotify: added user-follow-read scope + get_followed_artists()
- Tidal: get_favorite_artists() with V2/V1 fallback
- Last.fm: get_authenticated_username() + get_user_top_artists()
FAILED MB LOOKUPS MANAGER:
- Manage button on Cache Health modal
- Browse/filter/search all failed MusicBrainz lookups
- Search MusicBrainz directly and manually match entries
- Optimized cache health queries (11 → 4 consolidated)
- Dashboard cache stats now poll every 15s
EXPLORER IMPROVEMENTS:
- Discover button on undiscovered playlist cards
- Status badges: explored/wishlisted/downloaded/ready
- Auto-refresh during discovery via polling
- Redesigned controls: prominent Explore button, icons
BUG FIXES:
- Fix album artist splitting on collab albums (collab mode fed
album-level artists instead of per-track)
- Fix cover.jpg not moving during library reorganize (post-pass sweep)
- Fix cover.jpg missing when album detection takes fallback path
- Fix wishlist auto-processing toast spam (was firing every 2s)
- Fix media player collapsing on short viewports
- Fix watchlist rate limiting (~90% fewer API calls)
- Configurable spotify.min_api_interval setting
- Better Retry-After header extraction
- Encrypt Last.fm and Discogs credentials at rest
- Add $discnum template variable (unpadded disc number)
$discnum was functional but missing from the settings hint text,
template validation whitelist, and docs page. Users would see an
"invalid variable" error when trying to use it.
Also fixes wishlist auto-processing toast spam — was firing every 2s
instead of once per auto-processing run.
Added min-height and flex-shrink: 0 to prevent the sidebar flex layout
from compressing the player to zero height. Desktop 120px, tablet 100px,
phone 90px. The sidebar-spacer absorbs compression instead.
Explore button moved to its own row below playlist cards with gradient,
search icon, and "Explore Selected Playlist" label. Impossible to miss.
Mode toggle redesigned as pill segmented control with grid/list icons.
Action bar buttons get inline SVG icons (checkmark, square, heart).
Primary buttons use gradient + glow shadow treatment.
Build hint shows "Select a playlist above, then explore" → updates to
"Ready: [name]" when playlist selected. Discovery poller refreshes
cards every 5s while active. Button re-enables as "Open" after modal
launch so user can reopen closed discovery modal.
1. Discover button on undiscovered playlist cards — triggers discovery
directly from Explorer instead of redirecting to Sync page. Button
changes to "Open" to reopen modal after closing.
2. Status badges on playlist cards: checkmark (in library), heart
(wishlisted), star (fully discovered), percentage (needs discovery).
Meta line shows "N in library · M wishlisted" counts.
3. Auto-refresh: polls every 5s during active discovery to update cards.
WebSocket listener for discovery:progress events. Cards refresh when
discovery completes.
4. Explored tracking: playlists get green checkmark badge after tree is
built (session-only, resets on reload).
Backend: new get_mirrored_playlist_status_counts with fail-safe design —
core discovery counts use simple reliable queries, library/wishlist
counts are best-effort extras that won't break discovery detection.
Card layout redesigned: badges inline with playlist name, discover
button below meta text, no more absolute positioning overlaps.
New feature: Failed MusicBrainz Lookups management modal accessible
from Cache Health. Browse all failed lookups with type filter tabs,
search bar, pagination. Click any entry to search MusicBrainz and
manually match — saves MBID at 100% confidence. Clear individual
entries or bulk clear all.
Backend: 4 new endpoints — failed-mb-lookups list, mb-entry delete,
musicbrainz/search (artist/release/recording), mb-match save.
Performance: Cache health stats consolidated from 11 queries to 4
using CASE expressions. Added partial index on musicbrainz_cache for
failed lookups. Dashboard cache stats now poll every 15s instead of
single fire-and-forget fetch. Failed MB type counts cached on frontend,
only re-fetched after mutations.
Also includes: library reorganize now moves cover.jpg via post-pass
sidecar sweep, and changelog updates.
Addresses all three points from community rate-limiting report:
1. Watchlist scans fetched ALL albums then filtered — 262 albums = 27
API calls per artist. Now determines upfront if full discography is
needed: subsequent scans and time-bounded lookbacks use max_pages=1
(1 API call). Only "full discography" global setting fetches all.
2. MIN_API_INTERVAL (350ms) now configurable via spotify.min_api_interval
setting. Users who get rate-limited frequently can increase the delay.
Floor at 100ms to prevent abuse.
3. Retry-After header extraction improved: added diagnostic logging when
headers exist but lack Retry-After key, plus regex fallback to parse
the value from the error message string.
Feed collab mode album-level artists instead of per-track artists so
$albumartist and the album_artist tag are consistent across all tracks
in an album. Fixes media servers (Navidrome/Jellyfin/Plex) showing one
album split under multiple artist names (e.g. KPOP Demon Hunters).
- _build_final_path_for_track: resolve $albumartist from explicit batch
context or spotify_album.artists, pass album-level _artists_list to
collab mode instead of per-track artists
- _extract_spotify_metadata: same album-level artists for album_artist
tag collab resolution
- Wishlist path: pre-compute per-album artist map so all tracks from
the same album get the same artist context
- Download worker: propagate album artists array in spotify_album_context
- Watchlist artist list: discogs_artist_id in API response
- Watchlist source badges: Discogs badge on artist cards
- Watchlist config modal: discogs_artist_id in SQL query, WHERE clause,
response, and linked provider section with badge
- CSS for watchlist-source-discogs and watchlist-provider-badge.discogs
- Add discogs_id to manually constructed artist_data dict in
get_library_artists (was in SQL but not in response dict)
- Add Discogs to enrichment coverage circles on artist detail page
- Add Discogs to enhanced artist/album ID badges and match status chips
- All badge locations verified: library cards, artist hero, enhanced view
- Add discogs_id to library artists SQL SELECT (was missing)
- Add discogs_id to artist detail discography SQL SELECT and service
IDs loop — fixes hero badges not showing Discogs
- DISCOGS_LOGO_URL constant, badge in library cards, hero, enhanced view
- Match status chip and manual match support for Discogs
- Add _extract_discogs_fields to metadata cache — handles Discogs field
names (title vs name, images array, Artist - Title format)
- Worker uses _fetch_and_cache_artist/_fetch_and_cache_album helpers
that cache raw data while returning it for enrichment
- All search/lookup methods cache results for repeat queries
- Cache browser: Discogs stat pill, source filter, clear button, badge
- Fixes albums showing as 'Unknown' and artists missing images in cache
- Cards reclassified from album to single/EP (via lazy track count)
now physically move from albums-grid to singles-grid
- Singles section auto-shows when cards move into it
- Add collectors edition to album title variation patterns — fixes
"Damn" not matching "DAMN. COLLECTORS EDITION." in library
- Both base-title-to-edition and edition-to-base variations now include
collectors edition alongside deluxe/platinum/special
- Fetch real track count from source during completion check when
total_tracks is 0 (Discogs masters) — one API call per album, runs
during existing per-album ownership check phase
- Reclassify album cards to single/EP when track count reveals 1-3/4-6
tracks — updates type label and data attribute in place
- Add collectors edition to album title variation patterns for matching
"Damn" against "DAMN. COLLECTORS EDITION." in library
- Hide 0/0 fraction when expected_tracks is 0, show proper count when
fetched
- Fix source name mapping so sidebar/dashboard shows 'Discogs' instead
of falling through to 'iTunes'
- Fix album type detection: parse format string from artist releases
endpoint (e.g. "File, FLAC, Single, 320") to correctly identify
singles, EPs, albums, compilations — was defaulting everything to
'single' because track count was 0
- Remove fake track search that returned albums as tracks — Discogs
has no track-level search API, so tracks section is empty (honest)
- Track data available via album tracklists instead
- SpotifyClient: add _discogs lazy-load property, route _fallback to
DiscogsClient when configured (requires token, falls back to iTunes)
- web_server: _get_metadata_fallback_client returns DiscogsClient when
selected and token present
- Enhanced search: Discogs added as source tab with NDJSON streaming,
only available when token configured
- Alternate sources list includes Discogs when token is set
- Frontend: source labels, tab styling, fetch list all include Discogs
- Consistent with iTunes/Deezer pattern — same interfaces, same routing
- Add Discogs to WORKER_DEFS in worker-orbs.js so it participates
in the floating orb animation like all other enrichment workers
- Use SVG logo image instead of text
- Fix spinner and state CSS to match exact pattern of other workers
- Circular button with "dc" logo text, matching exact pattern of
AudioDB/Deezer/Spotify/iTunes/Last.fm/Genius/Tidal/Qobuz buttons
- Spinner animation when active, dimmed when paused, green when complete
- Hover tooltip showing status, current item, and progress stats
- Click to toggle pause/resume with config persistence
- WebSocket status handler updates button state in real-time
- New core/discogs_worker.py — background worker enriching artists and
albums with Discogs metadata following AudioDBWorker pattern exactly
- Artist enrichment: discogs_id, bio, members, URLs, image backfill,
genre backfill, summary backfill from bio
- Album enrichment: discogs_id, genres, styles (400+ taxonomy), label,
catalog number, country, community rating, image backfill
- DB migration: discogs columns on artists (id, match_status, bio,
members, urls) and albums (id, match_status, genres, styles, label,
catno, country, rating, rating_count)
- Worker initialization with pause/resume persistence
- Status/pause/resume API endpoints
- Integrated into enrichment status system, rate monitor, auto-pause
during downloads/scans, WebSocket status emission
- New Discogs section on Settings → Connections with personal token input
- Discogs added as fallback metadata source option alongside iTunes/Deezer
- Token saved to discogs.token config key
- Discogs added to API rate monitor gauges (60/min with auth)
- Help text links to discogs.com/settings/developers for token generation
- Add bit_depth, sample_rate, bitrate columns to track_downloads table
- Read audio info from file via Mutagen when recording provenance
- Source Info popover shows "Audio: 24-bit · 96.0kHz · 2304kbps"
- These values are captured from the original file before transcoding,
so users can see the original specs even after Blasphemy Mode converts
FLAC to lossy format
- Rate monitor: 2-column grid, smaller text/badges, compact gauge cards,
hide status badge on very small screens
- Notifications: full-width toast, repositioned bell button, panel fills
screen width with proper margins
- Global search: responsive bar width, full-width when active, results
panel positioned for mobile viewport
- All fixed-position elements (bell, help, search) repositioned for
mobile with smaller touch targets
- New 'webhook' then-action: sends HTTP POST with JSON payload to any
user-configured URL (Gotify, Home Assistant, Slack, n8n, etc.)
- Config: URL, optional custom headers (Key: Value per line with
variable substitution), optional custom message
- Payload includes all event variables as JSON fields
- 15s timeout, errors on 400+ status codes
- Follows exact same pattern as Discord/Pushbullet/Telegram handlers
- Frontend: config fields, config reader, icon, help docs
- Updated changelogs with webhook, M3U fix, orchestrator hardening
- autoSavePlaylistM3U() returns early for album downloads (detected by
playlistId prefix) — albums are already grouped by media servers,
M3U just creates empty duplicate playlists (Navidrome auto-imports them)
- Fix broken isAlbum detection — data-context was always "playlist",
now uses reliable playlistId prefix matching
- Update toggle label: "playlists and albums" → "playlists"
- Update hint text to explain albums are skipped and why
- Manual Export M3U button still works for both (explicit user action)
- Each of the 6 download clients initializes independently via
_safe_init() — one failing client no longer kills the orchestrator
- All methods guarded against None clients with appropriate fallbacks
- Init failures logged at startup and tracked in _init_failures list
- Copy Debug Info shows "Download Client Failures" section when any
client failed to initialize, or "ALL" if orchestrator itself is dead
- Merge enrichment worker status into rate monitor WebSocket payload
- Hide old enrichment pills — rate monitor cards now show: service name,
worker status badge, arc gauge, calls/min, 1h/24h counts, budget bar
- Debounce idle detection with 5s grace period — prevents status
flickering between Running and Idle on every worker cycle
- Responsive grid layout with richer card design
- Backend: include api_rates (per-service calls/min + Spotify endpoints)
and spotify_rate_limit (active, remaining, trigger endpoint) in debug-info
- Frontend: format API rates table with service name, cpm, limit, percentage,
and Spotify endpoint breakdown. Show bold warning block when rate limited
with trigger endpoint, remaining time, and retry-after value
- New core/api_call_tracker.py — centralized tracker with rolling 60s
timestamps (speedometer) and 24h minute-bucketed history (charts)
- Instrument all 9 service client rate_limited decorators to record
actual API calls with per-endpoint tracking for Spotify
- 1-second WebSocket push loop for real-time gauge updates
- Modern radial arc gauges with service brand colors, glowing active
arc, endpoint dot, 0/max scale labels, smooth CSS transitions
- Click any gauge to open detail modal with 24h call history chart
(Canvas 2D, HiDPI, gradient fill, grid lines, danger zone band)
- Spotify modal shows per-endpoint history lines with color legend
and live per-endpoint breakdown bars
- Rate limited state indicator — blinking red badge with countdown
timer appears on gauge card when Spotify ban is active
- REST endpoint GET /api/rate-monitor/history/<service> for chart data
- Responsive grid layout (5 cols desktop, 3 tablet, 2 phone)
- New "Concurrent Downloads" dropdown on Settings page (1-10, default 3)
- Saved to download_source.max_concurrent config key
- All 6 batch creation sites use configured value instead of hardcoded 3
- Soulseek-only album downloads still use 1 worker (source reuse per user)
- Hybrid/YouTube/Tidal/Qobuz/Deezer albums use full configured concurrency
- Per-section loading spinners (artists/albums/tracks) shown until each
NDJSON chunk arrives, auto-replaced with real content on receipt
- Active tab content auto-re-renders as streaming data arrives for both
enhanced search and global search
- Global search lazy-loads artist images for iTunes/Deezer via
/api/artist/{id}/image fallback (album art), matching enhanced search
- Source endpoint now streams artists/albums/tracks as separate NDJSON
lines as each search type completes — iTunes users see artists in ~3s
instead of waiting 9+ seconds for all 3 rate-limited calls to finish
- Enhanced search _fetchAlternateSource reads stream with ReadableStream
reader, merges each chunk into source data, re-renders tabs immediately
- Global search uses same streaming pattern via _gsFetchSourceStream
- No data loss: streamed data merges incrementally, primary response
preserves already-received alternate source data
- Remove direct request_scan() calls from album and singles import —
emit batch_complete through automation engine instead, matching the
same chain as download batches (scan → DB update)
- Show current track name in import queue status display instead of
just processed/total count
- Change <int:track_id> to <track_id> on 5 library track endpoints —
Jellyfin uses GUID strings, int converter rejected them with 404 (#237)
- Add PUT /api/library/clear-match endpoint — sets service ID to NULL
and match status to not_found, allowing users to undo wrong matches (#236)
- Add "Clear Match" button in the manual match modal for all services
- Add bottom padding to .page to prevent floating buttons (bell, help)
from overlapping track action buttons at page bottom (#237)
- New discovery_artist_blacklist table with NOCASE name matching
- Filter blacklisted artists from all 6 discovery pool queries, hero
endpoint, and recent releases via SQL subquery and Python set check
- Name-based filtering means one block covers all sources (Spotify/iTunes/Deezer)
- Hover any discovery track row → ✕ button to quick-block that artist
- 🚫 button on Discover hero opens management modal with search-to-add
(powered by enhanced search) and list of blocked artists with unblock
- CRUD API: GET/POST/DELETE /api/discover/artist-blacklist
- Updated changelogs
- Add MusicBrainz to Cache Browser: stats pill, source filter, dedicated
browse endpoint, cards with matched/failed status indicators
- Add Clear MusicBrainz and Clear Failed MB Only to cache clear dropdown
- Move MusicBrainz into Cache Health "By Source" bar chart alongside
Spotify/iTunes/Deezer instead of isolated metric row
- Rename ambiguous "Failed Lookups" to "Failed MB Lookups" in summary cards
- Add browse-musicbrainz and clear-musicbrainz API endpoints
- Add musicbrainz_total/musicbrainz_failed to cache stats response
- Add Global Search Bar and MusicBrainz cache to changelogs
- Strip cloned inline onclick on global search play button swap to prevent
simultaneous stream search + library play
- Include album thumb_url in library-check response and resolve relative
Plex paths to full URLs with base URL + token
- Pass album art through to playLibraryTrack from both global and enhanced
search library check handlers
- Add Plex music library locations as candidate dirs in _resolve_library_file_path
- Remove debug console.log from _gsDeactivate
Persistent Spotlight-style search bar at bottom-center, accessible
from any page via click, /, or Ctrl+K. Hidden on Downloads page
where enhanced search already exists.
Features matching enhanced search:
- Clear button when input has text
- Source tabs with live switching
- Source badges, library check, play buttons
- Album click opens download modal directly
- Artist click navigates to detail page
- Tab switching stays open (timestamp guard)
- Mobile responsive
1. LB Discover page cards now use the dropdown (Download/Sync) instead
of the old single button with full choice dialog
2. Dropdown position auto-flips downward when button is near viewport top
3. Dropdown centered on button instead of right-aligned
4. Sync completion toast now includes playlist name and ⚡ indicator
5. Download modal already shows ⚡ prefix on playlist name as indicator
All changes purely additive — existing flows unaffected.
Live status: updateYouTubeModalSyncProgress was hardcoded to youtube-*
element IDs but each source uses its own prefix (listenbrainz-*, tidal-*,
deezer-*, etc). Now tries all prefixes to find the correct elements.
Fixes Wing It sync progress AND a pre-existing bug where normal LB/Tidal
sync from the modal wouldn't show live progress.
Wing It button added to sync_complete phase so it persists after sync.
Fixed tracks lookup with state.playlist?.tracks fallback. Increased
button size in modal to match other action buttons.
The discoverMetadata (needed for bubble creation) was only set for
playlist IDs starting with discover_lb_, listenbrainz_, or source
SoulSync. Wing It uses wing_it_ prefix which wasn't matched.
Added wing_it_ to the condition so bubbles appear on dashboard
and sidebar during Wing It downloads.
Wing It bypasses Spotify/iTunes/Deezer matching and uses raw track
names directly. User chooses Download or Sync from a choice dialog.
Download: opens Download Missing modal with force-download-all
pre-checked. wing_it flag skips wishlist for failed tracks.
Sync: new POST /api/wing-it/sync endpoint runs _run_sync_task with
raw track dicts. Live inline sync status display on the LB card
using the same progress elements as normal sync. Unmatched tracks
skip wishlist via _skip_wishlist flag on sync_service.
Button in three places:
- Next to "Start Discovery" in all discovery modals (fresh phase)
- Next to "Download Missing"/"Sync" after discovery (discovered phase)
- Next to "Download" on ListenBrainz cards (Discover page)
Fixed force-download toggle ID, sync progress field names
(total_tracks/matched_tracks not total/matched). All changes
purely additive — normal flows unaffected.
Discovery status polling was skipped when WebSocket was connected
(8 places), assuming socket events would push updates. But no
WebSocket events exist for discovery progress — the table stayed
on "Pending..." forever. Now always polls the status endpoint.
Pre-existing bug, not caused by recent changes.
Complete replacement of the old bottom-center stacking toast system:
Compact Toasts: Single toast at a time, bottom-right above buttons.
Pill shape with type-colored left border stripe, icon, message, and
optional "Learn more" link. Slides in, fades out after 3.5s. Click
to dismiss. New toasts replace the current one smoothly.
Notification Bell: 44px circle button next to the helper (?), with
red badge counter for unread notifications. Click opens panel.
Notification Panel: Glass popover above bell button showing history
of last 50 notifications. Each entry has type icon, message, relative
timestamp, and optional help link. Unread dot indicator. Clear All
button. Marks all as read when panel opens.
Same showToast(message, type, helpSection) signature — all 842
callers unchanged. Deduplication preserved. Updated version modal
and helper What's New.
Three issues fixed:
1. Stale discography data from a previous Artists page search was used
instead of fetching for the current library artist. Now detects
library page context and forces fresh fetch when names differ.
2. Enhanced view may not be loaded, so metadata IDs (spotify/itunes/
deezer) are fetched from the enhanced endpoint on demand.
3. Fixed undefined spotifyId reference — now uses properly scoped
metadataArtistId variable.
Falls back to name-based search when no metadata IDs are available.
Better error message directs users to Artists page as alternative.
The button called openDiscographyModal() which expected discography
data in artistsPageState — but the library page never populated it.
Now fetches discography on-demand from /api/artist/<id>/discography
when called from the library page, using the artist's DB ID and name.
Dashboard Recent Syncs and Sync page history were showing album
downloads, wishlist processing, and redownloads alongside actual
playlist syncs. Now filters to only show entries with sync_type
'playlist' (or no type for legacy entries).
New tool card shows blocked source count. "View Blacklist" opens a
modal listing all blacklisted sources with track name, filename,
username, service icon, and time ago. Each entry has a remove button
to unblock. Empty state explains how to blacklist from Source Info.
Bar was using var(--accent) which can be dark/invisible against the
modal background. Now uses bright green gradient with glow shadow.
Also thicker (8px) and queries DOM fresh each poll tick to prevent
stale references.
Three separate table cells with fixed widths replaced by one compact
cell with a flex group. Buttons are 24px each, 2px gap, fade in on
row hover. Removes ~70px of wasted horizontal space per track row.
Artist Radio and Enhance Quality buttons moved from the page header
into the artist hero section (after badges, before genres). Add to
Watchlist stays in the top-right header where it was.
Pipeline parity: redownload/start now fetches full track details from
the selected metadata source (Spotify/iTunes/Deezer) for real
track_number, disc_number, and album context. Sets explicit album
context flags so post-processing uses the standard album download path.
Stuck batch fix: active_count was 0, decremented to -1 on completion,
so batch never detected as complete. Now initializes active_count=1
and queue_index=1 since we submit the worker directly.
Button timing: Download Selected handler wired up immediately before
streaming starts, reads from window._redownloadCandidates which
updates live as results arrive. No longer blocked by slow Soulseek.
Track number: _extract_track_number_from_filename requires separator
after digits so "50 Cent" is not parsed as track 50.
Progress: real download stats from /api/downloads/status. Handles
streaming sources showing "Processing..." when no transfer found.
Step 1 and Step 2 action buttons (Cancel, Search/Download) now render
in a sticky footer outside the scrollable body — always visible
regardless of how many results are shown. Footer has backdrop blur
and top border separator matching the modal glass theme.
Step 2 of the redownload modal now streams results as each download
source responds instead of waiting for all sources to finish. Tidal/
YouTube/Qobuz columns appear instantly while Soulseek searches.
Backend: search-sources endpoint uses ThreadPoolExecutor + NDJSON
streaming — one JSON line per source as it completes.
Frontend: reads the NDJSON stream, appends columns with fade-in
animation as each source responds. Download button enables as soon
as any results arrive.
Each source gets its own column with results grouped and sorted by
confidence. Visual confidence bars, format badges, and source-specific
metadata (Soulseek username/slots). Best overall match auto-selected.
Major redesign:
- All metadata sources shown as side-by-side columns (not tabs)
- Frosted glass modal background with blur(40px) saturate(1.4)
- Album cover art in header from DB thumb_url (resolved for Plex)
- 1100px width, all elements scaled up, white text on accent buttons
Bug fixes:
- Deezer: use global singleton client, title-only fallback search,
strip version suffixes from query
- Track.__init__: added missing popularity=0 parameter
- Overlay: dedicated .redownload-overlay class avoids CSS conflicts
New track_downloads table records every download with full source data:
service type (soulseek/youtube/tidal/etc), username, remote filename,
file size, and audio quality. Recorded at all 3 post-processing
completion points.
Source Info button (ℹ) on each track in the enhanced library view shows
a popover with download provenance: service, username, original filename,
size, quality, download date. Includes "Blacklist This Source" button
that stores the real username+filename (not guessed local filenames).
Removed broken "Delete & Blacklist" option from Smart Delete since it
had no access to real source data. Blacklisting now done exclusively
from the Source Info popover where actual provenance data exists.
Added blacklist CRUD API endpoints (GET/POST/DELETE /api/library/blacklist).
Three-step redownload flow in the enhanced library view:
1. Metadata Source — searches Spotify/iTunes/Deezer simultaneously,
shows results with match scores, flags current match
2. Download Source — searches all active download sources (Soulseek,
YouTube, Tidal, etc.), shows candidates with format/bitrate/size/
confidence, flags blacklisted sources
3. Download — starts download, polls for progress, deletes old file
on success, updates DB path
Also integrates the download blacklist into the download pipeline —
_attempt_download_with_candidates now skips blacklisted sources
automatically during all downloads (wishlist, playlist sync, etc.).
New redownload button (↻) on each track row in enhanced library view.
Post-processing hook deletes old file and updates DB track path after
successful redownload.
Track delete in the enhanced library now shows three options:
- Remove from Library: DB record only (existing behavior)
- Delete File Too: DB + os.remove() the file from disk
- Delete & Blacklist: DB + file removal + add source to blacklist
New download_blacklist table stores rejected sources (username + filename)
with CRUD methods. Blacklist will be checked by the download pipeline
and the upcoming track redownload modal.
Smart delete modal styled with the same glass/dark theme as other
SoulSync modals, with color-coded destructive options.
Dashboard enrichment chips show 'Yielding' instead of 'Paused' when
workers are auto-paused during downloads. Tooltips show 'Yielding for
downloads' for full context. Distinguishes user-paused from auto-paused.
Also handles edge case where user manually resumes a worker during
downloads — adds to override set so the loop doesn't re-pause it.
Override resets when downloads finish so next download session re-pauses.
CAA art can be higher resolution (1200x1200+) but quality is
inconsistent — some releases have cellophane-wrapped photos or
low-quality scans. Spotify/iTunes/Deezer art is lower res (640x640)
but consistently clean and official.
New toggle: Settings → Post-Processing → "Use MusicBrainz Cover Art
Archive for album art" (off by default). Applies to both embedded
art and cover.jpg downloads.
New "Server Playlists" tab (default on Sync page) lets users compare
mirrored playlists against their media server and fix match issues.
- Dual-column comparison: source tracks (left) vs server tracks (right)
- Smart matching: exact title first, then fuzzy artist+title (≥75%)
- Find & Add: search library to fill missing slots at correct position
- Swap: replace matched tracks with different versions
- Remove: delete tracks from server playlists with confirmation
- Title similarity percentage badge on each match
- Disambiguation modal when multiple mirrored playlists share a name
- Album art on source tracks, server tracks, and search results
- Cross-column click-to-scroll highlighting
- Filter buttons (All/Matched/Missing/Extra) with live counts
- Escape key and backdrop click to close modals
- Mobile responsive (stacked columns under 768px)
- Works with Plex, Jellyfin, and Navidrome
New dashboard section shows recent syncs as scrolling cards with
playlist art, source badge, match percentage bar, and health color.
Click any card to open a detail modal showing every track's match
status, confidence score, album art, and download/wishlist status.
Per-track data is now cached in sync_history.track_results for all
sync paths: server-sync (playlist→media server), download missing
tracks, and wishlist processing. SyncResult carries match_details
from the sync service. Both image URLs and matched track info are
preserved for review.
Features:
- Staggered card entrance animation, delete button on hover
- Filter bar: All/Matched/Unmatched/Downloaded
- Color-coded confidence badges (green/amber/red)
- Unmatched tracks show "→ Wishlist" status
- 32px album art thumbnails per track row
- Auto-refreshes every 30 seconds on dashboard
- Falls back gracefully for old syncs without track_results
Users who keep manual searches in slskd as reminders were losing
them when SoulSync auto-cleaned at 200+ entries. New toggle in
Settings → Downloads → Soulseek: "Auto-clear slskd search history"
(on by default, preserving current behavior). When disabled, both
the hourly cleanup automation and the full cleanup step skip the
search history maintenance.
Same song from different albums was blocked from entering the
wishlist by a name+artist dedup check. Added toggle in Settings →
Library → File Organization: "Allow duplicate tracks across albums"
(on by default). When enabled, the dedup is skipped — different
album versions of the same song can coexist in the wishlist for
complete discography downloads. The UNIQUE constraint on track ID
still prevents the exact same track from being added twice.
ETH address was wrong in the support modal. Also fixed clipboard
copy failing on HTTP (Docker) — navigator.clipboard requires HTTPS.
Added textarea fallback for insecure contexts, and shows the address
in a toast as last resort if both methods fail.
With metadata-only listing, tracks aren't pre-loaded. Now shows
loading overlay while fetching tracks via /api/tidal/playlist/<id>,
then dismisses overlay and opens discovery modal. Overlay is hidden
at every exit point (error, empty, success) to prevent it from
blocking the modal.
The metadata-only optimization broke two things:
1. Cards showed 0 tracks because tracks were no longer in the listing
2. Auto-mirror skipped all playlists because tracks array was empty
Fix: cards render instantly from metadata, then tracks are fetched
per-playlist in the background via /api/tidal/playlist/<id>. As each
playlist's tracks arrive, the card count updates and the playlist
is auto-mirrored. Also tried multiple V2 attribute names for track
count (numberOfTracks, numberOfItems, etc.) and fixed the card DOM
selector for count updates.
Status text and indicators now use fixed Material Design colors
instead of accent-dependent values — green for running/idle, amber
for paused, red for stopped, dim white for not configured. Readable
regardless of the user's chosen accent color.
normalize_string() was running unidecode on all text, converting
Japanese kanji to Chinese pinyin gibberish (命の灯火 → "tvanimedei").
Now detects CJK characters (kanji, hiragana, katakana, hangul,
fullwidth forms) and skips unidecode for text containing them —
just lowercases instead. Non-CJK text (Latin accents, Cyrillic)
still goes through unidecode normally.
"Believe" was falsely matching "Believe In Me" because SequenceMatcher
gives high scores when the search string is fully contained in the
match. Added a length ratio penalty: when cleaned titles differ in
length by more than 30%, the similarity score is multiplied by the
ratio (min/max length). This crushes prefix/suffix false positives
while leaving exact matches and cleaned variants (remastered, deluxe)
unaffected.
Playlist auto-sync was dropping tracks that failed iTunes/Apple Music
discovery — they never reached the wishlist or download pipeline. Now
undiscovered tracks continue through using available metadata: first
from the spotify_hint (embed scraper data with real Spotify track ID,
name, artists), then from raw playlist fields if a source track ID
exists. Album cover art from the mirrored playlist is included. Only
tracks with no usable ID or name are skipped.
Always-visible button in Spotify API section that clears the OAuth
token cache, pauses enrichment, and switches to the configured
fallback metadata source. Also fixed the dashboard service card to
show the actual active source name (Spotify/iTunes/Deezer) instead
of always showing "Spotify" with an amber fallback indicator.
New dedicated Explorer page with interactive node graph visualization.
Users select a mirrored playlist, choose Albums or Discographies mode,
and the app builds a branching tree: playlist root → artist nodes →
album nodes → track nodes. Supports all metadata sources (Spotify,
iTunes, Deezer) with source-aware discovery cache integration.
Features:
- Streaming NDJSON builds tree progressively as artist data arrives
- Circular artist nodes with photos, rounded album nodes with art
- SVG bezier connections that draw in on completion, fade on hover
- Click artist to expand albums, double-click album for track listing
- Single-click albums to select, Select All/Deselect for bulk ops
- Wishlist confirmation modal with per-album progress (NDJSON streaming)
- Artist nodes glow when any of their albums are selected
- Playlist picker with source tabs, discovery % gate (50% minimum)
- Zoom (scroll/pinch/buttons), pan (right/middle-drag), fit-to-view
- Metadata cache for discographies and album track listings
- Owned album detection from library database
- Fallback track-name matching when album names are missing
Plain (unsynced) lyrics were being saved with .lrc extension despite
having no timestamps, making them invalid for Plex and other players
that expect LRC format. Synced lyrics now write as .lrc, plain lyrics
write as .txt. Both types still get embedded in audio file tags.
Updated all file move/rename operations to handle .txt sidecars
alongside .lrc.
Enrichment chips now show live activity: 24h call count for all
services and daily budget usage (used/3,000) with gradient progress
bar for Spotify. Tracking is centralized in _get_enrichment_status
using cumulative stat diffs over a rolling deque — no worker files
modified. Added section header, "Configure →" label for unconfigured
services, and full 1h/24h breakdown in tooltips.
Single path template was missing _artists_list and _itunes_artist_id
context keys, so the collab mode first-artist extraction in
_apply_path_template had nothing to work with — $albumartist resolved
to the full multi-artist string. Added both keys matching the exact
pattern used by album and playlist modes, including the iTunes
spotify_album.external_urls fallback. Updated settings UI hints to
show $albumartist as available for single and playlist templates.
When a user manually matched an artist to a service ID then triggered
enrichment, the worker re-searched by name, failed to find a match,
and overwrote the status back to not_found — despite the ID being
valid. Now both Genius and AudioDB workers check for existing service
IDs before searching by name. If an ID exists (from manual match),
the worker uses it for a direct API lookup to enrich metadata while
preserving the matched status. Added AudioDB lookup-by-ID client
methods for artist, album, and track.
Top-level try/except in do_GET ensures an HTTP response is always sent
— previously, unhandled exceptions caused BaseHTTPRequestHandler to
silently close the connection (ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE). All callback
logging now uses the app logger instead of print() so output appears
in app.log rather than only Docker stdout. Added health check at / to
verify the callback server is running, and startup now logs the actual
bind address to help diagnose port conflicts.
Dashboard now displays all enrichment services as live-status chips
below the core service cards. Each chip shows Running, Idle, Paused,
Stopped, or Not Configured state with color-coded left border accents.
Unconfigured services appear dimmed with dashed borders — clicking any
configurable chip navigates to Settings → Connections and scrolls to
the relevant service section.
Also fixes the Spotify card always being labeled "Apple Music" when
using iTunes fallback — card now always says "Spotify" with an amber
"Using iTunes/Deezer" indicator when fallback is active.
Qobuz login was only available on the Downloads tab when Qobuz was
selected as download source. But Qobuz credentials are also needed
for the enrichment worker which runs independently. Users saw
"Connect Qobuz in Settings" on the dashboard but couldn't find it.
Adds a Qobuz section to Settings → Connections (same pattern as
Tidal's existing Connections section). checkQobuzAuthStatus() now
syncs both the Connections and Downloads tab sections. Login from
either tab updates both. No backend changes — same API endpoints.
The tooltip only checked paused/authenticated/idle/running states.
When Spotify was rate limited or daily budget exhausted, the worker
thread was still alive (sleeping in guards) so it showed "Running"
with no current item and stale 0% progress.
Now checks rate_limited and daily_budget.exhausted before running:
- Rate limited: "Rate Limited — Waiting Xm for rate limit to clear"
- Budget exhausted: "Daily Limit Reached — Resets in Xh Xm"
- No current item: "Waiting for next item..." instead of blank
Also adds rate_limit info object to get_stats() response for the
countdown display.
Cache maintenance:
- Input validation rejects junk entities (Unknown Artist, empty names)
from being cached, with exemptions for synthetic entries (_features,
_tracks suffixes)
- CacheEvictorJob expanded to 4 phases: TTL eviction, junk cleanup,
orphaned search cleanup, MusicBrainz failed lookup cleanup
- MusicBrainz null results now expire after 30 days (was 90) so failed
lookups get retried sooner
Cache health UI:
- Polished modal accessible from Dashboard "Cache Health" button and
repair dashboard health bar
- Shows health status banner (healthy/fair/poor), stat cards, source
breakdown with colored progress bars, type pills, and metrics table
- Repair dashboard shows compact bar with health dot indicator
downloadSelectedCategory() was passing only the category name to the
download function, which fetched ALL tracks in that category. Now
collects checked track IDs from checkboxes BEFORE closing the modal
(DOM is destroyed on close), then filters the fetched tracks to only
the selected ones.
If nothing is checked, downloads the full category (same as before).
Other callers of openDownloadMissingWishlistModal are unaffected —
the new selectedTrackIds parameter defaults to null.
The auth_tidal() endpoint was overriding the user's configured
redirect_uri with one built from request.host. In Docker, request.host
is the container hostname (e.g. "soulsync-webui"), not the external
URL the user configured in settings.
Now checks config_manager for the user's configured redirect_uri first.
Only falls back to request.host dynamic detection if no redirect URI
is configured.
Album art embedding now tries Cover Art Archive first (using the
MusicBrainz release ID from source ID embedding) before falling back
to Spotify/iTunes/Deezer URLs. CAA provides original-quality artwork,
often 1200x1200 or higher vs Spotify's 640x640 max.
Reordered _embed_source_ids to run before _embed_album_art_metadata
so the MusicBrainz release ID is available for the CAA lookup. Also
fixed hardcoded 640x640 FLAC picture dimensions — now detects actual
size from image bytes. Falls back to existing behavior if CAA fails
or no release ID exists.
When the fingerprint score is >=0.95 but title/artist don't match
(e.g. English expected vs Japanese returned), SKIP instead of FAIL.
A 95%+ fingerprint means the audio IS the correct recording — the
metadata mismatch is just a language/script difference, not a wrong
file. Prevents Japanese, Chinese, Korean, and other non-Latin tracks
from being falsely quarantined.
Happy path unchanged — matching title/artist still returns PASS at
the earlier check before this code is reached.
Previously, tags.clear() only cleared in memory — if any later step
threw (metadata extraction, API calls, album art download), the file
was moved with its original Soulseek source tags intact. This caused
album fragmentation in media servers when some tracks had MusicBrainz
IDs and others didn't.
Now the cleared tags are saved to disk immediately after wiping. If
enhancement succeeds, the file is saved again with full metadata
(identical to before). If it fails, the file has clean empty tags
instead of inconsistent junk — media servers group by folder structure
which is always correct.
Replaces the fire-and-forget button with a premium modal that shows
exactly which artists will be added before confirming. Features:
- Glassmorphic modal with stat cards, two-column artist grid, search
filter, collapsible ineligible section, and loading spinner
- Source-aware filtering: only shows artists with the active source's
ID (Spotify/iTunes/Deezer) as eligible
- Frontend and backend both paginate at 400 to avoid SQLite variable
limit (SQLITE_MAX_VARIABLE_NUMBER=999) that silently broke queries
above ~500 artists
- Backend source detection aligned with frontend — uses only the
active source's ID, falls back to configured metadata source
The bulk watchlist add had no Deezer ID support — artists with only a
deezer_id were silently skipped (artist_id stayed None). Also fixed the
source detection to use the actual ID field picked instead of a numeric
heuristic that could assign Deezer IDs to the wrong service column.
Fallback chain is now: active source first, then Spotify → iTunes → Deezer.
fix_finding() was using a potentially stale transfer_folder that was
only refreshed during scheduled job runs, not on manual fix attempts.
Now re-reads the transfer path from config before each fix, matching
the same logic used by _run_next_job().
Also surfaces fix failure reasons to the user — bulk fix now logs each
failure with finding ID and error, and the frontend toast shows the
actual error message instead of just "X failed".
When Spotify falls back to iTunes/Deezer (auth failure, rate limit, API
error), the manual match modals were storing numeric fallback IDs in
spotify_*_id columns, breaking Spotify links and metadata fetching.
Fix detects the actual provider by inspecting result IDs (alphanumeric =
Spotify, numeric = fallback) rather than checking auth status, which can
be misleading during rate limit bans. The frontend now passes the real
provider to the storage endpoint so IDs land in the correct column.
The background enrichment worker now caps itself at 3,000 processed items
per calendar day. Counter resets at midnight automatically. When exhausted,
the worker sleeps and checks every 5 minutes for a new day.
This is scoped entirely to the enrichment worker — user-initiated Spotify
API calls (searches, playlist ops, album lookups, etc.) are completely
unaffected. Budget status is exposed in the worker's get_stats() response
for the dashboard widget.
New "Download Discography" button in artist hero section opens a modal
showing the full catalog — albums, EPs, and singles — with filter
toggles, select/deselect all, and per-album owned/missing indicators.
Modal features:
- Glassmorphic design with artist image blurred background header
- Filter pills for Albums/EPs/Singles with instant grid filtering
- Album cards with cover art, year, track count, and checkbox
- Owned albums dimmed and unchecked by default, missing pre-selected
- Live NDJSON streaming: each album updates in real-time as processed
- "Process Wishlist Now" button after completion
- Albums sorted by track count (Deluxe first) to prevent duplicate
folder contexts from standard/deluxe edition ordering
Backend: NDJSON streaming endpoint POST /api/artist/<id>/download-discography
- Fetches tracks per album via active metadata client
- Adds to wishlist with dedup (no slow fuzzy matching)
- Streams one JSON line per album as it completes
- Works on both Artists search page and Library artist detail page
Added 7 new sections to version modal: Stream Source, YouTube Fix,
Completion Badges, Collab Album Handling, Per-Artist Sync, Stability
fixes. Updated helper What's New with 5 new entries.
New "Sync" button in the enhanced view header validates an artist's
library entries against files on disk. Removes stale tracks (missing
files), cleans empty albums, and updates track counts.
- POST /api/library/artist/<id>/sync endpoint
- Checks each track's file_path via _resolve_library_file_path
- Empty album cleanup checks ALL tracks (not just this artist's)
to avoid deleting albums shared with other artists
- Toast shows results: stale removed, albums cleaned, or "All files
verified" if everything checks out
- Auto-refreshes enhanced view when changes are made
New setting in Settings → Library → File Organization: "Collaborative
Album Artist" — choose between first listed artist (default) or all
artists combined for $albumartist in folder paths and album_artist tag.
Per-source resolution:
- Spotify: artists array has separate objects — picks first directly
- Deezer: API already returns first artist only — no change needed
- iTunes: combined string ("Larry June, Curren$y & The Alchemist") —
resolves via artistId API lookup to get primary name ("Larry June").
Safe for "Tyler, the Creator" and "Simon & Garfunkel" because their
IDs resolve to the same combined name (no change).
Applied to both folder path ($albumartist template) and album_artist
metadata tag for consistency. Track artist tag always keeps all artists.
iTunes lookup only fires when source is iTunes (numeric ID + not Deezer).
Completion accuracy:
- Exact match only: "Complete" requires owned_tracks >= expected_tracks,
no more 90% rounding that hid missing tracks
- Deduplicate track counting: DISTINCT (title, track_number) prevents
duplicate album entries from inflating owned count (e.g., 3 "GNX"
entries with 12+1+2 rows counted as 12 unique tracks, not 15)
- MAX(track_count) instead of SUM for stored count — uses largest
album entry rather than summing duplicates
- file_path IS NOT NULL filter ensures only real files are counted
- Frontend uses real numbers instead of overriding missing=0 when
backend says "completed"
Multi-artist albums:
- Title-only fallback search when artist-specific search fails
- Finds "Anger Management" filed under "The Alchemist" when checking
from Rico Nasty's page
- Same confidence scoring prevents false matches
New "Scan Lookback" dropdown in the watchlist artist config modal.
Each artist can override the global lookback period (7d to entire
discography). Default is "Use Global Setting" (NULL in DB).
- Database: lookback_days INTEGER DEFAULT NULL on watchlist_artists,
auto-migrated on startup
- Scanner: checks per-artist lookback_days first, falls back to
global discovery_lookback_period if NULL
- Backend: GET/POST /api/watchlist/artist/<id>/config includes
lookback_days. Changing lookback clears last_scan_timestamp to
force a rescan with the new window
- Frontend: dropdown with 8 options in artist config modal
- Fully backwards compatible — existing artists unchanged
When clicking play on an "In Library" track, if the file can't be
resolved on disk (e.g., media server path not accessible from
SoulSync), silently falls back to streaming via the configured
stream source instead of showing an error.
Stream source:
- New setting in Settings → Downloads: "Stream / Preview Source"
- Options: YouTube (instant, default) or Active Download Source
- YouTube streams require no auth and are instant
- If active source is Soulseek, automatically falls back to YouTube
- Uses direct client search (bypasses orchestrator's download mode)
- Config key: download_source.stream_source
Docker:
- entrypoint.sh now runs pip install -U yt-dlp on every container
start, so Docker users always have the latest yt-dlp without
rebuilding the image
Navidrome fix:
- createPlaylist and other write operations now use POST instead of
GET. Large playlists (161+ tracks) exceeded URL length limits when
all songId params were in the query string, causing silent truncation
(e.g., only 6 of 161 tracks added). POST sends params as form body
with no size limit.
- Write operation timeout bumped to 30s (was 10s)
- _WRITE_ENDPOINTS set defines which Subsonic endpoints use POST
UX fix:
- Mirrored playlist cards now show "161/161 discovered on Spotify"
instead of just "161/161 discovered" — clarifies that discovery
means metadata matching, not library ownership
Security:
- Toggle in Settings → Advanced: "Require PIN to access SoulSync"
- Full-screen lock overlay on every page load when enabled
- PIN validated server-side against admin profile (bcrypt hash)
- Inline PIN creation if admin has no PIN set, change PIN button if set
- One-time session flag: verify-launch-pin sets it, /profiles/current
consumes it — every page load re-requires PIN
Recovery:
- "Forgot PIN?" on lock screen switches to credential verification
- User pastes any configured API key/token/secret (Spotify, Tidal,
Plex, Jellyfin, Navidrome, ListenBrainz, AcoustID, Last.fm, Genius)
- Server checks against all 9 stored values — any match clears PIN
and disables lock, with toast guiding to Settings to set a new one
Profile switch integration:
- Entering PIN during profile switch also sets launch_pin_verified
flag, preventing double-PIN prompt on the subsequent page reload
Updated version modal and helper What's New with this feature.
Subtle accent border glow breathes every 3s on the ? button until
the user opens the menu for the first time, then stops permanently
via localStorage. Helps new users notice the help system exists.
- Added 6 new sections to /api/version-info: Interactive Help System,
Rich Artist Profiles, Enhanced Library Manager, In Library Badges,
FLAC Bit Depth, Enrichment Worker Improvements
- Consolidated helper WHATS_NEW under v2.1 (no version bump) with
12 entries covering all recent features with Show me navigation
- Removed stale v2.2 key from WHATS_NEW that referenced unbumped version
Helper system phases 2-7:
- Setup Progress: onboarding checklist with progress ring, auto-detection
via /status, /api/settings, /api/library, /api/watchlist, /api/automations
- Quick Actions: accent pill buttons in popovers (service cards get
"Open Settings" and "View Docs" actions)
- Keyboard Shortcuts: full-screen overlay with key cap styling, grouped
by scope (Global, Player, Helper, Forms)
- Search: fuzzy search across 200+ help entries, 11 tours, and shortcuts
with cross-page navigation via _guessPageFromSelector()
- What's New: version-tagged highlights with "Show me" navigation,
red badge on ? button for unseen versions, older version cycling
- Troubleshoot: scans dashboard service cards for disconnected/error
states, shows fix steps with action buttons, "All Clear" when healthy
- Contextual menu: page-aware tour suggestion at top of menu
- Ctrl+K / Cmd+K opens helper search globally
- First-launch welcome tooltip with pulsing ? button
- Redesigned floating button (48px, accent gradient, glass effect)
- Redesigned menu (unified card panel, accent left-stripe on contextual)
Enrichment worker fixes:
- AcoustID: individual recording matches downgraded INFO→DEBUG to reduce
log noise (14 lines for one track → 1 summary line)
- Name normalization: strip " - Suffix" dash format (Spotify) same as
"(Suffix)" parens format across all 8 workers. Fixes false mismatch
on tracks like "Electric Eyes (Studio Brussels Remix)" vs
"Electric Eyes - Studio Brussels Remix" (was 0.54, now matches)
- Rewrote all 6 existing tours to match dashboard quality (was 31 steps total)
- Added 5 new tours: Discover, Stats, Import, Settings, Issues
- Fixed broken selectors in first-download and artists-browse tours
(referenced elements that only exist after user interaction)
- All tours now work on fresh page load — describe post-interaction UI
instead of pointing at empty containers
- Sync tour expanded from 5→11 steps covering all 8 source tabs
- Library tour expanded from 2→7 steps with filters, pagination, detail view
- Automations tour expanded from 3→6 steps with builder detail and signals
The artist name in album download modals is now a clickable link
that navigates to the Artists page with that artist's discography.
Uses the correct source-specific artist ID from the album data.
Works on enhanced search, artists page, and discover page modals.
Excluded from playlist, wishlist, and default contexts where the
subtitle isn't an artist name.
Clicking the button closes the watchlist modal and navigates to the
Artists page with the artist's discography loaded. Uses the correct
source ID based on the active metadata source (Spotify/Deezer/iTunes).
Search results now show "In Library" badges on albums and tracks
that already exist in the user's library. Badges appear with a
staggered fade-in animation after results render (non-blocking).
- Backend: /api/enhanced-search/library-check endpoint builds
owned album/track sets in 2 queries, O(1) lookups per result
- Frontend: async call after render, 30ms stagger per badge
- Tracks in library get play button rewired for direct playback
from media server instead of searching download sources
- Fixed enhanced search album card text not visible (info div
now absolute-positioned with gradient overlay)
- Download manager panel hidden by default for more search space
Watchlist cards: removed spring-bounce transitions, staggered
animations, and multi-layer hover shadows. Added CSS containment
and will-change for smoother scrolling.
Recent releases: backfill missing album cover art on page load
via metadata source lookup. Persists found covers to database.
New feature: click the floating ? button (bottom-right corner) to
enter help mode. Click any UI element to see a popover explaining
what it is and how to use it. Covers Dashboard + Sidebar + Watchlist.
- Floating button always visible above modals (z-index 999999)
- Click interception via capture phase prevents accidental actions
- Popover with smart positioning (right/left/below fallback)
- Arrow pointing to target element with accent highlight pulse
- "View full documentation" links navigate to the correct docs section
- Escape key dismisses popover or exits help mode
- Works inside modals (watchlist, artist config, global settings)
- 45+ contextual help entries covering sidebar nav, service cards,
stat cards, all 9 tool cards, watchlist modal buttons, artist
config options, content filters, and activity feed
- Separate helper.js file for maintainability
Artists page hero section:
- Large portrait artist photo (400x480px, rounded rectangle)
- Blurred saturated background from artist image
- 2.6em bold name with text shadow
- Real service logo badges (Spotify, MusicBrainz, Deezer, iTunes,
Last.fm, Genius, Tidal, Qobuz) — matching library page
- Genre pills merged from metadata cache + Last.fm tags
- Last.fm bio with read more/show less toggle
- Last.fm listener count + playcount stats (large bold numbers)
- Backend enriches discography response with artist_info from
metadata cache + library (all service IDs, Last.fm data, genres)
Album/Single/EP cards:
- Full-bleed cover art filling entire card with gradient overlay
- Album name + year overlaid at bottom over dark gradient
- Image zoom on hover, accent glow for dynamic-glow cards
- Responsive grid (220px desktop, 170px tablet, 140px mobile)
Similar artist cards:
- Full-bleed image cards matching library artist card style
- Gradient overlay with name at bottom, aspect-ratio 0.8
- Grid-controlled sizing via existing responsive breakpoints
Genre explorer (multi-source):
- Queries all allowed sources (iTunes+Deezer always, Spotify when
authed) via _get_genre_allowed_sources() helper
- Deezer genre support: genre_id mapping from search results,
one-time backfill from stored raw_json, album-to-artist propagation
- Genre deep dive deduplicates artists across sources
- Source dots on artists/tracks in deep dive modal
- Artist clicks route through source-specific client
- Album endpoint falls back across sources when IDs don't match
- Genre explorer cached 24hr in-memory, positioned at top of
Discover page below hero slider
All changes mobile responsive with proper breakpoints.
Genre explorer and deep dive modal now combine data from all available
metadata sources (iTunes + Deezer always, Spotify when authenticated).
Artists are deduplicated by name across sources, preferring entries
with images. Source dots (green/red/purple) indicate data origin.
Deezer genre support:
- Extract genre_id from Deezer album search responses via ID-to-name
mapping table (26 Deezer genre categories)
- Extract full genre names from Deezer get_album responses
- One-time backfill updates existing cached albums from stored raw_json
- Propagate album genres to Deezer artist entities
Cross-source album routing:
- /api/discover/album endpoint uses source-specific client (iTunes or
Deezer) based on the item's source, not just the active fallback
- Spotify path falls back to active fallback when album not found
- Track clicks use album_id directly instead of name-based resolution
- resolve-cache-album adds partial match and live search fallback
Other fixes:
- Genre explorer positioned at top of Discover page (below hero)
- Genre explorer results cached 24hr in-memory for fast reload
- Related genres computed from all albums by matched artists
- Artist clicks open Artists page with discography (not library detail)
- Discovery pool genre queries restored to source-filtered (Browse by
Genre tabs stay source-isolated as designed)
Discovery pool lists (matched and failed) now have a search input
that filters tracks client-side by name, artist, or playlist.
Matched tracks get a "Rematch" button that opens the fix modal in
cache-only mode — deletes the old cache entry and saves the new
match directly to the discovery cache via /api/discovery-pool/rematch.
This works regardless of whether a mirrored playlist track exists.
Failed tracks retain the existing "Fix Match" flow unchanged.
- Overview and setup sections now list all 6 download sources
- Services table adds HiFi (no auth) and Deezer (ARL token)
- Enhanced Search documents multi-source tabs (Spotify/iTunes/Deezer)
- Download Sources table adds HiFi and Deezer rows
- Post-processing explains AcoustID skip for streaming sources and
the new artist/title verification for streaming candidates
- File Organization documents $albumtype, $disc, and all template vars
- Quality Profiles adds callout for per-source fallback toggle
- Settings credentials list adds HiFi and Deezer entries
Each streaming source (Tidal, Qobuz, HiFi, Deezer) now has an "Allow
quality fallback" checkbox in Settings. When disabled, the source only
tries the exact quality selected — if unavailable, it skips and lets
the orchestrator try the next source. Default is ON (current behavior).
Modal now uses a fixed 600px height from open — results scroll within
a dedicated area instead of growing the modal and pushing inputs up.
This eliminates the layout shift that caused accidental result clicks.
Other fixes:
- Input fields now have labels (Track, Artist)
- Overlay dismiss uses mousedown with stopPropagation to prevent
accidental close when clicking near inputs
- Reduced results from 50 to 20 for faster response
- Clean minimal design matching app style
- Mobile: full-screen modal, stacked inputs with 44px touch targets
- Search bar: stripped heavy purple chrome, minimal dark input style
- Dropdown: inline flow instead of overlay, hides page header when active
- Section labels: flat uppercase text, no bordered glass boxes
- Artist cards: full-bleed photo with gradient overlay and name at bottom
(matches library page style), flexbox wrap layout with fixed dimensions
- Album cards: discover-style dark cards in horizontal scroll on desktop,
wrap to 2-per-row on mobile
- Track rows: clean flat list, subtle hover, smaller cover art
- Source tabs: compact pills with per-source accent colors
- Renamed grid classes (enh-artists-grid, enh-albums-grid, enh-tracks-list)
to avoid collision with generic .artists-grid rule
- Mobile: downloads-main-panel min-width:0 fix for 1190px overflow,
cards use calc(50% - 8px) for 2-per-row fill, touch-friendly targets
- Tidal and Qobuz SVG logos inverted on artist detail hero badges
- New Artist Radio button: clears queue, plays random artist track, enables radio
- Play buttons on Last.fm top tracks (hover reveal, resolves from library)
- Fixed inline JS escaping with data attribute delegation
Major version bump with 40+ commits of features and fixes:
- Deezer as 6th download source (ARL auth, FLAC/MP3, Blowfish decrypt)
- Cache-powered discovery: 5 sections + Genre Deep Dive modal
- Listening Stats page with charts and play buttons
- Picard-style MB release preflight for consistent album tagging
- Album Tag Consistency repair job
- Unified glass UI across dashboard, sync, and modals
- Mobile responsive overhaul for all pages
- Enrichment fixes: retry loops, rate limits, worker pause during scans
- AcoustID skip for trusted API sources
The enhanced view reorganize modal had a hardcoded default path template
instead of loading the user's saved template from settings. Now fetches
the saved album_path template from /api/settings on modal open.
- Stats page: database storage donut chart with per-table breakdown and total size
- Discover page: 5 new sections mined from metadata cache (zero API calls):
Undiscovered Albums, New In Your Genres, From Your Labels, Deep Cuts, Genre Explorer
- Genre Deep Dive modal: artists (clickable → artist page), popular tracks,
albums with download flow, related genre pills, in-library badges
- All cache queries filtered by active metadata source (Spotify/iTunes/Deezer)
- Stale cache entries (404) gracefully fall back to name+artist resolution
- Album cards show "In Library" badge, artist avatars scaled by prominence
- Stats page: full mobile layout with compact cards, charts, ranked lists
- Artist hero: stacked layout, compact image/name/badges, top tracks below
- Enhanced library: meta header/expanded header stack vertically, track table
collapses action columns into bottom sheet popover on mobile
- Automations: builder sidebar collapses, inputs go full width
- Hydrabase/Issues/Help: responsive stacking and compact layouts
- Fix grid blowout: add min-width:0 to stats grid children and overflow:hidden
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.
- 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.
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
Adds rainbow color interpolation synced to the same ~3s cycle as the
CSS rainbow-spinner animation. Applies to orb core, glow, pulse rings,
connection lines, and spark particles.
Tabs, cards, form rows, buttons, toggles, and inputs all get
tactile hover/focus/active states with lifts, glows, and accent
highlights to clarify which section the user is editing.
- 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
Failed tracks had candidates from the initial search but no way to
retry with a different source. Now clickable like not_found tracks
to open the manual match modal.
- 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
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.
Non-admin: 3-tab layout (Music Services | Server | Scrobbling).
Admin: just ListenBrainz, no tabs (unchanged).
Server tab auto-detects active server (Plex/Jellyfin) and shows
library name dropdowns instead of raw ID inputs. Modal has max-height
with scroll, tab bar with accent underline indicator.
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.
New pipelines: Startup Recovery (3 automations), Import Pipeline (3),
Weekly Deep Clean (5), Beatport Fresh (1). Fix deploy calling
nonexistent loadAutomationsPage — now calls loadAutomations so the
list updates immediately after deployment.
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.
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
Replace 3-column glassmorphic card wall with centered single-column
tabbed interface. Horizontal pill tab bar (Connections, Downloads,
Library, Appearance, Advanced) with category switching.
- Kill glassmorphic cards, accent gradient bars, and box shadows
- Clean section headers with subtle dividers
- Horizontal setting rows (label left, control right)
- Custom styled select dropdowns with SVG arrow
- Quality Profile moved into Downloads tab (conditionally visible)
- Help text wraps to new line below controls
- Path inputs and template inputs properly styled
- Mobile responsive (rows stack, tab bar scrolls)
- Zero functional changes — all element IDs and JS logic preserved
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
When >50% of files are flagged as orphans (likely a DB path mismatch),
findings are marked as warnings with mass_orphan flag. Fixing these
requires typing "witness me" to confirm — prevents nuking an entire
library from a false-positive orphan scan.
- 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
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.
New dropdown in Soulseek settings lets users filter out slow peers at
search time (Any/1/2/3/4/5/10 Mbps). Passes minimumPeerUploadSpeed
to slskd API in bytes/sec.
Also fixes quality scoring tiers which were using wrong units — old
thresholds (5000, 1000, 500) treated bytes/sec values as kbps,
making speed scoring effectively meaningless. Now uses correct
bytes/sec thresholds based on real peer data.
Dead file Fix button now adds the track to wishlist for re-download
instead of just removing the DB entry. Builds full wishlist-compatible
track data from DB (artist, album, artwork, IDs) so the download
pipeline can process it like any other wishlist item.
- 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
- Add navigation triggers for Beatport bubbles on sync page load, Beatport
tab switch, and rebuild tab activation (mirroring artist bubble pattern)
- Register download bubbles for Beatport releases (albums, EPs, singles)
which were only created for chart/playlist downloads
- Extend modal close cleanup to handle beatport_release_ prefix
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
- "Sync to Server" button appears for Beatport chart/playlist downloads
- Starts media server sync via /api/sync/start with live progress bar
- Progress area renders below all modal buttons with matched/failed counts
- Cancel button to abort sync mid-way, auto-cleanup on completion
- 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
Pin source info and search inputs at top of modal with independent
results scrolling, increase auto-search delay to 500ms, and add
confirmation dialog before committing a track match.
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.
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.
- 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
- 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
- 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
- Dark translucent background with backdrop blur instead of bright colored fills
- Animated flowing gradient border using CSS mask-composite technique
- Color-tinted labels and count badges (amber for watchlist, accent for wishlist)
- Shimmer sweep clipped inside button bounds
- Structured HTML: separate icon, label, badge, and shimmer elements
- Badge pulses when count > 0
- Worker orbs: 7s delay before collapsing back after mouse leaves header
Worker buttons shrink to floating colored orbs with physics-based
movement, spark emissions from active workers, connection lines, and
center gravity. Hovering the header expands orbs back to full buttons
with staggered spring animation. Desktop only, toggleable in Settings
under UI Appearance.
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
Saves successfully loaded playlist URLs to localStorage and displays
them as clickable pills between the input bar and playlist container.
Clicking a pill re-loads that URL; X button removes it. Max 10 per
source, most recent first. Source-colored hover accents match each
tab's brand styling.
Also fixes duplicate playlist bug — YouTube and Spotify Public now
check for already-loaded playlists before making API calls, preventing
broken duplicate cards when the same URL is entered twice.
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
- Redownload button on each album in enhanced view (admin only)
- Uses same flow as artist page: fetches API tracklist, opens Download
Missing modal with force-download option
- Register dashboard bubbles for library redownload and issue downloads
- Add library_redownload_ prefix to album download whitelist so it uses
1 worker with source reuse and sends full album context (release_date
for year in folder name)
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
- Play button on acoustid_mismatch, acoustid_no_match, track_number_mismatch, fake_lossless, dead_file, orphan_file findings
- Uses playLibraryTrack() for proper media player integration (track info, sidebar, album art)
- Data attributes for safe escaping instead of inline onclick strings
- Finding images increased from 56px to 150px with hover effects
- Improved detail panel spacing and media card layout
- Watchlist nullable migration now preserves profile_id column and composite
UNIQUE constraints when rebuilding the table
- Profile support migration always repairs missing profile_id columns on all
tables, even if the migration metadata key already exists (handles tables
rebuilt by other migrations)

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Introduce interactive discography filters on the artist detail page. Adds filter UI markup (category, content, ownership) in index.html and styles in style.css. Implements filter state, initialization, reset and apply logic in script.js; tags release cards with data attributes (live/compilation/featured) using regex heuristics, updates visibility and per-section owned/missing counts, and re-applies filters when releases are updated. Integrates filter setup into page init and resets filters when loading artist data.
Raise the default Jellyfin API timeout for bulk operations from 30s to 120s to better handle slow servers and large database syncs. Updated core/jellyfin_client.py to set bulk_timeout to 120, webui/index.html to show 120s in the settings input, and webui/static/script.js to use 120 as the fallback when loading settings. Aligns UI and client behavior to reduce timeout errors during heavy syncs.
Add a configurable API timeout for Jellyfin bulk requests and improve fetch retry behavior. UI: adds an "API Timeout (seconds)" field (15–300s, default 30) in webui/index.html and persists it via webui/static/script.js (load/save). Client: jellyfin_client.py now reads api_timeout from config_manager, uses it as the bulk timeout and computes a sensible non-bulk timeout (max(5, bulk_timeout//6)). Fetch loops for tracks and albums were hardened: reducing batch size now resets consecutive failure counters, log messages were clarified, and the stopping/retry thresholds were adjusted to avoid premature aborts at minimum batch sizes.
Ensure Jellyfin music libraries are loaded after users by chaining loadJellyfinUsers() with .then(loadJellyfinMusicLibraries()) at three call sites (settings load, server toggle, and connection test) to avoid race conditions. Also add database write-ahead log and shared-memory files (database/music_library.db-wal and database/music_library.db-shm).
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.
Improve Hydrabase response handling and add discography/album track helpers. core/hydrabase_client.py: extract peer counts from stats.connectedPeers, handle new "response" key and stats-only or unexpected response shapes (return empty instead of wrapping), and add search_discography() and get_album_tracks() to map Hydrabase results into Album/Track objects. web_server.py: avoid redundant Hydrabase round-trips by passing precomputed hydrabase_counts into the background comparison worker; prefer Hydrabase for artist discography and album track import when active (with Spotify fallback); and route album-context searches to Hydrabase when configured. These changes reduce duplicate network calls and improve robustness against varied Hydrabase payloads.
Add Hydrabase support as an optional/dev metadata source and comparison tool.
- Add core/hydrabase_client.py: synchronous Hydrabase WebSocket client that normalizes results to Track/Artist/Album types and exposes raw access.
- Update config/settings.py: add hydrabase settings (url, api_key, auto_connect) and getter.
- Update web_server.py: integrate HydrabaseClient, initialize client alongside the existing HydrabaseWorker, add auto-reconnect using saved config, persist credentials on connect/disconnect, add endpoints for status and stored comparisons, background comparison runner (Hydrabase vs Spotify vs iTunes), and adapt multiple search endpoints to optionally use Hydrabase as the primary metadata source with fallbacks.
- Update web UI (webui/index.html, webui/static/script.js, webui/static/style.css): add network stats and source comparison UI, pre-fill saved credentials, show peer count, load/display comparisons, update disconnect behavior to disable dev mode, and add Hydrabase badge styling.
Behavioral notes: when dev mode + Hydrabase are active, searches can be served from Hydrabase and comparisons to Spotify/iTunes are run in background; when Hydrabase fails the code falls back to Spotify/iTunes. Saved Hydrabase credentials are persisted for auto-reconnect; disconnect disables dev mode and auto_connect.
Files touched: config/settings.py, core/hydrabase_client.py, web_server.py, webui/index.html, webui/static/script.js, webui/static/style.css.
Increase Spotify client rate limit and reduce API contention during watchlist scans. Changes:
- core/spotify_client.py: Bumped MIN_API_INTERVAL from 0.2s to 0.35s (~171 calls/min) to stay safely under Spotify's ~180/min limit.
- web_server.py: In start_watchlist_scan and automatic scan flow, pause spotify_enrichment_worker and itunes_enrichment_worker before scanning (tracking with _enrichment_was_running/_itunes_enrichment_was_running) and resume them in finally blocks; added console prints for pause/resume. This prevents enrichment workers from contending for API quota during long scans.
- webui/static/script.js: Improved enrichment status tooltip logic to prioritize explicit currentType and then fall back to completion-based inference with explicit branches for artists, albums, and tracks for clearer progress text.
These changes aim to avoid API rate violations and make scan progress display more predictable.
Introduce a new Retag tool to track and re-tag previously downloaded albums/singles. Changes include:
- Database: add migration hook and create retag_groups and retag_tracks tables, indexes, and many helper methods (add/find/update/delete groups & tracks, stats, trimming).
- Backend (web_server): capture completed album/single downloads into the retag tables, implement retag execution logic (_execute_retag) to fetch album metadata, match tracks, update tags, move files, download cover art, and update DB. Add thread-safe globals, executor, and REST endpoints for stats, listing groups, group tracks, album search, execute, status, and delete.
- Frontend (webui): add Retag Tool card, modals, search UI, JS to list groups/tracks, search albums, start retag operations, poll status, and update UI; include help content. Add CSS for modals and components.
The migration is invoked during DB init to ensure existing installations create the new tables. The tool caps stored groups (default 100) and avoids duplicate track entries.
Add a release_date field to the Track dataclass for both iTunes and Spotify clients (iTunes: parsed from releaseDate, Spotify: from album.release_date). Propagate release_date into enhanced search results in web_server and into the client-side script so album objects include release_date when available. Also broaden playlistId matching in the missing-tracks process to include 'enhanced_search_track_'. Removed SQLite SHM/WAL files from the repo (cleanup of DB temporary files). These changes enable showing and using track release dates across the app.
Add per-track selection checkboxes, select-all control and a selection count to download modals (missing/YouTube/Tidal/artist-album). Implement JS helpers (toggleAllTrackSelections, updateTrackSelectionCount) to manage checkbox state, row dimming, button disabling, and to filter/stamp selected tracks with _original_index before sending to the backend. Update start/add-to-wishlist flows to use only selectedTracks and disable controls once analysis starts. Backend _run_full_missing_tracks_process now reads _original_index to preserve original table indices in analysis results. CSS updates (mobile.css and style.css) add styling for checkbox columns, responsive hiding logic for headers/columns, selection visuals (.track-deselected), and small layout/width tweaks.
Set m3u_export.enabled default to false and update the UI so the M3U auto-save checkbox is unchecked unless explicitly enabled. Changes: config/settings.py flips the default to false, webui/index.html removes the checked attribute from the checkbox, and webui/static/script.js adjusts the logic to only check the box when settings.m3u_export.enabled === true. This prevents automatic M3U exports for users who don't explicitly opt in.
Introduce M3U export feature with UI control and server-side saving. Adds a new m3u_export config option (enabled flag) and a checkbox in the settings UI. The web endpoint /api/save-playlist-m3u now checks the m3u_export setting (unless force=true), builds the target folder using a new _compute_m3u_folder() helper (leveraging existing template logic with sensible fallbacks), sanitizes filenames, and writes .m3u files into the computed folder. Frontend JS loads/saves the new setting, supplies album/artist metadata when auto-saving, and both autoSave and manual export now POST M3U data to the server (manual export uses force=true). Also changed browser download filename extension to .m3u and added minor logging/response behavior.
Introduce deferred album repair scanning and robust tracklist resolution plus UI/presentation tweaks.
- core/repair_worker.py: Add lazy MusicBrainz and AudioDB client accessors, per-batch folder queues, and register_folder/process_batch to defer folder scans until a batch completes. Implement cascading tracklist resolution (_resolve_album_tracklist) using Spotify/iTunes IDs, Spotify track→album lookup, album search, MusicBrainz release lookup, and AudioDB→MusicBrainz fallback. Add helpers to read Spotify track IDs, MusicBrainz album IDs, album/artist tags from files, MB/AudioDB fetchers, placeholder-ID filtering, and rename associated .lrc files when renaming audio files. Cache/locking and background-threaded scanning included. Improves resilience to missing/placeholder IDs and avoids circular imports.
- web_server.py: Register album folders for repair in post-processing and trigger repair_worker.process_batch when batches complete (multiple completion paths) so scans run after downloads finish.
- webui/static/script.js: Reduce unnecessary background work by skipping many fetches when the tab is hidden, and refresh dashboard-specific data on visibility change to ensure UI updates after OAuth or tab switch.
- webui/static/style.css: Replace glassmorphic backdrop-filters with opaque dark gradients for sidebar and main content to improve GPU rendering and visual consistency.
Overall: Adds reliable post-download album repair scanning using multiple metadata sources and reduces unnecessary client polling and heavy CSS effects for better performance and robustness.
Prevent accidental misconfiguration of Docker container-internal paths
(Slskd Download Dir, Matched Transfer Dir, Import Staging Dir) by making
them read-only by default.
Repurposes the non-functional Browse button into a per-field Unlock/Lock
toggle. Adds a warning blurb below the Download Settings header so users
understand these are container paths, not host paths.
Introduce an optional "Blasphemy Mode" that deletes the original FLAC after a verified MP3 copy is created.
- config: add lossy_copy.delete_original (default: false).
- webui/index.html & static script: add checkbox and warning in settings UI and persist the setting.
- web_server.py: make _create_lossy_copy return the MP3 path when it deletes the FLAC (otherwise None); validate the MP3 using mutagen before removing the FLAC; rename associated .lrc files if present; update post-processing to use the final processed path in logs and wishlist checks and to consider .mp3 variants when FLAC may have been removed.
Behavior is off by default and includes safety checks and logging to avoid accidental deletion of originals.
Add full-featured SpotifyWorker and iTunesWorker background workers to enrich artists, albums, and tracks with external metadata using batch cascading searches, fuzzy name matching, ID validation, and DB backfills. Update RepairWorker to re-read the transfer path from the database each scan, resolve host paths when running in Docker, and trigger immediate rescans when the transfer path changes; remove the static config_manager dependency. Also include supporting changes to the database layer and web UI/server (stats, controls, and styles) to integrate the new workers and reflect updated worker status.
Introduce a RepairWorker to scan the transfer folder and automatically detect/repair broken album track numbers (e.g. the "all tracks = 01" bug). The worker uses mutagen to read/write tags, fuzzy-matches titles against an album tracklist (Spotify/iTunes via a SpotifyClient), updates filenames and the tracks DB file_path when renamed, and caches album tracklists. It also adds DB schema support (repair_status, repair_last_checked, and an index).
Integrates the worker into the web server: initializes and starts the worker, and exposes /api/repair/status, /api/repair/pause and /api/repair/resume endpoints. Adds UI elements (button, tooltip), client-side JS to poll and control the worker, CSS for visuals/animations, and a new image asset (whisoul.png).
Introduce an "Active Downloads" section to the dashboard and wire up client-side plumbing to populate and update it. Adds escapeForInlineJs to safely embed values into inline JS attributes and replaces several inline onclick usages (search/genre/listenbrainz/artist buttons) to prevent quoting issues. Implements updateDashboardDownloads, createDashboardDiscoverBubble, and integrates dashboard updates into artist/search/discover flows (including register/discover download persistence and monitor hooks). Adds dashboard-specific CSS for discover/artist bubbles and minor style fixes (artist image sizing, keyframe formatting) plus a mobile CSS tweak for artist images.
Introduce a Hydrabase P2P mirror worker and integrate it into the web UI and server flows. Adds core/hydrabase_worker.py: a background thread with a capped queue (1000), enqueue API, rate limiting, basic stats (sent/dropped/errors), and logic to send JSON requests over a provided WebSocket (responses received and discarded). Integrates the worker into web_server.py (import, startup init, status/pause/resume endpoints, and enqueues queries from multiple search endpoints when dev mode is enabled). Adds UI elements, JavaScript polling/toggle logic, and CSS styling for a Hydrabase status button in webui (index.html, static/script.js, static/style.css) to display and control worker state.
Introduce a developer-only Hydrabase testing UI and backend WebSocket integration. Adds a simple dev-mode toggle (password 'hydratest') and new API endpoints (/api/dev-mode, /api/hydrabase/connect, /api/hydrabase/disconnect, /api/hydrabase/status, /api/hydrabase/send) that use websocket-client to connect/send raw JSON to a Hydrabase instance. Frontend changes include a Hydrabase nav/page, payload editors, response panel, dev-mode UI in Settings, associated JS handlers, CSS styling, and an icon asset. Also add websocket-client to requirements.
Introduce $artistletter and $disc template variables across config, UI, and backend to support artist-first-letter tokens and multi-disc albums. Update web_server.py to include disc_number in template context, prefer user-controlled $disc in templates, and create configurable disc subfolders using a new file_organization.disc_label setting. Update example and active config, web UI to expose the new variable and disc label selector, and script.js to validate, load, and save the new settings and substitutions.
Introduce a configurable "lossy_copy" feature that creates an MP3 copy alongside downloaded FLAC files. Adds default config (example and runtime) and UI controls for enabling the feature and selecting an MP3 bitrate. Implements _create_lossy_copy in web_server.py which checks the FLAC extension, respects the configured bitrate (default 320 kbps), locates ffmpeg (including a local tools/ffmpeg fallback), performs conversion, and attempts to update the QUALITY tag via mutagen. The feature is invoked after post-processing/moving downloads. Logs and graceful failures (missing ffmpeg, timeouts, tag errors) are included.
Introduce a new $quality template variable that is only substituted into filenames to avoid splitting album folders when tracks of mixed qualities are present. Updates include:
- web_server.py: populate template contexts with 'quality' (from context['_audio_quality']), strip $quality from folder components, substitute it only in the filename, and clean up empty brackets/parentheses/dashes when the variable is empty.
- config/config.example.json and config/config.json: document the new variable in the file_organization template variables string.
- webui/index.html and webui/static/script.js: update UI help text and client-side template validation to include $quality.
This prevents folder fragmentation for albums with mixed-quality files while still allowing quality information in filenames.
Add Deezer as a third metadata enrichment source. Enriches tracks with BPM and explicit flags, albums with
record labels, explicit flags, and type classification (album/single/EP), and backfills artwork and genres across
all entities. Includes background worker with priority queue, rate-limited API client, database migration, server
endpoints, and UI button with purple-themed status tooltip.
Integrated TheAudioDB as a metadata enrichment source. A background worker scans the library in priority order (artists → albums → tracks), matching entities via fuzzy name comparison and storing style, mood, and AudioDB IDs. Includes rate limiting, 30-day retry for not-found items, and a UI tooltip showing phase-based scan progress.
Add a UI button to disconnect Spotify and fall back to iTunes/Apple Music without restarting. Cache is_spotify_authenticated() with a 60s TTL to reduce redundant API calls (~46 call sites were each
triggering a live sp.current_user() call). Fix status endpoint calling the auth check twice per poll,
and ensure both OAuth callback handlers (port 8008 Flask route and port 8888 dedicated server)
invalidate the status cache so the UI updates immediately after authentication.
When a download fails in the Download Missing Tracks modal, hovering over the "Failed" status now shows a tooltip explaining why. The backend already tracked error_message on tasks internally but never sent it to the frontend. This surfaces those reasons and enriches them with detailed context — search diagnostics break down what happened per query (no results, filtered out, search error), retry failures include source counts and likely cause, and timeout/stuck messages name the state and duration. The tooltip uses a fixed-position popup to avoid clipping by the modal's scroll container, with scroll and visibility-aware dismissal.
The Soulseek "Test Connection" button could report success while the dashboard status remained "Disconnected" because the status endpoint only checked if slskd was configured (is_configured()), not actually
reachable (check_connection()). Switched to a real connection check with TTL caching (matching the existing
Spotify/media server pattern), update the status cache after successful tests, and refresh the UI immediately on success.
Split the enhanced search dropdown into distinct Albums and Singles & EPs sections using the album_type field. Changed the zero-tracks error from a cryptic red error toast to a clear warning message. Fixed the loading text to show the actual music source name instead of hardcoded "Spotify".
When clicking a partially-complete album on the Library page, the wishlist modal now shows which tracks are owned (dimmed with checkmark) and which are missing (orange border). Ownership data lazy-loads after the modal opens to avoid blocking the UI, using a batch DB query for speed. Also fixes albums like DAMN. showing "14/15" when all available tracks are owned — the frontend now trusts the backend's "completed" status instead of doing raw track count math against potentially inaccurate Spotify metadata.
Replace blocking DB matching in the Library artist detail view with a two-phase render pattern. The page now renders album cards instantly from Spotify/Itunes data , then streams per-release ownership results via SSE that update cards one-by-one.
Update version to 1.6 in sidebar and API. Add changelog for local import, enhanced tagging, mobile layout, and performance improvements. Fix track popularity field access for upcoming Spotify API changes (February 2026).
Added an Import feature that lets users process local audio files through the existing post-processing pipeline (metadata enrichment, cover art, lyrics, library organization). Files are placed in a configurable Staging folder and imported via two modes: Album mode (search/match files to a Spotify tracklist) and Singles mode (select individual files for processing). Includes auto-suggested albums based on staging folder contents and real-time per-track progress tracking.
- Add global discovery_match_cache table to cache successful track matches
(title+artist+provider -> matched result) across all discovery sources
- Cache check before API search in YouTube, ListenBrainz, Tidal, and Beatport
discovery workers; cache write after high-confidence matches
- Re-discovering playlists or overlapping tracks across sources skips API lookups
- Fix Spotify tab sidebar forcing 2-column grid on mobile via inline JS styles
- Add mobile responsive styles for Spotify playlist cards (stack layout vertically)
Add optional post-download audio fingerprint verification using AcoustID.
Downloads are verified against expected track/artist using fuzzy string
matching on AcoustID results. Mismatched files are quarantined and
automatically added to the wishlist for retry.
- AcoustID verification with title/artist fuzzy matching (not MBID comparison)
- Quarantine system with JSON metadata sidecars for failed verifications
- fpcalc binary auto-download for Windows, macOS (universal), and Linux
- MusicBrainz enrichment worker with live status UI and track badges
- Settings page AcoustID section with real-fingerprint connection test
- Source reuse for album downloads to keep tracks from same Soulseek user
- Enhanced search queries for better track matching
- Bug fixes: wishlist tracking, album splitting, regex & handling, log rotation
MusicBrainz library enrichment with real-time
status monitoring and manual control.
Features:
- Status icon button in dashboard header with glassmorphic design
- Animated loading spinner during active enrichment
- Hover tooltip showing:
- Worker status (Running/Paused/Idle)
- Currently processing item
- Artist matching progress with percentage
- Click-to-toggle pause/resume functionality
- Auto-polling every 2 seconds for live updates
Backend Changes:
- Added GET /api/musicbrainz/status endpoint
- Added POST /api/musicbrainz/pause endpoint
- Added POST /api/musicbrainz/resume endpoint
- Worker tracks current_item for UI display
- get_stats() returns enhanced status data
Frontend Changes:
- New MusicBrainz button component with tooltip
- Premium CSS styling with animations
- JavaScript polling and state management
- Positioned tooltip below button with centered arrow
Files Modified:
- web_server.py: API endpoints and worker initialization
- core/musicbrainz_worker.py: current_item tracking
- webui/index.html: Button and tooltip structure
- webui/static/style.css: Complete styling (240 lines)
- webui/static/script.js: Polling and interaction logic (115 lines)
Root cause: When album downloads completed, the frontend immediately closed
the modal and called /api/playlists/cleanup_batch, which deleted the batch
from memory. The wishlist processing thread (submitted to executor) would
then try to access the batch and fail silently because it was already deleted.
This explains why:
- Wishlist auto-processing worked (different timing/3-second delay)
- Manual "Add to Wishlist" button worked (different code path, before downloads)
- Album modal failed tracks didn't get added (race condition)
The fix prevents batch cleanup until wishlist processing completes:
Backend (web_server.py):
1. Mark wishlist_processing_started=True when submitting processing job
2. Mark wishlist_processing_complete=True when processing finishes
3. Block cleanup endpoint if processing in progress (return 202)
Frontend (script.js):
4. Handle 202 response and retry cleanup after 2-second delay
This eliminates the race condition while maintaining async processing and
ensuring all failed/cancelled tracks are properly added to the wishlist.
Updated startMissingTracksProcess in script.js to recognize discover_album_ IDs as album downloads. This ensures that albums downloaded from the Discover page (e.g., Recent Releases) are correctly organized into "Artist/Album" folders instead of being treated as flat playlists.
Library page was using album data from discography listing while Artists page used track.album from API. With iTunes, these could have different track counts, causing different album_type classifications.
- Updated handleAddToWishlist to use track.album data like Artists page does
- Added album_type copying to owned releases in merge_discography_data
- Added global currentMusicSourceName variable to track active source
- Updated discovery modal to show "Apple Music" when iTunes is active
- Replaced hardcoded "Spotify" in modal titles, headers, and descriptions
- Discovery modals now automatically reflect the correct music source (Spotify/Apple Music)
- Display "Apple Music" instead of "Spotify" in UI when iTunes is active source
- Enhanced connection test messages to indicate Spotify config/auth status
- Fixed similar artists requiring Spotify re-scan when Spotify becomes available
- Fixed hero slider buttons failing for iTunes-only artists
- Updated activity feed items to show correct source name dynamically
- Add similar artists fetching to web UI scan loop
- Add database migration for UNIQUE constraint on similar_artists table - Add source-agnostic /api/discover/album endpoint for iTunes support
- Fix NOT NULL constraint on discovery_recent_albums blocking iTunes albums
- Add fallback to watchlist artists when no similar artists exist
- Add /api/discover/refresh and /api/discover/diagnose endpoints
- Add retry logic with exponential backoff for iTunes API calls
- Ensure cache_discovery_recent_albums runs even when pool population skips
- Fix platform detection to include is_listenbrainz_playlist check when generating fix buttons
- Update openDiscoveryFixModal to check both listenbrainzPlaylistStates and youtubePlaylistStates
- Update searchDiscoveryFix to detect discovery_source and use appropriate search API
- Add /api/itunes/search_tracks endpoint for manual track search when using iTunes source
- Update selectDiscoveryFixTrack state lookup to include ListenBrainz
Fix button now works correctly for all platforms (YouTube, ListenBrainz, Tidal, Beatport) with both Spotify
and iTunes discovery sources.
