A failed lookup CALL (network/429/5xx/timeout, or an expired TVDB token) was
recorded as 'not_found' — permanently logging a transient blip as 'no match'
and parking the item for retry_days. Now mirrors the music workers' proven
pattern:
- New 'error' status, distinct from 'not_found'; enrichment_next retries BOTH
after retry_days, so errors recover and the queue still advances (no poison
loop). breakdown/unmatched/retry-all and the modal account for it (shown with
the outstanding/pending bucket).
- TMDB/TVDB clients raise on non-200 (429/5xx) so the worker records 'error',
not a false not_found.
- TVDB re-authenticates once on a 401 (expired token) instead of failing every
match for the rest of the run.
Seam tests: error!=not_found, error retried after window, 429 raises, TVDB
token refresh, UI accounts for errors.
The deep scan stores tmdb_id/tvdb_id/imdb_id from Plex/Jellyfin, but the workers
only ever searched by title+year and ignored those ids — re-deriving matches the
server already had exact (wasteful, and a title search can mis-match).
enrichment_next now surfaces the row's known provider id; the worker forwards it
and the TMDB/TVDB clients fetch details BY ID (one call, no /search) when it's
present, falling back to title/year search only for items the server couldn't
identify. Still grabs the overview/backdrop the scan doesn't capture.
- Paused enrich buttons now get music's exact amber/yellow treatment (gradient,
border, glow, hover) and an amber tooltip status — was just a flat opacity dim.
- Manage Workers button reuses music's .em-manage-btn* classes verbatim, so the
logo sits in the same gradient icon-circle with glow and the pill matches
pixel-for-pixel. Still wired by data-attribute (no inline handler), and music's
orbs/handler can't touch it (scoped to #dashboard-page). Dropped the old
bespoke .video-manage-workers-* CSS.
Every scan (incremental / full / deep, both entry points) now steps the
enrichment workers aside to cut DB lock contention — same as music. Mirrors
music's contract exactly: pause ONLY workers that were running (a user's manual
pause is left alone), track which we paused, and resume just those in a finally
so success, cancel, and error all clean up. Auto-pause is transient
(persist=False) so it never leaks into the saved <service>_paused flag.
Hooks are injected by get_video_scanner; the scanner is inert without them
(tests build it directly, no engine spun up). Isolated to the video side.
TVDB enriches shows only, but selectWorker hardcoded state.kind='movie', so
picking TVDB queried tvdb+movie (always empty) and rendered a bogus Movies
view. Each worker now declares its kinds (tmdb: movie+show, tvdb: show) and the
panel defaults to the worker's first kind. Backend was already safe (returns
empty for unsupported service+kind); pinned that invariant with a seam test.
Port of webui/static/worker-orbs.js into video/video-worker-orbs.js — same
exact animation (physics/draw copied verbatim), but pointed at the video
dashboard header + the TMDB/TVDB enrich buttons + Manage Workers hub. Own
window.videoWorkerOrbs global, activated by the video side's page events;
music's orbs file is untouched and never learns about the video side.
video-enrichment.js feeds it real status as telemetry for the inbound pulses.
7s idle → floating orbs around the SoulSync logo, just like music.
Pause/resume now write <service>_paused to video_settings, and the engine
restores each worker's saved pause when it's (re)built — mirrors music's
<service>_enrichment_paused boot flag. Isolated to video.db; music untouched.
The modal set no accent vars, so it fell back to the default purple. Now it
sets --row-accent on each rail row and --em-accent / --em-accent-rgb on the
panel from the selected worker — exactly how the music modal themes itself. The
modal's 23 rgba(var(--em-accent-rgb)) / var(--row-accent) rules now render in
TMDB light-blue / TVDB purple per selection.
Root cause both buttons looked black: --ve-accent was space-separated
(1 180 228) but used in rgba(var(--ve-accent), a) -> invalid 'rgba(1 180 228, a)'
so the color silently failed. Switched --ve-accent to comma-separated (matching
music's --accent-rgb) and fixed all fallbacks -> the accent + glow now render.
- TMDB: vibey light blue (56,189,248); TVDB: purple (168,85,247).
- TVDB brand mark inverted everywhere (dashboard button, modal rail, settings
frame) so the dark logo reads on the dark UI.
The buttons were flat and the reused .tooltip-content rendered in music's
default purple. Now everything is driven by --ve-accent (on the container so the
tooltip inherits it):
- buttons mirror music's .musicbrainz-button — always-on accent glow, accent
gradient/scale on hover, bigger glow when active; logo 24px @0.85 opacity with
drop-shadow; spinner uses the accent.
- tooltip-content border/glow/arrow/header + the status value are tinted with
the service accent (TMDB blue / TVDB green), overriding music's purple default
scoped to the video tooltip only. Music untouched.
- Logos (the URLs you gave) everywhere the services are listed: dashboard
buttons, Manage-Workers modal rail, and the settings API-config frames —
matching how music shows enrichment-service logos.
- Dashboard hover tooltips now reuse music's shared .tooltip-content/-header/
-body/-status/-current/-progress classes + the same positioning, so they look
identical to the music enrichment tooltips (Status / current item / Progress)
instead of my bespoke style. Music CSS untouched (shared classes, reused).
Existing DBs created before the schema dropped UNIQUE still have shows.tvdb_id /
movies.tmdb_id UNIQUE, so enrichment matching two items to the same id threw
'UNIQUE constraint failed' repeatedly. enrichment_apply now catches the
IntegrityError and retries without the id columns — keeps the existing
(authoritative) id and still records match_status + metadata. Non-destructive
(no table rebuild). Test simulates the legacy unique index.
Each video connection item (TMDB/TVDB) now has a Test button that behaves like
music's: saves the key, hits POST /api/video/enrichment/<svc>/test, and toasts
the result via the shared showToast — isolated (own endpoint, own data-attr
handler, reuses the .test-button CSS).
- Client .test() pings TMDB /configuration and TVDB /login to verify the key.
- Endpoint returns {success,message,error}; unknown service -> 404.
94 tests green; music untouched.
The video API-key frames had the real data-service attribute, so music's
settings.js verify loop (#settings-page .stg-service[data-service]) picked them
up and errored 'Unknown service: tvdb' — and it ran on the music side too
(shared DOM), so it WAS impacting music. Renamed to data-video-service: same
identical .api-service-frame look, but music's [data-service] selector can't
match them. Music untouched again.
The dashboard 'Manage Workers' button now opens a video enrichment modal that
reuses music's global .em-* modal CSS (identical look) but is entirely its own,
isolated JS: own #vem-overlay, event-delegated (no inline handlers, no music
function calls), targets /api/video/enrichment, shows only TMDB/TVDB with
movie/show coverage.
- Rail of workers (status dot + coverage), panel with pause/resume, per-kind
coverage cards (matched/not-found/pending segmented bars), and a paged
unmatched browser with retry (item + retry-failed).
- Polls the selected worker every 3s. The few invented sub-classes are styled
scoped to #vem-overlay so music is never affected. 87 tests green.
The whole-file 'music' substring check tripped on a comment ('only polls on the
video side, so the engine isn't spun up on the music side'). Replaced with the
meaningful checks: no music API path (/api/enrichment/) and no music modal call
(openEnrichmentManager).
Brings the worker buttons back onto the video dashboard header as real, live
controls — isolated (own CSS classes + own JS + /api/video/enrichment), music
untouched.
- TMDB/TVDB round buttons with per-service accent, a spinner that spins while
the worker runs, and a hover tooltip (status / current item / progress).
- video-enrichment.js polls /api/video/enrichment/<svc>/status (only on the
video side, so the video engine isn't spun up on the music side); click
toggles pause/resume. Manage Workers button fires soulsync:video-open-workers
for the modal (Phase 3).
86 tests green.
- GET/POST /api/video/enrichment/config saves the keys into video_settings;
POST rebuilds the engine (stop old workers, rebuild clients with new keys) so
they pick up the change live.
- video-settings.js loads the saved keys into the TMDB/TVDB fields on the
Connections tab and saves them on change (workers enable once a key is set).
Backend is now end-to-end: key -> client.enabled -> worker matches the library
to TMDB/TVDB and fills ids + metadata. 91 tests green; real DB untouched.
Mirrors the music enrichment API so the shared Manage-Workers modal can drive
video workers by pointing at /api/video/...:
- GET services; GET <service>/status (worker.get_stats); POST pause/resume;
GET breakdown; GET unmatched (paged, kind/status/q); POST retry.
- Unknown service -> 404. Engine via the lazy singleton; DB queries via the
isolated video DB. 6 API tests (services/status/breakdown/unmatched/pause/
resume/retry/404) with an injected engine + fake clients.
Foundation for the video enrichment workers, mirroring music's per-source
columns/queries on video.db.
- Schema: tmdb_match_status/tmdb_last_attempted on movies; tmdb_+tvdb_ on shows.
Idempotent ALTER-TABLE migration adds them to existing DBs on init.
- VideoDatabase helpers (service+kind -> columns map):
enrichment_next (pending first, then not_found past retry window),
enrichment_apply (sets id/status/last_attempted + whitelisted metadata,
backfill-safe), enrichment_breakdown, enrichment_unmatched (paged), and
enrichment_retry. Same shape as music's enrichment API so the shared modal can
drive it. 30 DB tests green.
The servers already matched everything to their agents — we were dropping the
IDs. Now we store them:
- Plex: parse item.guids (imdb://, tmdb://, tvdb://); Jellyfin: parse
item.ProviderIds (added ProviderIds to the requested Fields).
- Stored on movies (tmdb_id, imdb_id), shows (tvdb_id, tmdb_id, imdb_id), and
episodes (tvdb_id) via the upserts.
- Dropped the over-strict UNIQUE on movies.tmdb_id / shows.tvdb_id (same title
can legitimately live in two libraries; we dedupe on server_id). Scanner now
wraps each upsert in try/except so one bad item can't abort a scan.
Tests: guid/ProviderIds parsing + IDs persisted. 38 video-DB/scanner tests green.
load() passed the plural API kind (movies/shows) to the card renderer + poster
URL, which expect the singular (movie/show). Result: movie cards fell into the
'shows' branch (bogus '0/0 eps') and poster URLs were /api/video/poster/movies/..
-> 404 -> no images on either tab. Now apiKind (plural) is used for the query
and cardKind (singular) for cards + poster proxy.
The Refresh/Deep Scan buttons already fired a scan, but the card gave no
feedback so it looked dead. Now it mirrors music's dashboard library card:
- a progress section (phase + bar + detail) appears during a scan, driven by
the shared scan events (real percent);
- buttons disable while scanning;
- the card hydrates on load/return — if a scan is already running, video-scan.js
re-emits progress and the card shows it;
- stats refresh when the scan finishes.
Reuses music's .library-status-progress classes. 84 tests green.
Handles big libraries (your ~8500 movies) like music does instead of rendering
everything at once.
- DB: sort_title populated article-aware on upsert ('The Matrix' files under M);
query_library(kind, search, letter, sort, status, page, limit) does all
filtering/sorting/paging in SQL and returns music's pagination shape
{page,total_pages,total_count,has_prev,has_next} + badge fields (resolution,
owned/episode counts).
- GET /api/video/library now takes those params (per kind) instead of dumping
everything.
- Library page: 75/page with ← Previous / Page X of Y / Next → (music's exact
controls/classes), Sort (Title/Year/Recently Added) + Owned/Wanted filter,
server-side search + A–Z. Cards gain a resolution chip (4K/1080p/…) and the
owned/wanted meta. Still not clickable.
124 tests green.
The scan runs server-side, so on load video-scan.js now polls
/api/video/scan/status and, if a scan is in progress, restores the live UI
(Cancel button, moving progress bar, phase) and resumes polling — instead of
showing Idle after a refresh. Also re-checks when the Tools page is shown.
Because it re-emits the progress event, the Library/Dashboard scan affordances
rehydrate too.
- Incremental now does smart early-stopping like music: skips already-known
items and stops after 25 consecutive known (server lists recent first),
instead of a blind fixed cap. Falls back to a full pass when the library is
near-empty (<50), matching music's small-DB behavior.
- Deep scan gains music's 50% safety threshold: if removal would wipe >50% of a
>100-row library, it skips (assumes a partial server response, not a real
emptying) — prevents catastrophic deletion.
- Full Refresh already matched (re-read all, upsert, no removal).
Added DB helpers (server_ids, table_count). Tests: early-stop skips known,
small-lib fallback, 50% prune safety. 122 tests green.
Dashboard endpoint now returns the active media server; the Tools card title
becomes '<Server> Library Scan' (e.g. 'Plex Library Scan'), matching how music
prefixes 'Plex Database Updater'.
The scan tool now behaves like music's, not just looks like it:
- Card matches: help '?' button, 'Last Scan' line, and the Movies/Shows/
Episodes/Size stats grid (populated from /api/video/dashboard on show + after
a scan). Same .tool-card-stats markup.
- Real progress bar: scanner fetches item totals up front (Plex section.
totalSize / Jellyfin TotalRecordCount) and reports a true percent as it
processes; the bar actually moves (movies → shows) instead of sitting at 100%.
- Cancel: the Scan button toggles to 'Cancel' mid-scan and POSTs
/api/video/scan/stop; the scanner checks a cancel flag between items and ends
in a 'cancelled' state. Mirrors music's stop affordance.
Tests: percent reported, cancel stops midway + saves only processed items, stop
route registered, tool-card structure. 117 video/integrity tests green.
The Library tab is entirely music-specific today (file-org templates, music
library paths, post-processing, conversion, listening stats), so hide all of it
on the video side via one rule. Future video library settings (root folders,
video naming) just need data-video-only to remain visible. Music side untouched.
Marked data-music-only (hidden on the video side): Music Videos Dir, Playlists
Folder, Playlist Folder Style, M3U Entry Base Path — all music-specific. Music
side unchanged.
- Paginate Jellyfin movie/series listings (StartIndex/Limit, 500/page) so large
libraries aren't truncated on full/deep scans; incremental stays a single
capped page.
- Per-item try/except in iter_movies/iter_shows (matches Plex) so one bad item
doesn't abort the scan.
- Skip Jellyfin episodes with no IndexNumber (consistency with Plex; avoids
ep-0 collisions). All three modes now solid for Plex + Jellyfin.
Rebuilt the Library page to reuse the music library's exact look — no
reinvention, just new data:
- Same classes: .library-container, .library-artist-card grid, .alphabet-
selector, .library-search-input, loading/empty states. Movies/Shows tab pill
is the only video-specific bit.
- Real posters via a server-side proxy: GET /api/video/poster/<kind>/<id>
streams the Plex/Jellyfin artwork (token stays server-side); cards fall back
to an emoji on miss. list_movies/list_shows now expose has_poster (no raw
server paths leaked).
- Client-side search + A-Z letter filter (article-aware) over the loaded set;
cards are divs (not clickable yet, per request). Scan button in the header
reuses the shared scan controller and reloads on done.
110 tests green.
Standardized the TMDB/TVDB placeholders to the same .api-service-frame
.stg-service accordion markup as every music API service (header +
toggleStgService accordion + body with API Key field + callback-info), plus the
same 'Expand All' header. No bespoke structure. Reuses the existing accordion
handlers (already defined, integrity test green).
On the video side the API Configuration section (Spotify/Tidal/Deezer/etc.) is
all music — hidden now (group marked data-music-only). In its place, a video API
Configuration group (data-video-only) with disabled TMDB + TVDB placeholders for
the metadata sources we'll likely use. Music side unchanged.
Video side was showing both the Music Library selector and the new Movies/TV
selectors. The music-library picker is irrelevant there (the Movies/TV mapping
replaces it), so hide it on the video side — music side is unchanged.
The Movies/TV selectors now save the moment you pick one — same as the music
'Music Library' selector right above them — instead of a separate 'Save
Libraries' button. Removed the button and the copied 'doesn't affect config
file' caption; a small inline status shows 'Saved'.
Right next to music's 'Music Library' selector, the video side now shows
'Movies Library' + 'TV Shows Library' dropdowns (data-video-only, hidden on the
music side). video-settings.js populates them from /api/video/libraries when
Settings opens on the video side and saves the choice back; the scanner then
reads only those libraries. Isolated IIFE, data-attr wired. 83 tests green.
The scan no longer blindly grabs every movie/show section — it reads the
libraries you map, like music's 'pick your Music library'.
- GET /api/video/libraries: discover the active server's Movies/TV libraries
(Plex sections by type / Jellyfin views by CollectionType) + current
selection. POST: save {movies, tv} per server into video_settings.
- sources.py: _build_source(movies_lib, tv_lib) filters to the mapped library;
get_active_video_source() (used by the scanner) loads the saved selection;
list_video_libraries() lists them unfiltered for the UI. Falls back to all
libraries when nothing is mapped yet.
- VideoDatabase.get/set_library_selection (per-server). 6 tests added; 33 green.
Video Settings was a 'coming soon' placeholder. Now it reuses the actual
#settings-page, shown identically for now (no hiding of music-only bits yet) —
the foundation for adding the Movies/TV library mapping next.
- video-side.js: SHARED_PAGES maps video-settings -> the music 'settings' page;
showPage sets body[data-video-page] and triggers the shared loadPageData
loader (same init music navigation uses) instead of a video subpage.
- CSS reveals #settings-page (and hides the video host) when
data-side=video + data-video-page=video-settings; id selector outranks the
blanket music-page hide. 81 tests green.
Plex specials/unmatched episodes can have a null index -> getattr(...,0) still
returned None -> 'NOT NULL constraint failed: episodes.episode_number'.
- Plex adapter skips episodes with no index (logged), passes a real number.
- upsert_show_tree defensively skips any episode missing season/episode number,
so no source can crash a scan. Test added.
The scan inherited the shared client's 15s interactive timeout and fetched
episodes per-season (one request each), so a big library read-timed-out
mid-scan (port 32400).
- Dedicated Plex connection for scans with a 120s timeout (built from the
shared config; doesn't touch the interactive client).
- Fetch a show's episodes in ONE show.episodes() call grouped by season,
instead of seasons()+episodes() per season — far fewer round-trips.
- Per-item try/except in iter_movies/iter_shows so one slow/bad item is skipped
and logged, never aborting the whole scan.
The visuals were off because I'd invented CSS/markup instead of reusing the
shared design system. Fixed to match music exactly:
- Dashboard Library card now uses music's full markup — header icon, Refresh/
Deep Scan buttons WITH their icons, and stat rows with icons (movies/shows/
episodes/disk). Same .library-status-* classes, no custom CSS.
- Tools 'Library Scan' card now mirrors the music Database Updater: a mode
dropdown (Incremental/Full Refresh/Deep Scan) + one Scan button inside
.tool-card-controls + the standard progress bar. Styling comes for free from
the generic music classes.
- Dropped bespoke .video-tool-btn/.video-scan-controls CSS and folded the
separate video-tools.js into the shared video-scan.js (one fewer file). JS
stays isolated only because it must hit /api/video + update video DOM.
110 tests green.
- New Tools page (video nav + subpage, mirrors music tools styling): a Library
Scan tool card with Incremental / Full Refresh / Deep Scan buttons + a live
status line. Room for more maintenance jobs later.
- Dashboard Library card now has Refresh (full) + Deep Scan buttons, like the
music dashboard.
- Shared video-scan.js controller: one place triggers + polls scans for all
surfaces (wires any [data-video-scan-mode]/[data-video-scan]); emits
soulsync:video-scan-progress/done. Library/Tools/Dashboard just listen — no
duplicated fetch/poll. video-library.js refactored onto it; dashboard reloads
stats on scan-done.
- All isolated IIFEs, data-attr wired (no inline onclick). video-tools added to
the nav (13 pages). 110 tests green.
Mirrors the music model (full_refresh vs smart incremental, plus deep_scan):
- incremental: only recently-added items from the server (Plex addedAt:desc /
Jellyfin DateCreated, capped); upsert; no prune.
- full: every item; upsert all (refresh metadata + add new); no prune.
- deep: every item; upsert; prune what the server no longer has (empty-scan
safety preserved).
scanner.request_scan/scan_sync take mode; /api/video/scan/request reads
{mode} from the body (default full); adapters take incremental=. Tests cover
deep-prunes / full-doesn't / empty-deep-safety / incremental-requests-recent.
- GET /api/video/library -> {movies, shows} from video.db (VideoDatabase.
list_movies/list_shows; shows carry episode_count + owned_count).
- Library page (video-library subpage, isolated video-library.js): tabbed
Movies/Shows grid of poster cards, count, empty-state. A 'Scan Library'
button POSTs /api/video/scan/request then polls /api/video/scan/status,
showing live phase/counts, and refreshes the grid when done.
- Reuses the music dashboard-header chrome (icon title, sweep hidden) + the
watchlist-button styling for the scan button; video-card grid styles added.
- All data-attr wired (no inline onclick); module is an isolated IIFE that
listens for soulsync:video-page-shown. 105 tests green.
Now: video.db -> scanner -> /api/video -> live dashboard + Library page, all
isolated from music. Scanner adapters await live Plex/Jellyfin validation.
Reads the active media server and mirrors it into video.db, adapting the music
scan pattern (ask the server, upsert, prune what's gone) — isolated from music.
- core/video/scanner.py: server-agnostic VideoLibraryScanner. Consumes a media
source (duck-typed) yielding normalized dicts; upserts movies + show trees,
prunes removed items, reports progress/state. Skips pruning when a scan
returns nothing (transient-failure safety). Background thread + scan_sync.
- core/video/sources.py: Plex + Jellyfin adapters that REUSE the shared
connected clients (MediaServerEngine) but own all video-section logic; produce
normalized dicts. (Validated against a live server by design; scanner itself
is fully unit-tested with a fake source.)
- api/video/scan.py: POST /api/video/scan/request, GET /api/video/scan/status.
- .gitignore: video_library.db + sidecars (mirrors music); tests inject a
tmp DB so none is ever created in the repo.
Tests: scan populate/prune/empty-safety/no-source-error, isolation guard
(core/video imports nothing from music), scan routes registered. 101 green.
Server (Plex/Jellyfin) is the source of truth, so every scanned row carries
(server_source, server_id) for upsert + stale-removal — mirroring how music
keys on server_source + ratingKey.
- schema: server_source/server_id columns on movies/shows/episodes (+ server_id
on seasons); unique (server_source,server_id) on movies/shows (multiple NULLs
allowed so wishlist rows never block).
- VideoDatabase.upsert_movie / upsert_show_tree: take normalized, server-
agnostic dicts (a Plex/Jellyfin adapter produces them — DB never touches a
media SDK), set has_file + media_files, and prune episodes/seasons the server
no longer reports.
- prune_missing(): removes top-level movies/shows the scan didn't see (cascades
clean children).
6 new tests (insert/update/file-replace, season/episode build+prune, top-level
prune); 18 video-DB tests green.
