When using templates like "albums/$albumartist/$album/$track - $title",
post-processing created Transfer/ArtistName/ before computing the
template path, leaving an empty folder. _build_final_path_for_track
handles all directory creation based on the template — the premature
makedirs was redundant and incorrect.
- 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)
Changed ignore_cross_album default from True to False. Re-downloads of
the same song create separate album entries, so the detector was skipping
them. Users who want to keep compilations/greatest-hits intact can toggle
it back on. Updated help text to explain when to use this setting.
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
Manual scan path was only backfilling the active provider (e.g., only
Spotify IDs if Spotify was active). Now matches the auto-scan behavior:
backfills iTunes, Deezer, Spotify (if auth'd), and Discogs (if token)
for all watchlist artists before scanning begins.
Removed cross-guards that blocked wishlist downloads while watchlist scans
ran (and vice versa). Downloads use bandwidth, scans use API calls —
different resources. The per-call rate limiter handles any API contention.
- Automation engine: each handler now has self-only guard (no cross-block)
- _process_wishlist_automatically: removed watchlist scanning check
- Pipeline Phase 4: removed watchlist scanning check
- Manual watchlist scan endpoint: removed wishlist processing check
Users with large watchlists (6+ hour scans) will now see downloads
starting immediately instead of waiting for the scan to finish.
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.
Removed as_dict=True from all three OAuth callback sites. Spotipy will
return token string directly in future versions — our code only checks
truthiness so both dict and string work.
API Call Tracker:
- Save/load 24h minute-bucketed history + events to database/api_call_history.json
- Persists across server restarts via atexit + signal handler hooks
- New record_event() for rate limit bans (called from _set_global_rate_limit)
- New get_debug_summary() for Copy Debug Info — 24h totals, peak cpm with
timestamp, per-endpoint breakdown, and last 20 rate limit events
- Fixed race condition: events iteration now inside lock during save
Spotify Rate Limit Mitigation:
- Enrichment worker: max_pages=5 on get_artist_albums (was unlimited — artist
with 217 albums caused 22 paginated API calls, now capped at 5)
- Enrichment worker: inter_item_sleep raised from 0.5s to 1.5s
Spotify Re-Auth Fix:
- Both OAuth callbacks (port 8008 + 8888) now clear rate limit ban AND
post-ban cooldown after successful re-auth — Spotify usable immediately
instead of stuck on Deezer fallback for 5 minutes
- Auth cache invalidated on both global client and enrichment worker client
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
New repair job that scans track and album titles for live performances,
commentary, interviews, skits, and spoken word content. Creates findings
for user review — no auto-fix.
Configurable per content type (live, commentary, interviews, spoken word),
with optional album title scanning and tracks/albums scope toggle.
Fix action removes track from DB + deletes file, cleans up empty albums
and directories. Follows existing repair job pattern exactly.
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
Tidal, Qobuz, HiFi, and Deezer results were blindly taking the first
API result with minimal validation. Now all streaming sources use
score_track_match() — same 60% title / 30% artist / 10% duration
weighting as Soulseek, plus version detection penalties.
- web_server.py get_valid_candidates(): replaced loose title-sim check
with matching engine scoring, version penalty for live/remix/acoustic
- download_orchestrator.py: optional expected_track param enables
scoring in search_and_download_best (backward compatible)
- sync_service.py: passes spotify_track for validation
- Fixed wrong class name (MusicMatchingEngine not MatchingEngine)
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.
Runs at scan start after ID backfill — zero API calls, all DB lookups:
1. Metadata cache artist image (any source)
2. Deezer direct URL from stored deezer_artist_id
3. Deezer ID from metadata cache by name (even if not on watchlist row)
4. Album art fallback (iTunes artists have no artist images)
Also fixes update path for artists with no external IDs — falls back
to direct row ID update instead of silently matching zero rows.
- 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.
get_top_similar_artists now accepts require_source parameter to filter
by source ID in SQL. Previously fetched 200 artists then post-filtered,
but cycling logic (last_featured ASC) rotated artists without IDs to
the front, causing all 200 to be filtered out.
Both /api/discover/hero and /api/discover/similar-artists now pass
require_source=active_source so only artists with valid IDs are returned.
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.
$disc gives zero-padded "01", $discnum gives raw "1". Useful for
Plex-style naming like "102 - Track.flac" (disc 1 track 02).
Added to both _get_file_path_from_template and _get_file_path_from_template_raw
at all 6 replacement sites. $discnum always replaced before $disc to
prevent partial matching. No existing behavior changed.
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.
When _detect_album_info_web couldn't find a good Spotify match, the
fallback dict lacked album_image_url — so _download_cover_art silently
skipped the download even though the URL was available in the context's
spotify_album object.
Now _download_cover_art accepts optional context parameter and falls
back to spotify_album.image_url or spotify_album.images[0].url when
album_info lacks the URL. All 4 call sites updated to pass context.
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
- Test connection now shows "Discogs connection successful!" when
Discogs is the active fallback (was showing "iTunes")
- Spotify disconnect message shows correct fallback name
- 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_artist_id column to watchlist_artists table (migration)
- Add discogs_artist_id to WatchlistArtist dataclass
- Add to get_watchlist_artists optional_columns and constructor
- Add update_watchlist_discogs_id DB method
- Backfill loop includes Discogs when token is configured
- Add _match_to_discogs for cross-provider artist matching
- Backfill maps updated: id_attr, match_fn, update_fn all include discogs
- discogs_id was missing from BOTH the SQL SELECT and the artist dict
in get_artist_discography() — used by the library artist detail page
- This is the third location (after get_library_artists and
discography endpoint) where discogs_id was in the DB but not
included in the response
- 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
- get_album and get_album_tracks now try /masters/{id} first, fall back
to /releases/{id} — artist discography returns master IDs which are
in a different namespace than release IDs
- Fixes wrong album showing in download modal (master ID 3664443 for
GNX was hitting /releases/3664443 which is a different album)
- Add Discogs source override to all 6 artist/album/track endpoints
- Add discogs_id to _resolve_db_album_id lookup
- Remove upfront master detail fetching (was 15+ API calls, 40+ seconds)
- Discography loads from releases list only (~1 second, 2 API calls)
- Track counts populate on-demand via get_album_tracks when clicking album
- New get_album_tracks method: tries /masters first, falls back to /releases,
returns Spotify-compatible format with proper disc/track numbering
- Album type defaults to 'album' for masters without format metadata —
Discogs limitation, singles only detectable from individual release format
