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

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)
- Single-worker mode for album batches (sequential downloads enable clean source reuse)
- Browse API integration to list files in a source's directory
- Failed source tracking per-batch to avoid retrying broken sources
- Graduated quality scoring for upload speed, queue length, and free slots

- Duplicate completion guard to prevent double-decrement of active worker count
- Dedicated logging for source reuse and post-processing diagnostics
When downloading an album/EP, perform a single album-level search on Soulseek to find a user with the complete album folder before falling back to per-track search. This improves album completion rates and ensures consistent quality across tracks.
ListenBrainzManager opens its own raw sqlite3 connection, bypassing MusicDatabase initialization. If it runs before MusicDatabase creates the tables, all queries fail with "no such table: listenbrainz_playlists". Added _ensure_tables() to ListenBrainzManager init that runs CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS for both ListenBrainz tables — a no-op when they already exist, but creates them if MusicDatabase hasn't run yet.
- Expose suffix, bitRate, and path fields on NavidromeTrack from the Subsonic API response
- Add fallback in insert_or_update_media_track() to populate file_path and bitrate for Navidrome tracks, fixing the Quality Scanner
returning 0 results
- Increase ListenBrainz playlist cache limit from 4 to 25 per type
- Add sub-tab grouping in the Recommendations tab (Weekly Jams, Weekly Exploration, Top Discoveries, etc.)
Two fixes for iTunes integration:
1. iTunes failed tracks now properly added to wishlist
- Root cause: iTunes tracks had no 'album' field (unlike Spotify)
- Fix: Added album information to each track in get_album_tracks()
- Tracks now include: album id, name, images, release_date
2. Remove ' - Single' suffix from iTunes album names
- Root cause: iTunes API includes ' - Single' in collectionName
- Fix: Added _clean_album_name() helper method
- Strips ' - Single' and ' - EP' suffixes from all album names
- Applied to all 6 locations where collectionName is used
Both Spotify and iTunes sources now work identically for wishlist
auto-processing when tracks fail or are cancelled.
When Spotify is enabled after populating similar artists with only iTunes IDs, the freshness check now detects missing Spotify IDs and triggers a refetch. This fixes the Discover page not showing data when switching from iTunes-only mode.
- 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
Implement dual-source architecture where iTunes serves as always-available
primary source and Spotify as preferred source when authenticated.
- Make watchlist scans provider-aware (manual and auto paths)
- Update discovery pool population to process both sources
- Update recent albums caching for both sources
- Create source-specific curated playlists (Fresh Tape, Archives)
- Add on-the-fly iTunes ID resolution for similar artists
- Add iTunes ID check to similar artists freshness validation
- Fix sqlite3.Row compatibility in personalized playlists
- Fix iTunes ISO 8601 date format parsing
- Update API endpoints to serve source-appropriate data
This ensures the app remains fully functional if Spotify becomes
unavailable (rate limits, auth issues, bans) by seamlessly falling
back to iTunes data that has been building in parallel.
Implements lazy loading of artist images in search results, artist pages, and similar artist bubbles to improve performance and user experience. Updates the iTunes client to prefer explicit album versions and deduplicate albums accordingly. Adds a new API endpoint to fetch artist images, and updates frontend logic to asynchronously fetch and display images where missing.
Adds iTunes fallback to SpotifyClient for search and metadata when Spotify is not authenticated. Updates album type logic to distinguish EPs, singles, and albums more accurately. Refactors watchlist database methods to support both Spotify and iTunes artist IDs. Improves deduplication and normalization of album names from iTunes. Updates web server and frontend to use new album type logic and support both ID types. Adds artist bubble snapshot example data.
Refactored artist scanning logic to use the active metadata provider (Spotify or iTunes) for fetching artist data, discography, and album tracks. Introduced helper methods to select the correct client and artist ID based on the provider, and updated image and similar artist handling accordingly. This enables watchlist scanning to work with iTunes when Spotify is not authenticated, improving flexibility and provider support.
Updated get_album, get_album_tracks, and get_artist methods to return data structures compatible with Spotify's API format. This includes normalizing image arrays, artist and album fields, and adding synthetic URIs and external URLs for better interoperability.
Introduces iTunes artist ID support to WatchlistArtist and database schema, enabling proactive backfilling of missing provider IDs (Spotify/iTunes) for watchlist artists. Updates WatchlistScanner to use MetadataService for provider-agnostic scanning and ID matching, and modifies web_server to support scans with either provider. Includes new database migration and update methods for iTunes and Spotify artist IDs.
Introduces core/itunes_client.py implementing an iTunes Search API client for music metadata, providing search and lookup for tracks, albums, and artists with rate limiting. Adds METADATA-FALLBACK-IMPLEMENTATION.md, a comprehensive guide comparing fallback strategies for music metadata, including anonymous Spotify access and iTunes, and outlines integration approaches for seamless user experience without requiring Spotify credentials.
Updates the method for obtaining the next cursor during track pagination to use the approach from PR #113, retrieving it from 'links.meta.nextCursor' instead of 'meta.nextCursor'. This ensures correct pagination behavior.
Eliminated unnecessary filtering of playlists by owner or collaboration status, as the Spotify API already returns all accessible playlists. This simplifies the code and ensures all relevant playlists are processed.
Rewrites playlist and track fetching to use Tidal's JSON:API endpoints with cursor-based pagination and batch track hydration. Adds robust rate limiting with retry logic, and introduces ISO-8601 duration parsing. This improves reliability, performance, and compatibility with Tidal's latest API structure.
Added a call to self.soulseek._setup_client() in DownloadOrchestrator to ensure the Soulseek client configuration is reloaded when the orchestrator is initialized. This helps keep the client settings in sync with the latest configuration.
Introduces new filters for live versions, remixes, acoustic versions, and compilation albums to the watchlist artist configuration. Updates the database schema, backend API, and web UI to support these options, allowing users to customize which content types are included for each artist in their watchlist.
Introduces a reload_config method to SpotifyClient and refactors ConfigManager to support reloading configuration from a file. Updates web_server.py to use the new config loading mechanism, ensuring configuration is loaded into the existing singleton instance and SpotifyClient is properly re-initialized after settings changes.
Introduces an async method to search for a query and automatically download the best result based on quality preferences and source priority. The method handles empty results, filters by quality, and logs the download process.
Implemented clear_all_completed_downloads in YouTubeClient to remove completed, cancelled, errored, and aborted downloads from memory. Updated DownloadOrchestrator to call this method, ensuring both Soulseek and YouTube completed downloads are cleared.
Introduces a new priority 0 query that combines artist, album, and title for improved matching, especially for YouTube and hybrid download modes. This helps better match tracks where the album is significant, such as soundtracks, and only applies when the album is not a generic label like 'single' or 'greatest hits'.
Adjusts matching weights for YouTube sources to rely more on title and duration, adds a shutdown callback to the YouTube client to prevent new downloads during shutdown, and enhances post-processing to reliably resolve actual YouTube file paths. Improves error handling for file removal, ensures no new batch downloads start during shutdown, and refines download monitoring to trigger post-processing on completed YouTube downloads. Also increases YouTube download retries and improves logging for debugging.
Enhances streaming logic to better support YouTube as a download source, including improved filename handling, fuzzy file matching, and search query generation. Updates format checks in the frontend to skip them for YouTube (always MP3). Refactors backend to use a unified download status API for both Soulseek and YouTube, and improves service test messaging based on the active download mode.
Introduces a DownloadOrchestrator class to route downloads between Soulseek and YouTube based on user-configurable modes (Soulseek only, YouTube only, Hybrid with fallback). Updates web server and UI to support new download source settings, including hybrid mode options and YouTube confidence threshold. Refactors YouTube client for thread-safe download management and bot detection bypass. Ensures quality filtering is skipped for YouTube results and improves file matching and post-processing logic for YouTube downloads.
