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
The ID resolver tried int() conversion first, which fails for text-based
IDs from Navidrome/Jellyfin. Now tries direct string match first (works
for both text and integer IDs), then integer fallback, then source
columns. Also added discogs_id to source column search. Fixes#323
Track and album delete with file removal now also cleans up associated
lyrics sidecar files (.lrc synced, .txt plain) that share the same
base filename as the audio file. Fixes#322
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.
_resolve_db_album_id was missing deezer_album_id from stored ID checks
and hardcoded Spotify for the name-based search fallback. When Spotify
was rate limited (common for new Navidrome users), no fallback was tried
and the album returned 404.
Now checks all stored IDs (spotify, deezer, itunes, discogs) in priority
order matching the active metadata source, and falls back through all
available sources for name-based search instead of only Spotify.
- 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.
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.
Per-artist log lines now show the full details string from the worker
(e.g. "5 albums, 0 new tracks (150 existing updated)") instead of
just "5 albums, 0 tracks". Finished message shows "library up to date"
when no new content is found instead of "0 successful, 0 failed".
Full Refresh now clears all soulsync library records and rebuilds from
file tags in the output folder. Reads tags via Mutagen, groups by
artist/album, creates DB records with stable IDs. Files stay in place.
Previously Full Refresh did nothing for standalone — just returned.
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'.
Playlist and single track downloads pass None as album_info to
_enhance_file_metadata. The downstream _extract_spotify_metadata
called .get() on it without a null guard, crashing with AttributeError.
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.
The gunicorn PR blocked direct Python execution with SystemExit.
Replaced with _DIRECT_RUN flag at top and startup block at bottom
so both paths work:
- python web_server.py (Werkzeug dev server, Windows compatible)
- gunicorn -c gunicorn.conf.py wsgi:application (production)
Switch the web UI from Werkzeug's built-in server to Gunicorn for a more stable production deployment path.
Keep a separate dev config so local runs still reload quickly, while the production path uses a dedicated WSGI entrypoint and cleaner startup behavior.
The main motivation is to reduce the websocket teardown noise and make the server behavior more predictable under the app's mostly background-driven workload.
Added -vn flag to all codec ffmpeg commands (MP3, Opus, AAC) to strip
video/image streams during conversion. Embedded cover art in FLAC
files caused ffmpeg to fail when the output muxer couldn't handle
the image stream, producing 0KB output files. Cover art is
re-embedded afterwards by Mutagen.
The dedup key (normalized_title, year) caused different albums from
the same year to collide when title normalization stripped too much.
The "prefer more tracks" logic then kept compilations over studio
albums.
Two fixes:
- Title similarity check: if normalized titles are <85% similar,
they're different albums, not variants — keep both
- Compilation deprioritization: studio albums win over compilations
and "best of" collections when they do collide
Move Hydrabase availability checks into metadata_service so source resolution owns the policy. Keep web_server delegating to the centralized helper and add tests for the enabled/disabled cases.
Move artist discography resolution into core metadata_service, introduce MetadataLookupOptions, and keep web_server focused on request handling. Add focused tests for the new service boundary and preserve current fallback behavior for now.
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.
Deep scan for standalone mode:
- Scans Transfer folder for all audio files
- Compares against soulsync DB records by file_path
- Moves untracked files to Staging for auto-import processing
- Removes stale DB records where files no longer exist
- Cleans orphaned albums and artists with no tracks
Incremental scan skips for standalone — library updates at download
time, no periodic scanning needed. Both changes are purely additive
and only activate when server_type is 'soulsync'.
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).
Single track ownership check was calling check_track_exists without
server_source, matching against all servers instead of the active one.
Album and EP checks already passed server_source correctly — this was
the only missing spot. Affects all server types.
Previously reused existing plex/jellyfin artist IDs, causing soulsync
tracks to be invisible on the library page (filtered by server_source).
Now always creates soulsync-specific artist and album records with
server_source='soulsync', avoiding PK collisions with hash suffixes.
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.
