End-to-end import for video grabs, mirroring the music side's rigor and the
Radarr/Sonarr standard, fully isolated in core/video + api/video.
- Importer: parse release -> ffprobe-verify (true resolution, reject corrupt/
samples) -> templated rename into Movie (Year)/ + Show/Season NN/ -> copy or
move, carry subtitles, upgrade-replace a worse copy.
- Library Organization settings: editable $token path templates + toggles
(transfer mode, verify, replace, carry subs, save artwork, write NFO,
download subtitles + langs). Stored in video.db; matches the music File
Organization section's look.
- Sidecar writer: movie.nfo / tvshow.nfo + full artwork set (poster, fanart,
clearlogo, season posters) from on-demand TMDB detail, and external .srt from
OpenSubtitles. Owned re-grabs resolve their library tmdb_id; tmdb_full_detail
bypasses the owned->library redirect so they enrich too.
- Import page: surfaces import_failed downloads, resolve by hand (library-first
-> TMDB picker -> force-place) or dismiss; fires a library refresh on place.
- "Grab whole season": episode-level batch (reuses searchInto + _autoPick).
- Brutalist redesign of the download modal sources + result cards.
All new logic has seam-level tests (pure parsers/planners + injected I/O);
sidecars/subtitles are best-effort and never break an import.
The video side gets its OWN automations at music-side parity, kept separate so
nothing on the music side breaks. First twin: Scan Video Library — tells the media
server to rescan the user's SELECTED video sections (movies/TV, never music), then
reads the result into video.db so freshly-downloaded media shows as owned.
Architecture (scope tags + video twins on the shared engine):
- Handler core/automation/handlers/video_scan_library.py — pure function with
injected I/O (server_refresh / run_video_scan); production lazily binds
refresh_video_server_sections() + the video scanner. Owns its own progress.
Lives on the SHARED automation side so it may import core.video (isolation only
forbids core/video & api/video from importing music, not the reverse).
- blocks.py gains a 'scope' tag ('both' generic / 'video' video-only / absent=music)
+ blocks_for_scope(). The music /api/automations/blocks now filters out video
blocks; new isolated /api/video/automations/blocks serves the video palette.
- automation_engine seeds 'Scan Video Library' (owned_by='video', schedule 6h) so
it appears ONLY on the video Automations page; ensure_system_automations now
honours owned_by + action_config. Music page excludes owned_by='video' rows.
kettui: seam-level tests for every handler path (happy/no-server/scan-error/never-
raises/mode), scope filtering (music excludes video, video gets generics, music
parity preserved), seeding (owned_by + mode), registration drift guard. 39 new
tests; full automation suite (288) + isolation guards green.
Foundation for the isolated video download settings. The Downloads tab is almost
entirely music-specific, so on the video side the music download sections are hidden
(video-side.css) and a data-video-only 'Video Download Folders' section takes their
place — an input (download) and output (transfer/library) folder, stored SEPARATELY
from the music soulseek.* paths in video.db's video_settings KV table.
- api/video/downloads.py: GET/POST /api/video/downloads/config (download_path,
transfer_path), registered in the video blueprint. Imports nothing from music.
- video-settings.js: loadDownloads/saveDownloads wired into onPageShown + the
video save-button chain.
- The shared 'Indexers & Downloaders' tab is left untouched (identical for both).
2 tests (round-trip + the isolation guard). Quality profile, video hybrid, and the
shared slskd block are the next phases.
api/video/youtube.py wired into the blueprint:
- GET /youtube/resolve — preview a pasted channel (meta + recent uploads) +
a 'following' hydration flag; no writes.
- POST /youtube/follow — {url} or pre-resolved {channel} → follow + wish its
recent uploads (capped 30). Returns channel + counts.
- POST /youtube/unfollow — {youtube_id} → un-follow (keeps wished videos).
- GET /youtube/channels — followed channels for the watchlist page.
- GET /youtube/wishlist — wished videos grouped by channel.
- POST /youtube/wishlist/remove — scope channel|video.
yt-dlp call lives behind resolve (injectable/mockable). 38 API tests green.
- api/video/wishlist.py: GET /wishlist (paged movie|show tab, or counts-only),
/wishlist/counts, POST /wishlist/add (movie OR show+episodes), /wishlist/remove
(scope movie|show|season|episode), /wishlist/check (hydration). Registered in
the blueprint.
- Dashboard 'wishlist' stat now reflects the real curated count (was a 0 stub).
Tests: +6 API (add movie/episodes, body validation, scoped removes, hydration,
routes registered). API suite 30 + DB suite 68 passing.
A curated follow-list for the video side, mirroring the music watchlist. v1 is
membership only — the monitoring/discovery engine is a later phase.
Backend:
- video_watchlist table (kind 'show'|'person', keyed on tmdb_id — the stable
cross-context id both carry; library_id kept when owned). NOT the existing
shows.monitored flag (that defaults to 1 / is library-only / has no people).
- VideoDatabase: add/remove/list/state/counts (upsert COALESCEs library_id +
poster so a TMDB re-add can't wipe known data).
- /api/video/watchlist {GET, /add, /remove, /check, /counts}.
- query_library now selects s.tmdb_id so show cards can carry the key.
Frontend:
- video-watchlist-btn.js: shared eye button (the music ya-watchlist-btn mirror)
— build/toggle/hydrate, one delegated capture-phase click handler, broadcasts
soulsync:video-watchlist-changed so pages can react.
- Watchlist page (new subpage + video-watchlist.js): Shows / People tab switcher,
poster grid to detail-page quality, reloads each visit, drops cards on unfollow.
- Wired the eye onto library TV-show cards (movies excluded — wishlist, not
watch) + hydrate on render.
Tests: 6 new (DB upsert/COALESCE/state/counts + endpoint roundtrip/validation).
76 video tests green. Other card surfaces (cast, search, similar, filmography)
are the same VideoWatchlist.btn(...) one-liner — wired next.
A new isolated Calendar page (/api/video/calendar) — every upcoming episode for
your owned shows across a real 7-day week (today first), as art cards sorted by
air time with a per-cell breathing colour glow.
- Air times: enrich shows with TVDB airsTime (new shows.airs_time column +
migration); cells show + sort by time, streaming (untimed/00:00) = "Anytime".
One-time background backfill re-queues already-matched shows for the time.
- Click an episode → styled modal (show backdrop hero, episode still/synopsis,
air date+time, owned badge, genres, "about the show"), with an explicit
"Open full show page" action instead of navigating on click.
- Isolated: reads only video_library.db, writes nothing to the music side.
Search any movie / show / person (TMDB multi-search) entirely in-app. Results
that you already own link straight to the library detail; the rest open a
TMDB-backed 'preview' detail that reuses the exact same Netflix billboard UI
(direct image URLs, nothing owned/enriched). Everything resolves back into
SoulSync — no external links on un-owned titles.
- Search page (video-search.js): debounced /api/video/search, grouped
movies/shows/people cards (reuses .library-artist-card) with owned/preview
ribbons. People open the person page.
- Source-agnostic detail (video-detail.js): loads from /api/video/detail
(library) or /api/video/tmdb (preview); art helpers pick proxy vs direct URLs;
tmdb shows lazy-load episodes per season; owned-via-tmdb-url auto-redirects to
the library detail.
- 'More Like This' now drills in-app (tmdb detail, redirects if owned); cast/crew
link to a new in-app person page (bio + filmography, each credit owned/preview).
Library credits now carry tmdb_id so owned-item cast is clickable too.
- Backend: TMDBClient.search/full_detail/person (+ shared _parse_extras);
engine.search/tmdb_detail/tmdb_season/person_detail; db.library_id_for_tmdb;
routes /search, /tmdb/<kind>/<id>, /tmdb/show/<id>/season/<n>, /person/<id>.
Isolated (one-way): video-only files, no music imports, music shell untouched.
Seam tests: search/full_detail parsing, tmdb_detail assemble+redirect, search +
person library annotation, library_id_for_tmdb, route registration, shell/JS
isolation. 234 video-suite tests pass.
Backend for the upcoming TV/movie detail pages, isolated to video.db:
- show_detail(id): show + seasons->episodes tree with owned/total roll-ups
(season 0 -> 'Specials', missing-season-row episodes still grouped).
- movie_detail(id): movie + owned flag + best media-file (resolution/quality).
- get_art_ref generalizes the poster ref to poster|backdrop; new
/api/video/backdrop/<kind>/<id> streams the hero art server-side (Jellyfin
Backdrop vs Primary handled).
- /api/video/detail/{show,movie}/<id> endpoints.
Seam tests for the tree roll-ups, owned/file, art ref, and both endpoints.
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.
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.
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.
- 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.
First wire from video.db -> UI, kettui-style.
- api/video/ : isolated Flask blueprint (registered at /api/video with one
additive line in web_server.py). Reads only video.db; imports nothing from
the music API or DB.
- GET /api/video/dashboard -> VideoDatabase.dashboard_stats(): live library/
download/watchlist/wishlist counts (real 0s on an empty DB).
- video-dashboard.js now fetches it and fills the stat cards + Watchlist/
Wishlist header badges (formatted bytes/speed); falls back to zeros on error.
uptime/memory stay at markup defaults for now (not video-domain).
- Tests: dashboard_stats counts (empty + populated), endpoint returns zeroed
JSON via a Flask test client, blueprint exposes the route, and the video API
imports nothing from music. 93 video/integrity tests green.
