Two Sonarr-parity features.
1) Per-episode live tracking. "Grab season" was headless (only a button label
changed); episode rows had a status span that was never populated. Now every
episode ROW shows its own live state — Searching → Downloading % → Downloaded
/ Failed — via epTrack() polling /downloads/status?id, matching the inline
movie tracker. Grab season lights all target rows at once; manual + per-source
auto grabs also light their row; reopening the modal resumes tracking in-flight
episodes (resumeEpisodeTracking via /downloads/active + search_ctx match).
Season batch grabs through the same payload as a manual grab (_pickAndGrab →
sendGrab(buildGrabPayload)).
2) Auto-wishlist airing episodes. New daily automation (video_add_airing_episodes):
reads the calendar for episodes airing TODAY for followed shows, skips owned
ones, adds the rest to the wishlist (idempotent). Handler uses injected seams
(calendar read + wishlist write) so it's unit-tested without a DB/server.
Registered + action block + seeded as a daily system automation (01:00),
owned_by=video.
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.
Reworked the whole sources/results area for a more premium, Netflix-y feel.
Results — flat divider list → real CARDS: a bold cinematic quality badge (resolution
over source), the release name as the hero, the meta as a row of crisp PILLS (codec /
audio / HDR / repack / group) plus a clean availability stat, then size · verdict · Get
grouped on the right. Cards have depth, a hover-lift, an accent edge on accepted
releases, and the auto/grabbed pick lights up with an accent ring + glow.
Sources — toned the full per-source colour wash down to a sophisticated dark-glass row
with the brand colour as an ACCENT only (left-edge light that extends on hover + the
glassy icon tile), so it reads calm and designed instead of busy.
All functional hooks preserved (data-vdl-card/grab, .vdl-res-main tracker dock, status
states, auto-pick). node --check + CSS balance clean; tracking/auto wiring tests green.
Two fixes from feedback:
1) Reopening the download modal now KNOWS a download is already running. The view
gets a persistent active-download banner at the top that looks the title up by
media identity (/downloads/status?media_id=) on every open and polls while active
— progress bar + release name + 'Track on Downloads ↗'. Suppressed while a result
card is already tracking inline (fresh-grab case) so there's never a double
indicator.
2) Result cards completely redesigned (third time's the charm): dropped the rounded
cards + big resolution tile for a flat, release-list layout (Radarr/Prowlarr
style) — hairline dividers, a small colour quality tag + source word on the left,
the RELEASE NAME as the hero line, dense inline meta (codec · audio · HDR ·
uploader · group) under it, then size · a compact ✓/✕ verdict flag · a compact
accent 'Get' pill. The selected/auto/grabbed row tints + rings in place, and the
live tracker still docks under the chosen row.
All video-only. node --check clean; 16 tracking/auto wiring tests + the status
endpoint test green.
After a grab (manual or Auto) the user now SEES what happened and can follow it:
- The chosen result card is spotlighted (Auto scrolls it into view) and grows a live
tracker: a progress bar that follows the real download + a 'Track on Downloads ↗'
button that closes the modal and jumps to the Downloads page. Polls the new
GET /api/video/downloads/status?id= until the download reaches a terminal state.
- A movie's detail page shows a live download chip (progress bar + %) for any in-flight
download of that title; clicking it jumps to Downloads. Looks up by media identity
via /downloads/status?media_id=&media_source=, polls while active, clears on
navigate-away. (video-detail.js)
- Result CARDS redesigned (the part you didn't like): a column card with a colour
resolution badge, a green 'accepted' edge, cleaner hierarchy, and the grab button is
now an accent 'Get' pill matching the source Auto button language.
Plumbing: new lightweight /downloads/status endpoint (by id, or by media for detail
pages); soulsync:video-navigate event in video-side.js to reach a top-level page from
anywhere; VideoGet.close exported so the tracker can dismiss the modal. All video-only.
Tests: status endpoint (by id + by media + null cases) in test_video_api.py;
tracking/detail/nav wiring in test_video_download_tracking.py. node --check clean;
isolation guards green.
