Each /videos batch was 3 InnerTube pages + 0.4s sleeps (>1s → tripped the
slow-request WARNING) and carried the ~2KB continuation token in the URL, so
every batch dumped a giant warning line — a dozen per channel open. Now it's a
POST (token in the body, never the URL) fetching ONE page per call with no
server sleep, so each request is fast (<1s, no warning) and the frontend's 120ms
pacing keeps it polite. 17 youtube API tests green.
Channel pages re-fetched everything every open (re-stream + ~3s yt-dlp metadata).
Now we remember what we learn about a channel and serve it cache-first:
- schema: youtube_channel_videos (list) + youtube_channel_meta (avatar/subs/tags/
banner); dates stay in youtube_video_dates, merged on read. DB: cache_/get_
channel_videos + cache_/get_channel_meta (upserts COALESCE so refreshes never
drop fields).
- enricher: _enrich now REMEMBERS a channel — caches the full InnerTube catalog
(list, via new innertube_channel_catalog) + metadata + dates, not just dates.
Since it already sweeps followed channels, watchlisted channels get pre-warmed
in the background → opening them is instant.
- channel endpoint: cache-first. A remembered channel renders from cache with NO
network (returns from_cache:true); a miss resolves live (yt-dlp) and remembers
it. The /videos batch endpoint caches every page it streams.
- frontend: cache hit renders the full catalog instantly, then re-streams to
refresh QUIETLY (new uploads/date fixes); only the first (miss) load shows the
'loading full history' banner.
Live-validated (MrBeast catalog: 90/3 pages, all titled+dated). 190 tests green.
The channel page was capped at the recent 90 (yt-dlp flat, hard min(90,limit)),
so prolific channels (Ninja Kidz etc.) showed only ~90 of hundreds. Now it loads
everything via YouTube's InnerTube API, paginated by continuation token — each
page fetched once (O(n), light on rate limits), unlike yt-dlp offset batches
which re-scan from the start every time.
- core: innertube_parse_video_items (keeps title+thumbnail, not just dates) +
innertube_channel_videos_page(channel_id, continuation) → {videos, continuation}.
- api: GET /youtube/channel/<id>/videos?continuation=<tok> returns ~a batch of
videos (approx dates, refined from the date cache) + the next token.
- frontend: ytLoadAllVideos streams batches after the fast initial 90 render,
folding each into the year-seasons live — backfills dates on the videos already
shown AND appends older ones, re-rendering per batch (episode grid only when the
viewed season changed). Replaces the old date-only re-poll (this dates AND
expands). Safety ceiling 2000; a 'Loading full history… N so far' indicator.
Validated live (MrBeast: 30/page, clean continuation, all dated). 101 tests green.
- The standalone enricher now reports orb telemetry: stats()/pause()/resume();
/enrichment/youtube/status (+pause/resume) special-cased in the route. Added
the 4th header worker button (red ▶), WORKER_DEFS entry, and SERVICES wiring —
it's not on the socket so video-enrichment.js polls it every 3s. It animates
(idle → active orb + inbound pulses) while a followed channel's dates are being
fetched, like the TMDB/TVDB/OMDb orbs.
- Channel detail now uses the SAME standard watchlist button as shows/movies
(library-artist-watchlist-btn, ✓/+ icon, 'In Watchlist'/'Watchlist') instead
of a bespoke 'Follow' — consistency. Still wired to the channel follow action.
176 backend tests green; JS balanced; music untouched.
Flat listing has no upload dates, so channels showed one 'All Videos' season.
Now real year-seasons, filled from cheap sources and cached so they grow:
- core: parse_rss_dates / channel_recent_dates — one public RSS GET dates the
~15 most-recent uploads (no yt-dlp, no bot risk).
- db: youtube_video_dates cache table + cache_video_dates / get_video_dates.
- /youtube/channel merges cached + RSS dates onto the flat videos (year-seasons)
and caches what it learns; /youtube/video caches each fetched date too — so
expanding/wishing videos progressively fills the catalog's years, instant on
repeat. Dateless tail groups as 'Earlier videos'. Missing-only toggle hidden
for channels. 84 db + 84 youtube/api tests green.
Full day-one coverage still needs the YouTube Data API's publishedAt (optional,
yt-dlp can't match it cheaply) — RSS + cache is the no-key best.
A text search now also surfaces matching YouTube channels (not just the paste-a-
link path). search_channels() extracts the channels-filtered YouTube results
page (flat); API GET /youtube/search hydrates a 'following' flag. The search
page fires it in parallel with the TMDB search and appends a 'YouTube channels'
group when it returns (best-effort; never blocks/breaks TMDB results). Cards open
the in-app channel page. 82 youtube+api tests green; balanced; music untouched.
The channel avatar (and video thumbnails) are yt3.googleusercontent.com /
i.ytimg.com URLs; hotlink/CORS policy could blank them (failed <img> hides on
the watchlist, falls to initials on the wishlist orb) — which is why the poster
'vanished' on both pages.
Extend the /api/video/img proxy allowlist to YouTube CDN hosts (ytimg.com /
ggpht.com / googleusercontent.com, https-only, still SSRF-safe) and route all
YouTube art through it: VideoYoutube.img() helper used by the watchlist channel
cards, search chip, the wishlist nebula orb/season/still art, and the channel
detail avatar/banner/thumbnails. 2 img-proxy tests green; JS balanced.
Flat channel listing can't return descriptions, so selecting a video showed 'No
description'. Now we do a non-flat single-video extract on demand — the way the
TV nebula lazy-loads guest stars:
- core: video_detail(id) / shape_video() — description, views, likes, duration,
tags, channel, webpage_url (full extract, yt-dlp injectable for tests).
- API: GET /youtube/video/<id> — returns it AND backfills the description onto
the wishlist row (set_wishlist_video_overview), so re-opening is instant.
- Wishlist info bar (youtube): on select, lazy-fetch → real description +
eyebrow (date · duration · views) + a 'Watch on YouTube' link; cached on the
episode object. 'Loading details…' while in flight.
Mirrors the episode lazy-load + art-backfill patterns. 73 youtube+api tests
green; brace/CSS balanced; music untouched.
- Resolver: capture banner_url + separate avatar (by thumbnail id), keeping
per-video duration/views for the detail hero.
- query_youtube_wishlist reshaped to the EXACT TV-nebula shape: channel = show,
upload YEAR = season (newest first), video = episode (newest=ep1 within a
year), carrying source='youtube' + youtube_id + per-video source_id. Surrogate
int returned as tmdb_id so the nebula's int keying just works.
- New API: GET /youtube/channel/<id> (full channel detail — meta + deeper
uploads + following + per-video wished flags) and POST /youtube/wishlist/add
(per-video wish). DB: youtube_video_wish_state, remove_one_video_from_wishlist.
- Tests updated for the nebula shape + banner + detail endpoints. 82 DB + 69
api/youtube tests green.
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.
Season tiles showed the show poster because the wishlist had no season art. Now
stored + used: new video_wishlist.season_poster_url (SCHEMA_VERSION 11 + migration);
the get-modal captures each season's poster at add-time (owned -> /poster/season
proxy, tmdb -> direct); query_wishlist exposes season.poster_url; tiles render the
real season poster (falling back to show poster, then placeholder).
Backfill generalized: /wishlist/backfill-stills -> /wishlist/backfill-art fills
BOTH stills and season posters from the same cached tmdb_season call (it already
returns the season poster). The page fires it once when either is missing.
Tests updated/added: art backfill targets + season-poster set + endpoint. 104 passed.
The 'no episode images' was data, not a bug: existing episode rows predate
still-capture (81 rows, 0 stills). New /wishlist/backfill-stills fills them
cheaply — one cached tmdb_season call per (show, season), updating only rows
that lack a still. The show tab fires it once automatically when it sees missing
stills, then reloads so the images pop in.
DB: wishlist_still_backfill_targets + set_wishlist_still (won't clobber existing).
Tests: +2. Suites green.
A manual safety-net for the auto-promoter: queues episodes that have ALREADY
aired, are missing, and aren't yet on the wishlist. Upcoming episodes are left
alone (the calendar promotes them once they air), so it's a no-op on the current/
future weeks and useful when you page back to a past one.
- calendar_upcoming now returns the show's tmdb_id.
- /wishlist/check accepts {shows:[...]} -> by_show membership (db.wishlist_keys_
for_shows), so the button only counts/adds what's genuinely not yet queued.
- Calendar: computes aired-missing (air_date < today, !has_file), checks wishlist
membership, shows 'Add N missing to wishlist' when there's net-new; click groups
by show -> /wishlist/add, toasts, fires soulsync:video-wishlist-changed, recomputes.
Tests: +2 (wishlist_keys_for_shows, /wishlist/check by_show). Backend: 100 passed.
- 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.
Browse panel (was boring native dropdowns):
- Kind + Sort are now segmented pill controls; Genre + Era are horizontally
scrollable, edge-faded chip rows with an accent-glow active state; primary
'Browse all →' CTA. Genre chips rebuild when kind flips. Selection lives in
state.sel (no <select> reads).
More data per rail (so 'Hide owned' doesn't gut a shelf):
- /discover/list gains a 'pages' param (1–3): fetches that many consecutive
TMDB pages and concatenates them deduped in one response. Rails request
pages=2 (~40 items); trending is a fixed list so extra pages are skipped.
Cleanup: removed dead .vdsc-filterbar/.vdsc-select CSS.
Tests: +3 (discover routes registered; multi-page concat+dedup; trending
fetched once despite pages). API suite: 22 passed.
The page rendered every follow + airing-default show at once (DOM + all posters)
— slow once the watchlist grows. Now it pages like the library:
- /api/video/watchlist?kind=&search=&page=&limit= returns {items, pagination,
counts}; query_watchlist() filters by title + slices (effective list is
bounded, so compute-then-slice, not heavier UNION SQL).
- Page reworked to a single grid: Shows/People tabs each load their own page;
debounced search box; Prev/Next pager; tab badges show totals from counts.
- Only a page of cards (and lazy posters) render at a time.
4 tests added (DB paginate/search + endpoint). 82 video tests green.
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.
Settings → Video Source shows which server video uses (✓ Plex/Jellyfin), a
Plex/Jellyfin picker when both are connected, or a clear 'connect Plex or
Jellyfin' message when neither (Navidrome/Standalone are music-only and not
offered). The Library shows a non-breaking 'no video server' banner + disables
Scan until one is connected. Detail Pages prefs moved into their own 'Video
Preferences' group. /api/video/server GET+POST drives it.
A saved 'Where-to-watch region' picker in Settings → Detail Pages (19 common
regions, default US). The engine reads it for the providers in extras +
tmdb_detail (region in the cache key), and the detail page labels the section
'Where to Watch · <region>' so you know which market you're seeing.
Click any episode (owned or missing) to expand it: a larger still, full overview,
and the episode's guest stars (clickable to the person page). Lazy-loaded per
episode from TMDB by the show's tmdb_id and cached. New client.episode_detail +
engine.episode_extra + /api/video/episode/<show_tmdb>/<season>/<episode>.
After a couple seconds on a detail page, a muted trailer plays behind the hero
(Netflix/Disney+ style) with mute/unmute + stop controls; the backdrop fades back
when stopped. Stops on navigate-away/modal-open (no orphaned audio).
Gated by a 'Autoplay trailers in the billboard' toggle in video Settings →
Detail Pages (default on). Backed by billboard_autoplay in video_settings, read
via a lightweight /api/video/prefs. Tests updated for the new config field.
Owned detail pages sample the poster for the per-title glow, but preview/person
pages fell back to the theme accent because their TMDB images are cross-origin
(canvas taint). Added /api/video/img — a same-origin proxy restricted to
image.tmdb.org (SSRF-safe) — so:
- preview (tmdb) detail samples its poster via the proxy → real accent;
- the person page samples the portrait → per-person accent on the ring/glow/role.
Tests: route registered + proxy rejects non-tmdb URLs.
The log flood you saw was the OMDb worker hitting a 401 (invalid key) on every
owned title: it logged a full traceback per item AND marked each one
ratings_synced=1 — which would've stopped them ever retrying once the key was
fixed. Root-cause fixes:
- OMDBClient.ratings raises a distinct OMDbAuthError on 401 / 'Invalid API key!'
(vs a transient error vs a genuine no-data 200).
- Worker: on an auth error it PAUSES (transient, not persisted) with a reason
note + one warning, instead of churning the whole library; the item is NOT
marked synced. Transient errors no longer burn items either — they back off and
pause after 3 in a row. Only a genuine 'no data' marks an item synced. Warnings
are concise (no per-item tracebacks). get_stats exposes the pause 'note'.
- Fixing the key auto-recovers: saving a new/changed OMDb key re-queues every
still-unrated title (resets the wrongly-burned ones), and the engine rebuild
un-pauses the worker.
Seam tests: bad-key pause-without-burn, transient keep-item, ratings() raises on
401, key-change re-queues unrated. 227 video-suite tests pass.
Smart back (mirrors music's artist-detail): the top-left back button now
remembers where you actually came from, many layers deep. It keeps an origin
stack ({page} or {detail title}) and stamps each history entry with its layer
depth, so:
- the label is dynamic — '← Back to Search' / '← Back to The Bear' / '← Back to
<person>' — instead of a hardcoded 'Library'/'Back';
- backing out of the first layer returns to the page you started from (Search,
Watchlist, wherever), not always the Library;
- browser Back and our button both unwind the chain one layer at a time, in sync.
Fixes: search → person → back → movie used to mislabel as 'Library' and dump you
in the library.
Next level:
- Search isn't a blank box when idle — a 'Trending this week' rail (TMDB
trending, owned/preview annotated). Returns when you clear the query.
- Person page gets a 'Known For' hero rail (top titles by popularity) above a
full filmography now sorted chronologically (newest first).
Backend: TMDBClient.trending + engine.trending (+library annotation), route
/api/video/trending. Isolated; 237 video-suite tests pass.
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.
Next-level: real critic/audience scores beyond the TMDB star. OMDb (free key,
keyed by the imdb_id we already capture) returns IMDb / RT / Metacritic.
- OMDBClient (ratings + test); built as a non-worker 'ratings_client' on the
engine. _backfill_ratings runs in both lazy detail refreshes (overwrites, since
ratings are dynamic). schema v6: imdb_rating / rt_rating / metacritic on
movies + shows; show/movie payloads return them.
- Billboard renders branded rating badges (IMDb yellow, RT tomato/splat by
fresh/rotten, Metacritic green/yellow/red by score). Lazy refresh also triggers
when an imdb_id exists but ratings are missing.
- OMDb API-key frame in Settings (parity with TMDB/TVDB) + config GET/POST +
/enrichment/omdb/test.
Seam tests: OMDb parse, engine ratings backfill, apply_ratings + payload, config
includes omdb.
Phase 4: dynamic extras fetched LIVE per view (providers change, so not cached)
via GET /detail/<kind>/<id>/extras → engine.item_extras → TMDB
(videos + watch/providers + similar in one call).
- Trailer: a '▶ Trailer' action that opens an in-app YouTube modal embed (Esc /
click-away to close).
- Where to Watch: provider logos for the region (JustWatch via TMDB).
- More Like This: a poster row of similar titles linking out to TMDB.
Both movie + show pages; all keyless (same TMDB key).
Seam tests: extras parse (trailer priority, provider/similar shape), item_extras
gating on tmdb_id, route registered, markup hooks. (RT/Metacritic via OMDb needs
its own key — offered separately.)
- Movie cards in the library now drill into a movie-detail page (both kinds use
the same open-detail event / video-side navigation).
- New video-movie-detail subpage reuses the .vd-* hooks; video-detail.js is now
kind-aware (root() targets the active page by kind, billboard/links/actions
branch on movie vs show). Flat layout: billboard + a details strip (released /
runtime / studio / status / critic score / quality) + the shared Cast & Crew row.
- Lazy on-view backfill for movies too: engine.refresh_movie_art re-fetches TMDB
(cast/genres/backdrop/ratings) when missing, regardless of match status, via
POST /detail/movie/<id>/refresh-art. movie_match_info added.
Seam tests: movie refresh backfills cast/genres, movie_match_info, route
registered, movie subpage markup, cards clickable for both kinds.
Root cause: season posters / episode art backfill happen during a show's TMDB
*match*, but already-matched shows never re-run ('Retry all failed' only resets
not_found/error), so existing libraries never got the art.
Fix (Boulder's idea): fetch-on-view + cache. When a show detail opens and any
season lacks a poster, the page calls POST /detail/show/<id>/refresh-art →
engine.refresh_show_art re-fetches /tv/<id> via the TMDB client and backfills
season posters + episode art gap-only, regardless of match status. Cached, so
it's a one-time cost per show; runs once per view; re-renders when done.
Seam tests: refresh_show_art backfills a MATCHED show's seasons, needs TMDB
configured, show_match_info, route registered.
Brings the video modal to parity with music's:
- 'Process first everywhere' control (Movies/Shows/Auto) in the topbar — a global
setting that pins which kind every worker processes first. enrichment_next takes
a priority kind; the worker reads enrichment_priority each loop; GET/POST
/api/video/enrichment/priority persists it. Reuses music's .em-global styling.
- Needs-matching bar now has a live count, status filter (All unmatched / Not
found / Pending) and a debounced search (reusing .em-select / .em-search),
matching the music modal. Episode view stays read-only.
- Live glow (scoped to #vem-overlay): pulsing running dot, accent glow on the
selected worker row + active process-first/kind, and a pulsing 'now processing'
chip in the worker accent. Music's shared .em-* styles untouched.
Seam tests: priority pins kind in enrichment_next + worker honors the setting,
priority endpoint GET/POST + validation, modal feature markup pinned.
Season selection is now switchable via a view toggle (persisted): poster RAIL
(scrollable season cards w/ coverage), TIMELINE band (segments sized by episode
count, filled by owned), TABS (pills), and the LIST dropdown. All drive the same
selection; episodes fade in on change.
- Watchlist button is now REAL: toggles shows.monitored via POST /api/video/monitor
(set_monitored), reflects 'In Watchlist' state. show_detail returns monitored.
- 'Get Missing' + a 'Missing only' toolbar toggle filter the episode list to
unowned episodes (actual downloading is the future acquisition subsystem).
Seam tests for the monitor endpoint + bad-input guards; shell hooks updated.
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.
The deep scan stores tmdb_id/tvdb_id/imdb_id from Plex/Jellyfin, but the workers
only ever searched by title+year and ignored those ids — re-deriving matches the
server already had exact (wasteful, and a title search can mis-match).
enrichment_next now surfaces the row's known provider id; the worker forwards it
and the TMDB/TVDB clients fetch details BY ID (one call, no /search) when it's
present, falling back to title/year search only for items the server couldn't
identify. Still grabs the overview/backdrop the scan doesn't capture.
Each video connection item (TMDB/TVDB) now has a Test button that behaves like
music's: saves the key, hits POST /api/video/enrichment/<svc>/test, and toasts
the result via the shared showToast — isolated (own endpoint, own data-attr
handler, reuses the .test-button CSS).
- Client .test() pings TMDB /configuration and TVDB /login to verify the key.
- Endpoint returns {success,message,error}; unknown service -> 404.
94 tests green; music untouched.
- GET/POST /api/video/enrichment/config saves the keys into video_settings;
POST rebuilds the engine (stop old workers, rebuild clients with new keys) so
they pick up the change live.
- video-settings.js loads the saved keys into the TMDB/TVDB fields on the
Connections tab and saves them on change (workers enable once a key is set).
Backend is now end-to-end: key -> client.enabled -> worker matches the library
to TMDB/TVDB and fills ids + metadata. 91 tests green; real DB untouched.
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.
Handles big libraries (your ~8500 movies) like music does instead of rendering
everything at once.
- DB: sort_title populated article-aware on upsert ('The Matrix' files under M);
query_library(kind, search, letter, sort, status, page, limit) does all
filtering/sorting/paging in SQL and returns music's pagination shape
{page,total_pages,total_count,has_prev,has_next} + badge fields (resolution,
owned/episode counts).
- GET /api/video/library now takes those params (per kind) instead of dumping
everything.
- Library page: 75/page with ← Previous / Page X of Y / Next → (music's exact
controls/classes), Sort (Title/Year/Recently Added) + Owned/Wanted filter,
server-side search + A–Z. Cards gain a resolution chip (4K/1080p/…) and the
owned/wanted meta. Still not clickable.
124 tests green.
The scan tool now behaves like music's, not just looks like it:
- Card matches: help '?' button, 'Last Scan' line, and the Movies/Shows/
Episodes/Size stats grid (populated from /api/video/dashboard on show + after
a scan). Same .tool-card-stats markup.
- Real progress bar: scanner fetches item totals up front (Plex section.
totalSize / Jellyfin TotalRecordCount) and reports a true percent as it
processes; the bar actually moves (movies → shows) instead of sitting at 100%.
- Cancel: the Scan button toggles to 'Cancel' mid-scan and POSTs
/api/video/scan/stop; the scanner checks a cancel flag between items and ends
in a 'cancelled' state. Mirrors music's stop affordance.
Tests: percent reported, cancel stops midway + saves only processed items, stop
route registered, tool-card structure. 117 video/integrity tests green.
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.
