A fixed debounce can't fit a big library — 8500 movies + 4500 shows scan sequentially
through Plex's queue and can take 10-20 min, so the old 120s wait read the DB before
Plex finished and fresh downloads showed up late. Now Stage 1 (video_scan_server)
fires the rescan then POLLS the server until its scan queue goes idle, then emits the
done event.
- sources: PlexVideoSource.is_scanning (section.refreshing + activity feed, scoped by
media_type) and JellyfinVideoSource.is_scanning (scheduled-task state), plus
video_server_scan_in_progress() returning True/False/None.
- handler: pure wait_for_server_scan(scan_status, sleep, …) — grace, then poll every
interval until idle or a generous cap; falls back to the fixed wait only when the
server can't report status (None). debounce_seconds is now that fallback; new
max_wait_minutes caps the poll.
Seam tests for the poll logic (idle/poll/fallback/cap/lost-status), the handler wiring,
and Plex scan-status detection.
The deep-scan action types weren't selectable builder actions, and Scan Video Server
/ Update Video Database had no movie-vs-TV dimension — inconsistent with the rest.
- video_deep_scan_tv / video_deep_scan_movies are now proper builder blocks
(Deep Scan TV/Movie Library), not just system-automation action types.
- video_scan_server + video_update_database gain a media_type ('all'|'movie'|'show')
config + selector, threaded through. The post-download chain carries the scope on
the scan-done event, so a TV-only rescan updates only TV (stage 2 inherits it).
- refresh_video_server_sections / Plex+Jellyfin refresh_sections scope the server
nudge to the chosen library; auto_video_scan_library now nudges only its library.
- shared normalize_media_type() in sources; update_database skips cleanly when the
singleton scanner is busy. Defaults stay 'all' so existing chains are unchanged.
Seam tests for refresh scoping, scan-server scope+event, update-db scope/inherit/skip.
Video twin of music's 'Auto-Deep Scan Library', split in two because Movies and TV
are separate libraries — scanning the TV library must not pull in new movies and
vice-versa.
- scanner: add a media_type param ('all'|'movie'|'show', friendly aliases) that
gates the movies vs shows passes (and their pruning), plus an in_progress busy
guard so the singleton scanner can't be stomped by an overlapping run.
- video_scan_library handler: thread media_type through, skip cleanly when the
scanner is busy, and name only the scanned library in the summary.
- two system automations (owned_by=video, weekly deep scan, staggered start delays):
'Auto-Deep Scan Movie Library' + 'Auto-Deep Scan TV Library'. Distinct action
types (video_deep_scan_movies / _tv) because the seeder keys on action_type; both
reuse the one handler, scoped via action_config.
- builder block gains a Library selector (Movies+TV / Movies / TV) so custom scans
can scope too; card label/icon maps cover the video action types.
Seam tests for scanner scope + busy guard, handler scope + skip, registration set.
Mirrors the music flow: a finished download batch → refresh the media server → (after
it indexes) pull the new media into the DB — so a downloaded movie/episode shows as
owned without waiting for the 6h scheduled scan.
Two event-based system automations (owned_by='video'):
- 'Auto-Scan Video After Downloads' (video_batch_complete → video_scan_server)
- 'Auto-Update Video Database After Scan' (video_library_scan_completed → video_update_database)
Pieces:
- core/video/download_events.py: a callback registry (core/video can't import the
engine — isolation). The monitor publishes batch-complete; web_server bridges it to
automation_engine.emit('video_batch_complete', …), like music's web_scan_manager.
- download_monitor: fires the batch-complete event once, when the last in-flight
download finishes (none queued/downloading/searching left).
- video_scan_server handler (stage 1): refresh server, wait a debounce for indexing,
then emit 'video_library_scan_completed' (mirrors music's time-based completion).
- video_update_database handler (stage 2): incremental read (newest-first, stop after
25 consecutive known — same as music).
- blocks: 2 video triggers + 2 video actions (scope='video'); registration; seeds.
kettui: seam tests for both handlers (refresh/wait/emit, incremental read, error paths),
the event registry (idempotent register, isolated failures), and the monitor (fires once
on last completion, never while work remains). 298 automation tests + isolation green.
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.
