When the fingerprint score is >=0.95 but title/artist don't match
(e.g. English expected vs Japanese returned), SKIP instead of FAIL.
A 95%+ fingerprint means the audio IS the correct recording — the
metadata mismatch is just a language/script difference, not a wrong
file. Prevents Japanese, Chinese, Korean, and other non-Latin tracks
from being falsely quarantined.
Happy path unchanged — matching title/artist still returns PASS at
the earlier check before this code is reached.
Previously, tags.clear() only cleared in memory — if any later step
threw (metadata extraction, API calls, album art download), the file
was moved with its original Soulseek source tags intact. This caused
album fragmentation in media servers when some tracks had MusicBrainz
IDs and others didn't.
Now the cleared tags are saved to disk immediately after wiping. If
enhancement succeeds, the file is saved again with full metadata
(identical to before). If it fails, the file has clean empty tags
instead of inconsistent junk — media servers group by folder structure
which is always correct.
Replaces the fire-and-forget button with a premium modal that shows
exactly which artists will be added before confirming. Features:
- Glassmorphic modal with stat cards, two-column artist grid, search
filter, collapsible ineligible section, and loading spinner
- Source-aware filtering: only shows artists with the active source's
ID (Spotify/iTunes/Deezer) as eligible
- Frontend and backend both paginate at 400 to avoid SQLite variable
limit (SQLITE_MAX_VARIABLE_NUMBER=999) that silently broke queries
above ~500 artists
- Backend source detection aligned with frontend — uses only the
active source's ID, falls back to configured metadata source
The bulk watchlist add had no Deezer ID support — artists with only a
deezer_id were silently skipped (artist_id stayed None). Also fixed the
source detection to use the actual ID field picked instead of a numeric
heuristic that could assign Deezer IDs to the wrong service column.
Fallback chain is now: active source first, then Spotify → iTunes → Deezer.
fix_finding() was using a potentially stale transfer_folder that was
only refreshed during scheduled job runs, not on manual fix attempts.
Now re-reads the transfer path from config before each fix, matching
the same logic used by _run_next_job().
Also surfaces fix failure reasons to the user — bulk fix now logs each
failure with finding ID and error, and the frontend toast shows the
actual error message instead of just "X failed".
When Spotify falls back to iTunes/Deezer (auth failure, rate limit, API
error), the manual match modals were storing numeric fallback IDs in
spotify_*_id columns, breaking Spotify links and metadata fetching.
Fix detects the actual provider by inspecting result IDs (alphanumeric =
Spotify, numeric = fallback) rather than checking auth status, which can
be misleading during rate limit bans. The frontend now passes the real
provider to the storage endpoint so IDs land in the correct column.
The background enrichment worker now caps itself at 3,000 processed items
per calendar day. Counter resets at midnight automatically. When exhausted,
the worker sleeps and checks every 5 minutes for a new day.
This is scoped entirely to the enrichment worker — user-initiated Spotify
API calls (searches, playlist ops, album lookups, etc.) are completely
unaffected. Budget status is exposed in the worker's get_stats() response
for the dashboard widget.
Added 7 new sections to version modal: Stream Source, YouTube Fix,
Completion Badges, Collab Album Handling, Per-Artist Sync, Stability
fixes. Updated helper What's New with 5 new entries.
Security:
- Toggle in Settings → Advanced: "Require PIN to access SoulSync"
- Full-screen lock overlay on every page load when enabled
- PIN validated server-side against admin profile (bcrypt hash)
- Inline PIN creation if admin has no PIN set, change PIN button if set
- One-time session flag: verify-launch-pin sets it, /profiles/current
consumes it — every page load re-requires PIN
Recovery:
- "Forgot PIN?" on lock screen switches to credential verification
- User pastes any configured API key/token/secret (Spotify, Tidal,
Plex, Jellyfin, Navidrome, ListenBrainz, AcoustID, Last.fm, Genius)
- Server checks against all 9 stored values — any match clears PIN
and disables lock, with toast guiding to Settings to set a new one
Profile switch integration:
- Entering PIN during profile switch also sets launch_pin_verified
flag, preventing double-PIN prompt on the subsequent page reload
Updated version modal and helper What's New with this feature.
Subtle accent border glow breathes every 3s on the ? button until
the user opens the menu for the first time, then stops permanently
via localStorage. Helps new users notice the help system exists.
- Added 6 new sections to /api/version-info: Interactive Help System,
Rich Artist Profiles, Enhanced Library Manager, In Library Badges,
FLAC Bit Depth, Enrichment Worker Improvements
- Consolidated helper WHATS_NEW under v2.1 (no version bump) with
12 entries covering all recent features with Show me navigation
- Removed stale v2.2 key from WHATS_NEW that referenced unbumped version
Helper system phases 2-7:
- Setup Progress: onboarding checklist with progress ring, auto-detection
via /status, /api/settings, /api/library, /api/watchlist, /api/automations
- Quick Actions: accent pill buttons in popovers (service cards get
"Open Settings" and "View Docs" actions)
- Keyboard Shortcuts: full-screen overlay with key cap styling, grouped
by scope (Global, Player, Helper, Forms)
- Search: fuzzy search across 200+ help entries, 11 tours, and shortcuts
with cross-page navigation via _guessPageFromSelector()
- What's New: version-tagged highlights with "Show me" navigation,
red badge on ? button for unseen versions, older version cycling
- Troubleshoot: scans dashboard service cards for disconnected/error
states, shows fix steps with action buttons, "All Clear" when healthy
- Contextual menu: page-aware tour suggestion at top of menu
- Ctrl+K / Cmd+K opens helper search globally
- First-launch welcome tooltip with pulsing ? button
- Redesigned floating button (48px, accent gradient, glass effect)
- Redesigned menu (unified card panel, accent left-stripe on contextual)
Enrichment worker fixes:
- AcoustID: individual recording matches downgraded INFO→DEBUG to reduce
log noise (14 lines for one track → 1 summary line)
- Name normalization: strip " - Suffix" dash format (Spotify) same as
"(Suffix)" parens format across all 8 workers. Fixes false mismatch
on tracks like "Electric Eyes (Studio Brussels Remix)" vs
"Electric Eyes - Studio Brussels Remix" (was 0.54, now matches)
- Rewrote all 6 existing tours to match dashboard quality (was 31 steps total)
- Added 5 new tours: Discover, Stats, Import, Settings, Issues
- Fixed broken selectors in first-download and artists-browse tours
(referenced elements that only exist after user interaction)
- All tours now work on fresh page load — describe post-interaction UI
instead of pointing at empty containers
- Sync tour expanded from 5→11 steps covering all 8 source tabs
- Library tour expanded from 2→7 steps with filters, pagination, detail view
- Automations tour expanded from 3→6 steps with builder detail and signals
New feature: click the floating ? button (bottom-right corner) to
enter help mode. Click any UI element to see a popover explaining
what it is and how to use it. Covers Dashboard + Sidebar + Watchlist.
- Floating button always visible above modals (z-index 999999)
- Click interception via capture phase prevents accidental actions
- Popover with smart positioning (right/left/below fallback)
- Arrow pointing to target element with accent highlight pulse
- "View full documentation" links navigate to the correct docs section
- Escape key dismisses popover or exits help mode
- Works inside modals (watchlist, artist config, global settings)
- 45+ contextual help entries covering sidebar nav, service cards,
stat cards, all 9 tool cards, watchlist modal buttons, artist
config options, content filters, and activity feed
- Separate helper.js file for maintainability
