Add a daily maintenance/validation job that detects videos which can't be played
anywhere and retires them safely. Two phases: re-check already-flagged videos
(recover if available again, else hard-delete once the grace period elapses,
cascading to states/playlist items), and a rolling re-validation of the
least-recently-checked currently-available videos that flags newly-unplayable
ones (hidden from the feed immediately via unavailable_since).
Detection is ~free: a video missing from the videos.list response is
deleted-or-private; an `upcoming` premiere >2 days past its scheduled start that
never went live is abandoned. A still-live broadcast is kept (legit 24/7 stream).
Enrichment now also fetches part=status to populate the status columns. Grace is
7 days for removed videos, none for abandoned. Before deleting, affected users
get one batched notification (never per-video). Interval is admin-tunable via the
Scheduler dashboard; batch size and grace are config. Quota-attributed to the
system and bounded by the same backfill reserve as the other jobs.
enrich_pending only touches enriched_at IS NULL, so a video first seen
while live was stamped live + duration-null and never revisited — staying
'live' with no duration forever after the broadcast ended. Add refresh_live
(run after each enrich pass) that re-fetches anything still live/upcoming,
plus just-ended was_live videos that haven't got their duration yet, until
they settle. Cheap: videos.list is 1 unit per 50 ids.
A channel whose stored uploads already meet or exceed YouTube's advertised
video_count holds its whole history, but backfill_done could stay false forever
when the deep cursor never reached the end (e.g. a small channel that was never
deep-requested, so the demand-driven deep job never ran). Such channels nagged
as 'needs full history' despite having every video. Add reconcile_full_history()
(idempotent, no quota) and run it at the end of each recent/deep backfill cycle
so backfill_done self-heals.
When recent backfill stopped partway through a page (age cutoff or count cap),
it stored the *next* page token as the deep-backfill cursor, so the older items
remaining on that same page were collected by neither pass — a channel could
report backfill_done while silently missing a band of videos right around the
365-day cutoff. Now resume deep from the page we stopped on (re-fetched; inserts
are idempotent). Verified: Pánczél went 200 -> 209 stored (= full uploads
playlist) after re-backfill.
- Shorts: confirm via youtube.com/shorts/<id> probe (SOCS cookie bypasses the
consent redirect) instead of a 60s heuristic; concurrent probing, shorts_probed
flag, scheduled refinement (migration 0005)
- Search: match title + channel name only (descriptions caused noisy results)
- Faceted tag filtering: AND across categories (language AND topic narrows),
OR within a category; any/all toggle applies to topics
- Language detection: majority vote over individual titles (fixes misdetections
like multipoleguy -> English; drops bogus Polish/Romanian)
- Login: drop forced consent so returning sign-in is quick (select_account)
- Feed cards: clickable channel name (opens channel), persistent saved badge,
undo toast on hide, Hidden view to restore; tag chips show counts in tooltip
- Free per-channel RSS reader for quota-less fresh-video detection
- Recent-first backfill (configurable: 100 videos / 1 year) plus resumable deep
backfill from the uploads playlist
- Enrichment via videos.list: duration, view/like counts, category, topics,
language, Shorts heuristic and livestream/premiere classification
- Reusable sync runners + APScheduler jobs (rss / enrich / backfill), all
quota-aware with a reserve so backfill never starves fresh enrichment
- Manual triggers: POST /api/sync/{rss,backfill,enrich}
- Exact insert counting via RETURNING with in-batch de-duplication
