Fix: short videos were auto-marked watched almost immediately (negative finish
margin). Cleanups: extract format.formatDate, reuse goPrev/goNext for the in-bar
buttons, memoize the savedPrefs cache read. Verified: tsc, knip, localdev healthy.
BUG (YB1): the auto-watch checkpoint marked a video watched once position
crossed `duration - FINISH_MARGIN` (10s). For clips shorter than ~10s that
threshold is negative, and for ~11-20s clips it's only a few seconds in, so the
5s checkpoint tick marked short videos watched almost immediately (clearing their
resume position). Cap the margin at half the clip: Math.min(FINISH_MARGIN, dur/2).
Cleanups (behavior-neutral):
- Extract format.formatDate(iso, lang) — the day/month/year toLocaleDateString
option object was duplicated verbatim in PlayerModal (fullDate) and VideoCard.
(ChannelPage's "joined" is month/year only, so it's left as-is.)
- The in-bar prev/next buttons now reuse goPrev/goNext instead of re-implementing
the step + bounds inline (they already exist for the side arrows + keyboard).
- Memoize savedPrefs so the ['me'] cache read + spread runs once, not on every
render (it only seeds the initial autoMode/loopMode state).

Cleanup (_remove_item dedup; drop dead Check import + plName shadow) plus
review-found bug fixes: reorder position-collision under concurrent edits,
push/sync/revert YouTube 403s now route to the Connect affordance, and
removeItem rolls back on failure. Verified: ruff, tsc, localdev boots healthy.
BUGS:
- push/sync/revert (PF1/PF2/PF4) swallowed every failure into a generic warning,
so a missing-write-scope 403 gave no hint and no "Connect your YouTube account"
affordance (unlike Channels). Route all three through notifyYouTubeActionError
(no wizard handle on this screen, so message-only for the 403).
- removeItem (PF5) reset the order optimistically then awaited the delete with no
catch: a failed call left the row gone locally (and an unhandled rejection).
Now resync via refreshAll on either path (api.req surfaces the error dialog).
CLEANUP:
- Drop the dead `Check` lucide import (PC6; only AddToPlaylist uses it).
- Use the module plName(detail) helper instead of the inline watch_later-vs-name
ternary that shadowed it in push/revert (PC7).
tsc green, localdev boots healthy.
BUG (PB1): reorder_items only repositioned the items present in the payload,
leaving any omitted item (e.g. one added concurrently in another tab) at its old
position — which then collides with the freshly assigned 0..N-1 range, so
get_playlist's order-by-position returns a nondeterministic/duplicated order.
Now the omitted items get fresh trailing positions (keeping their relative
order), guaranteeing unique contiguous positions.
CLEANUP (PC4): extract _remove_item(db, pl, video_id, mark_dirty=) mirroring the
existing _add_item — remove_watch_later and remove_item duplicated the same
find-by-(playlist,video)/delete/commit block.
Behavior-neutral for the normal full-payload reorder. ruff clean, localdev boots.
BUG (FB3): the channel page's Subscribe mutation had no onError, so a read-only
user (no YouTube write scope) clicking Subscribe got a silent 403 — nothing
happened, no toast. Wire notifyYouTubeActionError (no wizard handle here, so the
message without the Connect button). Block is a local-only action and can't 403
for scope, so it's left as-is.
BUG (FB4): subscribe.onSuccess invalidated channel/feed/channels but omitted
my-status and discovered-channels (which ChannelDiscovery invalidates for the
same action), so after subscribing from a channel page the Discovery list and
the manager stats stayed stale. Added both.
tsc green, localdev boots healthy.
- Extract notifyYouTubeActionError (new lib/youtubeErrors.ts): the "403 → Connect
your YouTube account, else fallback toast" logic was duplicated in Channels.tsx
and ChannelDiscovery.tsx. (Separate file, not lib/notifications, to avoid the
api ↔ notifications import cycle.)
- Extract format.formatCountOrDash(): the `n != null ? formatViews(n) : "—"` count
cell was repeated across the subs/videos columns in Channels + ChannelDiscovery.
- Register channelsTable / channelDiscoveryTable in storage.ts LS instead of bare
"siftlode.*" string literals.
- Delete 7 dead channels.json keys (filterPlaceholder, tags.newTag/createTag,
row.stored/subs/getFullHistory/getFullHistoryHint) from en/hu/de — verified 0
refs (createTag matches were the unrelated api.createTag method, not the key).
Behavior-neutral. tsc green, knip no new unused, localdev boots.
- Extract _is_blocked(db, user, channel_id): the BlockedChannel EXISTS query was
copy-pasted in channel_detail, explore_channel, and block_channel.
- Extract _channel_summary(ch): the shared id/title/handle/thumbnail/subscriber/
video_count projection was hand-rolled in list_channels and discover_channels
(the detail dict interleaves these with extras, so it's left as-is).
Behavior-neutral. ruff clean, localdev boots healthy.
BUG-1 (search.py, high): the scrape search source logged one VIDEOS_SEARCH
quota event PER continuation page inside the paging loop, but actions_today
counts events — so a single user search that pages N times consumed N against
search_daily_limit_per_user (its docstring even warns it only works for
once-per-action logging). Log exactly once per request after the loop instead;
the API source already logs once via record_usage (it never auto-pages).
BUG-2 (Feed.tsx, medium): the optimistic-override reset effect keyed on
query.dataUpdatedAt also fired on fetchNextPage (infinite scroll bumps
dataUpdatedAt while page 1 is unchanged), so a just-hidden card flashed back
mid-scroll. Guard with a page-count ref: only reset on a real refetch, not an
append. The two override-reset effects legitimately differ now (resolves the
would-be C-F1 "identical effects" cleanup).
tsc green, ruff clean, localdev boots healthy.
- Hoist withOverrides(loaded) into `merged` (was mapped twice per render for
items and playerQueue).
- Remove the needless always-true {(<>…</>)} expression wrapper around the
Source selector.
- Extract dropFeedCaches() — the feed/feed-count/facets removeQueries trio was
duplicated across the back and clear-now handlers.
Behavior-neutral. tsc green.
- feed.py _filtered_query: drop the dead 2nd return element (status_expr was
used only internally for WHERE filters; all 3 callers discarded it as _status).
Now returns (query, rank_expr); fixed the stale docstring.
- youtube/client.py: extract _iter_playlist_items() — iter_my_playlist_video_ids
and iter_playlist_items_with_ids were near-identical playlistItems paging loops
(jscpd [173-187]≈[267-281]); both now map over the shared generator.
- sync/videos.py: extract _apply_video_batch() with an on_missing callback —
enrich_pending and refresh_live shared the fetch-map-apply skeleton, differing
only in the query and how they retire rows YouTube omits.
- models.py: add LIVE_OR_UPCOMING = ("live","upcoming"); replace the 4 duplicated
copies (feed.HIDDEN_LIVE, search._LIVE_HIDDEN, videos.py + channels.py inline).
Behavior-neutral. ruff clean on touched files, localdev boots, feed/worker healthy.
- Delete dead top-level downloads.rename.* i18n block (en/hu/de); the
metadata modal moved to downloads.edit.*. Keep downloads.actions.rename
(still used by ProfileEditor).
- Rename misnamed state renameJob/setRenameJob -> metaJob/setMetaJob in
DownloadCenter (it opens MetaEditModal, not a rename dialog).
- Extract the duplicated [downloads]/[download-index]/[download-usage]
invalidation trio into lib/downloads.ts invalidateDownloads(qc);
used by DownloadCenter and DownloadDialog.
Behavior-neutral. tsc green, knip shows no new unused export, JSON valid.
Found during the Phase-2 Downloads-frontend review:
- VideoEditor: onLoaded now reconciles the still-pristine full-length segment to the
REAL decoded duration (its guard `end<=0` was dead since the metadata srcDur is
always >0). Without this the untouched last segment kept the rounded metadata
length, so isFullSingle read false and "Create" was enabled on an unmodified
video — producing a bogus edit that dropped the tail.
- DownloadCenter: fall back to the "queue" tab when a persisted tab (e.g. admin-only
"system") isn't in the current set, instead of rendering a blank page.
- VideoEditor: reencode = cropOn || accurate (was a no-op `willJoin ? accurate : accurate`).
tsc clean. GUI-affecting → pending an E2E visual test (needs an authed localdev
session) before user UAT. Cross-cutting UI-consistency cleanup deferred to Phase 3.
Sticky errored asset re-download, ref_count leak on errored-job delete, admin
storage cap reads the DB value, and 400-not-500 on malformed edit/format specs.
Reviewed clean (a B2 concurrency race was caught + fixed). Local dev only — prod
publish waits for the end of the whole code-hygiene review.
- B1 (sticky errored asset): get_or_create_asset now resets a reused status=='error'
asset back to 'pending' (+clears the error), so a fresh enqueue/edit of a once-failed
(source,format) pair actually re-downloads instead of the worker short-circuiting the
new job with the stale error. Errored assets carry no expires_at, so without this the
pair was permanently poisoned for all users until someone hit resume.
- B2 (ref_count leak): _release_asset counts 'error' as a holding state, so deleting an
errored job decrements the ref_count that enqueue always incremented (the worker never
decrements on failure). Errored rows are deliberately NOT deleted here — a concurrent
B1 reuse could otherwise be lost-updated + FK-nulled; the row is fileless and harmless.
- B3: admin storage dashboard reads sysconfig.get_int(db,'download_total_max_bytes')
(the admin-editable DB value GC enforces) instead of the raw env default.
- B4: the single-trim branch of normalize_edit_spec guards its float() coercion like the
crop/segments branches — a malformed trim now yields a 400, not an unhandled 500.
- B5: formats.normalize guards int(max_height) → falls back to "best" instead of 500.
Reviewed (race in an earlier B2 draft caught + fixed); localdev boots, B4/B5 unit-verified.
- C3: `_reference_url` (downloads.py) and public.py's inline source-URL block were
the same rule → extract `service.reference_url(job, asset)`; both surfaces now
share it so the "downloaded from" link can't drift between them.
- C4: Content-Disposition filename derivation (ext pick + doubled-ext strip + join)
was duplicated in download_file and watch_file → extract
`storage.download_filename(display_name, container, path)`.
- C5: inline the one-line `_clean_basename` passthrough (folded into C4).
- C6: the `db.get(MediaAsset, job.asset_id) if job.asset_id else None; _serialize(...)`
resolve-then-serialize dance was repeated across 6 single-job handlers → fold into
`_serialize_job(db, job)`. (File-serving handlers that use the asset for their own
checks keep their explicit resolve.)
Behavior-neutral; ruff/parse clean, localdev boots, downloads routes load.
- C1: remove downloads/formats.py target_ext() — defined but never called (the
worker derives the real extension from the produced file's suffix).
- C2: the download-root containment+existence guard was copy-pasted 6× across the
file-serving endpoints (routes/downloads.py ×3, routes/public.py ×3). Extract
storage.safe_abs_path(root, rel) -> Path|None so this security-sensitive check
lives in one place; behavior identical (same containment test + messages). The
extraction also made `pathlib.Path` unused in both route modules (removed).
Machine-baseline harvest (ruff + knip), all tsc/parse-green, no runtime change:
- backend: remove 3 unused imports (channels/playlists/youtube) via ruff; drop the
unused `job` binding in unshare_download (keep the _own_job ownership guard call).
- frontend: remove `export` from 23 internally-used-only symbols (knip "unused
exports") to shrink the public surface; delete 2 genuinely-dead declarations
(PlexBrowseResult — leftover from the removed /browse route; WIDGET_TITLES —
hardcoded English titles superseded by i18n).
Held back for a decision (unused here = possibly-unwired, NOT dead — flagged, not
removed): e2ee.lock()/clearDevice() (security primitives never wired to logout / a
"forget device" feature) and loadDefaultViewFilters (App reimplements it inline — a
DRY issue). See siftlode-ops/CODE-HYGIENE.md.
The adaptive genre facet always self-excluded the genre filter ({**p,"genres":
None}). That's right for "any"/OR mode — each offered genre widens the result —
but wrong for "all"/AND mode, where adding a genre narrows: it kept showing
genres that don't co-occur with the current selection, so clicking them ANDed the
result to zero (dead-end chips). Now self-exclude only in "any" mode; in "all"
mode keep the filter applied so the facet returns only genres present on the
current result set.
Guard the empty-AND case: a zero-match combination would return facets.genres=[],
and the sidebar hides the whole genre section (chips + Any/All toggle) when it's
empty — trapping the user with no per-chip way to undo the selection. Always emit
the actively-selected genres (count 0 when dropped) so they stay visible and
removable.
The searchable Collections picker was dropped from the sidebar when browsing
went unified (movies+shows across libraries) because collections are per-library
and there's no single selected library. Bring it back library-agnostic: GET
/api/plex/collections `library` is now optional — without it the endpoint unions
collections across all enabled libraries (with it, the old single-library path the
collection editor uses). The sidebar re-adds the searchable list (chip when one is
active). Its query key is ["plex-collections","union",<search>] so a search term
equal to a library plex_key can't collide with the editor's ["plex-collections",<key>],
while the shared prefix keeps editor invalidation refreshing the picker.
F6: coalesce whole-show/season Plex watch-pushes into ONE background task
(push_bulk_state_to_plex) that reuses a single DB session + keep-alive Plex
client, instead of scheduling one task (own session + HTTP client) per episode.
F8: cache a show's live Plex enrichment (metadata + related) per rating_key for
a short TTL and fetch the two calls in parallel; repeat opens skip the network.
Raw payloads are cached; per-user shaping stays out. An empty related list is not
cached (plex.related swallows a transient failure as [] — don't pin it for the TTL).
F10: remove dead code — the pre-unified /browse route + browse(), the /people
route + people() + _person_photo(), api.plexPeople, interface PlexPerson, and the
orphaned plex.people i18n block. DRY: appendPlexFilters() shared by plexLibrary +
plexFacets; one exported plexDetailUi.Filterable (was Fil + Filterable); PlexInfo
migrated onto the shared plexDetailUi hooks/menu (DetailCustomizeMenu gained
overlay + extra props; useDetailPrefs exposes savePref; PrefToggle exported).
Reviewed (high) → clean. F7 (facet aggregate collapse) deferred: self-exclusion
gives each sub-aggregate a distinct WHERE, and no measurement shows /facets slow.
- F1: refresh grid after playback/collection-edit — invalidate the renamed
["plex-library"] query key in PlexPlayer + PlexCollectionEditor (was stale
["plex-browse"], a dead no-op)
- F2: exclude hidden movies from facet counts/bounds — the movie facet base now
always joins watch-state and mirrors unified_library's status branches, so
facets match the visible grid exactly
- F3: show_detail/item_detail live-Plex enrichment degrades instead of 500ing —
broaden the best-effort block to except Exception
- F5: don't re-run the heavy facet computation on sort-direction toggles — key
the facets query only on fields plexFacets actually sends
- F9: optimistic watched-toggle also updates the search Episodes section and
gives toggleEpisodeWatched an optimistic path (shared optimisticStatus helper)
1. Series detail pages now match the movie info page: the customize menu lives in the
hero panel (top-right), the Cast/Seasons/Related strips sit in glassy panels, and the
menu is dynamic — Related shows can be toggled (new plexInfoRelated pref).
2. The Plex search box now survives F5 (persisted per-account like the filters).
3. Show + season hero posters get a hover Play/Resume overlay.
4. Card top-right watched toggle can now UN-watch: the watched/in-progress badges were
intercepting the click (no pointer-events-none), so the toggle underneath never fired.
5. Episode card: the watched check no longer jumps on hover (badge now shares the
toggle's box); every card's title/meta gets its own glassy translucent background and
the Add-to-playlist button is always visible (not hover-only).
6. Season-card 'In progress' label is readable again (solid dark badge over the poster).
7. On a season page the show title is clickable → back to the show (history-correct).
- Season cards (show page) gain a hover Play overlay, a clickable title, a quick
watched/unwatched toggle (whole season) and an add-whole-season-to-playlist button.
- Episode cards gain a hover watched/unwatched quick toggle (single episode) — in the
season page and the search Episodes section.
- Series show + season pages now use the same glassy HTPC look as the movie info page:
a faint fixed art backdrop + a customize menu (toggle the backdrop / hide the cast
row), factored into a shared lib/plexDetailUi (useDetailPrefs / useArtBackdrop /
DetailCustomizeMenu), reusing the movie info prefs (plexInfoArtBg/plexInfoCast) so the
toggle state is consistent across movies and series.
- Facets now respect the watch-state filter too (In progress / Watched / Unwatched),
so e.g. the Year bounds match the visible set (was showing the library min, not the
filtered min).
- Genre chips sorted alphabetically (was by count).
- Sort chips ordered alphabetically by their localized label.
- Ascending/Descending chips swapped (Ascending first) and the default sort direction
is now Ascending.
- Default sort is now Title (ascending) instead of Recently added / Descending.
The sidebar's filter chips/bounds now ADAPT to the active filters: /facets takes the
current filters and computes each group's available values with all the OTHER active
filters applied but not its own (standard faceted search). So picking e.g. IMDb rating
>=8 trims the genre/content-rating chips + year bounds to what's still reachable, and
picking a genre narrows them further — while a multi-select group (genres) still shows
options to add. Extracted _meta_filter_conds (shared by browse/unified/facets), and the
frontend passes the live filters to plexFacets (query keyed on them, previous chips kept
during refetch). Search text is intentionally not factored into facets.
Collapse the separate Movie/Show library sections into ONE unified library with a
shared search + shared filter sidebar and a Movies/Shows/Both scope selector.
Backend: new GET /api/plex/library — a cross-library UNION of movies (plex_items) and
shows (plex_shows) as one mixed, paginated, sorted feed, scoped movie|show|both, with
the shared filters (extracted into _apply_meta_filters, DRY), FTS search, and per-user
watch-state (a show's state = the aggregate of its episodes). On a search that also
matches episodes, matching episodes come back in a separate 'episodes' list (the grouped
'Episodes' section — Proposal 3). /facets is now scope-aware (merged across the scope's
libraries). /item and /show now return their library section key (for the admin
collection editor, since there's no single library prop in the unified view).
Frontend: PlexSidebar's library picker -> a scope selector (Both/Movies/Shows); facets +
browse follow the scope (App's plexLib repurposed to a validated scope, default both).
PlexBrowse uses the unified endpoint, renders a mixed Titles grid + an Episodes section
on search. Poster cards are generalized: a hover Play/Resume overlay on every card, a
clickable title (not just the poster), and a movie/show type tag. The quick watched
toggle is now optimistic so it reliably flips BOTH ways (fixes the movie card that could
mark but not un-mark). Cast/crew members and the show hero's meta (year/rating/genre/
content-rating) are clickable filters; clicking a person widens the scope to Both so the
result is a mixed movie+show feed. i18n plex.filter.scope*/plex.unified.* (en/hu/de).
Still pending from the polish list (next pass): season-card quick toggles (watched +
add-to-playlist), per-episode watched toggle, and the full glassy art-bg + hide-cast
customize menu on the series pages.
Restructure TV browsing into show detail → seasons → season episodes → player, like
the Plex web app.
Backend: /show/{rk} now returns a rich show page — hero meta (rating/content_rating/
genres/studio + live IMDb), live Cast & Crew, Related shows (Plex 'related', mapped to
our mirrored shows so they're openable), and per-season cards with an aggregate
watch-state + on-deck episode, plus show-level resume (on-deck)/first(play-from-start)/
status rollup. New PlexClient.related(). New bulk-state endpoints POST /show/{rk}/state
and /season/{rk}/state mark every episode watched/unwatched for the user and mirror
each change to a linked Plex account in the background (best-effort, checked once).
Frontend: PlexShowView reworked into the show detail page (hero + Resume/Play-from-start/
Mark-show-watched/Add-to-playlist/[admin]Add-to-collection + season card grid + cast +
related strips); new PlexSeasonView season subpage (hero + Resume/Play/Mark-season/
Add-season-to-playlist + landscape episode grid). Both read the one cached ['plex-show']
payload (season page picks its season out of it — instant, no extra fetch). Player queue =
the whole show (from the show page) or the season (from the season page) so prev/next +
auto-advance follow order. New 'season' history subview; Backspace steps back one drill
level (grid←show←season, out of info/playlist) alongside browser/mouse Back. Season-level
'Add to collection' intentionally omitted (Plex collections hold whole shows, not seasons).
i18n plex.series.* (en/hu/de).
Give TV shows the same filterable metadata as movies so the TV grid can be
filtered/sorted, not just library+sort. Backend: migration 0052 adds
rating/content_rating/studio/originally_available_at/genres/directors/cast_names/
people_text to plex_shows (+ GIN/indexes, people_text folded into search_vector);
_sync_shows populates them cheaply from the show section listing (no per-item
calls). /browse show-branch gains the movie filter set (minus duration) plus an
aggregate per-user watch-state (a show rolls up its episodes: all watched=watched,
any progress=in_progress, none=new) with year/rating/release sorts; /facets returns
show facets. Frontend: PlexSidebar renders the metadata filters + watch-state for TV
libraries (duration stays movie-only); show cards show a watched/in-progress badge.
i18n plex.inProgress (en/hu/de). Needs a Plex re-sync to populate the new columns.
User-tested on prod: the flash fires (fullscreen → back to small) but the source
stays 360p — YouTube doesn't switch quality within the flash window and we can't set
it via the (dead) API, so the unlock has no effect. Give up on forcing windowed HD.
Restore PlayerModal to its 0.36.2 state (native-menu-yield + scroll-anywhere volume
kept). Also prune the failed HD-quality attempts from the release notes (the flash
and the transform-revert notes, plus the hollow 'higher quality' claim in 0.36.0) so
there's no user-facing trace of an effort that yielded nothing.
YouTube hard-caps a windowed embed to ~360p and only a real fullscreen lifts the
cap — after which the higher quality persists for the session. Since we can't set
quality via the (dead) API, coax it: on the first video opened per page session,
briefly enter fullscreen using the modal-open click's live user activation, then
exit back to the small player. Exits early once onPlaybackQualityChange reports the
quality actually rose (else after a ms cap). Module-scoped
hdUnlockDone flag makes it fire once per session (the unlock persists), with a
retry on the first overlay click if the open-click activation had expired. Cleaned
up on teardown so a mid-flash close can't leave the player stuck in fullscreen.
Best-effort — bandwidth still gates the actual bitrate.
Confirmed on prod: rendering the iframe at 1920x1080 logical and CSS transform:
scale()-ing it down does NOT lift YouTube's quality cap — the embed stays ~360p in
the windowed player and manual HD still snaps back; only true fullscreen unlocks
1080p (which then persists for the session). YouTube caps by the on-screen size, not
the iframe's window.innerWidth, so the transform only shrank YouTube's native
controls for no benefit. Restore the plain 100%/100% mount.
Kept: scroll-anywhere volume (works), the native-menu-yield fix, max-w-6xl, and the
harmless vq=hd1080 hint.
YouTube caps an embedded player's max quality to the iframe's OWN inner viewport
size, so the small windowed player was stuck at ~360p (manual HD selection snapped
back); only fullscreen unlocked 1080p. Render the player at a fixed 1920x1080
logical size and CSS transform: scale() it down to fit the stage — the transform
doesn't change the iframe's window.innerWidth, so YouTube keeps seeing a 1080p
viewport and lets you pick 1080p while we display it small. A ResizeObserver keeps
the scale fitting the stage in both windowed and fullscreen.
Also move wheel-to-volume from the small centre overlay to the whole modal, so
scrolling anywhere over the player window adjusts volume.
The transparent interaction overlay (click=play/pause, wheel=volume, keeps
keyboard focus off the cross-origin iframe) also blocked YouTube's own settings
menu, which expands down over the video past the overlay: items below the first
few were unclickable, and 'More options' made it worse.
Now the overlay yields to native controls. Clicking a native control (gear/seek/
CC) moves focus into the player iframe — the only cross-origin signal available —
which we detect (window blur + getIframe() focus check) to drop the overlay's
pointer-events, so the whole menu is navigable at any height. A discreet badge
signals native mode; moving the pointer off the video (or the window regaining
focus) re-arms the click/scroll/keyboard shortcuts.
Quality: the IFrame API's setPlaybackQuality/suggestedQuality are hard no-ops now,
so the real lever is the rendered player size — bump the modal max-w-4xl -> 6xl so
YouTube's ABR targets a higher resolution — plus a best-effort 'vq=hd1080' URL hint.
i18n (en/hu/de) for the native-mode badge.
Completes the two-way Plex ↔ Siftlode watch-state sync: Phase B (Siftlode→Plex push, immediate)
and Phase C (incremental history/on-deck pull + daily full reconcile incl. un-watch). Also the
auto-advance watched-mark id-race fix.
