Plezy reported a completed playback twice: the /:/timeline heartbeats let
the server mark the item played on its own, and the in-player auto-scrobble
then sent an explicit /:/scrobble for the same watch. On PMS 1.30 that adds
a second Play History row; on 1.43 the row is suppressed but viewCount still
lands on 2 for one playback.
Measured against PMS 1.43 to find what the server acts on: a watched-threshold
crossing observed inside one session. Consecutive above-threshold reports mark
nothing, a resume point left by an earlier session does not arm a new one, and
a report at position zero is inert while one at a single second is enough. So
the explicit mark now goes out only for sessions that gave the server no
crossing to observe.
That decision cannot be made while the session is live. A session beginning
past the threshold has no crossing yet, but rewinding and playing forward
creates one, and the server records it — marking eagerly and then hitting that
path leaves viewCount at 2 again. The mark is therefore deferred to the
terminal stop, and rides its future so callers that await the stop before
tearing the player down do not drop it. Deferring also covers a crossing
coalesced away during startup and a seek back below the threshold before
stopping.
Crossing state is tracked from reports the backend actually received rather
than from PlaybackReportSession.report()'s bool, which resolves true for a
same-state snapshot dropped during startup.
The same-file sibling hook (#1500) still runs exactly once, on the transition
to a settled mark rather than at the local crossing, so sibling episodes are
never marked watched while the episode actually played is not.
Local watched state and Continue Watching removal still happen on the observed
crossing, so the only behaviour that moves is the redundant server call.

Jellyfin search rows do not expose their owning collection, so hidden libraries cannot be filtered after the response. Scope searches to visible libraries, stamp the returned rows, reuse the latest loaded views, propagate cancellation, and fail closed when views cannot be loaded.
Keep full candidate budgets and split music libraries into parallel album, audio, and artist requests. Album requests disable UserData and use the existing album field set to avoid recursive per-album work from #1552; audio requests retain cheap leaf play state.
close#1770
searchAcrossServers was the only aggregation entry point without a
hiddenLibraryKeys parameter, so libraries hidden from home hubs, Continue
Watching and the library rail still surfaced their contents in the Search
tab. Thread the profile's hidden keys from SearchScreen through to the
aggregation, and drop matching items between the fan-out and the ranking
pass so hidden hits cannot spend the result limit and shrink what is
shown. Items the backend cannot attribute to a library, such as Plex
shared and external media, are kept.
The screen re-runs the visible query when a library is hidden or unhidden
while results are on screen. Its listener is attached only after the
provider has hydrated, so the initial load notification cannot race the
first query into running twice.
Plex search rows now go through the library-aware tagger, so a response
that names its section only via librarySectionKey or
targetLibrarySectionID is still attributable, and therefore filterable.
Jellyfin search results carry no library id at all: the mapper's
ParentLibraryId is not a Jellyfin field, and ParentId resolves to a
season or physical folder rather than a CollectionFolder. Filtering there
needs server-side ParentId scoping and is left for a follow-up.
close#1770
`MediaServerClient.findByExternalIds` returned `MediaItem?`, so the Explore
"In these libraries" chooser could never show more than one copy per server.
A movie held by both a 4K library and an HD library on one Plex server
therefore resolved to whichever copy came back first, with no way to reach
the other.
Return every id-verified match instead. `/library/all` is already
server-wide and each `Metadata` entry carries its own `librarySectionID`,
so both copies come back labelled with no extra request; Plex was simply
taking `Metadata[0]` and the title ladder was returning on its first hit.
An exact-guid hit no longer short-circuits the title search either — a
library still on a legacy agent has a different primary guid and is
invisible to the `guid=` filter.
Copies are deduped by global key and ordered best-first, and each row now
states its resolution, since library names need not mention it.
Resolution passes merge rather than replace: the cross-server fan-out logs
and skips per-server failures, so a later pass can come back short a server
that answered an earlier one, and a failed pass no longer claims the title
left the library. Duplicate keys fold field by field, because Jellyfin's
library stamp is a best-effort ancestors lookup that returns the item bare
when it fails and an unstamped row is indistinguishable from its sibling.
Focus nodes are keyed by copy and reclaimed after a merge re-sorts the
rows, so a dpad user is not thrown to a different copy.
close#1754
The extras loader logged only the chapter count, so a user report of
"auto skip never fires" could not be told apart from "the server has no
intro marker for this item" — the two need opposite fixes. Log the
marker count and types on all three load paths, including the cache-only
one that previously logged nothing at all.
Drop PlexVideoPlaybackData.markers while here: the playback-start parse
filled it on every item and no caller ever read it, because the player
controls fetch their own PlaybackExtras.
Document why getPlaybackExtras may serve the shared metadata cache row
without a freshness check: getPlaybackInitialization refreshes that row
network-first before the controls mount. That ordering is what makes
cache-first correct, and nothing said so.
Two defects sank Explore's Plex integration. Discover started rejecting
X-Plex-Container-Size=500 with a 400, so the watchlist membership
snapshot never loaded: hearts stayed unknown and toggles dead. The
snapshot now pages at 100, and getWatchlist refetches a rejected page in
chunks of the row fetch's field-proven 25, so the next cap drift degrades
gracefully instead of failing and callers' offset math survives either
way.
Worse, every Plex catalog item reached the library matcher carrying only
its Discover rating key: listings were fetched without includeGuids, so
the lookup rested entirely on exact plex:// guid equality between two
metadata universes (Discover duplicate entries break it, notoriously for
anime), and the title fallback can never confirm a candidate without
external ids to intersect - "Not in your library" for owned titles the
MAL provider matched fine. Discover listings now request Guids, the
detail screen re-runs the matcher when enrichment gains id forms
(generation-guarded so the slower bare lookup cannot overwrite the
richer verdict), the matcher keys its memo by id fingerprint so the poor
form's cached negative cannot answer for the rich one, and the Plex
client stops burning title requests that external-id verification is
guaranteed to reject.
Discover requests are now logged like every other API surface; this bug
shipped blind because they were not.
close#1715
The sheet collapsed an item to `Media.first` / `MediaSources.first` and
rendered a fixed set of rows, so split files, extra versions, per-track
properties, HDR classification and Dolby Vision were all invisible.
Model the payload the way both servers shape it — versions own parts,
parts own streams — and project every property either backend populates
onto `MediaStreamDetails`. The field set comes from sweeping both test
servers in full through the clients' own request shapes (Plex 6842
Media / 6842 Part / 39864 Stream entries, Jellyfin 6349 sources / 37763
streams / 61224 attachments), so file presence, Dolby Vision layers,
dynamic range, sample rate, spatial audio, sidecar provenance, embedded
attachments, rotation and the lyric stream type all survive. A coverage
test fails when a server key is neither carried, folded into a sibling,
nor excluded with a reason.
File Info also stopped trusting the shared `/library/metadata/{id}`
cache row: `getPlaybackExtras` writes it without `includeStreams` /
`checkFiles`, so the sheet could render with no stream table at all.
Detect that shape and refetch once under the request context captured
before the cache read, so the outgoing token and the cache namespace
stay on one profile.
Rework the layout to match: a summary chip row, then flat tonal cards
with a two-column field grid that collapses to one column on narrow
viewports, per-stream cards with flag chips, and a copyable monospace
path row. The card fill is a tonal step off the text colour rather than
the `bg` token, which is one shade from the sheet surface on OLED.
MAL/AniList season entries never matched the library show they belong to.
Both backends use the catalog title as a server-side filter before verifying
external ids, and a title like "Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation Season 2"
cannot reach a show stored as "Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation". Measured
against a 267-show Plex library, 3 of 113 mapped sequel entries matched.
The reverse lookup now takes two ordered title candidates instead of one: the
entry's own title and its season-stripped form, with typographic punctuation
normalised because both servers miss on a curly apostrophe. That matches 77 of
113. Widening it further to romaji/native/synonym variants reached only 81, so
the cap stays at two rather than spending up to five more requests per lookup
that finds nothing.
A sequel's year is its own season's, not the parent show's, so the +/-1 year
window is dropped for one - it would exclude the very show being looked for.
That also keeps a miss at the two requests the single-title lookup already
spent. A Plex Discover item additionally skips the title search entirely by
filtering on the plex:// guid its own rating key already is, which costs no
extra request and needs no cloud lookup.
A season 2+ entry only matches when the server really has that season, which
costs one children fetch on a match. Only a season both TVDB and TMDB agree on
is gated: which provider a library numbers its seasons by is a server setting
no dataset supplies and none of it is inferable from the ids an item exposes,
so a disagreeing reference is left ungated rather than gated on a guess.
The match cache is keyed per source and per entry rather than by canonical id,
which every season of a series shares: all five Mushoku Tensei entries collapse
to imdb:tt13293588, so one season-gated result would have poisoned the rest.
Entries whose Fribb row carries no provider id at all remain unmatched. That is
an upstream mapping gap, not something to guess around with extra lookups.
close#1704
Consolidates duplicated logic behind shared implementations — paginated
grid tabs, focus chrome, cached remote stores, sheet selection columns,
the server artifact store and a test fixture layer — and removes code
that had become unreachable. Net reduction of about 5,500 lines with no
behaviour change.
Where a fix had landed separately in code that moved into a shared
helper, the fix was re-applied inside the helper rather than left behind
in the copy that went away.
Focus chrome was implemented twice, once in the focusable wrapper and once
in the focus builders; both now go through FocusChrome. TvColorPicker's
channel row was a copy of TvNumberSpinner and is now that widget in compact
density.
Also trims unused helpers and fields and simplifies the Jellyfin browse
paths.
Introduces shared seams for paginated views, D-pad reorder, media control
routing, async singletons and the device method channel, then points the
open-coded copies at them.
Also removes unused models and duplicated provider/server plumbing, folds
the twice-implemented artifact store in the server, and factors the
repeated Flutter toolchain prologue in CI into a composite action.
Drops dead code across services, models, utils and widgets, including the
connection auth service, which had no implementer, and the Live TV DVR
provisioning models, which had no caller.
Tests that only covered deleted behaviour are removed or trimmed. No
behaviour change.
Report the paused timeline every tick (~10s, matching official clients)
instead of every ~60s, and ping the Plex transcoder keepalive endpoint
alongside it while transcoding — PMS reaps idle transcode sessions that
timeline reports alone historically have not kept alive. Prevents the
transcode-variant of the #1520 stream death; the reporter's direct-play
case is covered by EOF classification and reconnect.
Album/artist downloads expand to tracks with pinned parent metadata,
aggregate progress, container deletes with reference-counted album
covers, and a Music tab on the downloads screen with fully offline
album playback. Home rows include music libraries (fixes plex hub
items being filtered to video types) and audio playlists join
download/sync rules.
Resolve platform, hardware model, and friendly device name once via a
shared DeviceIdentityService and send them to both backends: Plex gets
a real X-Plex-Platform plus X-Plex-Device/X-Plex-Device-Name (shown as
Player in dashboards/Tautulli), Jellyfin gets the device name in the
MediaBrowser auth header. Transcode and live-TV decision requests keep
their pinned platform names, which Plex validates server-side.
close#1270
* fix(plex): show PGS subtitles when transcoding
Bitmap subtitles (PGS/VOBSUB) disappeared from the menu while transcoding on Plex, leaving only "Off". The MKV transcode already supports them, so embed them in the stream like text subs. Now they show up and can be turned on.
* fix(plex): give bitmap subtitle codecs the right sidecar extension
getSubtitleExtension fell back to .srt for vobsub, pgssub and dvb subs. Map them to .sub/.sup so it stays consistent with isImageSubtitleCodec and any sidecar URL or download uses the correct extension.
