Since a1b6a8971 only the selected sidecar attached at open, so mpv's
track-list carried one external subtitle and the track sheet could only
offer the rest as primary source switches - tap-and-hold on a
non-selected external track selected it as primary instead of secondary.
Real external files are cheap static fetches, so Jellyfin, Plex direct
play, and offline discovery now mark them preload and they ride along in
sub-files at open, keeping every external track selectable as a
secondary subtitle without a reopen. Embedded rows extracted on a
transcode stay lazy: extraction can stall behind the transcoder, which
is exactly what used to trip the sidecar open guard.

Non-Original presets advertised hevc inside the mpegts HLS target; a Plex
Pass server with HEVC encoding enabled obliges, and its HEVC encode -> TS
segmenter path emits parameter sets mpv rejects ("PPS changed between
slices"). The VOD target now requests fragmented MP4 (verified against
PMS 1.22-1.43), retrying once with an H.264-only TS profile when a
server's decision does not echo the mp4 container back, and falling back
to direct play when neither is honoured. Live TV keeps its own TS target:
live sessions copy broadcast hevc/mpeg2video streams, a path the encoder
bug does not touch.
Presets also now send the videoResolution/videoQuality caps their labels
promise; previously only the bitrate limitation went out, so a "1080p
8 Mbps" preset delivered 2160p at a starved 8 Mbps.

A Portuguese user reported "Skip Intro" rendering in English on Android TV.
The locale files were not the problem - all 22 were structurally complete.
skip_marker_button.dart simply never imported strings.g.dart and assigned
'Skip Intro' / 'Skip Credits' / 'Next Episode' as plain literals. An audit of
lib/ found ~120 more sites in the same state, in four shapes that need
different fixes:
A literal in a file that never imported the i18n layer is the easy one -
skip_marker_button, performance_stats, track_label_builder and codec_utils all
render text with no `t` in the file at all. TrackLabelBuilder._compose now takes
a fallbackLabel builder instead of an English fallbackPrefix, so the caller
supplies t.audioTracks.track / t.videoControls.subtitleTrack and every unnamed
audio and subtitle row in the track menus is localized.
English reaching the user through an exception message is the widest one, and
it needs care: MediaServerException.message feeds both toString() - logs and
Sentry grouping - and verbatim UI display. Localizing it in place would make
bug-report logs follow the user's locale and split one Sentry issue into 22.
The MediaServer and Seerr families instead gain a nullable `display` alongside
the English `message`, and the six screens that print these errors read
`display ?? message`. PlaybackException keeps the opposite rule, because it
already carries a PlaybackFailureReason for logic and classifyPlaybackFailure
already builds it from t.messages: its stragglers are localized at the throw
site. That also removes the literal "Exception: " prefix Live TV users saw on
a tune failure, since PlaybackException.toString() returns the bare message.
Localized parts hand-concatenated with bare English are the shape no search for
Text('...') can find: '${t.common.pause} auto-scroll' on the home carousel,
'${day} at ${time}' on the Live TV schedule row, and an actor-screen count that
hand-rolled its plural as `n == 1 ? 'title' : 'titles'` - wrong for ru and pl
regardless of translation, now a real Slang plural.
Finally a literal assigned to provider state that a widget renders later:
DownloadProgress.errorMessage, and the four background_downloader notification
bodies, which sit inside a plugin config call where no widget-shaped search
reaches them.
Two things surfaced while converting. track_chapter_controls compared a track
label against 'Audio Track N' to swap in a localized version; once the builder
localized its own fallback that branch became unreachable, so it and the
orphaned _joinTrackLabel are gone. And discovery_view's PeerError fallback arm
looks like a leak but is not - its producers already localize, and a test says
so - so it stays as it is.
All 21 non-base locales are translated, including the 21 keys left empty by
earlier commits that were falling back to English. No locale has an empty value.
scripts/check_hardcoded_strings.py guards the three shapes a structural check
can see, and runs in ci_checks.sh after translation hygiene. Its first draft
passed its own tests while missing this very bug, because 'Skip Intro' is bound
to a local rather than handed to Text(); the name-bound rule that closes that
gap is restricted to phrase-shaped literals, or it cannot tell copy from the
identifiers this codebase binds constantly ('cast_row', 'auto', 'liveTv'). It
cannot see English inside a throw or assigned to a provider field - neither is
distinguishable from a log message without dataflow analysis - and the docstring
says so. label: and actionLabel: are deliberately unscanned: here they name a
diagnostic operation, and a check that is chronically red is a check that gets
switched off.
One commit rather than one per area: the keys, the 22 locale files and the
generated output are a single unit, and any partial split fails the repo's own
unused-key scan on the way through.

`maxVideoBitrate` budgets the whole stream, so a capped transcode forced
even profile-compatible audio down to low-rate AAC (measured on Plex
1.43: EAC3 5.1 640k became 360k AAC). The client profile already carries
the video cap through `add-limitation(video.bitrate)`, so drop the
redundant `maxVideoBitrate` param and send `directStreamAudio=1`: the
video stays capped per preset while audio in the codecs the profile
declares (aac/ac3/eac3/mp3) is copied through untouched. Audio the HLS
target cannot carry still transcodes as before.
Two regressions since 2.9.1 broke subtitles on transcoded playback. Since
a1b6a8971 sidecars load with the media behind a 10s open guard, so a
subtitle URL the server is slow to serve — Jellyfin extracting an
embedded stream while its transcoder spins up — tripped the guard: stop,
reopen without subtitles, "Selected subtitles could not be loaded"
snackbar, and an emptied subtitle menu. Since 2b3853a88 every embedded
Plex subtitle was handed to the player as a sidecar whose URL is the
original container, so a transcode also range-read and demuxed the
source over HTTP — for a 40 GB remux, purely to find a subtitle track —
which is also why PGS never appeared: the client was handed a container
to demux rather than a rendition to play.
Delivery is the server's job again, backported from the AVPlayer branch
(42ba01440, the subtitle subset of 6852ac274, and a3da81e83) and adapted
to main's mpv backend:
Plex burns every embedded track (subtitles=burn); only a real external
file with a /library/streams key stays a client-fetched sidecar. A burn
is a re-encode, so directPlay is withdrawn — a real PMS answers HTTP 400
to directPlay=1 with burn — and the burn is aimed by selecting the
stream on the part first via the selectStreams PUT, because the decision
endpoint ignores subtitleStreamID alongside subtitles=burn. An
unaimable or undeliverable burn (dvb_teletext) refuses the transcode and
falls back to warned direct play rather than welding the wrong language
in or silently dropping the caption. Main's per-preset
directPlay/directStream pinning is kept; verified against a live PMS
that burn works under directStream=0.
Jellyfin never offers image formats as External, so bitmaps fall through
to Encode and are burned; text External is withheld per request when the
effective selection — including the server's DefaultSubtitleStreamIndex —
is embedded, and offered when it is a real file, so a file is delivered
as a file and never fetched twice. The burned row is excluded from the
sidecars; remaining text rows stay extractable, which is how a secondary
track still renders over a transcode. Sidecar URLs now use the format
extension the endpoint expects instead of the reported codec name.
The controls and selection layers learn what burning means: burn
eligibility is the codec's property, so burned rows stay selectable in
the menu; any change away from a burned selection renegotiates with the
server instead of pretending a local switch worked; the visibility
shortcut explains itself instead of doing nothing; and the track manager
is told when the primary is server-rendered so it stops waiting out a
thirty-second deadline for a native track that is already pixels.
Verified: analyzer parity, clean_translations --check --strict, full
flutter test (5749), and decision-level runs against live Plex and
Jellyfin servers — text and PGS burn decisions, the directPlay=1+burn
400, External file delivery, an unchanged no-burn baseline, and a real
burn session serving its playlist. The pre-commit aggregate was bypassed
for pre-existing main-state findings outside this diff: 21 format-drifted
files and three unused test seams in lib/main.dart.

Refs #1815, #1622.
A Plex transcode session always starts producing at zero: the decision
request never sent offset=, so any non-zero open - resuming a
transcoded title, or switching from Direct Play to a transcoded
quality mid-playback - opened a session whose produced window begins
at the start of the file and seeked it. mpv immediately requests a
segment the transcoder has not produced, PMS answers 404 for it and
every subsequent segment, and playback buffers forever.
Send offset=<seconds> (6dp) with the decision and start request - the
view offset on initial open, the resolved resume position on every
in-place reload - so the session begins producing at the position the
player consumes first. The playlist timeline is unchanged: an offset
session's media playlist still covers the full title from segment
zero, so the player keeps opening with start: at the resume position
and in-stream seeks work as before.
Before a native player opens an offset playlist, waitForTranscodeReady
walks the master playlist, the media playlist, and the segment
containing the offset, because PMS can publish a manifest before that
segment is fetchable and mpv treats the 404 as an HLS error. The probe
is best-effort: it never fails an open, hands off immediately on HTTP
500 (on the response and exception paths alike) so the server-limit
dialog stays prompt, stops on cancellation, skips itself when the
playlist durations never reach the offset, and stays out of the
endpoint-failover cascade. In-place reloads resolve the replacement
source only after the old stop report has gone out, so Plex cannot use
that stop to terminate the replacement transcode.
close#1840
A transient GET failure on a healthy endpoint could park the client on an
unreachable fallback (e.g. the server host's Docker bridge gateway, which
plex.tv advertises as a local connection) for a full connect timeout, failing
every request in flight during that window (log bbr90).
The cascade now probes each candidate with an unauthenticated /identity
request under the discovery-race budget and only switches when it answers as
the expected server, mirroring the Jellyfin trust gate. Unreachable-looking
private IPv4 candidates stay in the list — a client on the server host can
legitimately reach them, so reachability is probed, not inferred.
Pausing an episode on one device, finishing it on another and pressing
Refresh left the first device showing the old "minutes left". Restarting the
app showed the right value. Two independent defects produce that, and either
alone reproduces the report.
The first is the watch-state overlay. Every local watch event lands in
WatchStateStore as a patch, and WatchStateSnapshot.apply overwrites
viewOffsetMs unconditionally; isNewerThan only ever orders one patch against
another, never against the server row underneath. Nothing expires a patch and
nothing clears the map except a profile switch, so the Mac's own paused
position kept winning over every subsequent fetch until the process died.
A patch exists to bridge the gap between a local action and the next server
read of that item, so it should stop applying once that read happens. The
store now records the watermark at which a successful authoritative response
returned each key, and suppresses an acknowledged session patch at or below
it. Only a watermark is stored, never the observed state: WatchStateSnapshot
cannot hold a container's leaf counts, and keeping max() per key makes the
order two concurrent responses complete irrelevant. Suppression is a
read-time predicate, so nothing mutates during build.
The barrier covers the parentChain too. patchForItem picks the newest of the
item's own entry and its ancestors', so retiring only the item's entry would
let an older season mark win and render watched/0 -- worse than either the
stale value or the fresh one. An authoritative read of a child already
reflects any container mark that preceded it, so the child's observation
judges its ancestors as well; a newer container action still wins.
Provenance decides what may be suppressed at all. WatchStateEvent now carries
serverAcknowledged, defaulting to false so an unclassified emit site degrades
to today's behaviour rather than silently becoming retireable. An offline
write is owed to the server and a read must never retire it, so it stays
until a WatchPatchPromotionNotifier promotion says the queue replayed it. That
channel is deliberately not a WatchStateEvent: OfflineWatchSyncService reacts
to watched/unwatched by purging queued progress, so replaying one there would
delete a newer rewatch. Promotion matches an exact WatchPatchId -- session
minted for live crossings, derived from the persisted (profile, row, revision)
for queued ones so it still joins after a restart.
Report acceptance is not delivery: PlaybackReportSession resolves true for a
same-state startup heartbeat it drops, so acknowledgement now keys on
onDelivered. A MediaBrowser Started saves play count and last-played date but
not the position, so it cannot acknowledge an offset. No report-derived
watched crossing is acknowledged on any backend -- Jellyfin hard-codes its
threshold and Plex never loads the server pref that would tell it the real
one -- so only an awaited explicit markWatched settles one.
The second defect is that a failed Refresh reported success. Plex _fetchHubs
and the Jellyfin hub legs both degrade a failure to an empty list, and the
library prefetch discarded its failures, so a server whose every hub request
failed was recorded as succeeded; DiscoverProvider then kept the previous rows,
set loaded and surfaced nothing. Worse, the background Continue Watching
refresh wiped the row outright on zero success.
Hub legs now report what they degraded through a HubFetchDiagnostics sink,
which keeps partial rows alongside the failure and leaves every existing
caller untouched. Failures ride through the aggregation results, a leg that
could not run because discovery failed contributes that failure rather than a
successful no-op, and loaded-server ids became succeeded - failed - cancelled
so one bad leg no longer caches a server as covered and blocks its retry. The
toolbar awaits a DiscoverRefreshOutcome and shows the existing unableToLoad
snackbar on failure while the retained rows stay on screen. Rollback after a
mid-pass exception is version-guarded, refilters against the current hidden
libraries and no longer publishes a system shelf the pass never committed.
Observations are staged with the pass and flushed only once the same disposal,
generation and exception checks that authorise committing those rows have
passed, so a discarded or rolled-back response can never suppress a patch.
Also fixes a live data-loss race the promotion work would have built on:
upsertProgressAction stamped a millisecond timestamp and updated the row in
place, so a rewatch queued during an in-flight replay was deleted by id.
Revisions are now strictly monotonic per row, replay deletes and retry updates
compare against them, and the upsert resets the retry fields because a new
revision is a new logical action.
close#1829
Plex only builds the `Guid` array for the Plex Movie / Plex TV Series
agents. A library still on a legacy agent answers with the scalar `guid`
alone, so `fetchExternalIds` returned nothing for it and every consumer
went quiet: trackers logged "no external IDs" and skipped the write,
manual ratings showed "Not available", the detail screen dropped its
watchlist button, and Continue Watching stopped collapsing duplicate
copies. The reverse lookup already read that scalar; only the forward
path ignored it.
Read both shapes from the one request the method already makes, with the
array winning per field and the scalar filling the rest.
HAMA identifies anime by AniDB id and nothing else, which no id set could
carry. AniDB is the Fribb mapping's own primary key, so it now travels on
`ExternalIds` and indexes those rows directly — 7177 of them expose no
tvdb/tmdb/imdb at all and were unreachable by any other path. Only plain
`anidb-` maps: `anidb2`..`anidb9` group several AniDB entries under one
TVDB-numbered show, so the guid names the root entry only.
Two guards keep the new id where it means something. It is trusted for
season 1, because that mode puts the anime there and its specials in
season 0, while a higher season means the library is numbered by TVDB
instead. And it resolves nothing for Trakt and Simkl, which never map
anime and cannot address an AniDB id, so they keep reporting no ids
rather than failing silently further down. `hasCatalogIds` marks the
callers that can only speak IMDb/TMDB/TVDB.
close#1788
Episode advance carried live player state, so the viewer's choice only
survived while every episode could serve it: one episode without the
picked audio or subtitle fell back, and the fallback became the carry for
the rest of the session. The screen now keeps the last explicit audio,
subtitle, and secondary-subtitle choices for its lifetime; automatic
outcomes never overwrite them, so the choice retries on every following
episode and reattaches as soon as a catalog can serve it again.
Audio catches up with the subtitle carry from #1785. The old matcher
required raw language equality (a 'sv' pick never found a 'swe' row) and
otherwise took the first same-language track, flipping a commentary or
alternate-mix pick back to the main mix on every episode. Audio now uses
the same evidence bands as subtitles: bridged language parity is
authoritative, a unique title match vouches for untagged tracks, codec
and channel-count parity only break ties, and an ambiguous catalog
declines to the server's own choice instead of guessing. The synthesized
source descriptor also prefers the row's own title over the display title
that collapses to the bare language.
Episode advance previously sent no audio hint to negotiation at all, so a
transcode baked in the server's default audio no matter what was playing.
Both backends now resolve the carried semantics against the new episode's
streams: Jellyfin sends the resolved AudioStreamIndex, Plex feeds the
transcode decision, an explicit per-part stream id always wins, and a
failed match falls back to the server's pick.
close#1785
Jellyfin has no equivalent of Plex's bundled `?includeOnDeck=1`, so a show
detail open chained `/Shows/NextUp` behind the item fetch and the screen sat
on a spinner for both round trips. The second one is not needed to paint:
everything except the play button's episode label comes from the item.
`fetchItemWithOnDeck` now takes an `onItemReady` callback and invokes it as
soon as the item is known, when that is strictly before on-deck settles.
Plex returns both together and never invokes it.
Phone and desktop only. TV keeps its own reveal gate — `_isTvDetailReadyToReveal`
holds the foreground at opacity 0 until extras, related hubs, seasons and the
first episode page have all loaded, and those still run after the on-deck
lookup settles, so TV sees no change. Both halves are pinned by tests.
Measured on a remote Jellyfin server, 15 interleaved show-detail opens per
version: time to content 1264ms -> 1042ms (-18%), with the rest of the load
unchanged.
Seasons and extras deliberately still start after the whole lookup settles.
Starting them at the early paint measured worse (time to settled +21%)
because they contend with the on-deck request instead of overlapping it — the
same reason `/Shows/NextUp` is not fired in parallel with the item fetch.
That trade-off is also why TV was left alone rather than being unblocked by
moving those loads earlier.
Two ordering hazards the early paint introduces, both covered by
`media_detail_screen_test.dart`:
- The early call must not write on-deck. `_loadFullMetadata` runs again after
playback, and clearing there would blank the play button for the length of
the round trip. `onDeckSettled` marks the authoritative write, so a reload
that finds the series finished still clears it.
- A settled empty on-deck must not drop the episode-derived fallback that
`_ensureFallbackOnDeckEpisode` supplies.
close#1784
The Discover tab fanned out its whole request set twice on every cold
start and replayed slow rows on a shrinking timeout ladder, so a healthy
remote server produced anywhere from 4s to 15s of loading.
Measured against a remote Jellyfin server with four libraries, 24
interleaved cold-start samples per side:
requests 19 -> 9 payload 219 KB -> 94 KB
settled 5231ms -> 2502ms median, 13222ms -> 5927ms p95
Four independent causes:
- Retry policy. `Client.send` resolves on response headers, so the
connect budget covers the server's think time and a slow-but-alive
query raises `connectionTimeout`. Replaying it made the server re-run
the query with a shorter budget than the one it just missed; the
`[10s, 8s, 5s]` ladder turned an 11s answer into an empty row after
23s. Hub surfaces now get one whole-request deadline, retry only
immediate connection errors, and the deadline bounds the whole call
including the request still in flight.
- Request shape. `/Items/Latest` groups a TV library by series, so its
rows are Series folder dtos and `RecursiveItemCount`/`ChildCount` cost
a DB count each, per row. Hub rows now ask for `Overview` only; watch
state survives because Jellyfin derives `UserData.Played` from
`UnplayedItemCount` when the count fields are absent. `/Shows/NextUp`
sends `NextUpDateCutoff` to bound the server's series-key scan, and
`Thumb` leaves `EnableImageTypes` since nothing reads it. `UserData`
and `PremiereDate` leave the browse set: neither is an `ItemFields`
member, so the server dropped them anyway.
- Fan-out. Per-library hubs ran in batches of three separated by a
barrier, so one slow library stalled every library behind it. A
sliding window keeps the same peak concurrency without head-of-line
blocking. Concurrent `fetchLibraries` calls now share one `/Views`
instead of racing two identical round trips, Plex's global and music
hub legs start together, and Jellyfin gets Plex's pool tuning.
- Duplicate pass. `DiscoverScreen.initState` starts a load and the
online-entry hook asked for a full refresh on top of it, which
`CoalescedLoadCoordinator` correctly queued as a trailing pass. The
hook now calls `primeRefresh`, which rides along with a load already
in flight; profile switches still go through `fullRefresh`.
Refs #1784
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.
close#1740
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.
