For triaging webview rendering issues without devtools: settings panel
now shows app version, the webview user agent, and the application log
(pre-wrap, 80ch, scrollable, refreshable). New endpoints /api/version,
/api/log; client-side JS errors are captured globally and posted to
/api/client-log (client-errors.log in the log dir).
- Fix merged playback-state dropping season/episode, which broke series
resume restore entirely.
- Track watch progress per episode (episodes map keyed S..E.., with done
markers on completion) while keeping one continue point per series as
the last watched episode, used for spoiler protection and season
selection. MPC-BE tracker resumes from each episode's own position.
- Assumed-playback fallback for any player and server-only mode: a launch
starts a session and the guessed position (base + elapsed, capped at
runtime) is written when frontend activity resumes; the real MPC-BE
tracker overrides guesses via timestamps. Frontend reports input
activity (throttled) via POST /api/activity.
- Ignore watches under 5 minutes in both trackers.
- Episode tiles show a small quadrant-circle watch indicator; near end
counts as fully watched, no data shows nothing.
- Fix episode audio ownership: single audioOwnerKey shared by mouse hover
and keyboard/gamepad focus, no longer clobbered by playback sync;
idle fade can be re-armed by continued activity.
- RootScanner takes indexed_paths (store torrent keys); a candidate is
skipped only when its mtime is unchanged AND it is present in the index,
so an emptied/partial index self-heals on the next pass (non-indexable
OTHER candidates still skip on mtime alone)
- discovery: a directory that cannot be listed (transient SMB failure)
now carries its previously known paths into the Sync set instead of
dropping them, and an unreadable media root fails the whole scan —
previously both produced a partial/empty known_paths that made
sync_torrent_paths delete items that still exist on disk
- worker: broad per-directory exception guard (carry known paths, stay
hot, keep other workers running); node completion hardened against
double-decrement; backoff state not updated from cancelled walks
Backend:
- Add mediahive/players.py with cross-platform player detection:
- Windows: MPC-BE, MPC-HC, VLC, PotPlayer, mpv (registry + known paths)
- macOS: IINA, VLC (/Applications bundle scanning)
- Linux: VLC, SMPlayer (PATH via which)
- Add GET /api/players endpoint returning detected players
- Extend POST /api/roots/{id}/play to accept player_id and player_custom_cmd
- Make MPC-BE web UI port configurable via ?port= query param
Frontend:
- Add player selection to settings (localStorage, per-client)
- Two-column layout: player list (9.5em) + contextual options panel
- Contextual options: Custom Command input, MPC Web UI Port input
- Empty MPC port disables all Web UI polling/connection attempts
- MPC-BE polling only runs when MPC family player is selected and port is set
Use SHParseDisplayName + SHOpenFolderAndSelectItems to open the parent folder and select files with special-character paths. Keep explorer.exe /n,/select as a fallback when the API path fails.
- Remove legacy endpoints: /api/change-folder, /api/index, /api/scan, /api/status,
/api/playback/resume-positions
- Remove legacy global scanner module-level API from hivescan/scanner.py
- Defer all filesystem validation to background task in server lifespan (macOS-safe)
- CLI and winmain pass raw paths via MEDIAHIVE_ROOTS; no pre-startup validation
- Enforce POSIX paths everywhere (as_posix(), no backslash leakage)
- Remove MEDIAHIVE_PATH and MEDIAHIVE_DEFER_INITIAL_ROOT env vars
- Update frontend api.ts to use per-root resume positions
- Update docs/API.md and docs/multi-index-plan.md
- Fix Python 2 style except clauses in hivescan/utils.py and scanning.py
Bug 1 (shutdown hang):
- Add _kill_proc() helper to force-kill ffmpeg subprocesses immediately
when a showreel generation task is cancelled or fails.
- Unlink the incomplete output file after killing the process.
- Applies to both generate_showreel_images() and generate_episode_reel().
Bug 2 (path inconsistency):
- Use .as_posix() instead of str() for all persisted and stored paths
across the codebase (config, env vars, index store, API responses,
torrent paths, playable files, cover images, episode reels, etc.).
- Ensures forward slashes are used exclusively even on Windows.
