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
- useMediaWebSocket: shallowRef mediaIndex/tasks/loading/error/connected
to eliminate Proxy overhead on the entire library data structure.
- useMediaWebSocket: replace per-task setTimeout leak with single 3s
sweep interval for completed task cleanup.
- App.vue: remove {deep:true} watcher on mediaIndex; shallow ref change
is sufficient to trigger search worker sync.
- useGamepadNavigation: rAF only when gamepads are connected; idle
fallback to 500ms setTimeout to stop permanent 60fps CPU drain.
- useKeyboardNavigation: deduplicate synced scroll rAF requests to
prevent overlapping animation frames.
- MediaDetail/SeriesFullView/CollageHero: pause, clear src, and load()
video elements on unmount and before ref replacement to release
decoder/memory resources.
- MediaDetail/SeriesFullView: clear all volume fade intervals on
unmount to stop interval timer leaks.
When clicking a search result, showDetail navigates to the detail page.
The route.fullPath watcher then clears searchQuery, which propagates to
Header's localSearch watcher, which emits @search='', which calls
updateSearchQuery(''). This in turn called clearSearch(), which did a
router.replace() to the category page because it didn't check whether
the current route actually had a search query.
The fix: in clearSearch(), if there's no search query in the current
URL, just clear reactive state and return without navigating. This
breaks the circular flow that was overwriting the detail-page
navigation.
Remove the separate Play and Info buttons from the CollageHero featured
item. All collage items (including the featured one) are now uniform
<a href> links that navigate to the detail page.
- CollageHero: remove hasResumePosition prop, play/info emits, and
associated play button logic
- App.vue: remove @play and @info bindings from CollageHero
- Delete unused HeroSection.vue component and its styles
When typing in the search bar on a detail page, navigating to search
results would trigger restoreFocusForPage(), which focused the 'last
viewed' card and interrupted typing. Skip focus restoration whenever
the search input is currently the active element.
- Add root_id to Torrent type for per-torrent root tracking
- Merge movies: combine all torrents, keep best metadata, sort by quality
- Merge series: combine seasons/episodes/torrents across roots
- Torrents are quality-sorted (resolution, HDR, DV, Atmos) across all roots
- App.vue play/openFolder use torrent-specific root_id when available
- 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
