"commit": "9f41cac14842f6792d1f8156ad758c79e551faef",
"message": "This update adds per-show alternate episode orders, a Download range for logs, an opt-in anonymous install check and a Plembfin image notice, and fixes Trakt double writes and many sync, restore and sign-in gaps.",
"websiteUrl": "https://plekt.net",
"author": "Lasikiewicz",
"details": [
"Feature: Choose Aired, DVD or any other order TVDB lists for a show from its Episode order menu, using TVDB's own name for the order. The dialog says plainly when a show has no alternative orders.",
"Feature: Review, save, replace and remove DVD-to-aired episode links from the show menu. Each link records which order it belongs to, and links saved before this count as DVD.",
"Feature: Plex library-change notifications, the scheduled recently-watched import for Plex, Emby and Jellyfin, and live-session completion now translate the chosen episode order before saving, so nothing is stored under the media server's own numbers.",
"Feature: A watch whose episode cannot be translated is skipped and logged with the reason, and the rest of the poll carries on.",
"Feature: Choosing a non-Aired episode order for a show now warns that Simkl cannot confirm the episode and requires a checkbox before it can be used; without Simkl connected, a shorter note explains the same.",
"Feature: Watches for a show in a non-Aired order are no longer sent to Simkl, while Plex, Emby, Jellyfin and Trakt still receive them. Other shows are not affected, and a Simkl item skipped by this policy is closed instead of being resent every minute.",
"Feature: Download Logs on the Logs screen now has a Download range choice (last hour, 6 hours, 24 hours, 3 days or all kept logs) and exports up to the 20,000 lines Plekt keeps instead of the newest 500, and its Clear, Download and Copy buttons stay visible on shorter windows.",
"Feature: Installs still running the Plembfin Docker image now see a dismissible notice card at the top of the app that tells them to switch to the Plekt image, with a link to the switch steps.",
"Feature: The notice returns after each update until the install switches, and never appears on the Plekt image.",
"Feature: Added four short switch steps for Docker Compose, Docker run, Unraid and Watchtower to the README and the upgrade guide, and stated that the old image names keep receiving updates until at least 11 April 2027.",
"Feature: Add an optional anonymous daily install check in the Privacy section of General. It is off until you turn it on, shows the exact payload it would send, and sends no identifier, server address or library data.",
"Fix: Stop a saved watch from being split into two Trakt writes that left it held for review, and keep a manual watch on Trakt when Retry Sync replays it.",
"Tweak: Block watch-state changes when episode identities cannot be verified for every required destination, including before clearing progress or removing episodes.",
"Tweak: Prevent stale background retries from restoring a deleted or superseded watch.",
"Tweak: The Logs screen fills the window with the same gap at the bottom as the other edges, and the filter box and Download range dropdown now match the rest of the app, with their labels beside them.",
"Tweak: Log entries on a phone show the message on its own full-width line instead of one word per line.",
"Tweak: The show and movie Info panel on a phone starts below the top bars, so its poster and title are no longer hidden, and a long title wraps by words instead of one letter per line.",
"Tweak: Show the last confirmed Up Next cards while checking for changes after a reload",
"Tweak: Reuse shared snapshots and saved library answers to reduce repeated queue builds",
"Tweak: Pages and the API stay responsive while tracker polls, cache warm-ups and Up Next rebuilds run; requests that took up to 22 seconds now answer in well under one",
"Tweak: Settings storage totals load quickly on large artwork caches, the changelog loads quickly after the first view, and the Logs page stops polling while its tab is hidden",
"Tweak: Up Next: one queue change now causes fewer rebuilds (a removal went from 5 builds to 3), and an automatic push no longer sends the same queue to your providers twice after their own echo",
"Tweak: Up Next: the diagnostic log now shows who asked for each build, why the saved queue was out of date, and exactly which cards were added, removed or reordered",
"Tweak: Restoring a full Plekt backup now saves a recovery copy of your current database first, and the error names where it is if the restore fails part way",
"Tweak: Safety snapshots taken before imports or syncs are kept for at least seven days, and one locked backup file no longer stops old backups being cleaned up",
"Tweak: Diagnostic logs are kept for fourteen days instead of being cut at twenty files, orphaned artwork is cleaned up daily, and the database log file is trimmed so it stops growing without limit",
"Tweak: Artwork and show-progress files are written safely so a failed write keeps the previous complete file, and oversized artwork downloads are stopped early",
"Tweak: Force Sync reads every Plex section in pages and reports a failed or incomplete library scan instead of treating it as empty, so nothing is wrongly replayed",
"Tweak: Force Sync is faster: library replay runs four items at once while keeping each item's order, Emby and Jellyfin scans use cheaper paging, and cancelling a preview stops it between pages",
"Tweak: A watch is no longer sent twice when a live play and the background retry overlap, and the retry pass no longer repeats work for rows that do not need it",
"Tweak: Trakt rejecting only some items in a batch now keeps the successful ones settled and retries just the rejected ones, and an unidentifiable rejection is held for review instead of being retried blindly",
"Tweak: Dropped titles sync to Trakt and Simkl per user, a failed write is retried after an hour, and a new drop or un-drop retries immediately without two processes sending the same change",
"Tweak: A rating list that comes back completely empty from a provider is held for review instead of clearing your ratings, and a lost playlist ledger no longer removes entries from the connected server",
"Tweak: TMDB and TVDB rate limits are handled with bounded retries and a short cool-down, and Plex live-connection restarts no longer open duplicate sockets or poll in a tight loop",
"Tweak: Watching the same title twice in one local day is judged by your server's calendar day, Plex ids with query strings are read correctly, and the Sync jobs list pages correctly",
"Tweak: Browser caches for posters, details and search results are capped so a long session no longer keeps growing",
"Tweak: A signed-in added user can no longer read the administrator's API key or webhook secret by sending any API key header",
"Tweak: Backup restore and backup upload on the Restore page are now for the install administrator only",
"Tweak: Backup uploads are limited to 4 GB and are refused when the server would be left with too little free disk space",
"Tweak: Testing a Plex, Emby or Jellyfin connection only uses the saved token for the saved server address; a different address needs the token entered",
"Tweak: An added user no longer sees the admin's watch history, shows, movies, stats or dashboard preview when both happen to be at the same data version",
"Tweak: The pending manual-review list is cached per user as well",
"Tweak: Switching between users no longer forces their caches to rebuild; up to 8 users stay cached in memory",
"Tweak: Logging out now revokes that session for good, even after a restart or from another process, and each session cookie is unique",
"Tweak: Changes made from another website or an untrusted origin are rejected, while your own pages and server-to-server callers such as webhooks keep working",
"Tweak: The cron and stop endpoints now refuse plain GET requests, and webhook errors no longer reveal internal error details",
"Tweak: Successful logins no longer count against the failed-login allowance",
"Tweak: Login and claim requests are limited to 32 KiB and webhooks to 1 MiB before they are read",
"Tweak: The saved settings file is created readable only by Plekt before any secrets are written to it",
"Tweak: Redirects to another site no longer carry your tokens, API keys or request bodies with them",
"Tweak: New website guide on importing each friend's Tautulli watch history into their own Plekt user and Emby or Jellyfin account",
"Tweak: The Guides list, the Users settings guide and the Tautulli guide now link to it"

"brandMigration": "plekt",
"author": "Lasikiewicz",
"details": [
"Feature: Rename the app to Plekt",
"Feature: New Plekt wordmark in the sidebar, sign-in, setup and About pages, in dark and light, with the old logo's heavier lettering and diagonal cut",
"Feature: New app icon for the browser tab, home screen and Windows, with a dark background that fills the icon on phones",
"Feature: New icon for the app's own entries in watch rows and Force Sync",
"Feature: The app, sign-in, setup, About pages and browser tab now say Plekt throughout",
"Feature: Settings given as PLEMBFIN_ environment variables keep working, and the same settings can use PLEKT_ names",
"Feature: Webhooks accept the secret in an X-Plekt-Webhook-Secret header as well as the older X-Plembfin-Webhook-Secret header",
"Feature: New backups are named plekt-backup and plekt-watch-history; backups made earlier still restore, still appear in lists and still count toward retention",
"Feature: Remote backup retention orders files by the date in their name, so older-named files are removed first",
"Feature: New installs store data in plekt.db; an existing plembfin.db is kept and used",
"Feature: Docker images publish under the plekt name, and the old plembfin image name keeps receiving releases with an in-app notice about the change",
"Feature: The Windows installer moves an existing Plembfin service and data folder to the Plekt names",
"Feature: The default published port moves from 5055 to 5056 (set with PLEKT_PUBLISHED_PORT). Move guide: https://plekt.net/docs/moving-to-port-5056/",
"Feature: In-app help links point to plekt.net",
"Feature: Audit history payloads are size-limited so the database grows more slowly, and unexpected process errors are handled more safely",
"Feature: Choose a dashboard port during Windows installation or upgrade, with the setting applied to the service, tray, shortcuts, and optional firewall rule.",
"Fix: Refresh dashboard data and avoid Seerr port conflict",
"Fix: Refresh watch history and Up Next when the dashboard opens, showing loading or unavailable feedback until fresh server data arrives.",
"Fix: Use port 5056 as Plembfin's default so it can run alongside Seerr on 5055; Docker still listens internally on 5055.",
"Fix: Use SHA-256 poster-cache IDs and re-key existing cache rows without losing stored artwork.",
"Fix: Check SQLite integrity before a full restore and explain recovery options when the database is corrupt.",
"Fix: Refresh Resume and Up Next after focus or connectivity returns, and sort resume cards by the latest parsed progress update.",
"Fix: Retry an episode mutation once after refreshing stale series indexes for Plex, Emby, and Jellyfin.",
"Fix: Show the final provider reason when a destination is skipped in Sync Activity.",
"Fix: Start media details at the top of their scroll area.",
"Tweak: Set separate retention periods for local and remote full backups.",
"Tweak: Default backup retention to seven days.",
"Tweak: Plembfin is now Plekt. Docker users: change the image to ghcr.io/lasikiewicz/plekt or plembfin/plekt, keep the same tag, volumes and settings. Both old image names receive updates for at least six months after this release."

"details": [
"Feature: A Classic/Modern switch in the sidebar, above the Light/Dark toggle, adds a Modern style for dark and light mode: rounded gradient cards with an accent hover, provider-coloured app names, and the title's backdrop artwork behind dashboard cards and the dashboard background",
"Feature: The Modern look extends to History, Discover, Watchlist, Ratings, Playlists, Movies and TV, movie and show pages, and Settings, with backdrops that load as cards scroll into view and are retried when a lookup fails",
"Feature: In the Modern style, the featured Up Next card spans the top panel while nothing is playing, playing sessions share the backdrop layout side by side, and phones get a compact Up Next card with the poster beside the details",
"Feature: Episodes of a show watched in a row fold into one stacked run card showing the episode range and count on the dashboard and in History, and a button beside each Recently watched row folds its cards into posters, remembered per row",
"Feature: With Posters only on, clicking a poster opens its card in place on Library, Discover, History, Watchlist, Ratings, and Playlists",
"Feature: Custom Lists are now Playlists, listed above Ratings and synced two ways with Plex, Emby, and Jellyfin, with the apps chosen per playlist, drag and drop reordering, a Recently deleted pop-up, and moves made in an app read back",
"Feature: Playlists can be Movies, TV, or Mixed; TV playlists hold single episodes chosen with an episode picker, and playlists made in Plex, Emby, or Jellyfin can be imported, merged into a same-name playlist or kept separate",
"Feature: Automatic playlists fill themselves from a rule (Top rated, Popular, Trending this week, or New releases, plus genres, language, years, watched state, and recently added) from your libraries or the TMDB catalogue, refresh hourly, and are sent one way to the apps",
"Feature: Automatic TV playlists hold the next episode to watch of each show, and the new Remove items once watched setting drops watched movies and episodes from a playlist",
"Feature: Full Plembfin backups of any size restore on the server from the backup list or an uploaded file, with progress, a full check of the file before anything changes, and downloads of large backups",
"Fix: Connecting Trakt, Plex, or Jellyfin (including Jellyfin Quick Connect) no longer gets stuck on Waiting for confirmation with Same-origin request required when Plembfin is opened by a plain HTTP LAN address (#39)",
"Fix: Watched state sent from Plex now reaches episodes on Jellyfin and Jellyfin-compatible servers whose normal episode search returns only the season, which failed with No matching item in Jellyfin library (#38)",
"Fix: Up Next shows each show once and hides the episode playing right now until playback stops, and the Now Playing card no longer stays on screen after playback ends",
"Fix: Nightly backups are written to disk in small pieces instead of in memory, where a 490 MB backup needed about 3 GB and got the server killed; a failed day is retried at most three times an hour apart, and Backblaze uploads are sent from disk without a 60 second cutoff",
"Fix: Backups made by the server can be restored from the Restore page, which always said the passphrase was wrong",
"Fix: Plex no longer ignores some playlist moves",
"Fix: A scheduled step that outlasts its time slot, such as a large nightly backup, is logged as still running and then finished instead of as a false timed-out failure, and the Manual Watch review notice stays in the sidebar when a new item is flagged",
"Tweak: Faster loading: a show's seasons open in milliseconds instead of about 7 seconds on a large library, Up Next rebuilds are about twice as fast, the dashboard history preview is less than half its old size, sign-in checks no longer block the server, and the TV Shows page keeps its cards on screen while loading more",
"Tweak: Fewer wasted requests: Movies and TV posters that fail to load are looked up together in one request, the dashboard asks for Up Next once, and Settings makes no status requests before you sign in",
"Tweak: Tablet and phone layouts are tidier: dashboard cards keep a fixed-width poster, the featured Up Next cards sit side by side, card text and Watch Now links fit the card, playlist posters open without being cut off, and long Movies titles stay inside their card",
"Tweak: Movies and TV cards show the title's summary, Watchlist, Ratings, Playlists, and Discover show the release date without a dash, History drops the sync status and size slider, and the poster, card, and compact view icons are redesigned"

"message": "This update keeps shows that share a title apart, makes Up Next sync with Plex, Emby and Jellyfin more reliable, syncs rating changes made on any service, and adds a Watch-State Aliases repair card.",
"websiteUrl": "https://plembfin.com",
"author": "Lasikiewicz",
"details": [
"Feature: Rating changes made directly on Plex, Emby, Jellyfin or Trakt now sync out to every other service unless a local edit is genuinely newer; an unchanged rating is no longer re-imported on every scan, a stale pending local write no longer wins a conflict, and clearing a rating on Jellyfin takes effect",
"Feature: Settings > Tools > Database Repairs has a Watch-State Aliases card listing episode watch states the automatic repair could not tie to their show, with the reason for each; Belongs to this show moves them into the show, keeping the newest watch state, and Different show stops them being listed or moved again. Only Plembfin's own watch state changes",
"Feature: The media detail header has a new layout: a facts table for status, genres, network, language and runtime, TV status reading Released - date - status, external ratings as logo badges with scores, and ratings beside the progress bar; its rating pill and watchlist and list buttons reflect your data on a fresh direct page load",
"Fix: Shows that share a title but have different TMDB or TVDB ids, such as Scrubs and its 2026 reboot, are kept apart everywhere: they no longer merge into one Up Next card, appear twice, overwrite each other's identity, progress or poster, merge in Recently Watched, or skip a first watch because the other show has one at that season and episode",
"Fix: Watching, unwatching, clearing progress on, removing or restoring one same-title show no longer changes, hides, fades or brings back the other show's episodes, cards, history entries or pending reviews, including during Jellyfin scheduled sync and from a show's page",
"Fix: When two Plex shows share a title, Up Next, Watch now and watch sync use the show whose ids match, and a Plex title with a country tag such as The Assembly (UK) gets its Watch now link; on Emby or Jellyfin an ambiguous title is skipped instead of written to both, a title with a year such as Scrubs (2026) finds only that show, and a card for a show no library holds is no longer linked to a same-name show",
"Fix: Up Next syncing no longer removes items from Plex or Emby Continue Watching just because Plembfin's queue does not list them; items leave only when you clear progress or remove them in Plembfin, the sync message reports how many app-only items were left in place, and a refresh with nothing new no longer triggers a needless sync",
"Fix: Clearing progress no longer comes back as a resume card when a server still reports the old position and now reaches Trakt; a part-watched movie stays at the front of Up Next, and stopping part-way, clearing progress, or marking watched or unwatched on the dashboard updates the Up Next rail straight away",
"Fix: Up Next offers the right episode: marking an episode watched brings in the correct next one, a Continue Watching episode with no position shows as next rather than 0%, episodes removed from every library are no longer offered, refreshing Emby or Jellyfin's native rail no longer unmarks or re-dates the previous episode, and a later watch no longer makes an earlier unwatched episode read as watched",
"Fix: Emby part-watches reach Up Next even when the episode was once marked unwatched, and Up Next syncing no longer adds a play to Emby's count; starting an episode in Jellyfin no longer counts as an unwatch, and part-watching one version of a multi-version Jellyfin episode is picked up by the resume check",
"Fix: Up Next cards keep their Plex, Emby and Jellyfin Watch now links in more cases, including cards only Emby or Jellyfin lists, shows resumed after being fully unwatched, and part-watches Jellyfin leaves out of Next Up; resume progress keeps the reported IMDb and TMDB ids and no longer adds an empty Part Watched card",
"Fix: An offline media server is stood down briefly, skipped by the Up Next push and queued for a push as soon as it answers; restarting Plembfin keeps the cards only that server can confirm, the dashboard shows its connection-unavailable line within about a minute, and the Up Next response is no longer cached by the browser",
"Fix: Marking an episode unwatched while Up Next is syncing no longer puts it back to watched on Jellyfin, Emby or Plex, and new episodes or movies added to Plex no longer create unwatched history entries or send unwatches to Emby, Jellyfin and Trakt",
"Fix: Watches reported only through a watched-library scan are stored under the show with show and episode ids, and duplicate episode watch states are matched to their show through TVDB, TMDB and the show's own IMDb or TVDB id, so more are cleaned up automatically",
"Fix: Manual Watch review: the sidebar count matches the page, the page no longer reloads repeatedly, each review names the show its ids prove, season and show actions are one watched and one unwatched button with the media page's date popup and confirmation, reviews without ids stay pending when two shows share a title, and items already watched are no longer queued or left lingering",
"Fix: A Tautulli import skips a play older than the item's newest unwatch, and no longer skips a real episode play as a duplicate of a different episode of the same show",
"Fix: Plex watchlist sync resolves a common or duplicate title by year and then by the item's real provider ids, so it no longer gets stuck as not available, including two separate Arrival (2016) entries",
"Tweak: Interface fixes: the Upcoming control bar matches the media action pills, the poster size slider leads the Movies and TV Shows control bars, the Dismissed Up Next pop-up shows up to six cards per row, the Mark watched date dialog buttons work from a dashboard card menu, browser tabs show the Plembfin logo again, a restore log shows its final lines, and Sync Activity lists cross-platform match issues with Fix match and Remove again"

"Fix: Clicking a TV show poster or title from Up Next or watch history opens the show page instead of an episode-specific route",
"Fix: Preserve the relevant season when opening a TV show from dashboard history surfaces",
"Fix: Speed up media pages by deferring off-screen artwork",
"Fix: Opening a movie or show page no longer downloads its whole cast row, poster rails and trailer thumbnails before you have scrolled to them",
"Fix: Those images load as they come into view, so the details, watch state and app links on screen settle sooner on a first visit",
"Fix: Revisiting a title is unchanged, since its artwork was already served from the browser cache",
"Fix: Repair Up Next cards built from raw media-server data",
"Fix: An Up Next card whose provider data carried the episode's own ID in place of the show's now links to the correct show page instead of one that cannot load",
"Fix: Those cards show their poster again rather than a blank placeholder, where the media server had supplied an image address only it could resolve",
"Fix: A card left with no usable show identity links by title instead of to a page that resolves to nothing",
"Fix: Speed up non-library show pages and repair Up Next links",
"Fix: Up Next now links an episode to the same show page as your watch history does; it previously built that link from the episode's own ID, opening a page that could not resolve and was slow to load",
"Fix: Opening a show that is not in your library is far quicker: the page's slowest request drops from about 8.9 seconds to under 0.7",
"Fix: Such a show is no longer looked up over and over during one page load, so its details settle sooner",
"Fix: The open-in-Plex/Emby/Jellyfin lookup runs once per page instead of three times, and a title found in no connected server is remembered briefly rather than re-searching every server each time",
"Fix: A show sharing its name with another in your library keeps linking by title rather than risking the wrong show's page",
"Fix: Speed up history and remove large-library limits",
"Fix: History page now loads in milliseconds instead of around seven tenths of a second on large libraries, with same-day rewatch collapsing unchanged",
"Fix: Stats reports your entire watch history instead of silently describing only the newest 25,000 watches",
"Fix: TV Shows and the dashboard list every show in the library rather than stopping at the same 25,000-watch ceiling",
"Fix: Media pages no longer re-check for app updates or refetch diagnostic logs on every load",
"Fix: Platform icons are fetched once per page instead of three times under three different addresses",
"Fix: The background scheduler holds its once-a-minute cadence instead of drifting further behind with every slow tick",
"Fix: Restore progress logs and login errors no longer display garbled characters",
"Fix: Watch history caches rebuild faster after a watch is recorded",
"Fix: Stop resume updates rebuilding library caches",
"Fix: Saving a resume position no longer throws away the cached history, movies, shows and stats data, none of which depends on it; with a dashboard open during playback that was spending 22% of the time rebuilding on a normal library and 47% on a very large one, and is now zero",
"Fix: Open pages still see resume progress move, because the change signal the browser watches now covers both watch history and resume positions",
"Fix: Marking something watched still refreshes every derived view exactly as before",
"Fix: Each build now serves its own asset URLs, so pulling a new build no longer leaves the browser running the previous build's JavaScript from cache",
"Fix: Make the media and library pages substantially faster",
"Fix: TV shows whose episodes all fall outside the most recent 25,000 watches no longer disappear from the TV Shows library; on a 90,000 watch test library that restored 408 missing shows",
"Fix: Opening a TV show or episode page no longer makes an external metadata request just to look up an id the app already stored, and no longer re-asks Plex, Emby and Jellyfin whether the title is available on every single load",
"Fix: An episode page asked the server for the same show record four times and now asks once, cutting about 1.1 seconds and 84KB from the load",
"Fix: Movie and show pages no longer carry streaming availability for every country in the world when only two are shown, taking a movie page's metadata from 100KB to 76KB and the stored metadata here from 105MB to 63MB",
"Fix: Movies pages answer from a cached projection instead of re-deriving the whole library each time: pages 1, 5 and 10 went from about 60ms to under 1ms on a 90,000 row library",
"Fix: Library pages load all of a screen's posters in one request rather than one per card, and adding another page of results now appends the new cards instead of rebuilding every card already on screen",
"Fix: The Stats page no longer downloads every period's report to display one, and the restore screen no longer re-downloads the whole restore report on every poll",
"Fix: Library reads are backed by new database indexes, taking season lookups from 798ms to 28ms and recent-order reads from 767ms to 48ms",
"Fix: Resolve code scanning alerts (#27) and close the remaining stack trace exposure (#28)",
"Fix: Normalize caught provider, credential, outbound, and watchlist errors before they can reach API responses",
"Fix: Movies pages now answer from a cached projection instead of re-deriving the whole library on every request: pages 1, 5 and 10 went from about 60ms to under 1ms on a 90,000-row library, and the page number no longer changes the cost",
"Fix: The Stats page no longer downloads every period's report just to display one; it receives the totals, a short list of the available years and months, and only the report being viewed, fetching a different period when you pick one",
"Fix: A completed restore's full result and log are stored separately from the live status row, so the restore screen stops re-downloading the entire report on every poll while still showing the whole log",
"Fix: Library reads are backed by new database indexes covering season and title lookups, provider ids and recent ordering, with planner statistics refreshed once after they are created",
"Fix: Poster and backdrop paths are stored as their own columns on the metadata cache, so artwork no longer requires parsing the full details blob",
"Fix: Keep media details visible during reload",
"Fix: Keep cached artwork, summaries, watched rows, and watch dates visible on direct detail reloads",
"Fix: Revalidate local history and provider metadata in the background without blanking the page",
"Fix: Keep episode-level provider identities from being promoted into the wrong series route",

"Preserve the selected season when canonicalizing a title-only TV show route",
"Clicking a TV show poster or title from Up Next or watch history opens the show page instead of an episode-specific route",
"Preserve the relevant season when opening a TV show from dashboard history surfaces",
"Speed up media pages by deferring off-screen artwork",
"Opening a movie or show page no longer downloads its whole cast row, poster rails and trailer thumbnails before you have scrolled to them",
"Those images load as they come into view, so the details, watch state and app links on screen settle sooner on a first visit",
"Revisiting a title is unchanged, since its artwork was already served from the browser cache",
"Repair Up Next cards built from raw media-server data",
"An Up Next card whose provider data carried the episode's own ID in place of the show's now links to the correct show page instead of one that cannot load",
"Those cards show their poster again rather than a blank placeholder, where the media server had supplied an image address only it could resolve",
"A card left with no usable show identity links by title instead of to a page that resolves to nothing",
"Speed up non-library show pages and repair Up Next links",
"Up Next now links an episode to the same show page as your watch history does; it previously built that link from the episode's own ID, opening a page that could not resolve and was slow to load",
"Opening a show that is not in your library is far quicker: the page's slowest request drops from about 8.9 seconds to under 0.7",
"Such a show is no longer looked up over and over during one page load, so its details settle sooner",
"The open-in-Plex/Emby/Jellyfin lookup runs once per page instead of three times, and a title found in no connected server is remembered briefly rather than re-searching every server each time",
"A show sharing its name with another in your library keeps linking by title rather than risking the wrong show's page",
"Speed up history and remove large-library limits",
"History page now loads in milliseconds instead of around seven tenths of a second on large libraries, with same-day rewatch collapsing unchanged",
"Stats reports your entire watch history instead of silently describing only the newest 25,000 watches",
"TV Shows and the dashboard list every show in the library rather than stopping at the same 25,000-watch ceiling",
"Media pages no longer re-check for app updates or refetch diagnostic logs on every load",
"Platform icons are fetched once per page instead of three times under three different addresses",
"The background scheduler holds its once-a-minute cadence instead of drifting further behind with every slow tick",
"Restore progress logs and login errors no longer display garbled characters",
"Watch history caches rebuild faster after a watch is recorded",
"Stop resume updates rebuilding library caches",
"Saving a resume position no longer throws away the cached history, movies, shows and stats data, none of which depends on it; with a dashboard open during playback that was spending 22% of the time rebuilding on a normal library and 47% on a very large one, and is now zero",
"Open pages still see resume progress move, because the change signal the browser watches now covers both watch history and resume positions",
"Marking something watched still refreshes every derived view exactly as before",
"Each build now serves its own asset URLs, so pulling a new build no longer leaves the browser running the previous build's JavaScript from cache",
"Make the media and library pages substantially faster",
"TV shows whose episodes all fall outside the most recent 25,000 watches no longer disappear from the TV Shows library; on a 90,000 watch test library that restored 408 missing shows",
"Opening a TV show or episode page no longer makes an external metadata request just to look up an id the app already stored, and no longer re-asks Plex, Emby and Jellyfin whether the title is available on every single load",
"An episode page asked the server for the same show record four times and now asks once, cutting about 1.1 seconds and 84KB from the load",
"Movie and show pages no longer carry streaming availability for every country in the world when only two are shown, taking a movie page's metadata from 100KB to 76KB and the stored metadata here from 105MB to 63MB",
"Movies pages answer from a cached projection instead of re-deriving the whole library each time: pages 1, 5 and 10 went from about 60ms to under 1ms on a 90,000 row library",
"Library pages load all of a screen's posters in one request rather than one per card, and adding another page of results now appends the new cards instead of rebuilding every card already on screen",
"The Stats page no longer downloads every period's report to display one, and the restore screen no longer re-downloads the whole restore report on every poll",
"Library reads are backed by new database indexes, taking season lookups from 798ms to 28ms and recent-order reads from 767ms to 48ms",
"Resolve code scanning alerts (#27) and close the remaining stack trace exposure (#28)",
"Normalize caught provider, credential, outbound, and watchlist errors before they can reach API responses",
"Movies pages now answer from a cached projection instead of re-deriving the whole library on every request: pages 1, 5 and 10 went from about 60ms to under 1ms on a 90,000-row library, and the page number no longer changes the cost",
"The Stats page no longer downloads every period's report just to display one; it receives the totals, a short list of the available years and months, and only the report being viewed, fetching a different period when you pick one",
"A completed restore's full result and log are stored separately from the live status row, so the restore screen stops re-downloading the entire report on every poll while still showing the whole log",
"Library reads are backed by new database indexes covering season and title lookups, provider ids and recent ordering, with planner statistics refreshed once after they are created",

"Stop updateWatchRecord's playstate rollback timing from racing",
"The known-flaky test (updateWatchRecord rolls the old media_key's playstate back to a survivor) was exposing a real bug, not just test noise: getPlaystateForMediaSync's title-based fallback can surface either an old or a migrated media_key's playstate row for a shared title, and updateWatchRecord picked between them with fresh Date.now() calls a few statements apart",
"When enough intervening work crossed a millisecond boundary, the newer write's timestamp would non-deterministically outrank the correct rolled-back row, so a Fix Match correction on a title-duplicate item could report the wrong watched state for the leftover, uncorrected identity",
"Reused the single updatedAt timestamp already captured for the row update across every playstate write in the same updateWatchRecord call (both the watched_at date-edit path and the identity-change rollback path), removing the timing dependency entirely",
"Verified with 40 back-to-back isolated runs of the previously-flaky test (0 failures, versus roughly 1-in-10 before) plus a full clean test suite run"

"Edit Watch Date dialog now shows each watch's platform badge (Plex/Emby/Jellyfin)",
"TV show control bar: Info moved to the end, the redundant Resync Watched button removed once a show is fully watched, and the top-bar Edit Date button removed",
"Expand All/Collapse All moved inline next to the Seasons heading, right-aligned",
"Availability pills (e.g. 15/40 Available, 7/40 Available in 4K) moved next to the season count in the Seasons heading",
"Plex/Emby/Jellyfin app-link pills moved inline into the ratings row, right-aligned, instead of inside the Media facts panel",
"Clicking the poster on a movie or show page now opens it in the photo lightbox",
"Cast photo thumbnails now use the same rounded corners as posters",
"Media facts panel redesigned: transparent card, real TMDB/TheTVDB/IMDb brand icons in a Ratings row, Plex/Emby/Jellyfin moved into a Watch Now row, Network and Available on show provider icons and link out to TMDB's where-to-watch page for the title",
"Network icons now match even when TMDB's network name differs from its watch-provider name (e.g. Prime Video vs Amazon Prime Video); shows resolved via TheTVDB still show network name as text only since TVDB has no logo data",
"Poster click now opens the photo lightbox, which renders with rounded corners to match posters",
"Dark mode's accent color changed from blue to orange (matching the active TV Shows sidebar tab) across buttons, links, and highlights app-wide; light mode keeps blue",
"Theme toggle now fades colors smoothly instead of switching instantly",
"Fixed several legacy CSS rules that were silently overriding new sizing/color rules with stale hardcoded values",
"Bumped cache-busting version strings for styles.css and the media detail modules so browsers pick up today's changes instead of serving stale cached copies",
"Force Sync and Full Sync Watchstates now process independent library items with bounded concurrency instead of one at a time, dramatically speeding up large plans without exceeding the outbound pacing governor's per-server request limits",
"Added a Fast Local-Network Sync checkbox to Settings -> Sync -> Sync Tuning (off by default) that raises those per-server limits further for setups where Plex, Emby, and Jellyfin are all self-hosted on the same trusted local network as Plembfin",
"Cancelling a Force Sync now lets already-in-flight items finish instead of stopping after a single item",
"Documented the new setting in Settings help, docs/settings.md, and the README configuration reference",
"Fast Local-Network Sync (and any other pacing profile choice) now actually stays saved instead of silently reverting to standard the moment anything reloads config, which happened immediately after clicking Save",
"The same silent-reset bug affected Sync Scope and the Authority (source-of-truth/conflict policy) settings, which are fixed by the same change",
"Root cause: the settings loader's env-default merge step rebuilt its config object without carrying these three sections through, so they were treated as never-set and reset to their hardcoded defaults on every read",
"Removing a duplicate watch (per-season, library-wide, or a single watch-date delete) could report an episode or movie as fully unwatched even though a real watch of it still existed, because the check only looked for survivors under the exact same media_key as the row just deleted",
"Two watch rows for the same episode can legitimately carry different media_keys (e.g. one recorded via a TMDB id, another via an IMDb id only), so that exact-key check missed the surviving row and wrongly propagated an unwatched state to Plex, Emby, Jellyfin, and Trakt",
"The check now reuses the same broader same-episode identity match already used to find which rows belong together, so a surviving watch under a different key is correctly detected and the corrected watched state is propagated instead",
"Added a regression test reproducing the exact scenario",
"Added GET /api/stale-pending-watch-audit and POST /api/stale-pending-watch-repair, generalizing the earlier Trakt play-history incident fix to any watch_history row left with no telemetry or an exhausted retry count from any source, not just the Trakt importer",
"The repair only resets retry bookkeeping so the existing scheduler backlog sweep performs a real dispatch and records what actually happened, rather than fabricating a settled telemetry",
"Added GET /api/split-identity-unwatch-audit (read-only) to find episodes where a genuine earlier watch is being shadowed by a later unwatched row recorded under a different identity key for the same episode - the aftermath of the deleteWatchDates media_key-split bug pushing a real unplayed mark to media servers, which Plembfin's own unwatched-fallback polls then correctly recorded back in as canonical",
"No automatic repair for the split-identity case yet - reverting an unwatch that was genuinely intentional would itself be a phantom watch, so candidates need manual review first",
"Documented both tools in docs/scheduled-sync.md alongside the existing Trakt-import repair",
"Fixed a real incident: a single Jellyfin burst (a library rescan, metadata refresh, or rate-limited response) falsely unwatched 264+ episodes across dozens of unrelated shows within about seven minutes, propagating the false unwatch on to Plex and Emby before anyone noticed",
"applyUnwatchedTransition now tracks a shared, database-backed count of automatic (non-manual) unwatches across Plex, Emby, Jellyfin, and Trakt, and holds back any single one once too many have been recorded in a short window instead of propagating it - this is the one place every automatic unwatch path already funnels through, so it protects all three media servers plus Trakt at once",
"Manual actions (marking something unwatched in Plembfin itself, Force Sync, Set Plembfin as Source of Truth, Trakt import) are never affected - only automatic, inbound-from-a-server decisions are rate-limited, and a person can still unwatch as much as they want in one sitting",
"Works correctly in a split web/worker deployment since the counter lives in the shared database, not in one process's memory",
"Added POST /api/split-identity-unwatch-repair: an explicit admin action that restores episodes already affected by this failure mode (found by the read-only audit added earlier) and re-pushes the corrected watched state to every connected platform",
"Documented both the prevention and the repair tool in docs/scheduled-sync.md",
"Removing duplicate watches (per-season or library-wide) could wrongly delete a genuinely watched episode and leave it unwatched, if the same episode also had an older, unrelated row that had been explicitly marked unwatched at some earlier point",
"The stale unwatched row isn't a countable duplicate watch at all, but duplicate-detection was treating it as one - and since it could sort ahead of the real watch (same or earlier timestamp), it got 'kept' as the supposed oldest copy while the actual watch was deleted as the 'duplicate', wrongly unwatching an item that was never actually duplicated",
"Library-wide scan/cleanup and the per-season 'Remove duplicate watches' control both now only ever compare rows that currently read as watched; a later explicit unwatch still shows in the play-history list, it's just never treated as a removable duplicate",
"Some episodes affected by the mass false-unwatch incident lost the shadowed watched row entirely rather than just having it shadowed (real cases: The 'Burbs S01E01, Silo S03E02) - every remaining row reads unwatched, so the existing split-identity audit never finds them",
"Added GET /api/likely-false-unwatch-audit (read-only): flags an episode where no row currently reads watched but at least one unwatched row came from an automatic source (plex/emby/jellyfin, never manual) with no surviving watched sibling anywhere - the same cascade signature as the split-identity case, just missing its watched half",
"Added POST /api/likely-false-unwatch-repair: consolidates every stale row for the episode into one fresh watched record using the oldest row's own date as the best evidence of a genuine watch, then re-pushes it to every connected platform",
"This fingerprint is less certain than the split-identity one (an automatic source is also what a genuine unwatch performed directly on a media server looks like), so it stays audit-only until real candidates are reviewed",
"Added regression tests for both the audit and the repair",
"Removing duplicate watches from a season or the whole library no longer wrongly deletes a watch you meant to keep just because it shares a similar timestamp with the one being removed (e.g. marking an episode watched using the same time as another episode, then cleaning up duplicates) - the episode no longer gets left fully unwatched as a side effect",
"Manually marking something watched inside Plembfin (not reported by Plex, Emby, or Jellyfin) now shows a Plembfin badge and logo instead of being mislabeled as a Plex watch",
"Deleting a watch date no longer falls back to fully unwatched just because the only row left over happens to carry an old unwatched marker - leaving that row standing (instead of deleting it too) is now treated as confirmation it should count as watched, and it gets pushed out to Plex, Emby, Jellyfin, and Trakt accordingly",
"A genuine, more recent deliberate unwatch is never overridden by this - an older row that is still genuinely marked watched always takes priority, so an intentional unwatch is never silently resurrected",
"A watch that gets re-dispatched later instead of right when it happened (e.g. the last watch date you leave standing after removing a duplicate) now reaches Trakt with its real recorded date and time, not the current moment - the scheduler's background retry queue was building its outbound payload without that date at all",
"Removing or correcting a watch date now records the real outcome of that sync (including which platforms it actually reached) on the affected record, instead of leaving it stuck showing a pending sync forever",
"The sidebar sync line is now always visible, reading \"Sync - Idle\" when nothing is running and \"Sync - x of x\" while a sync is in flight",
"Clicking the sync line opens a new Sync Activity page listing every synced media item in its own row, newest first",
"Each row shows where the sync request came from and which apps it was dispatched to, plus each target's result and any failure detail",
"Each row has a Download log button that saves that single item's full sync record as a plain-text log",
"The Sync Activity page refreshes itself while a sync is running so rows appear as they are dispatched",
"Target results are now the app's icon followed by its status instead of pills, coloured by outcome with the failure detail on hover",
"Trakt dispatches are named and shown as Trakt with their own icon rather than being labelled Plex, alongside Plex, Emby, Jellyfin, and Plembfin's own manual actions",
"The Download log button sits on the same line as the target results",
"Clicking a media title opens that title's page, using your library first and the recorded TMDB/TVDB ids otherwise",
"Clicking anywhere else on a row expands it to show that item's full log inline, and a background refresh keeps opened rows open",
"Mark-unwatched buttons (episode, season, and show) now show \"Unwatching...\" while removal is in flight instead of the mark-watched \"Syncing...\" label, and are properly disabled during that time",
"Removing a single watch date from the edit-date dialog now marks that specific row as unwatching, so it is not mislabeled if an unrelated sync re-renders the page underneath",
"The full search page and the topbar search dropdown now list what is on a connected media server ahead of TMDB/TheTVDB-only matches, instead of relying on incidental result ordering",
"Updated docs/media-detail.md and docs/history-search.md to describe the new busy-state tracking and search ordering",
"Removed the completed \"Unwatching\" label and \"local results first\" backlog items from TODO.md",
"Manual unwatch actions (Sync Activity Mark Unwatched, and the Continue Watching clear-progress unwatch) now log their origin as Manual instead of echoing whatever platform the original watch record happened to be sourced from",
"Fixes a misleading Sync Activity entry where marking an item unwatched in Plembfin showed \"Request came from: Trakt\" purely because that item's original watch had legacy provenance pointing at Trakt",
"Dispatch behavior is unchanged - this only corrects the recorded origin shown in Sync Activity and the per-record sync telemetry",
"Manual watched marks now use the release date when no threshold-reaching playback was detected, while explicit actions can proceed through the interactive sync lane.",
"Movies without provider IDs receive TMDB lookup before tracker dispatch.",
"Keep queued sync items visible, enrich movie provider IDs, and improve Trakt matching.",
"Preserves local watch history rows for TV seasons when upstream providers only index a partial episode list",
"Formats season headers to always include the season number alongside any custom season subtitle",
"Standardizes rating, network, and app icon dimensions to match the Plex baseline",
"Aligns genres across full-width rows when runtime is absent so network and ratings pair cleanly",
"Verify administrator username using constant-time comparison to prevent timing-based user enumeration",
"Extend TruffleHog secret scanning in CI to run on develop branch pushes and pull requests",
"Add automated unit tests for authentication verification edge cases",
"Sanitize 500 error responses in HTTP utility to prevent potential stack trace or file path exposure",
"Pass console error log arguments separately to prevent tainted format string warnings",
"Bump undici to 8.10.0 for upstream stream encoding and socket DNS origin fixes",
"Bump GitHub CodeQL action to v4.37.4"

"message": "Fix - Stop mark-watched syncs from blocking unrelated watch actions",
"author": "github-actions[bot]",
"details": [
"groupShowRows now clusters watch_history episode rows by shared provider id (imdb/tmdb/tvdb), the same union-find approach dedupeMovies already uses for films, instead of grouping purely by title",
"Fixes shows like a reboot/revival sharing an exact title with an unrelated original (Scrubs 2001 vs Scrubs 2026) silently blending their episode lists, seasons, and counts into one show page - Scrubs (2026) was showing Season 1 as 24 episodes (the 2001 original's count) instead of its real 9",
"Fixed the same title-only matching in mergeShowWithLoadedHistory (client-side merge of the dashboard history preview into a show's episode list) and in queryShowDetail's title-lookup fallbacks, which previously grabbed an arbitrary result once shows correctly split apart",
"No watch_history rows are changed; this only affects how episodes are grouped into a show for display",
"README overhaul: fixed the Docker Compose quick-start to pull the published :latest image instead of requiring a local clone and build, added a Which version should I run? section explaining the :latest/:alpha/:develop channels, and replaced the stale alpha-to-main branch description with the real develop -> alpha -> main model",
"Added CHANGELOG.md, generated from changelog.json by scripts/generate-changelog-md.js and regenerated automatically on every release, so release history is readable on GitHub without logging into a running instance",
"Updated CLAUDE.md and docs/development.md's branching sections, which still only documented the old two-branch alpha -> main flow despite this session's develop-branch work; renamed the Merge alpha with main command to the two-step Force to alpha / Force to main it actually is now",
"Fixed docker-publish-develop.yml reading a version field from changelog.develop.json that no longer exists (removed in the earlier develop build-counter change), which was silently publishing a bogus :undefined tag alongside the real develop images",
"A show reached via /tvshow/:key now delegates into the same TMDB/TVDB fetch-and-render pipeline the /tvshow/tmdb/:id and /tvshow/tvdb/:id routes already use, instead of a separate lighter render that never fetched season-level episode metadata - all three routes now show the same seasons, cast, images, and trailers for the same show",
"Fixed watched/unwatched/edit-date actions leaving the page stale or blank when viewing a show reached via its TVDB id: five places across watch-action.js and edit-dialogs.js only knew how to refresh a page by local key or TMDB id, never TVDB, so the post-action reload silently failed on that route",
"tmdb/tvdb-id links (search results, recommendations, cast filmography, the upcoming calendar, dashboard cards) now include a readable slug after the id - e.g. tmdb/202555-daredevil-born-again - so they're legible in the address bar immediately, even for a title with no watch history yet; the id alone still resolves the route and old links without a slug keep working",
"Fixed a show's displayed tmdb_id preferring a cached-but-possibly-wrong id (resolved by an earlier ambiguous title search and never written back onto any watch_history row) over the id already recorded on the show's own rows, which could permanently override correct data once a bad id got cached - affected the show list, show detail page, and the upcoming episodes calendar",
"A show whose every episode was marked unwatched became completely unreachable: gone from the TV Shows grid and dashboard, and its own detail page returned Not Found by both title and ID",
"Caused a stale-looking detail page after marking a show's last watched episode unwatched - the unwatch succeeded and synced correctly to Plex/Emby/Jellyfin/Trakt, but the page's live in-place refresh failed to re-fetch the now-invisible show and kept showing the old watched state until a manual reload",
"Shows now group and display correctly regardless of watched/unwatched state, rendering as \"0 of N episodes watched\" instead of vanishing; only genuinely untrustworthy library-scan rows are still excluded",
"Documented the corrected behavior in docs/tv-shows.md",
"Replaced the 20-cell Key Features table (paragraph-length cells, an empty header row causing extra whitespace at the top) with a scannable one-line-per-feature bullet list, linking to docs/architecture.md for depth",
"Condensed the densest prose sections (Sync safety, webhook setup, Trakt import/sync, setup guide) to their essential points, moving implementation detail into the existing docs/ pages instead of duplicating it in the README",
"Removed the emoji used on every section heading and nav link throughout the file",
"Trimmed the file from 512 to under 400 lines while keeping every setup instruction and reference table intact",
"Fixed a regression from the earlier fully-unwatched-show visibility fix: unwatching an episode inserts a fresh row timestamped now, and that was being read as the show's most recent watch, bumping it to the top of Watched Newest and inflating its displayed watched-episode count",
"Fixed a serious identity bug: a show's TVDB id was being read from any tracked episode row, but Plex/Emby/Jellyfin webhooks tag episodes with their own TVDB id, not the show's - using that id for TVDB series routing could load a completely unrelated show and sync watch state to it. A show's TVDB id is now only trusted once it has actually been resolved as a real series (search result, Fix Match, or a prior correct visit), never from a raw, unverified episode id",
"Season and show progress labels now show Removing... while an unwatch is in flight, instead of a stale watched count until the page finishes re-rendering",
"Added a regression test covering the TVDB identity fix",
"Detail-page Force Sync -> Import Watched Status was silently dropping any episode a server flagged as played but returned no watched timestamp for - common when episodes are bulk-marked watched through a server's own library UI rather than played through",
"Those episodes now import using the episode's own release date instead of being skipped, since this action is explicit and scoped to one title (unlike the automatic background sync, which still requires a real watched date to avoid manufacturing phantom watches across an entire library)",
"An episode with neither a watched date nor a release date is still skipped rather than given a fabricated date",
"Added regression tests for both the fallback and the still-skip case",
"A title lookup with no provider id to disambiguate by (queryShowDetail without an id) picked whichever matching cluster was most recently touched, with no regard for how much real history backed it",
"One bad Trakt import row resolving an ambiguous title to a completely unrelated show could outrank dozens of correctly identified episodes just by being newer, sending the whole show's page, Force Sync, and Fix Match to the wrong identity",
"Title lookups now prefer the substantially larger, established cluster over a much smaller one even when the smaller one is more recent; comparably-sized clusters still resolve by recency as before",
"Added a regression test and documented the tie-break in docs/tv-shows.md",
"After using Fix Match to repair a show's identity, the detail page briefly rendered 0 watched episodes even though the underlying data was already correct - the client's lookup for the show's cached full episode list only matched by tmdb_id or an exact title-slug match, both of which can miss right after a rematch (tmdb_id is cleared and re-backfilled in the background; the display title can legitimately drop a trailing year the provider's own name still carries)",
"The lookup now also matches by tvdb_id when the provider supplied one, so a repaired show renders its real watched state immediately instead of falling back to an empty placeholder",
"Documented the matching order in docs/tv-shows.md",
"Force Sync -> Import Watched Status decided whether to insert a watched record by checking findWatchedByAnyMediaKey (does any watched row exist anywhere in history), not the episode's actual current state",
"A later unwatch always wins the display's dedup tie-break by recency, so an old watched row can sit dormant on file while the show still displays and counts as unwatched - the old check treated that dormant row as proof there was nothing to do and silently skipped it",
"Now checks the actual canonical pointer (getCanonicalWatchState) instead, so a source confirming an episode is still watched inserts a fresh record and genuinely restores the correct watched state",
"Added a regression test documenting the exact gap between the two checks",
"Documented the fix in docs/media-detail.md",
"getCanonicalWatchState matches by provider id/media_key, but an incoming Plex/Emby/Jellyfin item's ids are episode-scoped (its own imdb/tvdb id, not the show's) and often don't match the playstate row's identity - the lookup fell through to the same any-watched-row check the previous fix was meant to replace, still finding a dormant old watched row and wrongly reporting nothing to do",
"A show-scoped pull now builds a season+episode -> sync_action map once from the show's own current detail and checks that first - the exact data the display itself groups from, so it can't disagree with what the page renders",
"Verified against live production logs: outbound dispatch to Plex/Emby/Jellyfin was already succeeding for every episode, confirming the sync engine and webhook echo protection were healthy - only the local re-import decision was wrong",
"remoteItemToMedia only fell back to the show's requested tmdb/tvdb ids when the source item provided none at all - but Plex/Emby/Jellyfin always tag an episode with its own tmdb/tvdb id (both providers assign episodes ids separate from their series), so that fallback never triggered",
"Every episode Import Watched Status inserted was tagged with its own episode-level identity instead of the show's, fragmenting it into its own show cluster and reproducing the exact display bug the previous two fixes were meant to resolve",
"An episode's tmdb_id/tvdb_id now always come from the show actually being pulled; imdb_id still comes from the item, since it is meaningfully episode-scoped and does not affect show grouping",
"Verified live: confirmed via production logs and direct API checks that this is what was actually happening, then added a regression test",
"queryShowDetail and rematchShowWatchRecords (Fix Match) both did an exact show_title_lower match first, only falling back to a broader canonical scan when that found zero rows - never when it found an incomplete subset",
"The same real show's episode rows can carry different exact show_title text over time (a media server's own title is rarely year-suffixed even when Plembfin's preferred display title is), so an exact match silently saw only one variant and missed the rest of the show's episodes - or resolved a different variant to an unrelated show sharing that exact text",
"This is what was actually blocking School Spirits Season 3 after every earlier fix: a Fix Match run only repaired the rows matching its anchor's exact title text, leaving Season 3's rows on their old identity untouched",
"Both functions now always scan by the same normalized canonical key (title with any trailing year stripped) that episodes are grouped by everywhere else, so a lookup or repair can no longer see only part of a show",
"Added a regression test with episodes split across a year-suffixed and non-year-suffixed title for the same show",
"Fixed a stuck 6/6 Available badge on shows opened via a tmdb/tvdb detail link: the Seerr background-refresh repaint only checked the plain /tvshow/:key slug, which those routes never set, so a completed correct fetch never re-rendered the page",
"Availability pills now show the actual resolution found on the connected server instead of a hardcoded 1080p; a TV season only claims a resolution when every available episode in it shares one, otherwise it drops the claim rather than guessing",
"Movies now get a real resolution reading too, pulled the same way TV episodes get theirs",
"Fixed the Edit Watch Date dialog under-reporting an episode's play count when its watch rows had differently formatted show titles (missing a trailing year on one row but not another), the same normalization bug already fixed for show lookups and Fix Match",
"Added a regression test covering the watch-date dialog fix",
"Live-verified the earlier show-title normalization fix on Trying S05E07 and found the dialog still under-counted: a real play whose sync_action was later flipped to unwatched (e.g. an explicit unwatch from a connected server) has a watched_at but no longer looks like a watched row, so it was silently excluded from the list even though the episode card's own N actual watches badge already counted it",
"siblingWatchRowsFor() now trusts a sibling row the same way the show page's own history grouping does, instead of requiring its current action to be watched",
"Added a regression test covering an episode with one watched play and one later-unwatched play",
"Fix TV show detail page to correctly merge episode-level watch history records",
"Scope show grouping union-find to show-level provider IDs so episode-level IDs do not partition series episodes",
"Update documentation for show grouping and client-side history merging",
"Prevent show modal DOM wipe on in-place re-renders and live updates",
"Ensure all episode rows belonging to a series are merged into the main show record",
"Use majority provider ID frequency across episode records to prevent stray row hijacking",
"Fix Remove Duplicate TV Watches scan in Settings to accurately identify episodes with multiple recorded watch dates",
"Normalize media type aliases like TV and show in duplicate watch scan and cleanup endpoints",
"Keep the oldest watch date and remove subsequent duplicate plays during library-wide cleanup",
"Marking an episode, season, show, or movie watched/unwatched no longer disables mark watched/unwatched buttons for unrelated episodes, seasons, shows, or movies while its sync to Plex/Emby/Jellyfin/Trakt is still running",
"A large season or show sync only blocks further actions on the same episodes it's syncing, not the whole app - you can mark a different show or movie watched right away instead of waiting",
"Show-wide controls (mark/resync the whole show, edit show date, edit images, fix match, merge) still wait for every in-flight action on that show to finish, since they would otherwise re-push episodes still mid-sync",
"Documented the new scoped syncing behavior in docs/media-detail.md"

"Clicking a season header to expand it now scrolls that season into view, instead of leaving the newly-revealed episode list to open off-screen below where you clicked",
"Collapsing a season still preserves the scroll position as before, so the page doesn't jump now that the content above has shrunk",
"The season-scroll fix from the previous commit used scrollIntoView's default alignment, which puts the season header flush with the very top of the viewport - directly underneath the sticky page topbar, hiding it",
"Now offsets the scroll target by the topbar's real rendered height so the expanded season lands visible just below it instead of overshooting and disappearing behind it",
"Clicking a season header to expand it, or loading a URL that names a season directly, now scrolls that season into view instead of leaving it open off-screen below the click or hidden at the very top of the page",
"Fixed the actual scroll target: this app's shell keeps window/document fixed and scrolls .page-shell internally, so the first attempt (window.scrollTo) silently did nothing - now walks up to whichever ancestor actually has the overflow",
"Reserves space for the sticky topbar via scroll-margin-top so the season header lands visible just below it instead of hidden underneath",
"Replaced the browser's native (non-configurable, abrupt) smooth scroll with a hand-rolled eased animation",
"A season named in the URL scrolls into view once on that navigation, not on every later re-render of the same modal (e.g. toggling an episode watched)"

"message": "Fix - Stop same-event webhook echoes inflating play counts",
"author": "Lasikiewicz",
"details": [
"Suppress background dashboard and watch history reloads while any sync operation (Force Sync, Cron Sync, Full Sync, or background dispatch) is actively running",
"Settle and refresh the dashboard cleanly once when the sync completes, stops, or fails",
"Wire active sync progress checks into live history refresh throttling to avoid flickering and card reloading during large syncs",
"Dashboard no longer refreshes repeatedly while a background sync is in progress after marking something watched in Plex",
"Fixed a bug where the sync reconciliation pass treated a missing local watch record as an explicit \"unwatched\" decision, causing it to push real \"mark unplayed\" calls to Plex/Emby/Jellyfin for items that were genuinely watched but had no matching Plembfin history row (e.g. after phantom-watch repair deleted the row)",
"The reconciliation pass now only treats an item as canonical-unwatched when Plembfin holds an explicit unwatched record; if there is no record at all, it leaves the media server's watched state alone instead of guessing",
"Phantom-watch burst detection no longer flags a normal multi-hour, multi-show viewing session as an import-echo flood: cross-show bursts must now fit within a 10-minute span, not just have no single gap over 3 minutes",
"Phantom-watch burst repair now skips any watch row that every other configured media server has already independently confirmed as synced, so a real, cross-verified watch is never deleted just because its timing happens to match a suspicious pattern",
"Applied the same no-history-is-not-unwatched fix to the modern scoped Force Sync planner, which previously could still push a false mark-unplayed to Plex/Emby/Jellyfin for an item with no Plembfin history row",
"Added updatedAfter/updatedBefore Force Sync scope filters, so a repair can be limited to items Plembfin touched in a specific time window rather than filtering by original watch date",
"The backlog sync-retry queue now only re-sends mark-played to the specific targets still missing confirmation instead of all three every time, clearing large backlogs faster with less redundant traffic",
"Fixed a playstate/watch_history drift: deleting a single history row (e.g. via the History page's delete button) now also cleans up the matching playstate row, so Plembfin's own watched indicator can no longer disagree with its own history after a record is removed",
"Fixed the outbound-mark echo detector comparing raw title strings, which meant a source that formats an episode as \"Show (2025) - S01E02\" and another that reports it as \"Show - S01E02\" (only one carrying the year suffix) never shared a cache key",
"Because of that mismatch, a media server's own echo of an outbound mark Plembfin just sent was not recognized as an echo, was treated as a brand-new watch, and created a duplicate watch_history row for an episode already recorded from another source",
"The echo-loop cache key now uses the same canonicalized show/movie title matching already trusted elsewhere in the app for this exact year-suffix mismatch, instead of the raw, unnormalized title string",
"Exported the existing canonicalShowTitleKey/showTitleFrom helpers from dataRepo.js for reuse in syncOrchestrator.js rather than duplicating the normalization logic",
"Fixed replaceTrackerSnapshot failing with a UNIQUE constraint error whenever the combined Trakt snapshot list contained more than one entry for the same media_key (e.g. a rewatch Trakt reports as a separate play), which crashed the whole snapshot replace and made the Trakt watched-state poll fail on every subsequent tick",
"The combined snapshot list is now deduplicated by media_key, keeping the most recently reported watched_at, before being written to tracker_item_state",
"Fixed the per-minute scheduled-sync tick timing out at 50 seconds during a large outstanding backlog, even though the underlying work (unwatched-state checks, recently-watched/resumable polling across all three platforms, and manual-dispatch retries) was still succeeding in the background",
"Promise.race does not cancel the underlying task on timeout, so the ti
