Splitting the loader: SSE job_update events now only refetch the
pipeline payload (queue/processing/done), not the review groups.
loadAll (pipeline + groups) is still used for first mount and user-
driven mutations (approve/skip) via onMutate.
Before: a running job flushed stdout → job_update SSE → 1s debounced
load() refetched /groups?offset=0&limit=25 → ReviewColumn's
useEffect([initialResponse]) reset groups to page 0, wiping any
pages the user had scrolled through. Lazy load appeared to block
because every second the column snapped back to the top.

Client changes paired with the earlier /groups endpoint:
- Types: drop review[]/reviewTotal from PipelineData, add ReviewGroup
and ReviewGroupsResponse.
- PipelinePage: parallel-fetch /pipeline and /groups?offset=0&limit=25.
- ReviewColumn: IntersectionObserver on a sentinel div fetches the
next page when it scrolls into view. No more "Showing first N of M"
banner — the column loads lazily until hasMore is false.
- SeriesCard: when a series has pending work in >1 season, render
collapsible season sub-groups each with an "Approve season" button
wired to POST /season/:key/:season/approve-all. Rename the series
button from "Approve all" to "Approve series" for clarity.

/api/review/pipeline no longer ships the review array — it now only
carries queue state + reviewItemsTotal. Review items live behind
/api/review/groups?offset=N&limit=25 which returns complete series
(every pending non-noop episode, bucketed by season) so the UI never
sees a split group.
Lifted enrichWithStreamsAndReasons + PipelineAudioStream to module
scope so both /pipeline (queued column) and /groups (review page)
can share the same enrichment.

GET /api/settings now returns jellyfin_api_key, radarr_api_key,
sonarr_api_key, mqtt_password as "***" when set (empty string when
unset). Real values only reach the client via an explicit
GET /api/settings/reveal?key=<key> call, wired to an eye icon on
each secret input in the Settings page.
Save endpoints treat an incoming "***" as a sentinel meaning "user
didn't touch this field, keep stored value", so saving without
revealing preserves the existing secret.
Addresses audit finding #3 (settings endpoint leaks secrets).

Queue previously processed a snapshot of pending jobs — anything approved
after Run-all clicked sat idle until the user clicked again. Now, when
the local queue drains, re-poll the DB once for newly-approved jobs
before exiting.
Also swap the looser local parseId (Number.parseInt accepted '42abc')
for the strict shared parseId in server/lib/validate.ts.

new POST /api/execute/verify-unverified that picks every plan with
status=done + verified=0 and runs handOffToJellyfin sequentially in
the background. each handoff fires the existing plan_update sse so
the done column promotes cards as jellyfin's verdict lands. exported
handOffToJellyfin so the route can reuse the same flow as a fresh job.
done column header shows a 'Verify N' action whenever there are
unverified done plans, alongside the existing 'Clear'. one click and
the user can backfill ✓✓ across every legacy done item without
re-transcoding.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
the ✓✓ write was landing in the db but never reaching the browser.
job_update fires once at job completion (card renders ✓, verified=0),
then handOffToJellyfin takes ~15s to refresh jellyfin + re-analyze +
UPDATE review_plans SET verified=1. no further sse, so the pipeline
page never re-polled and the card stayed at ✓ until the user
navigated away and back.
new plan_update event emitted at the end of handOffToJellyfin. the
pipeline page listens and triggers the same 1s-coalesced reload as
job_update, so the done column promotes ✓ → ✓✓ within a second of
jellyfin's verdict landing.

adds POST /api/review/:id/reopen that flips done or errored plans back
to pending, clears the lingering job row, resets verified=0, and keeps
the prior ffmpeg error summary in the plan's notes so the user has
context for redeciding.
done column cards grow a hover-only '← back to review' button next to
the status badge — works identically for both the ✓/✓✓ and the ✗ rows,
since the server accepts either. also hid the existing queue card's
back-to-review behind the same hover affordance so the two columns
behave consistently and the cards stay visually calm when not hovered.

Abraham Lincoln crashed with exit 234 because the file had 14 dvd_subtitle
streams: our extraction dict only keyed on the long form (dvd_subtitle)
while jellyfin stores the short form (dvdsub), so the lookup fell back
to .srt, ffmpeg picked the srt muxer, and srt can't encode image-based
subs. textbook silent dict miss.
replaced the extension dict with an EXTRACTABLE map that pairs codec →
{ext, codecArg} and explicitly enumerates every codec we can route to a
single-file sidecar. everything else (dvd_subtitle/dvdsub, dvb_subtitle/
dvbsub, unknown codecs) is now skipped at command-build time. the plan
picks up a note like '14 subtitle(s) dropped: dvdsub (eng, est, ind,
kor, jpn, lav, lit, may, chi, chi, tha, vie, rus, ukr) — not extractable
to sidecar' so the user sees exactly what didn't make it.
also added extractErrorSummary in execute.ts: when a job errors, scan
the last 60 stderr lines for fatal keywords (Error:, Conversion failed!,
Unsupported, Invalid argument, Permission denied, No space left, …),
dedupe, prepend the summary to the job's stored output. the review_plan
notes get the same summary — surfaces the real cause next to the plan
instead of burying it under ffmpeg's 200-line banner.

user reported ad astra got the double checkmark instantly after
transcode — correct, and correct to flag: the post-execute
verifyDesiredState ran ffprobe on the file we had just written, so it
tautologically matched the plan every time. not a second opinion.
replaced the flow with the semantics we actually wanted:
1. refreshItem now returns { refreshed: boolean } — true when jellyfin's
DateLastRefreshed actually advanced within the timeout, false when it
didn't. callers can tell 'jellyfin really re-probed' apart from
'we timed out waiting'.
2. handOffToJellyfin post-job: refresh → (only if refreshed=true) fetch
fresh streams → upsertJellyfinItem(source='webhook'). the rescan SQL
sets verified=1 exactly when the fresh analysis sees is_noop=1, so
✓✓ now means 'jellyfin independently re-probed the file we wrote
and agrees it matches the plan'. if jellyfin sees a drifted layout
the plan flips back to pending so the user notices instead of the
job silently rubber-stamping a bad output.
3. dropped the post-execute ffprobe block. the preflight-skipped branch
no longer self-awards verified=1 either; it now does the same hand-
off so jellyfin's re-probe drives the ✓✓ in that branch too.
refreshItem's other two callers (review /rescan, subtitles /rescan)
ignore the return value — their semantics haven't changed.

across review, processing, and done columns the movie/episode name is
now a link to /review/audio/\$id — matches the usual web pattern and
removes an extra click through the now-redundant Details button on
pipeline cards. jellyfin's deep link moves to a small ↗ affordance
next to the title so the 'open in jellyfin' path is still one click
away without hijacking the primary click.

each top-level card now shows a secondary button on hover ('↑ approve
above') that approves every card listed above this one in one
round-trip. uses a new POST /api/review/approve-batch { itemIds } that
ignores non-pending items so stale client state can't 409. series cards
get the same affordance scoped via a named tailwind group so it
doesn't collide with the inner episode cards' own hover state.
fix the horizontal-scroll glitch: long unbreakable audio titles (e.g.
the raw release filename) now line-wrap inside the card via
[overflow-wrap:anywhere] + min-w-0 on the span. previously
break-words was a no-op since there were no whitespace break points
in the release string.

worked through AUDIT.md. triage:
- finding 2 (subtitle rescan wipes decisions): confirmed. /:id/rescan now
snapshots custom_titles and calls reanalyze() after the stream delete/
insert, mirroring the review rescan flow. exported reanalyze + titleKey
from review.ts so both routes share the logic.
- finding 3 (scan limit accepts NaN/negatives): confirmed. extracted
parseScanLimit into a pure helper, added unit tests covering NaN,
negatives, floats, infinity, numeric strings. invalid input 400s and
releases the scan_running lock.
- finding 4 (parseId lenient): confirmed. tightened the regex to /^\d+$/
so "42abc", "abc42", "+42", "42.0" all return null. rewrote the test
that codified the old lossy behaviour.
- finding 5 (setup_complete set before jellyfin test passes): confirmed.
the /jellyfin endpoint still persists url+key unconditionally, but now
only flips setup_complete=1 on a successful connection test.
- finding 6 (swallowed errors): partial. the mqtt restart and version-
fetch swallows are intentional best-effort with downstream surfaces
(getMqttStatus, UI fallback). only the scan.ts db-update swallow was
a real visibility gap — logs via logError now.
- finding 1 (auth): left as-is. redacting secrets on GET without auth
on POST is security theater; real fix is an auth layer, which is a
design decision not a bugfix. audit removed from the tree.
- lint fail on ffmpeg.test.ts: formatted.

monitoring the mqtt broker revealed two bugs and one design dead-end:
1. the jellyfin-plugin-webhook publishes pascalcase fields
(NotificationType, ItemId, ItemType) and we were reading camelcase
(event, itemId, itemType). every real payload was rejected by the
first guard — the mqtt path never ingested anything.
2. the plugin has no ItemUpdated / Library.* notifications. file
rewrites on existing items produce zero broker traffic (observed:
transcode + manual refresh metadata + 'recently added' appearance
→ no mqtt messages). ✓✓ via webhook is structurally impossible.
fix the webhook path so brand-new library items actually get ingested,
and narrow ACCEPTED_EVENTS to just 'ItemAdded' (the only library-side
event the plugin emits).
move the ✓✓ signal from webhook-corroboration to post-execute ffprobe
via the existing verifyDesiredState helper: after ffmpeg returns 0 we
probe the output file ourselves and flip verified=1 on match. the
preflight-skipped path sets verified=1 too. renamed the db column
webhook_verified → verified (via idempotent RENAME COLUMN migration)
since the signal is no longer webhook-sourced, and updated the Done
column tooltip to reflect that ffprobe is doing the verification.

audio tracks now get a harmonized title on output (overriding any file
title like 'Audio Description' — review has already filtered out tracks
we don't want to keep). mono/stereo render numerically (1.0/2.0), matching
the .1-suffixed surround layouts. pipeline card rows become two-line so
long titles wrap instead of being clipped by the column.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
adds review_plans.webhook_verified, set to 1 whenever a fresh analysis
(scan or post-execute webhook) sees is_noop=1, cleared if a webhook
later flips the plan off-noop. resurrected the try/catch alter table
migration pattern in server/db/index.ts for the new column.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Queued jobs now render the full pipeline card with locked-in audio
stream checkboxes and transcode badges, so the rationale for queuing
stays visible. The primary action becomes "Back to review" which
unapproves the plan and moves the item back to the Review column.
two simplifications to how we pick and transcode the one-per-language
audio track, motivated by seeing inconsistent DTS → FLAC vs DTS →
EAC3 outputs in the wild:
transcode target:
- drop the FLAC path entirely. every incompatible source now targets
EAC3 regardless of container or lossless/lossy status
- FLAC for movie audio is bad value: ~2-3× the file size vs EAC3, no
Atmos spatial metadata (TrueHD Atmos → FLAC silently loses Atmos),
no AVR passthrough on Apple TV
- one target = no more container-conditional surprises
winner within a language group (betterAudio):
- new priority: highest channels → Apple-compatible → default → index
- old order put 'default' on top which forced a DTS-HD MA transcode
even when an AC3 track at equal channels was right next to it.
flipping means AC3 beats DTS-HD MA at the same channel count — pure
copy instead of a lossless-then-re-encode round trip
- channel count still dominates, so 7.1 TrueHD still beats 5.1 AC3
(and gets transcoded, which is the right call for real surround)
tests: new case for DTS-HD MA default + AC3 non-default at 5.1 → AC3
wins, job_type=copy. new case for 7.1 TrueHD beats 5.1 AC3 default.
every other existing test still holds.
The dropdown showed every language known to LANG_NAMES — not useful
because you can only keep streams that actually exist on the file. The
right tool is checkboxes, one per track, pre-checked per analyzer
decisions.
- /api/review/pipeline now returns audio_streams[] per review item
with id, language, codec, channels, title, is_default, and the
current keep/remove action
- PipelineCard renders one line per audio track: checkbox (bound to
PATCH /:id/stream/:streamId), language, codec·channels, default
badge, title, and '(Original Language)' when the stream's normalized
language matches the item's OG (which itself comes from
radarr/sonarr/jellyfin via the scan flow)
- ReviewColumn + SeriesCard swap onLanguageChange → onToggleStream
- new shared normalizeLanguageClient mirrors the server's normalize so
en/eng compare equal on the client
a release with 2× english (main + director's commentary, or a surround
track plus an audio-description track) was keeping both. the user only
wants one per language. rules, in priority order:
- always drop commentary / audio-description / visually-impaired /
karaoke / sign-language tracks (matched by title regex + the
is_hearing_impaired flag)
- within each kept-language group, pick one winner by:
1. default disposition (main track the muxer chose)
2. highest channel count
3. apple-compatible codec (skip a transcode pass)
4. lowest stream_index for stability
tests cover: commentary dropped even when it matches OG, AD flag
dropped, default beats non-default, higher channels beat default-less
candidates of equal type, Apple-compat tiebreak, per-language dedupe
runs independently, and single-stream files stay noop.
the existing handler already inserts fresh media_items when an Item
Added arrives for a jellyfin id we haven't seen (upsertJellyfinItem
runs insert-or-update). nothing code-wise to change — just make the
ui copy describe both directions of the channel: ingest new adds,
and confirm post-ffmpeg state.
the test button doesn't belong next to Save — running it is an
optional verification, not part of saving config. pulled it into a
dedicated 'End-to-end test' section below the plugin setup panel
with a numbered 4-step recipe: add Playback Start temporarily, hit
Start test, start playback in jellyfin, read the result, then remove
Playback Start. Notification Type in the setup panel now lists only
'Item Added' since that's all production needs.
two fixes based on actual behavior of the jellyfin webhook plugin:
- 'Webhook Url' setup value no longer re-serialized with mqtt://. show
the user's broker url verbatim so whatever protocol they use (ws://,
http://, etc.) survives the round trip
- dropped the server-side 'trigger a jellyfin rescan during the test'
machinery. a refresh that doesn't mutate metadata won't fire Item
Added, so relying on it produced false negatives. now we just wait
for any message on the topic; ui instructs the user to hit play on a
movie in jellyfin while the test runs — playback start is a
deterministic trigger, unlike library events
- setup panel now lists Notification Types as 'Item Added, Playback
Start'. playback start is for the test only; the production handler
still filters events down to item added / updated
- MqttSection now renders as a nested block inside the Jellyfin
ConnSection instead of its own card; ConnSection grew a children slot
- when the enable checkbox is off, broker/topic/credentials inputs and
the whole plugin setup panel are hidden; only the toggle + a small
save button remain
- 'Test Connection' became 'Test end-to-end': connects to the broker,
subscribes, picks a random scanned movie/episode, asks jellyfin to
refresh it, and waits for a matching webhook message. the UI walks
through all three steps (broker reachable → jellyfin rescan triggered
→ webhook received) with per-step success/failure so a broken
plugin config is obvious
- new mqtt_enabled config + toggle at top of the section; subscriber
only starts when the box is checked
- moved the whole MqttSection directly below the Jellyfin section so
all jellyfin-adjacent config lives together
- rewrote the plugin setup list to match the actual form order and
group it: 'Top of plugin page' (Server Url = jellyfin base URL),
'Generic destination', 'MQTT settings', 'Template'
- fields the user picks from a dropdown or toggles (Status,
Notification Type, Item Type, Use TLS, Use Credentials, QoS) now
render a 'select' hint instead of a broken Copy button
two issues surfaced on unraid over plain http:
copy buttons: navigator.clipboard is undefined in non-secure contexts.
fall back to a hidden textarea + document.execCommand('copy'), and
surface a 'select & ⌘C' hint if even that fails.
webhook url: the field is only used by http destinations but the plugin
form requires a value regardless. put the broker url there (mqtt://host:
port) so validation passes and it's still obvious what it points at.
the plugin's MQTT destination form uses different field names and
a different shape than what we'd documented:
- single 'Broker URL' → split 'MQTT Server' + 'MQTT Port' (+ 'Use TLS')
- 'Events' → 'Notification Type', and 'Item Updated' doesn't exist;
jellyfin reports every file change as 'Item Added'
- plugin requires Webhook Name, Status, Use Credentials, Quality of
Service fields that weren't in the panel
derive server/port/TLS from the saved mqtt_url so the copy buttons
give back the exact values the plugin expects. handler still accepts
ItemUpdated as a safety net in case the plugin adds it later.
after ffmpeg finishes we used to block the queue on a jellyfin refresh
+ re-analyze round-trip. now we just kick jellyfin and return. a new
mqtt subscriber listens for library events from jellyfin's webhook
plugin and re-runs upsertJellyfinItem — flipping plans back to pending
when the on-disk streams still don't match, otherwise confirming done.
- execute.ts: hand-off is fire-and-forget; no more sync re-analyze
- rescan.ts: upsertJellyfinItem takes source: 'scan' | 'webhook'.
webhook-sourced rescans can reopen terminal 'done' plans when
is_noop flips back to 0; scan-sourced rescans still treat done as
terminal (keeps the dup-job fix from a06ab34 intact).
- mqtt.ts: long-lived client, auto-reconnect, status feed for UI badge
- webhook.ts: pure processWebhookEvent(db, deps) handler + 5s dedupe
map to kill jellyfin's burst re-fires during library scans
- settings: /api/settings/mqtt{,/status,/test} + /api/settings/
jellyfin/webhook-plugin (checks if the plugin is installed)
- ui: new Settings section with broker form, test button, copy-paste
setup panel for the Jellyfin plugin template. MQTT status badge on
the scan page.
one-click for the common case: anything whose language came from
radarr/sonarr (confidence='high') is trusted enough to skip manual
review. low-confidence items stay pending.
- POST /api/review/auto-approve filters on rp.confidence='high' and
enqueues audio jobs through the same dedup-guarded helper
- ColumnShell now takes actions[] instead of a single action, so the
Review header can show Auto Review + Skip all side by side
root cause: all five job-insert sites in review.ts blindly inserted a
'pending' row, so a double-click on approve (or an overlap between
/approve-all and individual /approve) wrote N jobs for the same item.
job 1 stripped subtitles + reordered audio; jobs 2..N then ran the
same stale stream-index command against the already-processed file
and ffmpeg bailed with 'Stream map matches no streams'.
fix: funnel every insert through enqueueAudioJob(), which only writes
when no pending job already exists for that item. covers approve,
retry, approve-all, season approve-all, series approve-all.
root cause of duplicate pipeline entries: rescan.ts flipped done plans
back to pending whenever a post-job jellyfin refresh returned stale
metadata, putting the item back in review and letting a second jobs row
pile up in done. done is now sticky across rescans (error still
re-opens for retries).
second line of defense: before spawning ffmpeg, ffprobe the file and
compare audio count/language/codec order + embedded subtitle count
against the plan. if it already matches, mark the job done with the
reason in jobs.output and skip the spawn. prevents corrupting a
post-processed file with a stale stream-index command.
