Titel: CD/DVD/Film-Verwaltungsprogramme & Tools
Beitrag von: SiLæncer am 03 Juni, 2009, 05:45
MyMDb ist ein kostenloses Programm zur Verwaltung der eigenen Filmsammlung. Da das Tool direkten Zugang zu bekannten Online-Filmdatenbanken wie OFDb und IMDb bietet, lassen sich sämtliche Filminformationen einfach und schnell vervollständigen.

Die Filmübersicht lässt sich nach den verschiedensten Kriterien sortieren, so zum Beispiel nach der Altersfreigabe, dem Kaufpreis, dem Genre oder dem Produktionsland. Auch die bei den Online-Filmdatenbanken gespeicherten Bewertungen zu einem Film werden direkt im Programm angezeigt. Eine Suchfunktion hilft, die gewünschten Inhalte zu finden.

(http://screenshots.winfuture.de/MyMDb-1231135699.jpg)

Version 3.5 führt eine Vielzahl neuer Funktionen ein. Backups werden jetzt auf Wunsch automatisch erstellt. Verbesserungen bei der Eingabe der Filmauszeichnungen, eine Schnellsuche, ein PDF-Export und ein Eingabefeld für die Produktionsfirma sind nur einige der Neuerungen. Eine Liste aller behobenen Fehler gibt es auf der Herstellerseite (http://www.my-movie-database.de/).

Changelog:

    * Schnittstelle der OFDb erweitert - Ohne Angabe der EAN wird der altbekannte Datensatz zurückgegeben nun wird aber zusätzlich die FSK und die Laufzeit mitgeliefert. Mit Angabe der EAN wird nun zusätzlich die FSK, die Laufzeit, das Medium, das Tonformat und die Untertitel mitgeliefert

    * Mittels konfigurierbarem Pfad, ist der Zugriff auf das Programm nun durch mehrere vernetzte Rechner möglich

(http://i1-win.softpedia-static.com/screenshots/Videophile-II_11.png)

VideoPhile II was created for the purpose of managing and organising your multimedia files. Its powerful feature-set lends itself as an ideal solution for cataloguing large collections of media content.

Specifically, it is aimed at collections that traverse multile storage devices and where it is otherwise inherently difficult to locate a particular file in a collection. Due to its easy-to-use interface, you will be able to easily find any item in your collection and play it.

Here are some key features of "Videophile II":

· Support for user's default Media Player
· Auto-creation of Library, including thumbnail generation
· Support for advanced Tagging, using hierarchies, links and synonyms
· Ability to perform complex, compound searches in order to identify and locate files
· Ability to create and playback ‘highlight’ segments from your files
· Facilitates basic editing of files (through external applications, where installed)
· Caters for collections that traverse many, offline storage devices
· Ability to create and organise dynamic playlists
· Support for a Bluetooth HID profile in order to use the application more conveniently when in TV-Out mode.
· Ability to generate ‘Poster’ images of files (commonly used as previews by file uploaders)
· Facilitates identification of duplicate files Videophile II is a Direct Show-based application and, hence, it can play-back any media type for which your system has the necessary filters installed.

Freeware

Changes in Videophile 1.6.5:

- [Functional] Added pop-out mode for File Inspector's mini-player

    User Interface: Fixed the play button.

    User Interface: Play button was never disabled for TV Series.
    User Interface: Swapped movies were not correctly shown in the list.

    Search: unknown directors were included in the search results when searching for a specific director.
    User Interface: Made displaying number of votes optional. Number of votes was requested quite often but apparently also a lot of users did not like it.
    Browse HDD: popups with "No matches found" replaced by a logging message.
    User Interface: "Clear All Fields" did not clear all data and the "Update IMDB" button was not reset to "Search IMDB".
    User Interface: The mouse scroll wheel did move the selection in the bookshelf. It is more logical (and common Windows behaviour) to scroll a row and leave the selection.
    User Interface: Copy-Paste did not work correctly between Edit screens of different movies.
    User Interface: Added IMDB button in IMDB multiple results dialog to check IMDB for the selected title(s).

Latest Changes

- HTML Export: Added #OWN# and #OWN_TRANSLATION# tags.
- IMDB Import: Improved Studio / Network selection.
- This is how it works for now:
For movies EMDB uses the first entry of the Production Companies section of the Company Credits page (just follow the 'See more' link of the Company Credits section of the movie main page). E.g. for Avatar this will be 'Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation' (shortened to '20th Century Fox').
For TV Series EMDB selects the (USA) (TV) section of the Distributors section of the same page. For non-USA TV Series the (USA) is substituted with the country of origin. If the title is postfixed with a abreviation the abreviation is used. E.g. for Breaking Bad 'AMC' is selected as Network.
- This algoritm seems to work pretty good for both US and international movies and TV Series.
- User Interface: Improved updating of the Bookshelf after multiple edits / additions.

- Fixed an issue with the -userdir: parameter; relatives paths could not be used.
  The setting would always revert back to the installation dir which is not allowed to
  be used.
- Module Exporter error for exporting items from related modules.
- Module Exporter exports all items assigned to containers. This is faulty since the main
  items are already exported. Container items should not be treated as normal children.
- XSD fix for the Item Export (it was not fully correct).
- Java 7 denies creating backups in the root folder of any drive. I have added a
  message, preventing the root folder to be selected. Hopefully I find a real fix for this.
  The issue is with TrueZip. They have a newer version but that would force all users to
  start using Java 7, while I still want to support Java 6 as well.

[Changed]
- Added a restart message after the module has been imported successfully.
- When the system is upgraded the system will now also check whether there are new
  reports and/or resource (language) files available in the installation folder. If so,
  Data Crow will ask if it is okay to copy the files over from the installation folder
  to the user folder.
- Loan Administration would open very slowly in case you have many loans outstanding.
  Items are now loaded in a separate process and the progress is shown in the
  progress bar.
- Same as above, but then also for the lend items tab of the contact person.
- Settings are now stored per client. On startup a Unique ID for your system is generated
  and stored in the datacrow.properties file. The existing system settings are used as
  a template for these new settings files. This allows multiple client to work in the
  same Data Crow user folder while not being effected by the settings done by other users.
  The module settings are still shared though.
- For Windows systems the default font has been changed to "Arial Unicode MS" for
  foreign character support. This only applies to new installations.
- The Expert Form has been replaced by the Database Editor tool. This one now only has
  the SQL queries panel.
- The log form has been expanded to include system information (moved from the expert
  form).
- Removed some borders from the main screen.
- Changed some of the default settings, for new users, mostly for colors and the

NeatMP3 vereinheitlicht die Tag-Zusatzinformationen in digitalen Musiksammlungen. Musikfreunde bearbeiten mit der Freeware recht unkompliziert die so genannten ID3-Tags in MP3-Dateien sowie weiteren Audioformaten wie OGG, FLAC, WAV, MPC, AIFF, ASF und MP4.

NeatMP3 ergänzt fehlende ID3-Tags und sorgt dafür, dass alle Dateinamen nach dem gleichen Schema angepasst werden. Die hierfür nötigen Infos holt sich die Freeware aus den Tags.

Die Bedienung von NeatMP3 ist einfach. Zunächst fügt der Anwender einzelne Songs oder gleich alle Musikordner über den Add-Button zur Liste hinzu. Den "Output Folder", also den Ordner in dem die geänderten Dateien landen sollen, kann man nach Belieben festlegen. Mit einem Klick auf Start sorgt NeatMP3 dafür, dass die Songs wie gewünscht neu benannt werden.

So werden mit NeatMP3 beispielsweise alle Titel entsprechend der Vorgabe "Interpret - Titel - Albumtitel - Jahr.mp3" umbenannt, was der eigenen Musiksammlung sogleich die passende Struktur gibt. Fehlende ID3-Tags kann der Anwender vorher manuell editieren. Durch den Zugriff auf Online-Datenbanken lädt NeatMP3 viele Informationen auch automatisch.

Wer sich über uneinheitlich benannte MP3-Dateien ärgert und seine überquellende Musiksammlung aufräumen möchte, sollte zu NeatMP3 greifen. Dank des integrierten Audioplayers kann der Musikfreund die Songs vor dem Umbenennen auch kurz anspielen.

(http://download-codeplex.sec.s-msft.com/Download?ProjectName=mediacompanion&DownloadId=703861)
It’s almost impossible to remember all the movies and TV shows that you have seen so far and to recall the actors and directors’ names. This is why Media Companion comes in handy for all users who want to obtain all the necessary details about their favorite films.

The user interface is clean and you should be able to work with this program pretty quickly. The app is capable of gathering information from the Internet by accessing the IMDB database and to display various details about films such as outline, plot, stars, genre, actor, certification, runtime, director and others too. Adding a film to the main window is particularly simple as the app includes the “drag and drop” support. You can add multiple movies to the list, sort them by using the dedicated filters such as movie year, rating, alphabetical display, runtime, date added and many others.

The app works fast when it comes to downloading posters and movie trailers from IMDB and film backdrops from TMDb. Of course, all the data imported by the app can be easily edited. The file logs can be exported to a HTML list with customizable templates. Not only does it render accurate information for films, but it also provides useful information about TV shows. It automatically downloads data about episodes, actor images, posters and episode screenshots. Individual seasons can be handled separately as you can rename them by using set or custom parameters. The program also displays the missing episodes from your collection.

To sum up, Media Companion is a reliable tool that can gather all the necessary information about your favorite films from the Internet quickly and efficiently.

  possible) - 4.9 seconds on an almost empty database in 3.12 against 6.0 seconds on
  the same database with version 3.11.1.

  rewritten names).

Titel: Music Collection 1.8.4.1
Beitrag von: SiLæncer am 14 August, 2013, 05:40
(http://www.gsoft4u.com/images/image.png)
Music Collection is a software application which comprises tools for helping you manage your music collection in a database. It addresses advanced users as well as less experienced ones.

The interface of the program is made from a standard window with a well-defined layout, where you can create a new database by specifying the output directory and filename. Music Collection supports only Microsoft Access files (MDB format).

Adding a new album to the list implies filling in some information regarding the album data (e.g. title, media number, bands, extra features, web link), medium data (e.g. performer, composer, credit, state, notes, location), tracks, lyrics and the album cover.

You can insert as many records as you want into the database, or sort them by various criteria (e.g. artist, genre, format, label), toggle between album and track viewing mode, or view albums with images.

It is also possible to edit album properties or remove albums from the database, export an album to the HTML format, add an artist's biography, backup and restore data, manage loans and collection covers, search for an album or track, as well as view statistics and generate reports.

Music Collection requires a low-to-moderate quantity of CPU and system memory, has a good response time and includes user documentation. No error notifications have been shown in our tests and the app did not hang or crash. Thanks to its intuitive layout yet comprehensive options, Music Collection should satisfy the entire audience. There's also a portable edition available.

SortTV is a Perl-based application that automatically sorts TV show episodes into an organized directory structure.

This provides the magic required to have your home theatre PC (HTPC) keep itself sorted out. You can combine this script with an automatic episode downloader (there are openly licensed shows available), and this script can sort all of your new episodes, renaming them appropriately if you like.

Then, if you use xbmc as a front-end, it can tell xbmc to check for the new episodes and display a message to anyone viewing, that new episodes are available. All you will have to do is sit back and enjoy.

Here are some key features of "SortTV":

· Automatically sorts TV show episodes into an organized directory structure
· Optional integration with XBMC (notification and library update)
· Can optionally move non-episodes into a separate directory
· Options for renaming episodes, including format and fetching episode names
· Download show and episode images
· Recursive renaming of files in a directory
· Whitelists and blacklists for sorting
· Sort by Move, Copy, or Symlink
· Extract compressed archives

NeatMP3 vereinheitlicht die Tag-Zusatzinformationen in digitalen Musiksammlungen. Musikfreunde bearbeiten mit der Freeware recht unkompliziert die so genannten ID3-Tags in MP3-Dateien sowie weiteren Audioformaten wie OGG, FLAC, WAV, MPC, AIFF, ASF und MP4.

NeatMP3 ergänzt fehlende ID3-Tags und sorgt dafür, dass alle Dateinamen nach dem gleichen Schema angepasst werden. Die hierfür nötigen Infos holt sich die Freeware aus den Tags.

Die Bedienung von NeatMP3 ist einfach. Zunächst fügt der Anwender einzelne Songs oder gleich alle Musikordner über den Add-Button zur Liste hinzu. Den "Output Folder", also den Ordner in dem die geänderten Dateien landen sollen, kann man nach Belieben festlegen. Mit einem Klick auf Start sorgt NeatMP3 dafür, dass die Songs wie gewünscht neu benannt werden.

So werden mit NeatMP3 beispielsweise alle Titel entsprechend der Vorgabe "Interpret - Titel - Albumtitel - Jahr.mp3" umbenannt, was der eigenen Musiksammlung sogleich die passende Struktur gibt. Fehlende ID3-Tags kann der Anwender vorher manuell editieren. Durch den Zugriff auf Online-Datenbanken lädt NeatMP3 viele Informationen auch automatisch.

Wer sich über uneinheitlich benannte MP3-Dateien ärgert und seine überquellende Musiksammlung aufräumen möchte, sollte zu NeatMP3 greifen. Dank des integrierten Audioplayers kann der Musikfreund die Songs vor dem Umbenennen auch kurz anspielen.

· A Highlighting rule can now be assigned an icon instead of a colour. Edit/ Preferences/ Tags(2)/ highlighting. The icon will be displayed in the main panel in the "Highlight" field when a file meetings the criteria entered
· The search functions can now be set to search the entire library. Set via the Search icon in the text search box. When set to "Entire Library", the text search will search Music, Audiobooks and Inbox for matching files. The matches will be displayed in a new "Search Results" node and display an icon on the left margin showing which node in the library the file is located. When set the "Local Node Only" the text search results show in-place as now.
· the search scope is set and saved separately for each tab you have open
· A hotkey: "General: Toggle Search Entire Library" switches the search scope
· The custom search function, and middle mouse click on a field now always show the results in the "Search Results" node rather than in-place as before. The scope of those two searches takes account of the search Entire Library setting
· This will possibly be the last v2.2 beta update (bug fixes aside) and development will continue from v2.3 (or 3.0) as it fixes a number of important bugs from v2.1 and i think it justifies doing the release sooner rather than later

NeatMP3 vereinheitlicht die Tag-Zusatzinformationen in digitalen Musiksammlungen. Musikfreunde bearbeiten mit der Freeware recht unkompliziert die so genannten ID3-Tags in MP3-Dateien sowie weiteren Audioformaten wie OGG, FLAC, WAV, MPC, AIFF, ASF und MP4.

NeatMP3 ergänzt fehlende ID3-Tags und sorgt dafür, dass alle Dateinamen nach dem gleichen Schema angepasst werden. Die hierfür nötigen Infos holt sich die Freeware aus den Tags.

Die Bedienung von NeatMP3 ist einfach. Zunächst fügt der Anwender einzelne Songs oder gleich alle Musikordner über den Add-Button zur Liste hinzu. Den "Output Folder", also den Ordner in dem die geänderten Dateien landen sollen, kann man nach Belieben festlegen. Mit einem Klick auf Start sorgt NeatMP3 dafür, dass die Songs wie gewünscht neu benannt werden.

So werden mit NeatMP3 beispielsweise alle Titel entsprechend der Vorgabe "Interpret - Titel - Albumtitel - Jahr.mp3" umbenannt, was der eigenen Musiksammlung sogleich die passende Struktur gibt. Fehlende ID3-Tags kann der Anwender vorher manuell editieren. Durch den Zugriff auf Online-Datenbanken lädt NeatMP3 viele Informationen auch automatisch.

Wer sich über uneinheitlich benannte MP3-Dateien ärgert und seine überquellende Musiksammlung aufräumen möchte, sollte zu NeatMP3 greifen. Dank des integrierten Audioplayers kann der Musikfreund die Songs vor dem Umbenennen auch kurz anspielen.

NeatMP3 vereinheitlicht die Tag-Zusatzinformationen in digitalen Musiksammlungen. Musikfreunde bearbeiten mit der Freeware recht unkompliziert die so genannten ID3-Tags in MP3-Dateien sowie weiteren Audioformaten wie OGG, FLAC, WAV, MPC, AIFF, ASF und MP4.

NeatMP3 ergänzt fehlende ID3-Tags und sorgt dafür, dass alle Dateinamen nach dem gleichen Schema angepasst werden. Die hierfür nötigen Infos holt sich die Freeware aus den Tags.

Die Bedienung von NeatMP3 ist einfach. Zunächst fügt der Anwender einzelne Songs oder gleich alle Musikordner über den Add-Button zur Liste hinzu. Den "Output Folder", also den Ordner in dem die geänderten Dateien landen sollen, kann man nach Belieben festlegen. Mit einem Klick auf Start sorgt NeatMP3 dafür, dass die Songs wie gewünscht neu benannt werden.

So werden mit NeatMP3 beispielsweise alle Titel entsprechend der Vorgabe "Interpret - Titel - Albumtitel - Jahr.mp3" umbenannt, was der eigenen Musiksammlung sogleich die passende Struktur gibt. Fehlende ID3-Tags kann der Anwender vorher manuell editieren. Durch den Zugriff auf Online-Datenbanken lädt NeatMP3 viele Informationen auch automatisch.

Wer sich über uneinheitlich benannte MP3-Dateien ärgert und seine überquellende Musiksammlung aufräumen möchte, sollte zu NeatMP3 greifen. Dank des integrierten Audioplayers kann der Musikfreund die Songs vor dem Umbenennen auch kurz anspielen.

Latest Changes

VLC Upgrade:
Upgraded internal player to use VLC 2.0.0. I did most of the testing with IE9 and the VLC activeX plug-in. Firefox and Chrome will also work but I found that the mozilla plug-in is not as robust and will crash often.
Internal VLC Player
The internal VLC player has been totally rewritten for use with VLC 2.x and supports a new simplified look. It provides easier selection and persisting of audio tracks, subtitle tracks, crop values, and aspect ratios for movies and tv episodes.
Once in the player page, you may resize the browser window to reduce or enlarge the video.
Remote Controller:
The remote controller also incorporates the new simplified player look.
Performance:
Combined separate javascript and CSS files to decrease page load time.
Update File Locations Utility
Fix issue with updating paths of multi-part movies. A bug existed that only updated and kept the last file.
Custom Lists:
Enable filtering of movie URL attributes (e.g. "Rotten Tomatoes URL", "TVDb URL", etc...)
New random sort options. Instead of having the same movies appear in the same position all the time you now have the option to change the sort order each time the page is refreshed.
Scrappers:
COMMON SENSE - Enhance Common sense scrapper to work with new site changes.
IMDB - Fix episode import that broke when site was enhanced.
Other:
Rework internal messaging code to prevents asynchronous commands from blocking especially in IE9. The remote controller and maintenance utilities were areas mainly affected by this change.
Many minor bug fixes were also completed in this release.

NeatMP3 vereinheitlicht die Tag-Zusatzinformationen in digitalen Musiksammlungen. Musikfreunde bearbeiten mit der Freeware recht unkompliziert die so genannten ID3-Tags in MP3-Dateien sowie weiteren Audioformaten wie OGG, FLAC, WAV, MPC, AIFF, ASF und MP4.

NeatMP3 ergänzt fehlende ID3-Tags und sorgt dafür, dass alle Dateinamen nach dem gleichen Schema angepasst werden. Die hierfür nötigen Infos holt sich die Freeware aus den Tags.

Die Bedienung von NeatMP3 ist einfach. Zunächst fügt der Anwender einzelne Songs oder gleich alle Musikordner über den Add-Button zur Liste hinzu. Den "Output Folder", also den Ordner in dem die geänderten Dateien landen sollen, kann man nach Belieben festlegen. Mit einem Klick auf Start sorgt NeatMP3 dafür, dass die Songs wie gewünscht neu benannt werden.

So werden mit NeatMP3 beispielsweise alle Titel entsprechend der Vorgabe "Interpret - Titel - Albumtitel - Jahr.mp3" umbenannt, was der eigenen Musiksammlung sogleich die passende Struktur gibt. Fehlende ID3-Tags kann der Anwender vorher manuell editieren. Durch den Zugriff auf Online-Datenbanken lädt NeatMP3 viele Informationen auch automatisch.

Wer sich über uneinheitlich benannte MP3-Dateien ärgert und seine überquellende Musiksammlung aufräumen möchte, sollte zu NeatMP3 greifen. Dank des integrierten Audioplayers kann der Musikfreund die Songs vor dem Umbenennen auch kurz anspielen.

Changelog

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Data Crow version 4.0                                              Released on 2014-07-23
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a new major release. DO NOT install this version in the same location as
the old version as this will cause the program to fail to start.

NOTE 1 I have found that in old installations it is possible that both books.jar and a
       book.jar file exists within the modules folder. Remove the books.jar file as the
       book.jar file is the actual file used for saving module wizard changes.
       
NOTE 2 All modifications made to the Music Album and the Audio CD modules will be
       undone by the upgrade. There was no other way to get the Music Album and
       Audio CD modules merged.
       
NOTE 3 The web version is scheduled for version 4.1 and is not part of the 4.0 version.

[New]
- Client-Server mode. Full stand alone application server is now available. See Client-
  Server notes for more details. This has been achieved through a complete change of the
  Data Crow architecture.

[Changed]
! The Audio CD module and the Music Album module have been merged together. It did no
  longer make sense to have them as separate modules. There is no loss of functionality.
- Italian translation has been updated. Big thanks to Marco Artioli!
- Added additional file support to the movie file import.
- Changed the tabs saving mechanism. Tabs are also no longer stored in the database but
  our now saved per client. This makes it possible for users to create their own form
  design.
- Code re-structuring; making the code and architecture future proof. This was a huge
  undertaking but will not be directly visible to you as a user apart from having
  new features released in the (near) future which would not have been possible otherwise.
- Upgraded Apache Tika to version 1.5
- Added a column selector to table views (right-click on the table header).
- The discogs.com music search has been implemented using the official API, making it more
  reliable and future proof.
- Added Record Label to the the Music Album Module.
- The Sourceforge.net online service has been rewritten to use the official API, making it
  more reliable and future proof.
- JTattoo (Look and Feel manager) has been upgraded to version 1.6.10.
- You can now place true type fonts (TTF files) in the fonts directory of the install
  folder. These will be loaded by Data Crow and can then be used. They will appear at
  the bottom of any of the font selection lists.
- PDF reports now can make use of Fonts installed (copied) to the fonts folder of the
  Data Crow installation folder.
- Additional settings can be done by the user by editing the "pdf_config.xml" file
  as located in the reports folder (of the user directory). Instructions:
  https://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/1.0/configuration.html
- Updated the Module Creation Guide (http://www.datacrow.net/#downloads)
- Updated the Create Report Guide (http://www.datacrow.net/#downloads)
- Created a Client-Server Guide (http://www.datacrow.net/#downloads)

[Fixed]
- One more small issue fixed when upgrading from an old version of Data Crow.
- Regex pattern for the file importer was applied after changes to the name were applied
  by Data Crow logic. This can cause the regex pattern to no longer match. The regex
  pattern will now always be applied first.
- Lent versus lend grammar mistakes.
- Avoiding null pointer exceptions in case fields no longer exists.
- Restart of the Delete Module Wizard started the Create Module Wizard
- Problems with the creation of modules due to invalid table names caused by special
  characters. Now the names are auto generated.
- UTF8 problems with the module.XML files has been resolved.
- Issue with user creation. Module permissions were not saved correctly on the user
  creation. It only worked after updating the user.
- Create multiple used the view type (table / card) based on the selected search view.
  Because of this the card view was used sometimes which is not editable.
- Backup process reported missing "dc.lck" and "dc.log" files.
- Opening the form to create a new user took a long time.
- Module wizard creation module allows Picture fields to be added to property modules
  while this is not supported. Option has now been removed.
- The Mobygames.com online search has been fixed.
- The Sourceforge.net online search has been fixed.
- Dictionary.txt was saved in plain text instead of in UTF8 format.
- Original label in the general field settings showed the new, custom, label after
  the user made the translation.
- The view and quick view were not updated after performing a loan action (return / lend).
- Mismatch between the contact person module name and the module jar file.
- A white space for decimal grouping symbol is reset to "." after a restart.
- Drive Manager window settings not applied correctly.

[Client-Server Notes]
A manual has been released: http://www.datacrow.net/#downloads

Highlights:
* Clients don't have access to restore and backup functionality, regardless of their
  access rights. These options are solely available when running Data Crow directly on
  the server. Future versions might have scheduled backup routines.
* Server can be started using the server command. It's a headless server, meaning it
  doesn't require a monitor / has not GUI.
* Clients are thick clients. Wait for the new web GUI release for thin client access.
  Note that Data Crow will always support the client-server mode as currently released.
  The code has been optimized for client-server access. Data is pulled in small batches.
  For example, when scrolling in the table and list view only does items
  are fully retrieved from the server which are currently visible. Clients connected to
  a server will however always be slower than standalone clients.
* User management is available directly and has remained unchanged from previous
  version. You can indicate on field level if the user has access to it and what he/she
  can do with the field content (read/update/delete).
* Icons are cached on each client. No synchronization on icon changes has yet been
  implemented. Nothing else is cached on the clients. After a restart of a client
  the icons are retrieved from the server.
* The clients retrieve the settings, modules and value enhancers from the server.
  Not all settings can be done on the client due to security restraints.
* Modules, system settings and value enhancers are downloaded from the server on startup,
  this way the server is in control for the modules and system wide settings.

This is a patch release for Data Crow 4.0. It fixes the reported upgrade errors and contains a performance fix. Please see the change log for the full list of changes and improvements.
Additionally I uploaded the latest versions of the manuals (see download section). Marco Artioli was so kind to deliver an Italian version of the Client-Server documentation (download).
Do not install this version on top of an old Data Crow 3 version (3.12.5 and earlier). Install it to a new location instead.

A small but important bug fix was required. The bug causes a startup error, introduced by the 4.0.2 version released yesterday. Fixed 2 additional upgrade issues which occurred for some users.

Fixed:

Error message; full control needed for the install directory. This message was intended for the server installation only. The client doesn't need this anymore with this version.
Upgrade error in case the old images folder contains sub-directories.
Fixed an error for the Audio CD and the Music Album merge.

Beitrag von: SiLæncer am 13 August, 2014, 05:25
Release Notes

[Changed]
- Improved Error Handling for recovery. When the database load fails due to inconsistencies Data Crow would in the past just show the user login page. Now, Data Crow will rename the database, show the correct error and close Data Crow. On a next start Data Crow is started with a clean new database. The user can now restore the last backup. The faulty database does still exists and can be send by email to analyze and fix if possible.
- Improved the handling of user folders; You can now switch between user folders without copying the data over from the existing folder. The option to copy the data has been made an option from the user folder selection dialog.
- Improved handling of old databases; it was always the idea for users to perform an restore of existing backup in the latest version. Most users however upgrade directly which is actually almost enforced by Data Crow. Data Crow will now warn the user in case the old database requires a different upgrade path, such as first upgrading to version 3.12.5. Data Crow will not allow the user to continue to avoid database corruption.
- Quick filter is now a search all field; it will search for text and numbers in all applicable and search enabled fields at once. On the quick filter bar I have now also placed an icon to quickly open the advanced filter dialog. With this change the quick filter bar is simpler to use whereas the advanced filter dialog can be used to create filters of a high complexity (and remember, these can be saved for re-use). Note; it is not possible to use regex expressions in the quick filter (not supported by the underlying HSQL database).
- Added Find & Replace to the Filter menu.
- Upgraded HSQLDB (http://hsqldb.org/) to the latest version (2.3.2).
- Added a "Create Support Package" menu item to the help menu. Creates a zip file
containing all files needed for identifying and resolving problems.

[Fixed]
- Find and Replace was not working correctly.
- Open Item from the right-click menu did not work.
- Fixed an issue in the Database Editor; first column was not shown in the query results.

Changelog

More bugs to be fixed. With the complete overhaul of Data Crow, which was the upgrade from version 3.0 to 4.0, a lot of small issues have crept in. With this release I have the latest reported issues fixed and closed out. Due to the maintenance of this version I have not done any development on the web version this week. Looking at the current schedule I am still on track though. This weekend however I will focus on the reports first.

[Fixed]
- Data Crow hangs in case there are unsaved changes in the table view on exiting.
- In rare cases the grouping pane showed zero items while x number of items are present.
- CSV and XML import issues have been fixed.
- Module naming inconsistencies which caused the alter module wizard to fail for various modules, such as the book and container module.
- Items with ID's created before 2006 were not shown anymore in the tree views when clicking on a node.
- Behind the scenes, the view was loaded twice on the initial startup.
- "Retrieve Music Albums" now adds the retrieved CD information to the overview.
- Required field check failure; items were not check upon required fields.

[Changed]
- Record label module; name is now required and checked for uniqueness. Note that custom Record Label settings will be reset to accommodate for this minor change.

Changelog

An new minor release fixing a number of problems in the software. I have decided against making any changes in the code, focusing solely on fixing issues and avoiding the introduction of new issues. I am starting to realise I do need a tester for this software...

[Fixed]
- A NullPointerException for the item import has been fixed.
- Potential NullPointerException in case a query fails.
- Logging panel was registered too late in the startup process; missing messages.
- A bug has been fixed where the module importer consumed too much memory. This occurred for larger module exports holding an x number of large images. As an added benefit it works now much faster.
- Server startup error; modules could not be loaded.
- Record label list is now sorted by name.
- Fixed an issue where the quick filter bar is shown underneath the toolbar. The quick filter is now placed directly on the toolbar itself. The setting [toggle quick filter] has now been removed.
- The Drive Manager functionality was broken.
- Resource Editor save issues.
- File Tree panel inconsistencies have been resolved.
- New Item Wizard - pictures not saved for newly saved items.
- Create Multiple Items lacked the option to save.

[Changed]
- The help (F1) has been updated to explain the Quick Search functionality.
- The German translation has been updated; thanks to Ralf Geiss!
- On startup after any upgrade you'll be asked whether you want to use the new translation files.
- File tree panel now shows folder icon for folders which are present on the file system.
- Splash screen was shown quite late in the startup process.

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

The reports of JasperReports can be saved as PDF, RTF and HTML. Additionally you can use the free Jaspersoft Studio Software to create reports, graphically. This brings a lot more power to the reporting capabilities of Data Crow. Data Crow generates the reports on the exported XML files.

[Changed]

Fixed an upgrade issue for the Audio CD and and Music Album merge. The error occurred in case the new tables already exists due to a faulty earlier upgrade or because the user installed version 4.0 on top of version 3.12.5. Now, Data Crow will delete empty tables required for the new Music Album module. If they contain records, the upgrade will fail.
The module wizard did not handle special characters correctly.
Tabs containing special characters were not stored and retrieved correctly.

epCheck lets you easily view and track TV series data, drawing data from TheTVDB.com.

Release Notes

Added a "Profiles" option that allows you to create multiple lists of series. For example, you could create a Watched list, a Cancelled list, an Ended list, etc. Check out the Options tab to create new profiles. The profiles feature is currently a BETA feature and needs some testing. As such, there is a good possibility that it might not work as designed and your epCheck data might be lost or otherwise munged. Make backups.
Added an "" entry to the Profiles dropdown to easily view all series from all profiles.
Currently selected profile is shown in the statusbar.
Added "Move to" and "Copy to" profile options when right-clicking a series.
Added the series air time (EST) and network to the both the series and weekly listviews.
Added status column to listviews.
Added icons to tab labels.
Added right-click search menu to the Search tab so you can now more easily find web information on the search results.
Option to allow ESC key to close epCheck.
Added Profile column to the Series list.
Changed "Load weekly view on startup" option to "Load weekly data on startup" to avoid confusion with the startup tab option.
Moved the "Show special episodes" option from the Options tab to a toolbar button.
Fixed some issues with the right-click web search menu.
Episode display format was not saved and applied properly.
Removing a profile wouldn't properly remove data folders for series that didn't exist on remaining profiles.
Fixed a nasty HTML encode/decode issue that could result in epCheck getting stuck in a race condition.

(http://www.freeware.de/images/screenshots/73801/neatmp3_medium_3.jpg)
NeatMP3 vereinheitlicht die Tag-Zusatzinformationen in digitalen Musiksammlungen. Musikfreunde bearbeiten mit der Freeware recht unkompliziert die so genannten ID3-Tags in MP3-Dateien sowie weiteren Audioformaten wie OGG, FLAC, WAV, MPC, AIFF, ASF und MP4.

NeatMP3 ergänzt fehlende ID3-Tags und sorgt dafür, dass alle Dateinamen nach dem gleichen Schema angepasst werden. Die hierfür nötigen Infos holt sich die Freeware aus den Tags.

Die Bedienung von NeatMP3 ist einfach. Zunächst fügt der Anwender einzelne Songs oder gleich alle Musikordner über den Add-Button zur Liste hinzu. Den "Output Folder", also den Ordner in dem die geänderten Dateien landen sollen, kann man nach Belieben festlegen. Mit einem Klick auf Start sorgt NeatMP3 dafür, dass die Songs wie gewünscht neu benannt werden.

So werden mit NeatMP3 beispielsweise alle Titel entsprechend der Vorgabe "Interpret - Titel - Albumtitel - Jahr.mp3" umbenannt, was der eigenen Musiksammlung sogleich die passende Struktur gibt. Fehlende ID3-Tags kann der Anwender vorher manuell editieren. Durch den Zugriff auf Online-Datenbanken lädt NeatMP3 viele Informationen auch automatisch.

Wer sich über uneinheitlich benannte MP3-Dateien ärgert und seine überquellende Musiksammlung aufräumen möchte, sollte zu NeatMP3 greifen. Dank des integrierten Audioplayers kann der Musikfreund die Songs vor dem Umbenennen auch kurz anspielen.

- New custom rename feature that includes the Track and Genre tags

Searching for items (Search..), Creating new item (File > Create New), Edit item (Right-Click > Edit), Navigation between items (for example, open a software title, then click on it's category, then see which other items have been assigned to this category, etc.), Picking fields for the overview and the item form (web). (Settings > ..) and the full security model has been implemented. This web server delivers the same basic functionality (with a tad more style) as the old web module and will be expanded upon with each and every normal (4.x) delivery (see the roadmap section).

GUI changes:

Change the way person's head shot is cropped. Prior to this release if a head shot was too tall it was crop from top and bottom. In this release the person image is only cropped from the bottom. To have the system regenerate person images (on demand), you must "Remove derived image files" and clear your browsers cache.
The close button for movie and person details has been moved to the right side.
Some icons have been updated.
Main grid layout has been enhanced to handle resizing person details. Prior to this relese the person details were closed when the browser windows was resized.
Increase color contrast of fonts on movie and person details.

Other Enhancements:

Since trailer downloads take a long time, there is now an option to defer trailer downloads by placing an item in the import queue that will download the trailer later. This occurs in two places. When importing a movie from the import queue, the trailers are now added as separate queue item so movies import faster. From the movie edit window, you have option to download trailer during import, defer trailer download, or not to download trailer. This will speed up the time to import new movies and update existing ones.
"Choose folder" dialog accessed from the settings window will now try and use the NETBIOS name which is the standard on Windows computer instead of the hostname.

Bug fixes:

Fix bug where drop menu sometimes refuses to close when clicking off the menu.
Fix minimum height of video player when the settings window is opened.
Prevent "About" windows from showing twice.
Sometimes updating a movie cover image or person head shot did not update background and font colors.
Return appropriate error when logging in as another user and no users exists.
Fix missing media info label for episode files.
Build 1917 had a bug where the importer configuration for movie and person images were not set correctly. If you installed 1917, the default configuration can be fixed by restoring default settings.

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

Movie File Merger (MFM) helps you with the selective combination of video collections, like home videos, movies, series, or documentaries. It can be used also for other types of collections, like music, or basically any files, but MFM is optimized for videos.

Movie File Merger is not a movie database program like Personal Video Database. It is designed so that the lists can be easily updated once out of date. MFM runs in Dropbox, which makes it easier to share lists with other people. MFM is portable, so that you can run it from anywhere, on any hard disk or memory stick. MFM works together with multiple other programs, like GOM, VLC, MediaInfo, or TeraCopy. All of them can be downloaded and used for free.

- Adds the new action bar, to make the operation simpler
- Just Scan It, to scan for collections on all connected hard disks

Changelog

HighDPI / Große Schriftarten / 4k Monitore
AudioExpert unterstützt ab dieser Version die Anpassung der Schriftgröße (DPI) besser - jetzt auch pro Monitor (ab Win 8.1).
Falls also jemand bereits in den Genuss eines Monitors jenseits der Full HD Auflösung kommt (mein Neid ist mit euch - ich habe leider noch keinen...) und dann feststellt, dass die eigene Optik an ihre Grenzen gerät, kann nun bedenkenlos die Schriftgröße in Windows erhöhen, ohne dass die Anzeige in AudioExpert die Grätsche macht. Auch wenn man in AudioExpert (Menü Extras > Einstellungen > Anzeigeoptionen) die Schriftgröße erhöht, werden die Texte nicht mehr verstümmelt. Sorry, dass mir das erst jetzt aufgefallen ist... (Danke an Simon und seine Geduld...)
Nur geprüfte Alben übernehmen
Beim Übernahmelauf können Sie angeben, dass nur die Musikstücke übernommen werden sollen, die als "geprüft" markiert wurden. Alle anderen bleiben im Vorschaumodus und werden nicht verarbeitet. (Danke an Karlheinz für die Unterstützung!!!)
BPM / Beats per Minute
Ab dieser Version wird auch das ID-Tag "BPM" unterstützt. Zum Aktualisieren der fehlenden Daten kann das Menü "Datei > Verschobene oder geänderte Titel finden" verwendet werden.
Ein Suchlauf "Suchen > BPM suchen" und die angepasste Schnellsuche runden das neue Feature ab,
Multiprozesser-Unerstützung beim Transcodieren
AudioExpert kann Systeme mit mehreren CPUs beim Transcodieren besser auslasten, sodass der Prozess beim gleichzeitigen Transcodieren mehrere Dateien deutlich beschleunigt wird.
Pitch & Tempo
Auf dem Reiter "Wiedergabe" kann beim Abspielen von Titeln über die Schieberegler Pitch und Tempo die Abspielgeschwindigkeit angepasst werden
Dialogüberschriften
In den Einstellungen kann der Überschriftsbereich in vielen Dialogen abgestellt werden. Wenn die Erläuterungen für Sie nicht (mehr) relevant sind, kann der Platz so besser genutzt werden.
Für ein temporäres Ausblenden kann man auch einen Doppelklick auf das Icon verwenden.
MusicBrainz-Abgleich > Fehlende Titel ergänzen
Der Suchlauf wurde etwas verbessert und findet nun auch Titel mit einer abweichenden Schreibweise (Siehe Menü "Extras > Einstellungen > Unscharfe Erkennung")
Compilations auflösen
Der Suchlauf wurde verbessert und behandelt jetzt das Anhängsel der CD-Nummer korrekt
Schreibgeschützte Dateien
AudioExpert stürzte u.U. ab, wenn im Zielverzeichnis bereits eine Schreibgeschützte Datei mit gleichem Namen wie die zu schreibende Datei existierte.
Der Schreibschutz wird jetzt korrekt erkannt. Bei aktivierter Option "Schreibschutz ignorieren" können solche Dateien nun auch (wieder) überschrieben werden.

Changelog

Neue Funktionen

    Dubletten: Bei gleicher Qualität ist die Priorität über Dateityp einstellbar (Menü "Extras > Einstellungen > Dubletten > Bewertung von Bitrate / Dateityp)
    Coversuche: CoverArtArchive.org wird unterstützt, wenn die MusicBrainz ID des Albums gesetzt ist
    Coversuche: Die Jpg-Qualität kann eingestellt werden
    MusicBrainz: Die API wurde aktualisiert, AudioExpert verwendet nun die aktuelle Version. Die alten Aufrufe lieferten oftmals keine Ergebnisse mehr.
    MusicBrainz: Das Medium des Albums (CD, Vinyl, etc.) wird mit angezeigt
    MusicBrainz Abgleich: Zusätzliche Interpreten werden mit übernommen
    MusicBrainz online suche: Auch hier werden die zusätzlichen Interpreten mit angezeigt
    MusicBrainz: Zusätzliche Optionen für die Erscheinungsländer in den Einstellungen: Über eine White- oder Blacklist kann die Treffermenge auf die wichtigsten Länder eingeschränkt werden (Menü "Extras > Einstellungen > Allgemein", Abschnitt "MusicBrainz"
    Dateilänge: Maximale Länge für den gesamten Dateinamen kann in den Einstellungen definiert werden. (Menü "Extras > Einstellungen > Dateinamen > Längenbegrenzungen)
    CD-Import: Man kann bei Bedarf einen manuellen Speicherort für die Titel festlegen. Das ist vor allen Dingen dann interessant, wenn man die Struktur manuell verwalten will.
    CD-Import: Zusätzliche Interpreten können direkt in der Spalte "Interpret(en)" mit angegeben werden. Hierzu kann man entweder als Trenner "feat." bzw. "featuring" oder ein Semikolon ";" verwenden.
    Export: Der Titelexport in XML oder XLS-Format enthält nun auch Schlagworte und Bibliotheken (Menü "Datei > Exportiere Titelliste in Datei")
    Dateitypen: Wavpack-Dateien mit der Endung ".wv" werden erkannt
    Wiedergabe: In den Einstellungen kann festgelegt werden, ob immer die gesamte Sammlung abgespielt werden soll oder nur die gerade sichtbare Auswahl von Titeln (Menü "Extras > Einstellungen > Wiedergabe" im unteren Abschnitt)
    Wiedergabe: Beim Abspielen kann Tempo + Pitch geändert werden, wenn in den Einstellungen (Menü "Extars > Einstellungen > Wiedergabe" im unteren Bereich) aktiviert. ACHTUNG: Diese Funktion ist noch im BETA Stadium
    - Bibliotheken Synchronisieren: Das Abbrechen beim Synchronisieren von Bibliotheken hat jetzt eine zwischengeschaltete Sicherheitsabfrage
    Übernahmelauf: Die einzubettende Bilder können zuvor in das Jpg Format konvertiert werden. Qualität und maximale Größe sind einstellbar.
    Playlisteneditor: Der Playlisteneditor unterstützt nun auch ein Undo (es kann nur die letzte Aktion rückgängig gemacht werden) sowie Copy&Paste
    Playlisteneditor: Der Format-String für die Anzeige im Playlisteditor kann konfiguriert werden. (Extras > Einstellungen > Optionen für Playlisten)
    Playlisteneditor: Beim Beenden kann AudioExpert fragen, ob die geänderte Playliste gespeichert werden soll (Extras > Einstellungen > Optionen für Playlisten)
    Playlisten: Die Funktion "Playliste Reparieren" erkennt jetzt, wenn sich nur der Dateityp geändert hat (z.B. von mp3 zu flac)

Bugfixes

    Beim Abspielen von mehreren Titeln funktionierte das automatische Weiterschalten auf den nächsten Titel nicht mehr
    MusicBrainz: Option "Nur offizielle Alben berücksichtigen" bei MusicBrainz-Abfragen funktioniert wieder
    Zusammenführen von Mehrfach-CDs: Hatten die CDs nicht nur eine Nummer, sondern auch eine Ergänzung (disc 1: classic), so wurden die Alben falsch zusammengeführt
    Die Generierung von temporären Dateien war nicht "thread-safe", was unter Umständen beim Transcodieren von vielen Dateien zu einem Fehler führen konnte.
    Die Coversuche bei Amazon funktioniert wieder
    "Abbrechen" bei CD-Import funktioniert wieder
    Listenansicht: Die Sortierung nach Dateigröße beachtet jetzt korrekt die Einheit

Diffractor verwaltet Foto-, Video- und Musiksammlungen schnell und bequem. Die Freeware eignet sich auch bestens für große Bestände. Der integrierte Medienplayer spielt Filme und Songs direkt ab.

Vor allem hat sich Diffractor auf die Verwaltung von Fotosammlungen spezialisiert. Bilder lassen sich mit Bildunterschriften und Tags versehen, in andere Formate umwandeln und Kontraste, Helligkeit oder Sättigung ganz nach Wunsch anpassen.

Besondere Stärken zeigt Diffractor bei den Sortieroptionen. Die verwalteten Medien können nach zuletzt bearbeiteten Dateien, Bewertungen und weiteren vordefinierten Kriterien geordnet werden. Mehrere
Ordneransichten und Katalogisierungsoptionen sorgen für eine optimale Orientierung in großen Bildbeständen. Die Freeware sortiert Fotos auf Wunsch automatisch unter anderem nach Kamera, Blende oder Aufnahmeort anzeigen, Filme nach Länge oder Größe und Songs nach Interpreten oder Genres.

Diffractor bietet eine ausgezeichnete Kombination aus Medienverwaltung und Bildbearbeitung. Die grundlegenden Funktionen zum Schärfen, Drehen und Beschneiden der Fotos sind ebenso enthalten wie spezielle Optimierungs-Werkzeuge. Unter anderem kann der Fotofreund störendes Bildrauschen schnell und einfach mit der Freeware beseitigen.

Changelog
MusicBee 3 is a redesign of the user interface and is heavily based on design concepts proposed by endeavour1934 in http://getmusicbee.com/forum/index.php?topic=14941.0

Upgrading from v2.5

When you use MB3 for the first time, a copy of your v2.5 settings is made. Although most settings will be carried across to version 3, your existing panel arrangements wont.
Fear not! Its really simple to change the layout in v3. Just click the Panel Layout button which is to the left of the search box.

Skins

Although your existing skin should work with MB3, some skins won't look great with the new GUI design. I recommend you check the Skins board for updates:
http://getmusicbee.com/forum/index.php?board=11.0
Some new ones for MB3 only have also been added

Plugins

Most plugins should work without modification when using MB3. Two exceptions are:
Last.fm Statistics - see: http://getmusicbee.com/forum/index.php?topic=7304.msg102077#msg102077
Last.fm Recommendations - see: http://getmusicbee.com/forum/index.php?topic=7484.msg102079#msg102079

Internal Web Browser

An embeded Web Browser is no longer supported in the MusicBee application itself. Web links now open in your default browser.
However, you can still view web pages within MusicBee using an updated version of the Web Browser plugin. It has been updated so you can view custom web-links that use the current playing song (wikipedia, youtube, etc)

Changelog

Neue Funktionen

    Discogs-Integration
    Analog dem MusicBrainz-Abgleich (Strg+M) gibt es nun auch den Discogs-Abgleich (Strg+D)
    Beim Suchlauf "Interpret/Album mit Onlinedatenbank abgleichen" kann man nun wählen, ob mit MusicBrainz oder Discogs abgeglichen werden soll.
    Der Coversuchlauf kann ebenfalls bei Discogs suchen.
    Ebenso der Suchlauf nach Genre oder Jahr.
    Zusätzlich gibt es zwei neuen Spalten "Interpret-ID (Discogs)" und "Album-ID (Discogs)" in der Listenansicht.
    In den Dialogen für Eigenschaften von Album oder Interpret gibt es zusätzlich zur last.fm-Suche auch einen Absprungbutton für Discogs.
    Equalizer
    Im unteren Bereich gibt es einen neuen Reiter "Equalizer". Dieser enthält einen konfigurierbaren 15-Band Equalizer.
    Man kann verschiedene Konfigurationen speichern und sehr schnell wieder aufrufen.
    Titel vorhören
    Bei mehr als einer Soundkarte kann AudioExpert einen anderen Titel parallel abspielen. Diesen Titel kann man dann "live" schalten oder in die Playliste einreihen.
    In den Einstellungen kann als "Doppelklick-Aktion" ebenfalls "Titel vorhören" eingestellt werden.
    Neue Option "Wiedergabe beim Sperren des Computers pausieren und beim Entsperren fortsetzen
    Der ewig lange Titel dieser Option (zu Finden auf dem Reiter "Wiedergabe > Überblenden & ReplayGain" ganz unten) sagt es eigentlich schon...
    Neue Formatstrings %Bitrate% und %CorrectedBitrate%
    Für den Format-String können diese beiden neuen Platzhalter verwendet werden, um die Bitrate bzw. die korrigierte Bitrate auch in den Dateinamen schreiben zu lassen.
    Das ist besonders spannend mit z.B. der Funktion $ifequals(%bitrate%, %correctedbitrate%, "", " - %correctedbitrate%"), die nur im Falle einer möglicherweise hochskalierten Datei die tatsächliche Bitrate an den Dateinamen anhängt.
    Neue Formatstrings %AlbumMBId%, %AlbumDGId%, %ArtistMBId% und %ArtistDGId%
    Über diese Formatstrings können die IDs für Interpret/Album aus MusicBrainz oder Discogs angesprochen werden.
    Über $IfEmpty(%AlbumMbID%, "[Kein MusicBrainz]", "[MusicBrainz OK]") kann man so z.B. den Dateinamen modifizieren
    Neue Formatstrings %Complete% (%komplett%) und %Reviewed% (%geprüft%)
    Liefert "vollständig", wenn das Album als "Vollständig" markiert wurde (andernfalls einen Leerstring) oder "OK", wenn das Album als "geprüft" markiert wurde (andernfalls ebenfalls einen Leerstring)
    Spalte "Jahr" in der Baumansicht
    Über das Menü "Ansicht > Optionen für Baumansicht" kann man die neue Spalte "Jahr" im Baum anzeigen. Dadurch wird das kleinste Jahr aus den zugeordneten Titeln in der Baumansicht angezeigt.
    Ebenfalls über die rechte-Maus-Taste auf der Kopfzeile der Baumansicht möglich.
    Fehlerprotokoll für den Suchlauf "Korrigierte Bitrate berechnen"
    Falls Titel nicht analysiert werden konnten, kann man durch das Protokoll evtl. die Ursache ermitteln.
    Ruhezustand nach langen Operationen
    Bei einigen Funktionen, die möglicherweise länger laufen, gibt es die neue Option, den PC im Anschluss in den Ruhezustand zu versetzen oder herunterzufahren.
    Diese Option wird nicht gespeichert und muss daher bei jedem Lauf explizit aktiviert werden.
    Wiedergabe von wavpack und speex-Dateien
    Schreibgeschützter Modus
    Um z.B. auf einer Party die Bearbeitungsfunktionen zu deaktivieren, kann über Menü "Extras > Schreibgeschützer Modus" ein Passwort hinterlegt werden, mit welchem der Modus wieder deaktiviert werden kann
    Verhalten der Schieberegler einstellbar
    In den Einstellungen (Menü "Extras > Einstellungen > Verhalten der Schieberegler") kann man konfigurieren, ob ein Mausklick den Regler direkt an die gewünschte Stelle setzt oder (wie bisher) eine "Häppchenweise" Änderung vornimmt.

 

Bugfixes

    Bei aktivierter Verzeichnisüberwachung konnte es unter Umständen beim Beenden von AudioExpert zu einer Fehlermeldung kommen
    Bei der Suche kam es zu einer Fehlermeldung, wenn nach "%%" gesucht wurde
    Die Sortierung in der Listenansicht nach "Albumgain/Trackgain" war nicht nummerisch
    Beim manuellen Zuordnen der Amazon ASIN wurde der Albumname im Vorschaufenster nicht korrekt UTF8 decodiert
    Die Thread-Priorität für das Berechnen der korrigierten Bitrate wurde erhöht

Data Crow is the ultimate media cataloger and media organiser. Always wanted to manage all your collections in one product? You want a product you can customize to your needs? Your search ends here! Using Data Crow allows you to create a huge database containing all your collected items. You can use the excellent online services to retrieve the information instead of typing all the information yourself.

- Platform independent and completely portable
- Highly customizable and feature rich.
- Audio, software, book, movie and photo collection cataloger
- Retrieve information from services like Amazon.com, Imdb.com, Softpedia and MusicBrainz.
- Optional internal web server and web GUI.
- Import file information (mp3, divx, xvid, ..)
- Loan registration.
- PDF and HTML reporting.
- Create new modules to, for example, maintain your stamp collection.
- Available translations: Italian, German, Dutch, English, Spanish and French.

Licence: Open Source

Changelog

After a long period of silence, Data Crow rises again to the surface. This patch updates
the external libraries and fixes the most urgent problems. Luckily 4.1 has proven to be
very stable indeed. It's time to continue onwards to version 4.2.

[Fixed]
- Upgrade process; saving icons to disk was only triggered when upgrading from version
  4.0.16 or older. This step will be redone with this version.
- Password could not be changed after setting it for a user.
- For both the server and the client, a different database (as supplied with -db:) could
  not be used.
- For reports the images are now scaled to allow for a maximum dimension of 200x200.
  This to reduce the size of the images and subsequently the report as generated.
- Quick search doesn't work when a quote is in the search value.
- Editing a item "as new" disallows deleting images.
- Play length (duration) incorrectly displayed in the table view.
- The Metacritics.com online search engine did no longer retrieve the title.
 
[Changed]
- The French translation has been improved. All thanks to eReFBe!
- The Softpedia search engine and the Sourceforge.net search engine have been removed.
  Unfortunately the implementation no longer holds. Each site update is potentially
  disruptive to these service since there's no web service to get the information
  reliably and in a structured manner.

[Library Updates]
- PrimeFaces: 5.2 => 6.0
- HSQLDB: 2.3.2 => 2.3.4
- JasperSoft Reports: 5.6.0 => 6.2.2
- JTattoo: 1.6.10 => 1.6.11

Movie File Merger (MFM) helps you with the selective combination of video collections, like home videos, movies, series, or documentaries. It can be used also for other types of collections, like music, or basically any files, but MFM is optimized for videos.

Movie File Merger is not a movie database program like Personal Video Database. It is designed so that the lists can be easily updated once out of date. MFM runs in Dropbox, which makes it easier to share lists with other people. MFM is portable, so that you can run it from anywhere, on any hard disk or memory stick. MFM works together with multiple other programs, like GOM, VLC, MediaInfo, or TeraCopy. All of them can be downloaded and used for free.

Changelog

[Fixed]
– Navigation to external references is no longer allowed.
– The server operated in local mode for displaying images. To avoid this, and to keep
things simple, you now have to supply the IP address used on startup of the server
(-ip:<IP address>). This allows you to specify whether to use the public IP address
(or not).
– Newly created users were not able to log on. This was only the case if no changes
were made to the permissions of the user. Newly created users can now always log on,
regardless of changes made.
– When -dir: parameter was given to Data Crow and the path contained a space, the
installation folder is incorrectly determined.
– Network client did not correctly check for empty required fields.
The server would fail to save the item, but would fail to notify the client of this
fact. On restart, the item (not saved) has disappeared from the view.
– Web UI: same item details shown for different items when navigating between pages
in the paginator.
– Web UI: cannot log on with newly created non-administrator user.
– Web UI: not returned to login page when directly navigating to index.xhtml. No
data is loaded which is good, but an HTML error is displayed.
– Imdb.com searches: missing images in search results.
– Imdb.com searches: year parsing errors, for some records.
– Moviemeter.nl: was broken completed, reactivated.
– Amazon.com: access key has been changed for security reasons. After applying additional
security to the Amazon.com account, the service for previous versions of Data Crow
became unavailable. With this patch, the service has been restored.
– Amazon search has not been throttled to 1 item every second to avoid flooding
the service with request.
– Tab order for the item form was not loaded correctly, causing the setting to be lost
after restarting Data Crow.
– The Quick Search did not work when including %, – or ‘ in the search string.
– File URLs in the quick view will now work correctly.

[Removed]
– Metacritic.com online search. The search plugin was too error prone and can no
longer be maintained. This service has been removed.
– MobyGames online search has been disabled. Awaiting new implementation based on their
API as currently provided.

[Changed]
– Web UI has been improved. The item overview has been changed to a card like
overview and the item form has also been improved. Many other small improvements have
been made for you to check out.
– The online search has been set to only retrieve up to a maximum of 20 items
at a time.
– Increased the input size for the Drive Mappings field from 10 to 50.

[New]
– Polish translation has been added.

[Known issues]
– The GamesDB service is currently offline due to server issues. Service operation
will be restored soon, after which this online service should be working again.
(reference: https://www.facebook.com/thegamesdb).
– Amazon service can still be flooded with requests when Data Crow is used by
many users at the same time. This service should be re-implemented to use batching
of item lookups. Awaiting to see if the throttling actually helps first.

Movie File Merger (MFM) helps you with the selective combination of video collections, like home videos, movies, series, or documentaries. It can be used also for other types of collections, like music, or basically any files, but MFM is optimized for videos.

Movie File Merger is not a movie database program like Personal Video Database. It is designed so that the lists can be easily updated once out of date. MFM runs in Dropbox, which makes it easier to share lists with other people. MFM is portable, so that you can run it from anywhere, on any hard disk or memory stick. MFM works together with multiple other programs, like GOM, VLC, MediaInfo, or TeraCopy. All of them can be downloaded and used for free.

Besondere Stärken zeigt Diffractor bei den Sortieroptionen. Die verwalteten Medien können nach zuletzt bearbeiteten Dateien, Bewertungen und weiteren vordefinierten Kriterien geordnet werden. Mehrere
Ordneransichten und Katalogisierungsoptionen sorgen für eine optimale Orientierung in großen Bildbeständen. Die Freeware sortiert Fotos auf Wunsch automatisch unter anderem nach Kamera, Blende oder Aufnahmeort anzeigen, Filme nach Länge oder Größe und Songs nach Interpreten oder Genres.

Diffractor bietet eine ausgezeichnete Kombination aus Medienverwaltung und Bildbearbeitung. Die grundlegenden Funktionen zum Schärfen, Drehen und Beschneiden der Fotos sind ebenso enthalten wie spezielle Optimierungs-Werkzeuge. Unter anderem kann der Fotofreund störendes Bildrauschen schnell und einfach mit der Freeware beseitigen.

[Fixed]
– Normal users could not log into Data Crow when starting the Data Crow server client.
– The installer did not run „As Administrator“ in Windows, causing the Program Files
folder to not be accessible to the installer. Made an investment in a new executable
builder which does support running in elevated mode (automatically).
– Imdb.com search was broken. This was mainly caused by the free API turning private.
I have opted in for the amount of 10 USD a month to keep this service alive
(http://www.omdbapi.com).

[Changed]
– Polish translation has been updated. The translation was done by Ariel Chylek, many
thanks!
– OFDB.de has been removed. It was in shambles and was not based on an actual API,
something which is a bit of a „no no“ in terms of both stability and reliability.
– Removed TheGamesDB, their API is still down unfortunately. I have switched
this service off for now, hoping to be able to enable it again when it’s back.

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

Updated most of the external libraries as used by Data Crow to their latest versions and fixed an issue with the file importers online search. I have also fixed most of the issues with Amazon searches. I had to follow registration processes for each region as used by Data Crow. Yes, sorry, I was notified many times over by Amazon that this would be required but date X. I had just forgotten the actual date. It should slowly move into a working state with the applications being approved by Amazon. Hopefully I won't get any rejections on my applications, but, we'll see.

Not sure if you would consider this a bug, but if nothing else it is confusing...

Two issues:

1: Rename movie outside root folder causes movie to be moved to root of drive

    Drag a movie that is not in a root folder, i.e. some random other location, onto MC
    Movie is scanned automatically and added to MC database
    Select to rename movie and folder
    Movie is movied to / (the root of the drive) presumably because it has no root folder

2: It is difficult to add a movie that has been subjected to issue above

    After following above steps, move the movie to a root folder that has been added to MC
    Movies -> Search for new movies does not find this movie
    Dropping the movie onto MC does not add it
    To add it I had to go to "Folders" and hit Save and Refresh

Movie File Merger (MFM) helps you with the selective combination of video collections, like home videos, movies, series, or documentaries. It can be used also for other types of collections, like music, or basically any files, but MFM is optimized for videos.

Movie File Merger is not a movie database program like Personal Video Database. It is designed so that the lists can be easily updated once out of date. MFM runs in Dropbox, which makes it easier to share lists with other people. MFM is portable, so that you can run it from anywhere, on any hard disk or memory stick. MFM works together with multiple other programs, like GOM, VLC, MediaInfo, or TeraCopy. All of them can be downloaded and used for free.

Fix: Fix issue with mulitple persons pointing to the same IMDB person page. This is a major bug fix that requires re-importing some movie's person data from IMDB. To accomplish this, movie updates items will be added to the import queue. Also, because this requires major database updates your server may take a while to come up so be patient.

Ant Movie Catalog helps to manage your collection of movies DVDs, CDs and tapes. It is able to import information from IMDB (US), DVDFR (FR), Allociné (FR), Culturalia (ES) and lots of others using scripts. It also imports media information such as codec, bitrates, resolution, framerate, and size, and exports to HTML, CSV and SQL. You can store cover pictures directly within the catalog, or link to external images files in PNG, JPEG and GIF formats. Additional features include loan management and statistics charts.

License: GPL

Changelog

In addition to the TLS 1.2 support (which should solve HTTPS problems encountered lately on a few sites) this version also includes the latest MediaInfo version.
I also cleaned the import/export list by removing some obsolete formats.
Updated scripts for DVDFR, FilmAffinity and MovieCovers are included.
The latest version of MediaInfo does not seem to run on Windows XP any more (to be tested/confirmed, I don't know if that was already the case of the previous versions). In case the lack of Windows XP support is a problem for some users, I could try to arrange something to support both old and new versions of the library, as the interface didn't change, only the version numbering.
I still didn't reimplement the GetCookies & DeleteCookies functions for the scripts, as none of the published scripts were using them, and it was less easy than expected to bring these back in Indy version 10.

Movies by CraigWorks is an application that combines a movie collection organizer and a home theater PC software in one. Unlike most movie organizers, this application runs as web server and is accessed using a standard web browser like IE, Firefox and Chrome, so the interface is very familiar and easy to use.

Freeware

Changelog

Enhancement: Modularize application deployables to allow separate releases of data importers. Application updates are checked once a day or on server start up. You can force a update check using "Check for Updates" in main menu. When a data importers module update is available the check will notify you. You can install the new updates by clicking on the link in the notification or from the main menu item "Install Importer Updates." If instead a new application update is available, clicking on the notification or on main menu item "New Version Available" will navigate to the website to allow reading the release notes and downloading the application for install.
Fix: Update to algorithm that computes media file checksums. All media files will have new checksum computed in the background. Prior checksum for media files looked at last modified time and size. New check sum uses part of the beginning and ending bytes plus length of file (Note: checksum on all whole file content would take way too long.)
Fix: Importing a person did not overwrite the persons name.
Fix: Other minor fixes.

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

Movies by CraigWorks is an application that combines a movie collection organizer and a home theater PC software in one. Unlike most movie organizers, this application runs as web server and is accessed using a standard web browser like IE, Firefox and Chrome, so the interface is very familiar and easy to use.

Freeware

Changelog

    Enhancement: Add ability during install to specify "log on as" username and password for the service. Upon subsequent upgrades, the install program will remember the username but you will have to re-enter the password as this is not stored anywhere. It is better to install the service with a known user account then to use system (leave username blank). With system user it is hard to know what network shares are visible and accessible.
    Enhancement: Better support for devices of different sizes.
    Fix: Fix IMDB trailer import.
    Fix: Fix null pointer exception (NPE) that occurred with some ASS subtitles.

The downloader easy-importer lain image is now clickable to launch a file selection dialog

The duplicate filter now counts pending tags when saying which file has more tags
Advanced content updates now copy both current and pending tags. the other actions now state what they do more clearly

Removed wx import that accidentally came into server space due to 2to3 check
Improved the path-fixing code that helps environment construction when launching external programs from non-windows frozen builds
Fixed a critical pubsub processing bug that kicked in at a certain stage of client shutdown. this should stop the post-shutdown-processing memory explosion certain users were seeing and should stop any ui jank in the last 0.2s of the program for everyone else
Improved some other shutdown memory cleanup that was sometimes leading to double-log-printing of exit statements
Did a full pass over the daemon scheduling code. it now reacts more responsively to various shut down situations
Reduced db disk cache aggression significantly and added more memory maintenance to the cache population process
Fixed an issue where subscriptions were not promptly responding to shutdown events

Client api:

Wrote a 'catch a permissions request' mini-dialog for external api permissions adding

Wrote api calls:

GET
/api_version
/request_new_permissions
/verify_access_key
/add_urls/get_url_info
POST
/add_urls/add_url
And made a new 'client api' help page to describe in detail what these do
Wrote fairly comprehensive unit tests for the new client api
Refactored a bunch of 'hydrus network' specific stuff away from general server code that the client api now uses
Neatened up 401 vs 403 error handling across the program, and replaced some clientside error handling that was inelegantly borrowing these network errors
Deleted very old prototype file/thumbnail client server fetch code, which was no longer in use

Misc and bug fixes:

Added a 'clear ratings' button to the ratings service 'review services' panels. it can clear out ratings for deleted, non-local, or all files
The '3 downloaders are working, is it ok to close the client?' message is now folded into the 'confirm client exit (auto-yes in 15s)' dialog. this merged dialog will still appear for users who have the regular confirm client exit dialog turned off (and still auto-yeses in 15s)
The file url downloader now reports 'downloading file' and 'importing url' text status separately
Fixed a typo bug from last week that was breaking asc/desc ratings service sorting
Fixed a typo bug from last week that was stopping manage import folders from opening
Fixed a typo bug from last week that was breaking setting upnp port on the local booru/client api service management panel
The advanced file reparse-and-re-thumbnailing routine now correctly moves a file to its new extension if its mime changes (e.g. png->apng, or webm/mkv distinctions)
The client file manager now silently detects and auto-repairs instances of missing files where the file actually does exist, just with the wrong extension
Fixed a url parsing issue that was normalise-mangling url classes with no path but some query parameters
The network engine now uses utf-8 decoding when no specific encoding is set (previously ISO-8859-1)
Fixed an ffmpeg video parsing bug when the video included Shift-JIS metadata. it should work for other unusual encodings as well
Maybe cleaned up some menubar management code
The filename tagging dialog now uses a notebook for service choice, like the manage tags dialog, rather than the janky old listbook
Fixed a py2-to-3 issue with the admin-only 'is server currently busy' check while a backup is running
Improved some dialog button event handling. it may completely fix the 'trytoendmodal' issue some users run into
Improved some JSON db serialisation error reporting code, trying to pin down an issue several users have seen with session save
Improved thread-safety of serialisable objects as they serialise

'/api_version' now returns JSON, and after talking with users, it will now start incrementing with every api change. it remains 1 just for this week
'/request_access_permissions' now returns JSON
'/add_url' now results JSON on success with more info, 403 on failure
'/get_url_info' now returns the 'normalised_url' in the response JSON
Added '/get_url_files', which returns 'url_file_statuses', listing known hashes and file import status for that url
Added '/add_files/add_file', which can import a file from a path or bytes
Added '/add_tags/get_tag_services', which will return info on the client's tag services
Updated client api help to reflect the above changes and fleshed out the intro a bit
Fixed the client api permissions enum values in the help, which I somehow transcribed wrong first time
Updated the client api tests to check the above
Refactored client api tests to be neater and in their own file

The rest:

Fixed the page of pages close bug
Added a downloader for nijie.info to the client defaults (it needs a login)
Updated danbooru file page parsers to get 'rating' tag
Added gelbooru 0.1.11 parser for future application
Fixed an issue that was stopping advanced content updates from fully copying all the desired mappings in the transaction
Added a semi-hacky checkbox to 'options->files and trash' that will delay all new file/thumb requests for 15s after the computer resumes from sleep (useful if your files are on a NAS that takes a few seconds to reconnect on wake)
Wrote some more graceful fallback decoding handling code that attempts original assumed encoding and 'utf-8' if different and returns the one with the fewest '�' replacement characters
The network engine and the ffmpeg info parsing now use this new 'safe' decoding, so even if a site has borked bytes or the video file has unexpected Shift-JIS title metadata, it'll still go through, albeit with some question marks
Moved some more old daemons to the new job scheduler, deleted some old daemon code
Improved some daemon job wake and shutdown code
Wrote a proper upnp manager object and improved all-around reliability of the auto upnp-service-mapping code
Simplified the upnp check code so it now only ever checks/does anything if the respective services actually want upnp mappings. surplus mappings are now wiped immediately on service update
Fixed upnp mapping fetching to cope with ipv6 results
Improved some memory clearing code to deal with some semi-stubborn objects
Improved some 'iterate through this giant list of single numbers from the db without using a lot of memory' code and applied it to the autocomplete cache regeneration routine
Improved menubar stability, both in finding menus and swapping them out
If a serialised json object fails to load from the db, this is now caught, the bad object deleted and written to a new file in the db dir, and all logging info captured along with an explanatory popup thrown on screen. so, if a subscription fails to load, it will now be extracted so that a subsequent subscription edit/run will work with the remaining good objects. in the case of backed-up objects (gui sessions atm), reattempting the load should restore the next most recent backup
Fixed an issue with login script validation when the given credentials have surplus ( key, value ) pairs to the script's credential definitions
Fixed two login invalid cookie error handling bugs
Maybe made some dupe filter searching more stable
Fixed a py2 datatype issue that made the client unbootable when updating the client from <296
The client now pauses to nag and moan about backups if you try to update more than 15 versions in one go
Slightly sped up discord bugfix file drag and drops and expanded file limit up to 25 files/200MB
Added experimental secret discord bugfix dnd mode checkbox
Improved how html parsing deals with some unexpected bad tag data
Turned on primitive high-dpi support for OS X. let me know if it fixes any blurry issues on retina displays
Wrote a new 'ui test' under the debug->gui menu to help catch common-action bugs that slipped through weekly work
Improved how the test code does some wx/ui stuff, but also broke some more and ran out of time to clean it up--this is an ongoing project
Improved how some text import line splitting works

Beitrag von: SiLæncer am 18 Februar, 2019, 09:16

Ant Movie Catalog helps to manage your collection of movies DVDs, CDs and tapes. It is able to import information from IMDB (US), DVDFR (FR), Allociné (FR), Culturalia (ES) and lots of others using scripts. It also imports media information such as codec, bitrates, resolution, framerate, and size, and exports to HTML, CSV and SQL. You can store cover pictures directly within the catalog, or link to external images files in PNG, JPEG and GIF formats. Additional features include loan management and statistics charts.

License: GPL

Changelog

The only change compared to the beta version is a minor fix in the loans management window, and the inclusion of latest scripts in the installation package.



Version 4.2.2 Beta

In addition to the TLS 1.2 support (which should solve HTTPS problems encountered lately on a few sites) this version also includes the latest MediaInfo version.
I also cleaned the import/export list by removing some obsolete formats.
Updated scripts for DVDFR, FilmAffinity and MovieCovers are included.
The latest version of MediaInfo does not seem to run on Windows XP any more (to be tested/confirmed, I don't know if that was already the case of the previous versions). In case the lack of Windows XP support is a problem for some users, I could try to arrange something to support both old and new versions of the library, as the interface didn't change, only the version numbering.
I still didn't reimplement the GetCookies & DeleteCookies functions for the scripts, as none of the published scripts were using them, and it was less easy than expected to bring these back in Indy version 10.

Changelog

Client api:

Added /add_tags/add_tags, which does several kinds of tag content updates
Added /add_tags/clean_tags, which shows how hydrus will handle potential tags
Added /add_urls/associate_url, which allows you to associate urls with files
Added 'destination_page_name' to /add_urls/add_url, which will choose which destination watcher/url importer to place the url (or create a new one with that name)
Updated client api version to 2
Updated client help and unit tests for the above
Added a linked contents to the client api help
Improved some server error handling, mostly moving 403s to more correct 400s
Improved how missing parameter 400 errors are reported from the server vs deeper keyerrors that should be 500

The rest:

Tag repository update processing now saves progress to disk every million rows or every minute, whichever comes first. this reduces journaling bloat, improves recovery when the process quits unexpectedly, and makes for significantly faster cancel when requested by the user
When processing duplicates and copying/merging/moving ratings, the 'source' file will now also overwrite the 'destination' file's rating if that destination rating is lower (previously, the rating would only go over if the dest had no rating set)
Added a new 'thumbnail experiment mode' under help->debug->gui. this will load fullsize thumbs and resize them in memory, please see release post for more details
Reduced menubar replacement flicker while, I believe, keeping and strengthening recent menubar indexing stability improvements
The tag autocomplete dropdown will now always embed (instead of floating) in non-Windows
When data seems non-decodable, the fallback encoding format is now that given by chardet, rather than utf-8
Improved serialisability of some pending tag data
Watchers can now hold and pass on fixed pending tag datagallery log objects can now hold and pass on fixed pending tag data
File import objects can now hold and action fixed pending tag data
Hard drive imports now store their paths-to-tags info in this new format, directly in the file import objects
Improved some url-import page drop-target-selection logic
Improved error reporting when dropping/api-adding urls
Adjusted some url import workflow so big 'already in db' download lists should work a bit faster
Attempting to start the program with some external database files but not the main 'client.db/server.db' file will now cause a boot-fail exception with an explanation before any stub db files can be made
Tightened up some hydrus service login-capability-testing code that was previously stopping certain error states from recovering promptly, even on a force account refresh, while the service was maxed on bandwidth
Fixed a source of linux CRITICAL logspam related to several common dialogs
Improved ui stability on boot when file folders are missing (particularly for linux)
Improved stability for the various async tasks on the duplicates processing page, particularly for linux. I am not sure I got everything here, but it is definitely better
Did some more misc stability improvements, particularly in various boot fail scenarios
Completely removed an ancient and janky focus catcher widget from the main gui frame
Now various db caching is improved on the python side, removed a sqlite instruction to force temp information to always stay in memory--hot data returns to staying mostly in memory to start and then spools to disk if the transaction gets too large
Fixed approx bitrate sorting for malformed video files with explicitly '0' duration
Daemon_profile_mode now spams some more info about export folders
Fixed an issue that meant client db maintenance was firing its jobs too aggressively, regardless of idle status
Updated windows build to cv 4.0

Changelog

Added support for webp import. it does not yet support animated webps, which, if the local platform supports, will import like apngs used to: just the first frame
Added support for tiff import. it works ok for 24bit and 8bit (monochrome) tiffs, but I am not sure how well it will do with 48bit
Both webp and tiff should work on the duplicate files system
Improved webm detection to include opus audio (previously, these files were falling back to mkv)
Fixed an issue where unusual formats with duration but no frames or frames but no duration were being sorted and otherwise presented incorrectly
Improved autocomplete job cancelability. this job can now cancel much faster on large jobs, meaning typing searches with large result sets will hit less CPU and return faster on subsequent keystrokes
All of the complicated 'copy url' commands from the thumbnail right-click->known urls menu are now available on the 'open' submenu! if there is more than one url to open (e.g. 'open all of these files blahbooru post urls' on a selection of 50 files), you will be presented with a yes/no dialog to confirm, and it will open one url in your browser every second (with a cancellable popup if num_urls > 5)
By default, system:everything is now hidden if its total files is >10k. you can force it to always show under options->default system predicates
The gallery downloader's list's status column now shows gallery status (deferring to active file status) when appropriate and shows 'done!' when all work is complete
After working back and forth with a user, I believe the linux similar files >0 distance search crash is finally fixed
Fixed sorting by media views/viewtiming with collections
A single-selected collection right-click now shows total media views for all files in the collection! you can now see how long you have been viewing an artist!
Fixed an issue that lead to export folders not running on always-on clients as often as they should
Updated the gelbooru 0.2.5 file page parser to pull rating tag from the correct location (previously, it was pulling from what appears to be a site-wide 'mature' browser hint)
Improved memory cleanup stability when animations and other parts of the video rendering pipeline are deleted--this may fix some rare crashes
Increased animation rendering aggression overall and particularly in 'future' of frame buffer
If a video renderer that is asked to start some way into the video fails to render anything, it will now fall back to trying to render from the beginning. this is slightly hacky atm and leads to out of phase rendering frames, but it is better than an error
added a '--no_db_temp_files' launch parameter that will force the client or server to return to the recent old behaviour of exclusively using memory for journalling. this is useful if your temp directory is small and/or your available ram is very large. if running in this mode, the client will attempt to check available memory (instead of free space on your temp dir) before performing very large transactions
With the new lighter-weight update transactions, the client now tests for less free space for journalling before running repository update processing
Added /get_files/search_files to the client api, which does the first half of file searching. it allows tag search (including -tag negation) and system inbox/archive. since the second half, which will fetch file metadata, is not yet in, this can't do anything interesting yet
Updated help and unit tests to support this, client api version is now 3

Added optional 'show_destination_page' arg to '/add_urls/add_url', defaulting to False, to control whether an URL-add will select (i.e. jump to) the destination page in the ui. this changes the default behaviour for this command
Simplified the routine that finds or creates a watcher or url import page and fixed a bug in the api that was not creating new pages when destination_page_name was specified
Some misc cleanup
Fixed fetching file_metadata by hashes
Fixed the client api help regarding file_metadata response example tags
Client api version is now 5

The rest:

Psd support added! because of this format's potential multi-layer complexity, it will not render natively, but width and height are parsed. it is treated as 'application/x-photoshop'. PSB is also recognised and treated as psd
Added a 'open_known_url' shortcut to the 'media' shortcut set that lets you quickly open URLs for files. if there is one recognised known url, it will be launched, and if there are multiple, a list with all known urls will appear to select which one you want
Animation scanbars now show an x/y current timestamp! it includes millisecond timings and even works for variable framerate gifs. whether to show a second/shadow caret for timestamp position on variable frame rate is a new discussion to have
Fixed an issue where animations would sometimes not resume animation for several seconds after a big scanbar drag
When the thumbnail manager cannot produce a thumbnail due to a storage error (like a missing file), it now only puts up a single, more informative error popup on the first problem. subsequent errors are printed silently to the log. (these errors tend to come in en masse, so this cuts down on spam and error-related ui lag that was making loading a bad session difficult)
Improved error reporting when an upload pending command would fail due to service non-functionality--it should now give a popup with error info imediately, rather than obscured through the login system
Added temp_dir parameter to the client and server that will override which temporary directory the program will use
Cleaned up how no_daemons and no_wal mode are handled internally
No_wal mode now has to be called from the command parameter, the no_wal file hack in the db directory no longer works
Missing ffmpeg errors now prompt the user to check if it is installed
Searching for numerical ratings should now work for files that were rated when the service had a different number of stars (ratings now searches in 'bands' rather than exact values)
Reduced the min height of the new import files frame's list
Doubled the decompression bomb test to permit files up to ~179 megapixel, we'll see how it goes
Misc cleanup

This is a maintenance version with a lot of internal code restructurization. The main goal of this version is to make maintenance easier and to split the application into several modules. This is an ongoing process also for the next versions. Main goal is to separate core code and optional functionality.
The source code is divided into three main parts: a core part which is completely independent of gui code, a cli module which ontains a the command line tool, and the actual application.
The main change for the user is, that the application does not contain the cli functionality. For this, the separate cli client is needed.

Changelog

Set out a plan to achieve some simple conjunctive normal form (e.g. (blue eyes OR green eyes) AND (blonde hair OR red hair)) OR search support
Started work on the object extension and search code to support this search in a very basic (and likely inefficient-for-some-scenarios) way--we'll work on this as we discover the most common inefficiencies

Thumbnails:

The client no longer uses both 'master' and 'resized' thumbnails--it uses a single, smarter thumbnail
Only the 'txx' thumbnail directories (formerly referred to as full-size) are now used, and the thumbnails inside will regenerate and scale themselves as needed on demand (and will be careful to not save changes to disk when when their source file is non-local)
The old 'rxx' 'resized' thumbnail directories are no longer referred to anywhere in the code or ui
The old 'rxx' thumbnails directories will be permanently (i.e. no recycle bin) deleted on update. this is a big job, and you will be prompted on update before it happens
If you have migrated your db to put 'resized' thumbs on an SSD but not the formerly 'full-size', you will want to recheck the 'migrate database' dialog once you have booted and set a new thumbnail override to move the txx directories over
Due to the smarter thumbnail, 200x200 is no longer the hard limit for hydrus thumbnails! you can now set up to 2048x2048
All file storage location information is now stored directly in the client db (rather than the options object), which should make for more easily export/importable options in future and improve manual fixing as needed
Added more thumbnail-resizing related popup spam to file report mode
Fixed a windows-only issue that was making the migrate db dialog close after a file move event concluded
Updated database migration help for new concepts and ui
Cleaned up some misc storage code

The rest:

Fixed a problem in the client api with fetching file identifiers from file_ids
Fleshed out 'help my db is broke.txt' with more specific clone recovery examples
Fixed import support for a variety of single-frame music webms
Fixed an edge-case preview viewer initialisation bug that was trying to draw the canvas before any media was set
Network report mode now states url classes of urls about to be parsed

Changelog

Or search:

Extended the search predicate object to handle more OR stuff
Extended the tag list to handle list objects that have multiple colours
Extended the new OR search predicate to report multiple text-snippet-and-colour pairs based on sub-predicates
Extended tag search input to handle prototype OR predicate creation--hold shift when you enter the tag, and it'll start an OR chain. shift-enter continues the chain, enter alone completes it
Fleshed out the predicate unit tests to cover more of this
Wrote unit tests for OR search predicates. it seems good!
Improved some search logic to apply system preds better in certain edge cases and spend less CPU on OR-search-only searches

Thumbnails:

Thumbnails will now queue for load in a more intelligent order based on estimated difficulty to regenerate, which will tend to put more thumbs on screen faster
The decision to regenerate a thumbnail from source is now tempered by how different the current thumbnail is from what is desired--the more similar the two sizes, the more (randomly) likely the client will decide to just use the current (resized) this time. this smooths out change-lag while limiting the number of really fuzzy thumbs you get. feedback on how this works IRL would be appreciated--it uses some voodoo distribution polling to figure it out, which I can definitely tweak
Improved visual quality of thumbnail scale-up optimisations
Fixed an issue where a multipage thumbnail grid would incorrectly recalculate the new virtual height after a thumbnail size change event, leading to a bit of invalid extra scrollspace (with noclip rendering errors) at the bottom
The thumbnail right-click menu's reparse files entry is now extended to a new 'regenerate' submenu with three options: reparse file and regen thumbs (the old action), force regen thumbs, and regen thumbs if wrong size!
The new 'regen if thumbs wrong size' action sends how many thumbs needed resize up to the popup window, as well
Moved some old thumbnail regen code responsibility out of the db and into the files manager
Cleaned out some old redundant file/thumbnail code
Cleaned and refactored a bunch of general image handling and resizing code

The rest:

Fixed some bad serialisation code that was making file search objects set their 'include current tags' value to false/true on interleaving loads. on this update, all 'include current tags' values are blanket reset to true
Fixed an issue that was drawing animation canvases pure white on various media update events
Extended manage urls dialog to support multiple files when launched from a selection of thumbnails. there is a warning in this case, noting that only gallery-style urls are appropriate to be added to multiple files
Manage urls dialog now supports multiple selections, including shift-select, and accepts delete key presses for easy mass deletion
When you ask the database migration dialog to move some files, it now pops up a confirmation dialog that also asks if you would like to limit the max time for the job as 10, 30, or 60 minutes
Improved file permission setting code across the program to be more sensible for non-Windows
If you are a non-Windows user and were hit with directory permission problems last week on the thumbnail update--which resulted in the rxx directories not being deleted--the update this week will attempt to do the delete again, this time correcting the now missing execute permission bit. if it finds outstanding rxx directories to delete, it will give a popup beforehand summarising the situation and giving you a chance to bail out
Fixed yet another problem that was stopping client api url requests from finding the correct page by name
When a client api url request includes fixed tags, these tags should now propagate in all scenarios where the single url produces multiple files
Updated sqlite dll and console for windows

Changelog

Or search:

Under construction OR predicates now present at the top of the regular tag results list, prepended with 'OR: ', and skipping default selection
This new OR line is enter-able, which will present it as-is, rather than adding new preds
Hitting escape on a 'search' tag input box that is empty but has an under construction or predicate will cancel the or pred
Hitting escape on a 'search' tag input box otherwise should more reliably kill its focus when the dropdown is a float window
Improved OR search efficiency significantly with dynamic OR search triggering based on other search predicates. OR searches including negated '-tag' components should be massively faster when paired with non-OR tag or file search predicates
I believe I fixed a search issue that would sometimes return insufficient results when OR preds are mixed with certain other combinations of tags
Improved reliability of some thumbnail refresh calls
Cleaned up a bunch of OR handling ui code

The rest:

After previous weeks' experiments, wrote new double-layer thumbnail loading system--now too-small thumbs will quckly scale up fuzzily straight to screen, and then in the coming seconds, the nice regenerated full-size thumb will be made and drawn in place as ready. it presents much faster and looks better, but there is some cleanup to do here that I will tackle next week
All local file trashing events now record a context-appropriate deletion statement such as "Deleted from Media Viewer." this value is recovered in 'deleted' import status 'notes'. You will mostly see 'Unknown deletion reason.', for files deleted before this new system, but it will populate with appropriate info over time
Fixed a search optimisation that was not cross-referencing with file domain, meaning for instance that bare system:rating calls were returning since-deleted files
Upnp management window now uses new listctrl
Cleaned up some old custom page-naming code
Added a 'data' debug call to clear out all cached thumbnails and force an instant ui thumb reload
Fixed the trash bmp misalignment, ha ha
Removed e-hentai login script from the defaults, since this testing script is not appropriate for new users
Dejanked some media viewer video transitions by cleaning up animation bar rendering and smoothing out video buffer initialisation
Cleaned out some surplus subprocess wait calls that were hanging some systems on various 'open externally' calls
Fixed multiple syncing problems with 'synchronise' export folders that produce files with subdirectories. subdirectory structures should now be synced correctly and empty folders deleted
Export folders that collapse multiple file results to the same duplicated name should, after the next run, do less overwriting to this same name
If an export folder or the regular export dialog makes a file destination path that is above the chosen directory (e.g. if the path starts with ../ or ..), the export job will error out with an explanation
Big manual file exports should be politer to the ui and cause fewer hangs
Doing page tab drag and drops may have less post-drop ui jank on linux, continued feedback would be appreciated
Moved 'reason' handling for all content updates to its own area, which neatens many content update data handling issues
Fixed petitioning a tag via a shortcut, which had bad reason handling
Fixed an issue with committing pending ipfs items that was overchecking service permissions
Fixed some remaining bad wx code in the unit tests
Misc file status reporting cleanup

Wrote some OR search help to 'getting started with tags' help page
Wrote a new multi-reader, single-writer lock object for the client file manager, along with some unit tests for it.
Updated the file and thumbnail access and regen and maintenance code to use the new lock. various access is now faster when available and overall safer. there is still work to do here
Adjusted file import to be less aggressive about locking, which should reduce some file/thumbnail access lag during heavy imports
The thumbnail space estimate in the migrate database dialog is now more adaptive to the new more flexible thumbnail size system and specificies better that it is an estimate
The client api's /add_tags/add_tags call now collapses siblings and expands parents on an add/pend call. this can be turned off by setting the new optional parameter 'add_siblings_and_parents' to false. the help is updated regarding this and the client api version is incremented to 6
Fixed the client api's /add_tags/add_tags call for the 'hashes' parameter, which was failing to parse, and added an accidentally missing unit test to check this in future
The client local services (the booru and client api) now have two new options under their 'manage services' panel: 'support CORS', which turns on cross-orogin support (which is experimental for now, so defaults to False), and 'logs requests', which controls whether your log will be spammed with request reports (this also defaults to False), which should clear up some 100MB+ log hassle for people using the Hydrus Companion browser add-on
Hydrus services now respond correctly (albeit sparsely) to OPTIONS requests, and if CORS is enabled, to CORS OPTIONS requests. there are unit tests for this that seem to work ok, but I think we'll need to verify it irl
Finished a first version bitmap manager to handle all wx bitmap creation and destruction, including recycling mid-steps
Updated all simple wx bitmap creation and destruction calls across the client to use the new bitmap manager, improving stability and saving some CPU
Fixed some incorrect button alignment flags that were causing problems for clients set to assert check these values
Added a new yiff.party file url class to the defaults that matches a new file attachment format
Updated the 'url' content parser so if a parsed url is in the form 'summary_text url', as some booru source fields sometimes specify, the preceding summary text is removed, cleaning up the resultant url
Silenced an old server connection lost error that was needlessly loud
Silenced the client network engine from additionally log-printing SizeException errors when a downloading file (usually gif) exceeds file import options rules

Titel: Hydrus Network 349
Beitrag von: SiLæncer am 25 April, 2019, 13:40
Changelog

Duplicate filter:

The duplicate filter page now has a full-on real-deal file search object to narrow down the duplicate filter, potential duplicate count, and 'show some random dupes' search domains! it also has a 'both files match' checkbox that determines if one of both files of the potential pairs should match the search!

The duplicate filter page has multiple layout changes as a result:

The main management area is now split into two pages--'preparation', for doing maintenance and discovery work, and 'filtering', for actioning the potential dupe pairs found
The 'filtering' page will select by default, but if 'preparation' needs work, its name will become 'preparation (needs work)'
The 'filtering' page now has file search ui and the 'both files' checkbox instead
The two pages' status texts are now updated on separate calls which have been rewritten to be asynchronous (with 'updating...' text while they work). both now have explicit refresh buttons to force them to update
The additional non-unknown pair counts listed on the filter area, which were irrelevant to filtering and sometimes confusing, are now gone. it only lists the 'unknown' pair number
The duplicate filter page's help button no longer has the awful 'simple help' entry. the full html help will get a pass in the coming weeks to reflect the new search changes
The duplicate file db code received significant refactoring and improvement to support searching the potential dupe space while cross-referencing the new file search context (and still falling back to the fast code when the search is just blank/system:everything)
Misc duplicate file db code cleanup and refactoring
While in advanced mode, you can no longer select 'all known files' file domain for an export folder (and now the duplicate filter page) search context
Making a file delete action in the duplicate filter (by hitting delete key or the button on the top hover window, which both trigger a dialog asking to delete one or both) now auto-skips the current pair

Manage tags:

The manage tags has a new 'siblings and parents' button that will auto-replace incorrect siblings and auto-add missing parents! it works on multi-file selections as well! it gives you a summary yes/no dialog before it fires
The manage tags dialog has a little logic cleanup r.e. siblings and parents and their cog auto-apply options. the auto-application now only applies on add/pend actions
The manage tags dialog has a new cog button option to not trigger 'remove' actions from an autocomplete dropdown or suggested tag input action when the tag already exists

The rest:

Gave video metadata parsing another pass--it now detects 'hidden' incorrect framerates due to advanced 'skip frame' codec settings and is more accurate at determining frame count and duration, including some fixed offset calculations that was sometimes adding or discounting a few frames
Manual video frame count, when needed, is now faster and produces better error text
Fixed a critical bug in thumbnail regen that was sometimes potentially looping regen on files with unusual rotation exif information
Significant improvements to how the client file manager handles thumbnail identifier information, saving a great deal of time for file import and thumbnail regeneration code of videos
Fixed an issue where regenerated file metadata was not propagating up to the ui level in real time
Cleaned up some thumbnail cache initialisation code
The 'generate video thumbs this % in' option is moved from the 'media' to 'thumbnails' options page
To simplify code, and in prep for the idle-maintenance-rewrite of this system, the database->regen->thumbnails call is now removed
All three fields of text on serialised pngs now wrap, and they pad a little better as well
Added a new option to the 'gui pages' options page to force input text box focus on page changes
Fixed a small type issue with the server's session cookie code and some new library versions

If you frequently work with large numbers of video files, you probably know how difficult it is to find what you need without watching every single clip. Thankfully, there are various types of applications that can help you out.

Scene Explorer is one of them, a fairly simple utility that generates thumbnails for every video in a directory, making it easier for you to see their contents without actually playing them.

Changelog

The duplicate filter no longer applies the implicit system limit (which defaults to 10,000 files) on its search domains, which solves the undercounting issue on large search domains. duplicate operations will be appropriately slower, so narrow your duplicate file queries (adding a creator: tag works great) if they take too long
Fixed the duplicate pairs filter's 'ghost pair' issue. it was failing, when 'both files' was unchecked, to remove pairs that included one file that was non-local. this accidental inclusion resulted in incorrect non-zero count and filter/random pairs that could not display correctly
Insulated against potential future iterations of this problem (likely that one of the pair was deleted by another process while a filter is ongoing), with a notification and graceful exiting of the duplicate filter while saving progress
The 'show random duplicates' button now puts the 'base' of the group (to which all the others are potentially matched) as the first thumbnail
Added a new 'advanced file deletion' section to 'files and trash' options page to turn on a new advanced dialog and set custom file deletion reasons
If this new dialog is turned on, a delete event from thumbnail grid, regular media viewer, or the duplicate filter's manual delete will launch it. it permits you to delete physically (skipping trash) in one step or delete physically without leaving a deletion record (for easier later re-import) and choose one of the deletion reasons in the new options panel or set a one-time custom reason
Export folders now have more run-controls: 'run regularly', 'paused', and 'run now'
The file menu now has a 'run export folder now' submenu just like for import folders-- it is simple now to set up an export folder that only runs when you tell it to
Updated the on-boot missing file folder recovery process to automatically 'heal' file location mappings when a missing folder is actually in a location that is known (essentially, you can now manually move a bunch of folders from one known location to another while the client is off and it will recover automatically now). error dialogs will appear in this case summarising the problem and proposed fixes with a chance to bail out if you do not want it to happen
Added a new frame type to 'gui' options page called 'regular_center_dialog' for yes/no style dialogs that are better in the center of the parent window
The custom web browser launch path and file type 'open externally' paths are moved from 'files and trash' to a new 'external programs' options page
As the superior '--temp_path' program launch parameter now exists for both client and server, I have removed the limited 'BUGFIX: temp folder override' option from the client's 'files and trash' page and use in the actual code. if this option was important to you, please migrate to the --temp_path launch parameter, which covers temp usage more comprehensively
As the artstation downloader is now non-functional, apparently by a cloudflare issue, the default gug for new users (and anyone with artstation set atm) is now safebooru
Added dolphin file manager add-on link to the client api help
Some misc file metadata fetching cleanup

Changelog

Wrote a new (always on top!) hover window for the duplicate filter that sits on the middle-right. the duplicate cog button and action buttons are moved to this new window, as are the file comparison statements
The duplicate file comparison statements now state the relevant actual metadata along with better '>>'-style operators to highlight differences and green/red/blue colouring based on given score. it is now much easier to see and action clearly better files at-a-glance
Improved some hover window focus display calculations to play with the new always-on-top tech
Both the 'show some random dupes' button and finding dupe pairs for the filter should be a bit faster for very large search domains. the basic file search and indexing still has to run, but the second sampling step in both cases will bail out earlier once it has a decent result
Core image handling functions now uniformly use OpenCV (faster, more accurate) by default, falling to PIL/Pillow on errors. image importing in the client and server should be a bit faster, and some unusual image rotations should now be read correctly
The server now supports OpenCV for image operations, it should also still work with only PIL/Pillow, if you are running from source and cannot get it
Unified all thumbnail generation code and insulated it from suprises due to unexpectedly-sized source files, fixing a potential client-level thumbnail generation looping bug
Gave all image processing a refactor and general cleanup pass, deleted a bunch of old code
Wrote a new 'local tag cache' for the db that will speed up tag definition lookups for all local files. this should speed up a variety of tag and file result fetching, particularly right after client boot. it will take a minute or two on update to generate
Sped up how fast the tag parent structure builds itself
The review services panel now uses nested notebooks, rather than the old badly coded listbook control. I don't really like how it looks, but the code is now saner
Similar-files metadata generation now discards blank frames more reliably
Subscription popups now report x/y progress in terms of the current job, discarding historical work previously done. 1001/1003 is gone, 1/3 is in
Made the disk cache more conservative on non-pre-processing calls
Cleaned up some file import code, moving responsibility from the file locations manager to the file import object
Updated the ipfs service listctrl to use the new listctrl object. also cleaned up its action code to be more async and stable
I believe I fixed a rare vector for the 'tryendmodal' dialog bug
Fixed a bug in presenting the available importable downloader objects in the easy drag-and-drop downloader import when the multiple downloaders dropped included objects of the same type and name--duplicate-named objects in this case will now be discarded
Unified url_match/url_class code differences to url class everywhere
Updated some common db list selection code to use new python string formatting
Plenty of misc code cleanup

Fixed an issue where media that fitted the media viewer canvas width or height exactly at 100% zoom would not respond to zoom switch events to restore non-100% zoom to 100%
When a local server's CORS mode is turned on, Access-Control-Allow-Origin is now correctly added to GET/POST requests with an Origin request header
Improved reliability of some timestamp rendering code, which should help some users who had trouble opening cookies management page after malformed cookie import
I believe I fixed an issue with 'open externally' on certain custom paths where the external program could spawn without an ui (flash projector did this). please let me know if your 'open externally' calls start making terminal windows everywhere

Unfortunately last.fm introduced some changes to the usage of their API and MusicBee is currently exceeding those restrictions. As such I have made a number of changes. The functions still implemented are:

Scrobbling
Playcount sync
Track love and track love sync - however track love now updates last.fm only if the "synchronise Track Love to last.fm is enabled in the last.fm plugin preferences ie. without that being set, track love now only updates the musicbee database.
Artist biographies
Similar artists
As a fallback, spotify is also used for similar artists if none are found on last.fm or last.fm is failing
As a fallback wikipedia is used if last.fm artist biography fails - however wikipedia is not ideal as its not specifically focused on music/ artists and i am expecting there will be some cases of rubbish results
For artist thumbnails, fanart.tv is still used but as a fallback, spotify is used
For artist pictures, fanart.tv is still used, now along with Wikipedia and Google. The results from google can be great or can be unrelated for some artist names so you can disable google in the Now Playing panel settings
The last.fm cloud tagging is removed
For auto-tag by album, spotify is used where last.fm was used for genres

Changelog

Duplicate filter:

Duplicate action options no longer handle file deletion
Renamed 'not duplicates' across the program to 'not related' or 'false positive'
'alternates' and 'not related/false positive' duplicate actions no longer have duplicate action options. no merge content update now occurs on these actions
The duplicate filter hover panel now splits 'this is better' decisions into two buttons--whether to delete or keep the worse file
When selecting 'custom action' in the duplicate filter hover panel, it now asks if you would like to delete the current file, the other file, or both
The 'duplicate_filter_this_is_better' shortcut action will be auto-updated to 'duplicate_filter_this_is_better_and_delete_other'. an alternate 'duplicate_filter_this_is_better_but_keep_both' is now also available
The 'duplicate_filter_not_dupes' shortcut action will be auto-updated to 'duplicate_filter_false_positive'
Separated the buttons on the duplicate filter hover panel to more carefully split 'yes, files are duplicates' vs other decisions
In prep for the duplicate db overhaul, refactored all PHash search code and Duplicate management code apart
Misc other prep work for duplicate db overhaul

File maintenance:

Wrote a new unified manager to handle various long-term file maintenance tasks like regenerating file metadata and thumbnails
Options to govern how this manager can run are now in options->maintenance and processing. you can enable it for idle and shutdown maintenance time and give it a throttle to limit how fast it will work on files, defaulting to 200 per day
Unified the previous db-level attempts at file maintenance to the new system, which supports async job queueing, and moving regen code up to the new manager, out of the db lock
Unified a variety of file and thumbnail regen code to work through the new simpler and saner path
The right-click->regen thumbnail commands now run through the new manager and no longer need a modal popup. you can keep browsing while they work. they will also not hang the ui as the old system could on big jobs
When right-click->regenning on more than 50 thumbnails, you now get a dialog asking if you want to do the job now or put it off later
File maintenance tasks can now run in shutdown time! you will get previews of the jobs with file counts and status progress reports on the shutdown splash
Cleaned up some file extension renaming and dupe-removing code
In future, I will move the current file integrity check to this new system and have some ui to prompt and set up other big jobs, like fixing various historical misparsing issues
Thumbnail resizing during thumbnail fade that resizes down is now more efficient
Moved the ClientFilesManager to ClientFiles.py

The rest:

The 'manage upnp' dialog now moves the duplicated external ip display from the column up to the status text at the top. it fetches the ip after the initial mappings fetch is done. this ip is no longer affected by the external host override option
Cleaned up options->connection page and removed the now defunct external host override option
The manage services page for the local booru now has optional override for scheme, host, and port for the 'copy external url' function
Fixed an issue with the recent 'collect by' session saving where a restored session that needed a collect was not sorted
Fixed an issue with collections being sorted by approx bitrate
Added a new checkbox to options->sort/collect to set it so the default sort updates every time you choose a new sort anywhere
Fixed an issue with 'remove trashed files from view', which was incorrectly removing on 'all local files' pages
The 'all local files' file domain, which is frequently confusing to new users, is now no longer an option for new file pages or the autocomplete file domain if the user is not in advanced mode
The client now searches for versions of urls both with and without a final '/' character when looking up file url import status at the db level and in import lists. system:known_url is unfortunately still an inefficient mess
Improved how the server code deals with some connectionLost errors
Cleaned up and unified some older dialog button code
Fixed a problem in manage tag siblings when petitioning existing pairs and then cancelling when asked for a reason
Fixed a miscount issue when uploading pending tags while many new tags are coming in. progress would sometimes be -754/1,234, ha ha
Db maintenance, repository sync, and file maintenance processing will all now wake on a force idle mode call
Deleted some old code
Misc fixes and cleanup
Some misc gui layout fixes

Changelog

    Duplicates important:

    Duplicates 'false positive' and 'alternates' pairs are now stored in a new more efficient structure that is better suited for larger groups of files
    Alternate relationships are now implicitly transitive--if A is alternate B and A is alternate C, B is now alternate C
    False positive relationships remain correctly non-transitive, but they are now implicitly shared amongst alternates--if A is alternate B and A is false positive with C, B is now false positive with C. and further, if C alt D, then A and B are implicitly fp D as well!
    Your existing false positive and alternates relationships will be migrated on update. alternates will apply first, so in the case of conflicts due to previous non-excellent filtering workflow, formerly invalid false positives (i.e. false positives between now-transitive alternates) will be discarded. invalid potentials will also be cleared out
    Attempting to set a 'false positives' or 'alternates' relationship to files that already have a conflicting relation (e.g. setting false positive to two files that already have alternates) now does nothing. in future, this will have graceful failure reporting
    The false positive and alternate transitivity clears out potential dupes at a faster rate than previously, speeding up duplicate filter workflow and reducing redundancy on the human end
    Unfortunately, as potential and better/worse/same pairs have yet to be updated, the system may report that a file has the same alternate as same quality partner. this will be automatically corrected in the coming weeks
    When selecting 'view this file's duplicates' from thumbnail right-click, the focus file will now be the first file displayed in the next page

    Duplicates boring details:

    Setting 'false positive' and 'alternates' status now accounts for the new data storage, and a variety of follow-on assumptions and transitive properties (such as implying other false positive relationships or clearing out potential dupes between two groups of merging alternates) are now dealt with more rigorously (and moreso when I move the true 'duplicate' file relationships over)
    Fetching file duplicate status counts, file duplicate status hashes, and searching for system:num_dupes now accounts for the new data storage r.e. false positives and alternates
    New potential dupes are culled when they conflict with the new transitive alternate and false positive relationships
    Removed the code that fudges explicit transitive 'false positive' and 'alternate' relationships based on existing same/better/worse pairs when setting new dupe pairs. this temporary gap will be filled back in in the coming weeks (clearing out way more potentials too)
    Several specific advanced duplicate actions are now cleared out to make way for future streamlining of the filter workflow:
    Removed the 'duplicate_media_set_false_positive' shortcut, which is an action only appropriate when viewing confirmed potentials through the duplicate filter (or after the ' show random pairs' button)
    Removed the 'duplicate_media_remove_relationships' shortcut and menu action ('remove x pairs ... from the dupes system'), which will return as multiple more precise and reliable 'dissolve' actions in the coming weeks
    Removed the 'duplicate_media_reset_to_potential' shortcut and menu action ('send the x pairs ... to be compared in the duplicates filter') as it was always buggy and lead to bloating of the filter queue. it is likely to return as part of the 'dissolve'-style reset commands as above
    Fixed an issue where hitting 'duplicate_media_set_focused_better' shortcut with no focused thumb would throw an error
    Started proper unit tests for the duplicates system and filled in the phash search, basic current better/worse, and false positive and alternate components
    Various incidences of duplicate 'action options' and similar phrasing are now unified to 'metadata merge options'
    Cleaned up 'unknown/potential' phrasing in duplicate pair code and some related duplicate filter code
    Cleaned up wording and layout of the thumbnail duplicates menu

    The rest:

    Tag blacklists in downloaders' tag import options now apply to the parsed tags both before and after a tag sibling collapse. it uses the combined tag sibling rules, so feedback on how well this works irl would be appreciated
    I believe I fixed the annoying issue where a handful of thumbnails would sometimes inexplicitly not fade in after during thumbgrid scrolling (and typically on first thumb load--this problem was aggravated by scroll/thumb-render speed ratio)
    When to-be-regenerated thumbnails are taken off the thumbnail waterfall queue due to fast scrolling or page switching, they are now queued up in the new file maintenance system for idle-time work!
    The main gui menus will now no longer try to update while they are open! uploading pending tags while lots of new tags are coming in is now much more reliable. let me know if you discover a way to get stuck in this frozen state!
    Cleaned up some main gui menu regeneration code, reducing the total number of stub objects created and deleted, particularly when the 'pending' menu refreshes its label frequently while uploading many pending tags. should be a bit more stable for some linux flavours
    The 'fix siblings and parents' button on manage tags is now a menu button with two options--for fixing according to the 'all services combined' siblings and parents or just for the current panel's service. this overrides the 'apply sibs/parents across all services' options. this will be revisited in future when more complicated sibling application rules are added
    The 'hide and anchor mouse' check under 'options->media' is no longer windows-only, if you want to test it, and the previous touchscreen-detecting override (which unhid and unanchored on vigorous movement) is now optional, defaulting to off
    Greatly reduced typical and max repository pre-processing disk cache time and reworked stop calculations to ensure some work always gets done
    Fixed an issue with 'show some random dupes' thumbnails not hiding on manual trashing, if that option is set. 'show some random dupes' thumbnail panels will now inherit their file service from the current duplicate search domain
    Repository processing will now never run for more than an hour at once. this mitigates some edge-case disastrous ui-hanging outcomes and generally gives a chance for hydrus-level jobs like subscriptions and even other programs like defraggers to run even when there is a gigantic backlog of processing to do
    Added yet another CORS header to improve Client API CORS compatibility, and fixed an overauthentication problem
    Setting a blank string on the new local booru external port override option will now forego the host:port colon in the resultant external url. a tooltip on the control repeats this
    Reworded and coloured the pause/play sync button in review services repository panel to be more clear about current paused status
    Fixed a problem when closing the gui when the popup message manager is already closed by clever OS-specific means
    Misc code cleanup
    Updated sqlite on windows to 3.28.0
    Updated upnpc exe on windows to 2.1

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

    Duplicates:

    Retuned the new alternate and false positive setting code to be less aggressive about removing potential pairs. users with alternate groups who updated to 354 may have lost some intra-alternate potential pairs, which I expect to fill back in once the potential pairs system is updated
    The duplicate filter center-right hover window now has a trash button, which is moved to its own row with the cog icon where they will fit on thinner windows better
    Users who are in advanced mode now have access to duplicate merge options for 'alternates' again--but be careful with this, it is advanced. if you had merge options for alternates set up before, your old options should return, but make sure to check it
    If you are in advanced mode, the duplicate filter can now show an experimental jpeg quality comparison statement. if this works out, I will add custom scores and improve this otherwise based on feedback , so comments would be appreciated

    Client api:

    The client api has a new 'manage pages' permission!
    /manage_pages/get_pages now fetches a structure of the current page session! there's some help for it
    In future, I expect to add a 'select page' command and get/remove/highlight URL(s) for downloader pages, and reveal the unique page identifier for better targeting here and for add_url commands
    Client api is now version 7

    The rest:

    Fixed a stupid issue related to drawing collection thumbnails that was causing a lot of errors. I apologise for the inconvenience and have added pre-build tests to catch these simple mistakes in future
    Added a clipboard url watcher! there are two options now under network->downloaders--one for watcher urls, and one for all other recognised urls (i.e. post and gallery urls, and file urls that have matching url classes). it checks every second, sends urls to pages according to the same rules as a drag and drop event, and will handle newline-separated lists of urls
    When the client is minimised and needs to create a new downloader page because of an 'add url' command through this new clipboard watcher or the client api, it will now queue up the url and its page creation for when the client is next restored (page creation while minimized causes layout bugs). it returns an appropriate result text to the client api in this case
    Added four 'show_and_focus_manage_tags_XXX' shortcuts to the 'main_gui' shortcut set that let you select and focus the four possible suggested tags panels on the manage tags dialog. these are slightly special focus events that do some 'first tag selection' work as well and should let you make the whole process keyboard-only
    Added a 'focus_media_viewer' shortcut to the 'main_gui' shortcut set that focuses the media viewer from a media viewer's manage tags window
    File viewing statistics gets an update: it now has its own options page where you can set min/max for preview and media viewing times. the global turn on/off control is moved from database menu to this page, as is a new control for enabling it on the duplicate filter (where you will be flicking back and forth and perhaps do not want lots of views recorded). duplicate filter file stats now default to disabled
    Added a new command to database->file viewing statistics that will cull your current stats based on the new min/max values to compensate for previous accidental '3day 4hour' preview view that snuck in. a yes/no dialog explains how it works before it goes
    Wrote a 'mixin' class to let my buttons automatically note current shortcut mapping information to the bottom of button tooltips
    The duplicate commands and a variety of other media viewer buttons that work in the new shortcut system now report their current shortcuts in their tooltips!
    Quick-entering 'namespace:' in a search page's tag autocomplete input will now automatically swap in the special 'namespace:anything' predicate
    Cleaned up code around setting a custom temp_dir through the "temp_dir" command, and made it test the given path is indeed a directory and writable-to. if not, the program dumps out with an error popup
    The client and server now similarly test that the directory db is a dir and writable-to
    Rearranged some critical boot error handling code and made the client's boot error handling throw up some ui
    Fixed the client's repairdb function when needing to regen autocomplete caches
    Autocomplete regen now publishes status updates to the splash screen
    Fixed the client's repairdb to wait correctly for the ui in case the user wants to bail before repair
    The client's repair db now repairs the new local_tags_cache table if missing
    Fixed an issue with showing the manage logins panel when the domain had some unusual cookie expiry numbers

If you frequently work with large numbers of video files, you probably know how difficult it is to find what you need without watching every single clip. Thankfully, there are various types of applications that can help you out.

Scene Explorer is one of them, a fairly simple utility that generates thumbnails for every video in a directory, making it easier for you to see their contents without actually playing them.

Changelog

    Duplicates:

    Moved better/worse/same quality duplicates relationships to the new 'king' group-based model. rather than tracking every relationship, duplicates are now stored in groups with a single 'best' file
    As a result, duplicate relationships are now transitive! saying that one king is duplicate to another will merge groups. the 'better' king is the new king, and 'same quality' kings choose one of the kings pseudorandomly. advanced exceptions: saying that a king is better than a basic member of another group or saying that two members are same quality is still valid but will simply 'poach' the non-king member from the other group in order to ensure the wrong king doesn't end up on top in the eventual merge. saying KingA is same quality as MemberB will merge the groups with KingB as the new king (since it is presumably same/better quality to all members of A)
    The thumbnail right-click 'duplicates' entry is now renamed to 'file relationships' and is no longer advanced mode only. the 'find similar files' entry is folded into this
    The thumbnail 'file relationships' menu now shows a simple 'duplicates' count rather than the old messy better/worse/equal. it will show all the members of a duplicates group when clicked. the menu also notes if the focused file is the best file of its group. if it is not, you will get the option to show the best file or make the focused file the best
    As a result, it is now much simpler to view a group of duplicates and overrule a 'best quality' member as needed
    Added the 'media' shortcut 'duplicate_media_set_focused_king' to shortcut setting a 'best quality' file
    The system:num duplicate relationships now has the simpler 'duplicates' entry, to search on size of the entire group. searching for kings/not kings will come soon
    Due to the new duplicate transitivity rules, potential pairs are now eliminated at a much faster rate!
    Setting duplicate relationships will overrule false positive or alternate relationships already in place
    Manually setting alternate relationships to more than two thumbnails at once will now set each file as alternate to every other file in the selection, completely eliminating potential pairs within the group. if you try to do this to large groups of files you will get a longer yes/no confirmation message just to make sure you aren't overwriting some potential dupes by accident
    All existing better/worse/same relationships will be converted to the new group storage in this update, with appropriate kings determined. potential pair queue counts will be reduce accordingly, and the temporary alternate/duplicate confusion from the alternates update will be auto-resolved by merging truly duplicate 'alternates' together
    Fleshed out the duplicate test code significantly to handle the new dupe groups and their interactions with the recent false positive and alternates changes
    Refactored some db test code into separate client/server/duplicates files and cleaned up dupe tests readability
    Potential pairs are now the only component of the new system still on the old pairs system. the duplicate filter will still serve up some inefficient (i.e. non-king) comparisons

    The rest:

    Fixed the issue where many clipboard-watcher-caught URLs that did not match were producing false-positive 'could not generate new page for that URL' error popups
    The clipboard text-fetcher now tests against incompatible clipboard types (like a screenshot) better, and all instances of text fetching now report errors more gracefully and with more information
    Fixed the unusual OS X issue where many shortcuts were not being processed after client boot until the top menubar was opened and closed. a variety of other blocking-while-menubar-is-open issues that were false-positive misfiring are now fixed as well, please let me know if you still have trouble here
    The file menu now has an 'exit and force shutdown maintenance' option to force-run outstanding maintenance jobs
    When shutdown maintenance work is going on, the shutdown splash screen now has a 'stop shutdown maintenance' button!
    Cleaned up some file maintenance manager maintenance locking and shutdown cancel logic
    Moved all the idle-mode maintenance checks to a new system that explicitly defines idle/shutdown/forced maintenance work and tests those states in a unified manner, checking idle mode and the new splash cancel button status and so on more reliably. a lot of maintenance should cancel out quicker when appropriate
    Misc shutdown logic cleanup
    Added a 'file maintenance' option to the database->maintenance menu that forces the new file maintenance manager to run its queue. it'll make a little popup as it works, or a note that no work is due
    The 'regenerate' thumbnail menu is also available to all users
    Jpeg quality estimates are now available for all users in the duplicate filter. they only display when the two jpegs' quality have different labels
    The jpeg quality estimator now handles some unusual jpegs that load with empty quantization table arrays
    The duplicate filter now handles bad jpeg quality estimations gracefully
    Cleaned up some ffmpeg communication code
    The ffmpeg debug text that spawns on a help->about call that fails to discover ffmpeg version information now prints stderr output as well. if you have been hit by this, please give it another go and let me know what you get
    The same ffmpeg 'no response' error on file parse now popups and prints some debug info and returns a better error
    Dialogs and windows on the new panel system now support a new pre-close tidying system
    The manage tags dialog and window will now cancel any pending large tag autocomplete queries on close
    Regular gui pages now support a new pre-close tidying system
    Search pages will now cancel any pending search results loading or tag autocomplete queries on close
    Improved reliability of the popup message manager chasing the main gui when it is sent to another screen by a keyboard shortcut (such as shift+win+arrow on Windows). it should work now if the mouse cursor is in either window. please let me know if this causes trouble for virtual display navigation
    The network engine now waits significantly longer--60s--on connection errors before trying again, and with every failed attempt will wait n times longer again. when in this waiting state, a manual user cancel command cancels it out faster
    I believe I have fixed/improved a situation where media viewer hover windows would sometimes disappear immediately after appearing on some Linux window managers
    Improved hover window report mode to state more focus info in case the above is insufficient
    To better link the two requests and consume bandwidth under strict rules more precisely, the override bandwidth rule that kicks in when a file page has a single file is now 3 seconds instead of 30
    Updated options->connection page to specify that 'socks4a'/'socks5h' is needed to force remote dns resolution
    Sped up tag parents initialisation
    Repositories now group tag sibling and parent petitions by the parent/better tag's namespace
    Removed some old network 'death time' code that is no longer useful and was interfering with heavy petition processing
    The log now flushes itself to disk every 60s rather than 300s
    Misc fixes and cleanup

    Client api:

    The client api can now receive the access key through a GET or POST parameter rather than the header
    The client api now supports GET /session_key, which provides a temporary key that gives the same access as its permanent access key with the Hydrus-Client-API-Session-Key name through header or GET/POST param. it expires after 24 hours of inactivity or if the client is restarted
    The GET /manage_pages/get_pages call now returns the unique 'page_key' identifier that will be useful in future page management when multiple pages share a name
    The POST /add_urls/add_url command now takes 'destination_page_key' to exactly specify which page you would like a URL to end up on. if the page is not found, or it is the incorrect type, the standard page selection/creation rules will apply
    Cleaned up some serverside request processing code
    Cleaned up some misc client api permission checking code
    Updated client unit tests to check the new changes
    Updated client api help to reflect the new changes
    Cleaned up some GET and POST parameter parsing
    Client api version is now 8

    Shortcut and hover window fixes:

    Moved the canvas shortcut processing code more towards the new shortcut system
    The OS X shortcut-in-media-viewer issue, which was being boshed in a similar way to the main gui last week, should now be fixed
    When the hover windows have focus, they now pass shortcuts up to the canvas parent more reliably
    Removed a legacy menu highlight-tracking system that was malfunctioning and generally throwing a slow-memory-leaking wrench in several places, particularly some non-Windows situations
    The 'menubar is open' test code is now only active for Windows. the other platforms have mixed reliability with menubar open/close events
    Some related OS X hover-window flickering and hiding-under the main page problems (having problems due to thinking menus were open) are also fixed
    Some hover window flicker on certain focus changes due to clicking focus windows should be fixed
    Hover windows now try to size themselves a little better on init, which reduces some initial flicker or false-positive single-frame display on some systems
    Extended the hover report mode to report some 'ideal' pos/size info as well
    Under file->shortcuts, custom shortcuts are now hidden for non-advanced-mode users

    The rest:

    The popup message toaster now always shows its 'dismiss all' summary bar whenever any messages are being displayed. the summary bar now also has a ▼/▲ button to collapse/expand its messages!
    Added duplicate comparison score options (under options->duplicates) for the new jpeg quality estimator
    Fixed the default duplicate comparison score values, which appeared to be reversed for higher vs much higher--they will be reset to these new defaults on update, so recheck them if you prefer different
    In manage tag siblings and parents, the filename tagging dialog, and some misc options panels, tag autocomplete input controls now have 'paste' buttons to make entering many results much easier
    To reduce update flicker, the downloader and watcher pages do not list seconds in their 'added' column ('12 minutes 24 seconds ago' is now '12 minutes ago')
    Improved clipboard access cleanup on in-clipboard errors, which was sometimes leading to error popups or clipboard lockup
    Rather than the simple 'yes', the review bandwidth usage dialog now puts the waiting estimate (like '12 minutes 50 seconds') in the 'blocked?' column
    Improved external program launch code for non-Windows to remove hydrus-specific LD_LIBRARY_PATH completely when no OS default exists to restore it to. this should fix ffmpeg connection for certain installs
    Fixed a rare bug when initial media results of a page failed to load due to a subset of unexpectedly unfetchable file records
    Gave the rare 'ui freezup on dialog close' event yet another pass. closing via escape key should now be immune to this
    'remote' files that were once in the client but since deleted now have the 'trashed' icon and will state so on their right-click info summary lines
    Fixed various instances where selection-from-list dialogs were failing to sort their list based on underlying data object uncomparibility. an example of this was when selecting which queries to pull from a separating subscription
    On the edit parser panels, fetching test data successfully via the quick button or the manual URL entry will now set that URL in the example parsing context
    On the edit parser panels, the subsidiary page parser's separation formula now launches with the correct example data (the original data from the parent dialog, rather than the post-separated data) on which to test separation. this should nest correctly for multiple subsidiary page parsers
    To reduce server load spikes, clientside petition processing now approves very large mapping and file petitions (such as a petition to delete one tag from 50k files) as a sequence of smaller chunks

    duplicates:

    the final large data storage overhaul work of the duplicates work big job is done--potential duplicate information is now stored more sensibly and efficiently. potential pair information is now stored between duplicate file groups, rather than files themselves. when duplicate file groups are merged, or alternate or false positive relationships set, potentials are merged and culled appropriately
    your existing potential data will be updated. the current potential pairs queue size will shrink as duplicate potential relationships are merged
    the duplicate filter now presents file kings as comparison files when possible, increasing pair difference and decision value
    potential pair information is now stored with the 'distance' between the two files as found by the similar-files search system. the duplicate filter will serve files with closer distance first, which increases decision value by front-loading likely duplicates instead of alts. distance values for existing potential pair info is estimated on update, so if you have done search distance 2 or greater and would like to fill in this data accurately to get closer potentials first, you might like to reset your potential duplicates under the cog icon (bear in mind this reset will schedule a decent whack of CPU for your idle maintenance time)
    setting alternate relationship on a pair is now fixed more concretely, ensuring that in various search expansions or resets that the same pair will not come up again. this solves some related problems users have had trying to 'fix' larger alternate groups in place--you may see your alternates compared one last time, but that should be the final go. these fixed relationships are merged as intra-alternate group members merge due to duplicate-setting events
    a variety of potential duplicates code has been streamlined based on the new duplicate group relationship
    improved how a second-best king representative of a group is selected in various file relationship fetching jobs when the true king is not permitted by search domain
    one critical part of the new potential duplicates system is more complicated. if you experience much slower searches or count retrievals IRL, please let me know your details
    expanded duplicates unit tests to test potential counts for all tested situations
    fixed a bug where alternate group merging would not cull now-invalid false-positive potential pairs

    the rest:

    updated the default pixiv parser to work with their new format--thank you to a user for providing this fix
    fixed the issue where mouse scroll events were not being processed by the main viewer canvas when it did not have focus
    file page parsers that produce multiple urls through subsidiary page parsers now correctly pass down associated urls and tags to their child file import items
    updated to wx 4.0.6 on all built platforms--looks like a bunch of bug fixes, so fingers-crossed this improves some stability and jank
    updated the recent server access-key-arg-parsing routine to check access from the header before parsing args, which fixes an issue with testing decompression bomb permission on file POST requests on the file repository. generally improved code here to deal more gracefully with failures
    the repositories now max out at 1000 count when fetching pending petition counts (speeding up access when there are large queues)
    the repositories now fetch petitions much faster when there are large queues
    frames and dialogs will be slightly more aggressive about ensuring their parents now get focus back when they are closed (rather than the top level main gui, which sometimes happens due to window manager weirdness)
    rewrote a bad old legacy method of refocusing the manage tags panel that kicks in when the 'open manage tags' action is processed by the media viewer canvas but the panel is already open
    hitting 'refresh account' on a paused service now gives a better immediate message rather than failing after delay on a confusing 'bad login' error
    improved login errors' text to specify the exact problem raised by the login manager
    fixed a problem in the duplicates page when a status update is called before the initial db status fetch is complete
    the manage tag siblings panel now detects if the pair you wish to add connects to a loop already in the database (which is a rare but possible case). previously it would hang indefinitely! it now cancels the add, communicates the tags in the loop, and recommends you break it manually
    added a link to https://github.com/cravxx/hydrus.js , a node.js module that plugs into the client api, to the help
    a variety of user-started network jobs such as refreshing account and testing a server connection under manage services now only attempt connection once (to fail faster as the user waits)
    the 'test address' job under manage services is now asynchronous and will not hang the ui while it waits for a response
    fixed some unstable thread-to-wx code under the 'test access key' job under manage services
    improved some file handling to ensure open files are closed more promptly in certain circumstances
    fixed some unstable thread-to-wx communication in the ipfs review services panel
    improved the accuracy of the network engine's 'incomplete download' test and bandwidth reporting to work with exact byte counts when available, regardless of content encoding. downloads that provide too few bytes in ways that were previously not caught will be reattempted according to the normal connection reattempt rules. these network fixes may solve some broken jpegs and json some users have seen from unreliable servers
    fixed watcher entries in the watcher page list not reporting their file and check download status as they work (as the gallery downloader does)
    the client api will now deliver cleaner 400 errors when a given url argument is empty or otherwise fails to normalise (previously it was giving 500s)

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

    Ipfs nocopy:

    Wrote a new panel to better show ipfs daemon status and added it to the review and manage ipfs service panels
    Added nocopy config review and enable status and buttons to this new panel
    Added an EXPERIMENTAL 'use nocopy' checkbox to the ipfs manage services panel
    Added accompanying WEWLAD path translation ui to enable nocopy when your hydrus media storage paths are inaccessible to the ipfs daemon for nocopy purposes. a help button explains this more--it currently needs some symlinking, so non-advanced users should stay away
    If everything is set up, ipfs nocopy seems to work! I am not totally happy about the setup required here, so feedback from advanced ipfs-fluent users would be appreciated and we can iterate on this
    Improved stability of ipfs daemon/version checking code

    File maintenance:

    Wrote some proper file maintenance ui under database->maintain->review scheduled file maintenance!
    For existing work, the new file maintenance ui shows how much work is scheduled for each job type and lets you cancel that work or run it manually
    For new work, the new file maintenance ui lets you queue up work of any type for files you select with the standard tag autocomplete search interface! you can schedule all pngs to be rescanned in case they are truly apngs, or regen thumbs for all files imported before a certain date, or whatever you wish. you can also queue up repository update files
    The file maintenance manager can now deal with repository update files when it does a complete file metadata regen
    The file maintenance manager now takes responsibility for checking file presence and file integrity. the old 'check file integrity' options under database->maintenance, which did all files in one go, are now gone
    File integrity checks will now always export broken files and missing/broken files' known urls to .txt files to your db_dir/missing_and_invalid_files. appropriate popups and log data will be sent as well. also, the known urls will be both exported on a per-file .txt basis and appended to one unified .txt
    If a file now fails to parse on a metadata reparse, it is now automatically checked for file data integrity
    If a repository encounters a missing, invalid, or incorrect filetype update during update processing, it now schedules all updates in the repo to be appropriately rescanned by the file maintenance manager
    If the storage subdirectory directory does not exist on a client file path request or thumbnail-add attempt, a special error will now be raised with instructions to reconnect the location or shut the client down immediately
    Cleaned up some ffmpeg mime-detection logspam

    Duplicates:

    Added several single-file thumbnail right-click dissolve/reset duplicate actions:

    Reset search status
    Remove from duplicate group (if in one and not the king)
    Dissolve duplicate group (if in a group)
    Remove from alternate group (if in one)
    Dissolve alternate group (if in one)
    Clear false-positive relations (if it has some)
    Added some new code to deal with dissolution and member extraction at the db level
    When a member is extracted from alternate group, its constituent files are now requeued for potential search
    Multi-selection duplicate right-click actions are now available to non-advanced-mode users
    Wrote some unit tests for the new dissolve/reset actions
    Cleaned up some misc duplicates code

    The rest:

    Fixed a recent bug in the file lookup script GET call--I apologise for the mistake
    The main gui page tab menu now lets you sort page tabs by the number of files they have
    Deviant art seem to be rolling out a new page format. this week hydrus introduces completely new deviant art downloader objects that, fingers crossed, will update any existing users smoothly and also provide new tag search functionality. users who are still logged in may still be getting the old page format. if this is you, and this update does not work (although I think it should, even so), please try clearing your existing login and logging in again
    New deviant art login script, artist + tag GUGs, gallery url classes, file and gallery parsers
    Updated the shimmie file page parser to pull source time and md5
    Improved the 'process now' advanced button to only focus on actual specific outstanding processing. previously, it was also checking for new metadata when due, which, when the server was not available, could seemingly idle for a time before actually processing updates due to the new delaying connection retry code
    Wrote a new 'file import report mode' mode to help->debug->report modes
    Fixed a progress display issue with the janitorial petitions processing page
    Improved accuracy of sibling and parent petition counts, and properly capped them at 1000
    Mapping petitions are now grouped by namespace, and will come in more manageable chunks
    Fixed the server launch-and-init test debug code
    Misc string-to-string control improvements to support the new ipfs edit ui
    Removed the old 'continual tag archive sync' legacy code from tag services, which has been semi/non-functional for a long time
    Cleaned up the annoying separator hanging on the end of certain tag right-click menus
    Cleared out the 'Exception ignored in' spam that is often printed after the log closes

Changelog

    Tag autocomplete:

    After various tag autocomplete async work, fetch timings get a complete overhaul this week. the intention is for a/c jobs to appear as fast as possible, with good ui feedback, without interrupting ui while they work. feedback on how this works IRL would be appreciated
    There are now just two autocomplete options under options->speed and memory:
    Whether autocomplete results are ever fetched automatically, defaults to true
    The max number of characters in the input that will cause just exact results vs. full autocomplete results, defaults to 2, can be None
    Namespaces are no longer searched from an unnamespaced query ('char' no longer matches 'character:samus aran'). this proved too slow for real use, and remains better available with explicit namespace searches such as 'character:' or 'char:*'
    The 'exact results' character limit now also applies to subtags of namespace searches! so, entering 'character:a' will deliver the same short exact match results as just 'a'--no more gigantic lists when you put in a simple namespace
    Improved tag results caching to deal with the new non-namespace matching on subtag input
    Tag autocomplete dropdowns will now display a non-selectable 'loading results...' label when results take more than 200ms to load.
    Tag autocomplete dropdowns will now also display 'static' tags, such as 'namespace:anything' for 'read' inputs and the exact entered text and possible siblings/parents for 'write' inputs, during loading. so, typing 'character:' just to get the special 'character:anything' predicate is now simple and does not need a whole load wait to enter!
    Cleaned up some tag listbox code to handle parent selection and navigation better along with the new label type
    Greatly improved autocomplete search logic in the critical text search portion, collapsing it into one cleverer and more easily cancellable query rather than two or three simpler ones with potentially gigantic lists thrown back and forth
    Improved speed of autocomplete cancel for certain large lists with many siblings

    File maintenance:

    The new file maintenance ui now shows scheduled jobs in a listctrl, and only shows jobs that have outstanding work. you can clear/do work on multiple selected jobs
    The file manager should now try to guarantee at least 644 permission on file imports (previously, it was only trying to add 600, which lead to problems with nocopy ipfs running on another user etc...)
    Added a file maintenance job to check and fix file permissions
    Added a file maintenance job to regenerate similar files metadata
    Added a file maintenance job to check if a file should be in the similar files system--if it should and isn't, it is queued to get its metadata data regenerated, and if it is and shouldn't be, it is removed
    The previous bulky similar files metadata regen job from the duplicates page is now removed, and any outstanding scheduled regen will be transferred to the new file maintenance manager on update

    Client api:

    Added POST /manage_pages/focus_page, which makes the given page the current page in the main gui
    Added help and unit tests for this new call
    Client api is now version 9

    The rest:

    Fixed an issue recording media viewtimes when no max viewtime is set
    Fixed the new missingdirectory errors not printing the missing path
    Fixed an issue with some human-started repository actions waiting silently on bandwidth when it was not intended (e.g. account refresh)
    Export folders now raise proper errors and pause themselves if their path is not set, does not exist on the file system, or is not a directory (previously, they silently stopped work without error)
    Cleaned up some misc import folder code, and put in additional protections to the delete/move code to ensure folders cannot be so actioned if they somehow end up in the path import queue
    When unpinning a file or directory from ipfs, the clientside service now first checks that the current daemon considers it pinned (previously, this 500 errored when the object was not pinned due to a reinitialised daemon etc...)
    Fixed an issue with the new ipfs path translation control, which was forgetting values when the clientside path was outside of the default db structure
    Media objects that transition from trashed to physically deleted but remain in view will now correctly be aware of their complete previously-deleted status (rather than being simply remote, as they were before until a client restart)
    Improved some of the recent duplicates db update code to pre-optimise the new tables on update (some users were getting slow behaviour due to mis-scheduled analysis maintenance)
    Extended the new panel system to deal with custom button panels and moved the duplicate filter 'commit and continue?' dialog to the new panel system
    Moved the archive/delete and duplicate filter 'commit and finish' dialog to the new panel system
    Wrote a new question panel for the typical yes/no dialog used across the program and started a cleanup job to migrate all 140-odd instances of this over
    Fixed an issue where a program instance that quit due to a user deciding to leave an already running instance in place would clear the original instance's 'running' file in its shutdown, meaning subsequent runs would charge ahead and hit 'database is locked' problems on db init!
    Wrote a new 'similar files metadata generation report mode' to provide debug info on this cpu/gpu intensive routine
    Added 'why use sqlite?' entry to the help faq, with a link to prkc's excellent document about the subject, https://gitgud.io/prkc/hydrus-why-sqlite/blob/master/README.md
    Also added prkc's excellent Linux package requirements information to the 'running from source' help page
    Fixed some old py 2.7 references in running from source help and an old link in ipfs help
    Moved the 'file viewing statistics' menu down on the database menu
    Fixed some dialog Escape key event handling
    Fixed some ui ancestory testing code
    Improved some misc similar files system code

Changelog

    Duplicates:

    The duplicate filter now compares the pixel content of static image pairs of the same resolution--if they have the exact same pixels, a comparison statement is added, and if one file is a png and the other not (i.e. the png is likely a useless clipboard copy), the statement notes this and a strong duplicate score is applied
    Added 'system:is/is not best file of its group' to search for file kings
    Renamed 'system:num duplicate relationships' to 'system:num file relationships'
    Wrapped the two file relationship system predicates into one 'system:file relationships' stub predicate that opens to a dialog with two pred panels
    Added a 'add potential pairs' command to the thumbnail right-click file relationships menu, which will force-queue files for the duplicates filter
    The duplicate filter now ensures the two medias' zoom is locked so they have the same width through a transition. furthermore, their current dragged top-left position is pinned in the same location. this ensures files that have slightly different resolution ratios (especially when they are just a couple of pixels off) still remain reasonably comparable when switching back and forth
    Reworked and simplified how position/drag delta is handled in the media canvas to support the above
    Fixed the 'custom action' button on the duplicate filter, which had no 'delete neither' choice and whose 'forget it' button cancelled the whole custom operation, making it impossible to custom action without deleting something. I have added a 'delete neither' green-text button to the front, as the default action
    Mr bones now reports on your potential, duplicate, and alternates numbers

    Tag autocomplete:

    Greatly sped up tag autocomplete search when fetching from a current media view (i.e. from thumbnails in the search page)--it had some CPU-inefficient testing/counting that mattered at high media/tag counts
    Greatly improved cancelability of tag autocomplete search when pulling from a current media view--this was resulting in high lag when typing fast with multi-thousand results
    Fixed the gui-level tag matching test to match namespaced search inputs with offset subtags (e.g. 'character:aran' now matches 'character:samus aran'), both for wildcard and specific namespaces
    When typing an explicit wildcard tag search that does not end in a *, you will now be presented with two wildcard options--one with the implicit * suffix, one without
    Fixed 'write' tag autocomplete inputs (like in manage tags) being able to search for chunky 'namespace:*' explicit wildcard searches

    The rest:

    Fixed the ipfs nocopy path translation control saving rows for client file paths outside of the main install path for non-Windows, where it was forgetting on save
    Renamed 'system:size' to 'system:filesize'
    Sped up some system:inbox searches
    Disabled a PIL 'load truncated images' backup mode, which on the current version can seemingly lead to infinite load hangs
    File report mode now prints info when it deletes/recycles a path, including stack traces
    Fixed a long-running and silent 'port already running' bug related to setting services on the server that was stopping successful service-set-restart from the client in many situations. 'port is already running' checks that conflict with other processes will now give an immediate error to the client without saving any changes
    The server now prints to the log as it stops/starts/has started its services
    Improved how the server can report certain 500 errors
    The 'critical service tag/file reference' repository processing error has been improved: rather than reset the whole repository, it now pauses the repo and resets processing status for just the repo's 'definition' update files (without deleting any existing entries, so they should ultimately reprocess super fast) and also schedules a complete integrity and metadata check for all updated files
    Keyboard interrupts from the console should now trigger a clean exit request for the client
    Polite and forced shutdown requests when logging off should now trigger a fast exit (i.e. no yes/no dialog, no shutdown maintenance, but otherwise session saved and so on) for the client. this fast exit is noted in the log
    Moved the tag and rating service listctrls in duplicate merge options panel to the new listctrl object
    Moved the manage regex favourites listctrl to the new object
    Updated a bunch of yes/no dialogs to the new panel system
    Deleted some old unused dialog code and related unit tests
    Fixed up deletion-and-reimport file location handling for lingering media objects, which were not correctly forgetting combined local file deletion record on the reimport
    Improved shutdown error handling during repo processing
    Deleted the mishimmie default downloader

Cathy indexes files stored on removable media (CD's, DVD's or even diskettes), hard disks or net drives, to create searchable catalogs that can be used without having access to original media. The program is small, fast and easy-to-use with search capabilities based on file name, date, and size. Additional features include filtering options, search duplicates or singles, customizable date format, etc.

If files are available (external/network drive connected, DVD inserted) they can be opened (executed) or deleted directly. Other features include drag and drop support available, printing of both directory trees and MP3 album/song lists, and disk space usage analysis.

Changelog

    Duplicates work finished:

    Updated the duplicates help text and screenshots to reflect the new system
    Duplicate files search tree rebalancing is now done automatically on the normal idle maintenance routine, and its over-technical UI is removed from the duplicates page
    The duplicate filter's resolution comparison statement now specifies 480p, 720p, 1080p, and 4k resolutions and highlights resolutions with odd (i.e. non-even) numbers
    If the files are of different resolution, a new 'ratio' comparison statement will now show if either have a nice ratio, with current list 1:1, 4:3, 5:4, 16:9, 21:9, 2.35:1
    Added a 'stop filtering' button to the duplicate hover frame
    Made the ill-fitting 'X' button on top hover frame a stop button and cleaned up some misc related ui layout
    Added a 'remove this file's potential pairs' command to the thumbnail file relationships menu
    If in advanced mode, multiple thumbnail selection right-click menus' file relationships submenus will now offer mass remove/reset commands for the whole selection. available commands are: 'reset search', 'remove
potentials', 'dissolve dupe groups', 'dissolve alt groups', 'remove false positives'

    The rest:

    Added link to https://gitgud.io/koto/hydrus-dd/ , a neat neural net tagging library that uses the DeepDanbooru model and has several ways of talking to hydrus, to the client api help
    Cleaned up a little of the ipfs file download code, mostly improving error/cancel states
    Rewrote some ancient file repository file download code, which ipfs was also using when commanded to download via a remote thumbnail middle-click. this code and its related popup is now cleaner, cancellable, and session-based rather than saving download records to the db (which caused a couple of edge-case annoyances for certain clients). I think it will need a bit more work, but it is much saner than it was previously
    If you do not have the manage tags dialog set to add parents when you add tags, the autocomplete input will no longer expand parents in its results list
    Fixed an issue displaying the 'select a downloader' list when two GUGs have the same name
    Hitting apply on the manage parsers or url classes dialogs will now automatically do a 'try to link' action as under manage url class links
    Fixed (I think!) how the server services start, which was broken for some users in 361. furthermore, errors during initial service creation will now cancel the boot with a nice message, and the 'running ... ctrl+c' message will appear strictly after the services have started ok the first time, and services will shut down completely before the db is asked to stop
    Improved how the program recognises shutdowns right after boot errors, which should speed up clean shutdowns after certain bad server starts
    The server will use an existing server.crt and server.key pair if they exist on db creation, and complain nicely if only one is present
    The 'ensure file out of the similar files system' file maintenance job result will now automatically remove from/dissolve the file's duplicate group, if any, and clear out outstanding potential pairs
    A system language path translation error that was occuring in some unusual filesystems when checking for free disk space before big jobs is now handled better
    Like repository processing, there is now a 1 hour hard limit on any individual import folder run
    Fixed an issue where if a gallery url fetch produced faulty urls, it could sometimes invalidate the whole page with an error rather than just the bad file url items
    Subscriptions will now stop a gallery-page-results-urls-add action early if that one page produces 100 previously seen before urls in a row. this should fix the issue users were seeing with pixiv artist subs resyncing with much older urls that had previously been compacted out of the sub's cache
    Until we can get better asynch ui feedback for admin-level repository commands (lke fetching/setting account types), they now override bandwidth rules and only try the connection once for quicker responses
    Misc code cleanup

Beitrag von: SiLæncer am 08 August, 2019, 06:00
Changelog

    Has audio:

    Wrote a detection routine that can determine if a video has audio. it reads actual audio data and should be able to detect videos with a 'fake' silent audio track and consider them as not having audio
    Extended the client database, file import pipeline, and file metadata object to track the new has_audio value
    Flash files and audio files (like mp3) are considered to always have audio
    All 'maybe' audio files (atm this means video) are queued up for a file metadata reparse in the files maintenance manager. your existing videos will start off as not having audio, but once they are rescanned, they will get it. this is one of the first big jobs of the new maintenance system, and I expect it will need some different throttling rules to finish this job in reasonable time--by default it does 100 files a day, but if you have 50,000 videos, that's a long time!
    Files now show if they have audio in their info string that appears on thumbnail right-click or the top of the media viewer. it defaults to the unicode character 🔊, but can be edited under the new 'sound' options page
    Added a system:has audio predicate to search for files with/without audio
    Updated file import unit tests to check 'has audio' parsing, and added tests for system:has audio

    Client api:

    The /get_files/file_metadata call now provides has_audio info
    The /get_files/file_metadata call now provides known_urls!
    Added 'cookie management' permission
    Added /manage_cookies/get_cookies to get current cookies by domain
    Added /manage_cookies/set_cookies to set or clear current cookies
    Added/updated unit tests for the above
    Updated help for the above
    Client api version is now 10

    The rest:

    System:hash and system:similar to now accept multiple hashes! so, if you have 100 md5s, you can now search for them all at once
    The thumbnail right-click->file relationships->find similar files now works for multiple selections!
    When system:hash was just one hash, it would run before anything else and complete a search immediately on finding a match, but now it works like any other predicate, checking for file domain and ANDing with other predicates in the search
    The 'complete' file maintenance regen job now only does file metadata, not a complete thumb regen. its name and labels are updated to reflect this, and any existing job in the system will get the separate thumb regen job
    The file maintenance manager now has a couple of how-to sentences at the top, and a new 'see description' button will talk more about each job type
    The login script testing system now uses a duplicate of the existing domain manager (rather than a fresh empty one), so it will inherit current http headers such as default User-Agent, the lacking of which was messing up some tests
    Fixed the login script testing system not showing downloaded data
    Subscriptions with multiple queries now publish the files they have imported as soon as each query has finished, rather than waiting for the whole sub to be done
    Subscriptions now publish the files they have imported to page/popup even if they have an error
    Added 9:16, 2:3, and 4:5 to the duplicate comparison statement system, for various vertical social media types
    The autocomplete tag search 'read', which appears on places like search pages, should now more reliably accept the current entered text when there are no search results yet to show
    The autocomplete tag search 'write', which appears on places like the manage tags dialog, should now correctly accept the input (including appropriate sibling-collapse) when you select a 'stub' result while other results are still loading, rather than broadcasting the exact current text
    Fixed the deviant art file page parser to get source time--however the login script may now be broken/unreliable
    Fixed a missing dialog import when deleting a string transformation
    Reduced the base network connection error reattempt time to 10s (from 60s). there will be more work here in future
    Network jobs that are waiting on a connection error now have a reattempt wait override option in their cog icon menus
    The post-bad-shutdown 'open your default session or a blank page' dialog will now auto-choose to open your default session in 15 seconds
    A variety of ui-update events will now not fire as long as the main gui is minimised. as well as saving a sliver of resources, I believe this may fix an issue where long-running subscriptions and other import pipelines could sometimes put the ui in an unrecoverable state due to too many thumb-fade etc... events when the currently focused page was receiving new files while the main gui was minimised
    Maybe fixed a rare problem with deleting old pages
    Cleaned some misc code

Manage large media collections and re-organize them using tags instead of folders that you can share via custom servers with this application.

The Unlicense

Changelog

    Repo processing makeover:

    Repository processing is now no longer a monolithic atomic database job! it now loads update files at a 'higher' level and streams packets of work to the database without occupying it continuously! hence, repository processing no longer creates a 'modal' popup that blocks the client--you can keep browsing while it works, and it won't hang up the client!
    This new system runs on some different timings. in this first version, it will have lower rows/s in some situations and higher in others. please send me feedback if your processing is running significantly slower than before and I will tweak how this new routine decides to work and take breaks
    Multiple repos can now sync at once, ha ha
    Shutdown repository processing now states the name of the service being processed and x/y update process in the exit splash screen
    The process that runs after repository processing that re-syncs all the open thumbnails' tags now works regardless of the number of thumbnails open and works asynchronously, streaming new tag managers in a way that will not block the main thread
    'process now' button on review services is now available to all users and has a reworded warning text
    The 1 hour limit on a repo processing job is now gone
    Pre-processing disk cache population is tentatively gone--let's see how it goes
    The 10s db transaction time is raised to 30s. this speed some things up, including the new repo processing, but if a crash occurs, hydrus may now lose up to 30s of changes before the crash

    The rest:

    Users in advanced mode now have a 'OR' button on their serch autocomplete input dropdown panels. this button opens a new panel that plugs into prkc's neat raw-text -> CNF parser, which allows you to enter raw-text searches such as '( blue eyes and blonde hair ) or ( green eyes and red hair )' into hydrus
    Fixed the silent audio track detection code, which was handling a data type incorrectly
    Improved the silent audio track detection code to handle another type of silence, thank you to the users who submitted examples--please send more false positives if you find them
    Fixed an issue where thumbnails that underwent a file metadata regeneration were not appearing to receive content updates (such as archive, or new tags/ratings) until a subsequent reload showed they had happened silently. this is a long-time bug, but the big whack of files added to the files maintenance system last week revealed it
    The 'pause ui update cycles while main gui is minimised' change from last week now works on a per-frame basis. if the main gui is minimised, media viewers that are up will still run videos and so on, and vice versa
    A few more ui events (e.g. statusbar & menubar updates) no longer occur while the client is minimised
    Duplicate processing pages will now only initialise and refresh their maintenance and dupe count numbers while they are the current page. this should speed up session load for heavy users and those with multiple duplicate pages open
    Gave the new autocomplete 'should broadcast the current text' tests another pass--it should be more reliable now broadcasting 'blue eyes' in the up-to-200ms window where the stub/full results for, say, 'blue ey' are still in
    Fixed an accidental logical error that meant 'character:'-style autocomplete queries could do a search and give some odd results, rather than just 'character:anything'. a similar check is added to the 'write' autocomplete
    Fixed an issue with autocomplete not clearing its list properly, defaulting back to the last cached results, when it wants to fetch system preds but cannot due to a busy db
    Fixed GET-argument gallery searches for search texts that include '&', '=', '/', or '?' (think 'panty_&_stocking_with_garterbelt')
    Removed the pixiv login script from the defaults--apparently they have added a captcha, so using Hydrus Companion with the Client API is now your best bet
    The client's petition processing page will now prefer to fetch the same petition type as the last completed job, rather than always going for the top type with non-zero count
    The client's petition processing page now has options to sort parent or sibling petitions by the left side or right--and it preserves check status!
    The client's petition processing page now sorts tags by namespace first, then subtag
    The client now starts, restarts, and stops port-hosted services using the same new technique as the server, increasing reliability and waiting more correctly for previous services to stop and so on
    The client now explicitly commands its services to shut down on application close. a rare issue could sometimes leave the process alive because of a client api still hanging on to an old connection and having trouble with the shut-down db
    The file maintenance manager will no longer spam to log during shutdown maintenance
    Sketched out first skeleton of the new unified global maintenance manager
    Improved some post-boot-error shutdown handling that was also doing tiny late errors on server 'stop' command
    Added endchan bunker links to contact pages and github readme
    Updated to ffmpeg 4.2 on windows

Changelog

    New repo processing:

    Improved the new asynchronous repository processing system in several ways:
    It now uses the time it is allotted more accurately. when it has 0.45s to work, it hits this mark more often, especially on slower machines
    It is now politer to the ui if plenty of other work is going on--if the db is loading search results or you are viewing video, it should pause for milliseconds as needed
    It can now work up to 90% of the time during a manual 'process now' run
    When it is working faster than expected, it accelerates its load to operate more efficiently
    As a result, the new system should now have faster rows/s and lag out the ui less

    Client api:

    Improved how parameters are fetched and tested against expected type and given default values if appropriate, and updated all client api code to use this new system
    Added /manage_pages/get_page_info, which gives simple or detailed info on a given page, found by page_key
    Added page info response to hdd importers, simple downloaders, url downloaders, gallery downloaders, watcher downloaders--they say their pause status and file/gallery import info as appropriate
    Added page info response to file import caches--they say their status and num_done/num_to_do, and in detailed mode report file import item info, which is url/path, created, modified, and source times, current status, and any note
    Added page info response to gallery logs--they say their status and num_done/num_to_do, and in detailed mode report gallery log info, which is url, created and modified times, current status, and any note
    Added page info response to thumbnail panes--they say their total num files, and in detailed mode list their ordered hashes
    Started some help for this expansion, but it will need some feedback and more work to finish
    The client api now sorts /get-files/search_files results by import time, newest to oldest. this first hardcoded sort comes to help implement booru-like pagination, but will be expanded to support more types as I flesh out the ui side (as below) as well
    Hydrus services, including the client, should now be able to handle larger request header+path total size (16KB->1MB). this helps some larger GET queries in the client api. let's see how this goes
    Client api is now version 11

    Collect improvements:

    The collect data attached to pages is updated to its own object. the default value and existing page settings should update. all ui now handles the new clean object, rather than the old messy list
    The new collect object supports an option for whether to collect 'unmatched' thumbs or to leave them separate. this displays in the ui as a dropdown beside the collect-by checkboxlist
    To better distinguish between unmatched singles and matched collections with just one item, all one-item collections will now act as collections, with the little '1' collection icon in their corner (previously, they were split into singles). if this is annoying, I will add another option to control whether this occurs
    Removed some old 'integrate media into existing collected structure code' that was complicated, never used, and now broken
    Misc sort/collect refactoring
    Deleted some old unused collection code

    The rest:

    Entering tags in the filename tagging panel, either for all or just selected, now pushes those tags to the 'recent tags' list in later manage tags dialogs
    Added a framework to start sorting search results before the system:limit is applied--I will soon extend this to start catching the current ui sort (say, 'largest files first', and cut a system:limit appropriately, rather than the current random sample)
    Added a faster table size check on the analyze maintenance call that will recognise fast-growing tables (e.g. initially empty/tiny repository processing tables that may have seen a ton of recent work) and schedule them better (this was previously potentially hanging certain maintenance checks/shutdown by several minutes when hitting a surprisingly giant table)
    Reduced the analyze frequency for established tables
    The client will now explicitly count as 'idle' and 'very idle' during shutdown maintenance time, in case any shutdown job is considering that for how greedy it should be with work time
    Fixed an issue where appending new media (thumbnails) to a page that already had that media but within a collection could create a duplicate media entry and invalidate some internal data links to the old media
    Subscriptions will no longer print full traceback information when a network error causes a sync fail
    Updated to yet another deviant art file page parser. title tags and embedded image links should be fixed again, post/source time is not fixed
    The deviant current art login script is confirmed to work for some users. my guess is certain people are getting cloudflare blocked or aren't being shown the new login page all the time yet, please send in any more info you discover
    The client will now recover from a missing options object by putting in a fresh one with default values, including a popup notifying you of the error and giving you a chance to bail out
    Added a warning and link to the quicksync to the access_keys help page
    If the os commands the client to close due to a log off or system shut down, the client will kindly ask for a bit more time do to so if it is available
    Updated the WTFPL license to v3

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

Changelog

    tag migration:

    wrote a unified mass-migrate pipeline to make moving large amounts of data in and out of the client more powerful and more pleasant like other recent non-interrupting changes
    the advanced content update dialog is now renamed to 'migrate tags', both on the review service panel and the manage tags dialog, and has been completely revamped to reflect the new migration pipeline, which works on a location-agnostic (content type, source, filtering, destination, action) model
    the advanced content update dialog is now a non-modal frame--you can keep using the client while it is open, and it will not prohibit the popup from appearing while it works
    added hta and tag service mapping sources to the new migration pipeline, with hash conversion, content status filtering, file domain filtering, specific hash filtering, and tag filtering
    added mappings clear deletion record action to the normal content update pipeline
    added hta and tag service mapping destinations to the new migration pipeline, with appropriate choosable content action (add for HTAs, add, delete, clear deletion record for local tags, and pend, petition for tag repositories)
    added stub list sources and destinations for testing the new migration pipeline
    wrote comprehensive unit tests to test mappings migrations with hta source and destination, including tests for file domain, hash type conversion, and tag filtering
    wrote comprehensive unit tests to test mappings migrations with local tags or tag repository service source and destination, including tests for file domain, hash type conversion, tag filtering, and content status
    adjusted the tag archives to have an optimise call separate from the commit call, so you can do several big jobs in a row faster, or pre-optimise, or top up a well-optimised db without wasting time re-optimising every commit
    added a Close method to Tag Archives just for a nicer explicit exit
    wrote a HydrusTagPairArchive to store sibling and parent tag pairs
    deleted old tag db migration and archive syncing code, which is no longer used
    deleted some related old hta import/export code
    removed the 'tags' export option from the thumbnail share->export menu
    accessing 'migrate tags' is no longer gated by advanced mode on the manage tags dialog cog menu
    the hydrus database now creates a name.temp.db database while it is running to support long-term temp jobs such as the new migration. this file is otherwise unimportant and is deleted on a clean exit

    thumbnail menu rework:

    shifted the thumbnail menu around to group 'view' vs 'action' commands together more sensibly and bury less frequent commands away from the top list
    the 'remove' menu command is now a submenu with filters for 'selected/not selected/ all/inbox/archive'. it also displays on a right-click with no focused file
    'delete' now has separator on both sides to reduce accidental clicks
    'share->open' is now moved up a level and inherits 'open in new page' and 'open externally'
    the 'remote services', 'file relationships' and 'regenerate' submenus are moved to the 'manage' submenu
    made similar changes to the media viewer menus, including grouping the zoom/fullscreen/slideshow commands together and making the zoom commands a submenu
    misc wording and count changes to this menu

    the rest:

    added 'main_gui' shortcuts for 'refresh_all_pages' and 'refresh_page_of_pages'. the second shortcut refreshes all pages under the most immediate page of pages parent
    fixed an issue where under-construction OR predicates were not displaying with the system predicate list
    the 'import local files' frame, which pops up when you drop some paths on the client, is now on the new panel system and sizes and cleans itself up more sensibly as a result
    refactored the remaining 100-odd yesno dialogs to the one that works on the new panel system
    misc yesno dialog message and logic cleanup
    fixed an issue where the export files dialog could hang indefinitely if the filename phrase involved long shared tags that resulted in duplicate paths for the first 245 characters in length. now, the long-filename truncation is done before the de-duping ' (n)' text is appended, and the length limit is reduced to 240
    removed the now-defunct 'regen similar files metadata' command under the database menu--this is now handled in the new file maintenance processing system
    improved database optimisation code to better check if empty/small tables have suddenly grown and improved quality of optimisation data for frequently emptying tables
    fixed the 'clear orphan file records' maintenance task, which was not performing the final clear on the correct domain
    fixed some bad error presentation
    fixed the duplicate page not refreshing maintenance numbers after maintenance job completion
    cleared out a bunch of old py2to3 safety code, maybe sped up some sibling/parent/mappings stuff
    misc ui cleanup and small fixes

    Tag migration:

    Added htpa and tag service sources for parents/siblings migration that support filtering for the left and right tag of each pair
    Added htpa and tag service destinations for parents/siblings migration
    Added unit tests for all parent/siblings migration scenarios
    Misc improvements to mappings migration code
    Reworded some of the tooltip/tag filter message text to more clearly explain how the filter applies to migrations
    The tag filter edit panel now has a 'test' area where you can put in an example tag to see if it passes or is blocked by the current filter

    The rest:

    Fixed an issue with auto-no-ing yes/no dialogs throwing errors on exit. I am sorry for the inconvenience!
    Thumbnails now show the 'has audio' string on their thumbnails
    'sort by file: has audio' added!
    Icons drawn on thumbnails are now adjusted to sit inside the border
    Added increment/decrement numerical ratings actions for media shortcuts! if a file hit by this action has no rating, it will initialise with 0/1 stars or max stars. please forgive the ugly expanding ui in the shortcuts panel here--I'll rewrite this to layout more dynamically in future
    Client repository services now track whether they are 'caught up' to their repos, which for now means processed up until at least two weeks ago, and will prohibit uploading new content until the client is caught up
    Repository review services panels will now display the 'caught up' status below the 'processed' progress gauge
    Repository review services panels will no longer duplicate 'account' status problems in the 'this client's network use' status line--both lines now refer to service/account functionality separately
    Repositories will now put in 'unknown error' when an empty error reason slips through the 'no requests until x time' reporting process
    The new thumbnail and media viewer right-click menus now collapse the selection info lines at the top to just the top line and places all the rest (and in complicated file domain situations, this can be a long list) in a submenu off that line
    The new thumbnail 'remove' submenu has separators after 'selected' and 'all' to reduce misclicks
    Reworded a couple of things in the manage shortcuts panel to be more clear
    Added wildcard support ('eva*lion') and namespace wildcards (like 'character:*') to the advanced OR text input parsing
    Fixed a rare issue with the duplicate filter being unable to go back or retreat from an interstitial confirm/forget/cancel dialog when every pair in the current batch cannot be displayed (such as if at least one of the pair has been physically deleted). the filter now catches this situation, informs the user, and closes itself gracefully
    Added two extremely advanced and dangerous launch parameters for database access testing
    Couple of misc fixes and cleanup

    the default local tag service created for a new client is now renamed from 'local tags' to 'my tags'. any existing user with their local tag service called 'local tags' will be renamed on update to 'my tags'

    ptr migration:

    the ptr has been successfully migrated to user management! hydrus dev is no longer involved in running or administering it. the old bandwidth limits are removed! it has the same port and access key, but instead of hydrus.no-ip.org, it is now at ptr.hydrus.network
    on update, if you sync with the ptr, you will get a yes/no asking if you want to continue using it at the new location. on yes, it'll update your server's address automatically. on no, it'll leave it as-is and pause it. if you still have a connection to my old read-only file repo, that will be paused
    changed the auto repo setup command to be help->add the public tag repository. it points to the new location
    as repo processing and related maintenance is now nicer, and secondarily since bandwidth limits are less a problem for the ptr specifically, the default clientside hydrus bandwidth limit of 64MB/day is lifted to 512MB/day. any users who are still on the old default will be updated
    updated the help regarding the public tag repository, both in general description and the specific setup details

    the rest:

    fixed a small bug related to the new 'caught up' repository mechanic for clients that only just added (or desynced) a repository
    rewrote the tag migration startup job to handle specific 'x files' jobs better--they should now start relatively instantly, no matter the size of the tag service
    on 'all known files' tag migrations, a startup optimisation will now be applied if the tag service is huge
    fixed the tag filter's advanced panel's 'add' buttons, which were not hooked up correctly
    the internal backup job now leaves a non-auto-removing 'backup complete!' message when finished
    on update, server hydrus repositories will collapse all their existing content timestamps to a single value per update. also, all future content uploads will collapse similarly, meaning all update content has the same timestamp. this adds a further layer of anonymity and is a mid-step towards future serverside db compaction (I think I can ultimately reduce server.mappings.db filesize by ~33%). if you have a tag repo with 10M+ mappings, this will take some time
    hydrus servers now generate new cert/key files on boot if they are missing. whenever they generate a new cert/key, they now print a notification to the log
    misc help fixes and updates, and removed some ancient help that referred to old systems
    corrected journalling->journaling typo for the new experimental launch parameter

Movies by CraigWorks is an application that combines a movie collection organizer and a home theater PC software in one. Unlike most movie organizers, this application runs as web server and is accessed using a standard web browser like IE, Firefox and Chrome, so the interface is very familiar and easy to use.

Freeware

Changelog

    Enhancement: Support external subtitle files (Does not work for VLC player)
        Supported types are: srt, webvtt, and ass
        Modify Movie Page: Each media file now includes a section to enter one or more subtitle files. You can specify the language and a short description (e.g. SDH) that will be displayed in the media player.
        Import Queue: When importing a media file, the system will also scan for subtitle files for that media file in the same directory and add them automatically.  The subtitle filename must be prefixed with the basename of the media file and may include an optional language abbreviation and description.

        BNF format:

        <subtitle filename> ::= <media file basename> ["." <language code> ["." <description>]].<srt | vtt | ass>
        <language codes> ::= <ISO 639 alpha-2 or alpha-3 language codes>

        Example:

        Media filename: The Matrix 1999.mkv
        Subtitle filename: The Matrix 1999.srt
        Subtitle filename: The Matrix 1999.en.srt
        Subtitle filename: The Matrix 1999.en.SDH.srt
        Correct Filepath Utility: Enhanced to correct subtitle filepaths.
        Media Player: In the media player the external subtitles will appear after the emedded subtitles. Once a subtitle is enabled, the system will keep subtitles on when playing the next episode in a TV Show and the method used to select which subtitle to enable is based on the language and description.
    Enhancement: Support more IMDB connections: Version Of
    Fix: Fix placement of play menu when invoked from snapshot icon.
    Fix: Fix issues with data importers

Changelog

    File maintenance:

    The file maintenance manager now works continuously in the background, optionally in both idle and active time, with two different throttles, which are now always active
    As usual, the default throttles are low-load (1 heavy job every 2 (idle) or 20 (normal) seconds), so as not to interfere with your browsing or other programs--feel free to speed them up as you wish
    The options for file maintenance under 'maintenance and processing' are updated, and quick-pause actions are now available under database->maintain->file maintenance
    The file maintenance manager no longer works on shutdown
    The file maintenance manager will now only make a popup if it is started by the user--it otherwise now works silently in the background
    The file maintenance manager now weights its jobs, so quick jobs will run faster and heavy jobs will space out more. exact weights, if you are interested, are now under the 'see description' button on the maintenance panel
    File maintenance jobs now report to the debug file report mode
    Improved some misc file maintenance code, particularly with how the panel talks to the manager
    Media with new metadata will now refresh their thumbnails (for now, this means updating the has_audio icon)

    Modified timestamps:

    The client now records file modified timestamps of all file imports!
    On update, the retroactive population of this data for all existing local files will be scheduled on the file maintenance system, which has a new job type for this
    The modified time now appears on a file's information lines that present on a right-click
    The modified time can be sorted with the new 'file: modified time' sort

    The rest:

    Added lexicographic sort by subtag (ignoring namespace) to the normal taglist sort selection
    Reworded the sort by lexicogrphic (grouped by namespace), to be (group unnamespaced)
    The export files panel now has an explicit button to change the neighbouring .txt file tag services
    On duplicate merge action options panel, 'sync archive' is no longer disabled for advanced users' 'alternates' duplicate action
    Split the download and process sync components of repositories a little
    Added a 'download now' button to repositories' review services panels, to hurry up metadata/update download when possible
    The 'process now' button's enable/disable states should now be more reliable
    The 'refresh account' button now disables when a repository is paused
    Improved stability of 'process now' button post-job updating
    Added a subscription option to the downloading option panel to change how many file-fails in a run will cause a sync to stop working early
    Re-added the truncated image loading mode to the debug->data actions menu. this has hung indefinitely with some bad files, so it not on by default
    Fixed an issue with copying an external local booru url with a upnp port
    Fixed an unrecoverable ui hang when a modal popup wants to self-terminate while a child yesno is open
    If on a hydrus request the session key is invalid (due, for instance, to a recent serverside session clearing :^)), the session key cookie will now correctly be cleared clientside so a new one can be generated automatically on the next request
    Hydrus services can now take the access key as their credential using the 'Hydrus-Key' header. more options will come here, basically the same as the client api
    Network jobs waiting on a login process now continue faster once the login is complete (5s sleep cycle down to 1s)
    Perhaps fixed some linux problems with tag migration panel, perhaps not
    Caught and silenced a rare unimportant services shutdown error
    Updated to opencv 4.1.1 on the linux build
    Updated windows ffmpeg to 4.2.1

Changelog

    Tag display updates:

    The old tag censorship system is now replaced by a broader tag display manager that will deal with tag storage and presentation settings. this is the first step, and some of it is not yet completely functional or as efficient as intended
    Management for the new tag display manager can be found under services->manage tag display. you can set per-service and all-services filters for 'multiple' display like the 'tag selection' boxes and for 'single' file views, like thumbnails and the media viewer
    Existing censorship rules will be added to the new manager and will apply to 'selection list' and 'single media' display rules
    Censorship/display rules no longer apply to underlying storage views, which are unfilterable for now, so the manage tags dialog and the autocomplete lookup will now show all tags
    Page and media viewer taglists now have new right-click menu options for hiding--they will provide hide options for the specific tag clicked, and its namespace more broadly, and will apply immediately to that kind of taglist (previously, this was just the tag, and launched the tag censorship edit panel)
    All 'tag manager' objects behind every media object in the client now pre-compute cache layers for different tag presentation contexts. operations such as sibling collapse are now only done on file load or new siblings
    For now, initial media load will take slightly longer, but various tag display updates and autocomplete tag fetches on media will be faster
    Changes to siblings and the new tag display rules will now trigger a reliable (although, for siblings, delayed by a few seconds) and complete tag list and thumbnail and media viewer refresh
    Changes to tag presentation will now correctly update collection thumbnails
    Some complicated sibling display and counts are now more precise
    Cleaned up some tag/siblings/thumb refresh notification code
    Cleaned up all tag manager access code
    Cleaned up a variety of related tag fetching, counting, and display code

    The rest:

    Added 'system:modified date'. it works just like system:time imported
    Files with duration but no audio will now have a ' ▶ ' label in the top-left of their thumbnails, like the 'has audio' one. you can edit this label under options->audio and duration. I don't really like how this looks, so maybe we'll go to icons. let me know what you think
    Fixed an iteration timing bug in the new asynchronous repository mappings processing that meant large lists of mappings within an update object may be occasionally truncated, leaving some mappings unprocessed. this would more affect users on slower machines running 'process now'
    Any tag repository content updates issued in the last eight weeks will be scheduled for reprocessing to cover the above issue and fill in gaps for most user situations. since the vast majority of the data was added as intended, they should catch up very fast
    Added two pixiv url classes for their new url format
    The edit subs panel now recommends users break up subs with >200k urls
    The 'separate' subscriptions button now has a new 'break in half' option. subscriptions that have more than 100 queries will auto-choose this to separate
    The 'quality info' button for advanced users' edit subscription panels now gives the option to additionally copy the info to your clipboard in CSV format
    The lists on the gallery downloader, thread watcher, subscription, and subscriptions panels now sort their progress column by ( y, x ) (given a total status of x/y). previously, this was preceded by a percent-done sort
    The hydrus network engine now recognises 429 bandwidth responses
    On 429 or 509 bandwidth responses, network jobs will now go through the regular reconnection delay loop and try again later (previously, they just failed)
    Added 'tag migration' to 'services' menu for quick-launch
    Tag migration's 'go' action now skips the second confirmation if you are in advanced mode
    Expanded the 'reset' review services button (only visible to advanced users) to allow 'softer' resets that simply reprocess definition/content without deletion (a 'filling in the gaps' command)
    Fixed the 'process now' review services button disable check, which was being overzealous
    Cleaned up some of the new repo 'caught up' checking code
    Improved stability of review services 'refresh account' call
    The client api /manage_pages/get_page_info call now returns a list of hash_ids beside the list of hashes, in simple or not simple mode
    Fixed a bug where tag import options that still had a secret deleted service reference were causing tag-parse errors on import jobs
    Fixed some other places that were not handling service disappearance neatly
    Added a note to the install/backup help to mention not to use continuous cloud-sync backups on your live db directory
    Misc unit test refactoring

    the edit tag filter panel now has load/save/delete buttons at the top to manage tag filter favourites. it starts with a handful of examples
    sorting thumbnails by num tags or namespaces now uses the 'single' tag display context

    all thumbnail pages now do an addition de-dupe check when they are created with media
    when a gallery page parser now adds new urls to a file import list, urls that are invalid will now be skipped (previously, they threw an error and failed the parse
    fixed a bug where if a default collect is set, pages without a collect (e.g. download pages) would nonetheless initialise with collected+sorted initial media on session load
    file imports now publish the same 'refresh existing media metadata' call as the file maintenance system, meaning if the import already exists in the gui session as an 'unknown thumb', it should now refresh itself correctly
    if the media canvas is called to display an invalid media (due to mime mixup or a faulty parse that slips through), it should now better recognise that and skip/dump out
    fixed import of videos that have 'Duration:' in their title metadata
    improved the error reporting when the old options object fails to save
    removed some old ratings dialog position options storage that was causing errors on certain ratings dialog ok events
    url classes now support options regarding the 'referer' http header they send (their referral url). you can set an optional converter to generate a referral url based on the url class's url and choose to always use the given referrer if available, never use a referrer, use the converter if no referrer is available, or always use the converter
    the network report mode now reports on referral urls used in requests
    the 'quoted' referral url (a unicode workaround) is now only applied if the referral url cannot be encoded to latin-1

If you frequently work with large numbers of video files, you probably know how difficult it is to find what you need without watching every single clip. Thankfully, there are various types of applications that can help you out.

Scene Explorer is one of them, a fairly simple utility that generates thumbnails for every video in a directory, making it easier for you to see their contents without actually playing them.

    added a noneable spinctrl to control how many files are shown on a petition row double-click. it samples randomly and defaults to 256
    I think I fixed the issue where the petitions taglist sometimes hangs on to some old tags after a petition process event

    the rest:

    you can now customise the animation scanbar height and nub width under options->media
    all users now see the number of open pages in the pages menu
    added approx total session 'weight' to the pages menu. this is an early test and will do more and update more frequently in future
    added add/remove tag to favourites to the taglist right-click menu
    collapsed the taglist right-click menu a little, as it was getting a bit tall
    added https://gitgud.io/koto/hydrus-archive-delete, a web browser archive/delete filter, to client api help
    added clipboard import/export buttons to the edit tag filter panel for the new favourites
    added 'open in a new page' to media viewer right-click menus, just to put the current single media in a new page
    fixed the url class edit panel not initialising with the new referral options correctly
    the call that publishes new subscription/import folder media to pages now does so more politely to the gui when the db is busy
    subscriptions will no longer start if global network traffice is paused
    the 'hard-replace siblings/parents' action under manage tags is now a local-only operation for tag repositories. clients with unusual sibling and parent application will no longer affect the repos they sync with
    on program shutdown, if a daemon takes more than thirty seconds to shutdown (which can happen in odd situations, like if a subscription run is paused by global network traffic pause, leading to shutdown deadlock), the client will stop waiting and continue with other shutdown tasks
    fixed an error with client 'already running' fast exit
    fixed a different error with server 'already running' exit choice
    updated some ffmpeg calls to fix certain OS problems
    fixed a help link to todolist recommendation and added link to new ptr guidelines

Changelog

    Hydrus now uses Qt for its client's user interface, migrating from wx. this is thanks to a huge effort by a user, who delivered converted code for hydrus dev to finish off
    A number of hacks and patches remain to compensate for old systems, which hydrus dev will slowly clean up in normal work. ui bug and layout issue reports would be greatly appreciated
    Shortcut storage had to be converted from fixed wx enums to an independant system. there is a small chance that one of your shortcuts, particularly if it is on the numpad, may have been converted wrong (unusual Enter/Return buttons may be hit here). if one is not working, please check what hydrus thinks it is and try re-entering it
    Added tentative support for 'Mode_switch' keyboard modifier, for X11 users (and perhaps some users' AltGr?)
    Autocomplete results can now float in a popup window in dialogs like manage tags! they'll still embed by default, but there are now separate float/embed options for 'main gui' and 'other frame' a/cs
    Autocomplete results can now float in linux and macOS ok!
    Page drag and drop now navigates as you drag, so dropping into a page of pages works by you hovering over it and then dropping in the tabbar below, inserting exactly where you want the page to be
    A couple of text inputs in the program--the watcher and gallery search pages' text inputs, particularly--now use nicer 'placeholder' text, which isn't real and only shows as grey text when the input is empty
    For now, moved to icons for thumbnail 'has audio/duration' indicators, rather than the custom labels
    to run the hydrus client from source, qtpy is now needed. either pyside2 (default) or qtpy5 is needed. QtCharts is optional. wx and matplotlib are no longer needed

    Misc:

    'archive/delete filter' now appears even when no file is focused. it also appears when no files are selected--and will apply to everything
    The system predicate edit panels now support static buttons for easy one-click select for common predicates. duration, has audio, limit, and num tags now have these
    System:duration and system:num tags now render a special label if they are >0 or =0
    system:untagged is now removed from the normal list
    Fixed a critical cpu inefficiency in the file maintenance manager's new always-on maintenance, which was lagging several users' browsing sessions while it was working
    Fixed ctrl+mousewheel tag autocomplete results navigation to skip over multirow parent results
    Fixed an issue where resetting to default bandwidth rules for a network context would not update the ui properly
    Fixed a bug when adding a parent/sibling from autocomplete results list
    The serialised png export folder now catches when a manually inputted export path's directory does not exist
    Reduced metadata update lag of pages with very large media collection groups
    The inaccurate 'add tags based on filename' button is now called 'import with tags'
    Fixed a database UNIQUE issue when two duplicate gui session save calls happen within one second
    The server's lock_off command now works with the Hydrus-Key header auth (rather than hanging indefinitely wew)
    The server now caches hashed access keys in the session manager, in memory, to avoid a db hit on access-key based reauthentication, and in instances where this authentication requires a db hit, now cleanly provides an appropriate 'serverbusy' error
    Improved some media object memory management and speedy cleanup
    Improved boot fail graceful exit
    Removed a bunch of defunct flash (swf) hacks from media viewer code
    Bunch of misc non-qt cleanup as I went through the code
    Fixed a bug with rendering network credentials for human display
    Cleared out the ancient tag archive sync advanced help and added a stub for the new tag migration window
    Various help updates around wx->Qt

Titel: Hydrus Network 374
Beitrag von: SiLæncer am 21 November, 2019, 09:09
Changelog

    Qt environment/build:

    The linux build has a variety of common library files removed, letting your OS rely on higher compatibility system defaults. this should clean up font and other issues for users running on very new/old system libraries. if you cannot run 374, please let me know your distro and version and any error messages
    The special linux running from source document is updated, including info about Arch and PyQt5
    Fixed a windows build issue that meant some animated gifs were not able to load and render correctly
    Fixed a precise time fetching issue for users running from source with python 3.8
    High dpi scaling should have improved support. please report on bad layout issues and other artifacts
    Fixed creating a serialised object png when using PyQt5
    Fixed file save dialogs with filetype filters when using PyQt5
    Fixed an important menubar related memory leak
    Seem to have fixed an important media viewer memory leak

    Qt ui fixes:

    Fixed pages not collecting and sorting on creation if they do not have to, which restores the 'preserve flat unsorted order' behaviour of session loads and file drag and drop page tab creations
    Fixed the cursor not unhiding on move in the media viewer when over an animation or static image
    Fixed the issue where a new thumbnail panel would double-up with the old one for half a second if a menu caused the panel swap
    Reworked the elided (text that cuts off...) label code to more reliably work on single lines, which fits our purposes. the network job control (esppecially on subscription popups) and top hover window should now show their long statuses without changing their parent panel's layout
    Updated a variety of old text-wrap-width wx-hacks texts to instead auto-fill available space
    The various downloaders should now be careful about handling large status texts. if a multiline error or html page slips in to a status somewhere, your download pages' lists should no longer go nuts with very tall spam-filled status cells
    Hydrus->discord drag and drop should be fixed if the BUGFIX is on!
    Fixed page tab drag and drop to do live drag selection with 'do not follow' behaviour (this is switched by holding down shift during drag), and, in this case, got it to return to the original page's neighbour/parent once the drop is complete
    Fixed 'center' dialogs positioning on the center of their parent windows, rather than the center of the primary screen
    Fixed the hover windows not passing shortcuts up to the media viewer when not consumed
    Fixed some misc 'can I consume a shortcut' focus/active checking code
    Fixed the various hide/parents/siblings tag menu items for tags with counts
    Fixed the main gui and other non-dialog windows remembering their pre-maximise/fullscreen sizes if set to remember size and previously closing while maximised/fullscreened
    Menubar menus should now show description text in the main gui statusbar on mouseover of their items
    Fixed a bad menu initialisation in the canvas preview panel
    Fixed a little page splitter bork and improved size of preview window on initial boot
    Fixed the edit notes dialog when launched from the media viewer
    Fixed a couple of text edit issues in edit url class panel
    Fixed page up/down scroll for taglists
    Fixed page down scroll for thumbnail grid, and fixed page up/down distance
    Fixed thumbnails not scrolling into view if they are keyboard-selected slightly off screen but within the scroll option percentage threshold
    Misc layout and style cleanup
    Misc refactoring

    Misc:

    You can now set the maximum size of duplicate filter pair batches (default 250) under options->duplicates
    When an ipfs service fails to pin a file and returns no hash or the empty multihash, this is now recognised, info dumped to log, a simple popup message sent, and the job continued. this is just a patch--better error handling here will come later
    If the client or server are launched with a custom temp_dir that does not exist, it will now attempt to create it (previously errored out)
    Fixed a clean exit after certain client boot fail error handling, and repeated cleaner exit for the server
    Added some new memory profiling actions to the help->debug menu
    Parallel subscriptions should now initialise with less of an aggresive CPU spike
    If the client or server crash before the application can be launched, the crash log is now called hydrus_crash.log. if the db dir is not yet established, it will now try to find and put it in your desktop and, failing that, then your user dir
    The client no longer prints 'booting db' twice
    A variety of misc code cleanup and fixes

Manage large media collections and re-organize them using tags instead of folders that you can share via custom servers with this application.

The Unlicense

Changelog

    Qt:

    Disabled the failed legacy high dpi scaling mode experiment (which was scaling up thumbnails and media in an ugly way) and returned to font-size-based natural ui scaling as set by the OS. a couple of non-font things like bitmap buttons and various layout margins are too small on >100% UI scale, and the splash screen is borked again, but it looks clear again. I'll keep working on this
    Fixed the custom taglist at >100% UI scale, which was spacing its tags at the wrong text height. this should survive changing ui scale while the program is open and environments with multiple monitors at different ui scale
    Re-fixed a critical old media-viewer-close-on-video memory leak from wx code to qt code. this was also a cause for some child ffmpeg processes not being terminated
    Fixed the media viewer not redrawing correctly when the media size completely exceeds the canvas window size
    Fixed the loading of the shortcut edit panel when the shortcut set a tag
    Fixed some url class edit path component ui
    Fixed and cleaned up some 'safe window size/position' calculations that were missing out the total frame geometry, meaning some dialogs were not moving up and left enough to show entirely on screen, and dialogs with parent-dimension gravity were not calculating initial size accurately
    Fixed focusing on the already-open manage tags text input when you hit 'manage tags' on a canvas with a manage tags dialog already open
    Fixed the html formula rule edit ui actually rendering html tag labels, lmao
    Updated boot-password entry to use the normal hydrus text entry dialog, and fixed a hydrus password cancel not setting a 'clean' exit for the next boot
    Fixed page layout splitter sash positions not resetting nicely from the menu command
    Fixed keyboard delete in the manage urls dialog
    Popup message titles are now in bold
    Popup message titles should now multiline correctly and fill available width
    The popup messages manager should now set its min/fixed width more sensibly
    Subscription popups now will be wider if space is available
    Wrote a new class to manage better asynchronous updates for future Qt ui presentation
    The file, pages, and pending menubar menus, which all require a db hit to generate, now operate on this new update class. all three should update faster when able and more politely and smoothly wait when the db is busy
    Reduced some accidental blocking in an old ui-update routine that kicked in when it was running hard
    If the media_viewer frame type is set not to remember its 'last size', it will now instantiate with a small min size
    When pasting new queries into a sub, if there are more than 5 or 50 that are already in or new, they will be rendered in a more compact way in order to stop the notification dialog growing too tall
    Improved stability of page update, splash screen update, and perhaps pubsub update

    New file maintenance jobs:

    Added a new 'check for missing files' file maintenance job, where if the file is missing and has urls, those urls will be queued up in a new url downloader for redownload. the file record is not removed, preserving archive/inbox and import time
    Added a new 'check for invalid files' file maintenance job that does the same deal as above with an additional expensive byte-for-byte content check if the file is not missing
    Added a new 'check for invalid files' file maintenance job that only cares about invalidity--if the file is present and invalid, it is moved out but the file record is not removed

    The rest:

    Network jobs that receive low-bandwidth error codes from the server now use a separate wait routine (previously, they piggybacked on the connection fail retry system). they have a separate cog-menu action to override these waits
    The time delay multiple for connection errors and serverside bandwidth problems are now editable under options->connection. old default was 10 seconds base, now 15 and 60 seconds respectively
    Updated the danbooru login script
    Improved the precision of the thumbnail size estimate in database migration
    The alphabetisation of a url class's GET paramaters on normalise is now optional. it is a new checkbox on the url class edit panel
    When a default object fails to load from a png path, a simple error is now written to the log
    Misc cleanup

Beitrag von: SiLæncer am 05 Dezember, 2019, 12:13
Changelog

    subscriptions:

    wrote a new subscription manager to better look after subscription scheduling
    rather than checking every four hours or after manage subs dialog close, subscriptions now record an indication of when they are next due for work, whether that is the estimated next check time or when bandwidth is free on remaining file downloads, and launch in a fifteen-minute window around that time. delays due to previous errors or user cancels are also taken into account. this reduces background cpu and i/o greatly for clients with large subs
    if a sub is paused, or all its queries are paused, it will now never be reloaded after first load until a change via the manage subs dialog
    furthermore, if a single sub takes a very long time to work, the whole sublist can re-cycle if they come up due for more work before it is finished
    if a sub query is DEAD but still has outstanding files to download, it will no longer automatically pause
    subs now clean up more tidily if they are running on a program exit
    the subscription popup now shows check/file progress based on the number of queries that appear to have pending work. instead of 'query 300/450' with 420 that aren't due, you'll get 'query 12/30'. if a query becomes due during a round of checking, another round of checking will run
    if a subscription fails to load from the db, the error is handled better and no more subs will run in that boot
    improved subscription startup checking logic, tightening up various paused/dead/cansync tests
    improved subscription interrupt checking logic, tightening checks on global network pause and various shutdown scenarios
    cleaned up some more subscription code in prep for data storage breakup

    qt:

    added experimental Qt style settings to the new options->style page! all users should now be able to set Fusion style, and perhaps some alternate OS styles. advanced users are invited to play around with QSS stylesheets (although be warned that some of hydrus's custom colour system overrides QSS, so more work is needed here), which will be extended and made user-friendly in coming weeks
    fixed tab position calculations for all tab/media drag and drops for tab bars that are centered or otherwise positioned far off top-left alignment
    fixed tab drag and drop event object handling for macOS. tab and media DnD is now enabled for macOS
    the popup toaster can now unhide if an on-top-of-parent non-modal frame (like review services) is focused (so hitting 'process now' should show you the work)
    fixed a variety of old hacky wx close-window veto tests. the 'close client?' confirmation dialog will now reliably veto a close requent on 'no'/cancel, dialog close events that are vetoed (such as closing the manage tags dialog with pending tags) will now veto more than just the first time, and several bad media viewer archive/dupe filtering cancel and end-of-window events should now work more cleanly and correctly. users who had crashes at the end of filtering may find they are stable again
    as a quick patch against some multiline notes and statuses, list controls now force single-line text in all cells
    list controls now tooltip all cells
    fixed the shutdown splash not updating after the daemons shut down (lmao)
    'modal' message dialogs, which are created by blocking maintenance tasks such as vacuum, will no longer raise the program to the foreground on creation
    should have fixed the taglist vertical positioning jank that could occur in the row after a tag with a tall emoji unicode character (and also sometimes kanji/hangul)
    fixed a typo bug that was throwing an error for the upnp port widget in the local client server management panel when 'allow non local connections' was checked
    improved stability of bandwidth review panel bandwidth rules refresh
    improved stability of review services bandwidth rules refresh
    improved some dialog cleanup code
    reverted a bad environment-setting change put in last week that was causing some running-from-source users trouble
    misc qt code cleanup

    the rest:

    updated the default pixiv tag search downloader to one submitted by a user. it now uses their api
    updated the default twitter username lookup to a downloader submitted by a user. it fetches just the media tweet feed, making it more efficient. also added (but not linked by default) is a new tweet parser that can fetch most videos using a third-party site, advanced users may wish to play with this
    added a {file_id} term for file export phrases that substitutes a unique and permanent numerical file identifier
    fixed an issue where idle maintenance jobs could sometimes sneak in a few milliseconds of work during certain long shut down pauses, such as while waiting for a 'should I do shutdown work?' dialog to return. program shutdown should be snappier for many users as forced startup delays in these calls will no longer trigger
    added a date 'encode' string transformation rule, which takes an integer timestamp and converts it to a pretty date string. the date rules are now renamed to the clearer 'datestring to timestamp' and vice versa
    fixed page parser edit panel's 'test parse' when string transformations perform pre-parsing conversion. the handling and passing of test data for all the panels here is cleaned up throughout
    system:limit predicate edit panel now has a small label describing its sampling behaviour
    updated the various 8chan links in the client and help to 8kun, let me know if I missed any, and added Endchan bunker link to help menu
    improved some misc status text handling across the program
    refactored cache and manager code into different, simpler files
    updated sqlite on windows build to 3.30.1

Changelog

    Qt:

    all non-menubar menus across the program now launch on click release. some previously launched on click press. a variety of related click event behaviour is cleaned up, particularly with thumbnail/tag selection on the click down. this also fixes some users' menus immediately activating the first entry on slow clicks in some ui styles
    I think I fixed the annoying single-frame delayed size-down resize on media viewer hover frames when changing media!
    the vast majority of old wx panel background colour hacks are removed, so custom stylesheets should now cover much more of the UI
    improved the new custom style and stylesheet setting, resetting, and error handling code, particularly for not re-applying the same style or stylesheet twice, and for handling un-re-settable styles (seems to be defaults initialised by third-party OS-wide Qt style) gracefully
    fixed hyperlinks not using the custom web browser launch path as set in the options
    fixed the 'migrate entire db' and 'set thumb location' buttons in the migrate database dialog
    fixed a typo bug when launching the url selection tree after adding an ipfs directory to download
    fixed two typo bugs when editing regex favourites and simple downloader formulae
    fixed an issue where custom shortcut sets could not be deleted
    fixed a typo in the edit account type panel
    fixed sorting the login listctrl when there are session logins mixed with non-session logins
    removed some old media viewer hover window display/raise hacks
    retired the 'always show hover windows' debug mode
    the media viewer will no longer perform any drag calculations on anything but left-click drag
    misc Qt code refactoring/cleanup

    URL searching:

    the database now stores 'known url' domain information more efficiently. it will take a few moments/minutes to reshape the db when updating
    system:known url's exact url search now runs extremely fast. this will only affect new predicates of this type, not those in existing sessions
    system:known url's domain search now runs much faster and matches subdomains of the given domain. this will only affect new predicates of this type, not those in existing sessions
    system:known url's url class search now runs much faster. this will only affect new predicates of this type, not those in existing sessions
    when entering a regex system:known url predicate, the dialog will now not OK (throwing up an error dialog)
if the regex is invalid

    The rest:

    the shortcut system now allows all text characters. if it has text, it should work, but it is the wild west in terms of modifier labelling. anything unusual on your keyboard like ctrl+alt+e to make æ will display as ctrl+alt+æ, but the same key combination will match up in the program all correct
    added shortcut actions 'pan_top_edge', 'pan_bottom_edge', 'pan_left_edge', 'pan_right_edge' to the media viewer shortcut set that will move the current image so the respective edge is aligned with the larger canvas's
    added shortcut actions 'pan_horizontal_center' and 'pan_vertical_center' to do as above but center on that axis
    session save now hangs the UI significantly less, whether triggered by user command or auto-saving 'last session'
    saving of last/exit sessions on client close is a little faster
    the call to refresh thumbnail file info (and redraw if needed) when a file is imported or has metadata-regenererating file maintenance done will now only call for files that are actually loaded, run faster per file, run faster when the client has large collections in its session, and not hang the ui thread when waiting for the new media info to arrive
    like regular popups, modal popups (like those created when big vacuum/analyze jobs jump in) will now only appear if the main gui or an on-parent child has OS focus
    the main gui/on-parent child OS focus test now includes misc child windows like the autocomplete results hover window
    network jobs that fail for one reason or another will now be more reliably cleaned up, and their connections returned to the connection pool. this may fix the 'too many open file handles' errors some users were seeing after long term unreliable network traffic
    fixed an issue where some thumbnails that were trashed or physically deleted were being removed from 'all known files' and file repository views when it was not appropriate
    connection and downloader retry time options now have a wider min/max range when in advanced mode, with an accompanying warning label for the connection panel
    checker options times now have a wider min/max range when in advanced mode, with an accompanying warning label
    cleaned up some shutdown reporting text
    misc debug improvements

Changelog

    if a search has system:limit, the current sort is now sent down to the database. if the sort is simple, results are now sorted before system:limit is applied, meaning you will now get the largest/longest/whateverest sample of the search! supported sorts are: import time, filesize, duration, width, height, resolution ratio, media views, media viewtime, num pixels, approx bitrate, and modified time. this does not apply to searches in the 'all known files' file domain.
    after identifying a sometimes-unoptimal db access routine, wrote a new more reliable one and replaced the 60-odd places it is used in both client and server. a variety of functions will now have less 'spiky' job time, including certain combinations of regular tag and system search predicates. some jobs will have slightly higher average job time, some will be much faster in all common situations
    added additional database analysis to some complicated duplicate file system jobs that adds some overhead but should reduce extreme spikes in job time for very large databases
    converted some legacy db code to new access methods
    fixed a bug in the new menu generation code that was not showing sessions in the 'pages' menu if there were no backups for these sessions (i.e. they have only been saved once, or are old enough to have been last saved before the backup system was added)
    fixed the 'click window close button should back out, not choose the red no button' bug in the yes/no confirmation dialogs for analyze, vacuum, clear orphan, and gallery log button url import
    fixed some checkbox select and data retrieval logic in the checkbox tree control and completely cleared out the buggy ipfs directory download workflow. I apologise for the delay
    fixed some inelegant multihash->urls resolution in the ipfs service code that would often mean a large folder would lock the client while parsing was proceeding
    when the multihash->urls resolution is going on, the popup now exposes the underlying network control. cancelling the whole job mid-parse/download is now also quicker and prettier
    when a 'downloader multiple urls' popup is working, it will publish its ongoing presented files to a files button as it works, rather than just once the job is finished
    improved some unusual taglist height calculations that were turning up
    improved how taglists set their minimum height--the 'selection tags' list should now always have at least 15 rows, even when bunched up in a tall gallery panel
    if the system clock is rewound, new objects that are saved in the backup system (atm, gui sessions) will now detect that existing backups are from the future and increase their save time to ensure they count as the newest object
    short version: 'remove files from view when trashed' now works on downloader thumbs that are loaded in from a session. long version: downloader thumb pages now force 'my files' file domain for now (previously it was 'all local files')
    the downloader/thread watcher right-click menus for 'show all downloaders xxx files' now has a new 'all files and trash' entry. this will show absolutely everything still in your db, for quick access to accidental deletes
    the 'select a downloader' list dialog should size itself better, with no double scrollbars, when there are many many downloaders and/or very long-named downloaders. if this layout works, I'll replicated it in other areas
    if an unrenderable key enters a shortcut, the shortcut will now display an 'unknown key: blah' statement instead of throwing an error. this affected both the manage shortcuts dialog and the media viewer(!)
    SIGTERM is now caught in non-windows systems and will initiate a fast forced shutdown
    unified and played with some border styles around the program
    added a user-written guide to updating to the 'getting started - installing' help page
    misc small code cleanup

Beitrag von: SiLæncer am 22 Dezember, 2019, 20:50
(http://funk.eu/wp-content/uploads/140406_AMT_Screenshot1_medium.jpg)
The AMT – Auto-Movie-Thumbnailer is an automation GUI to batch create ScreenCaps, Thumbnail Index Pictures, Preview Pictures or Contact Sheets for any given number of movies.
It supports many different input (AVI, MPG, Quicktime, Real-Media, Windows-Media, etc) formats, in fact every input format that is supported by MPlayer.

Additionally AMT offers you a huge number of possibilities to customize the design and layout of the ScreenCaps. AMT works by remotely controlling the MPlayer, some applications of the ImageMagick Suite and a MediaInfo plugin to perform the screenshoting and Picture creation.

Freeware

Changelog

– Increased overall speed especially for HD files by using pre-scaling and improving processing functions
– Use x64 version if possible, as MPlayer x64 is much faster on huge files. Only sub-binaries are x64, AMT itself still is x86.
– x86 version contains MPlayer codec pack (not available for x64), nevertheless most files should play fine without it
– Integrated BIC code (crop and rotate) for single cap post-processing
– A lot of tiny changes and improvements
– Updated all sub-binaries

Changelog

    Downloaders:

    the right-click menus from gallery and watcher page lists now provide a 'remove' option
    gallery and watchers now provide buttons and menu actions for 'retry ignored'
    activating a file import status list (double-clicking or hitting enter on a selection of rows) now opens the selection in a new page
    file import status buttons now have show new/all files on their right-click menus
    on gallery and watcher pages, the highlight, clear highlight, pause files, and pause search/check buttons are now smaller bitmap buttons
    as the old default pixiv login script is completely broken, any client with this active will have it deactivated and receive an update popup explaining the situation and suggesting to use Hydrus Companion for login instead
    updated the derpibooru downloader

    Search:

    when search predicates are added to the active search list, they are now better able to remove existing mutually exclusive/redundant predicates:

    system:limit, hash, and similar to predicates now remove other instances of their type
    system:has audio now removes system:no audio and vice versa
    any search predicate will remove system:everything (see how you feel about this)
    improved 378's db optimisation to do tag searches in large file domains faster
    namespace search predicates ('character:anything' etc...) now take advantage of the same set of temporary file domain optimisations that tag predicates do, so mixing them with other search predicates will radically improve their speed
    wildcard search predicates, which have been notoriously slow in some cases, now take full advantage of the new tag search optimisations and are radically faster when mixed with other search predicates
    simple tag, namespace, or wildcard searches that are mixed with a very large system:inbox predicate are now much faster
    a variety of searches that include simple system predicates are now faster
    integer tag searches also now use the new tag search optimisation tech, and are radically faster when mixed with other search predicates
    system:known url queries now use the same temporary file domain search optimisation, and a web-domain search optimisation. this particularly improves domain and url class searches
    fixed an issue with the new system:limit sorting where sort types with non-comprehensive data (like media views/viewtime, where files may not yet have records) were not delivering the 'missing' file results
    improved the limit/sort_by logic to only do sort when absolutely needed
    fixed the system:limit panel label to talk about the new sorted clipping
    refactored tag searching code
    refactored namespace searching code
    refactored wildcard searching code and its related subfunctions
    cleaned all mappings searching code further

    The rest:

    m4a files (and m4b) are now supported and recognised as separate audio-only mp4 files. files with a single jpeg frame for their video stream (such as an album cover) should also be recognised as audio only m4a for hydrus purposes for now. better single-frame audio support, including functional thumbnails and display, is planned for the future. please send in any m4a or m4b files that detect incorrectly
    the remove thumbnail menu has been moved to a new, cleaner file filtering system. it now presents remove options for different file services and local/remote when available (most of the time, this will be 'my files'/'trash' appearing when there is a mix), including with counts for all options
    the select thumbnail menu is also moved to this same file filtering system. it has a neater menu, with counts for each entry. also, when there is no current focus, or it is to be deselected, the first file to be selected is now focused and scrolled to
    for thumbnail icon display and internal calculations, collections now merge the locations of their members, rather than intersecting. if a collection includes any trash, or any ipfs members, it will have the appropriate icon. this also fixes some selection-by-file-service logic for collections
    import folders, export folders, and subscriptions now explicitly only start after the first session has been loaded (so as well as freeing up some boot CPU competition, a quick import folder will now not miss publishing a file or two to a long-loading session)
    the subscription manager now only waits 15s before starting first work (previously, the buffer was 60 seconds)
    rearranged migrate tags panel so action comes before destination and added another help text line to clarify how it works. the 'go' confirmation dialog now summarises tag filtering as well
    tag filter buttons now have a prefix on their labels and tooltips to better explain what they are doing
    the duplicate filter right-center hover window should now shorten its height appropriately when the pairs change
    fixed a couple of bugs that could appear when shutting down the duplicate filter
    hackily 'fixed' an issue with duplicates processing that could cause too many 'commit and continue?' dialogs to open. a better fix here will come with a pending rewrite
    dejanked a little of how migrate tags frame is launched from the manage tags dialog
    updated the backup help a little and added a note about backing up to the first-start popup
    improved shutdown time for a variety of situations and added a couple more text notifications to shutdown splash
    cleaned up some exit code
    removed the old 'service info fatten' maintenance job, which is not really needed any more
    misc code cleanup
    updated to Qt 5.14 on Windows and Linux builds, OpenCV 4.1.2 on all builds

Changelog

     basic mpv support is added. it comes with the windows build this week, and is a prototype meant for initial testing. the library is optional. users who run from source will want 'python-mpv' added via pip and libmpv available on their PATH, more details in running_from_source help
    took an qt-mpv example kindly provided by a user, updated it to work with the hydrus environment, and integrated it into the client as a new choosable view type under audio/video filetypes under options->media for advanced users
    reworked how the 'start paused' and 'start with embed button' media viewer options work under options->media. these are now separate checkboxes, not combined with the underlying 'show action'. existing embed/paused show actions should be converted automatically to the correct new values
    unfortunately, due to some python/qt/libmpv wrapper mouse interaction issues, mpv's 'on screen controller' overlay is not available
    for now, left click pause/plays the mpv window, just like the native mpv window.
    preview/next frame shortcuts should work for the mpv window when playing video
    no volume/mute controls yet, these will come in the coming weeks, including global mute settings
    updated media show and sizing code to account for mpv widgets
    reworked my animation scanbar to talk to mpv, and for my mpv window to talk back to it
    improved the animation scanbar to be more flexible when frame position and num_frames are not available, both in displaying info and calculating scanbar seek clicks

    mpv api version added to help->about

    new downloader objects:
    thanks to a user, updated the 'pixiv artist page' url class to a new object that covers more situations. the defunct 'pixiv artist gallery page' url class is removed
    added 8kun and vch.moe download support. I got started on julay, smug, and endchan, but they were a little more tricky and I couldn't finish them in time--fingers crossed, next week

    menu quality of life:

    a right-click on thumbnail whitespace will now not send a 'deselect all' event! feel free to right-click in empty space to do an easy remove->selected
    remorked the tag menu layout to move less frequently used actions down:
    moved the discard/require/permit/exclude search predicate actions down
    moved 'open in a new page' below select and copy
    moved copy above select
    and some misc menu layout improvement on this menu
    fixed some labelling with the discard/require/permit/exclude verbs on negated tags
    right-clicking on system search predicates now shows the 'copy' menu correctly
    system predicates that offer easy inverse versions (like inbox/archive) should now offer the 'exclude' verb
    when right-clicking on a single tag that has siblings, its siblings and those siblings' subtags will now be listed in the copy menu!
    copying 'all' tags from a list menu, with or without counts, will now always copy them in the list order
    across the program, all menu 'labels' (menu text items that do not have a submenu and have no associated action, like 'imported 3 years 7 months ago') will now copy their text to the clipboard. let's see how it goes

    other ui quality of life:

    across the program's UI, filetypes are now referred to with simpler terms rather than technical mimetypes. instead of 'image/jpg', it is now typically just 'jpeg'
    the 'remove selected' buttons on the gallery and watcher pages are now smaller trash icon buttons
    the new page chooser will now auto-dismiss if it loses focus--so if you accidentally launch it with a middle-/double-click somewhere, just click again and it'll go away
    hitting enter or return on the new page chooser now picks the 'first' button, scanning from the top-left. hitting enter twice now typically opens a new 'my files' search page
    added pause_media and pause_play_media shortcuts to the media_viewer shortcut set. new clients will start with space keypress performing pause_play_media
    added pause_play_slideshow shortcut to the media_viewer_browser shortcut set. this shortcut is no longer hardcoded by space keypress
    the six default shortcut sets now have a small description text on their edit panels
    the options->media edit panels now enable/disable widgets better based on current media/preview action
    added a checkbox to options->gui pages to set whether middle-clicking a tag in the media viewer or a child tag manager to open a tag search page will switch to the main gui. default is false
    mr bones now reports total files, total filesize, and average filesize
    mr bones now loads your fate asynchronously

    the rest:

    added tentative and simple realvideo (.rm) and realaudio (.ra) support--seems to work ok, but some weirder variable bit rate formats may not, and I have collapsed the various different extensions just down to .rm or .ra
    added trueaudio (.tta) audio support
    fixed a bug from the recent search optimisations where a bare inbox search would not cross-reference with the file domain (so some trash could show up in a simple inbox/'my files' query)
    fixed an issue with searching for known urls by url class where the class was for a third-or-higher-level domain and was not set to match subdomains (this hit 4chan file urls for a few users)
    fixed the issue with 'open externally' button panel not clearing their backgrounds properly
    fixed some of the new unusual stretchy layouts in the options dialog
    removed overhead from subscriptions' 'separate' operation, which should stop super CPU hang when trying to split a subscription with hundreds of thousands of urls
    fixed an issue where the advanced file delete dialog would not show the simple 'permanent delete' option when launched from the media viewer's right-click menu
    fixed the select/remove actions for local/remote
    fixed 'set_media_focus' from manage tags to correctly activate the underlying media viewer as well as set focus
    stopped the 'file lookup script' status control from resizing so wide when it fetches a url
    fixed a rare mouse wheel event handling bug in the media viewer
    reduced db overhead of the 'loading x/y' results generation routine. this may help some users who had very slow media result loading
    cleaned up how the server reports a bootup-action error such as 'cannot shut down server since it is not running'--this is now a simple statement to console, not a full error with trace
    improved client shutdown when a system session shutdown call arrives at the same time as a user shutdown request--the core shutdown routine should now only occur once
    fixed an issue with thumbnail presentation on collections that have their contents deleted during the thumbnail generation call
    misc wx->Qt layout conversion improvements
    updated the github readme to reflect some new links and so on
    misc code cleanup

    mpv:

    rolled Qt back from 5.14.0 to 5.13.0 on the releases, which seems to have fixed our 'event queue sometimes halts until mouse move' issue that occurs after initial mpv load. some other ui and media viewer resize jank seems to be cleared up. I dunno what happened with 5.14, and I don't suspect it as the problem nearly as much as my currently borked Qt event processing code, but rolling back seems the easiest solution for now
    fixed an issue that was crashing non-windows that were able to load mpv
    mpv now loads an mpv.conf from install_dir/static/mpv-conf. please feel free to swap in another conf or edit that one as you like. I would be interested in feedback
    default mpv conf is now set to specifically enable some hardware acceleration to improve playback for some users, and to never load sidecar files like subtitles as this was introducing incredibly large load lag for users with large/high latency file storage
    fixed a new issue where preview windows were not unloading media (particularly significant for mpv with audio) on page change and client shutdown
    fixed an issue with global volume propagation to multiple open mpv widgets

    the rest:

    added two dark qss stylesheets from the user-creation github repo to the default install
    when zooming out from a zoom that makes the media bigger than the media viewer canvas to a zoom where it fits, the media will now recenter. see if you like this, maybe it should be an option
    to help forestall unnamespaced filename tag spam in various new-user scenarios, the 'filename' checkbox-and-namespace widget on the filename tagging options panel now initialises with 'filename' as the namespace
    fixed a recent window sizing issue with the 'the client is already running' dialog not appearing
    file export paths that include subdirectories that could possibly have empty text, like "[creator]/[page]", will no longer error when this is so (e.g. if a file in this case has no creator tags)--they will eliminate the subdirectory entirely, becoming "[page]". this should work for all platforms and for any nested subdirectory
    fixed an issue with some fractional dataspeeds below 1KB/s displaying with many significant figures
    improved some custom event handling definition code
    reworked hydrus's internal object publisher/subscriber messaging system to be more Qt-happy
    if the file import tagger is given a neighbouring .txt file to pull tags from that does not decode to utf-8 nicely, it now catches and reports the error more gracefully
    reworded a bit of the installing help and first-start popup to emphasise that hydrus does not auto-update
    added links to https://github.com/Zweibach/text/blob/master/Hydrus/PTR.md , a new guide for the PTR, to the help
    removed the old 'hardcoded shortcuts' help entry, since it is increasingly irrelevent

Changelog

    mpv:

    updated the prototype volume/mute controls on the top media viewer hover window to be a proper 'speaker' icon button for mute with a volume slider that pops up or down on mouse-over
    the new volume control is on the hover window and any media that has audio
    the right-click menu of the preview viewer and media viewer now have volume submenus to set mute/volume

    the client now has multiple volumes and mutes:

    for mute, there is a global mute which overrides everything, and the preview and media viewers have their own mutes that just apply there.
    under options->audio, you can choose whether preview windows have their own separate volume value, default is yes they do
    there is a new shortcut set called 'global', which applies on the main gui and the media viewer both, and which currently has actions to alter global mute. by default, ctrl+g flips global mute
    after reports of unusual rendering bugs for some users, the default mpv.conf is now more barebones. more work will happen here

    linux:

    the linux release is now built on Ubuntu 18.04 (was 16.04). unfortunately, my build packager bundled in a variety of surplus libraries, so the archive has bloated somewhat--I have removed some that I am confident are not needed, but I may have made a mistake, and there are likely more that can be taken away
    the linux release now comes with mpv support
    please let me know if you have any errors running this build or loading mpv. early tests seem good though!

    the rest:

    the launch/exit splash screen now uses a cleaner Qt-compatible layout system. It resizes and obeys stylesheets better, colouring text and background according to current style
    removed the 'has duration' text label option from 'audio and duration' options panel as it is no longer used, and renamed the panel back to just 'audio'
    the string transformation edit panel's individual transformation edit panel now shows that transformation step's example string and the transformed string, which is updated by button. this edit panel will get some more love soon, including dynamic hide/show of applicable controls and live updates of the example transformation as you type
    misc ui layout improvements

Changelog

    Shortcuts:

    The shortcut system now supports mouse double-clicks--left, right, or middle
    The shortcuts system now differentiates between press or release single mouse clicks--although complete support for release mouse events may be a bit patchy, as full mouse integration is ongoing
    The shortcut edit ui is now simpler--the command type is selected by a list, and the individual command sub-panels hide and show as appropriate--no more stupid 'set command' buttons
    The shortcut edit ui now has a 'restore defaults' button that will restore an individual set back to default settings
    Two new shortcut sets are added--'media_viewer_media_window' and 'preview_media_window'. they control pause, pause/play, open_externally, and close/launch_media_viewer respectively. they work on the static image viewer, the native animation widget, and the new mpv player, and they support mouse clicks. the old pause/play (formerly left-click) and open_externally (double left-click) commands are no longer hardcoded
    By default, the preview window's media window now launches the media viewer on a middle- or double-left-click
    'media_viewer_browser' shortcut set now has 'release right-click' bound to 'show_menu', a new command, which is no longer hardcoded
    Most menus across the program can now be opened with the keyboard context menu key
    The 'global' shortcut set now has 'exit_application', 'exit_application_force_maintenance', and 'restart_application' commands
    Fixed the rating increment/decrement command option not hiding in non-'media' shortcut sets
    Fixed some issues loading edit ui for shortcuts with rating actions
    significant refactoring and some cleaning of shortcut code

    The rest:

    Mpv windows should not longer get a single frame of previous-window-stretch when flicking between one mpv media to another with a different aspect ratio on the same media canvas. when a video is caught in a frame of loading, it should now flicker a frame of black
    Switching from one static image or native animation to another of the same type should be less likely to do a single frame of stretch when transitioning. when an image or animation transition is caught on a new frame, it should now flicker a frame the same colour as the media canvas background
    The string transformation edit panel's individual transformation rule edit panel has had some more work: much like with shortcuts, the controls now hide and show based on transformation type, the controls' text labels now change based on transformation type, and the example text now updates on any widget change. the manual 'update example' button is removed
    Fixed a typo that caused an error when establishing the correct mouse cursor to use over the volume control when hydrus was using PyQt5 (rather than PySide2)
    In order to reduce accidental micro-drags that cause mpv load-pause issues, starting a thumbnail drag now takes more pixels and requires a smoother drag to start, let's see how it goes
    Improved the show/hide logic of the floating autocomplete dropdown window. it should now also reliably detect when window focus goes from the dropdown itself to another window
    Fixed a bug where clearing the deletion record of a deleted tag would not remove the record from the fast cache that populates thumbnail tags (making it seem on most file loads that the tag still existed). if you were hit by this previously, please hit database->regen->a/c cache one time to resync the cache
    Relatedly, thumbnails should now correctly live-update their deleted tags on deletion record clearance updates
    If mpv is not available, opening the about window will now make a popup with the actual import error trace
    Significant refactoring of various ui code

Changelog

    mpv:

    the mpv window is now plugged into the slideshow system, so when an mpv window has played its media once, a media viewer browser currently slideshow-ing will now correctly know to move to the next media
    slideshows of videos should progress to the next file faster and more smoothly, with no more half-second blit of the start of the movie before the next file loads
    pausing video/audio is no longer cause for the slideshow to move on--now only the 'has played once through' check will naturally trigger it. you can now more reliably seek/scrub a video during slideshow
    the mpv window and native animation player is now better about pausing while a seek drag (scrub) is ongoing
    various music videos that have 1 frame should now show a seekbar correctly for the mpv window, with correct timecode based seeking
    fixed a bug in the video/audio resizing code that meant zoom in/out cycles would move a video player down a few pixels off center
    the blank audio mpv window now has basic hardcoded zoom support and will scale down to a too-small viewer window, so you can still access the seek bar
    fixed some 'has duration' calculations for audio/video that has duration but no frame count

    shortcuts:

    if a shortcut handler on an individual window does not have a double-click mapping for a command--and furthermore if none of its parent windows that are fully plugged in have one either--it will attempt to map the single-click version of the event as a backup. so now if you have an archive/delete filter, you can click fast again and the double-clicks will be interpreted as single-clicks (unless you map double-click to mean something else on the media_window or one of the media_viewer parents)
    the media viewers across the program are now fully plugged into the shortcuts system for key presses, and half-plugged in for mouse clicks
    'close_media_viewer' is added to all 'media_viewer' shortcut set types. enter/return/escape are now defaults for 'media_viewer' (applying to all), and middle-click/double left-click are now defaults for 'media_viewer_browser'. this is no longer hardcoded. if you are a madlad, you can now unmap all 'close_media_viewer' commands
    double left-click is now assigned to 'keep' in the 'archive_delete_filter' shortcut set. due to the new click/double click rules above, this means that by default double clicking a video/audio in the archive/delete filter will now mean 'keep and move on' on that fast second click!
    edit shortcut set ui now sorts its command list on load
    significant shortcuts refactoring
    general shortcuts code and debug code cleanup and improvement
    local file import pages and most downloaders will now report more file import steps to their status labels. most will blit by too fast to see, but if it hangs for a bit, you will now see the step it is caught up on. I imagine in most cases, this will be metadata generation for large videos
    fixed a variety of searches that could return files not filtered to the current file domain (e.g. files in trash while in my files, or not in ipfs while in ipfs) when the search did not include an inclusive tag
    updated the default danbooru file page parsers to get their new tag format, thank you to a user for submitting these
    a popup message now appears while sessions are loading. it auto-dismisses once the load is complete
    the edit media view options dialog (under options->media, launched from the filetype list) is now better at disabling non-applicable widgets based on filetype
    fixed an issue where clicking from the autocomplete dropdown floating window to the same control's text input could result in a single flicker-frame where the dropdown is hidden
    tightened the size of the splash screen white background. figuring out appropriate colour from the current stylesheet remains elusive lmao
    cleaned up and wx->Qt converted a variety of event handling code
    updated some 'mime' labels across the program to the new 'filetype' wording

Changelog

    gifs and mpv:

    the client now parses gifs for loop count metadata (some gifs say they should only be played x times through, usually 1). options->media now has a checkbox to control whether this value should be obeyed. both the native viewer and the mpv viewer should follow this. default value is still to loop indefinitely
    if gifs are set to play with the mpv player, those without duration will now still be loaded in the native image viewer. the media viewing options ui now notes this
    the mpv.conf file used in the mpv window can now be changed under options->media. it should update the conf for all open mpv players on options dialog ok. added to the hydrus static mpv-conf directory are three new 'test' mpv confs for high quality and two audio normalisation tests. all test feedback and recommended conf info is welcome

    ui cleanup and improvements:

    the media viewer mouse autohide time is now customisable under options->media, including disabling it completely. it defaults to 700ms
    improved the timing and reliability of the media viewer mouse autohide code
    the mouse should now never autohide while a dialog is open
    improved the bad colours of the splash screen. it should now be all one colour now, no ugly stand-out white square or other hardcoded colours. hydev also deployed his unparalleled gimp skills to get a white fade around the transparent-background hydrus icon, so it should look correct in darkmodes as well
    created a default_hydrus.qss file in the qss folder in order to handle formerly hardcoded colours using hydrus-specific classnames and properties. as well as being loaded by default, this qss file is prepended to any custom stylesheet, so any custom stylesheet that includes its own versions of the hydrus-specific entries will override the defaults. this qss will get more work in future
    added on/off buttons to hydrus default qss and converted existing object to use class and properties to obey this
    added a variety of valid/invalid/warning text colours to hydrus default qss and converted existing text objects to use classnames to obey this
    added accept/cancel buttons to hydrus default qss and converted all green/red buttons across the program to use classnames to obey this
    the migrate database dialog now has an outright 'remove location' button to reduce confusion and speed up removal of high weight locations
    if a location does not exist on the migrate database dialog, it will now stop throwing multiple error popups every time the list slightly changes, and will complain if file rebalancing is attempted, and will provide different 'remove' yes/no messages if that missing location currently has files or not
    slight ui touch-ups to the migrate database dialog
    if a window that remembers its position attempts to re-position to a location not on a current display, the windowing system now attempts to rescue it to the primary display, with appropriate popup messages given and errors caught more gracefully
    extended these off-screen rescue calls to windows that pull their position from their parent. e.g. if you open the options dialog while the main gui is half over the left side of your screen, it should rescue to the primary display
    windows that position off the center of their parent now calculate that reliably on the parent window, not just the parent widget, which never really worked as intended
    windows that have no position memory and no parent to pull center/topleft position from will now appear center/topleft of the monitor your mouse is on
    the splash screen now appears centered on the monitor your mouse is on
    cleaned up and improved a bunch of window/screen coodinate code, moving 'space on screen' calculations to 'space on screen minus taskbar' and similar
    unified a 'dialog is open' check across the program
    cleaned up the old wx->Qt size, coordinate, and colour conversion code
    cleaned up some old wx->Qt calculation code
    improved 'light' and 'grey' colour detection code to now work in HSV
    improved colour changing code to now work in HSV
    improved some internal single-shot scheduled job code

Changelog

    the sort-files-by dropdown is now a button that launches a nested menu. it still supports mouse wheel events. it should now be quicker to find what you want!
    added 'sort by framerate' to regular file sort. it works for file search at the db level as well, when mixed with system:limit
    under options->sort/collect, the namespace sort-by ui has finally had its makeover. it now has add/edit/delete buttons and up/down buttons for reordering how the entries will appear. it also deals with bad input better. furthermore, namespaces that have hyphens (like 'creator-id') are now supported in namespace sort (and hence collect-by dropdowns!)!
    numerical (multi-star) ratings can now be set by dragging the mouse across the line of stars
    added 'duplicate page' to the page tab right-click menu! it just makes a copy of the page or page of pages right beside it
    system:everything will now always show up in non-query-page autocomplete dropdowns (such as in the file maintenance dialog)
    wrote a maintenance routine to repopulate and correct the tag text search cache. it is possible to trigger this (though it is typically pointless) from the database->maintain menu
    updated the characters that are ignored in autocomplete tag text search rules, which help skip over unusual characters and assist word-break discovery for searching for tags like '[intensifies]'. as well as the previous brackets, braces, paretheses, quotes, and double-quotes, now slash, backslash, hyphens, and underscores(!) are ignored. searching for 'bbb' will now match a tag 'aaa-bbb', and searching for 'blue_eyes', 'blue-eyes', 'blue eyes', or 'eyes' will match all of 'blue_eyes'. 'blue-eyes', and 'blue eyes'!
    to effect the above change, the client will take a few seconds to a minute to update
    the above tag text search rules now collapse contiguous unusual characters, or combinations of whitespace and characters, better
    namespace and simple wildcard search inputs no longer have the tag text search rules applied to them, meaning you can now search for these unusual characters more specifically when desired
    updated the derpibooru gallery search objects to use their api, thanks to a user's submission. this re-enables the 'no filter' mode
    added watcher support for tvch.moe, which works with an existing 4chan-style parser
    the 'add the ptr' help item now warns the user about the ptr's modern drive storage requirements (4GB download+files, 25GB db). the help files are also updated
    I believe I fixed the sometimes crazy fast media drag-move that could happen in archive/delete and duplicate filters
    fixed an old uncaught wx->qt issue with the simple downloader where editing the formulae would throw an error
    fixed a bug in the 'move highlighted thumbnail' code in the rare case where the currently focused thumbnail can not be found
    text input dialogs are now mostly wider
    refactored some ui code, cleaning up core objects and import hierarchy
    did some controller/gui refactoring, pushing on untangling things
    cleaned up a bunch of no-longer-used import statements
    misc ui code cleanup
    slight rewording of database menu
    prepped shortcuts system to ignore a window-activating click (for the media viewer filters), but can't turn it on yet as media viewer clicks are not yet fully plugged in

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

    favourite searches:

    hydrus can now save, load, and edit favourite searches. this first system stores searches with a name and an optional folder name, and contains search predicates, file and tag domain, whether the search is live or not, and optionally sort-by and collect-by
    this is program-wide and all accessed through the new 'star' icon menu button beside any 'read' tag autocomplete input on search pages, duplicate pages, export folder ui, and file maintenance selection
    wrote a favourite searches manager
    wrote a dialog to manage favourite searches
    wrote a dialog to edit a single favourite search
    wrote load and save search functionality
    autocomplete dropdowns that have buttons beside them now stretch their floating dropdown windows across the button width also
    cleaned a variety of search code, simplifying objects and responsibility
    cleaned up some collect-by ui code
    refactored sort and collect controls to better location
    refactored search constants
    numerous small search code fixes and cleanup
    renamed clientguipredicates to clientguisearch

    the rest:

    a note from the users managing Hydrus Companion: The Chrome Web Store release of Hydrus Companion is no longer available due to publishing issues. If you have been using it in the past, please install the extension manually as outlined here instead: https://gitgud.io/prkc/hydrus-companion
    the default e621 downloader is updated to their new system, thanks to a user's submission. if you log in to e621 with hydrus or the hydrus companion and discover some tags are now blacklisted, please check your blacklist settings on your account on the site
    an old test e-hentai login script from 2018 that is no longer in the client defaults will be deleted from clients that still have it today. if the user has no other login script for e-hentai, the domain entry will be deleted as well. this removes potential technical barriers for users that wish to use hydrus companion to access e-hentai, which is now the recommended method
    hydrus mpv now has an appropriate stream title, which propagates up to the os-level sound mixer. it was previously the ugly hydrus filename
    improved error handling when mpv is passed an invalid conf
    the default mpv conf now has audio normalisation that seems to work ok
    fixed an issue with the 'delete/move out missing/corrupt file' file maintenance job where record deletes were not processing correctly. it now deletes the file record correctly and also clears that deletion record, to make re-import of the correct file, if found, easier
    all hydrus menu labels are now "middle...elided" when they are greater than 64 characters
    all new hdd, url, and simple download pages should now obey the 'remove files when trashed' rule. pages in existing sessions will not
    updated the user-created CutieDuck darkmode qss file to the latest version, which alters the recent hydrus qss styling colours like green/red button labels
    did a full pass of all service fetching--all file and tag services should now present in lists and tabs in service_type, alphabetical order, e.g. for manage tag siblings, the tabs will always be local_tags, tag_repositories, both in alphabetical order
    fixed an issue where a 'get darker or lighter comparison colour' calculation was not working well for black or very dark colours
    if subscriptions or general network traffic is paused, the bandwidth section of the main gui statusbar now says it
    the status bar now tooltips each section
    clarified some labels on the edit url class panel
    moved all delayed focus-shifting code to a more stable system
    cleaned up how the global icon cache is initialised and referenced
    updated the hydrus project gitignore to hide all db, log, server, recovery, and media files that could be under the db directory
    updated the endchan links in the help to have a .org secondary link
    more general code refactoring

Changelog

    Downloaders:

    The e621 file page parser is updated again, thanks to a user's contribution. this one gets md5 and file url more reliably, and also gets rating tag
    Added a 'e621 file page (old format)' url class to help match and search for files downloaded with the old format. please be aware there is no good solution to auto-convert old urls to a new format yet, so this connection does not (yet) solve the old/new comparison test
    Updated deviant art file post parser to use their json api. this should be more resilient to their current layout changes
    The nijie.info login script appears no longer to function. as with exhentai last week, it has been removed to make it easier to log in with hydrus companion. please use hydrus companion if you would like to log into nijie.info
    Updated file lookup scripts for 'iqdb danbooru' and 'danbooru md5' thanks to a user's contribution

    The rest:

    The way the mpv.conf works changes this week. it is now correctly fully portable, stored in the db directory beside the .db files. if this file does not exist, the 'default' as stored under the install_dir/static/mpv-conf folder will auto-populate it. if you have been using a non-default mpv conf, please re-set it one time after update, and you should be good
    The code that loads mpv.conf is now more graceful on 'missing file' errors, which now means when both the db conf and the default conf are missing
    Hitting escape on a tag autocomplete input that has text will now clear that text! note that hitting escape on an empty a/c input will still do 'lose focus' and then 'close dialog'
    Updated the slideshow logic so that if a media with duration has a shorter duration than the slideshow duration (e.g. a gif that lasts 0.5s on a 10s slideshow), the media will keep looping until the duration is up. media that has duration longer than the slideshow time will continue to play through once completely, delaying slideshow progression and then stopping promptly when it has finished
    The string transformation system now allows 'url percent encoding' under the encode/decode type!
    Fixed the 'only add existing tags' filter in the tag import options, which was denying all the tested tags. it seems to have been hit by a typo in the last three months
    The 'favourite searches' defaults now include an 'empty page' entry, which is a convenient way to simply clear a page. all users will also get this on update, feel free to delete if you don't like/need it
    Opening a new search page from a tag or an active search predicate ('open a new search page for...' or middle-click) now copies the file service (e.g. looking at trash) from the original page
    Opening a new search page in the 'all known files' file domain when the tag domain should be 'all known tags' (a currently unsupported combination) now coerces the tag domain to 'all local tags'
    Checkboxes should now appear again on the collect-by dropdown in Fusion (and hopefully any other) style
    Fixed an issue where entering 'namespace:*' explicitly would show the much less efficient wildcard search rather than the efficient 'anything' namespace search
    Fixed an issue where wildcard search could include multiple asterisks in a row
    Fixed an issue with page duplication where the main management object was not being duplicated properly until a session reload, meaning the two pages would sometimes share signals and changes
    An old wx delayed hide/show performance hack is removed, making the floating autocomplete dropdown now update more smoothly to resize or move requests, such as when the main gui window is dragged
    The program base installation directory is now calculated more accurately, both when running from source and the frozen build, and when launched using a symlink
    Install dir and db dir are now specified in the help->about window
    The petition page content checkbox list now has a taller minimum height
    Improved error text reporting in hydrus service login failure, hydrus service delay reason-setting, and all 'cancelled' errors across the program
    The review services panel now has elided... text. when unusually long errors propagate up to its status texts, it now won't suddenly jump to 2,000 pixels wide. full text appears in tooltips
    Code refactoring: the tag autocomplete input now now takes responsibility for the active predicate list above it
    Refactored some tag lists and added typing hints to improve how current page predicates are determined
    Did some prep work for tag filters supporting wildcards, but it isn't ready yet
    Cleaned up some wx->Qt data fetching code
    Misc code cleanup

Changelog

    Fixed a bug that was causing potential duplicates to be sometimes re-added between media groups that were previously set as false positive/not related. I apologise for the inconvenience this bug has caused. if you were hit by this, please reset your potential duplicate pairs (hit the cog button on the dupes page) and re-search, and the bad pairs should not be re-added again
    fixed an issue where tag autocomplete entry in the form 'namespace-blah:' was replacing the hyphen or other 'collapsable' character to space, which then was not searching correctly for the anything namespace search
    'namespace:anything' searches now work when the namespace itself has a wildcard
    fixed 'write' autocompletes not matching inputs with UPPERCASE letters
    fixed adding tags that start with a colon (e.g. ":D") in 'write' autocompletes
    it should now impossible to enter some 'kill my cpu' queries into tag autocomplete, such as '[asterisk]:anything', even if accidentally entered through the fast-add system
    the 'cancel search' stop button that appears after a search takes three seconds is back to being neatly embedded beside the tag autocomplete input box
    hitting the cancel search button now clears the non-interactable 'Loading' thumbnail media page (with its misleading 'Loading...' statusbar) and returns you to an empty thumbnail page
    loading a favourite search with non-immediate search no longer loads the 'loading...' page. it also saves that new non-immediate status to the page session more reliably
    reworked my linux build environment (pyinstaller=3.5, virtualenv=16.1) so that you can launch the built exe using a symlink
    rolling out a first version of a requirements.txt, any feedback would be appreciated
    rolling out another version of the derpibooru file page parser that no longer duplicates namespaced tags as unnamespaced, thank you to the user who submitted this

    Moving old pubsub system to Qt signals:

    all the 'refresh query' calls that do changes to the current file search across the program
    the current file and tag domain update calls for search pages
    the clear/set file focus calls when launching and exiting the media viewer browser or archive/delete filter
    the way thumbnails send the current focused media to the preview media window
    the way widgets with shortcuts-based tooltips are notified to update those tooltips when shortcuts change
    the way a thumbgrid sends the current tags to be displayed in the 'selection tags' list
    the way a thumbgrid adds newly imported files' tags to the 'selection tags' list as they fade in
    the way the 'searching/waiting' search button is flipped on and off by shortcut. btw what should be the correct name + label for this button? should it really be an icon?

    Cleanup:

    NOTE: the 'include' folder is renamed this week to 'hydrus'. if you have source patches, please update. as I further disentagle code in future, hydrus will ultimately move to typical nested folder/module structure
    decoupled the shortcuts edit ui code from the controller and db, unified how shortcuts are edited, and eliminated db wait when booting shortcuts editing
    decoupled the shortcuts manager from the controller, cleaned all the code, and moved to a nicer reference with proper typing hints
    refactored the frame and media controls of clientguicanvas into separate files
    renamed the hoverframes file to canvashoverframes and updated its classnames to 'canvas' rather than the old 'fullscreen'
    fixed two wx->Qt typo artifacts in the login script edit ui
    reduced some occasional idle memory bloat of clients that have large subscriptions
    cleaned up how media-based taglists are appended with new media
    removed some old booru object update code
    some misc setmedia/clearmedia cleanup
    misc search code cleanup
    misc typing hints to clear up pylint confusion

Changelog

    System tray icon:

    Hydrus now can now make a system tray icon for those OSes that support it. it can be buggy/crashy under non-Windows, where it gets some warning labels
    Under the new options->system tray page, you can set whether to show the system tray all the time, minimise the main gui to system tray, close-button the main gui to system tray, and start the program minimised to the system tray
    Right-clicking the icon brings up a menu to show/hide the ui, pause/unpause network traffic or subscriptions, and to exit hydrus
    The main file menu now has an option to minimise to system tray
    Double-clicking or middle-clicking the icon will show/hide the whole hydrus ui as long as there are no dialogs open
    Clicking it will restore the main gui from minimise or raise it to the front
    On an ui hide, the current preview window will be blanked and media viewers will be paused, so any ongoing noise/cpu from them should stop
    A new 'global' shortcut 'hide_to_system_tray' is now available
    Starting the client minimised may have some layout issues on first show--I particularly had to fix splitter layouts--please report any more you discover

    Framerate and num frames:

    System:framerate search added to system:duration panel. precise framerate is tricky with current hydrus info, so it searches +/- 5% of a given value
    System:number of frames added to system:duration panel
    Sort by number of frames added
    Duration/framerate/num frames sort moved to their own 'duration' submenu
    Framerate added to generic media metadata summary string (which appears in status bar and media viewer, etc...). precise framerate is tricky with current hydrus info, so it is rounded to the nearest integer

    The rest:

    Rolling in new danbooru file page parsers that should fix file downloads, thank you to a user for the submission
    Rolling in a e621 login script, thank you to a user for the submission
    Gave tag autocomplete results fetch code a pass, cleaning up several instances of incorrect or inefficient timing and caching logic and I believe fixing the issue where system preds would sometimes not be loaded after entering a tag
    Improved reliability of autocomplete dropdown hiding on background pages (some edge cases where these could still hang around should be fixed)
    Improved 'hide' tests in several parts of the program related to the new system tray icon, which should help some other cases--e.g. weird shutdowns now shouldn't ever leave a bunch of floating popup messages
    Fixed a bug where pages set to open with all known files/tags domains, which is not supported, was incorrectly substituting tag domain with a file domain, which is even more not supported
    Cleaned up some sort code--I believe this has fixed the odd issue where a 'time imported' sort would not work on some pages (such as one loaded from a favourite search)
    Fixed the 'related' tag suggestion box not knowing about new pending tags added in a manage tags dialog open on a media viewer after next/previous media transitions while the dialog is open. also it and the file lookup's lists now clear when a new lookup starts
    The tag suggestion boxes are now add-only and remove what you add as you add them! let me know if this feels nice or not!
    The splash window now has a different 'booting/exiting' window title, if you would like to hook it with a window manager
    Went over all the 'prep url for display', 'filter urls', and 'normalise url' requests across the program to deal with invalid url (e.g. garbled text) better
    You can now no longer add invalid urls via the client api associate_url call--you'll get 400 instead
    Cleaned some thumbnail selection and rendering code, particularly fixing some edge case 'where that media go?' issues where collect-by calls happen during thumbnail waterfalls and so on
    Cleaned up some page file domain setting code and misc page management code
    Improved accuracy of rendered image cache memory footprint calculations

Changelog

    db-level tag sibling cache:

    the hydrus client db now maintains a fast cache of current+pending tag-to-ideal-tag sibling relationships. it works for specific services and 'all known tags'. this is a nice tool and the first step in having a proper hard-baked siblings mappings cache
    the new sibling cache can be regenerated under database->regenerate. the 'autocomplete cache' entry under that menu is also renamed to the now more appropriate 'tag mappings cache'
    the db repair system can regenerate this new cache if any part is missing on boot
    the lookup that finds tag sibling matches for autocomplete uses this and is now faster, specific to the searched service, more accurate about status, and now includes pending siblings
    wrote a new unified object to manage a collection of tag siblings, it is now in use at the db level
    as I continue to develop this new fast tech, the old 'apply all sibs to all services' option, which was always buggy, may sometimes not apply in it. I will ultimately replace it with a fuller per-service choice system that will work quickly and properly and in the same unified way
    fixed a bug where only one local tag service's siblings would be matched at the ui level when looking at 'all known tags'
    fixed a bug in the file search code where searching for a tag that had an unnamespaced sibling going to it would result in searching for all possible namespaces of that sibling (e.g. searching for 'character:samus aran' when 'samus aran'->'character:samus aran' sibling existed would result in effectively 'anything:samus aran')
    when tag services are deleted, they are now better about cleaning up their siblings and parents quickly
    optimised some tag and hash id->value database cache population routines to improve performance for large queries (e.g. when fetching all the tag parents/siblings on boot). also these caches are now larger, 100k instead of 25k
    all cache regen code now forces an immediate analyze of the new tables to speed up imminent access

    The rest:

    updated the default e621 file page parser to get rating tags again (looks like their markup just changed again)
    updated the default sankaku file page parser to get their recently redefined 'genre' tags
    in edit subscriptions, the 'overwrite tag import options/check options' actions now initialise their dialogs with the current value for the first subscription, rather than the global program default
    in the edit subscription panel, the checker options button is moved down to the file/tag import options
    when not in advanced mode, the edit tag import options panel now has some red-text at the top to reinforce to new users that they should generally use the defaults
    the tag import options blacklist now secondarily checks against all known siblings of the parsed tags, rather than just the 'collapsed' ideal siblings
    subscriptions are now more aggressive about clearing out old urls from their file import caches--instead of clearing the 251st url after it has aged twice the death period, now they use just one DP. also, checkers with static checker timings will use five times that check period as DP if that is smaller. static checkers, or those that never die, will use a flat value of six months as DP if that is smaller
    moved a bunch of the debug 'data actions' to a new 'memory actions' menu
    significantly reduced how often the system tray regenerates its menu, which seems to improve stability
    fixed an issue where guis that were maximised before a minimise were restoring from a system tray icon click to normal view
    double-clicking the system tray when the ui is hidden should no longer do a fast show/hide
    fixed an issue where if the gui was minimised, the main animation timer would not run for other windows (e.g. a separate media viewer)
    improved ui shown/hidden tracking logic for the new system tray icon for different OSes
    fixed the 'refresh_page_of_pages_pages' shortcut action, which had faulty old wx code in it
    fixed a wx->Qt bug where modal popups that cannot be cancelled, and thus pop up a 'sorry, you can't dismiss this' text when you try to close them, were nonetheless still closing afterwards
    the hydrus client and server now attempt to listen their servers on both IPv4 and IPv6, failing gracefully if IPv6 is not available
    the 'is this a localhost request?' check now understands IPv6 localhost (::1 or ::ffff:127.0.0.1)
    may have solved a 100% cpu repaint issue with the a/c dropdown in some qt environments
    added info to installing help about Windows N and clean installs
    misc media viewer wx->Qt code cleanup
    misc code cleanup

    Experimental hellzone, be wary ye scabs:

    added an experimental 'sub-gallery url' url content type to the parsing and downloading system. this url is queued into the gallery log even if the primary gallery page found no file/post urls, and is meant for galleries that link to galleries. not yet ready for primetime, but feedback would be appreciated
    added an experimental ui-hang relief mode, activated under help->debug->data actions->db ui-hang relief mode, which should stop the ui hanging in unusual long-time ui-synchronous db jobs. it may cause other problems, so it is default off. it also prints begin/end statements to log for additional info. users who experience ui hang due to db job processing time are invited to play with this mode and report back results

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

Changelog

    cloudflare and network:

    the hydrus client now has an experimental hook to the cloudscraper module, which is now an optional pip module for source users and included in all built releases. if a CF challenge page is downloaded, hydrus attempts to detect and solve it with cloudscraper and save the CF cookies back to the session before reattempting the request. all feedback on this working/breaking irl would be welcome. current expectation for this prototype is it can pass the basic 'wait five seconds' javascript challenge, but only a handful of the more complicated captcha ones
    if a CF challenge page is not solvable, the respective fail reason for that URL will be labelled appropriately about CloudFlare and have more technical information
    the hydrus network engine now has the capability to remember recent serious network infrastructure errors (no connection, unsolvable cloudflare problem, etc..) on a per domain basis. if many serious errors have happened on a domain, new jobs will now wait until they are clear. this defaults to three or more such errors in the past ten minutes, and is configurable (and disableable) under options->connection. this will be built out to a flexible system in future, with per-domain options+status ui to see what's going on and actions to scrub delays
    basically, if a server or your internet connection goes down, hydrus now throttles down to limit the damage
    subscriptions now test if a domain is ok in order to decide whether they can start or continue file work, just like with bandwidth
    serverside bandwidth alerts (429 or 509) are now classified as network infrastructure errors
    I expect this system will need more tuning
    the hydrus downloader system now recognises when an expected parseable document is actually an importable file. when this is true, the file is imported. this hopefully solves the situation where a site may deliver a post url or a file

    the rest:

    the windows build of hydrus is now in python 3.7.6, up from 3.6. this rolls in a host of small improvements, including to network stability and security (e.g. TLS 1.3), and possibly a couple of new bugs in more unusual hydrus systems
    similarly, all the windows libraries are now their latest versions. opencv is now 4.2
    greatly sped up several file searches that include no tags such as bare system:rating, most system file metadata predicates, or bare system:inbox, when the result size is much smaller than the total number of files in the file domain
    thanks to some excellent work by a user, the Deviant Art downloader gets another pass--it can now get high res versions of images where they are available, and video, and flash, and pdf! the only proviso is that you need to be logged in to DA to get most content, otherwise you get 404. the current hydrus DA login script seems to work ok
    tag import options blacklists now test unnamespaced rules against namespaced tags. so if you blacklist 'metroid', a 'series:metroid' will be caught and the blacklist veto signal sent. this can be escaped with the 'advanced' exception panel, which now permits you to add 'redundant' rules
    the edit tag filter panel now explains the blacklist rules explicitly and has a second 'test' green/red text to display test results for a tag import options blacklist, with the new sibling and namespace check
    added some unit tests to test the new tag import options blacklist namespace rule
    when 'default' tag import options are set, the edit panel now hides the per-service options, rather the the previous disable
    the system tray icon now destroys itself when no longer needed, rather than hiding itself. it should now be more reliable in OSes that do not support system tray icon hide/show. if your OS still doesn't get rid of them, and you get a whole row of them, I recommend just leaving it always on
    the system tray now has a tooltip with the main hydrus title and pause statuses
    the timer that hides the mouse on the media viewer is now fired off when the window first opens (previously it would only initiate on the first mouse move over the window), so users who navigate mostly by keyboard should now see their cursors nicely hide on their own
    added some semi-hacky import/export/duplicate buttons to edit shortcuts. I'll keep working on this, it'd be nice to have import/export for whole shortcut sets
    added a semi-hacky duplicate button to the 'manage http headers' dialog
    the 'clear' recent tag suggestions button is now wrapped in a yes/no dialog
    a new checkbox under options->gui now lets you set it so when new cookies are sent from the API, or cookies are cleared, a popup message summarises the change. the popup dismisses itself after five seconds
    the client api now also returns 'ext' on /get_files/file_metadata calls, just as a simpler alternative if the 'mime' is a pain
    fixed a bug when petitioning tags through the client api, with or without reasons
    fixed an error where subscriptions that somehow held invalid URLs would not be able to predict some bandwidth stuff, which would not allow the edit subs dialog to open
    the string transformation dialog's step subdialog is now ok with example strings that are bytes. even then, this str/bytes dichotomy is an old artifact of python 2 and I will likely clean it up sometime so string transformers (and downloaders) only ever work utf-8 and hashes just work off utf-8 hex
    added a BUGFIX checkbox to options->gui that tells the UI to use Qt file/directory picker dialogs, instead of the native OS one. users who have crashes on file selection are encouraged to try this out
    updated running from source help with cloudscraper, a new pip masterline, and some windows venv info
    the 'import with tags' button on 'import files' dialog gets another rename for new users, this time to 'add tags before the import >>'. it also gets a tooltip
    handled an unusual rare error that could occur when switching out a media player inside a media viewer, perhaps during media viewer shutdown

Changelog

    Autocomplete cleanup:

    The text you type into tag autocomplete is now parsed in a unified object. all the variants of empty text, invalid text, valid text, namespace text, and wildcard text are all tested and fetched in one simple location with better code
    Autocomplete results caching is now a unified object that tracks and filters results in one location. wildcard searches are now never cached by accident, and switching from tag cache to system predicate cache and to non-initialised cache is instant and more reliable
    When an autocomplete, either in a search page or a context that manages tags, has results include multiple sibling variants of the typed text, they are now all elevated to the top of the list. the ideal is at the top, the entered text is next, and any known siblings follow
    The search character 'collapse' that ensures quote marks and hyphens and other odd characters are unified across tags now applies uniformly to all non-complicated-wildcard search tags, with namespace not collapsed and subtag always collapsed
    When entering an explicit wildcard search, both strict and autocomplete versions (whether they end with an asterisk) are now displayed
    The way tag results are filtered is now more accurate for some unusual wildcards
    It is now more difficult to slip cpu-killer search tags (weird asterisk combinations) through
    The quick-broadcast that happens when the user hits enter before any results have started loading now uses the unified object and chooses a safer and more reliable broadcast value. the test whether to do the quick-broadcast is also more reliable, particularly in unusual situations where a recent search was cancelled or delayed. note that for many users, the cache and search tech is fast enough that this very rarely triggers
    Searching with a wildcard below the autocomplete threshold can no longer trigger a full search, nor an invalid exact-text search
    Namespace count merging is now unified across db tag fetches and media fetches
    Include current/pending buttons now filter down to media-based tag autocomplete counts
    Namespace tag autocomplete queries will no longer show up some unusual siblings below the 'anything' tag
    Deleted a whole bunch of old a/c and caching code
    Added comprehensive unit tests for the new parsed autocomplete text object
    Added comprehensive unit tests for the new predicate results cache object

    The rest:

    Fixed a stupid typo bug in the new domain checking code that was stopping subscriptions with incomplete file queues from starting. I apologise for this
    Network error responses 502 (Bad Gateway) and 503 (Service Unavailable) are now treated as a retryable. the 503 is assuming it is not a CF challenge page. if they fail all retries, they are considered a network infrastructure error
    All other misc 5xx http responses are now treated as instant network infrastructure errors and will be logged in the new domain health tracker
    The exit splash screen now opens a bit earlier, so you now shouldn't have any momentary uncertainty where no windows are open
    Clients that start minimised to system tray should be better about restoring splitter positions on first show
    The various 'management panels', the panels on the left of main gui pages, now have smaller minimum width where available. the gallery and watcher panels are still the widest, which is a limitation of the current list tech. when it gets better column sizing code and selection memory, this will improve
    Fixed an issue loading gifs with some OpenCV versions
    Brushed up some running from source help
    Deleted the Py2To3 script that attempts to detect a legacy python 2 install
    Improved all the gui files' import order
    Cleaned up and refactored some subscription code
    Added a bunch of type hints to edit panel code
    Misc code cleanup

    Environment updates:

    Did second step of hydrus project structure improvement--now the project is split into subdirectories for core/client/server/misc and some client subdirs. work here will continue
    It isn't important, but hydrus is now built in python rather than directly from command line. my build scripts now include cloudscraper and the new hydrus source code tree in the build as they are, rather than hardcoded copying

    Some more suggested tags fixes/qol:

    favourite tags now correctly refreshes on new media
    the tag suggestion lists in manage tags now discard current and pending tags that all the current media already have, and all tag suggestion lists update this filter any time the media gets a tag content update! they should update live now
    all tag and predicate taglists now try to move the selection to a 'nice' neigbour when a keyboard enter activation results in the current selection being removed (e.g. as in these tag suggestion lists). the nice selection should be the tag after, before, or at the top of the list, and should make it nicer to keep navigating the list and add tags with your keyboard

    all tag and predicate taglists now try to preserve selection on simple clear-and-set data refreshes
    Deleted tags overwrite update:

    due to an unfortunate oversight, until now tag parsing has not filtered out previously deleted tags from the tags it parses and sends to the local database
    as the majority of downloaded files are parsed once per site per user and in a similar time window before manual editing ever occurs, and most non-tag-sibling-eligible bad tags are site specific or not parsed to begin with, and as these undesired tags were not broadcast up to the tag repository, this problem has not been very obvious and I believe has not affected most users too much. this is however a reason why some users who have more recently downloaded many older files are seeing smaller 'deleted mappings' counts on their ptr review panel (and some low quality tags in their db), as they have been re-adding previously deleted tags to their local store
    this has been fixed. tag import options now load the pending importee file's metadata before tags are filtered and discard currently deleted tags from those to be added or pended. this applies to parsed tags, additional tags, and those tags added through special other means, such as from a parent gallery page.
    if you do wish to allow parsed or additional tags to overwrite currently deleted tags for a particular job, the cog icons on the edit tag import options panel now allow you to permit overwrite for either
    tags added via hard drive imports or the migrate tags tool still overwrite deleted tags as before
    as this is a local-only problem, there is thankfully a retroactive fix for this issue for tag repository domains, involving a content reprocess run to re-apply deleted tags. I am not activating this automatically this week as this is a heavy job for the ptr and I need to study the true fallout of the problem more, but I may in future, likely as a smaller and more targeted maintenance job. advanced users can do it now under the ptr's review services panel
    I regret missing this, and I am sorry for any inconvenience. I only discovered it through the serendipity of some users recently reporting unusual deleted counts and a personal item in my todo to check the reliability of deleted mapping filtering for local tag domains--turns out it never got added, and we never specifically noticed, fugg
    there are now unit tests for the improved tag filtering pipeline and both of these new overwrite options

    The rest:

    hydrus can now use several different zoom 'centerpoints' about which to expand and shrink a zooming file. this was previously hardcoded to the center of the media. under options->media, you can now set it to be the media window center (the new default, which feels much nicer after a pan), the mouse cursor, the old media center, or the media top-left corner
    cleaned up the related zoom positioning code, and removed the jarring old re-centering off-screen rescue hack when zooming out to canvas zoom
    added a warning about big zooms to the media options page
    fixed tag autocomplete filtering in python 3.7 so 'character:aran' matches 'character:samus aran' again
    when the hover windows on a media viewer have focus, they should now pass up all options->shortcuts shortcuts to the media viewer
    mouse back/forward buttons should now be supported in the shortcuts system, as much as your OS allows them to work like regular clicks
    fixed a rare crash with the 'clear trash' button
    the client will now not re-analyze tables that have been previously scanned with at least 100k rows in the normal 'soft' maintenance cycle, as this is an expensive operation with limited benefit
    the client will now not vacuum database files greater than 1GB in the normal 'soft' maintenance cycle, as this is an expensive operation with limited benefit
    the new 'cannot vacuum because xxxx' log entry is now only ever printed once per boot. however due to the above change, it likely won't appear in the normal maintenance cycle anyway now
    cleaned up some vacuum code
    reworked the panel system to better test data validity vs 'woah, you sure you want to do this?' tests and generally cleaned and simplified the canok/cancancel/isvalid testing logic for all panels. panels like manage siblings will now not produce two message boxes if you try to ok them on an uncommited pair and then back out of the ok
    refactored the top level window code and improved scrollable panel code typing
    more standalone gui function code refactoring
    fixed a click-selection-test bug when clicking on certain whitespace in certain predicate lists
    the text of the cloudflare-specific error when encountering a captcha page is improved
    cleaned up some tag list menu copy and select code, both the menu labels and the copy action, for unusual tags. the 'copyable tags' fetching code is now flexible and unified for menu and action
    cleaned up the taglist sibling copy code, eliminating the chance of dupes
    fixed a little of the wording on the discard/exclude tag list menu labels for negated predicates, it still feels a bit awkward and I will keep working here
    cleaned up some old media metadata fetching code
    misc import code typing
    misc list/iterable typing improvements
    added some misc media-tag tool code
    unified the tag import options tag filtering pipeline somewhat to deal with the deleted overwrite situation
    improved a debug ui test to no longer need window focus
    misc help cleanup

    NOTES:

    the file notes system is more mature. files now store multiple named notes
    the edit notes ui is now a tabbed window with add/edit_name/delete buttons
    media results now load with their notes, so note access is instant
    thumbnails now show a notes icon when they have notes
    the media viewer top-right area shows a notes icon when the current file has notes
    clicking the media viewer top-right notes icon opens edit notes
    the edit notes menu entry now lists the number of current notes if there are notes
    added a 'system:number of notes' predicate. it has easy 'has/no notes' buttons for quick filtering
    the file notes database table will be updated on update, it shouldn't take long. existing notes will get the default 'notes' name
    duplicate notes now share the same storage space in the database
    in prep for a future search expansion, notes are now cached in the database for fast text search
    in prep for note parsing, wrote a 'note import options' object. it doesn't do anything in the program yet, but it supports multiple note conflict resolutions, note extension detection, and global and specific note renaming
    wrote unit tests for the new note import options

    TAG SEARCH STUFF:

    hydrus now maintains an internal mapping of direct 'searchable' versions of tags to the tags themselves, which allows it to now do fast exact-match (short search) and complicated wildcard lookups of tags with unusual characters. 'f' and '/f/' will now return '/f/' and 'board:/f/' quickly, 'board:f' and 'board:/f/' will return 'board:/f/' quickly, and 'te*a*' will correctly return 'test-tag'
    it will take a few minutes to regenerate this new cache on update
    complex wildcards like 's*m*' are now treated the same as simple ones like 'sam*' and should match unusual subtag characters in all cases
    wildcard tag file search predicates are now plugged into the new cache, so the search preds '/f/*', 'board:/f/', 'board:/f/ast;', 'b*d:/f/' and 'b*d:/f/*' now all match files with 'board:/f/', as do wildcards that include replacement characters, so the same should be true above for 'f' instead of /f/' in all cases
    new wildcard search preds do not collapse their characters for their presentation string, so 'date:2*-01-01' now renders like that, not 'date:2* 01 01'
    wildcard file search predicates are now faster for simple (just an asterisk on the end) subtag wildcards
    the fts search cache is moved from 'master' to 'caches' db this week, it will take a few moments on update
    the 'repopulate tag search cache' db regen job now repopulates the fts cache, the new 'searchable' cache, and the integer tag cache
    the database repair code now checks for the fts cache and new 'searchable' cache on boot and, if they are missing, warns the user and creates empty tables

    IMRPOVEMENTS:

    fixed the unsorted tags in tag suggestion boxes
    clicking the inbox icon in the top-right hover window now archives the file
    system:dimensions now has quick buttons for 16:9, 9:16, 4:3, 1:1, 1080p, 720p, and 4k
    system:known url searches are now better about fetching www and non-www urls for the domain or url class
    the edit shortcut sets panel now has nicer english names for reserved shortcut sets, and also sorts them in a more logical way
    you no longer have to be in advanced mode to copy file hashes from thumbnails
    users in advanced mode can copy the internal file_id of files from the thumbnail/viewer copy menus (this is most useful for the client api)
    system num_frames, num_words, and num_notes now display alternate 'has/no xxx' labels when they search for =0 or >0
    you can now search for 0 with system:num_frames

    FIXES:

    users who could restore from system tray using the menu but had trouble with clicking should now have better luck with clicking
    fixed some instances where fps could be calculated as 0, which would lead to other problems down the line. now a missing or 0 fps is remapped to 1
    fixed system:framerate for '<' queries
    the status bar cells now get expanded tooltips to describe what they do
    fixed some media result caching code that could in rare cases cause an error in content update processing when the result disappeared from the cache during processing
    the 'hard-replace siblings and parents' button on 'manage tags' now makes a submenu so its actions' long labels show better
    fixed a handful of tables that were not starting sorted
    a variety of credential parse and other server failures that were formerly returning 403 now properly return 400 and 409
    in order to improve default 'open externally' behaviour on Linux/macOS, if the environment variable XDG_DATA_DIRS is not preserved through a hydrus build launch env, hydrus now sets a simple 'default' value for this before running xdg-open
    if the client is booted from a windows shortcut to a built release, the program restart command is slightly more reliable

    MISC:

    cleaned up some db update error reporting code, it should now more reliably make an english-friendly popup text box before splurging technical info
    refactored some media object code, cleaned some class definitions, and added typing hints
    misc code cleanup
    the 'getting started' help files now have anchor definitions, so their sections can now be #linked to
    added several links in the 'getting started' help to the user-created video guides here: https://github.com/CuddleBear92/Hydrus-guides thank you for making these!
    added a link to the help for the user-made 'other archiving software' guide here: https://github.com/CuddleBear92/Hydrus-Presets-and-Scripts/wiki/0-Alternative-Programs-and-Resources#software thank you for making this!
    fixed link to AUR package in the help
    updated cloudscraper in all builds to 1.2.36
    updated windows mpv to a significantly newer dll, it now reports api version 1.108
    included libgpg-error.so.0 in Linux build, which will improve some Linux situations (more reports from Ubuntu 20.04 or others about missing/conflicting .so files are welcome)

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

Manage large media collections and re-organize them using tags instead of folders that you can share via custom servers with this application.

The Unlicense

Changelog

    regular changelog:

    added 'system:has/has no note with name xxx' to search for specific note names
    in the normal system predicate list, the notes pred is now the generic 'system:notes' to launch a combined dialog for both num notes and named notes
    favourite tag suggestions are now sorted in manage tags dialog according to the default tag sort
    page names will now middle...elide when there are too many to fit into a row (and normally left/right buttons would be added). if the elided tabs still do not fit, the buttons will pop up as before. added a checkbox to options->gui pages to turn this text eliding off
    pulled the 'page name' options on that panel into their own box and added some text regarding the 'my big row of import page tabs keeps scrolling weird' issue
    when files are pixel duplicates, the filesize and age comparison statements will now have 0 score and thus be coloured neutral blue
    the standard text entry dialog now always selects any default text it starts with, so you can now type to immediately overwrite. see how you like it and if there are some places where you think an exception should be made
    updated the IPFS interface to work with the new IPFS 5.0. all api requests are now POST so it doesn't 405, and the User-Agent is overridden to one that IPFS will not 403 at, and I fixed a typo the new api is more strict about
    a hack to get page splitters to lay out correctly on session load is rewritten from a hammer to a scalpel. pages now set their splitter positions on their first individual visible selection. this both reduces some minor ui lag on session/page load and improves splitter positions for clients that open minimised to the system tray
    a long-time odd issue where loaded sessions would initially select the top-left-most non-page of pages is fixed. now the bottom-left-most page of any kind is selected
    fixed tag autocomplete selecting the bottom-most pre-loading result. it now correctly selects at the top
    fixed an issue setting certain values (typically loading a default) to a tag import options panel
    the client is now more aggressive about clearing subscriptions from memory when they are finished running
    in windows, the main method that copies files now checks for modified time of the source file. if it is before 1980-01-01 UTC, it does not copy the file metadata, as some Windows has trouble with this lmaoooo
    cleaned up how some thumbnail 'current focus' media determination code works. should have fixed some weird errors when hitting certain shortcuts on collections
    cleaned up basic list/sort code across the program
    the 'queue' and add/edit/delete listboxes now emit change signals when new items are added or imported
    pyparsing, a helper for cloudscraper, is now correctly bundled in the built releases. a new line in help->about displays this
    help->about now lists cloudscraper version
    updated the discord link to the new https://discord.gg/wPHPCUZ

    upcoming string processing changes for advanced users:

    I extended string parsing code this week, but I am not yet ready to turn it on. when it does come on, it will change all formulae from the fixed string match/converter pair a combined general string processing 'script' of n steps
    wrote a new 'string splitter' object that takes one strings and splits it into up to n strings based on a separator phrase (such as ' ,')
    wrote an edit panel for string splitters
    wrote a new 'string processor' object that holds n ordered string match/converter/splitter objects and filters/converts/splits x strings into y strings based on those steps
    wrote an edit panel for string processors. it has a notebook that live updates with test results for each step on every update
    wrote unit tests for string match
    wrote unit tests for string converter
    wrote unit tests for string splitter
    wrote unit tests for string processor
    refactored string conversion edit panels to their own file
    refactored string conversion controls to their own file
    misc string processing cleanup and labelling improvements

    technical url parsing stuff:

    urls are now stripped of leading and trailing whitespace during normalisation, just in case a paste contains some extra whitespace. previously, it would sometimes throw a 'doesn't start with http' error
    the hydrus url normalisation process now normalises the hostname according to the NKFC unicode format, meaning unusual characters like ?and e◌́ are now replaced with their normalised visual equivalent ? and é, and hence these urls will no longer throw errors when they are added
    if '?' or '#' end up in a hostname (which are invalid characters), it is now converted to _, just to stop complete parse mangling when weird urls are submitted. this character replacement may become more sophisticated in future
    the hydrus downloader should now support search terms that include '#'
    download query parameters that contain '%23' ('#', encoded) are now not unquoted in url normalisation

Manage large media collections and re-organize them using tags instead of folders that you can share via custom servers with this application.

The Unlicense

Changelog

    new tag search options:

    there are several new options for tag autocomplete under the newly renamed services->tag display and search:

    for 'manage tags'-style 'write' autocompletes, you can now set which file service and tag service each tag service page's autocomplete starts with (e.g. some users have wanted to say 'start my "my tags" service looking at "all known files" and "ptr"' to get more suggestions for "my tags" typing). the default is 'all known files' and the same tag service
    the old blanket 'show "all known files" in write autocompletes' option under options->tags is removed

    you now can enable the following potentially very slow and expensive searches on a per-tag-domain basis:

    you can permit namespace-autocompleting searches, so 'ser' also matches 'ser*:*', i.e. 'series:metroid' and every other series tag
    you can permit 'namespace:*', fetching all tags for a namespace
    you can permit '*', fetching all tags (╬ಠ益ಠ)
    '' and 'namespace:' wildcard searches are now significantly faster on smaller specific tag domains (i.e. not "all known tags")
    short explicit wildcard searches like "s*" now fire off that actual search, regardless of the 'exact match' character threshold
    queries in the form "*:xxx" are now replaced with "xxx" in logic and display
    improved the reliability of various search text definition logic to account for wildcard situations properly when doing quick-enter tag broadcast and so on
    fixed up autocomplete db search code for wildcard namespaces with "*" subtags
    simplified some autocomplete database search code

    string processing:

    the new string processor is now live. all parsing formulae now use a string processor instead of the string match/transformer pair, with existing matches and transformers that do work being integrated into the new processor
    thus, all formulae parsing now supports the new string splitter object, which allows you to split '1,2,3' into ['1','2','3']
    all formulae panels now have the combined 'string processing' button, which launches a new edit panel and will grow in height to list all current processing steps
    the stringmatch panel now hides its controls when they are not relevent to the current match type. also, setting fixed match type (or, typically, mouse-scrolling past it), no longer resets min/max/example fields)
    the string conversion step edit panel now clearly separates the controls vs the test results
    improved button and summary labelling for string tools across the program
    some differences in labelling between string 'conversion' and 'transformation' are unified to 'conversion' across the program
    moved the test data used in parsing edit panels to its own object, and updated some of the handling to support passing up of multiple example texts
    the separation formula of a subsidiary page parser now loads with current test data
    the string processing panel loads with the current test data, and passes the first example string of the appropriate processing step to its sub-panels. this will be expanded in future to multiple example testing for each panel, and subsequently for note parsing, multiline testing
    added safety code and unit tests to test string processing for hex/base64 bytes outcomes. as a reminder, I expect to eliminate the bytes issue in future and just eat hashes as hex
    cleaned up a variety of string processing code
    misc improvements to string processing controls

    the rest:

    double-clicking a page tab now opens up the rename dialog
    system:time imported now has quick buttons for 'since 1/7/30 days ago'
    all hydrus downloaders now accept percent-encoded characters in the query field, so if you are on a site that has tags with spaces, you can now enter a query like "simple%20background red%20hair" to get the input you want. you can also generally now paste encoded queries from your address bar into hydrus and they should work, with the only proviso being "%25", which is "%", when all bets are off
    duplicates shut down work (both tree rebalancing and dupe searching) now quickly obeys the 'cancel shutdown work' splash button
    fixed a signal cleanup bug that meant some media windows in the preview viewer were hanging on to and multiplying a 'launch media' signal and a shortcut handler, which meant double-clicking on the preview viewer successively on a page would result in multiple media window launches
    fixed an issue opening the manage parsers dialog for users with certain unusual parsers
    fixed the 'hide the preview window' setting for the new page layout method
    updated the default gelbooru gallery page parser to fix gelb gallery parsing
    updated the newgrounds parser to the latest on the github. it should support static image art now
    if automatic vacuum is disabled in the client, forced vacuum is no longer prohibited
    updated cloudscraper for all builds to 1.2.38

    boring code cleanup:

    all final mouse event processing hackey is removed from the media viewers, and the shortcut system is now fully responsible. left click (now with no or any modifier) is still hardcoded to do drag but does not interfere with other mapped left-click actions
    the duplicates filter no longer hardcodes mouse wheel to navigate--whatever is set for the normal browser, it now obeys
    cleaned up some mouse move tracking code
    clicking to focus an unfocused media viewer window will now not trigger the associated click action, so you can now click on archive/delete filters without moving on!
    the red/green on/off buttons on the autocomplete dropdown are updated from the old wx pubsub to Qt signalling
    updated wx hacks to proper Qt event processing for splash window, mouse move events in the media viewer and the animation scanbar
    cleaned up how some event filtering and other processing propagates in the media viewer
    deleted some old unused mouse show/hide media viewer code
    did some more python imports cleanup
    cleaned up some unit test selection code
    refactored the media code to a new directory module
    refactored the media result and media result cache code to their own files
    refactored some qt colour functions from core to gui module
    misc code cleanup

Changelog

    Improvements:

    the media viewer and thumbnail right-click->manage menus now have a viewing stats->clear action, which does a straight-up delete of all viewing stats record for the selected files. 'edit' will be added to this menu in future
    extended the tag autocomplete options with a checkbox to allow 'namespace:' to match all tags, without the explicit asterisk
    tag autocomplete options now permit namespace searches if the 'search namespaces into full tags' option is set
    the tag autocomplete options panel now disables and checks the namespace checkboxes when one option overrules another
    cleaned up some tag search logic to recognize and deal with 'namespace:' as a query
    added some more unit tests for tag autocomplete options
    the html and json parsing formulae now support negative indexing, to select the nth last item from a list
    extended the '1 -> "1st"' ordinal string conversion code to deal with negative indices
    the 'hide tag' taglist menu actions are now wrapped in yes/no dialogs
    reduced the activation-to-click-accept time that the shortcuts handler uses to ignore activating clicks from 100ms to 17ms
    clicking the media viewer's top hover window's zoom buttons now forces the 'media viewer center' zoom centerpoint, so if you have the mouse centerpoint set, it won't zoom around the button where you are clicking!
    added a simple 8chan.moe watcher to the defaults, all users will get it on update
    the default bandwidth rules for download pages, subs, and watchers are now more liberal. only new users will get these. various improvements to db and ui update pipeline mean the enforced breaks are less needed
    when a manage tags dialog moves to another media, if it has a 'recent tags' suggestion list with a selection, the selection now resets to the top item in the list
    the mpv player now tracks when a video is fully loaded and only reports seek bar info and allows seeks when this is so (this should fix some seekbar errors on broken/slow-loading vids)
    added 'undelete_file' to media shortcut commands
    file delete and undelete are no longer hardcoded in the media viewer and media thumbnail grid. these actions are now handled entirely in the media shortcut set, and added to all clients by default (this defaults to (shift +) delete key, and also backspace on macos, so likely no changes)
    ctrl+mouse wheel is no longer hardcoded to zoom in the media browser. these actions are now handled entirely in the 'all' media viewer shortcut set (this defaults to ctrl+wheel or +/-, so likely no changes)
    deleted some old shortcut processing code
    tightened up some update timers to better halt work while the client is minimised to system tray. this may improve some users' restore hanging issues
    as Qt is happier than wx about making pages on a non-visible client, subscriptions and various url import operations are now permitted to create pages while the client is minimised to taskbar or system tray. if this applies to your situation, please let me know how you get on here, as this may relieve some restore hanging as the pending new-file jobs are no longer queued up

    Fixes:

    clicks on hover window greyspace should no longer propagate up to the media viewer. this was causing weird archive/delete filter actions
    mouse scroll on hover window taglist should no longer propagate up to the media viewer when the taglist has no more to scroll in that direction
    fixed an issue that meant preview windows were initialising about twenty pixels too short for the first page loaded in a session, and also pages created within nested page of pages. also cleaned up some logic for unusual situations like hidden preview windows. one more cycle of closing and reopening the client will fix the option value here
    cleaned and unified some page sash setting code, also improving the 'hide preview window' option reliability for advanced actions
    fixed a bug that meant file viewtime was still being recorded on the duplicate filter when the special exception option was off
    reduced some file viewtime manager overhead
    fixed an issue with database repair code when local_tags_cache is missing
    fixed an issue updating a very old db not recognising that local_tags_cache does not yet exist for proper reason and then trying to repair it before update code runs
    fixed the annoying issue introduced in the recent string match overhaul where a 'fixed character' string match edit panel would not want to ok if the (now hidden) example string input did not have the same fixed char data. it now validates no matter what is in the hidden input
    potentially important parsing fix: JSON parsing, when set to get strings, no longer converts a 'null' value to 'None'
    the JSON parsing formula now allows you to select the nth indexed item of an Object (a JSON key->value dictionary). due to technical limitations, it alphabetises the keys, not selecting them as-is in the JSON itself
    images that do not load in PIL no longer cause mime exceptions if they are run through the decompression bomb check

    Misc:

    boosted the values of the decompression bomb check anyway, to reduce false positives. it generally now has a problem with images with a bmp > 1GB memory
    by default, new file import options now start with decompression bombs allowed. this option is being reduced to a stopgap for users with less memory
    'MimeException' is renamed to 'UnsupportedFileException'
    added 'DamagedOrUnusualFileException' to handle normally supported files that cannot be parsed or loaded
    'SizeException' is split into 'TagSizeException' and 'FileSizeException'
    improved some file exception inheritance
    removed the 'experimental' label from sub-gallery page url type in parsing system
    updated some advanced help regarding bad files
    misc help updates
    updated cloudscraper to 1.2.40

Changelog

    subscription data overhaul:

    the formerly monolithic subscription object is finally broken up into smaller pieces, reducing work and load lag and total db read/write for all actions
    subscriptions work the same as before, no user input is required. they just work better now™
    depending on the size and number of your subscriptions, the db update may take a minute or two this week. a backup of your old subscription objects will be created in your db directory, under a new 'legacy_subscriptions_backup' subdirectory
    the manage subscriptions dialog should now open within a second (assuming subs are not currently running). it should save just as fast, only with a little lag if you decide to make significant changes or go into many queries' logs, which are now fetched on demand inside the dialog
    when subscriptions run, they similarly only have to load the query they are currently working on. boot lag is now almost nothing, and total drive read/write data for a typical sub run is massively reduced
    the 'total files in a sub' limits no longer apply. you can have a sub with a thousand queries and half a million urls if you like
    basic subscription data is now held in memory at all times, opening up future fast access such as client api and general UI editing of subs. more work will happen here in coming weeks
    if due to hard drive fault or other unusual situations some subscription file/gallery log data is missing from the db, a running sub will note this, pause the sub, and provide a popup error for the user. the manage subscription dialog will correct it on launch by resetting the affected queries with new empty data
    similarly, if you launch the manage subs dialog and there is orphaned file/gallery log data in the db, this will be noticed, with the surplus data then backed up to the database directory and deleted from the database proper
    subscription queries can now handle domain and bandwidth tests for downloaders that host files/posts on a different domain to the gallery search step
    if subs are running when manage subs is booted, long delays while waiting for them to pause are less likely
    some subscription 'should run?' tests are improved for odd situations such as subs that have no queries or all DEAD queries
    improved some error handling in merge/separate code
    the 'show/copy quality info' buttons now work off the main thread, disabling the sub edit dialog while they work
    updated a little of the subs help

    boring actual code changes for subs:

    wrote a query log container object to store bulky file and gallery log info
    wrote a query header object to store options and cache log summary info
    wrote a file cache status object to summarise important info so check timings and similar can be decided upon without needing to load a log
    the new cache is now used across the program for all file import summary presentation
    wrote a new subscription object to hold the new query headers and load logs as needed
    updated subscription management to deal with the new subscription objects. it now also keeps them in memory all the time
    wrote a fail-safe update from the old subscription objects to the new, which also saves a backup to disk, just in case of unforeseen problems in the near future
    updated the subscription ui code to deal with all the new objects
    updated the subscription ui to deal with asynchronous log fetching as needed
    cleaned up some file import status code
    moved old subscription code to a new legacy file
    refactored subscription ui code to a new file
    refactored and improved sub sync code
    misc subscription cleanup
    misc subscription ui cleanup
    added type hints to multiple subscription locations
    improved how missing serialisable object errors are handled at the db level

    client api:

    the client api now delivers 'is_inbox', 'is_local', 'is_trashed' for 'GET /get_files/file_metadata'
    the client api's Access-Control-Allow-Headers CORS header is now '*', allowing all
    client api version is now 12

    downloaders:

    twitter retired their old api on the 1st of June, and there is unfortunately no good hydrus solution for the new one. however thanks to a user's efforts, a nice new parser for nitter, a twitter wrapper, is added in today's update. please play with it--it has three downloaders, one for a user's media, one for retweets, and one for both together--and adjust your twitter subscriptions to use the new downloader as needed. the twitter downloader is no longer included for new hydrus users
    thanks to a user's submission, fixed the md5 hash fetching for default danbooru parsers
    derpibooru gallery searching should be fixed to use their current api

    the rest:

    when the client exits or gets a 'modal' maintenance popup window, all currently playing media windows will now pause
    regrettably, due to some content merging issues that are too complicated to improve at the moment, the dupe filter will no longer show the files of processed pairs in the duplicate filter more than once per batch. you won't get a series of AB, AC, AD any more. this will return in future
    the weird bug where double-clicking the topmost recent tags suggestion would actually remove the top two items should be fixed. general selection-setting on this column should also be improved
    middle-clicking on a parent tag in a 'write' autocomplete dropdown no longer launches a page with that invalid parent 'label' tag included--it just does the base tag. the same is true of label tags (such as 'loading...') and namespace tags
    when changing 'expand parents on autocomplete' in the cog button on manage tags, the respective autocomplete now changes whether it displays parents
    this is slightly complicated: a tag 'write' context (like manage tags) now presents its autocomplete tags (filtering, siblings, parents) according to the tag service of the parent panel, not the current tag service of the autocomplete. so, if you are on 'my tags' panel and switch to 'all known tags' for the a/c, you will no longer get 'all known tags' siblings and parents and so on presented if 'my tags' is not set to take them. this was sometimes causing confusion when a list showed a parent but the underlying panel did not add it on tag entry
    to reduce blacklist confusion, when you launch the edit blacklist dialog from an edit tag import options panel, now only the 'blacklist' tab shows, the summary text is blacklist-specific, and the top intro message is improved. a separate 'whitelist' filter will be added in the near future to allow downloading of files only if they have certain tags
    'hard-replace siblings and parents' in manage tags should now correctly remove bad siblings when they are currently pending
    network->downloaders->manage downloader and url display now has a checkbox to make the media viewer top-right hover show unmatched urls
    the '... elide page tab names' option now applies instantly on options dialog ok to all pages
    added 'copy_bmp_or_file_if_not_bmpable' shortcut command to media set. it tries copy_bmp first, then copy_file if not a static image
    fixed some edit tag filter layout to stop long intro messages making it super wide
    fixed an issue where tag filters could accept non-whitespace-stripped entries and entries with uppercase characters
    fixed a display typo where the 'clear orphan files' maintenance job, when set to delete orphans, was accidentally reporting (total number of thumbnails)/(number of files to delete) text in the file delete step instead of the correct (num_done/num_to_do)
    clarified the 'reset repository' commands in review services
    when launching an external program, the child process's environment's PATH is reset to what it was at hydrus boot (removing hydrus base dir)
    when launching an external program from the frozen build, if some Qt/SSL specific PATH variables have been set to hydrus subdirectories by pyinstaller or otherwise, they are now removed. (this hopefully fixes issues launching some Qt programs as external file launchers)
    added a separate requirements.txt for python 3.8, which can't handle PySide2 5.13.0
    updated help->about to deal better with missing mpv
    updated windows mpv to 2020-05-31 build, api version is now 1.108
    updated windows sqlite to 3.32.2

Changelog

    Subscriptions:

    as subs can now load more flexibly, previously hardcoded waits are now eliminated

    the subscriptions manager now only waits three seconds after initial session load to boot (previously 15)
    the subscriptions manager now wakes as soon as the subscriptions dialog is ok'd or cancelled
    a timing calculation that would delay the work of a sub up to five or fifteen minutes if more queries would come due for sync in that time window (in order previously to batch to reduce read/write) is now eliminated--subs will now start as soon as any query is due. if you were ever confused why a query that seemed due did not boot after dialog ok or other wake-up event, this should no longer happen
    re-added the import/export/duplicate buttons to manage subs. export and dupe may need to do db work for a couple of seconds and will have a yes/no confirmation on larger jobs
    the import button on manage subs accepts and converts the old 'legacy' subscription object format, including a copy/paste of the objects backed up to disk in the v400 update
    fixed an issue where creating a subscription query and then deleting it in the same manage subs dialog session would result in surplus data being written to the db (which the next dialog launch would note and clear out)
    an unusual error with pre-run domain checking, exposed by the new subscription code and e621 subs, where the gallery url has also recently changed, is now fixed

    Issue tracker:

    the Github issue tracker is turned on again! it is now run by a team of volunteer users. the idea is going to be to try to merge duplicate feature suggestions with the proper platform and put some discussion and cognition and prioritisation into idea development before it gets to my desk, so I can be more focused and productive and so 95% of feature suggestions do not simply get banished to the shadow realm of the back of my todo
    this is mostly intended for wishlist and other suggestions, as the tsunami was just getting too much for me to handle, but we'll see how it goes for things like bug reports as well. I'll still take any sort of report through my normal channels, if you are uncomfortable with github, or if you wish for me to forward an item to the issue tracker anonymously
    the website, help documents, and hydrus help menu links have been updated regarding the issue tracker

    The rest:

    improved how the database 'update default downloader objects' job works, ensuring that new defaults are better at simply take the place of existing objects and do not break/reset existing url class to parser links
    tightened up how automatic url class to parser linking works, eliminating some surplus and potentially bad data related to api links. furthermore, whenever the links between url classes and parsers update, existing surplus data, which may creep in when api links change, is now cleaned from the data structure
    rolling out updated e621 url class and parser to deal with their alternate gallery url format
    rolling out an updated derpibooru parser that will link to the new api class correctly
    thanks to a user's submission, rolling out updated versions of the new default nitter parsers that pull creator:username tags
    before every subprocess launch, and when waiting for all subprocess communication (e.g. to ffmpeg), now tests regularly for program shutdown. if an unusual situation develops where a subscription is doing a file import job while the OS is shutting down, and that system shut down would hang or is hanging on a 'ffmpeg can't be launched now' dialog, the hydrus client should now notice this and bomb out, rather than going for that never-running ffmpeg. this may not fix all instances of this issue, and further feedback on the client not closing down cleanly with the OS is welcome.
    when adding a new path to the 'migrate database' panel, any symbolic links will be converted to canonical equivalents
    added some location checks and appropriate errors when the database is doing file storage rebalancing
    fixed an issue uploading swfs, video, or audio to the server when it is launched from a frozen executable build
    misc code cleanup

Manage large media collections and re-organize them using tags instead of folders that you can share via custom servers with this application.

The Unlicense

Changelog

    in many situations--such as a search result that gives no results, or a search cancel, or a downloader page cleared of a highlight--pages will now report a special status text rather than '0 files', such as 'no results for this search' or 'search cancelled!' (issue #277)
    new pages, and the first page of a loaded session, should now correctly publish their status text to the status bar immediately after initialisation, (previously blank until first change)
    clicking the 'searching immediately' button while a search is ongoing now correctly cancels a search, cleaning up status and page and buttons, rather than just stopping current work immediately
    added 'copy_xxx_hash' shortcuts to the media shortcut set for 'md5', 'sha1', and 'sha512'
    when copying file hashes to clipboard, a popup appears for two seconds to verify what happened
    when copying file hashes to clipboard, recovery from missing hashes is more graceful, with multiple error report states
    the way the client shuts down is untangled. the order in which the gui, managers, threads, database are shut down is smoothed out, with better error handling and fewer potential logical holes
    the 'should I do shutdown work?' dialog is now only presented in the clean shutdown pipeline
    menu labels now elide at 128 characters, extended from 64 previously. hopefully this strikes a better balance between fixed texts we do want to read while still not letting long dynamic texts go nuts (issue #276)
    gallery and watcher pages now have 'show file/gallery log' on their menus, which directly zoom in to the edit dialogs for the top-most selected query or watcher (issue #256)
    when file maintenance is forced to run from the thumbnail menu or file maintenance job panel, it now provides x/y progress text and gauge based on total jobs, e.g. 1,234/10,000, rather than out of the 256-job batches (issue #264)
    the simple downloader page now updates its pending jobs list more efficiently, and supports multiple selection, and presents a yes/no confirmation on delete
    most lists with clipboard/png import/export buttons can now also do .json files. they also accept json files in a drag and drop. you can mix json and png files in a multi-file drag and drop
    when selecting a parser for a url class in 'manage url class links', those parsers with example urls that match the url class are now separately listed at the top of the choice dialog
    in the recent autocomplete rewrite, the hidden repository update file domain was accidentally exposed in the file domain button. after some testing, it actually works(!), but as this is an advanced topic, it is now hidden behind advanced mode
    the way services are deleted or completely reset is now changed to what should be a significantly faster and smaller operation
    the latest user-made nitter/twitter downloader is rolled in to the update. some little fixes and adds support for mobile.twitter.com url imports
    fixed an issue where uninitialised repositories thought they were caught up
    to reflect that it does nothing in this case, the mouse shortcut edit panel now disables the press/release choice on double-click or scroll
    fixed file save dialogs not filling in the default filename properly
    removed an old wx safety hack where new pages would silently not create while the client was minimised. this fixes issues with large session loading and subscriptions publishing files to page names that do not yet exist while the client is minimised
    removed an old wx safety hack where some tag lists would not regen their current tag display while the client was minimised
    in lieu of a future better bit of html subscription help that I link to from the subscription panel, the 'file limits' help button has temporarily briefer text so it doesn't make such a giant popup
    moving back to pyinstaller 3.5 (from 3.6) for the windows build, which appears to fix some dll loading for some users (issue #244)
    the windows and linux builds are updated to Qt 5.15 (from 5.13.2). it does not seem to have the odd problems 5.14 gave us. let me know if you have any trouble or if any weird graphical issues magically fix themselves

    client api:

    the /get_files/file_metadata call has a new true/false parameter, 'detailed_url_information', default false, that adds 'detailed_known_urls' structure to list the known urls results as in /add_urls/get_url_info. it has a help example and a unit test and everything (issue #235)
    the client api version is now 13

    boring cleanup details:

    reshuffled the shutdown code. now the controller takes the lead, booting splash as appropriate and commanding gui to save and close, and then proceeds to other shutdown
    fast and normal shutdown code is unified, just run differently
    shutdown calls should now always be idempotent
    a catch for some OS-level shutdown commands, normally user log-off, also hooks into the newer UI-free fast shutdown
    SIGINT and SIGTERM also hook better into the new shutdown, and are thread safe
    performing multiple SIGINTS on shutdown should no longer throw an error after the gui is deleted
    more potential startup/shutdown errors are now caught and presented to the user and saved to log, with subsequent shutdown urgency accelerated afterwards
    critical errors on a fast shutdown no longer present to the user--they just save to log
    updated how an emergency shutdown state is tested
    updated how a 'clean exit complete' state is set and tested
    various unusual shutdown states now skip human interaction and jump straight to guaranteed fast shutdown
    refactored splash window to its own file
    wrote a new qlistwidget subclass to do some common data storage/retrieval/selection. it will eventually replace most lists across the program
    the 'queue' list widget that has up/delete/down and add/edit buttons beside a list has nicer backend code and now initialises with its buttons correctly disabled due to no selection
    the similar 'add/edit/delete' list widget is updated to use the nicer backend
    some wx->Qt list hacks, which were themselves using borked old display-string-based indexing, are deleted
    the repository download/process daemon has been moved to the newer job scheduler. it should start up and close out on program exit a bit more neatly
    untangled some messy value-change radio button code in the shortcut edit panel
    updated the way page status text propagates up from the thumbnail grid to the main gui to Qt signals instead of the old inefficient pubsub
    all UI file hash clipboard copying code is now unified and improved
    added a new subscription file publish debug test to help->debug->gui
    refactored some client specific time delta rendering code out of core to client
    misc event cleanup code
    misc code style cleanup

Changelog

    Shortcuts:

    Shortcuts have a backend update this week. a bunch of hacky stuff is now cleaner behind the scenes, and the related UI has some cleanup as well
    Converted all 100-odd simple shortcut commands from hacky text ids to a proper enumerated id system, and across every single instance across the program
    Wrote nicer descriptive labels for all simple shortcuts. gone is 'focus_media_viewer', now is 'keyboard focus: to the media viewer'
    If you have no like/dislike or numerical services, the respective application command edit panels now say so and do not allow an ok action
    Like/dislike rating sub-panels now start with 'like' checked
    When a like/dislike or numerical rating sub-panel is set to 'remove', the action dropdown is set to 'set' (rather than flip) and is disabled, as is the numerical slider
    Application commands now state better "3/5" information about rating actions, rating than the underlying "0.6" float implementation
    All application commands existing in shortcuts or elsewhere are updated to the new enumerated id system
    Refactored ApplicationCommand (the side of shortcuts that holds the actual action to be done) and its edit UI to new separate files
    Completely refactored the application command edit panel, pulling the simple/tag/rating sub-panels into their own decoupled classes, simplifying the tangle and permitting easier future expansion
    Rearranged some application command functions and contant definitions to more appropriate locations
    Improved how application commands are interrogated by the objects that process them
    Added plenty of type hinting around application command processing code
    Cleaned up a bunch of shortcut and application command code, including some wx->Qt updates as well

    Menu and UI cleanup:

    Removed an old wx hack that prohibited last-second ui updates. the exit splash screen now reports final db shutdown info
    If a service or account is currently non-functional (e.g. all repositories are paused), the appropriate status text is now in red
    If there is work to do the first time a duplicate page is opened or looked at, it now moves to the 'preparation' tab
    Doing a 'migrate database' file migration now temp-closes the migrate db dialog and hides the main gui while it goes on
    Brushed up the tag filter ui a bit--now only one of the tag_filter/blacklist test phrases only show up, in the appropriate context, and the test text input now supports multiple newline-separated tags (e.g. if you want to paste a bunch)
    Every panel on review services now has a refresh button to force an update
    the 'clear trash' button on the trash review services panel is now disabled when there is nothing to clear
    updated edit subscription panel to point to the main html help and brushed up that help to talk about file limits more, also the earlier downloader help has a little section to highlight subscriptions and their use
    reworked the 'restore from db backup' command--it is now integrated into client shutdown proper, and reports its basic restore progress to the exit splash screen
    reorganised the 'network' menu. manage subs is now up top, downloader submenus are now split better into high-level vs component-level, and login stuff is pulled to its own submenu
    Put 'network traffic' at the top of the network->pause menu
    Rearranged some of the 'gui' and 'gui pages' option pages and tucked everything into box sections for clarity
    The search pause/play button on search page tag autocomplete now has a simpler 'search paused' label when paused. the code has a similar nomenclature change, and eventually this will turn into a simple pause/play icon button or similar
    Fixed some weirdness with floating autocomplete dropdowns sometimes not appearing on dialogs on first load
    Fixed some focus logic so set-focus calls on downloader pages should work again on the query input text box and elsewhere
    Unified all numerical rating->stars and stars->rating calculations across the program. this may have fixed some edge-case bugs
    Unified all rating string generation across the program

    The rest:

    The disk cache options under options->speed and memory are now default off and force-set off for all users on update. as more users are on decent ssds where these options are of limited value (and sometimes negative value), I now only recommend them for users on HDDs
    Added two options for autocomplete results list height to 'gui pages' option page, under the new 'controls' section
    Fixed a critical issue where the client api could duplicate-add tags with url imports to multiple services. the potential service duplicate cascade order was pseudorandom and particular to a client. thanks to a user for figuring this issue out (issue #317)
    Added a 'tag whitelist' to downloader tag import options. its edit button is below the blacklist. when there are no tags in the list, it does nothing, but if tags are added, then files that do not have at least one of the given tags at the download source will not be imported. for instance, if you have a username-based downloader (where you can't add more tags to the query to filter serverside), and you only want their metroid content, you can now filter it simply hydrusside (issue #279)
    If you are both in advanced mode and a mad lad, the basic blacklist tag filter now allows you to show the 'whitelist' and 'advanced' panels again, if you have a complicated blacklist to set
    The local booru and client api now support the same https as the hydrus server, using self-signed certificates stored in the db directory. just set the checkbox in manage services and you should be good. self-signed certificates are free and will work on a server hosted off an IP address, but they are imperfect. they are also likely to require special permission to be accepted by the web browser or whatever you want to talk to the https service. however, if you host your client from a real DNS domain and have your own fully signed cert+key files, you can swap them in no problem
    Local booru and client api urls adjust scheme for the new option, and unified and cleaned up how booru share urls are generated internally
    The way cert+key files are generated is moved from server code to common hydrus code
    Cleaned up how additional db files like certificate files and the mpv conf are managed for backup/restore operations
    Cleaned up some ancient http urls to https. mostly stuff like the regex tutorial links
    When files are appended to a regular search page (e.g. from a subscription publish to an existing page, or from a mouse drag and drop), the search will now pause. this is to stop accidental F5 or mass refresh signals wiping out the changed page
    To break advanced-case gallery search loops, gallery url jobs now have a 'run' identity token. galleries pass their token down to 'next page' or 'sub-gallery' urls they generate, meaning all urls of a particular search run share the same url. gallery logs now ignore to-be-added urls that already exist for their token, terminating loops. new tokens are generated if a search is restarted or similar, meaning duplicate urls can exist in a gallery log, just not from the same starting point (issue #302)
    Improved simple gallery url deduplication in several stages of the downloader pipeline
    When right-clicking on multiple thumbs, the info lines off the top menu item now list the files' combined viewtimes (this previously only showed when one file was selected)
    Fixed some error reporting problems with adding urls to import via the client api--some url class exceptions were being converted from 400 to 500 errors unintentionally
    A new stylesheet, 'Hydracula', is added to the default install. check it out under options->style. thank you to a user for contributing this
    Subscriptions are better about calculating a 90 second forgiveness window for bandwidth rules. they should schedule and startup more effectively, and the edit subscriptions and single edit subscription panels should also no longer show bandwidth delays below the next 90s, which are often a technical situation of regular work breaks that are better ignored for the purposes of the dialog
    Went back up to pyinstaller 3.6 again on windows, as 3.5 caused its own Qt bindings dll problems. if you had trouble with 3.6 (401), let me know how this works for you, as there are additional dll-finding fixes included (issue #329)
    Fixed an issue where under some conditions, file save dialogs were only happy with filenames that already existed (issue #319)
    Fixed an issue with the 'client already running' system sometimes not closing the client process correctly when told to cancel the boot
    Bumped the 'space needed for vacuum' estimate up to 120% (was 100%) of estimated final file size, just to catch some edge cases
    Rolling out updated danbooru parsers that pull associable urls correctly, thank you to a user for this fix
    Rolling out an updated deviant art parser that finds some unusual file urls when other methods fail, thank you to another user for this fix (issue #295)
    Upgraded cloudscraper to 1.2.42
    Improved some type hinting
    Fixed up some unit tests for new command and rating data

Changelog

    Column lists:

    All multi-column lists across the program now remember the widths of their columns when they are next recreated
    The last column of any list is now universally the 'stretching' column, which should correctly initialise with its preferred/previous size, but also grows and shrinks with the parent window
    While all lists retain their initial rows height, and those in the gallery and watcher management panels will continue to grow and shrink in a fixed way, all lists in dialog windows can now be shrunk down to four rows
    The minimum size of any column is now much smaller, about three characters
    All column headers now tooltip their name
    Lists should be better about sizing in non-100% OS UI scalings
    The lists that are automatically sorted (e.g. the download pages, and manage subs) now remember the last sort you gave them

    Future plans, now within reach:

    All lists will sort, sort arrows will appear on the header, and sort will be faster
    Columns will be rearrangeable
    Columns will be hide/showable, and initially hidden complicated columns will be available
    There will be some, maybe optional, capability to have lists sync live, so if you edit one, the others do the same
    Num rows height memory, maybe--we'll see how the above shakes out first

    Boring code changes:

    Moved list code to a new sub-module
    Wrote a status object for column list current columns, widths, and sort, and plugged it into list code
    Wrote a manager to handle column statuses, and plugged it into the main controller and db
    Wrote definitions for every list (66 or so different lists!) and all their columns, and unified width, name, default sort, and future hideabality and default hide/show status to that one easy to edit and extend location
    Rewrote list column and sort initialisation to work off the new status object and added hooks for list sorting and column resizing to save new status back
    Rewrote every list column instantiation to use the new system
    Numerous misc column list code cleanup

    The rest:

    Double middle-clicking on the page tab bar should now correctly close two tabs in a row (rather than opening the rename page dialog on the second)
    Entering an odd number of hex characters into system:hash no longer causes an error. this will be changed in future to properly highlight and explain badly pasted or incorrect-length hashes in future
    The new red text for non-functional status texts in review services now properly re-colours itself between normal/red when an error or resolution occurs while the panel is open
    Hydrus now knows if it is running in the Haiku operating system and has preliminary platform specificity. if you are interested in helping to get hydrus running properly in Haiku, please join in with github issue #358
    Cleaned up a mix of smaller code, unused variables and imports and so on

Changelog

    Tag search:

    System:number of tags now supports namespaces, for example 'find files with two character tags'! (issue #280)
    It also supports wildcard namespaces, as now do regular namespace search predicates. both run faster. "crea*:anything" is now possible
    System:number of tags has been optimised, and in many cases is now ten to a hundred times faster
    System:number of tags still does not support siblings, something I hope to start correcting as of v408
    Both tag existence (numtags =0 or greater than 0) and tag count database routines now respond quickly to 'cancel search' commands, so if you do run a slow query (a bare 'has creator tag' search on 'all known files' on the PTR, for instance), you can now back out quickly after the 'stop' button appears
    Note that 'system:number of character tags greater than 0' and '= 0' are equivalent to +/-character:anything, which will be swapped in if you enter these. also, +/-unnamespaced:anything can now appear
    The program is a bit better about determining =0 and greater than 0 and less than 1 being 'none' and 'any but none', when it needs to determine optimisations and special labels
    Unfortunately, I am taking away the default value for system:num tags in the options page (edit: I am killing the whole panel now). this old ugly mess of stacked predicate edit panels works on ancient, difficult to update code, so I will retire it and replace it with a unified system that is easy to use, supports in-search system predicate editing, and keeps up with changes automatically
    System:number of tags is now comfortable with redundancies--if you add >2 and >4, it now knows that >4 is the true lower bound (previously, the one used was random)

    Boring code changes here:

    Updated tag existence and tag count searches to take advantage of the tag cache when in a specific file domain (which is pretty much all the time), which should speed them up significantly
    Updated tag existence and tag count searches to more carefully plan their queries, speeding them up both in advantageous and difficult situations
    Cleaned up tag existence and tag count code significantly
    Updated all edit system predicate panels to return full predicate objects, a step towards decoupling them and allowing in-place system predicate editing
    Wrote a new number test object to hold and help with number range test values. num tags now uses it, and eventually all range predicates will too
    The namespace existence search code ('anything' queries) is now folded into the new generalised tag existence search code
    Streamlined how the search context propagates through all database tag searching--now, most queries do not know or care about domain or current/pending status--they just iterate over n tables as determined by a specialised routine
    Added a handful of unit tests for the new namespace num tag searching.

    Database repair:

    The database menu has a new entry, 'repopulate truncated mappings tables', under the newly renamed 'check and repair' submenu, which will try its best to 'fix' a client.mappings.db file that has been truncated due to hard drive fault by repopulating from the local-file-only tag cache. do not run this unless you know you need to
    The 'help my db is broke.txt' document has a full update pass. the language is clearer, common issues and questions are better addressed, two new recovery routines are added, a section on the stages after boot recovery (like the new repopulate job above) is added, and I added my stock 'now become a backup patrician' nag at the end
    The debug routine to clear cached service info numbers is now moved to the 'regenerate' database menu. this thing fixes hanging incorrect 'pending' counts until I can fix it properly.

    The rest:

    Fixed an issue where when you pasted queries into a subscription, those that were already in the sub (and got the dialog saying so), were being added anyway! I believe this bug came in the last few weeks, after the data storage rewrite. please check your pasted-into subs for dupes
    Fixed tab double middle-click behaviour (so you can spam page close), which I thought I had fixed last week but actually messed up completely right at the end (issue #314)
    Cleaned up some more of the page tab event code--it was a mess all around. should all be on Qt now, no wx hacks
    Network jobs will no longer wait for and consume bandwidth start tokens while all network traffic is paused. all bandwidth competition now halts. (previously, they would continue to consume tokens according to current rules and then all rush to start as soon as traffic was resumed)
    Fixed some client booru/client api requests to correctly 404 on missing file results, rather than 500
    Cleaned up some file sort code and fixed the sort string conversion, which was rendering the opposite sort direction (asc/desc) in summary labels (e.g. on manage favourite searches)
    Cleaned up some ui layout stretching code, including some borked tag import options expand sizing
    Improved some button and padding layout definitions, and improved, slightly, the way the top-right media viewer hover window lays itself out and changes its size on media change
    Improved some review services layout. should be fewer weird heights and widths in unusual situations, and the new multi-column list fits better
    The manage subs dialog now saves its changes to db more cleanly and atomically
    Updated the default derpibooru parser to pull species tags. ten points if you can guess what that is most of the time

Changelog

    Subscription management:

    The manage subscriptions dialog now has a 'deduplicate' button. it is enabled whenever your subs of a particular downloader contain duplicate queries. it launches a semi-bananas but thorough 4-step process to ask if you want to do upper/lower-case deduplication, then which downloader, then which queries, then which master sub(s) to retain the queries
    Subscription dedupe within the same sub keeps the query with the most files
    The manage subscriptions dialog also now has a 'lowercase' button that coerces all queries of the selected subs to lowercase
    When pasting a list of queries into a subscription, the 'already in sub' test is now caseless. pasting "Samus_Aran" into a sub already with "samus_aran" will not add anything

    Misc:

    Url classes now have a checkbox to keep fragment data (e.g. "#kwGFb3xhA3k8B") during URL normalisation. this data is not sent to the server and is not useful for almost all sites, but for sites like Mega, it contains useful clientside javascript navigation or access info if you open the URL in your browser
    Fixed video resolution parsing for some unusual SAR files. this stretches a video slightly, usually when the vid was created or converted with older analog tech (e.g. NTSC)
    Fixed rating system predicate label for 'rated/not rated'
    The issue where miscounts in pending upload data would persist, sometimes leading to an annoying 'pending (13)' style menu that would not clear without debug action, is now fixed in a cheap way. on any upload action, this cached count is reset. a fix for the actual unusual miscount situation will have to come later
    The different in-memory manager objects now save changes at different time intervals--lightweight things like favourite searches still save not long after any change, but column widths, network sessions, and bandwidth use now save only every ten minutes
    I may have fixed an issue with favourite tags not sticking correctly or resetting when added en masse via the tag right-click menu
    I believe I fixed a rare but permanent ui hang on highlighting a gallery or watcher when that same downloader was spamming through a largely 'already in db/previously deleted' list
    Copying tags 'with counts' now works correctly for simple tag views (previously, it only worked for 'predicate' views)
    Copying tags now preserves the tag order as in the list (previously, it did a human sort)
    To stop status-sorted gallery and watcher list entries bouncing around so much, they now just say 'working' in their status column when they are working. the highlight panel still reports granular file/gallery info. galleries also now say a more solid DONE when complete, to spot them more easily
    The gallery and watcher search/checking column now includes stop status in sort
    Fixed the dowloader link in the help to https://github.com/CuddleBear92/Hydrus-Presets-and-Scripts/tree/master/Downloaders
    Added that same link to the Lain dowloader import panel's help button
    Updated cloudscraper to 1.2.46
    Updated cloudscraper interfacing code to adapt for new reCaptcha->Captcha object names

    Boring code cleanup:

    Refactored downloader gui code to its own file
    Refactored network gui code to its own file
    Refactored service gui code to its own file
    Finished import reordering. now all files import in a cleaner order
    Further reworked all hydrus imports to be more breadth-first, loading core modules earlier and catching potential errors in nicer places
    Checkbox selection is now wrapped in the 'quick' dialog system, and all checkbox selections now use this single method
    Simplified and unified a variety of layout code, and fixing some odd layout expanding bugs
    Misc code cleanup
    Deleted some old unused ui code

Changelog

    Sibling prep:

    I am preparing for a new siblings database cache for v408. this will ultimately make siblings (and parents) faster, more accurate, more powerful, and simple to undo. I have decided, as part of it, to make siblings and parents completely virtual (i.e. the tags won't exist for real, they'll be implied). better tools to manage hard-replace siblings and parents will come later, as trying to support both situations at once has not been excellent
    Created options to hold per-service sibling and parent preferences, so you'll be able to set up '"my tags" siblings and then "ptr" siblings apply to "my tags"' or 'no parents apply to this service' wrote UI for the sibling options under 'services->manage where tag siblings apply'. you can play with it if you like, and it saves values, but it is not plugged in yet and makes no changes siblings logic is a little tighter. the db and gui side of siblings structure calculation is more unified, petitioned siblings are discounted properly on all generation, and the db side now resolves conflict decisions the same on every regen. the gui-side still runs on an older structure, but will be updated to exactly mirror the db updated and unified how large numbers of raw tag siblings are fetched in the database. it also supports fast tag slicing, speeding up sibling cache maintenance. the siblings lookup cache now uses this method for regeneration and update calls

    The rest:

    Tag right-click menu copying now supports all combinations of selected/all, tags/subtags, and no_count/with_counts where appropriate (issue #325) if the media viewer is too thin for the top hover window to fit into its space, the top-right hover now drops down below it. I don't really like how this looks, and will probably instead figure out a flow layout so the toolbar buttons always fit, but at least they are now accessible (issue #388) altered the above fix--if the top-right hover window can be shrunk to fit in the available space, it will now squeeze in, only bumping down if it can't moving the mouse off an activated (e.g. clicked) hover window now instantly activates the main canvas. this should fix up some fast swallowed clicks and annoying click-to-activate issues with the center-right duplicates hover window, which does not hide (issue #384)
    The duplicates hover window now positions correctly if its min size is too wide to fit in a thin media window if you make changes to a parser or content parser, there is now a yes/no confirmation when trying to cancel the dialog fixed an issue where 'queue' listboxes with no edit button would throw an error on double-click. now double-click in this case deletes fixed a couple of timestamp convertions that were doing YYYY/MM/DD instead of the more ISO-nice YYYY-MM-DD. also, when in UTC, they'll correctly say UTC now instead of GMT (issue #369)
    Fixed some borked centered text layout on ratings dialog and import folder dialog fixed the manage services dialog's wrong headers for type/name columns
    Added links in the official help to the new user-written simple help guide at https://github.com/Zweibach/text/blob/master/Hydrus/Hydrus%20Help%20Docs/00_tableOfContents.md
    Moved object tag and ratings code to a new client module, 'metadata', and pulled various ratings gui code into a new separate file refactored some more manager code around to generally more sensible locations did a bit more work chasing down the highlight-downloader ui deadlock, which unfortunately still exists
    Reduced the number of db hits some paged downloaders need, particularly on highlight and init
    Updated some test code to support cleverer db testing
    Updated mpv for windows build. api version is now 1.109. this fixes at least one weird linux vm audio driver issue

    tag siblings cache:

    tl;dr: siblings are faster and better now, you don't have to do anything. some parents will not appear with new downloads - don't worry about it, they will all fill back in nicely soon
    wrote the first version of a 'tag display' cache, which stores not your tags as they are, but how they appear after display rules such as siblings, parents, and filtering are applied, meaning this data need not be calculated every time on thumbnail load. this week marks the first concrete step forward in an improvement of siblings and parents storage, and begins with just siblings. all siblings and front-end tags work should be generally faster and more accurate
    part one is for tag domains cross-referenced with file domains. it maintains virtual sibling-collapsed mappings and autocomplete counts through mappings added, deleted, pended or pend-rescinded, files added/deleted, and siblings added/removed
    part two is for tag domains on the 'all known files' domain (i.e. no file domain). it maintains virtual sibling-collapsed autocomplete counts through mappings added, deleted, pended or pend-rescinded, and siblings added/removed
    both parts also support full table drop/regen (under the new database->regenerate->tag display mappings cache) for when my logic inevitably miscounts something. the existing regen 'tag mappings cache'/'tag siblings lookup' commands also regen the display mappings cache, since it relies on them
    when tag siblings on a repository are petitioned to be deleted, they are now instantly discounted from tag sibling application (previously, they had to be uploaded and committed to count, now both pending and petitioned offer a quick preview of outcome)
    the display cache supports the tag sibling service application rules under the 'services menu', and regen when that changes, so you can now turn siblings on and off, and apply them across services. as a result, the old 'apply all siblings to all services' option is now gone! as parents will undergo a similar change soon, and the siblings changes this week may lead to some undesired parents in the interim, the 'apply all parents to all services' option is also gone
    tag autocomplete counts in the form (x-y) due to siblings are eliminated. it will still do it when combining the same merged tag across different services, or when an unnamespaced tag includes how many potential namespaced will also be found
    the following search types now obey tag sibling application rules accurately: number of tags search, namespace:anything search, wildcard search, tag search (on a per-tag-domain basis, previously it was globally hacked to all siblings), tag-as-number search. for instance, if you search series:anything, a file that has 'metroid' tag-siblinged to 'series:metroid' will now correctly appear.
    the above search types are now exact to how the tag displays. if you have for files that are tagged 'samus' on either tag service A or B, and service B has a sibling for that to 'character:samus aran', searching for 'samus' gets the results in A, 'character:samus aran' gets the results in B. previously it was an expensive logical mish-mash of 'sure, try and get everything behind the scenes'. now it searches what you see
    searching for files in the advanced 'all known files' domain currently has no sibling support for the above search types. autocomplete counts should be good, and the results that come up should have the correct tag display, but the actual results are calculated based on storage tags. getting this to work without doubling the size of the db is tricky, so it will have to be ongoing work
    all tag siblings are now completely virtual. this means that when a tag comes in via a downloader or other means, it will not be automatically coerced to its ideal sibling in the actual db storage tables (the true tags you see in manage tags dialog), but remain as it is. there is no change in sibling appearance in normal operation--it still displays and searches as its ideal sibling. the same will happen to parents in the coming months, and in the interim period, parents no longer apply across siblings. as siblings can come and go from anywhere, they are now divorced from actual stored tag mappings. in a similar way, the manage tags dialog no longer supports the 'hard-replace siblings and parents' command, nor the 'auto-replace with sibling' command. this may be jarring to workflows and preferences, so please bear with me and let me know what feels particularly bad. and please don't worry too much about parents not always being added in the meantime--I hope to do the same transition for them in four of five weeks, and all gaps will be filled in. also, in the coming weeks, I expect to improve manual tagging workflow by indent-grouping edit-view siblings together (ditching the old 'will display as' text) for easier review and selection, a bit like parents. actual 'hard' siblings and parents that do always get irreversibly renamed/added in storage will come in the future as a separate system
    the 'add_siblings_and_parents' client api parameter no longer adds siblings, and soon will be retired completely
    I had wanted to completely eliminate the old UI level siblings manager this week, but there are still some systems, mostly tag autocomplete work, that need it and are tricky to swap. I stripped it down, at least, and reduced its update delay to 2 seconds. therefore, the 'loading tag siblings' step of boot still occurs, albiet a little faster. I hope to have it gone soon
    this is some complicated code affecting core systems. almost everything 'siblings' is now different. there are likely to be laggy parts, awkward new workflow, and possibly some update or miscount bugs as I iron it out. the good news, now they are all virtual, is that problems are undoable. please report any issues, and I will work on it as I keep pushing on this and on parents

    please expect your client.caches.db file to expand in size about 10-30% or so this week. the update itself will take a few minutes as the improved tag lookups and new caches are regenerated from empty
    boring mostly db optimisation list:

    after some thought, moved those new options for tag sibling application down to the db. previously, they were stored in an UI object for convenience, but since everything is going down to the db, it is worth doing it properly down there. thus they reset this week to the default
    I also removed that complicated 'all known tags' page in the tag sibling application options--it wasn't doing enough to justify itself
    tag siblings lookup cache now obeys the tag sibling application rules and regenerates the appropriate cache when the options change
    tightened up the db tag siblings lookup cache and wrote more tools for it. it had a couple of blind spots for getting all siblings in a chain. also optimised the lookup for en-masse tag operations
    tightened up my tag sibling structure builder object, which was not eliminating loops but collapsing them to (generally harmless, but not desireable) (A,A) pairs
    extended mappings and siblings lookup caches to perform various sorts of tag sibling collapse filtering, to determine files that do or do not have another tag mapping on a tag sibling chain
    optimised the existing mappings cache in several ways
    optimised cross-domain file cache mappings filtering, and cleaned the code
    optimised autocomplete count fetching from the mappings cache, particularly for large result sets
    optimised how the combined autocomplete count generates from nothing
    optimised how tags are loaded for search results (thumbnails)
    optimesed basic tag search
    greatly optimised how the mappings caches request cross-domain file cache filtering
    broke up the rescind_pending/add mappings job into simpler separate parts, which was needed for accurate display cache counting. this may end up fixing the other weird pending miscount bug we had
    the cached 'display' tags are now loaded with regular media results, not generated on the fly on first request (unless in the advanced 'all known files' domain, where it is done quickly on first load at the db level)
    converted the db over to using its local sibling lookup cache for all sibling jobs
    all data-level content updates to media result objects now occur in the database loop, reducing lag and eliminating a single UI event loop gap when the objects the UI relies on were desynchronised
    optimised how the tag and hash id-to-definition cache maintains itself
    cleaned up cache code generally
    wrote a ton of unit tests to cover construction, tag, and tag sibling operations on the siblings and display caches
    wrote a second optimised method for regenerating 'all known files' display cache autocomplete counts from nothing, which, when multiple siblings have wildly different counts (e.g. 50, 100, 200000), instead of counting them all, counts the smaller tags sans the largest, and adds this to the already pre-computed largest count
    the old ui level siblings manager has been pared down to some final tools that will be trickier to replace

    the rest:

    fixed the stupid manage tag siblings dialog input/ok bug I introduced last week
    fixed the pair preview label in manage tag siblings dialog when it asks to enter a reason for a remove petition
    I believe I fixed the annoying recent bug where the top-right hover window would sometimes not position itself correctly on a window size/move until the top hover was shown once
    fixed a bug where the 'do you want to do shutdown work?' dialog was not abandoning shutdown if cancelled (rather than yes/no)
    updated the 'has free space to do db transaction?' checker, which needs to test device partitions, to do two sweeps--first only fast local devices, then potentially mega laggy network discovery if the mount point is not found (hydev was wondering why it was suddenly taking nine seconds to close his test client!)
    fixed another issue with double-clicking some addremove/queue listboxes when no edit button is set--now in this case they all delete on a double-click
    fixed a little bad error handling on pending content upload. an error with petitioning certain IPFS uploads is not yet fixed

Changelog

    Siblings:

    the slowest of the new sibling regen & update code has received a full optimisation pass. some sections take 10% less time, some 90%, and one critical query takes 99% less time. overall, several big jobs work much faster, and ptr processing, which slowed significantly for many users, should be back up to a good speed. uploading pending tags (which tend to be for local files) should be much faster in particular. let's do another round of IRL observation and profiling this week, and I'll keep at it
    the various 'display' regeneration routines now provide more progress status text, drilling down to the x/y siblings being collapse-counted, or number of files added to a cache, and generally all tag sibling regen got a status update polish pass
    optimised the way tag sibling application is set--now, only the tag siblings that are changed need to have their counts regenerated. hence, if you just apply (or remove) your own five 'my tags' siblings onto the PTR, the client now only has to do two seconds of work, not ten minutes

    The rest:

    fixed the annoying issue with media viewer mouseovers stealing focus/activation from the manage tags dialog. this can now only happen if current focus is on a hover window. sorry for the delay!
    updated manage tag parents dialog to state the pairs being petitioned on the 'petition reason entry' dialog
    updated manage tag parents and siblings dialogs to have appropriate 'reason' suggestions for petitions (previously, they were inheriting the same suggestions as for add)
    ipfs network jobs now have a minimum 'reply' connection timeout of two hours (so giganto directory pushes won't throw an error). connection timeout remains the same, so if the server is hanging on that, it'll still notice
    fixed the 'test address' button on the IPFS manage services panel
    petitioning an IPFS file when there is no IPFS multihash entry in the db no longer causes an error. now, in this case, the file entry is removed with no change made.
    when pending to or petitioning from a file service, a quick filter is now applied to discard invalid files (i.e. (not) already in the service). any weird logical holes where this might occur should now be fixed
    export folders now catch and report missing file errors more nicely
    export folders now remember the last error they encountered and report that in the edit export folders dialog

    Boring tag siblings optimisations:

    optimised the tag manager generation routine to use any common file domains for fast cache lookup for any subset of the files available, rather than falling back to 'all known files' domain when there is no single common file domain
    optimised the new 'all known files' display autocomplete cache to use similar faster specific files cache lookups when available
    optimised how the 'all known files' display cache regenerates tag sibling chains. it now takes a shortcut when given non-sibling tags and tags where all but one sibling member have zero count, and it can count current and pending counts separately according to the most efficient counting method (e.g. most pre-display pending counts are 0 across the board, so even if current count is a million, the pending count can often be assumed without lookup overhead). furthermore, the 'clever' count has better query planning and less non-sqlite data overhead, and with experimental data is now chosen more carefully. what was previously a 22s job on a test database now takes 5s
    deduplicated how new mappings are filtered to all the specific cache domains, significantly reducing overhead
    massively optimised a critical - and the slowest - part of the new 'combined' cache that handles add/pend mappings pre-insert presence testing, speeding up the core query about 100x!
    reduced some overhead when doing file service_id normalisation in repository processing
    split up specific chain regen into groups to reduce memory usage
    optimised specific display tag cache 'add file' updates, and thereby basic cache regeneration, to be just a little faster for files that have multiple sibling tags
    all predicates made in the database are now populated with ideal and chain sibling information, and this is used for '(will display as xxx)' labels and autocomplete tag search filtering (e.g. you type in 'lotr', it matches an autocomplete result of 'lord of the rings'). there are still some ui-made predicates to figure out, so the old system remains as a fallback
    related tags lookup is a tiny bit faster and now populates its predicates with ideal and chain sibling info at the db level
    cleaned up some 'fetch related tags' code, might make it a bit faster for large tag counts
    cleaned up the way some mapping tables are fetched
    unified table/table_name nomenclature in the db code
    updated an old data->ui status presentation method (it typically does stuff like "regenning some stuff: 500/10,000"), to not hog so much UI time and not yield worker threads so often when new statuses are coming in real fast
    several late optimisations based on IRL testing

Changelog

    general work:

    fixed a bug in the new file service filtering code that was stopping file upload commands to file repositories or ipfs services from sticking
    fixed an issue with the export files dialog auto-close-when-done function
    I think I fixed a possible bug in the boot file location repair/recovery dialog sometimes not saving corrected paths on unusual file systems
    file migration cancel button and shut off timer should work a bit more reliably, more to come here
    copying subscription quality csv info to clipboard no longer does nice human numbers (you now get 1234, not csv-breaking 1,234)!
    may have fixed a very rare 'or predicate' error when opening a dialog with a 'read' autocomplete input, like export folder or file maintenance jobs dialogs
    all pages are better about dealing with missing (i.e. recently deleted) services on load, and autocompletes also
    error handling from servers with strange character encodings should be better about dealing with null characters
    cleaned up the combined display regen chain code
    deleted some obselete db code

    optimisation review:

    after more profiling, and thanks to additional input from users, I have done another round of optimisation for the new caches. using a new technique, more than just mappings are sped up this week - a number of queries that were prone to lag spikes should now have much more reliable speed and also be faster when
hammered often

    join and analyse db optimisations:

    these are mostly forcing table join orders, which reduces lag spikes, and reducing some related pre-query analysis overhead, which speeds things up more the faster your drive is (up to double processing speed on an ssd). they will affect different clients to different extents, but if your 'related tags' were taking more than a second to load, it should be sorted this week. systems affected:

    archiving files
    fetching 'related' suggested tags
    tag siblings regen/update in about ten places
    all mappings processing
    additional mappings processing for add/delete, pend/rescind_pend
    importing or deleting files that have tags
    loading medias' tags for the first time or on regen
    loading any media for the first time
    num notes searches
    similar files search tree maintenance
    many general file hash lookups
    many general tag lookups

    other optimisations:

    mappings processing
    sibling processing
    wildcard tag searches, with and without namespaces, particularly when mixed with other search terms
    'tag as number' searches, with and without namespaces, particularly when mixed with other search terms
    searching for tags when mixed with other search terms
    has notes/no notes
    searching files on 'all known files' with general file metadata system predicates (like size, filetype)
    url class, url domain, and url regex file searches, particularly when mixed with other search terms
    num tag file searches when mixed with other search terms
    has/not has tags file searches when mixed with other search terms
    sped up specific display chain regen significantly, with similar separate current/pending optimisations as last week's for combined
    converted specific display cache overall regen to use a copy followed by the new chain regen rather than additive file import
    sped up combined display chain regen a little bit
    the splash window now updates itself with less UI overhead, so spammy updates (like the new tag regen code) use a little less CPU and fewer UI context switches

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

Manage large media collections and re-organize them using tags instead of folders that you can share via custom servers with this application.

The Unlicense

Changelog

    misc:

    fixed the 'system:(like/dislike) rating = x' search predicate string, which was saying 'unknown' rather than 'like/dislike' in several cases
    fixed a 'current_count' error in the new file search optimisation code for tag searches where the tag did not exist for any files in the domain (i.e. autocomplete count=0). thank you to users for helpful reports here
    fixed the recent file search optimisation code to handle 'system:time imported' when it was mixed with tags or search predicates that would pre-populate the query file pool with file domain cross-referenced files. sorry for the trouble!

    the forced delay overhead for table analysis is reduced from 0.1s to 0.02s. whenever many mostly empty tables need to be analyzed (like on first boot shutdown, when it is usually 100+ tables), it now zips by
    siblings/tag improvements:

    typing a shorthand sibling like 'lotr' into an 'all known tags' 'read' autocomplete - like on a default search page - now reliably discovers and matches text entry to ideal sibling results like 'series:lord of the rings'. this was previously buggy and unreliable--it now allows the match using better db knowledge, even when the merged 'all known tags' services involved disagree on siblings
    when typing tags into a 'searching immediately' page that has media, the autocomplete count results that only refer to that media will now match shorthand sibling inputs to the ideal result. media-populated tag search now takes a little bump of extra CPU to fetch results (they are now passed through the db to get nice siblings info), so it is also cached for the duration of your typing (previously, the counts were re-computed on every new keystroke, so this should be significantly smoother to work with on large pages even if that first keystroke takes a moment to give results)
    when typing into a 'write' autocomplete, like in manage tags, the process that promotes the entry text and known siblings to that entry and a potential ideal sibling result to the top of the list is now more sane. it now also only uses results with nonzero count. we'll see how this last change works out IRL
    when typing into a 'read' or 'write' autocomplete, the pre-search tag insert no longer has sibling insertion/swapping. it was unreliable before, with weird sibling-swapping in the short moment before real results returned. if you have slow results and often quick-add tags into search pages or manage tags, let me know how this works for you
    the 'additional tags' tag input dialog off the tag import options edit panel now shows the 'will display as' label
    the 'favourite', 'file lookup', and 'recent' tag suggestion panels now show the 'will display as' label
    the 'related' suggestion panel, which works on a slightly different system, now shows the 'will display as' label
    the 'tag suggestions' options panel's 'favourite tags' edit lookup and list now displays 'will display as' labels and correctly finds service-specific siblings in its results (e.g. you type 'lotr', it also finds 'series:lord of the rings')
    all autocomplete tag filtering should be just that little bit faster as you type
    filtering cached autocomplete results based on subsequent search text is now faster
    autocomplete inputs should no longer return 'ghost' results that have no current/pending count when one of the 'include current/pending' buttons is deactivated
    the new database autocomplete predicate generation routine now checks for 'cancel search' signals, saving CPU time as you type
    the slow 'regen chains' maintenance tasks now process sibling chains in random order, smoothing out the 500/100,000 progress label, which previously took about 80% of time on the first 20% of ids due to IRL tag distribution

    the last UI-side siblings work is cleared:

    the UI-side tag siblings cache is no longer used. the sometimes multi-second 'loading tag siblings' step of boot no longer happens!
    media autocomplete fetches are now asynchronously populated with siblings data via the db
    the exact-match and sibling 'insert' predicates at the top of pre-load and post-load read and write autocompletes now rely exclusively on db data for sibling matching
    taglists now present 'will display as' labels asynchronously and are better about updating those labels when the list's underlying tag service changes
    the taglist right-click menu that shows siblings to copy now fetches that submenu's contents asynchronously from the database
    the test panel on a blacklisting tag filter now asynchronously fetches tag siblings to test against from the database
    the actual blacklist tag filter test now fetches tag siblings to test against from the database
    reworked my custom tag listbox to handle asynchronous text decoration, and unified sibling decoration for media taglists and string taglists
    updated my old async updater class to be more flexible for different job types, and cleaned the code that already used it
    wrote a simple class for one-shot async jobs
    wrote a simple db lookup for UI-side tag sibling chain members
    wrote a simple db lookup for UI-side tag ideal siblings
    bunch of misc sibling, db, and ui work and cleanup to make all this work

    client api:

    added Hydrus Web, https://github.com/floogulinc/hydrus-web, to the Client API page. It allows you to access your client from any web browser
    added Anime Boxes, https://www.animebox.es/, to the Client API page. This booru-browsing application can now browse hydrus!
    the /add_urls/add_url command's 'service_names_to_tags' parameter now correctly acts like 'additional' tags, and is no longer filtered by any tag import options that may apply. that old name still works, but the more specific synonym 'service_names_to_additional_tags' is now supported and recommended (issue #456)
    the /add_urls/add_url command now takes a 'filterable_tags' parameter, which will be merged with any parsed tags and will be filtered in the same per-service way according to the current tag import options.
    the client api help is updated to talk about this, and the client api version is now 14
    updated client api help to talk about http/https

    the rest:

    the 407->408 update step now opens a yes/no dialog before it happens to talk about the big amount of CPU and HDD work coming up. it offers the previous 'full' version that takes all the work, and a 'lite' version that applies no siblings and is much cheaper. if you have been waiting on a PTR-syncing HDD client, this should let you update in significantly less time. there is still some copy work in lite mode, but it should not be such a killer
    the 'manage where tag siblings apply' dialog now has big red warning text talking about the current large CPU/HDD involved in very big changes
    a bunch of file-location loading and searching across the program has the opportunity to run very slightly faster, particularly on large systems. update will take a few seconds to make these new indices
    namespace and subtag tag searches and other cross-references now have the opportunity to run faster. update will take another couple of minutes to drop and remake new indices
    gave tag and wildcard search a complete pass, fixing and bettering my recent optimisations, and compressing the core tag search optimisation code to one location. thank you for the feedback everyone, and sorry for the recent trouble as we have migrated to the new sibling and optimisation systems
    gave untagged/has_tags/has_count searches a similar pass, mostly fixing up namespace filtering
    gave the new siblings code a similar pass, ensuring a couple of fetches always run the fast way
    gave url search and fetch code a similar pass, accounting better for domain cross-referencing and file cross-referencing
    fixed a typo bug when approving/denying repository file and mapping petitions
    fixed a bug when right-clicking a selection of multiple tags that shares a single subtag (e.g. 'samus aran' and 'character:samus aran')
    thanks to some nice examples of unusual videos that were reported as 1,000fps, I improved my fallback ffmpeg metadata parsing to deal with weird situations more cleverly. some ~1,000fps files now reparse correctly to sensible values, but some either really produce 1000 updates a second due to malformation or bad creation, or are just handled that way due to a bug in ffmpeg that we will have to wait for a fix for
    the hydrus jpeg mime type is now the correct image/jpeg, not image/jpg, thanks to users for noticing this (issue #646)
    searching for similar files now requires up to 10,000x less sqlite query initiation overhead for large queries. the replacement system has overhead of its own, but it should be faster overall
    improved error handling when a database cannot connect due to file system issues
    the edit subscription(s) panels should be better about disabling the ui while heavy jobs, like large subscription resets, are running
    the edit subscription(s) panels now do not allow an 'apply' if a big job is currently disabling the ui
    cancelling a manage subscriptions call when missing query logs were detected no longer causes a little error
    if a long-running asynchronous subscription job lasts beyond its parent's life, it now handles errors better

    boring details:

    improved a pre-optimisation decision tool for tag search that consults the autocomplete cache for expected end counts in order to make a better decision. it now handles subtag searches and multiple namespace/subtag searches such as for wildcards
    wrote fast tag lookup tools for subtag and multiple namespace/subtag
    fixed some bad simple tag search optimisation code, which was doing things in the wrong order!
    optimised simple tag search optimisations when doing subtag searches
    polished simple tag search code a bit more
    added brief comments to all the new cross joins to reinforce their intention
    greatly simplified the multiple namespace/subtag search used by wildcards
    fixed and extended tag unit tests for blacklist, filterable, additional, service application, overwrite deleted filterable, and overwrite deleted additional
    added a unit test for tag whitelist
    extended the whole 'external tags' pipeline to discriminate between filterable and additional external tags, and cleaned up several parts of the related code
    moved the edit subscription panel asynchronous info fetch code to my new async job object
    cleaned up one last ugly 'fetch query log containers' async call in edit subscriptions panel
    moved the edit subscription(s) panels asynchronous log container code to my new async job object
    misc code cleanup

Titel: Hydrus Network 413
Beitrag von: SiLæncer am 24 September, 2020, 04:55
Changelog

    added 'sort by number of files in collection' file sort type. it obviously only does anything interesting if you are collecting by something
    when you enter a tag from a manage tags suggested tags column with a double-click, the tag input box is now immediately focused. entering it with a keyboard action does not move the focus
    wrote a new routine for the 'check and repair' database menu that scans for and fixes invalid tags. this might be some system:tag that snuck in, superfluous unicode whitespace, or some weird website encoding that results in null characters, or any other old tag that has since become invalid. tag translations are written to the log
    added an experimental 'post_index' CONTEXT VARIABLE to subsidiary page parsers--whenever a non-vetoed post has pursuable URLs, this value is incremented by one. this is an attempt to generate a # 0,1,2,3 series. feedback on this would be appreciated, so I can formalise and document it
    added 'no_proxy' option for the options->connection page. it uses comma-separated host/domains, just like for curl or the NO_PROXY environment variable. it defaults to 127.0.0.1. in future, options will be added to auto-inherit proxy info from environment variables
    fixed an error when subscriptions try to publish to a page name when a 'page of pages' already has that name
    activated some old 'clean url' parsing tech I wrote but never plugged in that helps parsing urls from source fields on sites that start with non-url gubbins
    fixed the v411->v412 update step to account for a tags table that has duplicate entries (this shouldn't ever happen, but it seems some legacy bug or storage conversion indicent may have caused this for some users). if a unique constraint error is raised, the update step now gives a little message box and does dedupe work
    fixed an issue where the 'will display as' tag was rendering without namespace when 'hide namespace in normal views' was on
    fixed a recent character encoding routine that was supposed to filter out null characters
    fixed some UPnP error reporting
    may have fixed an odd and seemingly rare 'paintevent' issue when expanding the popup toaster from collapsed state--it may also have been a qt bug, and fixed in the new qt:
    updated qt to 5.15.1 for windows and linux builds. it fixes a couple of odd issues like 'unclicking' to select a menu item (issue #296)
    added session save to holistic ui test suite
    misc code cleanup

    client api:

    wrote a client test for the help menu so I can test some basic functions holistically, hoping to stop some recent typo bugs from happening again
    did a couple of hotfixes for v412 to deal with some client api url pending bugs. the links in the 412 release now point to new fixed builds
    fixed an issue setting additional tags via the client api when the respective service's tag import options are not set to get anything
    fixed a 500 error with /add_tags/add_tags when a tags parameter is an empty list
    fixed the /manage_pages/get_page_info client api help to show the 'page_info' key in the example response

    the hydrus network version is increased this week from 18 to 19. clients and servers can only talk to each other when they are on the same version, so please update your clients if you wish to keep talking to the PTR, and your own servers if you have a home network setup or similar. if a server and client are on different versions, you will get a polite error when they next try to talk, and sync will be paused
    added 'run all export folders now' shortcut command to 'main window' shortcut set
    added shortcuts to the 'main gui' shortcut set for navigating the currently selected page. you can move left, right, to the leftmost on the current row, or to the rightmost. the left and right will cycle up a page of pages layer when at left/rightmost boundaries, letting you iterate through all pages in a depth-first manner
    updated the default newgrounds parser to deal with artists with more than 60/70 items in one art gallery (essentially, some clever 'next page' fetching now occurs to get older info that in your browser is drawn in as you scroll down). if you have some subscriptions for artists where you know this is true, try doing a full reset on them
    added realbooru to the hydrus defaults. they also apparently just switched away from a gelbooru 0.2.x site, so if you have a gelbooru parser with a realbooru example URL, I remove that example URL
    updated the page initial media load routine to my new async job
    updated the imported file presentation page-publish routine to my new async job
    when drag and drop or import file presentation now wants to add files to a page that is not yet fully loaded (rare, but possible for large sessions), that page now remembers the files it should add and appends them once load is done. these files-to-be-added are also preserved through a session save, if the client is closed before this long-loading page is initialised
    updated windows mpv, the reported api version is now 1.09
    updated windows ffmpeg to 4.3.1
    updated windows release to sqlite 3.33.0
    updated windows opencv to 4.4.0
    just a little thing--I took the source links out of the release post. anyone running from source is probably pulling straight from the github repo anyway
    cleaned up some misc inelegant string code
    misc other cleanup

    upnp:

    fixed the awful typos in the upnp add-mapping error handling I changed last week. I am sorry for this!
    improved the async mappings and external ip fetch routines in upnp dialog. closing the dialog while a job is going on should now be completely ok
    upnp dialog add, edit, and delete actions are now async (they won't hang the UI while they work)!
    all the upnp async jobs should now disable the main list controls while they work
    fixed the 'edit' action on upnp dialog to correctly remove old and existing mappings depending on what was edited
    when adding a mapping for an (external_port,protocol) that is already mapped, the upnp dialog now asks if you want to overwrite, rather than just failing with a notification
    after an async action in upnp dialog, and a mappings refresh triggered, the cached external IP should now be properly restored to the status area
    pulled parsing code out of upnp code and wrote some proper unit tests for this so stupid typo errors should not happen again

    parsing:

    subsidiary page parser separation formulae that throw an exception will now be ignored, as if they parsed nothing. in the weird case that you might receive json or html, you can now create subsidiary parsers for both types, and the one that fails will do so gracefully and silently
    URL Classes now have a key->value 'header override' value. any time one of these URLs is hit, these headers are added!!! be careful with this, but it may solve some tough problems. also, sorry, the URL Class UI is becoming a hellstack, I need to break it into tabs or similar

    client api:

    added documentation for the new add_files commands, delete_files, undelete_files, archive_files, and unarchive_files
    added unit tests for the new commands

    Fixed the borked list height for the file viewing statistics system pred panel checkbox lists
    Fixed an issue where namespace:anything predicates would not propagate to new pages on 'open page with these tags' commands.

Changelog

    Tag lists and editing predicates:

    You can now set the default value for any editable system predicate. a star button beside each panel lets you set or clear the custom default
    All editable system predicate panels now put 'recent' predicate buttons up top, for the five most entered predicates of the respective types. this is a little jank and grows pretty tall with multi-pred-type panels, but let me know what you think
    All tag lists now support drag-selection!
    Taglists now have 'open a new OR page' menu entry when more than one tag is selected
    When taglists can change the current search, they now have an 'add an OR to current search' menu entry when more than one tag is selected
    OR Predicates are now editable! they launch their own little autocomplete input that is a little jank because you can technically make nested ORs, but it works!
    System:rating is now editable! it launches the whole stack every time. the stack alignment is messed up though :/
    Invertible predicates (inbox/archive, tag/-tag, etc...) now flip on double-click only if you have one selected. if you have more than one selected, they appear as invertible buttons along with the rest of the edit UI
    The active search predicates taglist now has an 'edit search terms' menu entry, if you find shift+double-click a pain
    When you shift+double-click on more than one tag to add them to the current search, this is now added as an OR
    Similarly if you shift+middle-click on more than one tag, the new page is now an OR
    When editing predicates, edited predicates now stay selected
    Shift+clicking on an already selected tag no longer adds any new selections (i.e. shift+click filling-in). this should make it nicer to do shift+double-click on selections. furthermore, the 'last clicked' focus ghost (from which a shift+click selection cascade starts) on tag lists is now cleared on edits or removes, which should reduce some other crazy/annoying select behaviour here
    The list of active search predicates now correctly initialises sorted
    Entering hex hashes into system:hash or :similar_to now has unified hash parsing, auto-removes 'md5:'-style prefixes, and presents detailed error information when a hash is too long or short.

    Faster and snappier file and tag searching:

    Searching for files by complicated wildcard (i.e. a search phrase that includes an asterisk in a non-rightmost character position) is now greatly optimised when the tag does not start with an asterisk (e.g. 'sm*l' is now much faster, '*all' is still hellmode), and now cancels (due to hitting the stop button or changing the query before results come in) much faster thanks to a new unified results fetching and cancel-checking routine
    Rewrote my autocomplete tag search to use the new namespace and subtag lookup code from the virtual siblings and parents system, unifying lookup logic and benefitting from the same new complicated wildcard optimisation and fast-cancel tech
    Autocomplete tag count aggregation (a later step, after the initial lookup) benefits from a little faster cancel tech
    All file queries based on tag, wildcard, namespace, tag count, and tag existence now use the new fast-cancel tech. if you put in a 'has >4 tags' query and it is taking ages, changing the query or just hitting the 'stop' button should now free up the db pretty fast
    Related tags suggestions also gets the cancel tech and is now more timing precise for tags with either huge or tiny count.

    Client api:

    The /get_files/file_metadata call now returns a service_names_to_statuses_to_displayed_tags structure, which reflects the sibling-collapsed and parent-added tags, as displayed to the user in UI. the help is updated to reflect this
    The client api version is now 15.

    The rest:

    Fixed an issue where regenerating the tag definition search cache would not tidy up the 'I am busy' modal dialog once it was done, resulting in a soft lock
    Fixed another upnp error handling bug, this time in the upnp daemon
    Updated Qt to 5.15.2 on Windows and Linux builds. this should fix the unusual button clicking area problem for some custom styles.

    Boring specific code changes:

    Wrote widgets to edit invertible preds and OR preds
    Pulled the messy rating code out of the rating system predicate ui code to their own widgets
    Wrote some special predicate ui definitions and initialisation handling for OR preds and grouped 'multiple' preds (for ratings)
    Refactored search and predicate ui code to a new 'search' module
    Refactored collect and sort widgets away from search code
    Misc layout improvements for system pred edit ui

Changelog

    Fixed the bad position indexing when drag-selecting taglists that were scrolled down. this also caused some weird selection when scrolled and clicks included a little mouse movement. sorry for the trouble!
    Ctrl+drag-select now deselects!
    Fetching tag autocomplete results when you have thumbnails and 'searching immediately' on, which has been way too slow recently, now cancels much faster. in some large page situations, it was adding multi-second lag on the first character-press. it also runs faster overall
    Hydrus should now deal better with invalid tags that contain the null character (there it one we know about on the PTR, from a decode of botched Shift JIS, which could crash the client from too many errors during critical paint periods). when a tag like this turns up in a taglist, thumbnail, or canvas background, it now renders as an appropriate 'invalid tag' string, and a one-time 'woah, bad tag, run fix tags now' popup appears
    Regular tag cleaning now looks for and removes null characters, so all new sources of these bad tags should now be eliminated
    Database->check and repair->fix invalid tags now fixes tags with the null character. it also fixes tags so broken that after cleaning they have no subtag left. it also now forces a full media tag reload when it is done for all media
    The 'regen storage mappings', 'regen display mappings', and repopulate from cache' database routines now have an additional step where you can order them only to work on one tag service, so regenning or repopulating local tags, which usually takes a couple seconds, doesn't need to wait two hours for the PTR to go as well
    Added some menu help to the 'profile modes' debug menu, and gave 'reducing program lag' help page a pass
    Fixed virtual display regeneration on service delete

    Parents and siblings:

    Fixed situations where some grandparent and sibling relationships would not appear in the virtual system. it was a bug when certain links of a multi-part display 'chain' were updated at different times. when repopulating chain data, the sibling and parent update routines now correctly chase their complete chains both when wiping ideal data and repopulating from raw data, hitting all levels of the chain, ensuring to go back up and down chains when there are multiple grandsiblings/children/parents, and chasing parents where one or both members have better siblings. thank you to the several users who reported and helped figure out this problem, which was not simple to reproduce (issue #725)
    Your ideal display data will be regenerated on update, which should not take more than a couple of seconds. it will likely correct some siblings and add some grandparents to be filled in by the siblings/parents sync. my PTR test environment went up from about 189,000 display rows to 192,000
    While sibling and parent lookup is more thorough (and hence more expensive), I also optimised many parts of lookup week. I believe tag display sync and tag processing will be much faster for tags with simple sibling and parent relationships, and slightly slower for tags with complex relationships and many instances to files on your drive. as always, let me know what sort of processing speeds and lag you get, and if you know how to make a db profile, please send them in when it gets bad
    When a 'write' autocomplete results list includes parent expansion rows (as in manage tags), parents now show duplicated and properly for all the tags that have them, including siblings and other children/grandchildren (previously, a parent label could only exist once in a list, which meant parents were ending up hanging off the last valid tag for which they applied)
    'write' autocompletes now show results that exactly match the text entry, and all their siblings, when they do not have count but do have sibling or parent data. so, if you type in 'samus aran', and it has a sibling to 'character:samus aran', but 'samus aran' doesn't actually have count, you now get it and all siblings anyway. this may need tuning, but it solves a persistent and annoying lookup and quick-sibling-access problem in manage tags
    Copying tags and their indented parents now removes the parent indent whitespace
    Tag sync display now takes way longer breaks (now 30 seconds, was 2.5) between 'normal' background work periods. this thing was hammering people far harder than needed and could clog up db write/commit time and nobble UI responsitivity when big bumps collided
    The tag display maintenance manager now also tries to detect when many siblings or parents are streaming in (from a migration or a repository process with a heap of data), and pauses work while that continues
    Greatly sped up mass imports of sibling and parent data, either from tag migration or big dialog pastes. what was 40 rows/s should now be about 1,000 rows/s
    Fixed the database menu's 'regenerate tag parents lookup cache', which wasn't hooked up

    Boring changes:

    Gave tag parents and siblings update, regen, and chain fetch a full pass, correcting bad queries to fix the above, fixing raw pair chain level navigation and parent-sibling idealisation, and optimised these lookups as well
    Fixed some tag_id vs ideal_tag_id nomenclature (and related bugs) in tag parents cache
    Optimised 'all known tags' autocomplete count fetching a little. tag autocomplete and search should be a bit faster in this domain
    Reduced display sync pre-processing overhead by about 30% with a better random pair sampling routine
    Reduced the overhead of my now very commonly used single integer memory table select optimisation. this now recycles tables after use, which reduces overhead about 50% in small number scenarios. all features of the database will enjoy this speed improvement, particularly small repetitive tag lookup jobs (such as the new display sync and repository tag processing)
    Reduced overhead on some sibling chain lookup code
    Reduced overhead on the sibling lookup used by manage tag dialog taglist
    Reduced overhead on some parent chain lookup code
    Tiny optimisation on single sibling chain lookup
    Sped up the ancient OG single tag->tag-id fetching routine, seems to work about twice as fast now
    More misc optimisations, mostly list/set/dict comprehension rewriting to reduce overhead, across virtual sibling and parent code
    Added a full combined siblings and parents unit tests for the main missing parent chain link problem solved this week
    Added a full combined siblings and parents unit test for large real world data added in multiple pieces
    'a file identifier was missing!' critical errors now print a stack trace to the log for further debugging info
    Updated the 'help my db is broke.txt' document with a couple new comments

Changelog

    Misc:

    Thanks to a user's contribution, added the export 'filename pattern' to the discord drag and drop mode, under options->gui. this lets you auto-rename files in this export mode. I like how this works, but the overall pattern-based filename creation system really needs updating. let me know how this works for you, and I'll finally start the job to update filename generation
    Fixed a bug when importing files with the 'only add tags that already exist' filter active, and added a unit test so this should not fail due to a typo again
    Fixed an issue where ctrl-selecting on taglists was weird, where any mouse movement during ctrl+click would deselect. drag select and deselect can now only start when the drag crosses two indices
    Prototyped a basic profile mode for the client api. it is insufficient (due to the asynchronous nature of twisted), but a start
    When the client catches an invalid tag with the new error handling code, when it shows you that bad tag in a popup, it now clips that to 24 characters (some PTR invalid tags are just a few hundred null characters in a row, wew lad)
    The client now recovers from a repository giving it a new invalid tag definition. all such tags are, for now, called 'invalid repository tag'. a plan to auto-hide these tags clientside and fully eliminate them serverside will come later
    The clipboard url watcher settings should stick a bit more firmly. those users who had trouble, please let me know how you get on
    Fixed an issue editing duplicate action options when they contained tag or rating preferences for services that no longer exist
    I think I fixed some issues getting autocomplete results when you type the whole namespace before moving on to the subtag. when you hit 'namespace:', it should invalidate the old cache and start a new search
    When the database is given content updates for services that no longer exist, those content updates filtered out of UI update broadcast
    Fixed an issue where URL status check could fail when the url map contained orphan hash_ids. proper orphan clearance will come later
    Reduced overhead of tag filtering, which should improve display speed of taglist for very large pages
    Parents should now work through repository processing faster. periods of 2 rows/s at the end up of updates should be up to 100 times faster.

    Duplicates search improvements:

    Potential duplicate search now works in the background! it will not interrupt you and is easily cancellable. duplicate search pages disable their search buttons while it is going
    The search distance in duplicates pages is now synchronised across all pages--when one updates, they all do
    All the updates to potential search maintenance numbers are now routed through one cached manager. updates here are repeated less often
    Misc cleanup for duplicates page.

    Database modes:

    A new 'program launch arguments' help page now talks about all the available command line switches, here: https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/help/launch_arguments.html
    Added the '--db_journal_mode' launch switch to set the SQLite journal mode. default is WAL, permitted values are also TRUNCATE, PERSIST, and MEMORY
    Ensured --db_synchronous_override was hooked up correctly
    The old disk cache options under speed and memory are removed, along with various deprecated disk cache load calls and code
    Fixed some shutdown maintenance check logic that was saying 'I think a vacuum is due' when it wasn't actually true
    Db_journal_mode, synchronous value, and no_db_temp_files is now shown in help->about.

    Technical database nonsense:

    PERSIST is new to hydrus, and may in future versions of SQLite be boost performance for HDD drives with larger databases (e.g. those that sync to the PTR), although unfortunately in our case (which uses multiple ATTACH databases), it seems current SQLite must ultimately treat this as DELETE, as here https://sqlite.org/atomiccommit.html#_clean_up_the_rollback_journals. damn
    Hydrus now tries to always trim WAL (and PERSIST, if it worked) journal files down to 1GB after commits (which happen every 30 seconds), so giganto WALs should clear up promptly after big work is done
    Hydrus no longer refreshes the database connection every thirty minutes, meaning WAL journal files will persist (and hopefully regularly clip back to 1GB when exceeded), which should improve some elements of long-running write performance, but may result in some surprise memory issues, we'll see
    In lieu of the db connection not refreshing, the memory database now reattaches every ten minutes, which should stop it leaking in certain situations
    When in WAL journal mode, the hydrus db now cleans up any lingering checkpointing work every half hour
    After testing and feedback from users, the database is now default SQLite synchronous 1 (down from 2) when in WAL. the db is still consistent, so sudden program stop (crash, power cut) should not result in software-caused corruption, but the database may lose more than just the last 30 seconds of work. this speeds up tag processing in an SSD test environment by approx 33%
    The 'no_wal' (TRUNCATE) and 'db_memory_journaling' (MEMORY) launch switches remain valid but are now deprecated
    Improved launch switch code generally
    Boosted cache size for each of the four db files to ~200MB-this will likely become a launch argument in future, along with some other specific db values
    The client and server no longer disconnect from the db to check whether it is possible to vacuum databases

Beitrag von: SiLæncer am 07 Januar, 2021, 08:50
Changelog

    New tag caches:

    as 2020 ended, I attempted but failed to tune fast search for all kinds of clients, big and small and simple and complex. unable to guarantee decent speeds with just code, I have redesigned the tag text search cache. rather than checking the gigantic master table for all namespace and subtag lookups, the client can now zoom in on a small fast cache limited to the current search context, so doing a clever lookup on 'my tags' will no longer be hampered by having PTR beside it, and doing a solid lookup on the PTR or 'all known tags' will no longer be accidentally hampered by an optimisation for another situation
    the 424 update will take some time to generate the new caches for your existing data. if you don't sync with the PTR, it should be a few seconds. if you do sync, it will be about ten minutes on an SSD (seems about 30,000 definitions a second), and somewhat longer on an HDD. it will count up the tags as it goes, and on the PTR there will be a bit of deletion work, then one or two counts up to perhaps a million, and then one big count up to about 16 million.
    in my initial tests, this cache adds about 1-2% additional processing time to mass tag changes, but a wide variety of tag lookups and file searches are now significantly faster, have much nicer worst-case lag spikes, and should cancel quicker. these are best in any specific tag domain, although 'all known tags' should still be much better. a future expansion of the tag cache is planned to finally address clean and accurate 'all known tags' searches

    summary; all these should be faster and cancel faster:

    autocomplete searches for 'subtag*' (most normal searches) are optimised
    autocomplete searches for 'namespace:*' are optimised, including when the namespace itself is a wildcard
    autocomplete searches for wildcards with an asterisk in the middle of the subtag are optimised
    autocomplete searches for wildcards with an asterisk at the beginning of the subtag are optimised (but this is still generally the slowest query)
    autocomplete searches for namespace and subtag wildcard combinations are optimised, with either or both as a wildcard of any type
    autocomplete searches for '*' are optimised
    tag file searches without a namespace (i.e. in file search, with any namespace) are optimised
    namespace file searches are optimised, including when the namespace is a wildcard
    wildcard file searches are optimised, for all the classes of wildcard above
    'tag as number' file searches are optimised
    'has ><= x namespace tags' file searches are optimised for speed, including when the namespace is a wildcard, but still have bad cancelability on large domains. I'll work on this more

    Other tag cache info:

    the 'tag text search cache' regeneration routine under the database->regenerate menu is replaced with a service specific routine for the new cache
    on boot, if the client sees any of the new cache tables are missing, it notifies you and regenerates the affected subsection of the cache
    an old method of performing complex wildcard searches was using surplus data and has been eliminated. these searches are now also computationally cheaper beyond the other domain-based optimisations this week
    I have identified the next bottleneck in the tag search pipeline and have a plan to speed all the above up even further, which can all be done in code
    thanks to user feedback, I have also identified other wasteful overhead in tag processing. I'll keep working!
    while the planned 'all known tags' cache will be useful since most file searches are in this domain, it will be a bit of work, so I will first let this new lookup cache breathe for a bit. 'all known tags' will not be nearly as big as the 'all known files/combined file' caches that have hit us with so much CPU recently. I expect it to increase the client.caches.db size by about 5%
    unified all increments or decrements to autocomplete count caches, no matter the service domain, to one location
    unified how autocomplete counts are fetched across different service domains
    optimised specific and combined autocomplete count cache update overhead for new, existing, and deleted tags
    optimised display autocomplete count cache updates for tags with multiple siblings or parents
    optimised the 'local tags cache', which does fast tag text fetching for local files, when new tags or files are added/removed from the 'all local files' domain. this now occurs in the same unified autocomplete count update process. it now also caches pending tags that have no current count
    merged 'exact match' autocomplete tag searching code into generalised wildcard search
    misc autocomplete and other tag code cleanup and harmonisation
    ditched some old mass UNION queries that were not cancelling well

    The rest:

    when you paste queries into a sub, the summary 'these were/were not added' dialog now always appears, and if you paste empty whitespace, it now says so
    the manage siblings/parents dialogs now specify which services apply which siblings, whether they are fully synced, the current display tag sync maintenance settings, and ultimately whether you can expect changes to apply quickly after dialog ok
    when a text entry dialog comes with suggestion buttons, it now focuses the text box by default. sorry for the trouble here! (issue #765)
    updated a couple petition reason suggestions in manage tags and parents
    added a shortcut to 'main window' to refresh manage tags' related tags suggestions with 'thorough' duration. in future, these dialog-specific actions will be moved out of 'main window', these have just been a 'temporary' patch
    updated the 'running from source' and 'install' help with some new numbers and info about mpv, and updated the 'server' help with a document helpfully provided by a user explaining that the server does not do what many new users think
    sped up 'has tags' file searches in certain situations, mostly when there are few if any other search predicates
    the default e621 parser now pulls meta tags, thank you to a user for providing this
    the default nitter timeline url classes are updated, thank you to a user for providing this
    the new little hook that takes 'file:///' off of paths pasted into the filename tagging path text now also normalises the path, so if you are on Windows, the URI's slashes will be Windows-corrected to backlashes. it also now removes wrapping quotes
    the hydrus logger again correctly restores stdout and stderr after it is closed on program exit (this was disabled for some reason, but fingers crossed it seems fine now!)
    an issue where automatically started duplicate potentials file search could not cancel when shutdown 'stop work' button was clicked or where idle maintenance mode turned off should be fixed
    the shutdown maintenance work for the first client shutdown now has a little text saying it is just some quick initialisation work
    for hopefully the last and completely final time, I think I fixed the invalid tag repair function for certain sorts of tags applied to currently local files
    improved the way a job thread was pulling new jobs (issue #750)

The Unlicense

Changelog

    optimisations:

    I fixed the new tag cache's slow tag autocomplete when in 'all known files' domain (which is usually in the manage tags dialog). what was taking about 2.5 seconds in 424 should now take about 58ms!!! for technical details, I was foolishly performing the pre-search exact match lookup (where exactly what you type appears before the full results fetch) on the new quick-text search tables, but it turns out this is unoptimised and was wasting a ton of CPU once the table got big. sorry for the trouble here--this was driving me nuts IRL. I have now fleshed out my dev machine's test client with many more millions of tag mappings so I can test these scales better in future before they go live
    internal autocomplete count fetches for single tags now have less overhead, which should add up for various rapid small checks across the program, mostly for tag processing, where the client frequently consults current counts on single tags for pre-processing analysis
    autocomplete count fetch requests for zero tags (lol) are also dealt with more efficiently
    thanks to the new tag definition cache, the 'num tags' service info cache is now updated and regenerated more efficiently. this speeds up all tag processing a couple percent
    tag update now quickly filters out redundant data before the main processing job. it is now significantly faster to process tag mappings that already exist--e.g. when a downloaded file pends tags that already exist, or repo processing gives you tags you already have, or you are filling in content gaps in reprocessing
    tag processing is now more efficient when checking against membership in the display cache, which greatly speeds up processing on services with many siblings and parents. thank you to the users who have contributed profiles and other feedback regarding slower processing speeds since the display cache was added
    various tag filtering and display membership tests are now shunted to the top of the mappings update routine, reducing much other overhead, especially when the mappings being added are redundant

    tag logic fixes:

    I explored the 'ghost tag' issue, where sometimes committing a pending tag still leaves a pending record. this has been happening in the new display system when two pending tags that imply the same tag through siblings or parents are committed at the same time. I fixed a previous instance of this, but more remained. I replicated the problem through a unit test, rewrote several update loops to remain in sync when needed, and have fixed potential ghost tag instances in the specific and 'all known files' domains, for 'add', 'pend', 'delete', and 'rescind pend' actions
    also tested and fixed are possible instances where both a tag and its implication tag are pend-committed at the same time, not just two that imply a shared other
    furthermore, in a complex counting issue, storage autocomplete count updates are no longer deferred when updating mappings--they are 'interleaved' into mappings updates so counts are always synchronised to tables. this unfortunately adds some processing overhead back in, but as a number of newer cache calculations rely on autocomplete numbers, this change improves counting and pre-processing logic
    fixed a 'commit pending to current' counting bug in the new autocomplete update routine for 'all known files' domain
    while display tag logic is working increasingly ok and fast, most clients will have some miscounts and ghost tags here and there. I have yet to write efficient correction maintenance routines for particular files or tags, but this is planned and will come. at the moment, you just have the nuclear 'regen' maintenance calls, which are no good for little problems

    network object breakup:

    the network session and bandwidth managers, which store your cookies and bandwidth history for all the different network contexts, are no longer monolithic objects. on updates to individual network contexts (which happens all the time during network activity), only the particular updated session or bandwidth tracker now needs to be saved to the database. this reduces CPU and UI lag on heavy clients. basically the same thing as the subscriptions breakup last year, but all behind the scenes
    your existing managers will be converted on update. all existing login and bandwidth log data should be preserved
    sessions will now keep delayed cookie changes that occured in the final network request before client exit
    we won't go too crazy yet, but session and bandwidth data is now synced to the database every 5 minutes, instead of 10, so if the client crashes, you only lose 5 mins of login/bandwidth data
    some session clearing logic is improved
    the bandwidth manager no longer considers future bandwidth in tests. if your computer clock goes haywire and your client records bandwidth in the future, it shouldn't bosh you so much now

    the rest:

    the 'system:number of tags' query now has greatly improved cancelability, even on gigantic result domains
    fixed a bad example in the client api help that mislabeled 'request_new_permissions' as 'request_access_permissions' (issue #780)
    the 'check and repair db' boot routine now runs after version checks, so if you accidentally install a version behind, you now get the 'weird version m8' warning before the db goes bananas about missing tables or similar
    added some methods and optimised some access in Hydrus Tag Archives
    if you delete all the rules from a default bandwidth ruleset, it no longer disappears momentarily in the edit UI
    updated the python mpv bindings to 0.5.2 on windows, although the underlying dll is the same. this seems to fix at least one set of dll load problems. also updated is macOS, but not Linux (yet), because it broke there, hooray
    updated cloudscraper to 1.2.52 for all platforms

Changelog

    misc:

    thanks to help from Codexx at 8chan.moe, the old 8kun board is completely migrated and archived at 8chan.moe /hydrus/. going forward I will be maintaining a Hydrus Network General there on /t/ for merged release posts, Q&A, and Bug Reports. the plan is that whenever it fills up, it will be moved to the /hydrus/ archive. the links across the program and help are updated, please let me know if I missed any. Endchan /hydrus/ remains as a bunker
    fixed a bug where subtag entries in the new tag fast search cache were being deleted for all namespaces when a single namespaced version was went to count 0. it meant some autocomplete results were not appearing, often after some sibling changes. a new 'repopulate' job has been added to the database regenerate menu to fix this efficiently if something like it happens again. this routine will be run on update to fix all users, it shouldn't take long (issue #785)
    fixed a bug where the new network objects would throw an error on save when a 'dirty' object was quickly deleted. I think this was typically sessions that only have ephemeral session cookies being created in the final five minutes of the program and then being cleared during program exit
    when an archive/delete filter finishes, it now fires off all its changes in one go. previously they would go in ~64-file chunks over the next few hundred milliseconds. this will add a small amount of 'refresh lag', delaying page refreshes etc..., on bigger filter jobs for some clients, but it will guarantee that if you hit F5 real quick after finishing filtering on a processing page with non-random sort, you won't see the same files again at the top, only for them to be swiftly archived/deleted as you watch. trash file performance is much better these days, let me know how this goes for you if you do megafilters
    the tag import options whitelist now checks subtags of parsed tags. if you add 'samus aran' to the whitelist, but the site delivers 'character:samus aran', this now passes the whitelist
    thanks to a user's submission, the gelbooru 0.2.5 post parser is updated and should get tags again, for those users who stopped getting them last week--however, I never experienced this myself, so please let me know if you still have trouble. there could be something more complicated going on here
    updated the gelbooru 0.2.x gallery parser to handle an alternate form of gelbooru pools--we did not figure out why different users are being given different markup, it wasn't as simple as being logged in or not, but there is a difference for some. this parser is folded in on update, so the gelb pool downloader should be fixed for users who had trouble with it
    also updated the gelbooru pool gallery url class to infer next page url, as in the alternate form the next page is difficult to parse
    the 'clear all closed pages' command under the 'undo' menu now asks for yes/no confirmation
    added a 'callto' profile mode, which will be very useful in diagnosing GPU lag in future. the 'callto' jobs are little off-main-thread things like image rendering and async panel preparation. should help us figure out where big download pages etc... are eating up CPU
    the different profile modes in the debug menu now all show popup messages, but only when their job exceeds the particular profile's interesting time, usually 3-20ms. this should reduce spam
    the 'this session' bandwidth tracker on the status bar is now a special tracker that only includes data from boot. previously, it was using the 'global' tracker, which after certain time intervals (four minutes, three hours, three days), will compress bandwidth history into larger time windows to save space. if one of these windows covered time before the client started, it could spookily report a little bandwidth used on a client started with network traffic paused
    bandwidth data usage in times shorter than the last ten seconds (which are smoothed out to avoid bumps) now also get the 'don't get bandwidth from the future on motherboards that had a briefly crazy system clock' fix from last week
    fixed some disengaged database tuning that was leading to worse cancel times on certain jobs
    updated a whole bunch of the help so section headings are links with nice #fragment/anchor ids, making it easy to link other users to a particular section. I will continue this work, and future help will follow this new format
    fixed some bad character encodings in the changelog document, siblings help, and tagging schema help. these should now be utf-8 valid

    object load improvements:

    the client now detects serialisable (saveable) objects that were generated in a future version format your client does not yet support. this mostly affects downloader objects like parsers, where you might import an object a user in a much newer version of the client made. for instance, this week some users imported a fixed gelbooru parser in an older client, which was then saved and double-updated later on, and that caused other problems down the line. downloader imports deal with this situation cleanly, but otherwise it mostly makes a popup notifying you of the problem and asking to contact me. there are about 170 places in the program where objects are deserialised and I am not ready to make this a fullblown error until I know more about people's IRL situations. let's hope this is not widespread. if you run into this, please let me know!
    if you were running an older client and manually imported the updated gelbooru parser that was going around, and then you got errors about 'md5', hex' or 'additional_info' something, it should be automatically fixed on update. you should be able to update from previous to ~422, see it in network->downloader components->manage parsers, and it should just work. many users will have the entry overwritten anyway in the above gelb update I am rolling in. if any of this does still give you trouble, please delete and re-import the affected object(s)
    importing one of these future-versioned serialised objects using the import/export buttons on a multi-column list, either clipboard, json, or png, will cleanly discard future objects with a non-spammy notification
    the Lain drag-and-drop easy downloader import does the same
    the parser 'show what this can parse in nice text' routine now fails gracefully
    multi-column lists now handle a situation where either the display or sort data for a row cannot be generated. a single error popup per list will be generated so as not to spam, bad sorts will be put at the top, and 'unable to render' will occupy all display cells
    network server stuff
    fixed being able to delete an account type in the server admin menu
    the way accounts are checked for permissions serverside now works how the client api does it, unified into a neater system that checks before the job starts
    did some misc server code cleanup, and clientside, prepped for restoring account modification and future improvements

Changelog

    ghost pending tags:

    fixed another ghost pending tags bug. this may have been new or there since the display cache started, I am not sure, but it shouldn't happen again. it was occuring when a pending tag was being committed to 'current' and another tag in its sibling group already existed as a current tag for that file. the pending tag and its count would not clear for non-'all known files' domains, causing ghosts to appear in search pages but not typically manage tags. you may have noticed ghost tags hanging around after a pending commit--this was it. the true problem here was in the 'rescind pending' action that occurs just before an add/commit. a new unit test tests for this situation both for two non-ideal tags being pend-merged, and a non-ideal tag being pend-merged into the existing ideal
    wrote a routine to regenerate pending tag storage and autocomplete counts from scratch for the combined and specific display tag caches. this job is special in that it regens tags instantly without having to reset sibling/parent sync. you can run the job from the database->regen menu. this is the start of 'fix just this tag' maintenance ability
    the pending regen routines will occur on update. it shouldn't take long at all, unless you have five million tags pending, where it could be a couple minutes

    autocomplete shortcuts:

    there is a new shortcut set under file->shortcuts just for tag autocomplete shortcuts. any 'switch searching immediately' shortcut previously on 'main gui' will be migrated over
    the tag autocomplete input text box is now plugged into the new shortcut system and uses this set
    migrated previously hardcoded autocomplete shortcuts to the shortcut system (defaults):
    force search now, for when you have automatic searching turned off (ctrl+space)
    enable IME-friendly mode (insert)
    if input empty, move left/right a tab (left/right arrow)
    if input empty, move left/right a service page (up/down arrow)
    if input empty and on media viewer, move to previous/next media (page up/down)
    misc improvements to my shortcut handler
    misc shortcut code cleanup

    the rest:

    I fixed a bad example url in the new gelbooru file page parser that was sometimes leading to a link to the gallery url class. this was an artifact of an old experiment with md5-search parsing, now fixed with newer redirection tech. the updated parser is folded into update, and if you ended up with the incorrect link, it should be detected, dissolved, and re-linked with the file page parser
    thanks to a user report, wrote a new url class for 420chan's newer thread url format
    sorting a gallery downloader or thread watcher multi-column list by 'status' should now group 'done' and 'paused' items separately
    fixed a bug in the /add_tags/add_tags Client API call when checking some petitioned tags data types. cleaned all that code, it was ugly (issue #788)
    added unit tests for /add_tags/add_tags to test the service_names_to_actions_to_tags parameter better and repository actions, including petitioning with and without specified reason

    code refactoring:

    finally addressing the near-1MB ClientDB file, I have started a framework to break the db into separate modules with their own creation/repair/work responsibilities. this will make the file easier to work on, maintain, update, and test. this week starts off simple, with the master definitions being peeled off into hashes, tags, urls, and texts submodules
    cleaned some misc code around here, including a bunch of related decoupling
    ClientDB.py is now in its own 'db' module as well. the db will further fracture and this module will gain more files in future
    the boot code in the launch scripts is now migrated to the 'hydrus' directory, with the actual launch scripts now doing nicer main checks to not launch the program if you want to play around with importing hydrus. more work to come here
    finished the help's header linking job--all headers across the help are now #fragment links
    misc help cleanup

Changelog

    Misc:

    Fixed a bug in the new taglist backend that would sometimes error out in a paint event(!) on display initialisation or data changes for some clients
    Improved the taglist 'tag' vs 'copyable string' copy/select/action menu logic. e.g. 'namespace:*' is copyable, but it is not a tag
    Thread watchers now skip/clean up unactioned check log entries (this usually happens when a check is due during network traffic paused, queueing the job, and then the client shuts down). if you noticed some odd perpetually 'pending' checkers in last week's status overhaul, this was the issue, and they should clean up. this was always harmless, just revealed with new status code
    Thread watchers now record serious network error detail in the check log
    Thread watchers are quicker about notifying UI on checker log changes
    Thread watchers now report 'time delta' as their simple status when waiting tcheck, rather that 'checking in (time delta)'. let's see if that fits better in the columns
    Fixed an issue where several dialogs with multi-column lists would reset their 'last column' size tthe minimum three characters on the next load if they did not receive certain size events while they were open. you should just have tfix any broken dialogs once and you'll be good again
    I believe I alsimproved/fixed the issue of dialogs with multi-column lists sometimes shrinking by a few pixels every open/close
    The 'we just woke from sleep' detection is now more aggressive. it should now detect a wake after sleeps as short as 60 seconds (down from 5 mins). let's see if we get any false positives during maintenance or other busy periods
    If you have a complicated database (one stored across multiple locations), the 'database' menu now has a label in place of the simple database's 'backup/restore' commands
    Improved the 'directory is writeable-to' check used in the program. on windows, due tsome python tempfile weirdness, this was actually hanging on Program Files.
    Improved the related 'is db dir writeable-to' test in the boot script. if you try trun the program on a custom non-writeable db directory, the crash error should now be nicer, and running a straight client.exe installed t'Program Files' should now auto-place your db in your user folder, ncomplaints, like the macOS App
    Corrected 'writable' typt'writeable' across the program lmao
    Fixed the new header links in the FAQ file, which I accidentally messed up
    Started work on updating neighbouring .txt tag sidecar export. it isn't ready yet, but it will add tag filters and tag display type tsidecar export with easier expansions in future, and fold it nicely intExport Folders
    Improved some log-off detection + clean shutdown code, but I dnot yet have nice multiplatform support

    Filetypes:

    The stacked expand/collapse checkbox widget that lets you select filetypes now always starts collapsed. also, some 'partially clicked' logic is improved when you click through filetype group
    Application/clip (clip studipaint) files are now supported! thanks ta user for helping out here
    Just a side note: I looked intanimated webp support this week, but it turns out decoding support is rarer than encoding. my normal and fairly new FFMPEG can't reliably render subsequent frames or figure out duration, nor can PIL or OpenCV. I think we will simply have twait for an update on one of their ends

    Boring db cleanup:

    Wrote a local hashes cache tstore hashes for all the files on your disk, much like the tag one. this should speed up all normal searches and other common file lookups in the db
    The raw storage mapping tables are spun off ttheir own module
    Basic file infand inbox is spun off tits own module
    Improved and sped up some inboxing file count calculations
    Cleaned up some more misc file metadata and inbox code
    Improved logic in local tags cache

Beitrag von: SiLæncer am 22 Februar, 2021, 10:00
Changelog

+ License changes - Now there is a FREE and PRO version of tinyMediaManager. In the FREE version there is no more limitation of loaded movies/TV shows or API calls.

The FREE version includes:

    base functionality of tinyMediaManager (update data sources, scrape, write/read NFO files, rename, edit, export, command line interface, …)
    TMDB scraper

The PRO version includes also:

    all other scrapers (IMDB, OMDB, Universal, Kodi, …)
    trailer download
    subtitle download
    Trakt.tv integration

+ BIG scraper rework:

We split up all scrapers into individual sub-scrapers for every scope (meta data, artwork, trailer, subtitle). This offers new options to configure them:

    now they are all independently configurable (no setting for the movie section influences the TV show section)
    we could strip out options which are not needed for the actual section (e.g. TV show options in the movie scraper)
    they have a better code base for future changes
    separated country setting for certifications and release date
    The only drawback here is, that you may have to enter some options (like an individual API key) in every sub-scraper
    ATTENTION: since almost everything changed in the scraper setup, you may need to re-set the scraper options after the update

+ added integration of FFmpeg

You can directly download and use FFmpeg on Windows, macOS and Linux - as well as use FFmpeg from your system

    creation of still/thumb creation via FFmpeg #1017
    muxing downloaded trailers using FFmpeg

+ (movie) added full customization in which priority/order the rating should be loaded #986
+ use qualified metadata (title, plot, year, IMDB id, episode/season number) from mediainfo on first import #669 #1065
+ (movie) added an expert mode to the bulk editor to “freely” edit text based fields
+ added a JMTE replacement renderer for custom replacements (movie/TV show, renamer & exporter)
+ added OMDB TV Show scraping
+ added more Columns for Movie Sets
+ added period (year of movies in collection) for Movie Sets
+ added clickable ID Links to the Episode Detail Panel
+ added button in tv show scrape/search window for opening TVShow folder
+ added original title column for TV shows / episodes
+ reworked visualization of ratings
+ added original title column for TV shows / episodes
+ added possibility to play the trailer url in the editor (Movie and TvShow)
+ added option to manual choose artwork in the movie set chooser (as for movies)
x separated country setting for certifications and release date
x rewritten Trakt.tv integration to be more flexible and ready for multiple versions of the same movie/episode #1031 #1081
x exchanged native file dialogs with tiny file dialogs
Windows users will see a change here, because tiny file dialogs uses the “folder browser” component from Windows
x better error messages for SSL errors #1122
x added zxx (No linguistic content) to the language code detection #1125
x allow selecting of E00 in episode chooser for some special episodes #967

Manage large media collections and re-organize them using tags instead of folders that you can share via custom servers with this application.

The Unlicense

Changelog

    Misc:

    'unusual character' collapse logic for short text inputs in tag autocomplete lookups. in human, this means typing 'a' now correctly gives you the tag '/a/' and vice versa (issue #799)
    To make this work, an old database subtag map cache is revived this week in a more efficient form. if you sync with the PTR, it will take a couple minutes to update. the regen routine is also added to the database->regen menu, in case it ever desynchronises in future
    Absent an override referral url, api-linked url fetches now use the original url as referrer. previously they were sending no referrer. this fixes watching spicy boards on 8chan.moe
    Updated a 'get all this stuff' database routine to report more info, and a handful of supermassive jobs (mostly db maintenance regen) now report x/y progress with y, rather than just a nebulous increasing x
    An odd bug in a common UI text-clearing call that was causing real text not to show up for a while after the clear. this was most apparent in the downloader highlight panels, where status text on file/gallery/network status could sometimes stay blank until a change
    The manage tags dialog's "there are several things you can do" button box when you enter tags in complicated situations is now clearer. there are several sorts of intro text on the dialog, the button labels are clearer, and button tooltips have more action information
    The tumblr downloader! sorry for the trouble here, I hadn't realised the situation from some reports. if you have tumblr subs, please go into them and set to 'try again' any recent urls that say 'Found 0 new URLs.'

    Taglists:

    You can now right-click any edit/write taglist (like those across the manage tags dialog) and choose to hide/show the implied parents that now hang underneath tags
    You can set whether this defaults to hide or show, separately for the regular taglists and the autocomplete results dropdown, under options->tags
    The taglist now sorts lexicographically using sibling tag data where available. I had expected to make options here to use storage or ideal tag, but once I tried it out, using the ideal all the time felt proper to me, so let's see how it goes
    The routine that removes mutually exclusive predicates (e.g. system:inbox/archive) when adding to the active search predicates taglist. this fixes the 'exclude xxx from search' menu action and other add/swap actions (issue #815)
    Gave the taglist right-click menu another quick pass. since there are all sorts of actions that may or not appear, and menu items can get pretty wide with tag text, I am trying out an intentionally short and thin top-level menu of 'verbs' that is quick to navigate with your mouse, and then tuck longer and taller stuff in secondary menus

    Boring code cleanup:

    Cleaned and unified a bunch of the new taglist sibling and parents display logic and other legacy variables. it now basically all derives from one storage/display state, so behaviour across the program should be more unified. this may cause confusion in some more advanced dialogs, so let me know anywhere it looks weird
    The 'favourites' autocomplete tab in 'edit/write' a/c dropdowns now show siblings and parents for the current display service
    The tag suggestions favourites dropdowns and taglists in the options now show siblings/parents according to the current service
    The 'url class precedence' routine, which tests more 'specific' url classes first when trying to match an url, has a subtle logic change--now, url classes are first considered more 'specific' according to number of path components and parameters that have no default. this stops an url class with multiple optional parameters overriding another with a single parameter (this is what affected the tumblr downloader above). the specific (descending) sort key is now (required components, total components, required parameters, total parameters, len normalised example url)
    Refactored client object serialisation access routines to a new db module
    Refactored database transaction code and status tracking to a separate object
    Refactored some more tag definition routines to the master tag module

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

Freeware

    Misc:

    when parents are hidden in the edit/write taglists (e.g. in manage tags), there is now a '(n parents)' suffix
    thread watchers that are DEAD or 404 but still have files downloading now report 'working' status until that is done
    search terms with ';' like 'steins;gate' should now work in downloaders. sorry for the trouble!
    fixed an issue where un-ideal tags were sometimes becoming non-searchable when they were entirely replaced in manage tags with their 'ideal' siblings (i.e. their autocomplete count went to 0). this was due to overzealous deletion in the new tag definitions cache not filtering out sibling/parent chain members. a small routine will run on update to resynchronise affected tags
    fixed an issue when loading up files in the main 'import files' dialog where a critical error (as opposed to a nice 'couldn't figure it out, sorry') in mime detection would cause the whole job to hang
    that main 'import files' dialog now counts 'missing' files separately in the error count
    fixed tags not updating on the filename tagging dialog when double-clicking to remove from the simple taglists
    fixed the sort on the manage tags dialog's suggestion taglists--they now preserve their original sort, rather than alphabetising once sibling/parent data is populated
    the manage parser test panel now catches all network errors. error data back from the server is presented better, and the traceback is now viewable in a special new button on the network job control
    the edit shortcut set dialog now gives a veto text popup if you try to ok with a shortcut set twice (previously, it would ok and merge down to one command randomly). support for multiple commands per shortcut will come in future
    entering alt+number in the shortcut entry dialog on windows will no longer spam some errors about 'null character'
    fixed a 'this object is too huge' check in the database, which mostly affects gui sessions with millions of objects, to check against 1 billion bytes max size rather than 1GB, as here https://sqlite.org/limits.html (issue #816)
    fixed the 8chan.moe parser, which was pulling hash incorrectly. it should now save more bandwidth
    updated the e621 parser to pull their (new?) 'lore' tags, which all end in _(lore) and refer to canonical gender and some spice. they come with the 'lore' namespace for now, we'll see how it works out. a user reports these are useful for blacklists

    New string processing sort step (for advanced users):

    string processing objects have a new processing step: String Sorter
    this sorter can sort the whole list of strings, either strict lexicographic or 'human sort' that does numbers properly, asc/desc
    it can also take a regex for the sort 'key', so you can sample just the number or name you want for sort purposes
    content parsers no longer have the 'sort formulae results' controls. any content parser with existing sort has been converted so its string processing object has a String Sort step appended
    the string processing UI is still built around single string processing, so the test UI here is essentially non-functional, but you can see the sort happen in the formula test parse panel
    I will add a String Slicer in future to sample the list of strings, so you'll be able to grab the top item etc...

    Boring code cleanup:

    refactored the refresh call in filename tagging dialog to nicer Qt signals
    the add/remove taglists on the simple panel are also moved to Qt signals
    and so are 'filter' taglists
    fixed some typos in new help text
    removed a 'needs restart' string in 'gui pages' options that no longer does

Changelog

    Tag sorting:

    the tag sort dropdown has been replaced with a dynamic control. rather than one big list with all possible permutations, you now work on each variable (sort type, asc/desc, group by) separately. what you are actually sorting is easier to understand and select
    my stupid "lexicographic/incidence" labelling is replaced with the simpler and neater 'tag', 'subtag', and 'count'
    when in the manage tags dialog and sorting by tag or subtag, you can now turn off the 'use sibling' sort.
    I'd like to further neaten the workflow here, making the individual dropdowns flip back and forth with a mouse scroll in either directior rather than being just up/down allowed. let me know overall how you find this new control
    the 'tag sort' object is updated behind the scenes as well. your old value should be converted automatically
    fixed an issue with count tag sorting where deleted tag counts were being counted even when not displayed
    if you try to search tags on a page of thumbnails that holds an invalid tag, this is now caught gracefully and you get a little popup saying 'please run the repair invalid tags routine'

    Misc:

    the client now gives a once-per-boot warning popup if your session size exceeds 500k. for those who cannot reduce session size conveniently, this popup can be turned off under options->gui pages
    when the file import options prohibit a file due to filesize or resolution etc.., it should now always record that as an 'ignored' result rather than an 'error'
    fixed an unusual error popup in thread watcher display that could occur during session load. this problem seems to have been around for a long time, but it required a watcher in a previously saved and still valid 'wait a bit' error state and was only vulnerable for a few milliseconds, so it hadn't come up before. in any case, it is fixed
    subscriptions with small 'first run' file limits now work better: if you create a subscription with a fairly small 'first run' file limit (this typically matters when the number is smaller than one of the site's gallery page's worth of results), subsequent normal checks with larger file limits will be more aggressive about noticing that they 'caught up' to that small initial sync (previously, they would sometimes incorrectly think the site just got some files tagged out of order and bump right past that initial 'already in db' batch and keep going until they hit their own file limit)

    Advanced string processing:

    added a String Selector/Slicer object to the parsing system. this object allows you to select the nth item in a list of parsed strings or the mth to nth items. m can be 'start' and n can be 'end', and negative indices are allowed for both. pair it with the new Sorter for some neat new tricks!
    the string processing edit UI is now more multi-string-aware. the test panel has had a code cleanup pass and now has a list of all the starting strings in the test data (e.g. all the urls parsed by the formula that launched the UI) rather than just the first, and a list of all results from that list. selecting any of the starting strings populates the 'single string' area, so you can now zoom in on one particular string to see what is happening to it
    the String Sorter edit UI now gets all the strings at that stage of processing, so you can review the sort properly
    the new String Slicer edit UI similarly gets all the strings at that stage of processing
    future updates will expand multi-string presentation and testing. I'd like to show the whole list at each stage

    Server/client api core improvements:

    I had a go at supporting the Range header for file (basically this means anything non-html/json) requests. I added tests and it seems to work. as I understand this mostly applies to browsers pulling video from the Client API. to start, I am supporting single range requests. if it is needed, I'll try to get Multi Range requests right, but for now they'll 416
    the client now understands 416 ("can't do that requested range m8") errors
    I reworked the serverside error handling chain. this has been borked for a long time due to my own lack of understanding of twisted's deferred system, and certain late-stage errors were just not being handled right. the server should no longer hang on these and now should print error info correctly, including a rough 500 in true late emergencies, and terminate the connection correctly

    Boring:

    fixed up a handful of typo-borked unit tests
    fixed my ordinal (xst, xnd, xrd, xth) text generator to deal with 11, 12, and 13 correctly lmao
    started some db maintenance routines and logistics to recover definitions and remove orphans in future, I feel great about it so far, but it'll have to wait for more of my db 'modules' refactoring to be more useful
    updated the mpv dll on the Windows release to 2021-02-28, it may improve some video support/performance
    updated sqlite dll on the Windows release to 3.34.1

EMDB is a small utility to keep track of your DVD collection. With an automatic import from the database of IMDB, export to csv, text or complete website, thumbnail cover preview, a loan tracker, search function and multi-language user interface. EMDB is written in C++ using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 and doesn't need a .NET framework or any other external libraries.

Freeware

Changelog

    Scrapers: You can now configure EMDB to use IMDb or TheMovieDb as main data source.
    Both have advantages and disadvantages.
    TheMovieDb has localized plot outlines, artwork and trailers and holds more (obscure) movies and better cast photos, even for non-American actors / actresses.
    IMDb combines movies and TV Series in searches, has more data for movies, more genres, IMDb top 250 and lists more certifications for different countries.
    But the main advantage of TheMovieDb is that it is FAST: it has an API to get the data instead of having to load webpages in the background and scrape the data.
    The API is WAY faster and more robust. Therefore I decided to make TheMovieDb the default scaper but you can switch back to IMDb if you want.
    Add from Hard disk: Only TV Shows or Movies are now listed for multiple search results depending an type being added.
    EAN UPC lookup: If the title returned by the EAN UPC Service doesn't return a match on IMDb / TMDb the full returned text is now set as title.
    Database: Updating a TV Series resetted the Seasons to Season 1.
    Database: Setting "SEEN" when playing a Media file from EMDB is now optional.
    MediaInfo: Fixed detection for VC-1 Video codec.
    User interface: IMDb Top 250 position of a movie is obscured by the movie poster for movies in the 100+ positions.
    User Interface: Added Container as column to display, print or export.
    Add from Hard disk: Improved determining the folder of a TV Series when scanning adding TV Series from nested folders.
    User interface: Create a Playlist when selecting multiple movies and play them.
    Add from Hard disk: NFO files: added TMDb id when creating NFO files and better follow the Kodi nfo specs.
    Add from Hard disk: NFO files: use TMDb id from NFO file when scraper is set to TheMovieDb.
    User interface: Added more clear warning when media file(s) are going to be deleted when deleting one or more entries in the database.
    User interface: Improve position IMDb and User ratings in the Movie Details Panel.
    Media Files: Fixed detecting wrong external drive mounted.
    Media Files: Fixed Batch Update on Media Labels.
    HTML Export: fixed an issue when a removed template was previously selected.
    HTML Export: updated default template. Also the internal structure is updated. More parts are now templated. Existing custom HTML templates are kept working but should be updated.
    Database: Added 5 custom Version fields.
    Translations: Added translations for (most common) Countries retrieved from IMDb and TheMovieDb.
    Translations: Added some more untranslated texts and improved some English translations.
    Translations: Updated the Slovenian, Portuguese, Arabic, French, German, Spanish, Simplified Chinese and Dutch translations.

    Misc:

    thanks to the effort of a user, this week reintroduces a native twitter downloader! it now gets video! (and 'gifs', which on twitter are just mp4s) please experiment with it and move your nitter subs back to this as you find success. it is called 'twitter syndication' and uses a different access method to get tweet info. it should get the highest resolution videos and images. the search has limited lookup distance, perhaps 500 tweets, but should work for most subscription purposes. this is a first version and may have future updates
    on the main gui, middle-clicking and left-double-clicking to open the 'new page' dialog, and right-clicking to open the page menu, should now only work on the page tabs or page greyspace. middle-clicking on some random downloader page greyspace should no longer spawn these commands. also, tiny change--middle-clicking now activates here on click release rather than press
    on the file sort widget, the asc/desc sort dropdown is now a 'scrollable' menu button. since sorts are just one of two values, you can now scroll either direction to flip it
    the 'collect/leave unmatched' in the collect control is also now a scrollable menu button
    the new tag sort dropdowns are now all scrollable menu buttons. go ham with them
    middle-clicking the collect-by dropdown now clears it
    namespace file sort now supports a-z and z-a sorting. files with none of the matching namespaces still count as 'less than a' in a-z terms, but since I am updating all this code, perhaps this could get more attention. I don't use this much, so if you do, let me know what you would like
    network job controls now show their jobs' current bandwidth limits on their cog menu, split up by network context. you can edit the bandwidth rules directly from this menu, and if it is using defaults, set a specific ruleset
    userpath generation routines used for database location fallback and default export directory determination now recover from failure in the case of undefined user directory. the client will now not boot if the userpath is needed but undefined
    the client api no longer prints empty lists for any tag statuses on file metadata calls, nor service entries that have no tags at all
    fixed the new subscription 'caught up to small initial sync' calculation, which last week was only firing properly after one page of results
    subscriptions are now better about saving interesting status notes on their gallery logs, rather than overwriting with boring 'no new urls found' messages
    fixed a typo bug in the new range header implementation for unended ranges

    Boring cleanup:

    refactored ClientGUICommon and ClientGUIControls to a new 'widgets' module
    refactored the menu buttons from ClientGUICommon to a new ClientGUIMenuButtons
    wrote a mixin for the basic menu button behaviour and simplified the classes
    wrote a new 'choice' menu button that has a dropdown checkbox menu and allows mouse scrolling to navigate the list, with wrapping at boundaries
    refactored the updated network job control to its own file ClientGUINetworkJobControl
    misc db code cleanup and refactoring
    misc tag logic cleanup

The image will then be moved or copied to a folder of your choice corresponding to that key, and the next images is displayed. This allows you to rapidly go through and organize your large amounts of pictures.

Changelog

    Network updates:

    the hydrus network version is now 20. update your clients if you want to keep syncing with the PTR! no rush, but if you try to talk to a new server on an older client, or vice versa, you will get a polite error message
    most of the updates this week are for server administrators and jannies. I have reactivated old functions that were broken long ago and added some new features. the rest is mostly code cleanup and refactoring, improved error handling, preparation for the future, and other unexciting (but still important) work that had piled up

    Clientside network/repo stuff for regular users:

    repositories now have separate pause/play for account sync, update download, and update processing. the confusing old 'working' button is replaced with separate pause/play bitmap buttons
    admins can now attach a message to individual accounts. if you get a message attached, you will see it as a popup message, and on review services, after the next account sync (within a couple of days)
    a hydrus server may now allow automatic account creation. a button to check for creatable account types and then create a new account is added to 'manage services'. the PTR is likely to move to this sort of system for upload siblings/parents permissions, where getting away from my shared blob mega-account will make it easier to group petitions in the janitor workflow
    a logical bug in repository update processing order is fixed. I believe this was the source of some bad siblings for new users who did a lot of syncing in one go. there is no efficient re-processing fix available atm (you'll want 'reprocess content' atm), but I plan to split processing into more pause/play for mappings/siblings/parents, which should add more 'reprocessing' tools
    I cleaned a bunch of the UI code related to networking--in manage services and elsewhere, so there should be fewer bugs, confusion, and UI lag when using these controls. a whole load is still a mess though!
    fixed the 'see special permissions' button in review services
    repositories have a new maintenance function, accessed through the new 'reset downloading' button on review services, that force-resyncs all update hashes. this should fix the unusual issue a handful of users had with an extra (invalid/404ing) update hash on the PTR. this function will also auto-trigger on various error states. the reason some users had an extra update hash in storage is still under investigation

    Other stuff, mostly boring:

    fixed an issue with the new file sort asc/desc button where a transition from 'random' to another sort type using a favourite search would always reset the sort order to the top value
    my asynchronous job object now has a default errback to catch errors more gracefully by default and with special handling in future. clicking an async button in a dialog will now show you the error there and then, rather than just the hidden error popup on the main window
    added convenience links to the latest build on github to the help menu and html help
    fixed another place in local file importing where a file that did not pass file import options checks would set 'skipped' status. in now sets 'ignored' like everything else
    fixed a bug when an 'undelete' call is sent to the media viewer when no media is set (usually during startup/shutdown)
    I disabled progress gauge 'pulsing' across the program. the way this was first implemented applied too often--I will bring it back to only apply when a job is both indeterminate and currently working
    my custom button class can now launch its own yes/no confirmation dialogs on click
    removed a subtag regen routine in the 425->426 update step that was bugging out due to bitrot--it now makes a popup message on boot asking for the routine to be run manually
    fixed a typo bug in the 'subscription snapshot' debug command
    misc ancient python 2-to-3 code cleanup
    updaned cloudscraper to 1.2.58

    Admin stuff:

    Account modification:

    after a very very long delay, account modification is back. if you have permission to manage accounts, you can directly modify accounts using an account key from the services->admin menu, or for tag repositories you can do it from 'manage tags' from the cog menu on a selection of tags, or for file repositories you can do it from the file right-click menu on an uploaded file, or any petition processing page if you have modify accounts permission
    the available account modification routines are: change account type, set/extend/clear expiration, ban, unban, set message (new!)
    the modification routines now print summaries to the server log when they fire, including janny and subject account key
    the server admin menu now lets you see a list of all the accounts on the service, and also launch the new modification window from it for a selection of accounts
    the account modification window is also no longer a dialog, but a normal panel that lets you interact with the rest of the program while open
    the modify UI is now completely async. it loads account information in the background, and all server modification commands and subsequent account refreshing are the same
    the modify UI now lists separate row summaries, including account type and banned info, for all the accounts it is loaded with. accounts can be checked to apply actions only to a subset. you can also copy the checked account keys
    the modify UI also highlights if you are one of the accounts being modified, kek
    the modify UI now shows ban, expiration, and message info, and the 'account info' dict (which is still not great, but can be extended in future), for any listed account when it is clicked
    I have dropped 'superban' (which deleted all the account's previous content contributions along with the ban) for now. it'll likely return in one form or another in a future account permissions overhaul
    fixed some dedupe and de-surplus bugs in the 'modify accounts' logic
    fixed some account ban status presentation logic
    the UI code has been cleaned up generally
    retired the old 'get an account's info' admin menu item, since modify accounts dialog now fetches this better
    hydrus accounts now synchronise twice as fast, every 250,000 seconds

    Account types:

    account types now support optional automatic account creation, default off. it works like a subscription file velocity--'x new accounts per y time delta'.
    modifying account types now prints summaries, with janny account key, to the log
    account types now use a newer data serialisation format. the way they are tracked behind the scenes is neater

    Petitions:

    I did not have time to do the petition overhaul. however, I have prepared the network for it, and I have a plan, so I hope to be able in the coming weeks to improve fetch time for petition counts, make a summary list of all petitions, and implement background petition fetching to improve turnaround time
    the petition UI now has a button to copy the petitioner's account key (e.g if the janny wants to send it to an admin with account modification permission)

    Service options:

    hydrus services now have a separate 'options' object that is synced to all clients alongside account sync. this will be expandable in future without network version hassle
    the options object now contains stub values for 'server message', 'update period', and 'tag filter'. these values are not yet editable, but I will add them and plug them in in the coming weeks
    Boring network/repo update stuff:
    services now print to log when they host on a port. this applies to the server and the client (for client api and local booru)
    the repository update routine is now careful to process updates in index order--previously they were unintentionally processed in pseudorandom order, meaning if the processing backlog was long enough, certain add/delete updates of bad content could occur in reverse order. I believe this was the source of some odd persistent bad siblings some users saw after doing a lot of first-time 'catch-up' processing when first syncing with the client
    the server tracks account_type_keys and account_type_ids in a more careful, service-specific way. all access and modification of account type is cleaned up
    the AccountType object is graduated to the new serialisation format. the server db stores them in a new table and will convert all legacy objects on update
    deleted the double-ancient YAML AccountType
    critical network errors during repository download are now handled a little cleaner and trigger a metadata full resync
    the server is better about exiting cleanly--last-minute repository metadata changes and very recent session keys are saved
    wrote a new account account type change routine for the server. it prints a summary, including janny account key, to the log
    wrote a new account expiration set/extend modification routines for the server. they prints a summary, including janny account key, to the log
    wrote a new ban routine for the server. it prints a summary, including janny account key, to the log
    wrote a new unban routine for the server. it prints a summary, including janny account key, to the log
    wrote a message-set routine for the server. it prints a summary, including janny account key, to the log
    restored and expanded old server db tests for service creation, account initialisation, account type addition and deletion, registration key/access key/account generation, basic mappings addition, account identification by mapping content, and account modifications: account type, ban, unban, set expires, set message
    fleshed out and fixed old server unit tests
    refactored a bunch of server and network code, including to new 'networking' modules, and added a heap of type hints
    refactored all the server-client variable de/serialisation code, and a bunch of network object code
    refactored clientside service ui to a new file
    refactored client network and service panel gui code to new modules
    refactored the client manage services edit panels to their own, less confusing and coupled, classes
    refactored the client review services panels to their own, less confusing and coupled, classes
    cleaned up the clientside service ui, added and migrated to nicer new async functions for server calls
    cleaned a ton of server and network code in general
    cleaned up some json/POST variable parsing
    cleaned admin service menu code

misc

    a new macOS build that should run on Big Sur is now ready, it should be attached to this release. it is built on github automatically, and is thanks to hard work from Suika and ReAnzu. I am attaching my old release as well, just in case I messed up somewhere on my end. if you are a macOS user, please try the new App! it will not work on very old macOS like 10.12, but if this works out today for the majority of macOS users, I will be moving to just putting this new build out going forward. I'll add some polish like the readme.rtf and harmonise the filename etc.. too. I'd love to cut the filesize down, but this may not be possible (it is apparently some modern macOS thing where it bundles old and new versions of libraries in the same App so you basically get it twice)
    the bottom-right corner of the regular media viewer canvas now also shows media zoom
    the StringSorter object now has a simple 'reverse' sort type
    the infamous multi-column list 'last column' width calculations are improved: first, dialogs with multi-column lists should no longer judder back and forth a single character's width as you expand the parent window. also, the last column saved size (which is used in dialog relaunch width initialisation) is now snapped to rounded 5-character intervals, which should mitigate various 'fuzzy' reasons for some dialogs to remember a larger or smaller size and grow or shrink one or more characters' width on the next launch
    the help->debug->gui actions menu has a new entry to reset all multi-column list saved widths back to default
    the 'edit OR predicate' panel when you shift+double-click an OR predicate now expands horizontally and vertically with the window
    the 'edit search predicates' list in the 'edit favourite search' panel now expands vertically with the window
    the client now detects some invalid tag mapping states on tag upload--when a mapping is both current & pending or when it is both deleted and petitioned. these pair-states are mutually exclusive, normally impossible to get to, but one user who nonetheless ended up in this situation encountered an infinite uploading loop to a tag repository (since the tag was already current/deleted, the pending/petitioned status was not clearing correctly on upload commit). now, the upload will be abandoned and an info message put up with the fix
    added a new maintenance routine to database->check and repair that fixes logically inconsistent mappings. it has a popup dialog when it works and forces a pending count refresh and shows a summary afterwards
    the routine that counts up total current or pending mappings on a service when the cached number has been reset is now massively faster (from a 30-60s down to less than a second in my dev tests). it now sums the tag autocomplete cache, rather than counting raw tables
    fixed the BUGFIX option in 'connections' that allows you to disable ssl verification. this will also be extended at a later date to be domain-specific

new server stuff

    a new permission is added to hydrus service accounts--'manage options'. any account with 'manage account types' will get this by default on update
    any account on a repository with 'manage options' permission will now see 'change update period' in the admin services menu! it launches a time delta control with the current update period and will send the new one up to the server. the client will resync account, options, and metadata immediately, and the server will generate any now-due updates immediately, so you should be able to watch changes occur in 'review services' and the server terminal live. other users will catch up to the new time when they next hit an update. various hardcoded check periods (like how often due updates are checked for and delay-buffered clientside and serverside) are shrunk significantly. the whole system should react to changes better
    the minimum settable update time is now 10 minutes (the default value remains 100,000 seconds), but I recommend you try larger, say an hour minimum, at least to start. the network generally works more efficiently with higher numbers, and be warned, if you are adding 144 updates a day, there may be bloat problems after a year
    let me know how this goes, whether you are running a server on a LAN or just a regular user running on one who gets a new update time!
    the new 'full metadata resync' routine now triggers an immediate metadata update sync and wakes the daemon involved, so it should now happen as you watch
    fixed the new pause/play buttons on review services to use neutral pause/play icons, not the downloader pause/play
    brushed up metadata sync status string on review services
    cleaned misc server and network code
    cleaned up some old clientside service code
    the client api now supports wildcard and namespace tags in the file search call
    client api version is now 16
    added https://ififfy.github.io/flipflip/#/ , a slideshow engine that now supports hydrus as a source, to the client api page

Changelog

    macOS:

    I fixed an issue with last week's Big Sur compatible release where it wasn't finding your old database correctly--it was defaulting to a different location, so without a specific launch command otherwise, it started a fresh db and said 'hey, looks like first time you ran the program'. if you are a long-time user of hydrus, please install and run 436 as usual, it should figure out your old db location correctly as ~/Library/Hydrus without any launch command override needed
    If you never ran any of the old macOS builds, and you started using hydrus for the first time on macOS last week with the experimental Big Sur compatible build, your brand new database is in a funky location! don't update yet, or you will delete it! You will want to copy your .db files and the client_files folder from inside_the_435_app/Contents/MacOS/db to ~/Library/Hydrus, which should for most people be /Users/(YOU)/Library/Hydrus. feel free to ask for help if you can't figure this out
    fixed a 'this is macOS' platform check for newer macOS releases, which ensures the 'userpath' fallback is correctly initialised to ~/Library/Hydrus
    fixed the new macOS github workflow build script to tell hydrus that it is running from inside an App, so it knows to default to the userpath fallback correctly
    the macOS build now has the old filename
    it also has the ReadMeFirst.rtf file and Applications shortcut
    collected the new build-related files in static/build_files, which will likely see more files in future

    pending tag cache regen:

    two new maintenance tasks are added to the database->regenerate menu--one that forces a recalc of your total 'pending' count as used in the pending menu, and one that recalculates the cached pending tag mappings for storage tags (just like the display one added some time ago, but one layer deeper). the menu entries are relabelled appropriately
    these routines will be run on database update, and should correct the bad pending menu counts many users discovered last week (the new efficient way that the pending count is calculated exposed some legacy bad cached pending storage mappings entries. we'll see if they come back, or if this is just clearing up bad counts hanging around from ages ago)
    the quick pending mapping cache regen routines take a little longer to initialise now, but they now clear out surplus tag data, rather than just regenerating the 'correct' tags

    misc:

    added an experimental setting to options->tag presentation to replace all underscores in tags with spaces. this is just a render rule, so it will only apply in front-facing 'display' contexts (a bit like how siblings work in search pages, but you see the truth in manage tags), will consume a little more CPU with big lists, and may result in some duplicate rows, but let's see how it goes. this is basically a quick hardcoded hack until there is a more beautiful solution here
    in the two 'Duck' dark QSS styles, removed fixed font size on button labels that wasn't scaling on high DPI screens
    the filename tagging panel now shows parents and siblings correctly on the 'tags for all' and 'tags for selected' taglists. I'd like to show siblings and parents in the file list above in future, but it'll be a bit more tricky to do neatly and without megalag
    GUGs and NGUGs now report their reasons for not being functional in the downloader selector list and subscription errors. typically this will be a missing url class or an url class missing a matching parser, but more complicated example-url-parsing errors will also be outlined
    fixed a bug in the client api in the set-cookies call when no cookies are set, and ensured all cookies added this way are saved permanently (before, some could be lost if that domain was not used in network traffic before the next client shutdown)
    the 'refresh account' button in review services now works on the new async system. it presents errors nicely
    a repository's current update period is now stated in its review services panel
    review services now says 'checking for updates in...' rather than 'next update due...', which is more accurate and will matter more with small update times
    fixed some false positive instances of 'this server was not a tag repo' error in the network engine.
    the hydrus server now also outputs hydrus specific 'Server' header (rather than some twisted default) on 'unsupported request' 404s and any other unusual 'infrastructure' 4XX or 5XX
    if the repository updates in the filesystem are lacking some required file information when calculating what to process, the client now queues those files for a metadata regen maintenance job and raises a cleaner error
    just as a safety measure, if a repository ever happens to deliver a metadata update slice with a 'next update due' time that has already passed, the client now adds a buffer and checks tomorrow instead
    a new program launch argument, db_transaction_commit_time, lets you change how often the database's changes are committed to disk. default is 30 (seconds) for client, 120 for server
    altering the repository update period now prints a summary of the change to the log
    updated the ipfs links in the help
    updated the main help index.html and the github readme.md with the user-run repo and wiki

Changelog

    Misc:

    Hydrus now keeps a track of when files were deleted! this information has never been recorded clientside, and it is sadly not retroactively recoverable, but it is stored for all deletes from now on. on occasion, when hydrus says 'this was deleted from xxx', it will now have 'at an unknown time' or a nice '3 days ago' string attached. it will take a few seconds to update this week as the new table data is created
    The 'trash' panel on review services now has an 'undelete all' button
    Fixed a typo error in manage services when auto-creating a service account when more than one type of account can be created
    The thread watcher page now sorts the status column secondarily by next check time (previously, equal status would sort alphabetically by subject as a fallback secondary sort)
    I have renamed some network concepts across the program. before we had access keys, account keys, and registration keys--now we have access keys (secret password for account), account ids (identifier for account that jannies may need), and registration tokens (one-time token used to create a new account). I hope this reduces some confusion
    Reduced some overhead when fetching media results for a search, and when refreshing their tags on major content updates
    Fixed a 'no such table: mem.temp_int_hash_id_1'-style database error state that could persist for 30 seconds or more after certain rare rollbacks
    Fixed the FlipFlip link html in the client api help
    Fingers crossed, I fixed that bad Applications shortcut in the new macOS release
    Fixed a couple more instances of 'pulsing' progress gauges. now they should be blank

    More efficient updates in sessions with collected media:

    Several updates this week should reduce client UI lag when the session contains any pages with a lot of collected media, particularly when you are also running several downloaders (which spam all sorts of content updates across the client):

    The content update pipeline now tests collections for their files before content processing, and now filters down to process just the updates in a group that apply
    Collections' post-content-update internal data regeneration routine now has more options for fine regen (e.g. no need for tags recalc if the update was 'archive file'), ignores updates for urls and notes (for which it maintains no summary), and only falls back to 'just regen everything' on file location changes
    The 'selection tags' taglist now retains intelligent memory of its previous selection through collect/uncollect events, which reduces collect/uncollect lag on well-tagged files significantly

    Boring multiple local file services stuff:

    I cleaned a bunch of old hardcoded references to 'my files' and related code. it is not very interesting, but there are a few hundred references to clean up and convert to a system that supports 1-to-n local services, and this week I started hacking away, mostly presentation stuff, labels on menus and so on
    Your 'my files' now has a separate deletion record to the 'all local files' domain. its count shows in 'review services', and for the moment will just be 'all local files' plus the count in trash, but this will become more important when you can have multiple 'my files'
    Behind the scenes re-jiggering means that the deletion record now records deletion time and original import time. delete and undelete transitions are neater as a result
    Logically, files are now generally no longer moved to the trash nor undeleted from there, they instead fall there when they are in 'all local files' but no longer in any local domain, and are undeleted back to a specific service. a bunch of awkwardness is cleaned up, and import/delete/undelete content updates are regeared and ready for multiple local file services

    A whole bunch of little things have been fixed and changed behind the scenes. I cleaned file service code in general as I went. examples of little things fixed:

    A 'delete and do not keep a deletion record' action now correctly does not change the cached number of deleted files as reported in review services
    The 'clear deletion record and try again' 'remove from trash' component now uses a unified and improved and UI-updating 'untrash' database action, with correct service count changes and UI-side status changes
    The 'clear deletion record and try again' action on downloader import queues now handles mixes of actually deleted files and files just in trash more neatly
    In the very odd situation that you are looking at a non-local file on 'all known files' and it is then imported using 'archive on import', its thumbnail and metadata now fade in correctly as archived
    Added some unit tests to test the new file delete/undelete transitions
    Cleaned up a bunch of hacky old db SELECT code

    Media viewer:

    I have hacked in tile-based image rendering for the media viewer. this has always been planned as a larger, longer-term job, but the problem of large images is only getting worse, so I decided to just slam out a prototype in a week. if you have a steam-powered GPU or 4GB ram, you might like to wait until next week to update so I can iron out any surprise bugs or performance problems
    Images are now cut into tiles that are rendered on demand, so whenever the image is zoomed larger than the media viewer window, only those tiles currently in view have CPU and memory spent on resizing and storage. as you pan around, new tiles are rendered as needed, and old discarded. this makes zooming in super fast and low memory, even for large images!
    Although I am happy with this, and overall we are talking a huge improvement on previous performance, it is ugly fast code. it may fail for some unusual files. it slices and blits bitmaps around your video memory much faster than before, so some odd GPUs may also have problems. I haven't seen any alignment artifacts (1-pixel thick missing columns or rows), but some images may produce them. more apparent are some pretty ugly tile artifacts that show up between 200% and 500% zoom (interpolation algorithms, which rely on neighbour pixels, are missing border data with my simple system). I will consider how best to implement more complicated but stitch-correct overlapping tiles in future
    Futhermore, a new 'image tile' cache is added. you can customise size and timeout under options->speed and memory like for images and thumbnails. this is a dedicated cache for remembering image resize computation across images and zooms. once you have seen both situations once, flicking back and forth between two images or zoom levels is now generally always instant! this new cache starts at a healthy default of 256MB. let's see how that amount works out IRL--I think it will be plenty
    I tuned the image renderer cache--it no longer caches huge images that eat more than 25% its total size--meaning these images only hang around as long as you are looking at them--and the prefetch call that pre-renders several files previous/next to the current image no longer occurs on images that would eat more than 10% the cache size. this should greatly reduce weird flicker and other lag when browsing through a series of mega-images (which before would stomp through the cache in quick succession, barging each other out of the way and wasting a bunch of CPU). in real world terms, this basically means that with an image cache of 200MB, you should have slower individual image performance but much better overall performance looking at images with more than about 5k resolution. the dreaded 14,000x12,000 png will still bonk you on the head to do the first render, but it won't try to uselessly prefetch or flush the whole cache any more
    If you are currently looking at a static image, neighbour prefetch now only starts once the image is rendered, giving the task in front of you a bit more CPU time
    New options for prefetch delay and previous/next distance are added to 'speed and memory'
    Note this does not yet apply to the old hydrus animation renderer. that still sucks at high zoom!
    Another future step here is to expand prefetch to tiles so the first view of the 'next' media is instant, but let's let all this breathe for a bit. if you get bugs, let me know!
    Due to a Qt issue, I am stopping zoom-in events that would make the 'virtual' size of the image greater than 32,000x32,000

    Account permission improvements:

    To group sibling and parent petitions by uploader (and thus help janitor workflow), the PTR is moving to a system where the public account is download-only and accounts that can upload content are auto-generated in manage services. this code has not been tested much before, and it revealed some very bad reporting and handling of current permissions. I move this forward this week:

    If your repository account is currently unsynced from a serious previous error, any attempt to upload pending data will result in a little popup and the upload being abandoned
    Manage tag siblings and parents will now show service tabs even if the account for those services does not seem currently able to upload tags or siblngs
    If your repository account is currently unsynced from a serious previous error, this is now noted in red text in manage siblings and manage parents
    If your repository account does not have sibling/parent upload permission, this is now noted in red text in manage siblings and manage parents. you will be able to pend and petition siblings and parents ok
    If your repository account does not have mapping/sibling/parent upload permission of the right kind, your client will no longer attempt to upload these content types, and if there is pending count for one of these types, a popup will note this on an upload attempt

    The rest:

    Added https://github.com/NO-ob/LoliSnatcher_Droid to the Client API help!
    Improved some error handling, reporting, and recovery when importing serialised pngs. specific error info is now written to the log as well
    Fixed a secondary error when dropping non-list, non-downloader pngs on Lain's easy downloader import window, and fixed a 'no interesting objects' reporting test when dropping multiple pngs
    Added a 'cache report mode' to help debug image and thumb caching issues
    Refactored the media viewer code to a new 'canvas' submodule
    Improved the error reporting when a thumbnail cannot be generated for a file being imported
    Fixed an error in zoom center calculation when a change zoom event was sent in the split-second during media viewer initialisation
    I think I fixed an issue where pages could sometimes not automatically move on from 'loading initial files' statusbar text when initialising the session
    The requirements.txt now specifies 'requests' 2.23.0 exactly, as newer versions seemed to be giving odd urllib3 attribute binding errors (seems maybe a session thread safety thing) when recovering from connection failures. this should update the macOS build as well as anyone running from source who wants to re-run the requirements.txt. I hacked in a catch for this error case anyway, just a manual retry like a normal connection error, we'll see how it goes (issue #665)
    Patched an unusual file import bug for a flash file with an inverted bounding box that resulted in negative reported resolution. flash now takes absolute values for width and height

Changelog

    Tiled image renderer improvements:

    I believe I fixed the 'non c-contiguous' crash issue with the new tile renderer. I had encountered this while developing, but it was still happening in rare situations--I think in an unlucky edge case where a zoomed tile had the same resolution as the full image rotated by ninety degrees! there is now an additional catch for this situation, as well, to catch any future logical holes.
    Fixed a bug in the new renderer when copying an image to clipboard

    I greatly mitigated the tiling artifacts with two changes:

    Zoomed in tiles are now resized with a padding area of up to 4 pixels, with the actual tile cropped afterwards, which allows bilinear and lancsoz interpolation to get accurate neighbour data and have gradient math line up with neighbouring tiles more accurately
    On resize and zoom, media canvases now dynamically change tile size to 'neater' float/integer conversion dimensions to reduce sub-pixel panning alignment artifacts (e.g. if your zoom is 300%, the tile is now going to have a dimension that is a multiple of 3)
    I hacked in a 'rescue offscreen media' calculation after any zoom event. now, if the window is completely out of view after a zoom, it'll snap to the nearest borders, lining against them or overlapping into a buffer zone depending on the zoom. let me know what you think!
    I fixed a PyQt5 specific object tracking bug, I think the new renderer now works ok for PyQt5!
    Cleaned up some ugly code in the resize section that may have been resulting in incorrect interpolation algorithm choice in some situations
    Fixed a divide by zero issue when zooming out tiny images hugely (e.g. 32x32 at 1%)
    Media windows now try to have at least 1x1 size, just to catch some other weird error situations
    Similarly, tile and native sample sizes will have a minimum of size 1x1, which should fix issues during a delayed startup (issue #872)
    Cleaned up some misc media viewer and tile renderer code

    The rest:

    I started the next round of database optimisation tech, mostly testing out a pipeline upgrade. autocomplete fetching and wildcard file searching for very large queries should be a little faster to cancel now, and in some situations they should be a little faster. they may be slower for very small jobs, but I expect it to be unnoticeable. if you feel autocomplete is suddenly slow and laggy, let me know!
    I optimised the basic 'ideal sibling normalisation' database query. this is used in a lot of places, so the little saving here should improve a bunch of work
    I greatly optimised autocomplete sibling population, particularly for searches with a lot of tag results
    I brushed up the tag import options UI: changed the 'use defaults' checkbox to a dropdown with clear labels for both modes; renamed the 'fetch tags even if' tag import options to 'force page fetch', which is a better description, and added tooltips to describe their ideal use; added tooltips to blacklist and whitelist; and hid the 'load from defaults' button if not set to view specific options
    Added a 'imgur single media file url' File URL Class, which points to direct file links without a referral header, which should fix some situations where these urls were pointed to by other site parsers
    Collections now store the most recent import timestamp of their contents as the aggregate for time imported. previously they had no value, so would sort randomly with each other. collections therefore now sort by time imported reliably with each other, even if there is no 'correct' answer here
    These new timestamps and service presence generally, and aggregated archive/inbox status, (all of which can update thumbnail display) is now recalculated when files are removed from the collection. so, hitting right-click->remove->inbox will now update collections with a mix of archived and inboxed to remove the inbox icon immediately
    As the "Retry has no attribute..." network errors have appeared in new forms, I gave the core of the problem another look. we could never really figure this out, but it seemed to be a network version thread safety issue. I think I have ruled this out, and I now believe these may have been occuring during faulty pickling during network session save/load. I fixed the problem here, so with luck this issue will not reappear--if you have had this a lot, let me know how you get on!
    I broke the requirements.txt into several variants based on platform. we are going to try to pin down good fixed versions of python-mpv and requests/urllib3 for each platform
    I also updated the 'running from source' help significantly, moving everything to the requirements.txt and making sections for things like FFMPEG and libmpv
    Also updated the source and contact help around my work style and contact preferences
    The test.py file now only does the final input() confirmation if there is an interactive stdin to respond

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

Changelog

    Tiled renderer:

    The tiled renderer now has an additional error catching layer for tile rendering and coordinate calculation and should be immune to to the crashes we have seen from unhandled errors inside Qt paint events
    When a tile fails to render, a full black square will be used instead. additional error information is quickly printed to the log
    Fixed a tile coordinate bug related to viewer initialisation and shutdown. when the coordinate space is currently bugnuts, now nothing is drawn
    If the image renderer encounters a file that appears to have a different resolution to that stored in the db, it now gives you a popup and automatically schedules a metadata regen job for that file. this should catch legacy files with EXIF rotation that were imported before hydrus understood that info
    When a file completes a metadata regen, if the resolution changed it now schedules a force-regen of the thumbnail too

    The rest:

    Added a prototype 'delete lock' for archived files to options->files and trash (issue #846). this will be expanded in future when the metadata conditional object is made to lock various other file states, and there will be some better UI feedback, a padlock icon or similar, and some improved dialog texts. if you use this, let me know how you get on!
    You can now set a custom namespace sort in the file sort menu. you have to type it manually, like when setting defaults in the options, but it will save with the page and should load up again nicely in the dialog if you edit it. this is an experiment in prep for better namespace sort edit UI
    Fixed an issue sorting by namespaces when one of those namespaces was hidden in the 'single media' tag context. now all 'display' tags are used for sort comparison groups. if users desire the old behaviour, we'll have to add an option, so let me know
    The various service-level processing errors when update files are missing or janked out now report the actual hash of the bad update file. I am chasing down one of these errors with a couple of users and cannot quite figure out why the repair code is not auto-fixing things
    Fixed a problem when the system tray gets an activate event at unlucky moments
    The default media viewer zoom centerpoint is now the mouse
    Fixed a typo in the client api with wildcard/namespace tag search--sorry for the trouble!

    Some boring multiple local file services cleanup:

    If you have a mixture of trash and normal thumbnails selected, the right-click menu now has separate choices for 'delete trash' and 'delete selected' 'physically now'
    If you have a mixture of trash and normal thumbnails selected, the advanced delete dialog now similarly provides separate 'physical delete' options for the trashed vs all
    Media viewer, preview viewer, and thumbnail view delete menu service actions are now populated dynamically. it should say 'delete from my files' instead of just 'delete'
    In some file selection contexts, the 'remote' filter is renamed to 'not local'

Manage large media collections and re-organize them using tags instead of folders that you can share via custom servers with this application.

The Unlicense

Changelog

    Misc:

    after successful testing, all the master builds are now made on github rather than my home dev situation. the clients now work off python 3.8, and several security libraries (e.g. OpenSSL) are now always going to be latest, so there should be several quiet performance and reliability improvements across the program. there are no special install instructions--normal update seems to go fine--but let me know if you do have any trouble. big thanks to the user who did the leg work on developing the workflow build scripts here
    if you are in advanced mode, namespace file sorting now allows you to set the 'tag display context' on which it will sort. this appears as a new menu button or a button list selection dialog wherever you edit namespace file sorts. if you are not in advanced mode, the default is the 'display tags' I switched to last week (i.e. before any tags are hidden by your tag display options)
    namespace sort has some related code cleanup. the 'defaults' object is updated and moved to the newer options object
    the new tiled renderer now checks for rounding errors in zoom calc, which in some cases was giving a single extra (non-existing) native pixel row or column on rightmost or bottommost tile samples
    the new tiled renderer now double-checks clip regions for validity before attempting to crop
    improved the reported error information when a tile fails to render
    when pasting an uneven number of tags into manage siblings/parents, the error is now a nicer popup dialog. I'm pursuing a related error here--if you get this a bunch, please let me know what more info you discover
    when repositories fail to fetch the update hashes to process, they now force a metadata resync. any processing error should force a metadata resync now
    added a default url class for the new pixiv artist page format
    fixed a recent typo bug with ipfs pinning

    Client api additions:

    the client api has a new /manage_headers/set_user_agent call, which is a simple hack for now for external programs to set the 'Global' User-Agent. it should allow for some CloudFlare solutions when just copying cookies is not enough
    the client api has a new /get_services call, which talks about more services and also exposes service_keys for the first time, which are likely to be useful in future. check out the help for an example. the old /add_tags/get_tag_services call is now deprecated, please move to the new call
    the client api /version call now responds with 'hydrus_version' as well, which this week will be 441
    the client api now has a semi-experimental /manage_database/lock system, just like the server's. a new 'manage database' permission is added for this. don't play around with this system idly.
    the client api should now support sha256 hash parameters if they start with a type prefix like 'sha256:0123789abcdef...'
    the client and server's database lock commands now wait up to five seconds for the database to finish disconnecting to respond
    expanded client api unit tests to cover the above
    the client api version is now 17

    Boring multiple local file services work:

    the main search object now stores the file domain using a new 'location context' object that will in future hold multiple file services and can say whether we should search files currently in a domain, or those once deleted from it. a variety of back-end search code has been updated to deal with this more flexible situation
    removed more static references to the single 'my files' domain in db and related code. in a couple places, like mr. bones, it now fetches 'all local files', but this will likely be updated in future to a new umbrella 'all non-trash, non-repo-update-files local files' service

    Gui sessions:

    gui sessions are no longer a monolithic object! now, each page is stored in the database separately, and when a session saves, only those pages that have had changes since the last save are written to db. this will massively reduce long-term HDD writes for clients with large sessions and generally reduce lag during session save intervals
    the new gui sessions are resilient against database damage--if a page fails to load, or is missing from the new store, its information will be recorded and saved, but the rest of the session will load
    the new page storage can now be shared across sessions. multiple backups of a session that use the same page now point to the same record, which massively reduces the size of client.db for large-sessioned clients
    your existing sessions and their backups will obviously be converted to the new system on update. if any fail to load or convert, a backup of the original object will be written to your database directory. the conversion shouldn't take more than a minute or two
    the old max-object limit at which a session would fail to save was around 10M files and/or 500k urls total. it equated to a saved object of larger than 1Gb, which hit an internal SQLite limit. sessions overall now have no storage limit, but individual pages now inherit the old limit. Please do not hurry to try to test this out with giganto pages. if you want to make do a heap of large long-term downloaders, please spread the job across several pages
    it seems URLs were the real killer here, so I am rebalancing it so URLs now count for 20 weight each. the weight limit at which point a page will now fail to save, and the client will start generally moaning at you for the whole session (which can be turned off in the options), is therefore raised to 10M. most of the checks are still session-wide for now, but I will do more work here in future
    if you are in advanced mode, then each page now gives its weight (including combined weight for 'page of pages') from its tab right-click menu. with the new URL weight, let's get a new sense of where the memory is actually hanging around IRL
    the page and session objects are now more healthily plugged into my serialisation system, so it should be much easier to update them in future (e.g. adding memory for tag sort or current file selection)

    The rest:

    when subscriptions die, the little reporting popup now includes the death file velocity ('it found fewer than 1 files in the last 90 days' etc...)
    the client no longer does vacuums automatically in idle time, and the soft/full maintenance action is removed. as average database size has grown, this old maintenance function has increasingly proved more trouble than it is worth. it will return in future as a per-file thing, with better information to the user on past vacuums and empty pages and estimates on duration to completion, and perhaps some database interrupt tech so it can be cancelled. if you really want to do a vacuum for now, do it outside the program through a SQLite intepreter on the files separately
    thanks to a user submission, a yande.re post parser is added that should grab tags correct if you are logged in. the existing moebooru post parser default has its yande.re example url removed, so the url_class-parser link should move over on update
    for file repositories, the client will not try to sync thumbnails until the repository store counts as 'caught up' (on a busy repo, it was trying to pull thumbs that had been deleted 'in the future'). furthermore, a 404 error due a thumb being pulled out of sync will no longer print a load of error info to the log. more work will be needed here in future
    I fixed another stupid IPFS pin-commit bug, sorry for the trouble! (issue #894)
    some maintenance-triggered file delete actions are now better about saving a good attached file delition reason
    when the file maintenance manager does a popup with a lot of thumbnail or file integrity checks, the 'num thumbs regenned/files missing or invalid' number is now preserved through the batches of 256 jobs
    thoroughly tested and brushed up the 'check for missing/invalid files' maintenance code, particularly in relation to its automatic triggering after a repository processing problem, but I still could not figure out specifically why it is not working for some users. we will have to investigate and try some more things
    fixed a typo in client api help regarding the 'service_names_to_statuses_to_display_tags' variable name (I had 'displayed' before, which is incorrect)

    Build fixes:

    fixed the new Linux and Windows extract builds being tucked into a little 'ubuntu'/'windows' subfolder, sorry for the trouble! They should both now have the same (note Caps) 'Hydrus Network' as their first directory
    fixed the new Linux buld having borked permissions on the executables, sorry for the trouble!
    since I fixed the urllib3 problem we had with serialised sessions and Retry objects, I removed it from the requirements.txts. now 'requests' can pull what it likes
    after testing it with the new build, it looks like I was mistaken years ago that anyone could run hydrus from source when inside a 'built' release (due to dll conflicts in CWD vs your python install). maybe this is now only true in py3 where dll loading is a little different, but it was likely always true and my old tests only ever worked because I was in the same/so-similar environment so the dlls were not conflicting. in any case the builds no longer include the .py/.pyw files and the 'hydrus' source folder, since it just doesn't seem to work. if you want to run from source, grab the actual source release in a fresh, non-conflicting directory. I've updated the help regarding this, sorry for any trouble or confusion you have ever run into here
    updated the running from source document to talk more about actually getting the source and fleshed out the info about running the scripts

    Misc boring refactoring and db updates:

    created a new 'pages' gui module and moved Pages, Thumbs, Sort/Collect widgets, Management panel, and the new split Session code into it
    wrote new container objects for sessions, notebook pages, and media pages, and wrote a new hash-based data object for a media page's management info and file list
    added a table to the database for storing serialised objects by their hash, and updated the load/save code to work with the new session objects and manage shared page data in the hashed storage
    a new maintenance routine checks which hashed serialisables are still needed by master containers and deletes the orphans. it can be manually fired from the database->maintenance menu. this routine otherwise runs just after boot and then every 24 hours or every 512MB of new hashed serialisables added, whichever comes first
    management controllers now discard the random per-session 'page key' from their serialised key lookup, meaning they serialise the same across sessions (making the above hash-page stuff work better!)
    improved a bunch of access and error code around serialised object load/save
    improved a heap of session code all over
    improved serialised object hashing code

Changelog

    Quality of life:

    When subscriptions hit their 'periodic file limit', which has always been an overly technical term, the popup message now explains the situation in better language. it also now provides a button to automatically fill in the gap via a new gallery downloader page called 'subscription gap downloaders' that gets the query with a file limit five times the size of the sub's periodic download limit
    I rewrote the logic behind the 'small initial sync, larger periodic sync' detection in subscription sync, improving url counting and reliability through the third, fourth, fifth etc... sync, and then generalised the test to also work without fixed file limits and for large-gallery sites like pixiv, and any site that has URLs that often produce multiple files per URL. essentially, subs now have a nice test for appropriate times to stop url-adding part way through a page (typically, a sub will otherwise always add everything up to the end of a page, in order to catch late-tagged files that have appeared out of order, but if this is done too eagerly, some types of subs perform inefficiently)
    This matters for PTR accounts: if your repository account does not have permissions to upload something you have pending, the popup message talking about this now hangs around for longer (120 seconds), explains the issue better, and has a button that will take you directly to the manage services panel for the service and will hit up 'check for auto-account creation'
    In manage services, whenever you change the credentials (host, port, or access key) on a restricted service, that service now resets its account to unknown and flags for a swift account re-fetch. this should solve some annoying 'sorry, please hit refresh account in review services to fix that manually' problems
    A new option in maintenance and processing allows you to disable idle mode if the client api has had a request in the past x minutes. it defaults disabled
    An important improvement to the main JobScheduler object, which farms out a variety of small fast jobs, now massively reduces Add-Job latency when the queue is very busy. when you have a bunch of downloaders working in the background, the UI should have much less lag now
    The options->speed and memory page has a full pass. the thumbnail, image, and image tile caches now have their own sections, there is some more help text, and the new but previously hardcoded 10%/25% cache and prefetch limits are now settable and have dynamic guidance text that says 'about a 7,245x4,075 image' as image cache options change
    All the cache options on this page now apply instantly on dialog ok. no more client restart required!

    Other stuff, mostly specific niche work:

    Last week's v441->442 update now has a pre-run check for free disk space. users with large sessions may need 10GB or more of free space to do the conversion, and this was not being checked. I will now try to integrate similar checks into all future large updates
    Fixed last week's yandere post parser link update--the post url class should move from legacy moebooru to the new yandere parser correctly
    The big maintenance tasks of duplicate file potentials search and repository processing will now take longer breaks if the database is busy or their work is otherwise taking a long time. if the client is cluttered with work, they shouldn't accidentally lag out other areas of the program so much
    Label update on ipfs service management panel: the server now reports 'nocopy is available' rather than 'nocopy is enabled'
    Label update on shortcut: 'open a new page: search page' is now '...: choose a page'
    Fixed the little info message dialog when clicking on the page weight label menu item on the 'pages' menu
    'database is complicated' menu label is updated to 'database is stored in multiple locations'
    Options->gui pages->controls now has a little explanatory text about autocomplete dropdowns and some tooltips
    Migrate database dialog has some red warning text up top and a small layout and label text pass. the 'portable?' is now 'beneath db?'
    The repositery hash_id and tag_id normalisation routines have two improvements: the error now shows specific service_ids that failed to lookup, and the mass-service_hash_id lookup now handles the situation where a hash_id is mapped by more than one service_id
    Repository definition reprocessing now corrects bad service_id rows, which will better heal clients that previously processed bad data
    The client api and server in general should be better about giving 404s on certain sorts of missing files (it could dump out with 500 in some cases before)
    It isn't perfect by any means, but the autocomplete dropdown should be a little better about hiding itself in float mode if the parent text input box is scrolled off screen
    Reduced some lag in image neighbour precache when the client is very busy

    Boring code cleanup:

    Removed old job status 'begin' handling, as it was never really used. jobs now start at creation
    Job titles, tracebacks, and network jobs are now get/set in a nicer way
    Jobs can now store arbitrary labelled callable commands, which in a popup message becomes a labelled button
    Added some user callable button tests to the 'make some popups' debug job
    File import queues now have the ability to discern 'master' Post URLs from those that were created in multi-file parsing
    Wrote the behind the scenes guts to create a new downloader page programmatically and start a subscription 'gap' query download
    Cleaned up how different timestamps are tracked in the main controller

Beitrag von: SiLæncer am 13 Juni, 2021, 09:30
Changelog

    TV Mode: Added new viewing mode TV Mode. Triggered by questions like "Using EMDB on my big screen TV I can't read the plot outline" and "can you add a keyboard shortcut for this and that as we use EMDB to play my media files on our TV in the living room" I decided to create a new feature: TV Mode. It shows a full screen graphical overview of your movies with boxart, backdrop and media properties. You can browse your movies and TV Shows including seasons and episodes. It's designed to show on big full HD wide screens but all resolutions are supported. It's designed to be controlled by keyboard (or even better a infrared USB receiver mapping remote control buttons to keystrokes). Backdrops are automatically downloaded in the background if TMDB Id is present (IMDb does not hold backdrops). MediaInfo is automatically scanning media files and TV Series episodes in the background if the data is not available yet. Hope you like it. I do.
    System: Added option to import customization key in the aboutbox.
    User interface: Added keyboard shortcuts for marking as seen (Ctrl-S) and open file location (Ctrl-O).
    IMDb Import: Improved reading plot outline from new layout.
    TV Series: TVSeries now stores media data per episode (only shown in TV Mode for now).
    System: EMDB doesn't need its used fonts to be installed anymore to be even more portable.
    Database: added Bit depth field.
    Media Info: Improved detecting AAC audio codec.
    Add / Edit dialog: Fixed displaying HDR after MediaInfo scan.
    Media Info: retrieve Bit depth from media file.
    Actor Edit: photo edits were not canceled when using cancel button.
    Startup: Check for hotfix is now always executed regardless the check for updates setting as a lot of people missed the last hotfix which fixed the broken IMDb import.
    Add / Edit Movie: clicking on a actor photo did not save the movie (or changes) before seaching for movies with this actor.
    Edit Movie: Update didn't add more actors. Original ones including the order is still preserved to protect custom editing.
    Batch update: An Update completely replaced the existing cast. Now the existing cast including the order is preserved to protect custom editing. If needed more actors are added or the list is limited if too many are listed according the Data Source settings.
    (Batch) Update: Made updating of the color field optional.
    Artwork: added backdrops (for now only shown in TV Mode).
    Batch update: added support for updating backdrops.
    Backups: Improved full backup with multiple databases if a non default database was selected.
    Add / Edit: Fixed height of Add / Edit screen when EMDB is not on the primary monitor.
    System: Fixed start position of the main window when EMDB is not on the primary monitor.
    Translations: Updated the Swedish, Catalan, French, German and Dutch translations.

Manage large media collections and re-organize them using tags instead of folders that you can share via custom servers with this application.

The Unlicense

Changelog

    Gave the 'access keys' and 'privacy' help pages a complete pass. the access keys section talks about the read-only shared key, and how to generate you own account, and the privacy section now compiles, as comprehensively as I could, our various discussions about multiple accounts, what you shouldn't upload to the PTR (basically your own name lol), self-signed https certificates, and what information is actually stored on an account
    Expanded the 'getting started - installing' help page with a 'how to run the client' section, including bundling the excellent Linux virtual memory guide written by a user
    Fixed the new 'fill in subscription with gap downloader' button, which was initialising with the wrong downloader at times (usually on the first gap downloader opened, when it opened a new page with it)
    You can now set 'all known files' for the tag autocomplete in 'write' contexts (e.g. manage tags dialog) when not in advanced mode
    Cleaned up how a variety of delayed UI calls are registered and present information about themselves. every UI job now has a nice human name for debug purposes. this should improve program stability and clear some odd rare errors when closing some dialogs (this mostly affected certain linux users)
    When an asynchronous UI job fails with a dead window, or if fails to publish to its window for a non-dead reason and then the window dies before that failure returns, the error handling code now catches and silences the error. an example of this would be clicking 'refresh account' on review services, then closing the window before the lagging job raises 'connection failure'
    When windows are rescued from off screen, their frame key is now stated in the popup note
    If your version of OpenCV is unable to load PNG files, your client should now be able to load serialised object PNGs (like those in the downloader system) correctly (the same PIL fallback for regular media files now works for deserialisation too)
    The hydrus log path is finally month-zero-padded, ha ha ha

Changelog

    Misc:

    Fixed some weird bugs on the pathname tagging dialog related to removal and re-adding of tags with its 'tags just for selected files' list. previously, in some circumstances, all selected paths could accidentally share the same list of tags, so further edits on a subset selection could affect the entire former selection
    Furthermore, removing a tag from that list when the current path selection has differing tags should now successfully just remove that tag and not accidentally add anything
    If your client has a pending menu with 'sticky' small tag count that does not seem to clear, the client now tries to recognise a specific miscount cause for this situation and gives you a little popup with instructions on the correct maintenance routine to fix it
    When pending upload ends, it is now more careful about when it clears the pending count. this is a safety routine, but it not always needed
    When pending count is recalculated from source, it now uses the older method of counting table rows again. the new 'optimised' count, which works great for current mappings, was working relatively very slow for pending count for large services like the PTR
    Fixed rendering images at >76800% zoom (usually 1x1 pixels in the media viewer), which had broke with the tile renderer
    Improved the serialised png load fix from last week--it now covers more situations
    Added a link, https://github.com/GoAwayNow/Iwara-Hydrus, to Iwara-Hydrus, a userscript to simplify sending Iwara videos to Hydrus Network, to the client api help
    It should now again be possible to run the client on Windows when the exe is in a network location. it was a build issue related to modern versions of pyinstaller and shiboken2
    Thanks to a user's help, the UPnPc executable discoverer now searches your PATH, and also searches for 'upnpc' executable name as a possible alternative on linux and macOS
    Also thanks to a user, the test script process now exits with code 1 if the test is not OK

    Optimisations:

    When a db job is reading data, if that db job happens to fall on a transaction boundary, the result is now returned before the transaction is committed. this should reduce random job lag when the client is busy
    Greatly reduced the amount of database time it takes to check if a file is 'already in db'. the db lookup here is pretty much always less than a millisecond, but the program double-checks against your actual file store (so it can neatly and silently fill in missing files with regular imports), however on an HDD with a couple million files, this could often be a 20ms request! (some user profiles I saw were 200ms!!! I presume this was high latency drives, and/or NAS storage, that was also very busy at the time). since many download queues will have bursts of a page or more of 'already in db' results (from url or hash lookups), this is why they typically only run 30-50 import items a second these days, and until this week, why this situation was blatting the db so hard. the path existence disk request is pulled out of precious db time, allowing other jobs to do other db work while the importer can wait for disk I/O on its thread. I suspect the key to getting the 20ms down to 8ms will be future granulation of the file store (more than 256 folders when you have more than x files per folder, etc...), which I have plans for. I know this change will de-clunk db access when a lot of importers are working, but we'll see this week if the queues actually process a little faster since they can now do file presence checks in parallel and with luck the OS/disk will order their I/O requests cleverly. it may or may not relieve the UI hangs some people have seen, but if these checks are causing trouble it should expose the next bottleneck
    Optimised a small test that checks if a single tag is in the parent/sibling system, typically before adding tags to a file (and hence sometimes spammed when downloaders were working). there was a now-unneeded safety check in here that I believe was throwing off the query planner in some situations
    The 'review threads' debug UI now has two new tabs for the job schedulers. I will be working with UI-lag-experiencing users in future to see where the biggest problems are here. I suspect part of it will overhead from downloader thread spam, which I have more plans for
    All jobs that threads schedule on main UI time are now profiled in 'callto' profile mode

    Site encoding fixes:

    Fixed a problem with webpages that report an encoding for which there is no available decoder. This error is now caught properly, and if 'chardet' is available to provide a supported encoding, it now steps in fixes things automatically. for most users, this fixes japanese sites that report their encoding as "Windows-31J", which seems to be a synonym for Shift-JIS. the 'non-failing unicode decode' function here is also now better at not failing, ha ha, and it delivers richer error descriptions when all attempts to decode are non-successful
    Fixed a problem detecting and decoding webpages with no specified encoding (which defaults to windows-1252 and/or ISO-8859-1 in some weird internet standards thing) using chardet
    If chardet is not available and all else fails, windows-1252 is now attempted as a last resort
    Added chardet presence to help->about. requests needs it atm so you likely definitely have it, but I'll make it specific in requirements.txt and expand info about it in future

    Boring code cleanup:

    Refactored the base file import job to its own file
    Client import options are moved to a new submodule, and file, tag, and the future note import options are refactored to their own files
    Wrote a new object to handle current import file status in a better way than the old 'toss a tuple around' method
    Implemented this file import status across most of the import pipeline and cleaned up a heap of import status, hash, mime, and note handling. rarely do downloaders now inspect raw file import status directly--they just ask the import and status object what they think should happen next based on current file import options etc...
    A url file import's pre-import status urls are now tested main url first, file url second, then associable urls (previously it was pseudorandom)
    A file import's pre-import status hashes are now tested sha256 first if that is available (previously it was pseudorandom). this probably doesn't matter 99.998% of the time, but maybe hitting 'try again' on a watcher import that failed on a previous boot and also had a dodgy hash parser, it might
    Misc pre-import status prediction logic cleanup, particularly when multiple urls disagree on status and 'exclude previously deleted' is unchecked
    When a hash gives a file pre-import status, the import note now records which hash type it was
    Pulled the 'already in db but doesn't actually exist on disk' pre-import status check out of the db, fixing a long-time ugly file manager call and reducing db lock load significantly
    Updated a host of hacky file import unit tests to less hacky versions with the new status object
    All scheduled jobs now print better information about themselves in debug code

Changelog

    Misc:

    Fixed a typo bug in the latest pending upload routine when it was cancelled/errors out early
    Fixed a problem with the new subscription gap downloader, where when the page opens with the first query, it could sometimes assign 'already in db' to items in that query that were actually 'successful'. some other downloaders may have been rarely hit by this, but it was mostly the gap downloader
    The client should now support a service host that has path components (e.g. one hosted on a proxy), like myserver.com/hydrus_repo. the port will now be correctly inserted in the address before all requests. hydrus and ipfs both should work, fingers crossed
    When an admin modifies the account types, the server now only prints the 'updated account type' log record if there were actual changes

    Downloader UI:

    The confusingly named 'file import status' and 'gallery search log' in the downloader system are now renamed 'file log'/'search log'/'check log' for the file import queue, gallery downloader, and watcher respectively. the 'table' bitmap buttons are also replaced with simple easy (and easy to refer to!) label buttons.
    When you open the file/search/check logs from the downloader page list right-click menu, they now spawn properly inside regular windows, not modal dialogs (which were inhibiting interaction with the rest of the program while open)
    Relabelled the awkward 'even if url/hash recognised' checkboxes in file import options. 'do not skip if' becomes 'force download even if', and the text matches that in tag import options for page content. also improved the tooltip on these checkboxes
    All of the downloader layout boxes have also been renamed and harmonised with each other. gone are overly technical 'import queue' and 'gallery parsing'. now it is generally 'imports' up top and 'search' or 'checker' etc... below
    Layouts have also been harmonised a little. the url downloader page now has boxes for file vs search URLs, the hard drive import pause button is moved up as other pages have, and several off-by-a-pixel sizer layouts have been fixed

    Null account:

    To further improve server privacy, particularly after the PTR's multiple account switch, all repositories now forget which accounts uploaded which content after a certain age. by default it is 90 days, but you can check in review services once a server updates. this defends against a variety of hypothetical attacks where someone very clever gains access to the raw server database files, maybe years from now, and tries to crawl its anonymous account history for derivable information--now there is no history!
    It will take some time to retroactively scrub a huge server like the PTR. for the PTR, it is mostly a relative no-op of moving account ids from the old public shared account to a new 'null' account, but it'll still be about 1.2 billion rows! this happens in the background, so the server will still be useable most of the time, but it will have spikes of 'busy' for about one hour every four (i.e. one hour of mostly busy, three hours of free), probably for several days. it may be a pain to try uploading a bunch of stuff in that time, so if you have a million pending mappings, you might like to just give the PTR a break for a few days. once it has fully caught up, the anonymisation should only be 20-60 seconds of 'busy' a day
    The way the anonymisation works is all serverside services now have a single non-useable 'null account' that will take possession of all content after the delay. the original uploader is lost, and the whole historical record is merged together.
    The privacy help doc has been updated to talk about the new anonymising system. overall, I think the null account pretty much eliminates the speculative account cross-referencing worries we had, and I am happy

    Admin/janny info:

    For admins, all repositories now have an 'anonymisation period' option that you can edit in the service admin menu, defaulting to 90 days (min 1, max 360). you'll also see summary statements in the server logs as updates are anonymised. anonymisation will kick in two minutes after boot, so if you want to change this value immediately on update, get ready and be quick about it!
    For jannies who can see accounts, you will see the null account pop up in reference to older content (moreso in future when I expand janny UI and permissions). it being special is highlighted, and various account modifying UI shows it cannot be edited
    Also for jannies/admins, I had to do some wickity woo to get the null account to work without a network update for everyone. if you try to look at the null account on 445 you may get an error. normal users won't run into this, but there's a kind of 'soft' network version update for you today

Changelog

    Misc:

    Fixed drag and dropping multiple newline separated urls onto the client when those urls come from a generic text source
    Pages now cache their 'ordered' file id list. this speeds up several little jobs, but most importantly should reduce session save time for sessions with tens of thousands of files
    Common file resolutions such as 1920x1080 are now replaced in labels with '1080p' strings as already used in the duplicate system. also added 'vertical' variants of 720p, 1080p, and 4k
    When a page preview viewer gets a call to clear its current media when it is not currently the page in view, it now recognises that properly. this was happening (a 'sticky' preview) on drag and drops that navigated and terminated on other pages
    The various 'retry ignored' commands on downloaders now give an interstitial dialog where you can choose to retry 'all', '404s', or 'blacklisted' files only
    Manage tag siblings/parents now disables its import button until its data is loaded. imports that were clicked through before loading were being forgotten due to tangled logic, so for now I'll just disable the button!
    Reduced some more spiky database I/O overhead from the UI's perspective (now savepoints are performed after a result is returned, just like I recently did with transaction commit)
    Duplicate potentials search will now update the y in its x/y progress display if many files have been imported since the search was started and x becomes larger than y (due to y secretly growing)
    Fixed the default 'gelbooru md5' file lookup script. if you have a lookup script with this name, it will be updated to my new default automatically. I don't really like fixing this old system, but I am not sure when I will fit in my big rewrite that will merge it with the normal downloader system, so this is a quick fix for the meantime
    If you are one of the users who had weird unfixable 404 update file problems with the PTR, please try unpausing and doing a metadata resync one more time this week. fingers crossed, this is fixed. please let me know how you get on too, fixed or not, and also if you have had 'malformed' database problems in the past

    Multi column lists:

    Improved the precision of longer text pixel_width->text and text->pixel_width calculations, which are particularly used in the multi-column list state saving system. another multi-column size calculation bug, where lists could grow by 1 character's width on >~60 character width columns on every dialog reopen, is now fixed
    Multi-column lists should now calculate last column width more precisely and accurately regardless of vertical scrollbar presence or recent show/hide
    The snapping system that locks last column size to 5-character multiples can now snap up or down, increasing error tolerance
    I added a hack to stop the bug some people had of multi-column lists suddenly growing wide, up to screen width, in a resize loop. I think it works, but as I cannot reproduce this error, please let me know how you get on. resizing the options->external programs panel seems to initiate it reliably for those users affected

    Profile mode:

    All debug profile modes (callto, db, server, menu, pubsub, and ui) are now merged into one mode under help->debug
    This new mode no longer spams popups, and it only prints 'slow' jobs to the profile log
    It also makes a new profile log every time it is turned on, using mode start timestamp rather than client boot timestamp, and when profile mode is turned off, there is a popup summary of how many fast and slow jobs passed through during the log time
    Touched up profile code, timing thresholds, summary statements, and the help

    Special update rule this week:

    Due to the big file storage rework this week, there's some bit rot in older update routines. 447 cannot update databases older than 411, and it may have trouble updating before 436. if this applies to you, the client will error out or warn you before continuing. I'd like to know what happens to you if you are v411-435 so I can refine these messages

    Boring database refactoring:

    The primary current, deleted, pending, and petitioned files tables are now split according to service, much as I have done with mapping tables in the past. this saves a little space and accelerates many file calculations on large clients. if you have a client database script or patch that inspects 'current_files' or 'deleted_files', you'll now be looking at client_files_x etc.., where x is the service_id, and they obviously no longer have a service_id column
    A new file storage database module manages these tables, and also some misc file deletion metadata
    Refactored all raw file storage updates, filters, and searches to the new module
    The mappings and new file storage database modules are now responsible for various 'num files/mappings' metadata calculations
    Most file operations on smaller domains, typically trash or repository update files, will be significantly faster (since the much larger 'my files' table data isn't fattening the relevant indices, and worst case query planning is so much better)
    Cleaned up a ton of file domain filtering code as a result of all this
    Physical file deletion is now much faster when the client has many pending file uploads to a file repository or IPFS service
    Complicated duplicate file operations of many sorts should be a little faster now, particularly on large clients
    Searching files with 'file import time' sort should be a little faster in many situations
    Tag repositories no longer bother going down to the database level to to see if they have any thumbnails to sync with
    Everyone also gets a local file id cache regen this week, it may take a few seconds on update

Changelog

    Client api:

    /get_files/search_files now supports most system predicates! simply submit normal system predicate text in your taglist (check the expanded api help for a list of what is supported now) and they should be converted to proper system preds automatically. anything that doesn't parse will give 400 response. this is thanks to a user that submitted a system predicate parser a long time ago and which I did not catch up on until now. with this framework established, in future I will be able to add more predicate types and allow this parsing in normal autocomplete typing (issue #351)
    this is a complicated system with many possible inputs and outputs! I have tried to convert all the object types over and fill out unit tests, but there are likely some typos or bad error handling for some unusual predicates. let me know what problems you run into, and I'll fix it up!
    the old system_inbox and system_archive parameters on /get_files/search_files are now obselete. they still work, but I recommend you just use tags now. I'll deprecate them fully in future
    /get_files/search_files now disables the implicit system limit that most clients apply to all searches (by default, 10,000), so if you ask for a million files, you'll (eventually) get it
    a new call /manage_pages/add_files now allows you to add files to any media page, just like a file drag and drop
    in the /get_files/file_metadata call, the tag lists in the different 'statuses' Objects are now human-sorted
    added a link to https://github.com/floogulinc/hyextract to the client api help. this lets you extract from imported archives and reimport with tags and URLs
    the client api is now ok if you POST with a utf-8 charset content-type "application/json;charset=utf-8"
    the client api now tests the types of items within list parameters (e.g. file_ids should be a list of integers), raising an appropriate exception if they are incorrect
    client api version is now 18

    Misc:

    hydrus now supports wave (.wav) audio files! they play in mpv fine too
    simple psd files now have thumbnails! complicated ones will get a stretched version of the old default psd filetype thumbnail, much like how flash works. all your psd files are queued up for thumbnail regen on update, so they should figure themselves out in the background. this is thanks to ffmpeg, which it turns out can handle simple psds!
    vacuum returns as a manual operation. there's some new gui under database->db maintenance->review vacuum data. it talks about vacuum, shows current free space for each file, gives an estimate of how long vacuum will take, and allows you to launch vacuum on particular files
    the 'maintenance and processing' option that checks CPU usage for 'system busy' status now lets you choose how many CPU cores must exceed the % value (previously, one core exceeding the value would cause 'busy'). maybe 4 > 25% is more useful than 1 > 50% in some situations?
    removed the warning when updating from v411-v436. user reports and more study suggest this range was most likely ok in the end!
    double-clicking the autocomplete tag list, or the current/pending/etc.. buttons, should now restore keyboard focus back to the text input afterwards, in float mode or not
    the thumbnail 'remote services' menu, if you have file repositories or ipfs services, now appears on the top level, just below 'manage'
    the file maintenance menu is shuffled up the 'database' menubar menu
    fixed mr bones! I knew I was going to make a file status typo in 447, and he got it
    in the downloader system, if a download object has any hashes, it now no longer consults urls for pre-import predictions. this saves a little time looking up urls and ensures that the logically stronger hashes take precedence over urls in all cases (previously, they only took precedence when a non-'looks new' status was found)
    fixed an ugly bug in manage tag siblings/parents where tags imported from clipboard or .txt were not being cleaned, so all sorts of garbage with capital letters or leading spaces could be entered. all pairs are now cleaned, and anything invalid skipped over
    the manage tag filter dialog now cleans all imported tag rules when using the 'import' button (issue #768)
    the manage tag filter dialog now allows you to export the current tag filter with the export button
    fixed the 'edit json parse rule' dialog layout so if you transition from a short display to a string match that has complicated controls, it should now expand properly to show them all
    I think I fixed an odd bug where when uploading pending mappings while more mappings were being added, the x/y progress could accurately but unhelpfully continually reset to 0/y, with an ever-decreasing y until it was equal to the value it had at start. y should now always grow
    hydrus servers now put their server header on a second header 'Hydrus-Server', which should allow them to be properly detectable through a proxy that overrides 'Server'
    optimised a critical call in the tag mappings update database routine. for a service with many siblings and parents, I estimate repository processing is 2-7% faster
    optimised the 'add/delete file' database routines in multiple ways, particularly when the file(s) have many deleted tags, and for the local file services, and when the client has multiple tag services
    brushed up a couple of system predicate texts--things like num_pixels to 'number of pixels'

    Boring database refactoring:

    repository update file tracking and service id normalisation is now pulled out to a new 'repositories' database module
    file maintenance tracking and database-level file info updates is now pulled out to a new 'files maintenance' database module
    analyse and vacuum tracking and information generation is now pulled out to a new 'db maintenance' database module
    moved more commands to the 'similar files' module
    the 'metadata regeneration' file maintenance job is now a little faster to save back to the database
    cleared out some defunct/bad database code related to these two modules
    misc code cleanup, particularly around the stuff I optimised this week

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

Titel: Hydrus Network 449 Experimental
Beitrag von: SiLæncer am 05 August, 2021, 18:40
Changelog

this is an experimental release! please do not use this unless you are an advanced user who has a good backup, syncs with a repository (e.g. the PTR), and would like to help me out. if this is you, I don't need you to do anything too special, just please use the client and repo as normal, downloading and uploading, and let me know if anything messes up during normal operation

repository processing split

    tl;dr: nothing has changed, you don't have to do anything. with luck, your PTR service is going to fix some bad siblings and parents over the next couple of days
    repositories now track what they have processed on a per-content basis. this gives some extra maintenance tools to, for instance, quickly reset and reprocess your ~150k tag siblings on the PTR without having to clear and reprocess all 1.3 billion mappings too
    in review services, you now see definition updates and all a repository's content types processing progress independently (just files for a file repo, but mappings, siblings, and parents for a tag repo). most of the time they will all be the same, but each can be paused separately. it is now possible (though not yet super efficient, since definitions still run 100%) to sync with the PTR and only grab siblings and parents by simply pausing mappings in review services
    I have also split the 'network' and 'processing' sync progress gauges and their buttons into separate boxes for clarity
    the 'fill in content gaps' maintenance job now lets you choose which content types to do it for
    also, a new 'reset content' maintenance job lets you choose to delete and reprocess by content type. the nuclear 'complete' reset is now really just for critical situations where definitions or database tables are irrevocably messed up
    all users have their siblings and parents processing reset this week. next time you have update processing, they'll come back in over about fifteen minutes, and with luck we'll wipe out some years-old legacy bugs and hopefully discover some info about the remaining bugs. most importantly, we can re-trigger this reprocess in just a few seconds to quickly test future fixes
    a variety of tests such as 'service is mostly caught up' are now careful just to test for the currently unpaused content types
    if you try to commit some content that is currently processing-paused, the client now says 'hey, sorry this is paused, I won't upload that stuff right now' but still upload everything else that isn't paused. this is a ' service is caught up' issue
    tag display sync, which does background work to make sure siblings and parents appear as they should, will now not run for a service if any of the services it relies on for siblings or parents is not process synced. when this happens, it is also shown on the tag display sync review panel. this stops big changes like the new sibling/parent reset from causing display sync to do a whole bunch of work before the service is ready and happy with what it has. with luck it will also smooth out new users' first PTR sync too
    clients now process the sub-updates of a repository update step in the order they were generated on the server, which may fix some non-determinant update bugs we are trying to pin down
    all update processing tracking is overhauled. all related code and database access techniques have been brushed up and should use less CPU and fail more gracefully

Changelog

    Misc:

    When exporting files from the file export window, a cancellable popup job with progress updates is also created. if you close the window, you can still cancel the job from the popup
    Fixed a crash bug in file export window
    System:num file relationships (duplicates) now correctly only returns files in the current file search domain (previously, it returned all files, including those previously deleted etc...)
    I rearranged some of the thumbnail menu file relationships actions menu. I'm not really happy with this, but a shuffle is easier than a full rework
    Fixed the '4k' resolution label replacer, which was looking at 2060 height not 2160 by mistake
    The phash generation routine (part of the duplicates system, happens on image imports) now uses less memory and CPU for images with an alpha channel (pngs and still gifs), and if those images are taller or wider than 1:30 or 30:1, the phashes are also better quality
    The 'fill in subscription gap' popup button now correctly boots its created downloader when the action also opens a new downloader page. previously, due to overactive safety code, it would hang on 'pending' until a client restart. related similar 'start downloader after creating page' actions off drag and drop or client api should also be more reliable
    Repositories (also the various improvements in 449-experimental are folded in)
    Fixed an issue with some 'force repository account refresh' code not kicking in immediately
    when a client sees repository update period change, it now recalculates the metadata next check time
    fixed a bug with the new repo sync where updates just added from additive sync were not being processed until client restart. related long-term buggy 'do we have this hash in updates?' and 'how many updates are there?' tests for update metadata are also fixed
    the experimental by-content-type repository reset from last week now leaves pending content in place
    the reset also now clears cached service info counts for files, tags, and mappings

    Client api:

    The /get_files/search_files command now takes six new parameters for file/tag domain selection and file sort type and order
    I wrote out some simple help and added some hacky unit tests for these new parameters. it needs another pass for potential bug fixes and readability/specificity (e.g. what does 'asc' for 'sort by ratio' mean?), but let me know how you get on anyway
    Fixed the new system predicate parsing for system:hash with only one hash
    Improved the url system predicate examples in client api documentation
    Client api version is now 19

    Mr bones:

    Mr bones now reports the correct numbers for your 'my files' again (and will continue to do so as multiple local file services are added)
    Mr bones now reports total files deleted and their total size
    Mr bones now reports your earliest recorded file import time
    Mr bones now has separate tabs for different stats types. this neatly ditches the giant stack of numbers this was becoming, but I may revisit it. some people who take mr bones screens will prefer all the info in one easy shot, while I others I know would rather the 'viewing habits' stuff were not immediately there. maybe expanding boxes?
    Fixed some mr bones layout

    Boring code cleanup:

    Made a new base class for the different database modules to hold cursor and collect common administrative functions
    All database queries (about 1,200 of them) now go through a single location in the new class
    A new profile mode, 'query planner' mode, now prints query text and EXPLAIN QUERY PLAN lines to a new profile log. this is a new experimental thing, extremely spammy, but will help with diagnosing very unusually slow queries on individual clients (it'll most likely show up odd sqlite versions, weird data distributions, or un-analysed tables)
    Updated a core function in 'all known files' mappings change autocomplete count adjustment. this seemed to have extremely bad worst case time, and I think it might have been giving some bad counts in unusual situations

Titel: Kaseto 2.2
Beitrag von: SiLæncer am 16 August, 2021, 11:30
(https://s26.postimg.cc/ujsd9ni2x/screenshot_1053.png)
Kaseto is a fairly straightforward program that provides you with a quick and easy way to play and organize your music collection. It is still under development, so it only offers a limited number of features at present, but it looks quite promising.

Freeware

Changelog

The new version 2.2 comes with several new features and bug fixes. Now, Kaseto can resume playback exactly where it ended last time when exiting the application. This works not only when Kaseto is restarted regularly, but even when Windows has crashed during playback. By default, Kaseto only resumes playback of audiobooks at startup, but not for music. However, this can be changed in the settings. There are three options available: always start with an empty playback (as in previous Kaseto versions), resume only audiobooks at startup, or resume both audiobooks and music at startup.
    In the new version, Kaseto can seamlessly switch between speakers and Bluetooth headphones during playback. For example, if the music is currently playing on the speakers and then Bluetooth headphones are connected, Kaseto will automatically switch the music playback to the headphones. In previous versions, it was necessary to restart Kaseto. This is no longer necessary with Kaseto 2.2.
    Furthermore, there are many new discreet mouse hover effects, so that it is immediately recognizable which elements in Kaseto are clickable and which are not. In addition, it is possible now to drag and drop audio files into other applications, for example, to play the audio files there.
    In the new version of Kaseto, two bugs have also been fixed: When changing the volume in Kaseto itself, the adjusted volume was correctly visually displayed after restarting Kaseto 2.1 or prior, but was not reflected by the audio playback itself. Now, volume changes are correctly applied and saved, even after restarting Kaseto. In addition, selecting multiple albums or songs while holding the Shift key now works correctly and exactly as expected for a Windows application.

The Unlicense

Changelog

    stupid anti-virus thing:

    we have had several more anti-virus false positives just recently. we discovered that at least one testbed used by these companies was testing the 'open html help' checkbox in the installer, which then launched Edge on the testbed, and then launched the Windows Update process for Edge and Skype, which was somehow interacting with UAC and thus considered suspicious activity owned by the hydrus installer process, lmao. thereafter, it seems the installer exe's DNS requests were somehow being cross-connected with the client.exe scan as that was identified as connected with the installer. taking that checkbox out as a test produced a much cleaner scan. there is a limit to how much of this nonsense I will accomodate, but this week we are trying a release without that 'open help' link in the installer, let's see how it goes
    semi-related, I brushed up the install path message in the installer and clarified help->help will open the help in the first-start welcome popup message

    misc:

    I fixed a critical bug in tag sibling storage when a 'bad' tag's mapping is removed (e.g. 'delete A->B') and added ('add A->C') in the same transaction, and in a heap of fun other situations besides, that mostly resulted in the newly added sibling being forgotten. the bug was worse when this was on a local tag service via the manage siblings dialog. this problem is likely the cause of some of our weird sibling issues on clients that processed certain repository updates extremely quickly. I will keep investigating here for more issues and trigger another sibling reset for everyone in the future
    the 'show some random pairs' button on the duplicates page is nicer--the 'did not find any pairs' notification is a popup rather than an annoying error dialog, and when there is nothing found, it also clears the page of thumbs. it also tries to guess if you are at the end of the current search, and if so, it will not do an auto re-fetch and will clear the page without producing the popup message
    fixed a bug that meant file order was not being saved correctly in sessions! sorry for the trouble!
    import of videos is now a little faster as the ffmpeg call to check resolution and duration is now retained to check for presence of an audio channel
    when files are imported, the status messages are now much more granular. large and CPU-heavy files should move noticeably from hash generation to filetype calculation to metadata to actual file copying
    fixed a database query bug in the new processing progress tracking code that was affecting some (perhaps older) versions of sqlite
    when you trash/untrash/etc... a file in the media viewer, the top hover text now updates to show the file location change
    fixed a typo bug in the new content type tracking that broke ipfs pinning yet again, sorry for the trouble! (issue #955)
    I fleshed out my database pending and num_pending tests significantly. now all uploadable content types are tested, so ipfs should not break at the db level again
    the page tab menu now clumps the 'close x pages' into a dynamic submenu when there are several options and excludes duplicates (e.g. 'close others' and 'close to the left' when you right-click the rightmost page)
    the page tab menu also puts the 'move' actions under a submenu
    the page tab menu now has 'select' submenu for navigating home/left/right/end like the shortcuts
    fixed some repository content type checking problems: showing petition pages when the user has moderation privileges on a repository, permission check when fetching number of petitions, and permissions check when uploading files
    fixed a typo in the 'running in wine' html that made the whole document big and bold
    across the program, a 'year' for most date calculations like 'system:time imported: more than a year ago' is now 365 days (up from 12 x 30-day months). these will likely be calendar calculated correctly in future, but for now we'll just stick with simple but just a bit more accurate
    fixed a bug in mpv loop-seek when the system lags for a moment just when the user closes the media viewer and the video loops back to start

    client api:

    expanded my testing system to handle more 'read' database parameter testing, and added some unit tests for the new client api file search code
    fixed the 'file_sort_asc' in the new client api file search call. it was a stupid untested typo, thank you for the reports (issue #959)
    fixed 'file_service_name' and 'tag_service_name' when they are GET parameters in the client api
    I fleshed out the file search sort help to say what ascending/descending means for each file sort type

    boring database cleanup:

    to cut down on redundant spam, the new query planner profile mode only plans each unique query text once per run of the mode
    also fixed an issue in the query planner with multiple-row queries with an empty list argument
    refactored the tag sibling and parent database storage and lookup code out to separate db modules
    untangled and optimised a couple of sibling/parent lookup chain regeneration calls
    moved more sibling and parent responsibility to the new modules, clearing some inline hardcoding out of the main class
    cleaned up a bunch of sibling, parent, and display code generally, and improved communication between these modules, particularly in regards to update interactions and display sync
    the similar files data tables are migrated to more appropriate locations. previously, they were all in client.caches.db, now the phash definition and file mapping tables are in master, and the similar files search record is now in main

Changelog

    Misc:

    My 'simple' shortcut commands can now store additional variables. to start things off, I have finally added 'seek video' shortcut commands that have back/forwards and second+millisecond values. these should work on the native video viewer and mpv, audio and video. existing users will have to add their own (do it to the 'media viewers - all' set), but new users will get ctrl+left/right for 2.5s back and 5s forwards as the new defaults. let me know if you have any trouble!
    The maximum number tracked by 'tag as number' system predicate is expanded from -99999999->99999999 to -2^63 -> 2^63 - 1. tag caches will be regenerated on update to store these, it will take a few minutes. the input ui for the system predicate is temporarily limited to -/+2^31, but I'll expand it
    Subscriptions now have a checkbox for 'do not worry about subscription gaps'. if you have a subscription that gets files randomly, or gets an intentionally small sample, this will disable the 'hey, there was a gap, click here to fill it in' popup messages
    You can now set negative values for the duplicate score weights in options->duplicates
    Also added a weight for the 'nice ratio' duplicate comparison
    Vastly improved the cancel speed for searches in the realm of 'get the files that have any xxx tag', be that all tags or a namespace wildcard, and also some important search setup for various 'all known files' search pages. if you have ever tried to search the PTR raw and run into a three minute uncancellable initial setup lag, it should be gone now!
    When you right-click on files in a specific local file domain (e.g. trash or my files), the 'view this file's dupes' number check is now run on 'all local files' as well, and if the numbers differ, a second menu is shown for all local files. this should make it easier to chase dupes of trashed files that are still untrashed while also allowing a trash-only search
    Fixed a critical bug in repository mapping processing that was not adding mappings to certain caches for files imported before the repo was added, and/or the new repository 'per content type' processing reset. this mostly manifested as these files not showing up in search results despite the tag being there. there is more work to do here, so it is top priority next week, and likely some maintenance to regen the bad caches

    Boring rewrites for multiple local file services:

    Many users have asked for the ability, when multiple local file domains are available, to search multiple file domains at once. I spent time this week doing background work to support this, and a related concept of searching 'deleted' files, which is a current gap in the program and not always covered by 'all known files'. nothing significant changes, but almost all the file search code now works on n file domains rather than 1, but for now n=1 lmao
    Made a new 'database search context' object to handle a virtualised but still simple and fast file 'location view' at the database level
    The primary file search call is converted to use this object. references to a single file service are replaced with the view or its components
    All duplicate file search code is moved to the new location search context
    Searching by 'system:import time' now works over multiple domains, although it is a little muddled. in future, import time predicate will have an optional specific file service and do 'import time' vs 'deleted time'
    'system:local' and 'system:not local' is adapted so it can still work fast with multiple file domains, sped up worst case 'local' time, and a new optimisation lets it run fast for 'deleted from local files' too
    Sorting search files by import time is now only supported if the search domain is just one domain

Changelog

    Qol and misc:

    The network job status labels around waiting for 'subscription'/'download page'/'watcher' forced wait slots are reworded. now they just say a more plain 'waiting to work' with a time estimate, and if a job does not get a chance to work this check cycle, it says 'a different xxx got the chance to work' for a few seconds.
    If a network job does not get bandwidth on a check cycle, it now says 'a different network job got the bandwidth' for a few seconds
    When waiting on bandwidth or gallery work, network jobs should count down more smoothly, one second at a time, not skip a second so often
    Network job widgets are now better about updating the layout of their two text labels. the status text on the left should take all the available pixels much better, sharing with the '64KB/s' speed text as it changes width and disappear
    Added a new user-made darkmode QSS stylesheet called 'OledBlack' to default hydrus, try it out under options->style
    If the tag domain in a search page is other than 'all known tags', the 'selection tags' box, which limits itself to the current domain's tags, now explicitly labels itself with that domain
    Consolidated and optimised the pre-work checks on all importers/downloaders in pages. pages with idling/finished/paused downloaders will consume just a little less CPU and need to talk to fewer important objects
    Renamed the shortcut sets for viewer/preview media windows and clarified that they are mouse only for now. the new seek command works with these, but you'd have to map ctrl+right-click or something
    Improved the system predicate unit tests to catch datatype problems like with last week's hotfix and system:time imported
    Advanced archive/delete stuff: wrote up a neat idea I had about using local parents applied to the PTR to make fast multi-tag processing workflows here: https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/help/advanced_parents.html#parent_favourites

    Bug fixes:

    An important tag search bug is fixed. for some users, files that were imported before a service was added were not appearing in some of that service's search results, or their tag counts were not added in certain tag autocomplete results. this file miscount is fixed, and holes will be filled on database update. it should not take too long to fix, although different users will have different situations
    This bug was leading to artificially fast PTR processing speeds on some clients as their older files were being skipped. if you have used the client for a long time but only added the PTR recently, sorry if you notice it slow down! it is now working correct!
    Fixed an important bug in the image rendering system that was causing tile artifacts (little lines of double-pixel jank along tile borders) at a variety of regular zoom levels. the way ideal tile size was being calculated was often incorrect, so I have replaced it with a better calculation
    The system predicate parser can now parse 'system:is not the best quality file of its duplicate group' (only 'isn't' was working, previously) (issue #954)
    If the collect-by dropdown is fed garbage namespace data from the namespace sort options, it now recovers with a nicer error message (issue #904)
    Misc db code cleanup and minor refactoring

    Client api:

    OR predicates are now supported in the client api! Just nest within the tag list, and it'll bundle the nested list into an OR. there's an example in the client api help
    Some permissions testing in file search is tightened up--now we have OR and system predicates, if you do not submit any regular positive tags, the search permissions have to be 'allow anything'
    Fixed an issue where the client api would let you ask about sha256 hashes of incorrect length (and would ultimately make a master database id for these borked hashes, even the empty string!!). now the client api throws a 400
    Fixed a bug in /manage_pages/get_pages where all pages were marked as 'selected'=true (issue #841)
    In the client api, if you use missing file_id(s) on a request for a file, thumbnail, metadata about a file, or when trying to add a files to a page, it now gives 404 correctly (rather than 500) (issue #961)
    Added a section to the client api help on variable encoding, including an example of how to convert a python tag list to JSON+URL encoded string
    Added new unit tests for OR pred parsing and the hash length check
    Client api version is now 20

Changelog

    misc:

    when a downloader page fetch gives a 500 Server Error, it is now handled better, status numbers are updated to 'failed' quickly, and I believe the post-500 downloader deadlock issue (downloaders staying as 'pending', not 'working', after several of these 500s) should also be fixed (issue #898 maybe, but many other reports also)
    when finishing a very large archive/delete filter, the UI should not hang so much to commit the changes. the changes may be delayed a second or more, if your client is currently chugging, so if you are a user who hits F5 real quick after committing archive/delete, let me know how you get on. I've tried to mitigate for your situation, but it may not be perfect.(issue #845)
    the Edit URL Class dialog will now refuse to OK if the API Converter fails.
    the Edit URL Class dialog will now put up an 'are you sure?' messagebox if the URL Class matches its own example API URL
    fixed some gallery error handling when a gallery cannot be parsed
    improved 'cannot parse' error reporting text to include more information
    the client api /manage_pages/add_files command should now always preserve the sort of both the file_ids or hashes parameter
    fixed an instance where image bitmaps were being handled incorrectly (issue #876)
    the client will no longer report shutdown work due for a repository when the work is on a currently paused content type
    fixed some logic related to the advanced tag option of 'fetch page even if url recognised and already in db'
    improved the error message when an unlucky duplicate boot causes a locked database error
    I rearranged and clarified a couple of links in the 'advanced' area of the help index page
    added some help texts and tooltips to the edit checker options dialog and fixed some borked layout
    did a quick hack to fix some db repair code that wasn't dealing with some missing module information. I will brush the repair code up in the near future so that modules can repair themselves

    some text colour stuff:

    the green/red/blue duplicate comparison statements on the duplicate filter's right-hand hover window are now coloured by QSS. a new 'HydrusIndeterminate' object name handles the blue.
    the green/red background in the advanced OR input is now governed by HydrusValid and HydrusInvalid
    the various 'help for this panel' blue texts are also now HydrusIndeterminate
    I have added dark or light HydrusIndeterminate and more Valid/Invalid class definitions to all the default qss styles. they may need some updates, so if you wrote any of these QSS files, please fiddle with them and send me any updates to roll in!
    added a new user created QSS style called 'Dark Blue', thank you for the submission!
    all text colours are now dynamically set, either QSS or through (tag colour) options! there are no more hardcoded text colours!

    media viewer's image tile renderer:

    a new option in 'speed and memory' allows you to change the typical square dimensions of tiles in the tile renderer. default is 768 pixels. you can go bigger to improve accuracy, but it'll cost a little memory and CPU inefficiency
    the new 'nice' tile size calculator now tests more potential tile sizes, improving precision and reducing stretch-warping along tile borders for unusual zooms
    the new nice size calculator is now also used when figuring out tile padding, making padding widths that do not cause stretch-warps
    there remain slight stretch-warps in some bottom-most and right-most tiles
    a new canvas tile debug report mode now draws blue lines on tile edges in the media viewer and spams some tile number info to popups
    improved tile coordinate safety checks for extremely small images (e.g. 1x1) when blown up to ridiculous zooms so there are more than one tile per pixel
    this took a bunch of work, and I am happy that I figured out some solutions, but I believe it may be impossible to get perfect answers here. please try out this new version and let me know how it goes, particularly in the duplicate viewer where warping is obvious. I think ultimately I may replace this with a single tile system that goes over the borders of your screen, eliminating the stitching problems entirely, although this will eat more memory and CPU

The Unlicense

Changelog

    Misc:

    Many of the simple system predicates (width, size, duration, etc..) now support the '≠' (not equal) operator! searches only support one of these at once for now (e.g. you can't say height != 640 AND height != 1080--it'll pick one of these pseudorandomly)
    The watcher page list right-click menu now has 'copy subjects', which copies the selected watchers' 'subject' texts to clipboard
    The advanced file deletion panel now remembers which reason you last used. it remembers if you selected the 'default' value up top versus specific reason text, and if you enter custom text, it remembers that for next time too
    The network job widget now shows the current URL as tooltip over the progress gauge, and under the cog menu, where clicking it copies it to clipboard
    The various menu labels across the program should now show ampersand (&) correctly (e.g. in URLs)
    The way byte sizes (like 21.7KB or 1.24GB) above 1KB are rendered to strings has been overhauled. they now generally show three significant figures. a new EXPERIMENTAL option in 'gui' options panel lets you change this, but only 2 or 3 are really helpful
    If a repository clears the message on your account, you no longer get a popup telling you 'hey, new message from server x: ...'
    The new ≠ system preds should be parseable (but be careful, likely buggy) using the client api's new system predicate parser, with '≠', '!=', 'is not', or 'isn't'
    Cleaned up some old data presentation methods and improved how client specific options are patched in to base hydrus string conversion code

    Ui freezes:

    Session pages can now detect if they have had no saveable changes since a certain time. they use this ability to skip redundant session save CPU time for pages with no changes since the last session save
    For now, since the smallest atom of the session system is a whole page, gallery and watcher pages can only save time if every downloader in the page has had no changes, so in their case this optimisation mostly only applies to completely finished/paused pages. it is still better to have several medium size downloader pages than one gigantic one
    A new database maintenance task ensures that optimisation cannot accidentally lose a page (from something like an unfortunate timing of a session save after many manual session deletes)
    The existing optimisation that skips 'last session' save on no changes now initialises its data as the 'last session' is first loaded (rather than on first save), meaning that if there are no changes while the client is open, no new 'last session's will be saved at all
    Misc session save code cleanup

    Database repair, mostly boring:

    A client can now boot with client.caches.db missing and will rebuild that file. almost all of its tables are now able to automatically repopulate (issue #975)
    All the new modules I have been working on are now responsible for their own repair. this includes missing indices, missing tables, and table repopulation where possible. modules now know which of their tables are critical to a boot, what version each table and index was added, and now manage both initial and later-created service tables and indices
    Essentially, all newer database repair code is now modularised rather than hardcoded. the repair and creation code actually now share the same table and index definitions. the code is more reliable, checkpoints its good work in case of later failure, and will be much easier to maintain and expand in future
    Lots of module repair and initialisation code is refactored and generally given a full pass
    The core mappings cache regeneration routine now takes transaction checkpoints throughout its job to save progress and reduce journal size
    Master definition critical error detection code is no longer hardcoded!
    Mapping storage repair code is no longer hardcoded!
    Similar files repair code is no longer hardcoded!
    Parent or sibling cache repair repopulation is no longer hardcoded!
    The local hashes cache module can now repopulate itself during repair
    The notes fast search table can now repopulate itself during repair
    The similar files search tree table can now rebuild itself during repair

Changelog

    Misc:

    The client no longer regularly commits a full garbage collection during memory maintenance. this debug-tier operation can take up to 15s on very large clients, resulting in awful lag. various instances of forcing it after big operations complete (e.g. to encourage post-subscription memory cleanup), are now replaced with regular pauses to allow python to clean itself more granularly. this may result in temporary memory bloat for some very subscription-heavy clients, so feedback would be appreciated
    Right-clicking on a single url import item in a 'file log' now shows you all the known hashes, parsed urls, and parsed tags for that item. I hope this will help debug some weird problems!
    All multi-column lists across the program now convert an enter/return key press into an 'activate' command, as if you had double-clicked. this should make it easier to, for instance, highlight a downloader or shift/ctrl select a bunch of sibling rows and mass-delete (issue #933)
    The subscription gap filler button now propagates file import options and tag import options from the subscription to the downloader it creates (issue #910)
    A new 'mpv report mode' now prints a huge amount of mpv debug information to the hydrus log when activated
    Improved how mpv prints log messages to the hydrus log, including immediate log flushing
    Fixed a bug that meant the hydrus server was not saving custom update period or anonymisation period for next boot. thank you for the reports, and sorry for the trouble! (issue #976)
    Cleaned up some database savepoint handling after a serious transaction error occurs
    The client api now ignores any parameter with a value of null, as if it were not there, rather than moaning about invalid datatypes (issue #922)

    Url classes:

    The edit url class dialog is now broken into two notebook pages--'match rules', which strictly covers how to recognise a url, and 'options', which handles url storage, conversion, and normalisation
    Url classes can now support single-value parameters (a parameter with just a value, not a key/value pair). if turned on, then at least one single-value parameter is required to match the url, and multiple are permitted. a checkbox in the dialog turns this on and a string match lets you determine if the url class matches the received single value params
    Added unit tests to test the new single-value parameter matching
    Fixed an issue where StringMatch buttons were not emitting their valueChanged signal, guess how I discovered that bug this week
    Fixed the insertion of default parameter values when the URL Class has non-alphabetised params
    Refactored and cleaned up some related parsing and string convertion code into new ClientString module

Changelog

    smoother menubar updates:

    improved the way the menubar menus update. rather than generating a whole new (e.g. 'pages') menu and replacing the existing out of date one, now there is a static menu skeleton that has subsections or labels updated in place. this means fewer objects changing, less flicker/jank, and should allow you to upload pending even if you have, say, a bunch of subscriptions running

    misc:

    thanks to a user's help, the filetype parser now detects pngs (this mostly happens during import) much faster! the problem previously was determining if a png is actually an apng--figuring out if they are truly apngs is now done with very fast file header scanning, rather than the previous method that booted ffmpeg. this brings filetype parse time for pngs down from 50-150ms to 1-2ms
    getting apng metadata is also now faster. num_frames is now pulled from the file header, it no longer has to be manually counted by ffmpeg
    clicking the session weight item in the 'pages' menu now gives you more detailed info on your session weight, including on currently closed pages in the undo list
    stripped out a lot of ancient wx-era safety code that stops the client from doing certain UI work while it is minimised or minimised to tray. also brushed up some ugly update routines for menus refresh and modal message presentation that could lead to a pile-up of updates as soon as the client was unminimised, causing lag or freezes. with luck, the client should be better about restoring itself from minimised to system tray. if you minimise to tray, feedback on how this works out for you would be appreciated
    when a network job stalls with the 'this domain had some errors recently' message, the cog menu on the widget now allows you to 'scrub domain errors' and try again immediately
    if your search has system:limit, then any tag search you type in the autocomplete will now search the database, not your thumbnails. previously, the hack to enable this behaviour was to flip 'searching immediately' off. let's see if this new behaviour is ultimately confusing/annoying, I am mixed on it and think this subtle search option needs more thought and UI to make it more obvious and user friendly

    if you have autocomplete tag search typed, and results from thumbnails displayed, and you flip 'searching immediately' off, the search will now automatically update and give you full database numbers immediately
    help:

    I moved 'searching with wildcards' from the advanced help to the 'more getting started with files' help here: https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/help/getting_started_more_files.html
    I also wrote a more detailed description of what the autocomplete dropdown buttons do in that page
    I also wrote a brief description of how a system:limit query will try to clip according to the current file sort, getting the n 'biggest files' and so on

    boring code cleanup:

    cleaned some network job widget update calls
    improved some misc autocomplete search status tracking
    improved some account object permission checking and tests. accounts now never say they have permissions (e.g. if you click the 'see account permissions' button on review services) if they are banned or expired

Changelog

    Quality of life:

    Under options->files and trash, you can now govern whether the advanced file deletion dialog remembers action and reason. being able to save action (trash, physical delete, vs physical delete and clear history) is new, default off for now, and won't always save (if you are currently set to trash, but the next dialog doesn't have trash as an option, then it won't overwrite to physical delete). if you try it out, let me know how you like it
    A new option under 'network->pause' now lets you always boot the client with paused network traffic
    The main file import object now stores primary urls (such as post and file url) separately from source url (which is produced by many parsers and typically refers to another website). a new checkbox in 'file import options' (when in advanced mode) now allows you to not associate primary urls separately to source urls (which is useful in some one-time technical jobs that talk to some unusual proxy etc...)
    The new import object right-click menu that shows urls now separates primary and source urls, and also shows any referral url
    When you flip between two images in the dupe filter, the zoom preservation calculation, which previously only locked to the same width, now tries to choose width or height based on the relative ratios of the two images to keep both images completely in view on a canvas zoom start. it should ensure that lower watermark banners stay in view and don't accidentally spill over the bottom of your monitor
    Moved popup toaster options from 'gui' options page to the new 'popup' page
    Added options for whether the popup toaster should update while the client is minimised and while the mouse is on a different monitor than the main gui window. these options now default to false, so if you have any trouble, please try turning them back on
    A new shortcut action in the 'global' set now flips profile mode on and off. please note for now 'global' only works on main gui and media viewer--I will add a hook to every window in the future!

    Bug fixes:

    You now cannot start an 'upload pending' job for a service more than once at a time. the menu is now disabled for each service while uploading is happening
    Fixed a bug in media load where if the file was not in a specific domain (i.e. somewhere in all known files), its tags would not show implied parents. for non-specific files, this calculation happens on the fly, and previously it was only doing siblings
    Fixed a bug from the somewhat recent file deletion update that meant many files' custom deletion reasons were being overwritten to 'No reason given' when trash was clearing. I am sorry for the inconvenience!
    Fixed an issue with parsing 'string' from html 'script' tags (and perhaps some other 'meta' tag types) on recent versions of the built hydrus release. this should fix the newgrounds gallery parser
    Fixed some gallery parsing error handling, for when the actually fetched url differs from the original and cannot be parsed, and when the actually fetched url redirects straight to a file page from a 1-length search result

    Update file handling bug fixes:

    When repository processing runs into an update file problem, it now specifies if the file was content or definitions type
    When the database gathers updates to process, it discriminates between definitions and content updates more carefully
    When a hydrus update file goes through file maintenance and changes filetype, the repository update progress tracker now 'reregisters' that file, updating what content types it can expect from it and clearing out incorrect data
    During normal update file registration, incorrect old data is now cleared out

    Boring cleanup:

    Cleaned some of the positioning code that places icons and text on thumbnails, removing hardcoded numbers and letting custom icons position better
    Cleaned some import url tracking, checking, and association code
    Refactored profile mode and query planner mode switching up out of UI code into the controller
    Added a hefty unit test to test that siblings and parents are transitively applied to mappings correctly for files outside and inside specific file services, and for tag sync and the normal tag pipeline
    Refactored some database file maintenance code to decouple the queue from the worker

Beitrag von: SiLæncer am 28 Oktober, 2021, 18:40
Changelog

This is a fix of the original 459, which had a build problem!



Hydrus Network 459

    Main highlights:

    To help debugging from screenshots etc..., the client now puts its version name on every window title, like 'review services - hydrus client 459'. (issue #447)
    The 'main gui title' option is reset and replaced with 'application display name' this week. it now alters the 'hydrus client' part on every window title. the actual 'main gui title' is now "main" lmao
    Wrote a new help document, 'help my media files are broke' in the db directory. this collects the different recovery routines I have developed while helping users after drive failure or other problems cause many missing files or a desynced database and file storage structure. I will be pointing people to this in future, please feel free to do the same
    Two new file maintenance jobs are added: for 'presence' and 'integrity' checks, you can now do 'if has URL, then try to redownload, else remove record'. this tidily combines the two more specific jobs that are commonly run after a hard drive problem. the 'presence' version is now the default selected job and recommended for most simple situations
    A new easy-select button on the review file maintenance panel lets you select all media files
    I put some more time into the new duplicate filter zoom locking calculation. thank you to users who sent in examples of my code not working well--I have scaled back what it tried to do. now it will tend to heigh-lock for landscape images and width-lock for everything else unless you are currently viewing the default zoom and that roughly fills the canvas on a dimension and doing the default lock would cause the next image to spill over the screen. the 'solution' here hence targets the 'watermark spilled over' problem more specifically and deals with all combinations of landscape/portrait A/B/canvas better. I'd still like to introduce some zoom locking options here for regular browsing, but pinning down what exactly is useful is trickier than I expected
    The edit tag import options panel now shows 'THIS CURRENTLY GETS NO TAGS' warning red text if it is non default and no tags are set to parse and there are no additional tags
    The status bar now shows '1,234 files in 20 collections' when you have just collections or just collections selected (previously, it wrongly said '1,234 collections') (issue #807)
    MacOS clients will now show dialog-created menus in a debug dialog unless the new BUGFIX checkbox under 'gui' options page is unchecked. this should help Big Sur users who are unable to interact with menus created in dialogs like manage tags or manage services. I threw this together, so let me know how this works for you! (issue #986, issue #858)
    The program now waits specifically for currently running subscriptions to stop work and save themselves before moving on with further shutdown tasks. hand in hand with this, subscriptions are now faster at stopping work on client exit, even when they have no popup message (through which some hackery dackery shutdown signals are sent otherwise) (issue #790)
    Physically deleting thousands of files in one go should no longer lock up the file manager and other systems for ages--physical delete is now serialised and processed on a new threaded mainloop, so it doesn't matter how fast the requests come it, it will chunter at a polite speed and take breaks and should not choke other consumers and freeze up other 'things are great, you can start new work' status checks

    Network job improvements:

    Hydrus network jobs now try to resume incomplete responses (previously they just dumped out and tried again from the beginning). if a server provides less content than it said it would, or it explicitly gives us a partial response, we now resume at that point! should fix dowmnloading of longer videos on 8chan.moe
    Hydrus network jobs now send a range header by default, letting servers return 206 (partial content) if they wish
    SSL errors (cert verification and similar) are now caught in the network engine separately to generic connection errors. they will not be reattempted, and the failure note will display specific error info
    Refactored some response header parsing code, cleaning up how some variables are initialised
    Greatly improved the job reattempt system, resetting variables more neatly
    Improved some response range and content length calculations

    Smaller items, mostly bug fixes:

    Fixed a recent typo bug that caused the edit url class dialog to always spawn with 'file url' type set. sorry, this was stupid! (issue #982)
    The edit url class dialog now sends the 'normalised' url as the example text for the api and referral string converter edit panels
    Fixed the new advanced file deletion 'remember last' checkboxes in options->files and trash. they weren't hooked up right, sorry!
    Fixed the tag menu's siblings submenu's copy command where it says 'ideal is "xxx" on: yyy'. despite the correct label, this was sometimes copying a different service's ideal (issue #855)
    Fixed the 'media zooms' text input under options->media not turning off the 'red' invalid mode once its text is again valid
    When you cancel the 'edit parser' dialog, it shouldn't say 'it looks like you made changes' so much when you didn't make any. the 'has changes' test now ignores some background test data updates that may have happened (issue #875)
    If a JSON parsing formula is given HTML, the 'cannot parse' error now tries to detect this and present a better error text (issue #888)
    I think I fixed a problem in the new bytes rendering calculation (where it goes 1018825 to "995KB") where on some unlucky edge-case numbers it could non-determinitively choose different sig figs (e.g. flipping between 994.9KB and 995KB)
    Fixed a couple of file move actions that were unable to move across Windows partitions when the timestamp was before 1980-01-01 (issue #989)
    Mr bones now recognises you are not a new user if you deleted all your files. you can never exit
    After some testing, it seems like large 'drop table' operations in SQLite sometimes work within seconds but generally take far longer, often working as slow as 10MB/s (and I just talked to a guy for whom it took days(!!!). writing a fix to make 'delete service' always run fast for something as large as the PTR will take planning and work, so for now I have attached a warning note to the delete service confirmation dialog
    Updated the file maintenance review panel to newer async code
    Fixed a typo bug in URL export when a file is missing/bad in file maintenance

Changelog

    client api:

    /add_tags/add_tags now supports 'service_keys_to_tags' and 'service_keys_to_actions_to_tags'.
    /add_urls/add_url now supports 'service_keys_to_additional_tags'
    /get_files/file_metadata now returns with duplicates of the tag structures using 'service_keys_to_statuses_to_(display_)tags'
    added unit tests for the above
    updated the client api help for the above
    I recommend you move from 'service_names_to...' to 'service_keys_to...' when convenient. 'names' was an ugly old hack, and while I am not in a rush to delete it from the client api, I think I will eventually
    client api version is now 21

    apngs and clips:

    fixed a problem where the new apng metadata parsing was not completely hooked up, so num_frames was not being parsed correct for the final metadata row even when 'apng' filetype was, leading to some odd '1 frame apng' situations
    apng parsing now recognises more kinds of apngs--if one has an unusual scaling chunk in the header, this is recognised and the correct animation chunk searched for
    clip files now get resolution on import and a thumbnail! big thanks to the user who dug up how to extract this--it actually comes from a sqlite file embedded in the clip! (issue #996)
    on update, all apngs and clips will be scheduled for metadata rescan, and all clips will be scheduled for thumbnail generation

    misc:

    right-clicking a selection tag and choosing 'select->files with x tag' now obeys the current tag domain (previously, it forced 'all known tags'). so, if you want to quickly select just the files with 'samus aran' on 'my tags', it should be doable
    the new 'partial' download resumer system will now tolerate two successive empty chunks before throwing a 'this chunk was empty' error. it seems some servers will randomly give an empty chunk at times during 206 transfers
    cancelling the slideshow custom time dialog no longer raises an error
    after the build boot problem last week, updated the opencv version in requirements.txts--we are now officially >=4.0.0, <=4.5.3.56. it looks like pyinstaller needs a patch for 4.5.4.58 to work, so we'll wait for that. I am improving my weekly test routine to try to catch this in future
    also, the windows build no longer includes two copies of an opencv dll. turns out PyInstaller finds this dll ok now (putting it in another location) and it doesn't need to be explicitly added during build
    added a new help file to the db dir for users who experience crashes as soon as they load videos in mpv when using WASAPI or ASIO drivers. thanks greatly for the user who figured out the mpv.conf solution here (issue #973)

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

Freeware

Whats new:>>

    Added : Ability to add the album's back cover.
    Added : Show back cover in the presentation page.
    Added : Images to Export albums > Excel. (Excel must be installed).

Manage large media collections and re-organize them using tags instead of folders that you can share via custom servers with this application.

The Unlicense

Changelog

    Misc:

    The text on the animation scanbar is now center-vertically aligned and should look better on taller and thinner scanbars (issue #998)
    The scanbar now reports better frame number and current time for the mpv player when the current video is very short or has very few frames. screamer gifs should now report 2/2 frames if you scan to the right, not like 97/2
    Fixed using the mpv player with an embed button (it previously was staying hidden even after embed was clicked) (issue #999)
    The 'search' submenu when you right-click on tags in certain locations now shows add/exclude namespace:anything if all the selected tags share the same namespace
    As an experiment that I think will be bulked out into proper shortcuts later, and maybe actual +/- buttons like you'll see on a booru, if you activate the 'selection tags' listbox (double-click or enter key) while ctrl is down, it now excludes the selected tags from the current query
    When you paste query texts into the edit subscription dialog, those queries already in the sub and DEAD will now be revived (it does a 'check now' on them). the dialog reports this
    When editing subscriptions, the way it waits for the current subs to stop running is improved. it is now separate from the global 'pause subs' variable, so big delays here (e.g. waiting a long time to open the dialog, then hitting 'pause' on the network menu, which was secretly a logically messy unpause) should be less able to run into trouble
    Watchers now sort DEAD and 404 separately when sorting the status column (previously they were sorted by their now-defunct 'next check time')
    I think I improved the speed of the new subscriptions guaranteed shutdown. I think I also fixed a shutdown hang on some lagging async jobs. there are a couple of reports of hanging shutdown, so let me know if this changes
    I moved the autocomplete options from 'gui pages' to 'search', and I brushed up the layout and tooltips there generally

    File parsing:

    Clip files with canvas size units in mm, cm, inches, or points are now parsed correctly! thanks to the user who helped here! turns out a point is 1/72 (two grossths :^)) of an inch
    Clip animations now get the number of frames and duration of the first timeline!
    All clip files will reparse for fixed resolution and duration and make new thumbs as needed on update
    Hydrus file parsing should now detect the duration of video and audio with 10 or more hours duration
    Hydrus now gets a more accurate duration estimate for files with bonkers duration/start_offset pairs, for instance "Duration: 127:57:31.25, start: 460633.291000". if you ever saw a 7MB webm with 5 hour duration (and actually 18 seconds), it could have been this. hydrus now counts frames manually when you get this sort of thing
    Any file with resolution > 360p, a duration over an hour, and size less than 64MB will be scheduled for a file metadata reparse on update

    Client api:

    /get_files/file_metadata now has an optional boolean parameter, 'hide_service_names_tags', default False, which will hide the old 'service_names_to...' tag Objects
    A unit test tests hide_service_names_tags
    Client api help documentation now talks about hide_service_names_tags
    Client api version is now 22

    Boring code refactoring and cleanup:

    Tl;dr: about 60KB total code moved out of client database!
    Moved most combined sibling+parent database code to a new 'tag display' module
    Moved autocomplete counts cache database code to a new 'mappings counts' module, and refactored a whole lot of of misc old a/c table creation and reference code into that module, cleaning things up
    The 'mappings counts' module is plugged into new repair code and on error repopulates itself as efficiently as regen code currently allows
    Moved tag cache code to a new 'tag search' module, and similar related decoupling refactoring
    The 'tag search' module is plugged into new repair code and on error repopulates itself very efficiently
    The 'local tags cache' module can now regenerate itself on boot
    Regenerating the local tags cache now works a little faster and takes less memory
    I believe client.caches.db can now regenerate all of itself automatically, with no subsequent user actions needed
    The boot database repair notifications have some quality of life improvements. modules now say whether they think they can recover everything, and there is more guidance on what to do in the different situations
    During various heavy database work, a common analysis tool now saves a lot of time on regeneration vs generation
    Pubsubs now go through the transaction wrapper, meaning modules can pubsub
    Emergency boot messages (like database trouble) are now printed to the log

Changelog

Misc:

Fixed a recent serious regression that could cause a crash when playing audio in mpv (issue #1007)
The main importer file log now does 'get next/all/count imports with status y' calls significantly faster, particularly on very large lists. these calls happen all the time for different status text changes and general 'which import to try next?' work. all busy downloader situations should see CPU gains to regular and background work
Fixed a problem where importing with the min/max file resolution options set would give a typo error when the size was violated rather than 'ignored'
I think I have fixed an issue with subscriptions not wanting to run a query if by random accident that query has an invalid URL selected as the query's 'example url' for various pre-work login and bandwidth tests
Hydrus can now capture duration/fps of videos that specify two very close fps, e.g. 60 and 59.99. previously, these would default to the 24 fallback and could cause some weirdness in mpv
Replaced the default pixiv artist page api parser with one that fetches the newer url format, matching the tag search. existing users will see no automatic change but will receive the new parser, so if you are a big pixiv user, you might like to switch 'pixiv artist gallery page api' to the 'new urls' parser variant under network->downloader components->manage url class links. note that if you do this, your pixiv artist subscriptions will do a mini-resync (which involves some wasted time/bandwidth) as their urls change!

Network redirect improvements:

Gallery page jobs now give their child 'next gallery page' jobs themselves as a referrer
When the gallery downloader gets a 3XX redirect, the file import objects and next gallery pages it makes now get the redirected URL as referral url (previously, it used the original gallery url)
When the post downloader gets a 3XX redirect, the redirected url is now added as a primary source url
When the post downloader gets a 3XX redirect, child import objects and direct file downloads now get the redirect URL as referral url (previously, it used the original post url)
When the raw file downloader gets a 3XX redirect, the redirected url is now added as a primary source url
When the raw file downloader gets a 3XX redirect to a Post URL, it now tries to queue that URL back up in the file log, just like when a gallery fetch comes back with a Post URL. some safety code stops potential loops here as well

New services:

A new client now starts with a second local tag service called 'downloader tags'. default tag import options are now initialised in a fresh client to pull all file post tags to this service. this should relieve new users' confusion about setting up default tag import options
Similarly, a new client now starts with a like/dislike rating service called 'favourites'. existing users who have no rating services will be asked if they want to get it on update. many users are unaware of the rating system, so this is a chance to play with it
The 'getting started with downloading' 'and '...with ratings' help has some updated screenshots and talk about the new default services and parsing

Database fixes:

Fixed a very slow database query that was involved with file search using unnamespaced tags when other search predicates had already limited the scope of search fixed a similar slow query when the 'bad' search predicate was 'namespace:anything', particularly when the namespace is a wildcard
Fixed the 'clear orphan tables' database maintenance routine. it had decayed due to bit rot and was deleting new repository processing tracking tables. the routine is now plugged directly into the new database modules system, and any module now can be upgraded to discover surplus service tables. the system has been updated to permit the detection and removal of duplicate tables in the wrong database file, and it also makes a statement if no orphan tables were found
The 'metadata resync' repository maintenance task now removes surplus file rows from the processing tracking tables
The 'metadata resync' repository maintenance task now corrects content type rows in the main processing tracking table
The process of registering updates to a repository is now a little faster, more reliable, repairs basic damage, and keeps more good work when damage needs to be repaired
I think the users who were still getting PTR processing errors related to a database confusion about content/definitions update files should now be fixed after another full metadata resync! please let me know if there are still problems

Changelog

    Misc:

    Ogv files (ogg with a video stream) are now recognised by the client! they will get resolution, duration, num frames and now show in the media viewer correctly as resizeable videos. all your existing ogg files will be scheduled for a rescan on update
    Wrote new downloader objects to fix deviant art tag search. all clients will automatically update and should with luck just be working again with the same old 'deviant art tag search' downloader
    Added prototype copy/paste buttons to the manage ratings dialog. the copy button also grabs 'null' ratings, let me know how you get on here and we'll tweak as needed
    File searches with namespaced and unnamespaced tags should now run just a little faster
    Most file searches with multiple search predicates that include normal tags should now run just a little faster
    The file log right-click menu now shows 'delete x yyy files from the queue' for deleted, ignored, failed, and skipped states separately
    The tag siblings + parents display sync manager now forces more wait time before it does work. it now waits for the database and gui to be free of pending or current background work. this should stop slower clients getting into hangs when the afterwork updates pile up and overwhelm the main work
    The option 'warn at this many pages' under options->gui pages now has a max value of 65535, up from 500. if you are a madman or you have very page-spammy subscriptions, feel free to try boosting this super high. be warned this may lead to resource limit crashes
    The 'max pages' value that triggers a full yes/no dialog on page open is now set as the maximum value of 500 and 2 x the 'warn at this many pages' value
    The 'max pages' dialog trigger now only fires if there are no dialogs currently open (this should fix a nested dialog crash when page-publishing subscriptions goes bananas)
    Improved error reporting for unsolveable cloudflare captcha errors
    Added clarification text to the edit subscription query dialog regarding the tag import options there
    Added/updated a bunch of file import options tooltips

    New presentation import options:

    The 'presentation' section of 'file import options' has been completely overhauled. it can do more, and is more human-friendly
    Rather than the old three checkboxes of new/already-in-inbox/already-in-archive, you now choose from three dropdowns--do you want all/new/none, do you want all/only-inbox/inbox-too, and do you want to my-files/and-trash-too. it is now possible to show 'in inbox' exclusively, at the time of publish (e.g. when you highlight)
    Added a little help UI text around the places presentation is used
    The downloader and watcher page's list right-click menu entries for 'show xxx files' is now a submenu, uses the new presentation import options, shows 'show inbox files', and if you click on one row it says what the default is and excludes other entries if they are duplicates

    Boring presentation import options stuff:

    Presentation options are now in their own object and will be easier to update in future
    The 'should I present' code is radically cleaned up and refactored to a single central object
    Presentation filtering in general has more sophisticated logic and is faster when used on a list (e.g. when you highlight a decent sized downloader and it has to figure out which thumbs to show). it is now careful about only checking for inbox status on outstanding files
    Presentation now always checks file domain, whereas before this was ad-hoc and scattered around (and in some buggy cases lead to long-deleted files appearing in import views)
    Added a full suite of unit tests to ensure the presentation import options object is making the right decisions and filtering efficiently at each stage

    Boring multiple local file services work:

    I basically moved a bunch of file search code from 1 file services to n file services:
    The file storage module can now filter file ids to a complex location search context
    Namespace:anything searches of various sorts now use complex location search contexts
    Wildcard tag searches now use complex location search contexts
    Counted tag searches now use complex location search contexts
    Search code that uses complex location search contexts now cross-references its file results in all cases
    I now have a great plan to add deleted files search and keep it working quick. this will be the next step, and then I can do efficient complex-location regular tag search and hopefully just switch over the autocomplete control to allow deleted files search

Changelog

    Image icc:

    images with embedded icc colour metadata are now normalised (to sRGB) like the rest of media rendering in hydrus. ICC can often mean photos, where a nice camera will apply ICC data to compensate for camera defects or general lighting information, or it can mean normal digital images where the software attached extra colour data when it was saved
    the image will now be rendered with 'fixed' colours in the media viewer, and new thumbnails should be good too. it applies early in image load and should work in all cases hereon, on both client and server
    images with an ICC will take a little longer to initially load. I'd estimate 10-50ms extra for most. one user with many ICC images discovered 10% of their collection had an ICC. I don't think the delay will be terrible IRL, but see how you get on and let me know! maybe giganto patreon pngs will have a fresh surprise for us
    future expansions here will be a database cache of ICC images and system:has icc, perhaps a button to click the ICC application on and off live in the media viewer, and then maybe options to load up and switch an ICC for your display

    Better physical file delete:

    both client and server now physically delete files from storage more smoothly and reliably. the 'deferred file delete' list is now saved in the database itself and will survive reboots (and undo itself if a file is re-added before it can be deleted), and the physical delete daemons are able to work at a less spiky pace as a result. physical delete summaries are now logged as well
    the server now physically deletes surplus files from its file storage! this never actually came up before jej--servers were just keeping all files forever
    on update, all servers will scan to see which files it only has deletion records for and will queue them for a deferred delete
    when deleting a service from the server, all its file repository files and/or general repository update files are now queued for deferred deletion if they are now orphaned
    some advanced 'pending upload file delete' logical situations are now tidied up better, for instance if you have a file set to upload to a file repository or IPFS and then delete the file from the trash, the file will hang around until the upload is done and then it will be correctly scheduled for physically deletion. same for if you delete the file repository or clear all its pending. previously, this file would never delete and become an orphan
    thumbnails for non-downloaded file repository files are now removed promptly from a client if a file repository deletes a file

    Misc:

    fixed a typo error in last week's file filtering changes when doing wildcard tag searches in 'all known files' domain
    fixed some bad namespace search optimisation also caused by last week's search updates that was making 'system:has x unnamespaced tags' search instead count all tags, not just unnamespaced (issue #1017)
    fixed incorrect file type handling in thumbnail loading that was triggering a safe mode for gif file thumbs (which are actually jpeg/png), it should roughly double thumb load speed for gifs (and .ico too lol)

    Boring image stuff:

    wrote some methods to check for and pull ICC profile bytes from an image with PIL
    wrote ICC application in PIL on image load. we had figured out a way to do it with Qt, but this can happen right at the start of the rendering pipeline and will work for the server too
    cleaned up some PIL/OpenCV image load and normalisation code
    the decompression bomb check is now quicker for images with rotation
    dequantization is now applied to PIL on all image load by default, it doesn't have to be invoked separately
    some metadata parsing like 'get duration of gif frames' is now faster for images not in RGB or RGBA color

    Boring delete code cleanup:

    wrote a heap of new 'is an orphan' filtering logic for client and server
    wrote a daemon job for physical file deletion and plugged it into a new database queue for pending deferred file deletes
    client physical file delete now works off the normal lightweight job scheduler, previously it had its own mainloop thread
    optimised complex file domain file filtering a little
    the 'clear orphan files' job in the client now uses the same updated orphan logic as the new physical delete code. it now won't clear out files in upload limbo
    fixed an issue with re-storing a file in a server after one of its file repositories had previously deleted it. this never mattered previously, when files were never physically deleted, but now the code is brushed up to work properly
    cleaned up some server db code, including the read command method lookup
    moved client 'hash exists?' test down to the master definitions module

Changelog

    misc:

    fixed a recent bug in wildcard search where 't*g' unnamespaced wildcards were not returning namespace results
    sped up multi-predicate wildcard searches in some unusual file domains
    the file maintenance manager is now more polite about how it works. no matter its speed settings, it now pauses regularly to check on and wait until the main UI is feeling good to start new work. this should relieve heavier clients on older machines who will get a bunch of new work to do this week
    'all local files' in review services now states how many files are awaiting physical deletion in the new deferred delete queue. this live updates when the values change but should be 0 pretty much all the time
    'all known files' in review services also gets a second safety yes/no dialog on its clear deleted files record button
    updated the gelbooru 0.2.x gallery page parser, which at some point had been pulling 'delete from favourites' links when running the login-required 'gelbooru favorites by user id' downloader!!! it was deleting favourites, which I presume and hope was a recent change in gelbooru's html. in any case, the parser now skips over any deletion url (issue #1023)
    fixed a bad index to label conversion in a common database progress method. it was commonly saying 22/21 progress instead of 21/21
    fixed an error when manage tags dialog posts tags from the autocomplete during dialog shutdown
    fixed a layout issue with the new presentation import options where the dropdowns could grow a little tall and make a sub-panel scrollbar
    added handling for an error raised on loading an image with what seems to be a borked ICC profile
    increased the default per-db-file cache size from 200MB up to 256MB

    some new options:

    the default tag service in the manage tags dialog (and some similar 'tag services in a row of tabs' dialogs) is reset this week. from now on, the last used service is remembered for the next time the dialog is opened. let's see how that works out. if you don't like it, you can go back to the old fixed default setting under the 'tags' options panel
    added a checkbox to the 'search' options panel that controls whether new search pages are in 'searching immediately' or 'searching paused' state (issue #761)
    moved default tag sort from 'tags' options panel to 'sort/collect'

    deleted files and ipfs searchability:

    wrote a new virtual file service to hold all previously deleted files of all real file services. this provides a mapping cache and tag lookup cache allowing for fast search of any deleted file domain in the future
    ipfs services also now have mapping caches and tag search caches
    ipfs services are now searchable in the main file search view! just select them from the autocomplete dropdown file domain button. they have tag counts and everything
    it will take some time to populate the new ipfs and deleted files caches. if you don't have much deleted files history and no ipfs, it will be a few seconds. if you have a massive client with many deleted/ipfs files and many tags, it could be twenty minutes or more

    'has icc profile' now cached in database:

    the client database now keeps track of which image files have an icc profile. this data is added on file import
    a new file maintenance task can generate it retroactively, and if a file is discovered to have an icc profile, it will be scheduled for a thumbnail regeneration too
    a new system predicate, 'system:has icc profile', can now search this data. this system pred is weird, so I expect in future it will get tucked into an umbrella system pred for advanced/rare stuff
    on update, all your existing image files are scheduled for the maintenance task. your 'has icc profile' will populate over time, and thumbnails will correct themselves

    pixel hash now cached in database:

    the client database now keeps track of image 'pixel hashes', which are fast unique identifiers that aggregate all that image's pixels. if two images have the same pixel hash, they are pixel duplicates. this data is added on file import
    a new file maintenance task can generate it retroactively
    on update, all your existing image files are scheduled for the maintenance task. it'll work lightly in the background in prep for future duplicate file system improvements

    boring search code cleanup:

    fixed a bug where the tag search cache could lose sibling/parent-chained values when their count was zeroed, even though they should always exist in a domain's lookup
    fixed up some repository reset code that was regenerating surplus tag search data
    with the new deleted files domain, simplified the new complex domain search pattern
    converted basic tag search code to support multiple location domains
    cleaned up some search cache and general table creation code to handle legacy orphan tables without error
    misc tag and mapping cache code and combined local files code refactoring and cleanup

Changelog

    video scanbar autohide:

    the scanbar that shows below audio and video is now embedded inside the video frame, and it show/hides based on how close your mouse is to it
    I've wanted to do this for a long time, since it will allow you to watch 16:9 videos at true 100% in borderless fullscreen, but the hackery of how the media viewer works behind the scenes means this took more work than you'd think and is still a little jank. there's a small amount of flicker when it pops in and out, which I will work on in future. in any case, please have a play with it and let me know what you think. I expect to add some more options, like for the activation padding area around it, and I will be tidying up more layout stuff throughout the media viewer
    if you are a mostly keyboard user, please check out the new 'global' shortcut to flip on/off a 'force the animation scanbar to show' mode
    I don't really want to bring back the always-on hanging-below scanbar that just takes up space, but if you try this new embedded scanbar and really hate it, we'll see what we can do

    more duplicate filter search options:

    the duplicates page now has a dropdown on the search for 'must be/can be/excludes pixel dupes'!
    the duplicates page now has a number control on the search for what distance the pair was found at! I am not sure how accurate this thing is in all cases, but it seems I started tracking this data some time ago and forgot I even had it
    these new options are remembered in your session and should remain fast in most normal cases. I put time into some complicated database work this week to get this going, please let me know if you have any trouble with it

    misc:

    when the export filename pattern in the export files dialog means many of the files share the same base and hence need to do 'filename (5)'-style suffixes to be unique, the number here is now calculated much more efficiently. opening this dialog on 10,000 files with an oft-duplicate pattern should now be a jolt of lag but not many minutes
    when you choose to 'separate' a subscription with more than 100 queries, you are no longer forced to break it into half
    when you do break a subscription in half, it now makes sure to sort the query texts before separating
    if you are in advanced mode, the 'selection tags' list on the left of every page can now switch its tag display type between 'multiple media views', 'display', and 'storage'. this is experimental and a bunch of stuff like 'select files with this tag' won't work yet
    janitors' petition pages now start with their tag list in 'storage' mode, so you can see the actual tags being changed rather than with siblings and parents calculated
    rebalanced some janitor mapping petition weights. jannies should see a smoother balance of 'lots of small petitions' vs 'a few larger petitions' amongst petitions all with the same reason and creator

    boring cleanup and little fixes:

    when you set the checker options in the edit subscription dialog, the queries now recalculate their file velocity better. previously, they would just set 'unknown' and recalc on the next run, but now they will actually recalculate if the query container is loaded into memory or otherwise put a status that says 'will calculate on next run'
    removed the 'should be namespaced' reason from the manage tags quick petition reasons. this is now all handled by siblings, tidying up storage tags manually is busywork
    when you click 'copy traceback' on an error popup, it also copies the software version, your platform, and if you are on a frozen build or running from source
    the logger now prints version number for every block, just before the timestamp
    cleaned up a variety of media viewer UI code while working on the scanbar, fixing some misc display bugs
    moved pixel hash storage responsibility from 'file metadata' to 'similar files' module
    the similar files system now searches pixel hashes when it is called to do any similar files search. they count as 'exact match' distance
    when a file gets a new pixel hash, it now sees if any other files have that same hash. if so, it now gets queued up again in the similar files search system, ensuring this match is not missed
    misc nomenclature cleanup--since we now have both 'pixel hashes' and 'phashes', phashes are now referred to as 'perceptual hashes' everywhere
    massively refactored the primary table join that drives potential duplicates search. it should work a bit faster now and it is much easier to work with
    I added pixel dupe and distance search to the standard search results version of the join and the 'system:everything' version, which has several optimisations
    silenced some shutdown handling in file maintenance that was being printed to log as an error
    fixed some 'broken object load' error handling to print the timestamp of the specific bad object, not whatever timestamp was requested. this error handling now also prints the full dump name and version to the log, and version to the exported filename. I was working with a user who had broken subs this week, and lacking this full info made things just a little trickier to put back together
    fixed some drag and drop handling where it was possible to drop thumbnails on a certain location of a page of pages that held an empty page of pages but it would not create a new child media page to hold them
    misc serverside db code cleanup
    fixed python 3.10 type bugs in window coordinate saving and Qt image generation from buffer (issue #1027)

Changelog

    New scanbar cleanup:

    The media container's scanbar and volume control are now combined on the same widget, meaning they now show/hide in sync and faster. their layout calculation is also more sensible. the new controls bar also has a thin border to make it pop better against a background video
    Improved the way some auto-hide anti-flicker tech on the scanbar now works. it all hides a frame faster sometimes
    Figured out some new anti-flicker tech to reduce/eliminate a frame of stretch when flicking from a static image to an mpv video, particularly for the first or second time in a session
    Fixed a bug where clicking the global mute/unmute on an mpv player meant that certain shortcut keys (usually those with arrow keys) would not work on that player again. (it was a focus issue on the button, which then captured some form navigation keys but they had nowhere to go)
    Brushed up some mouse coordinate testing logic across the program. some linux clients had trouble with the new animation scanbar popping up over mpv, I think I improved it!
    Fixed another type problem with newer python/PyQt5 on Arch, also in scanbar coordinate testing
    Fixed some dodgy colours in the scanbar initialisation and volume control border
    MacOS users: I undid a long-time paint hack on the media container and the static image canvas. Qt is responsible for clearing the background again, which allows me to remove some jank anti-flicker tech. HOWEVER, the original reason for this hack was because without it, old macOS went to 100% CPU whenever the media viewer was showing something. therefore, to be safe, this option is still on for macOS users for now. you'll get a little flicker when browsing. please try hitting help->debug->gui actions->macOS anti-flicker test and do some mixed video/image browsing. does your whole damn client lock up?

    Misc:

    The 'file log' and 'search log' buttons are now a new widget class that puts an arrow on the side that opens a menu. the secret right-click menus of these buttons is now exposed for all
    Fixed a bug affecting some greyscale pngs with ICC profiles--they were coming out pure white due to a colourspace conversion problem
    Fixed an import problem when PIL could not load a file (due to file malformation) but OpenCV could. this was causing a failed import from the new ICC profile detection code
    When the downloader hits a broken image file that cannot be imported due to malformation, the status is now 'error' instead of the incorrect 'ignored'
    Fixed the duplicate file filesize comparison statement sometimes showing > in one direction and ? in the other. it happened when the larger file was between 20/19 and 21/20 times the size of the smaller, just a logic typo (issue #1028)
    The trash maintenance daemon is moved from the old threaded daemon system to the new repeating job worker pool. this is the last daemon cleaned up, so I am retiring the old and mostly defunct 'no_daemons' launch argument. a variety of other daemon infrastructure for things like shutdown checks is similarly removed. the program also now waits for the newer daemon jobs to finish working on shutdown
    Moved most client daemon jobs like repository sync and dirty object save down so they start after the first session is loaded rather than right after boot
    If a file is called to regen its thumbnail but currently has no dimension, this is now a no-op rather than an error. in the situation where users force thumb regen before metadata regen and encounter this, it is sorted out later when the metadata regen recognises new dimensions and reschedules the thumb regen
    Added an extensive user-written guide to the --db_synchronous_override launch argument to the launch arguments help page. it is possible and safe to run the program with synchronous=0 as long as certain caveats are obeyed. thanks to the user who figured this out and wrote it up
    The downloader engine now discards source urls in an import job if they have the same domain as any existing primary url. this will ensure that if a booru has a link back to itself as a source url, when the 'source' is really an alternate rather than a dupe, it won't be added in hydrus as a known url for that imported file
    Misc cleanup in downloader system and file/search log UI
    Fixed a type bug in the file and search log 'import from png' action. if you have existing pngs previously exported from here, they will import ok now
    Refactored the various hydrus compression code to a new HydrusCompression file
    Exported serialisable data pngs such as from file or search log that hold simple Strings now always compress the data before embedding it in the png. existing pngs that hold uncompressed strings should still load ok
    The payload in an exported png is now always compressed, and the payload description always states the uncompressed size
    Sped up client shutdown when network traffic has been paused the whole time and a repo sync job might have wanted to run. these jobs also do not hang on a thread worker if network traffic is paused, but they should wake immediately when it is unpaused
    The hydrus login system is now resistant to connection failures; previously it was getting hung up and jamming the whole hydrus sync system when a server was down

    Client api:

    Added GET /manage_database/mr_bones to the Client API. it returns a JSON Object with the same numbers used in the help->how boned am I? dialog
    Incremented Client API version to 23

Changelog


    misc:

    fixed an issue where the one pixel border on the new 'control bar' on the media viewer was annoyingly catching mouse events at the bottom of the screen when in borderless fullscreen mode (and hence dragging the video, not scanning video position). the animation scanbar now owns its own border and processes mouse events on it properly
    fixed a typo bug in the new pixel hash system that meant new imports were not being added to the system correctly. on update, all files affected will be fixed of bad data and scheduled for a pixel hash regen. sorry for the trouble, and thank you for the quick reports here
    added a 'fixed font size example' qss file to the install. I have passed this file to others as an example of a quick way to make the font (and essentially ui scale) larger. it has some help comments inside and is now always available. the default example font size is lmao
    fixed another type checking problem for (mostly Arch/AUR) PyQt5 users (issue #1033)
    wrote a new display mappings maintenance routine for the database menu that repopulates the display mappings cache for missing rows. this task will be radically faster than a full regen for some problems, but it only solves those problems
    on boot, the program now explicitly checks if any of the database files are set as read-only and if so will dump out with an appropriate error
    rewrote my various 'file size problem' exception hierarchy to clearly split 'the file import options disallow this big gif' vs 'this file is zero size/this file is malformed'. we've had several problems here recently, but file import options rule-breaking should set 'ignore' again, and import objects should be better about ignore vs fail state from now on
    added more error handling for broken image files. some will report cleaner errors, some will now import
    the new parsing system that discards source urls if they share a domain with a primary import url is now stricter--now discarding only if they share the same url class. the domain check was messing up saving post urls when they were parsed from an api url (issue #1036)
    the network engine no longer sends a Range header if it is expecting to pull html/json, just files. this fixes fetching pages from nijie.info (and several other server engines, it seems), which has some unusual access rules regarding Range and Accept-Encoding
    fixed a problem with no_daemons and the docker package server scripts (issue #1039)
    if the server engine (serverside or client api) is running a request during program shutdown, it now politely says 'Application is shutting down!' with a 503 rather than going bananas and dumping to log with an uncaught 500
    fixed some bad client db update error handling code

    multiple local file services (system predicate edition):

    system:file service now supports 'deleted' and 'petitioned' status
    advanced 'all known files' search pages now show more system predicates
    when inbox and archive are hidden because one has 0 count, and the search space is simple, system everything now says what they are, e.g. "system:everything (24) (all in inbox)"
    file repos' 'system:local/not local' now sort at the top of the system predicate list, like inbox/archive
    client api:
    the GET /get_files/file_metadata call now returns the file modified date and imported/deleted timestamps for each file service the file is currently in or deleted from. check the help for an example!
    fixed client api file search with random sort (file_sort_type = 4)
    client api version is now 24

    boring multiple local file services work:

    the system predicates listed in a search page dropdown now support the new 'multiple location search context' object, which means in future I will be able to switch over to 'file domain is union of (A, deleted from B, and C)' and all the numbers will add up appropriately with ranged 'x-y' counts and deal with combinations of file repo and local service and current/deleted neatly
    when fetching system preds in 'all known files', the system:everything 'num files' count will be stated if available in the cache
    for the new system:file service search, refactored db level file filtering to support all status types
    cleaned up how system preds are generated

    boring refactoring work:

    moved GUGs from network domain code to their own file
    moved URL Class from network domain code to its own file
    moved the pure functions from network domain code to their own file
    cleared up some file maintenance enum variable names
    sped up random file sort for large result sets
    misc client network code cleanup and type hints, and rejiggered cleaner imports after the refactoring

(https://s26.postimg.cc/fmlbof0jd/screenshot_1213.png)
The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

Freeware

Whats new:>>

    Added : Move/Rename audio file folders dialog.
    Changed : Many improvements in album track lyrics.
    Changed : Increased the album medium number limit to 200.
    Fixed : Some minor bugs.

Changelog


    Misc:

    The 'search log' button and the window panel now let you delete log entries. you can delete by completion status from the menu or specifically by row in the panel (just like the file log)
    Fixed the new 'file is writable' checks for Linux/macOS, which were testing permissions overbroadly and messing with users with user-only permissions set. the code now hands off specific user/group negotiation to the OS. thanks to the maintainer of the AUR package for helping me out here (issue #1042)
    The various places where a file's permission bits are set are also cleaned up--hydrus now makes a distinction between double-checking a file is set user-writable before deleting/overwriting vs making a file's permission bits (which were potentially messed up in the past) 'nice' for human use after export. in the latter case, which still defaults to 644 on linux/macOS, the user's umask is now applied, so it should be 600 if you prefer that
    Fixed a bug where the media viewer could have trouble initialising video when the player window instantiation was delayed (e.g. with embed button)

    Client api:

    Added 'return_hashes' boolean parameter to GET /get_files/search_files, which makes the command return hashes instead of file ids. this is documented in the help and has a new unit test
    Client api version is now 25

    Multiple local file services work:

    I rewrote a lot of code this week, but it proved more complex than I expected. I also discovered I'll have to switch the pages and canvases over too before I can nicely switch the top level UI over to allow multiple search. rather than release a borked feature, I decided not to rush the final phase, so this remains boring for now! the good news is that it works well when I hack it in, so I just need to keep pushing
    Rewrote the caller side of tag autocomplete lookup to work on the new multiple file search domain
    Rewrote the main database level tag lookup code to work on the new multiple file search domain
    Certain types of complicated tag autocomplete lookup, particularly on all known tags and any client with lots of siblings, will be faster now
    An unusual and complicated too-expansive sibling lookup on autocomplete lookups on 'all known tags' is now fixed

    Boring cleanup and refactoring:

    Predicate counts are now managed by a new object. predicates also support 0 minimum count for x-y count ranges, which is now possible when fetching count results from non-cross-referenced file domains (for now this means searching deleted files)
    Cleaned up a ton of predicate instantiation code
    Updated autocomplete, predicate, and pred count unit tests to handle the new objects and bug fixes
    Wrote new classess to cover convenient multiple file search domain at the database level and updated a bunch of tag autocomplete search code to use it
    Misc cleanup and refactoring for file domain search code
    Purged more single file service inspection code from file search systems
    Refactored most duplicate files storage code (about 70KB) to a new client db module

Changelog


    Multiple file services:

    I finished the conversion of all UI search to the new multiple location object. everything from back- to frontend now supports cleverer search. since searching deleted files is simple to add, users in advanced mode will now see 'deleted from...' in a new list in the tag autocomplete dropdown file domain button
    the next step is writing a widget that allows multiple selection, and then all this should work right out of the box, and we'll be an important step closer to allowing multiple local file services

    Misc:

    the video parsing routine is better at detecting when a present audio track is actually silent (and hence when it should mark a video as 'no audio'). all video with audio will be requeued for a metadata reparse in the files maintenance system on update
    fixed an error from last week when trying to create a new page from the tags (e.g. middle-clicking them) in the active search list
    added 'audio mkv' format to the client, to represent mkvs without a video track. I think most of the time this is going to be audio track webms from youtube-dl and similar
    added 'file relationships: set files as potential duplicates' command to the 'media actions' shortcut set
    I expanded the 'backing up' section in 'installing and updating' help
    I wrote an 'anti-virus' section for 'installing and updating' help, since I kept writing the same basic spiel about false positives. please feel free to point people there in future to relieve their concerns
    improved some shutdown tests, the client and server should exit faster in some cases (e.g. when a hydrus repository network job is hanging on reconnection attempts, holding up the 'synchronise_repository' daemon shutdown)
    the 'file was xxx at (y timestamp), which was (z time units) before this check' line in file import notes now always puts 'z time units' as that, ignoring the 'always show ISO time' setting, which was just substituting it with 'y timestamp' again. let me know if you spot other bad grammar with this setting on, I'll fix it!
    fingers crossed, images in the LAB colourspace should now normalise to sRGB with the correct whitepoint. thanks to the user who provided example test tiff images here. this now uses the new PIL-based colourspace conversion I used to make ICC profiles work, just on LAB->sRGB. as far as I understand, OpenCV uses a fixed whitepoint of D65, resulting in yellow/warm conversions for some formats, but PIL may be able to figure out if D50 is needed??? if you have some crazy LUV or YPbPr or YIQ image that shows up wrong, please send it in and I'll see what I can do!

    Boring rewrites and cleanup while doing file service work:

    many more UI objects now store and do file service logic using a more complicated 'location context', which can store a mix of multiple services and 'deleted from service' data. all the search code that works on this can now propagate to display:
    the management objects behind every page now store a multiple location object, not a single file service id
    all media panels (the thumbnail grid on a page) are now instantiated by a multiple location object, and when they serve a highlighted downloader, they now inherit that from the file import options, which in future will dictate import destinations
    all canvases are now the same, inheriting their new location context from their parents
    all tag lists are the same. mostly they don't care much about file domain, but when you middle-click to create new pages from the autocomplete dropdown list or active search list, it can matter, so they now propagate it along
    the underlying medialist objects are now the same, and various delete logic (e.g. 'should we remove this thumb we just deleted?') is updated to work on complex domains
    some duplicate lookup code now works on location context
    renamed 'location search context' object to 'location context' since it is used all over now and put it in its own file. also wrote it some neater initialisation and meta object code
    mr bones now gives duplicate data based on the union of all non-trash local services sans update files (another case of now supporting n services but n is fixed for the moment at 1, 'my files')
    a bunch of places across the program that used to default to 'my files' or 'all local files' (which is everything on disk, including trash and repository update files) now default to this new union of all non-trash local media services
    when doing page-to-page file drag and drops, the location context is now preserved (previously, the new page would always be 'my files')
    whole heap of other cleanup in these systems
    when a thumbnail cannot be provided (for deleted files or many 'all known files' situations), the thumbnail cache now provides the hydrus icon stand-in instantly, no delayed waterfall
    fixed an unusual situation where the file search could not provide a file in a tagless search when that file had no detailed file info row in the database. this seems to effect a legacy borked row or two in the new deleted file domain searches
    removed some ancient dumper status code from thumbnail objects

    Times:

    If you have file viewing stats turned on (by default it is), the client will now track the 'last viewed time' of your files, both in preview and media viewers. a record is only made assuming they pass the viewtime checks under options->file viewing statistics (so if you scroll through really quick but have it set to only record after five seconds of viewing, it will not save that as the last viewed time). this last viewed time is shown on the right-click menu with the normal file viewing statistics
    Sorting by 'import time' and 'modified time' are moved to a new 'time' subgroup in the sort button menu
    Also added to 'time' is 'last viewed time'. note that this has not been tracked until now, so you will have to look at a bunch of things for a few seconds each to get some data to sort with
    To go with 'x time' pattern, 'time imported' is renamed to 'import time' across the program. both should work for system predicate parsing
    System:'import time' and 'modified time' are now bundled into a new 'system:time' stub in the system predicates list. the window launched from here is an experimental new paged panel. I am not sure I really like it, but let's see how it works IRL
    'system:last view time' is added to search the new field! give it a go once you have some data
    Also note that the search and sort of last viewed time works on the 'media viewer' number. those users who use preview or combined numbers for stuff, let me know if and how you would like that to work here--sort/search for both media and preview, try to combine based on the logic in the options, or something else?

    Loading serialised pngs:

    The client can now load serialised downloader-pngs if they are a perfect RGB conversion of an original greyscale export.
    The pngs don't technically have to be pngs anymore! if you drag and drop an image from firefox, the temporary bitmap exported and attached to the DnD should work!
    The lain easy downloader import now has a clipboard paste button. it can take regular json text, and now, bitmap data!
    The 'import->from clipboard' button action in many multiple column lists across the program (e.g. manage parsers) (but not every list, a couple are working on older code) also now accepts bitmap data on the clipboard
    The various load errors here are also improved

    Custom widget colors:

    (advanced users only for now)
    After banging my head against it, I finally figured out an ok way to send colors from a QSS style file to python code. this means I can convert my custom widgets to inherit colours from the current QSS. I expect to migrate pretty much everything currently fixed over to this, except tag colours and maybe some thumbnail border stuff, and retire the old darkmode
    If you are a QSS lad, please check out the new entries at the bottom of default_hydrus.qss and play around with them in your own QSSes. please do not send me any updates to be folded in to the install yet as I still have a bunch of other colours to add. this week is just a test--please let me know how it works for you

    Misc:

    Mouse release events no longer trigger a command in the shortcuts system if the release happens more than about 20 pixels from the original mouse down. this is tricky, so if you are into clever shortcuts, let me know how it works for you
    The file maintenance manager (which has been getting a lot of work recently with icc profiles, pixel dupes, some thumb regen, and new audio channel checks), now saves its work and publishes updates faster to the UI, at least once every ten seconds
    The sort entries in the page sort control are now always sorted according to their full (type, name) string, and the mouse-wheel-to-navigate is now fixed to always mirror this
    Improved some 'delete file reason' handling. currently, a file deletion reason should only be applied when a file is entering trash. there was a bug that force-physical-deleting files from trash would overwrite their original deletion reason. this is now fixed. the advanced delete files dialog now disables the whole reason panel better when needed, never sends a file reason down to the database when there should be no reason, disables the panel if all the files are in the trash, and at the database level when file deletion reasons are being set, all files are filtered for status beforehand to ensure none are accidentally set by other means. I am about to make trash more intelligent as part of multiple local file services, so I expect to revisit this soon
    The new ICC Profile conversion no longer occurs on I or F mode files. there are weird 32/64 bit monochrome files, and mode/ICC conversion goes whack with current PIL code
    Replaced the critical hamming test in the duplicate files system with a different bit-counting strategy that works about 9% faster. hamming test is used in all duplicate file searching, so this should help out a tiny bit in a lot of places

    Boring cleanup:

    Cleaned up how media viewer canvas type is stored and tested in many places
    All across the program, file viewing statistics are now tracked by type rather than a hardcoded double of preview & media viewer. it will take a moment to update the database to reflect this this week
    Cleaned up a ton of file viewing stats code
    Cleared out the last twenty or so uses of the old 'execute many select' database access routine in favour of the new lower-overhead and more query-optimisable temporary integer tables method

Manage large media collections and re-organize them using tags instead of folders that you can share via custom servers with this application.

Changelog

    Highlights:

    The file domain button of every autocomplete input now has a 'multiple locations' entry. this launches a checkboxlist of all possible search locations and allows you to search more than one domain at once. it works, too! in future, when we can have multiple 'my files' services, you'll be able to choose here unions of what to search. users in advanced mode will see repository updates, all local files, all known files, and the new deleted file domains on this list. I removed the deleted file domains from the front menu because I expect them to be rarely used
    In options->thumbnails, there is now a 'thumbnail scaling' dropdown. you can set it so thumbs only ever scale down (which remains the default), scale to fit (i.e. very small images are also scaled up), or scale to fill. the 'animation' as thumbnails refit and delayed-regen themselves to 'scale to fill' is accidentally one of the coolest things I have done
    Removed the old 'EXPERIMENTAL: thumbnail fill' option. the new mode works essentially the same, but faster and higher quality
    In the page tab menu, there is a new submenu 'pages', which shows all the pages at or below the current level. if you right-click on a page of pages tab, it will just show for that page of pages. click any of the entries, you will select that page. it is a web browser-like quick navigation menu, let me know what you think!
    Rejiggered the page tab menu a little, reordering groups a bit with nicer separators and putting 'select' navigation on the menu even if you click in greyspace
    Fixed a problem in page tab menu logic where if you right-clicked on greyspace, it would render the menu for the bottommost page of pages row rather than the one actually clicked
    Last week's update where a mouse release event will no longer fire in the shortcuts system if the mouse moved a decent distance between press and release should now work in the media viewer canvas when dragging is set to anchor the mouse in place. some advanced users may wish to try setting archive/delete to work on mouse release and use left click to drag

    Bug fixes:

    Fixed pages force-refreshing file queries on session load. this has never been intentional, but it slipped through again and was happening for a month or two now. I have added an explicit test to my routine to make sure this doesn't happen again, sorry for the trouble!
    Fixed a problem in the recent fast shutdown code that was accidentally also shutting down some maintenance work like repository processing as soon as it started, even if 'exit and force work' was chosen
    All images with a completely opaque alpha channel will now have that alpha channel dropped for the new pixel hash calculation, meaning they will now match with regular non-alpha images with the same colour pixel data. in fact, all images with an opaque alpha now have that channel dropped on load, which will save a little memory and CPU any time they are handled (issue #770)
    If the 'durable' temporary database exists on boot, it is now deleted and a fresh one created rather than trying to re-use the old one (which would not have any useful information anyway), and a note is made to log. one user recently had a problem where an existing corrupt temp dir was stopping boot, which this fixes

    Misc:

    Updated the windows build to use a newer version of mpv, moving from roughly 2021-02 to 2022-01. this replaces mpv-1.dll with mpv-2.dll, and I set the installer to delete the old '1'. if you extract, you can delete the old '1' yourself, but things seems fine with both. in any case, let me know if you have any trouble!
    Updated the windows build to use sqlite 3.37.2, the sqlite3 in the db dir is also updated
    The deleted files system now neatly cleans up old file deletion reasons on file import and file undelete
    Cleared out some old thumbnail generation code, including deleting an old and now obselete optimisation where too-large thumbs were scaled down to make new thumbs rather than revisiting source. since our thumb situation is more complicated now, this is gone in favour of nicer quality thumbs and simpler code
    Fixed up some upcoming database maintenance code in my new modules
    Updated and cleaned the code in the old wx-converted checkboxlist and replaced some awkward old access routines
    Cleared out some old HTA archive code

(https://s26.postimg.cc/fmlbof0jd/screenshot_1213.png)
The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

Freeware

Whats new:>>

    Added : Option in the HTML export to save the album images in the export location.
    Added : Program settings option to increase the grid row height.
    Added : "SlotNo" in the import wizard fields.
    Added : Ability to import tracks for all mediums in the Web search > Add to saved album.
    Fixed : Some minor bugs.

Changelog

    Misc:

    fixed the recent problem with drag and dropping thumbnails to a level below the top row of pages. sorry for the trouble!
    fixed a bug where the client would not load results sorting by 'import time' when the search file domain was a single deleted file domain
    fixed a list display bug in the edit page parser dialog when a subsidiary page parser has two complicated string-match based content parsers
    collections now sort by modified time, using the largest known modified time in their collection
    added sqlite3.exe console back into the windows build--sorry, it was missing since the github build changeover!
    added a note to the help about backing up when tight on space, which I will repeat here: the sqlite database files are very compressible (70GB->17GB on default 7zip settings!), so if you need more space on your backup drive, this is a good way to reclaim it

    Command palette:

    a user has written a cool 'command palette' for the program! it brings up a type-and-search interface to navigate to pages or menu entries.
    I have integrated his first version and set the default shortcut to Ctrl+P. users who update will get this shortcut if they have nothing else on Ctrl+P on 'main window' set. if you prefer Ctrl+K or anything else, you can change it under file->shortcuts->the main window
    regular users will get a page list they can search and select, advanced users will also get the (potentially dangerous) full scan of the menubar and current thumbnail right-click menu. I will be polishing this latter feature in future to filter out big maintenance jobs and show checkbox status and similar, so if you are advanced, please be careful for now
    try it out, and let me know how it goes. the underlying widget is neat, and I can change its behaviour and extend it significantly

    (Mostly advanced) deleted file improvements:

    files that have been deleted from a local file domain are now aware of their file deletion reason. this is visible in the right-click menu of thumb or media canvas
    the advanced file deletion dialog now initialises using this stored reason. if all pending deletees have the same existing reason stored, it will display it, and if they are all set but differ, this will be noted and an option to not alter them is also available. this will come up later in niche advanced situations with mutiple file services
    reversing a recent change, local file deletion reasons are no longer cleared on undelete or (re)import. they'll now hang around invisibly and initialise any future advanced file deletion dialog
    updated the thumbnail and canvas undelete mechanism to handle multiple services. now, if the files are deleted in more than one domain, you will be asked to multiple-select which you wish to undelete for. if there is only one eligible undelete service, the process remains unchanged--you'll just get a yes/no confirmation if the 'confirm trash' option is set
    misc multiple local file services code conversion work

Changelog

    Command palette:

    The guy who put the command pallete together has fixed a 'show palette' bug some people encountered (issue #1060)
    He also added mouse support!
    He added support to show checkable menu items too, and I integrated this for the menubar (lightning bolt icon) items
    I added a line to the default QSS that I think fixes the odd icon/text background colours some users saw in the command palette

    Misc:

    File archive times are now recorded in the background. there's no load/search/sort yet, but this will be added in future
    Under 'manage shortcuts', there is a new checkbox to rename left- and right-click to primary- and secondary- in the shortcuts UI. if you have a flipped mouse or any other odd situation, try it out
    If a file storage location does not have enough free disk space for a file, or if it just has <100MB generally, the client now throws up a popup to say what happened specifically with instructions to shut down and fix now and automatically pauses subscriptions, paged file import queues, and import folders. this test occurs before the attempt to copy the file into place. free space isn't actually checked over and over, it is cached for up to an hour depending on the last free space amount
    This 'paused all regular imports' mode is also now fired any time any simple file-add action fails to copy. at this stage, we are talking 'device disconnected' and 'device failed' style errors, so might as well pause everything just to be careful
    When the downloader hits a post url that spawns several subsidiary downloads (for instance on pixiv and artstation when you have a multi-file post), the status of that parent post is now 'completed', a new status to represent 'good, but not direct file'. new download queues will then present '3N' and '3 successful' summary counts that actually correspond to number of files rather than number of successful items
    Pages now give a concise 'summary name' of 'name - num_files - import progress' (it also eli...des for longer names) for menus and the new command palette, which unlike the older status-bar-based strings are always available and will stop clients with many pages becoming multi-wide-column-menu-hell
    Improved apng parsing. hydrus can now detect that pngs are actually apngs for (hopefully) all types of valid apng. it turns out some weird apngs have some additional header data, but I wrote a new chunk parser that should figure it all out
    With luck, users who have window focus issues when closing a child window (e.g. close review services, the main gui does not get focus back), should now see that happen (issue #1063). this may need some more work, so let me know
    The session weight count in the 'pages' menu now updates on any add thumbs, remove thumbs, or thumbnail panel swap. this should be fast all the time, and buffer nicely if it is ever overwhelmed, but let me know if you have a madlad session and get significant new lag when you watch a downloader bring in new files
    A user came up with a clever idea to efficiently target regenerations for the recent fix to pixel duplicate calculations for images with opaque alpha channels, so this week I will queue up some pixel hash regeneration. it does not fix every file with an opaque alpha channel, but it should help out. it also shouldn't take all that long to clear this queue out. lastly, I renamed that file maintenance job from 'calculate file pixel hash' to 'regenerate pixel duplicate data'
    The various duplicate system actions on thumbnails now specify the number of files being acted on in the yes/no dialog
    Fixed a bug when searching in complicated multi-file-service domains on a client that has been on for a long time (some data used here was being reset in regular db maintenance)
    Fixed a bug where for very unlucky byte sizes, for instance 188213746, the client was flipping between two different output values (e.g. 179MB/180MB) on subsequent calls (issue #1068)
    After some user profiles and experimental testing, rebalanced some optimisations in sibling and parent calculation. fingers crossed, some larger sibling groups with worst-case numbers should calculate more efficiently
    If sibling/parent calculation hits a heavy bump and takes a really long time to do a job during 'normal' time, the whole system now takes a much longer break (half an hour) before continuing

    Boring stuff:

    The delete dialog has basic multiple local file service support ready for that expansion. it no longer refers to the old static 'my files' service identifier. I think it will need some user-friendly more polish once that feature is in
    The 'migrate tags' dialog's file service filtering now supports n local file services, and 'all local files'
    Updated the build scripts to force windows server 2019 (and macos-11). github is rolling out windows 2022 as the new latest, and there's a couple of things to iron out first on our end. this is probably going to happen this year though, along with Qt6 and python 3.9, which will all mean end of life for windows 7 in our built hydrus release
    Removed the spare platform-specific github workflow scripts from the static folder--I wanted these as a sort of backup, but they never proved useful and needed to be synced on all changes

    New help docs:

    The hydrus help is now built from markup using MkDocs! it now looks nicer and has search and automatically generated tables of contents and so on. please check it out. a user converted all my old handwritten html to markup and figured out a migration process. thank you very much to this user.
    The help has pretty much the same structure, but online it has moved up a directory from https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/help to https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus. all the old links should redirect in any case, so it isn't a big deal, but I have updated the various places in the program and my social media that have direct links. let me know if you have any trouble
    If you run from source and want a local copy of the help, you can build your own as here: https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/about_docs.html . it is super simple, it just takes one extra step. Or just download and extract one of the archive builds
    If you run from source, hit help->open help, and don't have help built, the client now gives you a dialog to open the online help or see the guide to build your help
    The help got another round of updates in the second week, some fixed URLs and things and the start of the integration of the 'simple help' written by a user
    I added a screenshot and a bit more text to the 'backing up' help to show how to set up FreeFileSync for a good simple backup
    I added a list of some quick links back in to the main index page of the help
    I wrote an unlinked 'after_distaster' page for the help that collects my 'ok we finished recovering your broken database, now use your pain to maintain a backup in future' spiel, which I will point people to in future

    Misc:

    Fixed a bug where changes to the search space in a duplicate filter page were not sticking after the first time they were changed. this was related to a recent 'does page have changes?' optimisation--it was giving a false negative for this page type (issue #1079)
    Fixed a bug when searching for both 'media' and 'preview' view count/viewtime simultaneously (issue #1089, issue #1090)
    Added support for audio-only mp4 files. these would previously generally fail, sometimes be read as m4a. all m4as are scheduled for a metadata regen scan
    Improved some mpeg-4 container parsing to better differentiate these types
    Now we have great apng detection, all pngs with apparent 'bitrate' over 0.85 bits/pixel will be scheduled for an 'is this actually an apng?' scan. this 0.85 isn't a perfect number and won't find extremely well-compressed pixel apngs, but it covers a good amount without causing a metadata regen for every png we own
    System:hash now supports 'is' and 'is not', if you want to, say, exclude a list of hashes from a search
    Fixed some 'is not' parsing in the system predicate parser
    When you drag and drop a thumbnail to export it from the program, the preview media viewer now pauses that file (just as the full media viewer does) rather than clears it
    When you change the page away while previewing media with duration, the client now remembers if you were paused or playing and restores that state when you return to that page
    Folded in a new and improved Deviant Art page parser written by a user. it should be better about getting the highest quality image in unusual situations
    Running a search with a large file pool and multiple negated tags, negated namespaces, and/or negated wildcards should be significantly faster. an optimisation that was previously repeated for each negated tag search is now performed for all of them as a group with a little inter-job overhead added. should make '(big) system:inbox -character x, -character y, -character z' like lightning compared to before
    Added a 'unless namespace is a number' to 'tag presentation' options, which will show the full tag for tags like '16:9' when you have 'show namespaces' unticked
    Altered a path normalisation check when you add a file or thumbnail location in 'migrate database'--if it fails to normalise symlinks, it now just gives a warning and lets you continue. fingers crossed, this permits rclone mounts for file storage (issue #1084)
    When a 'check for missing/invalid file' maintenance job runs, it now prints all the hashes of missing or invalid files to a nice simple newline-separated list .txt in the error directory. this is an easy to work with hash record, useful for later recovery
    Fixed numerous instances where logs and texts I was writing could create too many newline characters on Windows. it was confusing some reader software and showing as double-spaced taglists and similar for exported sidecar files and profile logs
    I think I fixed a bug, when crawling for file paths, where on Windows some network file paths were being detected incorrectly as directories and causing parse errors
    Fixed a broken command in the release build so the windows installer executable should correctly get 'v475' as its version metadata (previously this was blank), which should help some software managers that use this info to decide to do updates (issue #1071)

    Some cleanup:

    Replaced last instances of EVT_CLOSE wx wrapper with proper Qt code
    Did a heap of very minor code cleanup jobs all across the program, mostly just to get into pycharm
    Clarified the help text in options->external programs regarding %path% variable

    Pycharm:

    As a side note, I finally moved from my jank old WingIDE IDE to PyCharm in this release. I am overall happy with it--it is clearly very powerful and customisable--but adjusting after about ten or twelve years of Wing was a bit awkward. I am very much a person of habit, and it will take me a little while to get fully used to the new shortcuts and UI and so on, but PyCharm does everything that is critical for me, supports many modern coding concepts, and will work well as we move to python 3.9 and beyond

Changelog

    domain modified times:

    the downloader now saves the 'source time' (or, if none was parsed, 'creation time') for each file import object to the database when a file import is completed. separate timestamps are tracked for every domain you download from, and a file's number can update to an earlier time if a new one comes in for that domain
    I overhauled how hydrus stores timestamps in each media object and added these domain timestamps to it. now, when you see 'modified time', it is the minimum of the file modified time and all recorded domain modified times. this aggregated modfified time works for sort in UI and when sorting before applying system:limit, and it also works for system:modified time search. the search may be slow in some situations--let me know
    I also added the very recent 'archived' timestamps into this new object and added sort for archived time too. 'archived 3 minutes ago' style text will appear in thumbnail right-click menus and the media viewer top status text
    in future, I will add search for archive time; more display, search, and sort for modified time (for specific domains); and also figure out a dialog so you can manually edit these timestamps in case of problems
    I also expect to write an optional 'fill in dummy data' routine for the archived timestamps for files archived before I started tracking these timestamps. something like 'for all archived files, put in an archive time 20% between import time and now', but maybe there is a better way of doing it, let me know if you have any ideas. we'll only get one shot at this, so maybe we can do a better estimate with closer analysis
    in the longer future, I expect import/export support for this data and maintenance routines to retroactively populate the domain data based on hitting up known urls again, so all us long-time users can backfill in nicer post times for all our downloaded files

    searching tags on client api:

    a user has helped me out by writing autocomplete tag search for the client api, under /add_tags/search_tags. I normally do not accept pull requests like this, but the guy did a great job and I have not been able to fit this in myself despite wanting it a lot
    I added some bells and whistles--py 3.8 support, tag sorting, filtering results according to any api permissions, and some unit tests
    at the moment, it searches the 'storage' domain that you see in a manage tags dialog, i.e. without siblings collapsed. I can and will expand it to support more options in future. please give it a go and let me know what you think
    client api version is now 26

    misc:

    when you edit something in a multi-column list, I think I have updated every single one so the selection is preserved through the edit. annoyingly and confusingly on most of the old lists, for instance subscriptions, the 'ghost' of the selection focus would bump up one position after an edit. now it should stay the same even if you rename etc... and if you have multiple selected/edited
    I think I fixed a bug in the selected files taglist where, in some combination of changing the tag service of the page and then loading up a favourite search, the taglist could get stuck on the previous tag domain. typically this would look as if the page's taglist had nothing in it no matter what files were selected
    if you set some files as 'alternates' when they are already 'duplicates', this now works (previously it did nothing). the non-kings of the group will be extracted from the duplicate group and applied as new alts
    added a 'BUGFIX' checkbox to 'gui pages' options page that forces a 'hide page' signal to the current page when creating a new page. we'll see if this patches a weird error or if more work is needed
    added some protections against viewing files when the image/video file has (incorrectly) 0 width or height
    added support for viewing non-image/video files in the duplicate filter. there are advanced ways to get unusual files in here, and until now a pdf or something would throw an error about having 0 width

Changelog


    Misc:

    The network engine now parses the 'last-modified' response header for raw files. if this time is earlier than any parsed source time, it is used as the source time and saved to the new 'domain modified time' system. this provides decent post time parsing for a bunch of sites by default, which will also help for subscription timing and similar
    To get better apng duration, updated the apng parser to count up every frame duration separately. previously, if ffmpeg couldn't figure it out, I was just defaulting to 24 fps and estimating. now it is calculated properly, and for variable framerate apngs too. all apngs are scheduled for a metadata regen this week. thanks to the user who submitted some long apngs where this problem was apparent
    Fixed a bug in the network engine filter that figures out url class precedence. url classes with more parameters were being accidentally sorted above those with more path components, which was messing with some url class matching and automatic parser linking
    Improved the message when an url class fails to match because the given url has too few path components
    Fixed a time delta display bug where it could say '2 years, 12 months' and similar, which was due to a rounding issue on 30 day months and the, for example, 362nd day of the year
    Fixed a little bug where if you forced an archive action on an already archived file, that file would appear to get a fake newer archived timestamp in UI until you restarted
    Updated the default nitter parsers to pull a creator tag. this seemed to not have been actually done when previously thought
    The image renderer now handles certain broken files better, including files truncated to 0 size by disk problem. a proper error popup is made, and file integrity and rescan jobs are scheduled

    File history chart:

    For a long time, a user has been generating some cool charts on file history (how many files you've had in your db over time, how many were deleted, etc...) in matplotlib. you may have run his script before on your own database. we've been talking a while about integrating it into the client, and this week I finally got around to it and implemented it in QtCharts. please check out the new 'view file history' underneath Mr Bones's entry in the help menu. I would like to do more in this area, and now I have learned a little more about QtCharts I'd like to revisit and polish up my old bandwidth charts and think more about drawing some normal curves and so on of other interesting data. let me know what you think!
    I did brush up a couple things with the bandwidth bar chart already, improving date display and the y axis label format

    Client api:

    A user has written several expansions for the client api. I really appreciate the work
    The client api now has note support! there is a new 'add notes' permission, 'include_notes' parameter in 'file_metadata' to fetch notes, and 'set_notes' and 'delete_notes' POST commands
    The system predicate parser now supports note system preds
    Hydrus now supports bigger GET requests, up to 2 megabytes total length (which will help if you are sending a big json search object via GET)
    And the client api now supports CBOR as an alternate to JSON, if requested (via content-type header for POST, 'cbor' arg for GET). CBOR is basically a compressed byte-friendly version of JSON that works a bit faster and is more accessible in some lower level languages
    Cbor2 is now in the requirements.txt(s), and about->help shows it too
    I added a little api help on CBOR
    I integrated the guy's unit tests for the new notes support into the main hydrus test suite
    The client api version is now 27
    I added links to the client api help to this new list of hydrus-related projects on github, which was helpfully compiled by another user: https://github.com/stars/hydrusnetwork/lists/hydrus-related-projects

If you frequently work with large numbers of video files, you probably know how difficult it is to find what you need without watching every single clip. Thankfully, there are various types of applications that can help you out.

Scene Explorer is one of them, a fairly simple utility that generates thumbnails for every video in a directory, making it easier for you to see their contents without actually playing them.

Changelog


    Misc:

    If a file note text is crazy and can't be displayed, this is now handled and the best visual approximation is displayed (and saved back on ok) instead
    Fixed an error in the cloudflare problem detection calls for the newer versions of cloudscraper (>=1.2.60) while maintaining support for the older versions. fingers crossed, we also shouldn't repeat this specific error if they refactor again

    File history chart updates:

    Fixed the 'inbox' line in file history, which has to be calculated in an odd way and was not counting on file imports adding to the inbox
    The file history chart now expands its y axis range to show all data even if deleted_files is huge. we'll see how nice this actually is IRL
    Bumped the file history resolution up from 1,000 to 2,000 steps
    The y axis should now show localised numbers, 5,000 instead of 5000, but the method by which this occurs involves fox tongues and the breath of a slighted widow, so it may just not work for some machines

    Cleanup, mostly file location stuff:

    I believe I have replaced all the remaining surplus static 'my files' references with code compatible with multiple local file services. when I add the capability to create new local file services, there now won't be a problem trying to display thumbnails or generate menu actions etc... if they aren't in 'my files'
    Pulled the autocomplete dropdown file domain button code out to its own class and refactored it and the multiple location context panel to their own file
    Added a 'default file location' option to 'files and trash' page, and a bunch of dialogs (e.g. the search panel when you make a new export folder) and similar now pull it to initialise. for most users this will stay 'my files' forever, but when we hit multiple local file services, it may want to change
    The file domain override options in 'manage tag display and search' now work on the new location system and support multple file services
    In downloaders, when highlighting, a database job that does the 'show files' filter (e.g. to include those in trash or not) now works on the new location context system and will handle files that will be imported to places other than my files
    Refactored client api file service parsing
    Refactored client api hashes parsing
    Cleaned a whole heap of misc location code
    Cleaned misc basic code across hydrus and client constant files
    Gave 'you don't want the server' help page a very quick pass

    Client api:

    In prep for multiple local file services, delete_files now takes an optional file_service_key or file_service_name. by default, it now deletes from all appropriate local services, so behaviour is unchanged from before without the parameter if you just want to delete m8
    Undelete files is the same. when we have multiple local file services, an undelete without a file service will undelete to all locations that have a delete record
    Delete_files also now takes an optional 'reason' parameter
    The 'set_notes' command now checks the type of the notes Object. it obviously has to be string-to-string
    The 'get_thumbnail' command should now never 404. if you ask for a pdf thumb, it gives the pdf default thumb, and if there is no thumb for whatever reason, you get the hydrus fallback thumbnail. just like in the client itself
    Updated client api help to talk about these
    Updated the unit tests to handle them too
    Did a pass over the client api help to unify indent style and fix other small formatting issues
    Client api version is now 28

    misc:

    when shift-selecting some thumbnails, you can now reverse the direction of the select and what you just selected will be deselected, basically a full undo (issue #1105)
    when ctrl-selecting thumbnails, if you add to the selection, the file you click is now focused and always previewed (previously this only happened if there was no focused file already). this is related to the shift-select logic above, but it may be annoying when making a big ctrl-selection of videos etc.. so let me know and I can make this more clever if needed
    added file sort 'file->hash', which sorts pseudorandomly but repeatably. it sounds not super clever, but it will be useful for certain comparison operations across clients
    when you hit 'copy->hash' on a file right-click, it now shows the sha256 hash for quick review
    in the duplicate filter, the zoom locking tech now works better™ when one of the pair is portrait and the other landscape. it now tries to select either width or height to lock both when going AB and BA. it also chooses the 'better' of width or height by choosing the zoom that'll change the size less radically. previously, it could do width on AB and height on BA, which lead to a variety of odd situations. there are probably still some issues here, most likely when one of the files almost exactly fills the whole canvas, so let me know how you get on
    webps with transparency should now load correct! previously they were going crazy in the transparent area. all webps are scheduled a thumbnail regen this week
    when import folders run, the count on their progress bar now ignores previous failed and ignored entries. it should always start 0, like 0/100, rather than 20/120 etc...
    when import folders run, any imports where the status type is set to 'leave the file alone' is now still scanned at the end of a job. if the path does not exist any more, it is removed from the import list
    fixed a typo bug in the recent delete code cleanup that meant 'delete files after export' after a manual export was only working on the last file in the selection. sorry for the trouble!
    the delete files dialog now starts with keyboard focus on the action radiobox (it was defaulting to ok button since I added the recent panel disable tech)
    if a network job has a connection error or serverside bandwidth block and then waits before retrying, it now checks if all network jobs have just been paused and will not reattempt the connection if so (issue #1095)
    fixed a bug in thumbnail fallback rendering
    fixed another problem with cloudscraper's new method names. it should work for users still on an old version
    wrote a little 'extract version' sql and bat file for the db folder that simply pull the version from the client.db file in the same directory. I removed the extract options/subscriptions sql scripts since they are super old and out of date, but this general system may return in future

    file history chart:

    added 'archive' line to the file history chart. this isn't exactly (current_count - inbox_count), but it pretty much is
    added a 'show deleted' checkbox to the file history chart. it will recalculate the y axis range on click, so if you have loads of deleted files, you can now hide them to see current better
    improved the way data is aggregated in the file history chart. diagonal lines should be reduced during any periods of client import-inactivity, and spikes should show better
    also bumped the number of steps up to 8,000, so it should look nice maximised on a 4k
    the file history chart now remembers its last size and position--it has an entry under options->gui

    client api:

    thanks to a user, the Client API now accepts any file_id, file_ids, hash, or hashes as arguments in any place where you need to specify a file or files
    like 'return_hashes', the 'search_files' command in the Client API now takes an optional 'return_file_ids' parameter, default true, to turn off the file ids if you only want hashes
    added 'only_return_basic_information' parameter, default false, to 'get_metadata' call, which is fast for first-time requests (it is slim but not well cached) and just delivers the basics like resolution and file size
    added unit tests and updated the help to reflect the above
    client api version is now 29
    help
    split up the 'more files' help section into 'powerful searching' and 'exporting files', both still under the 'next steps' section
    moved the semi-advanced 'OR' section from 'tags' to 'searching'
    brushed up misc help
    a couple of users added some misc help updates too, thank you!
    misc boring cleanup
    cleaned up an old wx label patch
    cleaned up an old wx system colour patch

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

    File notes and media viewer hover windows:

    File notes are now shown on the media viewer! this is a first version, pretty ugly, and may have font layout bugs for some systems, but it works. they hang just below the top-right hover, both in the canvas background and with their own hover if you mouseover. clicking on any note will open 'edit notes' on that note
    The duplicate filter's always-on hover should slide out of the way when there are many notes
    Furthermore, I rewrote the backend of hover windows. they are now embedded into the media viewer rather than being separate frameless toolbar windows. this should relieve several problems different users had--for instance, if you click a hover, you now no longer lose focus on the main media viewer window. I hacked some of this to get it to work, but along the way I undid three other hacks, so overall it should be better. please let me know how this works for you!
    Fixed a long time hover window positioning bug where the top-right window would sometimes pop in for a frame the first time you moved the mouse to the top middle before repositioning and hiding itself again
    Removed the 'notes' icon from the top right hover window
    Refactored a bunch of canvas background code

    Client api:

    Search_files/get_thumbnail now returns image/jpeg or image/png Content-Type. it should be super fast, but let me know if it lags after 3k thumbs or something
    You can now ask for CBOR or JSON specifically by using the 'Accept' request header, regardless of your own request Content-Type (issue #1110)
    If you send or ask for CBOR but it is not available for that client, you now get a new 'Not Acceptable' 406 response (previously it would 500 or 200 but in JSON)
    Updated the help regarding the above and wrote some unit tests to check CBOR/JSON requests and responses
    Client api version is now 30

    Misc:

    Added a link to 'Hyshare', at https://github.com/floogulinc/hyshare, to the Client API help. it is a neat way to share galleries with friends, just like the the old 'local booru'
    Building on last week's shift-select improvement, I tweaked it and shift-select and ctrl-select are back to not setting the preview focus. you can ctrl-click a bunch of vids in quick silence again
    The menu on the 'file log' button is now attached to the downloader page lists and the menu when you right-click on the file log panel. you can now access these actions without having to highlight a big query
    The same is also true of the search/check log!
    When you select a new downloader in the gallery download page, the keyboard focus now moves immediately to the query text input box
    Tweaked the zoom locking code in the duplicate filter again. the 'don't lock that way if there is spillover' test, which is meant to stop garbage site banners from being hidden just offscreen, is much more strict. it now only cares about 10% or so spillover, assuming that with a large 'B' the spillover will be obvious. this should improve some odd zoom locking situations where the first pair change was ok and the rest were weird
    If you exit the client before the first session loads (either it is really huge or a problem breaks/delays your boot) the client will not save any 'last/exit session' (previously, it was saving empty here, requiring inconvenient load from a backup)
    If you have a really really huge session, the client is now more careful about not booting delayed background tasks like subscriptions until the session is in place
    On 'migrate database', the thumbnail size estimate now has a min-max range and a tooltip to clarify that it is an estimate
    Fixed a bug in the new 'sort by file hash' pre-sort when applying system:limit

    Fixes and improvements after last week's hover and note work:

    Fixed the text colour behind the top middle hover window
    Stopped clicks on the taglist and hover greyspace being duplicated up to the main canvas (this affected the archive/delete and duplicate filter shortcuts)
    Fixed the background colour of the hover windows when using non-default stylesheets
    Fixed the notes hover window--after having shown some notes--could then lurk in the top-left corner when it should have been hidden completely
    Cleaned up some old focus test logic that weas used when hovers were separate windows
    Rewrote how each note panel in the new hover is stored. a bunch of sizing and event handling code is less hacked
    Significantly improved the accuracy of the 'how high should the note window be?' calculation, so notes shouldn't spill over so much or have a bunch of greyspace below
    Right- or middle-clicking a note now hides its text. repeat on its name to restore. this should persist through an edit, although it won't be reflected in the background atm. let's see how it works as a simple way to quickly browse a whole stack of big notes
    A new 'notes' option panel lets you choose if you want the text caret to start at the beginning or end of the document when editing
    You can now double-click a note tab in 'edit notes' to rename the note. some styles may let you double-click in note greyspace to create a new note, but not all will handle this (yet)
    As an experiment, all the buttons on the media viewer hover windows now do not take focus when you click them. this should let you, for instance, click a duplicate filter processing button and then use the arrow keys and space to continue to navigate. previously, clicking a button would focus it, and navigation keys would be intercepted to navigate the 'form' of the buttons on the hover window. you can still focus buttons with tab. if this affects you, let me know how this goes!

    Misc:

    Added checkboxes to options->gui pages to control whether ctrl- and shift- selects will highlight media in the preview viewer. you can choose to only do it for files with no duration if you prefer
    The 'advanced mode' tag autocomplete dropdown now has 'OR' and 'OR*' buttons. the former opens a new empty OR search predicate in the edit dialog, the latter opens the advanced text parser as before
    The edit OR predicate panel now starts wider and with the text box having focus
    Hydrus is now more careful about deciding whether to make a png or a jpeg thumbnail. now, only thumbnails that have an alpha channel with interesting data in it are saved to png. everything else is jpeg
    When uploading to a repository, the client will now slow down or speed up depending on how fast things are going. previously it would work on 100 mappings at a time with a forced 0.1s wait, now it can vary between 1-1,000 weight
    Just to be clean, the current files line on the file history chart now initialises at 0 on your first file import time
    Fixed a bug in 'if file is missing, remove record' file maintenance job. if none of the files yet scanned had any urls, it could error out since the 'missing and invalid files' directory was yet to be created
    Linux users who seem to have mpv support yet are set to use the native viewer will get a one-time popup note on update this week just to let them know that mpv is stable on linux now and how to give it a go
    The macOS App now spits out any mpv import errors when you hit help->about, albeit with some different text around it
    I maybe fixed the 'hold shift to not follow a dragged page' tech for some users for whom it did not work, but maybe not
    Thanks to a user, the new website now has a darkmode-compatible hydrus favicon
    All file import options now expose their new 'destination locations' object in a new button in the UI. you can only set one destination for now ('my files', obviously), but when we have multiple local file services, you will be able to set other/multiple destinations here. if you set 'nothing', the dialog will moan at you and stop you from ok-ing it.
    I have updated all import queues and other importing objects in the program to pause their file work with appropriate error messages if their file import options ever has a 'nothing' destination (this could potentially happen if future after a service deletion). there are multiple layers of checks here, including at the final database level
    Misc code cleanup

    Client api:

    Added 'create_new_file_ids' parameter to the 'file_metadata' call. this governs whether the client should make a new database entry and file_id when you ask about hashes it has never seen before. it defaults to false, which is a change on previous behaviour
    Added help talking about this
    Added a unit test to test this
    Added archive timestamp and hash hex sort enum definitions to the 'search_files' client api help
    Client api version is now 31

Changelog

    Misc:

    Fixed the stupid taglist scrolled-click position problem--sorry! I have a new specific weekly test for this, so it shouldn't happen again (issue #1120)
    I made it so middle-clicking on a tag list does a select event again
    The duplicate action options now let you say to archive both files regardless of their current archive status (issue #472)
    The duplicate filter is now hooked into the media prefetch system. as soon as 'A' is displayed, the 'B' file will now be queued to be loaded, so with luck you will see very little flicker on the first transition from A->B.
    I updated the duplicate filter's queue to store more information and added the next pair to the new prefetch queue, so when you action a pair, the A of the next pair should also load up quickly
    Boosted the default sizes of the thumbnail and image caches up to 32MB and 384MB (from 25/150) and gave them nicer 'bytes quantity' widgets in the options panel
    When popup windows show network jobs, they now have delayed hide. with luck, this will make subscriptions more stable in height, less flickering as jobs are loaded and unloaded
    Reduced the extremes of the new auto-throttled pending upload. it will now change speed slower, on less strict of a schedule, and won't go as fast or slow max
    The text colour of hyperlinks across the program, most significantly in the top-right media hover window, can now be customised in QSS. I have set some ok defaults for all the QSS styles that come with the client, if you have a custom QSS, check out my default to see what you need to do. also hyperlinks are no longer underlined and you can't 'select' their text with the mouse any more (this was a weird rich-text flag)
    The client api and local booru now have a checkbox in their manage services panel for 'normie-friendly welcome page', which switches the default ascii art for an alternate
    Fixed an issue with the hydrus server not explicitly saying it is utf-8 when rendering html
    May have fixed some issues with autocomplete dropdowns getting hung up in the wrong position and not fixing themselves until parent resize event or similar

    Code cleanup:

    About 80KB of code moved out of the main ClientDB.py file:

    Refactored all combined files display mappings cache code from the code database to a new database module
    Refactored all combined files storage mappings cache code from the code database to a new database module
    Refactored all specific storage mappings cache code from the code database to a new database module
    More misc refactoring of tag count estimate, tag search, and other code down to modules
    Hooked up specific display mappings cache to the repair system correctly--it had been left unregistered by accident
    Some misc duplicate action options code cleanup
    Migrated some ancient pause states--repository, subscriptions, import&export folders--to the newer options structure
    Migrated the image and thumbnail cache sizes to the newer options structure
    Removed some ancient db and dialog code from the retired dumper system

Changelog

    Multiple local file services:

    The multiple local file services feature is ready for advanced users to test out! it lets you have more than one 'my files' service to store things, which will give us some neat privacy and management tools in future. there is no nice help for this feature yet, and the UI is still a little non-user-friendly, so please do not try it out unless you have been following it. and, while this has worked great in all testing, I generally do not recommend it for heavy use on a real client either, just in case something does go wrong. with those caveats, hit up manage services in advanced mode, and you can now add new 'local file domain' services. it is possible to search, import to, and migrate files between these and everything basically works. I need to do more UI work to make it clear what is going on (for instance, I think we'll figure out custom icons or similar to show where files are), and some more search tech, and write up proper help, and figure out easy client merging so users can combine legacy clients, but please feel free to experiment wildly on a fresh client or carefully on your existing one
    If you have more than one local file service, a new 'files' or 'local services' menu on thumbnail right-click handles duplicating and moving across local services. these actions will preserve original import times (e.g. if you move from A to B and then back to A), so they should be generally non-destructive, but we may want to add some advanced tools in future. let me know how this part goes--I think we'll probably want a different status than 'deleted from A' when you just move A->B, so as not to interfere with some advanced queries, but only IRL testing will show it
    If you have a 'file import options' that imports files to multiple local services but the file import is 'already in db', the file import job will now examine if and where the file is still needed and send content update calls to fill in the gaps
    The advanced delete files dialog now gives a new 'delete from all and send to trash' option if the file is in multiple local file domains
    The advanced delete files dialog now fully supports file repositories
    Cleaned up some logic on the 'remember action' option of the advanced file deletion dialog. it also supports remembering specific file domains, not just the clever commands like 'delete and leave no record'. also this dialog no longer places the 'suggested' file service at the top of the radio button list--instead it selects that 'suggested' if there is no 'remember action' initial selection applicable. the suggested file service is now also set by the underlying thumbnail grid or media canvas if it has a simple one-service location context
    The normal 'non-advanced' delete files dialog now supports files that are in multiple local file services. it will show a part of the advanced dialog to let you choose where to delete from

    Misc:

    Thanks to user submissions, there is a bit more help docs work--for file search, and for some neat new 'mermaid' svg diagrams in siblings/parents, which are automatically generated from a markup and easy to edit
    With the new easy-to-edit mermaid diagrams, I updated the unhelpful and honestly cringe examples in the siblings and parents help to reflect real world PTR data and brushed up all the text in the top sections
    Just a small thing--the 'pages' menu and the page picker dialog now both say 'file search' to refer to a page that searches files. previously, 'search' or 'files' was used in different places
    Completely rewrote the queue code behind the duplicate filter. an ancient bad idea is now replaced with something that will be easier to work with in future
    You can now go 'back' in the duplicate filter even when you have only done skips so far
    The 'index string' of duplicate filters, where it says 53/100, now also says the number of decisions made
    Fixed some small edge case bugs in duplicate filter forward/backward move logic, and fixed the recent problem with going back after certain decisions
    Updated the default nijie.info parser to grab video (issue #1113)
    Added in a user fix to the deviant art parser
    Added user-made Mega URL Classes. hydrus won't support Mega for a long while, but it can recognise and categorise these URLs now, presenting them in the media viewer if you want to open them externally
    Fixed Exif image rotation for images that also have ICC Profiles. thanks to the user who provided great test images here (issue #1124)
    Hitting F5 or otherwise saying 'refresh' explicitly will now turn a search page that is currently in 'searching paused' to 'searching immediately'. previously it silently did nothing
    The 'current file info' in the media window's top hover and the status bar of the main window now ignores Deletion reason, and also file modified date if it is not substantially different from another timestamp already stated. this data can still be seen on the file's right-click menu's expanded info lines off the top entry. also, as a small cleanup, it now says 'modified' and 'archived' instead of 'file modified/archived', just to save some more space
    Like the above 'show if interesting' check for modified date, that list of file info texts now includes the actual import time if it is different than other timestamps. (for instance, if you migrate it from one service to another some time after import)
    Fixed a sort error notification in the edit parser dialog when you have two duplicate subsidiary parsers that both have vetoes
    Fixed the new media viewer note display for PyQt5
    Fixed a rare frame-duration-lookup problem when loading certain gifs into the media viewer

    Boring code cleanup:

    Cleaned up search signalling UI code, a couple of minor bugs with 'searching immediately' sometimes not saving right should be fixed
    The 'repository updates' domain now has a different service type. it is now a 'local update file domain' rather than a 'local file domain', which is just an enum change but marks it as different to the regular media domains. some code is cleaned up as a result
    Renamed the terms in some old media filtering code to make it more compatible with multiple local file services
    Brushed up some delete code to handle multiple local file services better
    Cleaned up more behind the scenes of the delete files dialog
    Refactored ClientGUIApplicationCommand to the widgets module
    Wrote a new ApplicationCommandProcessor Mixin class for all UI elements that process commands. it is now used across the program and will grow in responsibility in future to unify some things here
    The media viewer hover windows now send their application commands through Qt signals rather than the old pubsub system
    In a bunch of places across the program, renamed 'remote' to 'not local' in file status contexts--this tends to make more sense to people at out the gate
    Misc little syntax cleanup

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

Changelog

    Misc:

    Fixed the simple delete files dialog for trashed files. due to a logical oversight, the simple version was not testing 'trashed' status and so didn't see anything to permanently delete and would immediately dump out. now it shows the option for trashed files again, and if the selection includes trash and non-trash, it shows multiple options
    Fixed an error in the 'show next pair' logic of the new duplicate filter queue where if it needed to auto-skip through the end of the current batch and load up the next batch (issues #1139, #1143)
    A new setting on options->media now lets you set the scanbar to be small and simple instead of hidden when the mouse is moved away. I liked this so much personally it is now the default for all users. try it out!
    The media viewer's taglist hover window will now never send a mouse wheel event up to the media viewer canvas (so scrolling the tags won't accidentally do previous/next if you hit the end of the list scrollbar)
    I think I have fixed the bug where going on the media viewer from borderless fullscreen to a regular window would not trigger a media container resize if the media perfectly fitted the ratio of the fullscreen monitor!
    The system tray icon now has minimise/restore entries
    To reduce confusion, when a content parser vetoes, it now prepends the file import 'note' with 'veto: '
    The 'clear service info cache' job under database->regenerate is renamed to 'service info numbers' and now has a service selector so you can, let's say, regen your miscounted 'number of files in trash' count without triggering a complete recount of every single mapping on the PTR the next time you open review services
    Hydrus now recognises most (and maybe all) windows executables so it can discard them from imports confidently. a user discovered an interesting exe with embedded audio that ffmpeg was seeing as an mp3--this no longer occurs
    The 'edit string conversion step' dialog now saves a new default (which is used on 'add' events) every time you ok it. 'append extra text' is no longer the universal default!
    The 'edit tag rule' dialog in the parsing system now starts with the tag name field focused
    Updated 'getting started/installing' help to talk more about mpv on Linux. the 'libgmodule' problem seems to have a solid fix now, which is properly written out there. thanks to the users who figured all this out and provided feedback

    Multiple local file services:

    The media viewer menu now offers add/move actions just like the thumb grid
    Added a new shortcut action that lets you specify add/move jobs. it is available in the media shortcut set and will work in the thumbnail grid and the media viewer
    Add/move is now nicer in edge cases. files are filtered better to ensure only local media files end up in a job (e.g. if you were to try to move files out of the repository update domain using a shortcut), and 'add' commands from trashed files are naturally and silently converted to a pure undelete

    Boring code cleanup:

    Refactored the UI side of multiple local file services add/move commands. various functions to select, filter, and question the user on actions are now pulled to a separate simple module where other parts of the UI can also access them, and there is now just one isolated pipeline for file service add/move content updates.
    If a 'move' job is started without a source service and multiple services could apply, the main routine will now ask the user which to use using a selector that shows how many files each choice will affect
    Also rewrote the add/move menu population code, fixed a couple little issues, and refactored it to a module the media viewer canvas can use
    Wrote a new menu builder that can place a list of items either as a single item (if the list is length 1), or make a submenu if there are more. it drives the new add/move commands and now the behind the scenes of all other service-based menu population

    multiple local file services:

    multiple local file services are now available for everyone! you no longer need to be in advanced mode to create them. all are welcome, but in terms of skill level, I most recommend it for users who are comfortable with tag siblings and parents
    the tl;dr: you can now have more than one 'my files', which lets you put things in isolated locations
    I wrote a proper help document on multiple local file services--what they are, how they work, my recommendations, and a bit of extra info about hydrus file search in general, right here: https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/advanced_multiple_local_file_services.html
    file searches in 'multiple locations' on large clients are now massively faster in almost all situations. the only place multiple location searches are still slow is whenever the duplicates system (system:file relationships) comes into play

    misc:

    in the page tab menu, you can now sort pages by total file size
    the 'force system:limit for all searches' option is moved from the 'speed and memory' to 'search' panel
    when files download from sites, if the raw file is served by cloudflare and has a timestamp radically different to a parsed source time, that CF timestamp is saved under a different domain rather than overwriting the original domain timestamp. this seemed to affect danbooru on about 1 in 10-20 files. note this does not change much at the moment, but when you can see and sort on individual domain modified dates, this should improve the sort
    updated the 'installing' help to talk about bad install locations for the database. network locations are bad, and thanks to user reports, we now know USB drives can be bad if the database is busy when the OS goes to sleep
    if a 'database is malformed' error occurs on boot, the client now recognises it and points the user to 'install_dir/db/help my db is broke.txt' for the next steps

    boring code cleanup:

    another 60KB or so of code pulled out of ClientDB.py:
    created a new database module for url mappings and refactored various fetch and update routines to it
    created a new database module for some rich file metadata and refactored some file filtering, history, and status testing code to it
    created a new database module for file searching and moved all tag-based file searching code to it
    moved several other misc methods down to database modules

Changelog

    This week's release is for advanced users only! I make a big change, and I want to make sure the update is fast and there are no unusual problems before rolling it out to all users.

    All my files:

    The client adds a new virtual file service this week, 'all my files', which is an umbrella covering all your local file domains. if you do not engage the multiple local file services system, you won't see it much, but if you do, you'll now have a convenient tool for saying 'all my stuff' without including trash and repository updates
    It will take a minute or two to generate this new service on update. if you have a client with millions of files, it may take a while
    'all my files' now appears in the file domain selector button on your tag entry box if you have more than one local file domain. selecting this searches the union of all your local file domains with fast and precise count (as opposed to 'multiple locations' of the full union, which will have imprecise counts and be slower). it also does duplicate file work laser-fast (again, unlike 'multiple locations', which is often slow due to UNION complexity)
    'all my files' also appears in review and manage services, very similarly to 'all local files'
    A heap of hacks I instituted when getting multiple local file services ready are now replaced with this clean 'yeah this file is valued and worth looking at' domain. for instance, downloader pages now view files in this way.
    Mr bones and the file history chart also use 'all my files', and are significantly faster to calculate. the chart also excludes repo update files and trash now
    Calls to delete or undelete on 'all my files' (this is mostly Client API and some 'default' situations) will be converted to a blanket 'force send to trash' and 'force undelete all deleted records'
    The 'undelete files?' dialog is now a button selection dialog. it also now has an 'all the above' option when more than one local service may apply, which tells the client to undelete to all services the files have been deleted from
    Updated multiple local file services help to talk a little about the new domain
    Rearranged the sort in a couple of places where the different local file services appear. they should now be: local file domains, all my files, trash, repo updates, all local files
    ADVANCED: the 'presentation import options' under 'file import options' now allows a full-fledged location context using the new multiple local file services system rather than the previous 'in your files(and trash too)' choice. it defaults to the new 'all my files' domain

    Misc:

    Thanks to a user, the 'getting started with downloading' help has had a full pass. if you have had trouble with downloaders, particularly if you are unsure about what file import options are for, or what subscriptions are, please check it out!
    The 'media viewers' shortcut set gets three new zoom actions: 'switch between 100% and max', 'switch between canvas and max', and 'zoom to max' (issue #1141)
    If a media type is set to do 'exact zooms', it will now not exceed the otherwise specified max zoom
    The file sort widget will now preserve ascending/descending status on sort type changes (rather than resetting to default) if the asc/desc strings do not change. so, if you are on 'import time'/'oldest first', and switch to 'archive time', it will now stay on 'oldest' rather than resetting to 'newest'
    The manage tag siblings dialog now tries to automatically break loops for you, just like it will automatically break A->B, A->C conflicts. this works on manual entry or mass import
    The manage tag siblings dialog now shows the stated 'reason' for any pair change (e.g. "AUTO-PETITION TO BREAK LOOP") in the 'note' column
    The 'short' animation scanbar--when your mouse is away--now keeps a short disabled volume button beside it. I found it very annoying how the scan nub would jump a few pixels left/right as this popped up and down, so now it is the same width big and small
    Right-clicking on files when in pages with 'multiple locations' file domains is now much much faster
    The filename tagging dialog now starts with the 'tags for all' focused, and the 'press up/down on empty input' shortcuts are now plugged in, so pressing up/down will change service
    I believe I may have completely eliminated the additional superlag that sometimes occurs when adding or deleting a service. it was a database maintenance routine getting carried away with other outstanding work
    Move/add actions in the new multiple local file system now operate asynchronously and politely, spreading their work time out when the client is busy, and for large jobs they will also make a cancellable progress popup
    Cleaned up how the autocomplete entry sends some of its signals to other parts of the program
    Did some misc help and code edits/refactoring, including brushing up the Windows install section with more advanced options
    Removed the 'hydrus zooms big bad' warning from the 'media' options page. hydrus zooms big good now!

    Some database stuff:

    Tl;dr: database cleans up after itself better now
    Some users have had trouble with database journal files (the 'wal' files in your db directory) on certain clients getting huge after lots of work, multiple GB, and causing the OS a headache if the journal is doing work through a computer sleep. these journals are 'supposed' to checkpoint and clean themselves up naturally, but I think a busy database chokes them. therefore, I have improved the hydrus maintenance this week: 1) the 'journal size limit' PRAGMA, which applies softly after every 30 seconds or so, is now 128MB down from 1GB. 2) databases in PERSIST (rare) mode will now specifically zero out their journal fifteen minutes. 3) databases in WAL mode (the default), in addition to regular PASSIVE checkpointing now every five minutes, will force an additional TRUNCATE checkpoint every fifteen. this should force a regular full flush and maybe help some other problems like gigantic memory bloat the same users sometimes saw. if you are a very advanced user and do active debug on the database while hydrus is using it, please note this new TRUNCATE command is aggressive and may block itself or you inconveniently. let me know how you get on!
    Moved the recent 'be careful of usb drives' section in 'installing' help to 'help my db is broke.txt'. it is very likely this problem was related to the above WAL stuff, and it was not just usb drives, I rewrote it as generalised help for anyone who gets 'delayed write failed' errors at the OS level
    Massively optimised several critical duplicate files filtering methods if the current location context has more than one file domain, and I think I cleared out the basic 'get duplicate info for this file' call of all slow calls in complex location contexts
    The repair routine that regenerates mapping caches if any tables are missing on boot is now more reliable and covers the entirety of the mappings cache system using the new modules system. it also now regenerates just for the tag services with missing tables, not the whole cache
    If multiple types of mapping cache tables are missing on boot, and multiple waves of regenerations covering different areas are planned, duplicate regenerations will now be skipped

Manage large media collections and re-organize them using tags instead of folders that you can share via custom servers with this application.

The Unlicense

Changelog

    Misc:

    Updated the duplicate filter 'show next pair' logic again, mostly simplification and merging of decision making. it should be even more resistant to weird problems at the end of batches, particularly if you have deleted files manually
    A new button on the duplicate filter right hover window now appends the current pair to the parent duplicate media page (for if you want to do more processing to them later)
    If you manually delete a file in the duplicate filter, if that file appears again in the current batch of pairs, those will be auto-skipped
    If you manually delete a file in the duplicate filter, the actual delete is now deferred to when you commit the batch! it also undoes if you go back!
    Fixed a bug when editing the external program launch paths in the options
    Fixed an annoying delay-and-error-popup when clearing the separator field when editing a String Splitter. now the field just turns red and vetoes an OK with a nicer error text
    Also improved how string splitters report actual split errors
    If you are in advanced mode, the review services panels now have an 'id' button that lets you fetch the database service id
    Wrote a new database maintenance routine under database->check and repair->resync tag mappings cache files, which is a lightweight way of fixing ghost files or situations where files with a tag are neither counted nor appear in file results. this fixes these problems in a couple minutes, so for this it is much better than a full regen of the cache

    Cleanup and other boring stuff:

    The archive/delete filter now says which file domain it will be deleting from
    If an archive/delete filter is launched on a 'multiple locations' file domain, it is now careful to only make delete records for the deleted files for the file services each one is actually in
    Renamed the 'default local file search location' option to 'fallback' and updated its tooltip a bit. this was really a hacky thing I needed to fill some gaps while rewriting from 'my files' to multiple local file services. the whole thing needs more attention to become more useful. I also fixed an issue where it could become invalid 'nothing' if you deleted a file service it was referring to (issue #1155)
    I think I fixed a rare 'did not find info for that file' style problem when highlighting some watchers/downloaders
    I think I have silenced some unhelpful BeautifulSoup (html parser) warnings that were spamming to the log in some situations
    Updated last week's big update to work with TRUNCATE journalling mode. I will be doing this for other big updates going forwards, since multi-GB WAL transactions cause problems for some users
    Last week's update also gives a time estimate in its pre-popup, based on 60k files per minute
    Removed some old database cache data that wasn't cleared in a previous update
    A variety of misc UI text fixes and cleanup

Changelog

    the client now supports 'wavpack' files. these are basically a kind of compressed wav. mpv seems to play them fine too!
    added a new file maintenance action, 'if file is missing, note it in log', which records the metadata about missing files to the database directory but makes no other action
    the 'file is missing/incorrect' file maintenance jobs now also export the files' tags to the database directory, to further help identify them
    simplified the logic behind the 'remove files if they are trashed' option. it should fire off more reliably now, even if you have a weird multiple-domain location for the current page, and still not fire if you are actually looking at the trash
    if you paste an URL into the normal 'urls' downloader page, and it already has that URL and the URL has status 'failed', that existing URL will now be tried again. let's see how this works IRL, maybe it needs an option, maybe this feels natural when it comes up
    the default bandwidth rules are boosted. the client is more efficient these days and doesn't need so many forced breaks on big import lists, and the internet has generally moved on. thanks to the users who helped talk out what the new limits should aim at. if you are an existing user, you can change your current defaults under network->data->review bandwidth usage and edit rules --there's even a button to revert your defaults 'back' to these new rules
    now like all its neighbours, the cog icon on the duplicate right-side hover no longer annoyingly steals keyboard focus on a click.
    did some code and logic cleanup around 'delete files', particularly to improve repository update deletes now we have multiple local file services, and in planning for future maintenance in this area
    all the 'yes yes no' dialogs--the ones with multiple yes options--are moved to the newer panel system and will render their size and layout a bit more uniformly
    may have fixed an issue with a very slow to boot client trying to politely wait on the thumbnail cache before it instantiates
    misc UI text rewording and layout flag fixes
    fixed some jank formatting on database migration help

Changelog

    downloader pages:

    greatly improved the status reporting for downloader pages. the way the little text updates on your file and gallery progress are generated and presented is overhauled, and tests are unified across the different downloader pages. you now get specific texts on all possible reasons the queue cannot currently process, such as the emergency pause states under the network menu or specific info like hitting the file limit, and all the code involved here is much cleaner
    the 'working/pending' status, when you have a whole bunch of galleries or watchers wanting to run at the same time, is now calculated more reliably, and the UI will report 'waiting for a work slot' on pending jobs. no more blank pending!
    when you pause mid-job, the 'pausing - status' text is generated is a little neater too
    with luck, we'll also have fewer examples of 64KB of 503 error html spamming the UI
    any critical unhandled errors during importing proper now stop that queue until a client restart and make an appropriate status text and popup (in some situations, they previously could spam every thirty seconds)
    the simple downloader and urls downloader now support the 'delay work until later' error system. actual UI for status reporting on these downloaders remains limited, however
    a bunch of misc downloader page cleanup

    archive/delete:

    the final 'commit/forget/back' confirmation dialog on the archive/delete filter now lists all the possible local file domains you could delete from with separate file counts and 'commit' buttons, including 'all my files' if there are multiple, defaulting to the parent page's location at the top of the list. this let's you do a 'yes, purge all these from everywhere' delete or a 'no, just from here' delete as needed and generally makes what is going on more visible
    fixed archive/delete commit for users with the 'archived file delete lock' turned on

    misc:

    fixed a bug in the parsing sanity check that makes sure bad 'last modified' timestamps are not added. some ~1970-01-01 results were slipping through. on update, all modified dates within a week of this epoch will be retroactively removed
    the 'connection' panel in the options now lets you configure how many times a network request can retry connections and requests. the logic behind these values is improved, too--network jobs now count connection and request errors separately
    optimised the master tag update routine when you petition tags
    the Client API help for /add_tags/add_tags now clarifies that deleting a tag that does not exist will make a change--it makes a deletion record
    thanks to a user, the 'getting started with files' help has had a pass
    I looked into memory bloat some users are seeing after media viewer use, but I couldn't reproduce it locally. I am now making a plan to finally integrate a memory profiler and add some memory debug UI so we can better see what is going on when a couple gigs suddenly appear

    important repository processing fixes:

    I've been trying to chase down a persistent processing bug some users got, where no matter what resyncs or checks they do, a content update seems to be cast as a definition update. fingers crossed, I have finally fixed it this week. it turns out there was a bug near my 'is this a definition or a content update?' check that is used for auto-repair maintenance here (long story short, ffmpeg was false-positive discovering mpegs in json). whatever the case, I have scheduled all users for a repository update file metadata check, so with luck anyone with a bad record will be fixed automatically in the background within a few hours of background work. anyone who encounters this problem in future should be fixed by the automatic repair too. thank you very much to the patient users who sent in reports about this and worked with me to figure this out. please try processing again, and let me know if you still have any issues
    I also cleaned some of the maintenance code, and made it more aggressive, so 'do a full metadata resync' is now be even more uncompromising
    also, the repository updates file service gets a bit of cleanup. it seems some ghost files have snuck in there over time, and today their records are corrected. the bug that let this happen in the first place is also fixed
    there remains an issue where some users' clients have tried to hit the PTR with 404ing update file hashes. I am still investigating this

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

    Misc:

    Fixed a stupid bug that meant the image caches were initialising with default values (as under speed and memory) until you opened and OKed the options dialog (or did some other options-refresh events). sorry for the trouble, please enjoy some smoother image browsing.
    Mr bones now shows more numbers, and in a neater table. it should be clearer what the percentages are for now, too
    The manage->regenerate thumbnail menu has additional quick maintenance commands for presence and integrity checks and regenerating data in the similar files system
    Wrote a new 'special duplicate' button for the edit shortcut set dialog. the list on this dialog doesn't allow duplicates (which meant the old 'duplicate' button was doing nothing), so this duplicates the current actions with 'incremented' shortcut keys. 'a' becomes 'b', 'ctrl+5' becomes 'ctrl+6', and so on. it doesn't always work, but if you want to make ten shortcuts for setting rating 1-10, this should help
    Fixed an issue where the thumbnail banner text and the media viewer background text was not changing size or font according to QSS stylesheet rules (issue #1173)
    SIGTERM should now cause a clean program exit (previously it killed the GUI App but left some daemon threads alive for thirty seconds or more). unlike SIGINT, it will not ask you if you are sure you want to exit or if you would like to do shutdown maintenance--it just closes the client promptly
    Fixed a bug in last week's importer page status improvements--the hard drive import page wasn't showing all the updates it should have
    Brushed up some backup help

    File services:

    Fixed a bug where advanced users could set 'all known files'/'all known tags' on a search dropdown. this search domain is not supported
    In the archive/delete filter, if the current location is 'all my files' and the files being deleted are only in one local file domain, the surplus 'all my files' will no longer appear at the top of the filter's commit dialog
    The file services in the thumbnail select/remove menu are now sorted in the same order as the file domain button in search dropdowns
    The thumbnail select/remove menus now exclude 'all my files' and 'all local files' if those choices are redundant (e.g. if you only have files in 'my files', 'all my files' will be hidden)
    Fixed some incorrect 'delete from x' actions appearing in thumbnail right-click menus

    Orphan files:

    There's a persistent processing bug some users have where some update files are missing but they won't redownload correctly. I think I fix that this week naturally so existing maintenance routines will now be able to fix it themselves after another round
    Fixed some issues related to deleting files from the repository updates file domain.
    The 'clear orphan file records' maintenance command now fixes the 'all my files' umbrella services as well as the 'all local files' one. it also has nicer description, does some additional file-removal cleanup, and triggers a file recount if problems are found
    Moved 'clear orphan files' to the 'files' maintenance menu

Manage large media collections and re-organize them using tags instead of folders that you can share via custom servers with this application.

The Unlicense

Changelog

    System predicates:

    The advanced OR input, where you can type tags in complicated logical expressions, now supports system predicates! most system predicates are supported using their typical display strings. it uses the same engine as the client api, so check the examples here https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/developer_api.html#get_files_search_files sorry for the delay here
    The advanced input also runs tags better through the hydrus tag 'cleaning' process, so things like whitespace between the namespace colon and the subtag are cleaned up correctly, and invalid tags should be excluded
    It also starts with the keyboard focus in the text input
    And I think I fixed an issue with '!'', 'not', or '-' negation prefixes not parsing
    Highlighted the example parseable system predicate texts in the Client API help, and added 'last viewed' to it
    Altering your services in manage services no longer causes a full page refresh for all currently open search pages
    In a related thing, if you click the file or tag domain of a file search page to be the same as it just was, you no longer get a page refresh
    The rating widgets now show their current rating value on their tooltips
    When setting a numerical rating by a drag, it no longer matters if your mouse strays above or below the widget--it will still set
    The String Processing system has a new 'String Tag Filter' processing step. this applies the normal tag filtering object to your list of strings and also performs the hydrus 'tag cleaning' process on them, making them all lowercase and trimming whitespace and so on
    The sibling/parent sync is now even more polite when told to do work in 'normal' time. this has been hitting a lot of new users really hard, so it should now really trickle work during normal time, throttling down when it hits a bump to avoid stunlocking you but also responding quickly to recent changes if you are fully synced
    The database repair code is now better at healing damaged fast-text-search (FTS) tables. previously, in cases of partial damage to the virtual table, the repair code would error out
    Fixed a bug where certain search predicate calendar dates that are acceptable in Linux but not in Windows caused Windows to fail to load the session. if you put in 1965 as a search date, it should now revert to the current time one next load etc...
    The test to see if a directory is writeable-to is improved and now handles Windows's Program Files directory correctly
    Improved how the boot scripts handle incorrect/bad database directory paths. the error handling works better, and it figures out a fallback location for crash.log better
    A new button on 'review services' now lets advanced users copy the service key to the clipboard
    The migrate tags dialog now lists file repositories, ipfs services, and 'all my files' as potential file filter domains
    When checking it has space for a large transaction like a vacuum, hydrus now tries to check if you are running on a ramdisk or other severely space-limited temp dir and offers more text if this is true
    Updated the '4chan style thread api parser' to handle posts with multiple files, which fixes tvchan.moe and probably anything else running NPFchan
    Some logic testing around showing 'return to inbox' and the actual operation is fixed so it only applies to local files. in some weird advanced situations, you could previously send deleted files to inbox

    New import/export framework:

    Started a new modular metadata import/export pipeline. this thing starts out today by doing the work of newline-separated tags in a .txt sidecar file and will expand to do all sorts of metadata in other formats like JSON and XML. it will also, eventually, support arbitrary cross-type conversions like tags to urls or ratings to tags
    Export folders now support '.txt' sidecar tag exporting!
    The '.txt' sidecar tag importing in import folders or manual imports is now handled by the new pipeline
    The '.txt' sidecar exporting in the manual export dialog is now handled by the new pipeline
    Please expect the UI around '.txt' sidecar importing and exporting to change significantly in future. you'll be selecting different metadata types to import or export, make string processing steps to alter or filter what you get, and of course be able to compile it all into more complicated filetypes

    Cleanup and refactoring:

    Mr bones gets two new columns to line up the numbers better
    A bunch of export code got moved around. created a new module 'exporting', and moved ClientExporting.py to it, renaming to ClientExportingFiles.py
    Removed an old prototype for sidecar exporting and related plans for UI
    The 'missing file folders on boot' dialog now points users to 'help my media files are broke.txt'
    Brushed up the 'help my x is broke.txt' documents in the database directory a little
    Fixed some surplus double backslashes in the help
    A secret tiny label change/fix, let's see if anyone notices
    Cleaned up how the rating widgets manage and update rating state. it was ancient bad code
    Updated how different rating values are converted to UI text
    Misc cleanup of some free space checking code
    Fixed some bad quote characters in client api help JSON examples
    Improved some error handling for uploading pending content and sped up file uploads a little

    sort and collect updates:

    for big brain users, the collect control now has a tag domain button. it only shows if you are in advanced mode (issue #572)
    the sort control also has a tag domain button hidden behind advanced mode. it applies to system:num tags and namespace sorting
    the collect control now appears on all import pages

    archived file delete lock:

    the duplicate processing action code now no longer archives files that are due for deletion right before that deletion. this was hitting the archive delete lock
    if archive delete lock is on and the 'other' file in the duplicate filter is archived, the option to 'this is better, delete the other' is now disabled
    if you attempt to delete a delete-locked file during normal browsing, or if an automatic system like export folders wants to but fails on some, a popup is now made with a button to show the files that were filtered out so you can review the situation and fix it if you want
    I am considering adding a dialog to say 'hey, this is locked, want to send back to inbox?' to fix these situations in a nice way, but I think this is probably a bad idea in terms of workflow, design, and my sanity given all the edge cases and potential future expansions of lock rules. maybe I'll add a simple 'delete and override lock checks' option, but a lock is a lock tbh. for now, I will focus on this better UI feedback of currently delete-locked files and make it simpler for humans to remove any locks

    misc:

    using black magic, I have made it so the shortcuts for 'move left/right one page' 'and 'move home/end' do not dip down to the lowest level of a neighbouring page of pages for the next command. it now stays on the current tab level for three seconds after the most recent move command. this works in testing but may be jank in some IRL situations, so if this matters to you, let me know how it works out
    fixed a bug in 'do a full metadata resync' that meant unprocessed row orphans were not being deleted, which lead to lingering 1950/2000-style processed gauges that didn't actually cause any work to be done on 'process now'
    the duplicate filter now shows if one or both files have an icc profile. for now the score for this is always 0, neutral
    I think I have reduced general lag on some busy clients

    code cleaning and minor fixes:

    refactored file viewing stats management to a new database module
    refactored file physical storage management to a new database module
    cleaned up an ugly bridge that made inbox/archive work and moved it all to a clean new separate database module
    improved some client file physical storage repair code, both in how it repairs and how it recovers in the current boot
    updated the yes/no dialog texts when you apply 'not related' or 'alternates' to a selection
    added a bunch of tooltips to the 'speed and memory' options panel. also clarified the example image sizes in number of pixels
    improved how my grid layout propagates tooltips from the widget to the text when the widget is compound and in its own layout
    consolidated where the delete lock test occurs to just one location for db, gui
    added infrastructure to filter and report delete-locked files. callers no longer care about specific lock rules, opening this up to future expansion
    cleaned and simplified some duplicate action processing code
    cleaned up some file collect code, optimised it a bit too
    the sort control now only changes sort type on mouse wheel events if the mouse is over that button
    renamed 'tag search context' to 'tag context' across the program, mirroring a recent change with the location context, and gave it some bells and whistles. in future, the tag context will hold multiple tag services
    wrote a new button to edit tag contexts

    EXIF:

    In the first step of 'official' EXIF support, the media viewer now has a 'cog' button on the top hover, enabled when looking at a jpeg, that will check the file for EXIF data. if found, it will throw it up on a simple new window that shows EXIF id, label, and value. this is a hacked-together prototype, not super user-friendly, but it works. let me know what you think, and please send me any files that have weird EXIF that doesn't parse right but you think should. I already discovered a file with a null character that wouldn't display in UI, that sort of thing
    GPS EXIF values are also parsed and extracted
    Made it so you can double-click a row in this new window to copy an EXIF value to clipboard
    In the duplicate filter, if one or both files have exif data, this is now noted in the comparison statements, just like ICC profile! (issue #469)
    Obvious future extensions here will be storing 'has exif' in the database and allowing its presence to be searchable and enabling the cog button (or a nicer 'exif' button) only when there is known data to see. a subsequent step would be actually caching the data in the database for full EXIF search
    As a side thing, we're now set up on the hydrus end to pull TIFF EXIF, but PIL doesn't seem to offer it, so we'll have to wait for a different solution there

    Fixes and misc:

    Fixed a problem that made saved page file sorts reset their sort order one time on update to v492. thank you to a user for noticing this and discovering the fix, and I'm very sorry for the inconvenience of changing your session and favourite search sorts. unfortunately there is no easy fix other than rolling back to a backup and jumping forward to this version
    Fixed a v492 message display error when setting various duplicate relationships to three or more thumbnails at once. it was a stupid typo, sorry for the trouble! (issue #1199)
    If a page tab name elides to a 'shorter...' length, it now has its full name as the tooltip
    Fixed a typo in update code error handling (issue #1192)
    The duplicate filter page now remembers if you are 'searching immediately'/'search paused' (issue #1193)
    If you are on non-Windows and export files manually or with an export folder to an NTFS or exFAT partition, this is now detected, and NTFS-invalid characters in the pattern-generated folders or filename are now replaced with underscores (issue #1194)
    'fixed' a system predicate bug in the 'OR*' advanced predicate parser--entering a logical expression that results in a negated system tag now causes an error. previously, it would strip the 'system:' and just enter the given text as an unnamespaced tag. furthermore, that dialog now reports specific error reasons when it fails to parse. I hope to improve support for negated system tags in future--some stuff, like archive/inbox, should be easy.
    I think I fixed an instance where the archive/delete filter's confirmation dialog could present 'delete from hard disk' as an option when it wasn't appropriate
    In an attempt to reduce the media-change flickering we've recently seen in the media viewer, I untangled a bunch of the canvas size/position code this week. I'm preparing a complete overhaul and neat Qt layout integration, which this starts. I think I've made some things less flickery on occasion, but we'll see IRL. much more to do
    Added a '--profile_mode' launch argument, which allows you to capture the performance of boot and also try out profile mode on the server (although support there is very limited atm)

    QT6:

    Thanks to a user's help, we are rolling out a Qt6 test build this week. we've been running Qt5 for a few years now. 6 is mostly a very large bugfix patch, and I am hopeful this update will relieve several legacy issues related to UI scale, colour support, draw flickering, and other unusual stuff. so far, it is working for me great. I'll be putting out joint 5 and 6 builds for 4-8 weeks, to iron out any big problems, and then I'll switch over to 6 releases exclusively. if you are an advanced user, please give it a go this or next week and let me know if you run into any traceback errors about deprecated method names or completely jank layout in the less used parts of the program
    The actual changes you'll see are mostly style, just slightly different font spacing, things like that. if you have a system-baked Qt5 style that hydrus magically inherits, this will no longer work, you need to get a Qt6 version of the style (although I understand this is happening already for the popular styles, so you may already have them)
    Users on Windows 7 and similarly old OS versions are unable to run Qt6 programs, sorry!
    I intend to keep the code 5-compatible, and users who run from source can choose whichever version of Qt they prefer, as here in the help: https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/running_from_source.html#qt
    The linux Qt6 build also goes up from ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04. let me know if you have any trouble, but it feels like it is time to update this too

    File import options overhaul:

    I wanted to do note parsing this week, but when I reviewed the whole job, there wasn't enough time to do it properly. so, in prep for a cleaner introduction of 'note import options' next week, I am overhauling how the other import options do some stuff
    All file import options now support filetype filtering! it uses the same control as system:filetype or in import folders, but with some improved logic. on update, existing import folder filetype settings will be copied down to the file import options
    File import options now work on a similar 'default' system as tag import options. existing file import options will stay as-is, but new ones will begin in a 'use the default settings at time of import' state. those defaults are editable under options->importing. for now I am not adding a 'use this file import options default for this web domain' system, but it might happen in future. let's see how this all shakes out first
    The file import options button now has a right-click menu like the tag import options button
    The manage subscriptions panel now has a 'overwrite file import options' button to mass-set FIO
    Leaned up a bunch of old file import and import options code

    Misc:

    System-filetype now remembers meta filetypes better. if you select 'all video', it will now still select all video even if hydev adds support for a new video type in future. also if you select 'video + animations', it'll say that rather than listing out every possible specific-type
    Fixed an issue where loading a favourite search wasn't always setting 'include current/pending' values on the buttons correct
    Fixed up a status display in the gallery downloader and watcher pages--if you pause an importer while it is doing work, it now says 'pausing...' as its status until any current jobs are finished. it was giving empty text before, as if it were finished already
    Fixed some unusual behaviour with downloader highlighting where the first query pended to an empty page was secretly highlighted for the next session load, and fixed the 'subscription gap downloader' also doing this and not obeying the normal 'highlight new downloaders if nothing already highlighted' option
    Improved the error when the 'make sure this directory exists' function runs into a file with that pathname
    Fixed a rare selection position error, maybe Qt6 only, when clicking in the thumbnail grid as it is loading

    Boring Qt6 code cleanup:

    As a side thing, I set up quick-launch environments for QtPy5, QtPy6, PySide2, and PySide6 in my IDE this week, so I can now test all these situations and jump back in time no problem in future
    Integrated a user's patch to bring us up to Qt6 compatibility and did a little more work to get it backwards compatible with older qtpy and Qt5
    Refactored the critical Qt boot setup and monkeypatching from QtPorting to a new QtInit module
    Migrated the hydrus code for keyboardModifiers, event-pos, and globalPos all to the Qt6 equivalents so the monkeypatching is always going to be on older versions looking forward
    Fiddled with QPoint and QPointF conversions a little so I think Qt5 and Qt6 is always talking about the same type
    Updated build scripts and requirements.txts for the new situation
    Updated the help a bit for the new situation

    Qt6:

    if available, Qt6 is now the default. specifically, if the QT_API environment variable is not set, the default is now PySide6, and if that is not available, then PySide2 (Qt5). previously, the opposite was true
    fixed a bug in last week's File Import Options default update with the new 'default' FIOs always showing 'new' files on a gallery/watcher highlight. the Presentation Import Options and the check to see if the pending local file domains actually exist now correctly look up the 'default' FIOs
    Qt6 has much better UI scaling support than Qt5 for zooms other than 100%/200%. many Windows users are at 125%/150%, which revealed some pretty ugly thumbnails and thumb banner text in Qt6. thank you for the reports. I did my homework and read up on how this is supposed to work and I have hacked pretty thumbnails at unusual UI scales. it also redraws itself correctly when I move from a 100% screen to a different one at 125%; let me know how you get on. I'm quite pleased
    the media viewer is still slightly borked at >100%. the fix will be slightly different, but I have a plan and hope to have it sorted for next week.
    fixed setting a mouse scroll wheel shortcut in shortcut options in Qt6
    as a reminder, as far as I know, Windows 7 cannot run Qt6. I will be dropping the Qt5 build in a few weeks, so if you are a Windows 7 user, have a think on what you want to do--either stop updating, move hydrus to a newer OS, or run from source on Win 7/Qt5

    note import options and note parsing:

    note parsing is ready in parts. I am rolling them out for feedback from advanced users and hope to link it all up into a working system next week!
    the different 'x import options', previously file and tag import options, and this week adding 'note import options', are now edited through one combined button and dialog. this 'import options' button dynamically adjusts to deal with how many types of import options the importer has and will relabel and tooltip and right-click-menu itself appropriately
    this new button and multi-edit-panel show '(is default)' status in menus and tabs for quick referral
    if you want to play with note import options, check out the new EXPERIMENTAL menu option under network->downloader components. read the help and tooltips and let me know if I have missed anything simple, obvious, and important
    I have no default system for Note Import Options set up yet, so I have not added it for real. I will do something domain-based, similar to Tag Import Options.
    I did however write simple note parsing support. any Content Parser can now have a 'note' parsing type, with a note name. downloader creators, please feel free to play with this, although it isn't complicated and isn't plugged in yet. I think we should review what sites have parseable notes and plan for that rather than start implementing for real just yet. the main limitation is that the parsing system can't do multi-line results yet
    I'd like to see if I can get NIO defaults going next week, and this should suddenly all lock into place. multi-line parsing may be easy or a massive pain, I'm not sure yet

    misc:

    added two new checkboxes to options->files and trash to turn off the yes/no confirmation when you copy/move file across multiple local file services
    the 'overwrite this session?' confirmation dialog now says the session name you are overwriting
    fixed a bug where thumbnails were not immediately updating their banner text on changes to the summary generator objects in options->tag presentation
    moved the 'focus thumbnail in preview window' checkboxes from 'gui pages' options page to 'thumbnails'
    updated the text and enabled status of the 'BUGFIX: discord DnD' stuff in options->gui
    updated the job description texts in the file maintenance dialog, improving formatting and clarifying what happens in each missing/incorrect job, and what 'remove record' means precisely (it leaves no deletion record)
    fixed a bug from last week when trying to edit your default tag import options

    boring note import options cleanup and refactoring:

    moved ClientGUIImport code up to a new hydrus.client.gui.importing module, refactored it into multiple files, and merged in some other edit panels for various import gui
    merged the file/tag import options buttons into one cleverer and cleaner class. changed its update callables into nicer Qt signals. wrote a new tabbed edit panel for it to work with, and replaced all old import option buttons across the program with the new system
    fixed an issue where the 'import options' buttons (now merged) would allow you to set them as 'default' through the right-click menu even when the button was set to not allow defaults (this state occurs in the options dialog, when you set what the defaults are)
    fixed the same when you try to paste default options into the button
    brushed up and completed the note import options object
    wrote a 'edit note import options' panel
    fixed a small thing where the 'string-to-string' list widget wasn't setting the custom 'value' column header name correctly

    Note import options:

    The client now has a system to set default note import options. it works exactly the same as default tag import options and shares the same UI, now named network->downloaders->manage default import options. you now set tag and/or note import options for a particular domain. I don't think you'll have to touch the note defaults until this system is really going and we learn more about what we want. I have made the initial defaults get all notes with some simple conflict resolution that won't discard any data
    All url pages, watchers, watcher pages, gallery queries, gallery downloader pages, and subscriptions now have a note import options. by default, they are 'default'
    The edit subscription dialog now has a button to set note import options en masse
    All the behind the scenes stuff that connects and powers these systems is done. note parsing now works! advanced users, especially downloader makers, are encouraged to play around with this for real. the remaining hurdle is still multiline parsing support
    Notes now have a cleaning system before they are saved. to start with this week, they are now trimmed of leading or trailing whitespace or newlines

    Qt6:

    The media viewer now draws correctly on UI scaled displays. If you are at >100% UI scale, it will now render images beautifully, using all available pixels, and state the correct zoom percentage. you look at a 4k image on a 4k screen, you now see 4k, no matter the UI scale. previously it was rendering at 100% UI scale coordinates and being nearest-neighbour scaled up
    After several sad hours banging my head against font metrics, I finally discovered the magic flag needed and have improved the font quality of the thumbnail banners when you boot the client with only 100% UI scale monitors. should be anti-aliased now, although if you have a semi-transparent banner colour it may look slightly jank for reasons I still need to investigate.
    I fixed the 'don't process the click that activates a media viewer into the shortcuts system' hook for Qt6 (and still working on Qt5). it is a little smarter now, too

    Misc:

    The new import options button is now an arrow-menu button. the secret right-click menu is no longer hidden. I also did some behind the scenes stuff to make it so all these arrow buttons spawn their menus on your cursor when you click, rather than hanging off the bottom-left corner of the button proper
    Rating stars of all shapes are now anti-aliased
    Greatly improved the shape of the 'star' rating star
    Moved the 'checker options' button on watcher highlight panels down a bit. maybe it'll get integrated into other import options one day--I am still thinking about it
    Archive/delete filters will not present 'delete from hard disk' as a final choice if the current domain is 'all local files'. I thought I fixed this a couple weeks ago, but there was a legacy issue
    Fixed some real jank logic when setting the tag domain in autocomplete dropdown widgets. this got messed up a little with recent updates to file and tag domain searching. I reworked the signal path and fixed some weird update bugs and situations where you could seemingly set 'all known files'/'all known tags'

    Boring code cleanup:

    Refactored all zoom code from the media viewer canvas to the media viewer container. the canvas no longer manages zoom numbers or container size
    Refactored all container-position-tracking code from the media viewer canvas to the media viewer container and cleaned it
    Updated the media viewer container to recognise UI scaling and adapt the stated zoom to reflect the raw pixels on screen, not the device independent coordinate system
    Updated the native animation widget to recognise UI scaling, adapt its underlying renderer resolution appropriately, and draw that super-resolution frame to the canvas
    Updated the static image widget to recognise UI scaling, adapt its tile coordinate system and resolution appropriately, and scatter the ethereal powder of the cleansed ancients across the QPainter in order to stitch the arbitrarily zoomed super-resolution tiles together on a sub-pixel canvas with no visible seams
    The animation and static image widgets also recognise changes in the current UI scale--if the current monitor changes or you move across monitors with differing UI scale
    Updated some old pubsub update calls in the canvas code to Qt signals
    Cleaned up some old const definitions in canvas code
    Refactored and simplified some test methods related to the canvas container and media show actions
    Cleaned up some old painter code and hacks to simpler alternatives
    Cleaned a tangle of file/tag domain update code in the autocomplete dropdowns
    Cleaned up some options getting/setting methods in the downloaders

Changelog


    misc:

    I bulked out the 'star' rating shape a bit more, since the new pentragram, while it looked better than my old 'by-eye' star, was a bit thin. if you prefer the pentagram, this is now selectable as a new shape type under manage services
    the Windows installer is now Qt6 exclusively. there are no special update instructions, it should all just work™
    the 'manage tag siblings/parents' dialogs now have explicit delete buttons, which should make mass-deletes a little easier to do. some of the background code is cleaned up too, and the 'add' button is moved up to the main button row
    you can now hide all sibling and/or parent text-suffix 'decorators' in the manage tags and autocomplete dropdown taglists, with four new checkboxes under options->tags. the right-click menus of these lists let you temporarily show/hide too, just like 'hide/show parent rows'
    when you change the namespace sort in the options, the existing collect-by dropdowns now update instantly (previously, existing pages needed a client restart to see any changes)
    I updated how the media viewer 'note' hover window lays out and does its 'how tall should I be?' estimate. it fits better, being exactly just tall enough in more cases, but it still seems to have trouble with multiple notes that include wrapping text
    added a link to the new flatpak release (easy Linux running-from-source setup) that a user made to the install help
    fixed an issue with the new 'default' file import options when you right-click a watcher/gallery download--the 'show files' menu now correctly adapts to you having a default file import options
    if you are set to elide page tab names, then all pages will tooltip their names on mouseover
    new clients now start with (ctrl+page up/down) as 'move page selection left/right'

    client api:

    the Client API routine that fetches file statuses for a given URL no longer double-checks 'already in db' results against your actual file system. this check is more appropriate to an actual working import process, so it now defaults off in the Client API
    if you want to do this check because you are searching for missing files, you can turn it back on with the new 'doublecheck_file_system' parameter.
    the client api help has been updated to reference this
    the client api's Server header is now "client api/32 (497)". NOT "client api/17". it was stating the hydrus network version erroneously. it now states client api version and software version. if you are able to parse this header, it makes '/api_version' request superfluous
    the client api version is now 32

    multiline parsing:

    the parser now supports limited multiline parsing. the main changes are hardcoded: the formulae beneath note content parsers and those that do subsidiary page parser splitting no longer remove newlines when they parse. all the parsing UI and the test panels and so on are now aware of this and set flags in all the right places, and parsed notes are now washed through the new trimming/cleaning method, and everything seems to basically work. the main remaining problems is the complicated string processing UI has mixed single/multi-line testing support. some looks great, most gets coerced to single-line just for the previewed test results
    as an example, the default hentai foundry downloader now grabs the artist description as a multi-line note
    the parsing sub-system that extracts cohesive strings from complex html blocks now inserts newlines at 'p' and 'br' tags

    trying to parse clean multiline notes still caused several formatting issues this week, so I have updated the automatic note-washing routine to standardise hydrus notes in several new ways that I hope will not be too disruptive to manually written notes:

    the note washing routine now coerces all newline characters to 'backslash-n', regardless of platform
    the note washing routine now trims each line, so no leading or trailing whitespace anywhere. I am open to changing this in future, maybe for handwritten notes where you really want an indent somewhere, but parsing from complex nested html tags is making a heap of weird extra whitespace, for which this is a clean solution
    the note washing routine now trims newline gaps that are greater than two-newlines. you can split paragraphs by one empty line, but no more
    there may be other issues figuring out cleanly formatted strings from nested html tags--so give it a go and let me know what you think. maybe p and br blocks should always make two newlines, so we have separated paragraphs, maybe I need to parse more blocks, like h1 and friends. any specific example html blocks would also be helpful

    cleanup:

    refactored ClientGUIParsing to its own 'parsing' module and split everything into four less tangled files
    cleaned up a bunch of taglist text presentation code, mostly simplicity and clarity in prep for future updates
    updated the checker options button to use a Qt signal instead of a callable

    Overview:

    The server has important database and network updates this week. if your server has a lot of content, it has to count it all up, so it will take a short while to update. the petition protocol has also changed, so older clients will not be able to fetch new servers' petitions without an error. I think newer clients will be able to fetch older servers' ones, but it may be iffy
    I considered whether I should update the network protocol version number, which would (politely) force all users to update, but as this causes inconvenience every time I do it, and I expect to do more incremental updates here in coming weeks, and since this only affects admins and janitors, I decided to not. we are going to be in awkward flux for a little bit, so please make sure you update privileged clients and servers at roughly the same time

    Server petition workflow:

    The server now maintains an ongoing fast count of its various repository metadata, such as 'number of mappings' and 'number of petitions of type x'. when you fetch petition counts, no longer will it count live and max out at 1,000, it'll give you good full numbers every time, and real fast
    You can see the current numbers from the new 'service info' button on review services, which only appears in advanced mode. any user with an account key can see these numbers, which include number of petitions in the queue. I can make this more private if you like, but for now I think it is good if advanced users can see them all
    In the petition processing page, sibling and parent petitions will now include both delete and add rows if the account and reason are the same. I'm aiming to get better 'full' coverage of a replace petition, so you can see and approve/deny both the add and the remove parts in one go. for fetching, these combined petitions count as 'delete' petitions, and won't appear in the 'add' petition queue
    When users encounter an automatic conflict resolution in the manage siblings dialog, those auto-petitioned pairs are now assigned the same reason as the original conflicting pended pairs. they should show up together in the new petition processing UI
    As part of this, sibling and parent petitions are no longer filtered by namespace. you will see everything with that same account and reason in one go. let's try it out, and if it is too much, I will add filters clientside or something. since we are now starting to see add and remove together, we'll want to at least have the option to see everything

    Boring server stuff:

    The petition object is updated to handle multiple actions per petition, and the clientside petition UI is updated appropriately
    The server tracks 'actionable' petition counts as separate to the number of raw petition rows. some of this was happening before, but the logic is improved, including clever counting of the new petitions that include both add and delete rows
    For when my count-update logic inevitably fails, there is now a 'regen service info' entry in the 'administrate services' menu for all repositories. numbers generated will be printed to server log
    Some unusual repo upload logic is cleaned up, e.g. if a user with 'create permission' uploads a sibling or parent, any pending rows for that content will now be properly cleared)
    Fixed a stupid swap logical bug where janitors who could only moderate siblings (and not parents) were only being given parent numbers and vice versa
    All server services now respond to /busy check. it requires no authentication and just returns 1 or 0 depending on the current lock state
    Fixed a bug where tag siblings or parents that were denied would still make a new definition record for the child/bad tag
    With all the fine number changes, fleshed out the server unit tests with more examples of submitting and altering content and then checking for numbers afterwards. now checked are: file add, file admin delete, mapping add, mapping admin delete, mapping petition, mapping petition approve+deny, parent add, parent admin delete, parent pend, parent pend approve+deny, parent petition, parent petition approve+deny
    Significant refactoring of the tail end of server content update pipeline. more things now go through logic-harmonised update methods that ensure count is reliable
    Did some misc server db and constant enum code cleanup

    Misc:

    To match the new change in the server, in the client, tag and rating services now store their 'num_files' service info count as the new 'num_file_hashes'. existing numbers will be converted over during update
    Fixed a probably ten year old bug where 'num pending/petitioned files' had the same enum as 'num pending/petitioned mappings'. never noticed, since no service has done both those things
    If the upload pending process fails due to an unusual permission error or similar, the pending menu should now recover and update itself (previously it stayed greyed out)

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

    Mpv:

    Dated the mpv version for Windows. this is more complicated than it sounds and has been fraught with difficulty at times, so I do not try it often, but the situation seems to be much better now. today we are updating about twelve months. I may be imagining it, but things seem a bit smoother. a variety of weird file support should be better--an old transparent apng that I know crashed older mpv no longer causes a crash--and there's some acceleration now for very new CPU chipsets. I've also insisted on precise seeking (rather than keyframe seeking, which some users may have defaulted to). mpv-1.dll is now mpv-2.dll
    I don't have an easy Linux testbed any more, so I would be interested in a Linux 'running from source' user trying out a similar update and letting me know how it goes. try getting the latest libmpv1 and then update python-mpv to 1.0.1 on pip. your 'mpv api version' in help->about should now be 2.0. this new python-mpv seems to have several compatibility improvements, which is what has plagued us before here
    Mpv on macOS is still a frustrating question mark, but if this works on Linux, it may open another door. who knows, maybe the new version doesn't crash instantly on load

    Search change for potential duplicates:

    This is subtle and complicated, so if you are a casual user of duplicates, don't worry about it. duplicates page = better now
    For those who are more invested in dupes, I have altered the main potential duplicate search query. when the filter prepares some potential dupes to compare, or you load up some random thumbs in the page, or simply when the duplicates processing page presents counts, this all now only tests kings. previously, it could compare any member of a duplicate group to any other, and it would nominate kings as group representatives, but this lead to some odd situations where if you said 'must be pixel dupes', you could get two low quality pixel dupes offering their better king(s) up for actual comparison, giving you a comparison that was not a pixel dupe. same for the general searching of potentials, where if you search for 'bad quality', any bad quality file you set as a dupe but didn't delete could get matched (including in 'both match' mode), and offer a 'nicer' king as tribute that didn't have the tag. now, it only searches kings. kings match searches, and it is those kings that must match pixel dupe rules. this also means that kings will always be available on the current file domain, and no fallback king-nomination-from-filtered-members routine is needed any more
    The knock-on effect here is minimal, but in general all database work in the duplicate filter should be a little faster, and some of your numbers may be a few counts smaller, typically after discounting weird edge case split-up duplicate groups that aren't real/common enough to really worry about. if you use a waterfall of multiple local file services to process your files, you might see significantly smaller counts due to kings not always being in the same file domain as their bad members, so you may want to try 'all my files' or just see how it goes--might be far less confusing, now you are only given unambiguous kings. anyway, in general, I think no big differences here for most users except better precision in searching!
    But let me know how you get on IRL!

    Misc:

    Thank's to a user's hard work, the default twitter downloader gets some upgrades this week: you can now download from twitter lists, a twitter user's likes, and twitter collections (which are curated lists of tweets). the downloaders still get a lot of 'ignored' results for text-only tweets, but this adds some neat tools to the toolbox
    Thanks to a user, the Client API now reports brief caching information and should boost Hydrus Companion performance (issue #605)
    The simple shortcut list in the edit shortcut action dialog now no longer shows any duplicates (such as 'close media viewer' in the dupes window)
    Added a new default reason for tag petitions, 'clearing mass-pasted junk'. 'not applicable' is now 'not applicable/incorrect'
    In the petition processing page, the content boxes now specifically say ADD or DELETE to reinforce what you are doing and to differentiate the two boxes when you have a pixel petition
    In the petition processing page, the content boxes now grow and shrink in height, up to a max of 20 rows, depending on how much stuff is in them. I think I have pixel perfect heights here, so let me know if yours are wrong!
    The 'service info' rows in review services are now presented in nicer order
    Updated the header/title formatting across the help documentation. when you search for a page title, it should now show up in results (e.g. you type 'running from source', you get that nicely at the top, not a confusing sub-header of that article). the section links are also all now capitalised
    Misc refactoring

    Bunch of fixes:

    Fixed a weird and possible crash-inducing scrolling bug in the tag list some users had in Qt6
    Fixed a typo error in file lookup scripts from when I added multi-line support to the parsing system (issue #1221)
    Fixed some bad labels in 'speed and memory' that talked about 'MB' when the widget allowed setting different units. also, I updated the 'video buffer' option on that page to a full 'bytes value' widget too (issue #1223)
    The 'bytes value' widget, where you can set '100 MB' and similar, now gives the 'unit' dropdown a little more minimum width. it was getting a little thin on some styles and not showing the full text in the dropdown menu (issue #1222)
    Fixed a bug in similar-shape-search-tree-rebalancing maintenance in the rare case that the queue of branches in need of regeneration become out of sync with the main tree (issue #1219)
    Fixed a bug in archive/delete filter where clicks that were making actions would start borked drag-and-drop panning states if you dragged before releasing the click. it would cause warped media movement if you then clicked on hover window greyspace
    Fixed the 'this was a cloudflare problem' scanner for the new 1.2.64 version of cloudscraper
    Updated the popupmanager's positioning update code to use a nicer event filter and gave its position calculation code a quick pass. it might fix some popup toaster position bugs, not sure
    Fixed a weird menu creation bug involving a QStandardItem appearing in the menu actions
    Fixed a similar weird QStandardItem bug in the media viewer canvas code
    Fixed an error that could appear on force-emptied pages that receive sort signals

    Crashes:

    I messed the mpv update up in v499. my golden rule is never to put out bleeding-edge library updates, but without thinking I gave everyone a dll from late august. it turns out this thing was pretty crashy, and many users were getting other unusual behaviour as well. it seems like people on very new versions of Windows were mostly ok, but a little instability, whereas some older-Windows users were unable to start the client or could boot but couldn't load mpv at all. these latter cases were plagued with other problems. thanks to user help, we discovered it was the newer mpv dll causing all the problems, and an older one, from early May, seems to be fine
    So, I am rolling back the mpv in the windows releases. the 'v3' 2022-08-29 I bundled in 499 was causing several users serious problems, possibly because of the advanced 'v3' chipset instructions or related advanced compiler tech. for the Qt6 release, we are going back to 2022-05-01, which several users report as stable, and for the Qt5 we are rolling back to the 498 version, 2021-02-28, which is back to mpv-1.dll. Since Qt5 users are increasingly going to be Win 7, we'll go super safe. THEREFORE, Qt5 extract users will want to perform a clean install this week: https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/getting_started_installing.html#clean_installs
    (you can alternately just delete the now-surplus mpv-2.dll in your install directory, but a full clean install is good to do from time to time, so may as well)
    Updated the sqlite dll in the windows release to 2022-05, and the exe in the db directory to 2022-09
    Rewrote how some internal MPV events are signalled to Qt. they now have their own clean custom event types rather than piggy-backing on some bad old hydrus pubsub code
    I either fixed a rare boot crash related to the popup messaging system, maybe exclusively on macOS, or I improved it and we'll get a richer error now

    Tag sibling search:

    If you search explicitly for a tag that has a better sibling (one way this can happen is when loading up an old favourite search), the client will now auto-convert that tag to the ideal in the search code and give you results for the siblinged tag
    This started off as a predicted five minute thing and spilled out into a multi-hour saga of me realising some tag sibling search code was A) wrong in edge cases and B) slow in edge cases. I have subtly reshaped how core file-tag search works in the client so that it consults each tag service in turn based on its siblings and its mappings, rather than mixing them together. this does not matter for 99.98% of cases, but if you have some weird overlapping siblings across different services, you should now get the correct results. also, some optimisations are more effective, so any instance of searching for tags on small tag services on 'all known tags' is now a bit quicker
    Big brain: please note the logic here is complex, and I have not yet updated autocomplete counting to handle this situation. if you type 'cat' and get 'cat (3)' from the three 'cat' tags on 'my tags', but 'cat' is siblinged to 'species:feline' on a big service like the PTR, it will still say (3), rather than (403) or whatever from the auto-corrected PTR results. I have a plan to fix this in a future cleanup round

    Tag subtags and namespace wildcards:

    Searching for 'samus aran' no longer delivers files that have 'character:samus aran'. the subtag->namespace logic no longer applies. this was a fun idea from the very start of the program, but it was never all that useful as default behaviour and added several headaches, now eliminated. if you wish to perform this search going forward, please enter '*:samus aran', which is now an acceptable wildcard input
    Tag lookup is unaffected. typing 'samus aran' will still provide 'character:samus aran' as a tag to choose from
    A heap of rinky-dink counting logic went along with this, such as providing tag search results like ('character:samus aran (100)', 'samus aran (100-105)'), where it tried to predict how many results would come with the unnamespaced search. this no longer exists, and a decent bit of CPU is now saved in any large tag search
    Wildcard searching works on similar rules now, so if you enter 'sa*s ar', you will see 'character:samus aran' as a result in the tag list, but searching for it will not give results with 'character:samus aran'. again, enter '*:sa*s ar*' to search for all namespaces (which is now provided as a quick suggestion any time you enter an unnamespaced wildcard), or enter 'character:sa*s ar*' explicitly
    'system:tag as number' also now follows similar rules, so if you leave the namespace field blank, it will search unnamespaced numbers. it now supports namespace wildcards, so you can enter '*' to get the old behaviour. the placeholder text on the namespace input now states this
    'system:number of tags' now uses the same UI as 'system:tag as number', where you enter '*' as the namespace to mean all namespaces, rather than checking a box

    Misc:

    All tag, namespace, and wildcard search predicates are now properly editable from the active search box. shift+double-click or select from the right-click menu, and you now get a simple text input alongside any system predicate panels. previously, this would only offer you a button to invert the tag to -tag and vice versa. now, you can add or remove the '-' and '*' characters yourself info to freely convert between tags, namespace:anything, and wildcard search predicates (issue #1235)
    Thanks to a user, you can now add '{#}' to an export filename pattern to get the '#' column in your filename (useful if you want to export files in the order they are currently in on the page)
    Furthermore, if you delete items from the manual file export window, the '#' column now recalculates itself to stay contiguous and in order (previously, it left gaps)
    Fixed a bug when deleting siblings on a local tags service. sorry for the trouble!
    On manage siblings, when you remove, add, or replace a pair on a local tags service, you will now get a simple 'note' reason informing you more on what is going on. the 'REPLACEMENT:' thing recently added to tag repositories should now work for you too
    When a downloader or similar adds files to a page, and you have at least one existing file selected, the status bar now updates correctly
    Fixed a critical issue that was affecting some users with damaged similar file search trees. when starting similar file search tree rebalancing maintenence, their client would go into an infinite loop and spool the cyclic branch into an ever-growing journal file in their temp directory until their system drive briefly ran out of space. sorry for the trouble, and thank you for the excellent reports that helped to figure this out (issue #1239)
    The similar files search tree rebalance maintenance now detects more sorts of damaged trees and handles them gracefully, and the full tree regeneration clears out any damaged maintenance information too
    Fixed another problem with the tree branch maintenance system when the root was accidentally queued for branch rebalance
    When you right-click->copy a wildcard search tag, it now copies the actual wildcard text, not the display text with (wildcard search) over the top
    I added ',' to the list of non-decodable characters in the hacky URL Class encoding/decoding routine. sites that use an encoded comma (%_2C) for regular path components or query parameters should now work
    A user has fixed a regex parsing problem in the predicate parser for system:hash
    OR search predicates now sort their sub-predicates on construction/editing, meaning the label is always of set order, and they can now compare with and hence reliably nullify each other
    The manage logins dialog now boots a little taller
    The main gui tab bar may look a bit nicer/more appropriate in macOS
    Updated the help text on gui pages where it talks about overflowing rows of tabs, which auto-scroll even worse in Qt6, hooray

    Client api:

    The client api now handles request disconnects better. the hydrus server code benefits from the same engine improvements
    The 'twisted.internet.defer.CancelledError' logspam is cleaned up!
    If a client disconnects before a client api autocomplete tag search or a file search is complete, that database job is now cancelled quickly just like when you type new characters in the client UI or stop a slow search
    If you are a client api dev, please let me know how this works out IRL. I'm not 100% sure what a 'disconnect' means in this context, but if you want to develope autocomplete quick lookup as the user types, and you have a way clientside to cancel/kill an ongoing request before it is complete, please give it a go and let me know if this all works. cancelled requests don't make a log record right now, but you should see the client's db lock free up instantly. at the very least, I have the proper infrastructure for this now, so I can add more/better 'cancel' hooks as we need them

    Uninteresting code cleanup:

    Refactored the file note mapping db code to a new module
    Refactored the file service pathing db code (this does directory structures and multihashes for ipfs) to a new module
    Refactored some tag display, tag filtering, and tag autocomplete calls down to appropriate db modules
    Refactored and extended some tag sibling database methods and names to clarify whether they were working with ids or strings

Changelog


    Misc:

    The Linux build gets the same 'cannot boot' setuptools version hotfix as last week's Windows build. sorry if you could not boot v500 on Linux! macOS never got the problem, I think because it uses pyoxidizer instead of pyinstaller
    Fixed the error/crash when clients running with PyQt6 (rather than the default Qt6, PySide6) tried to open file or directory selection dialogs. there was a slight method name discrepancy between the two libraries in Qt6 that we had missed, and it was sufficiently core that it was causing errors and best, crashes at worst
    Fixed a common crash caused after several options-saving events such as pausing/resuming subscriptions, repositories, import/export folders. thank you very much to the users who reported this, I was finally able to reproduce it an hour before the release was due. the collect control was causing the crash--its ability to update itself without a client restart is disabled for now
    Unfortunately, it seems Deviant Art have locked off the API we were using to get nice data, so I am reverting the DA downloader this week to the old html parser, which nonetheless still sems to work well. I expect we'll have to revisit this when we rediscover bad nsfw support or similar--let me know how things go, and you might like to hit your DA subs and 'retry ignored'
    Fixed a bad bug where manage rating dialogs that were launched on multiple files with disagreeing numerical ratings (where it shows the stars in dark grey), if okayed on that 'mixed' rating, rather than leaving them untouched, were resetting all those files back to the minimum allowed star value. I do not know when this bug came in, it is unusual, but I did do some rating state work a few weeks ago, so I am hoping it was then. I regret this and the inconvenience it has caused
    If you manually navigate while the media viewer slideshow is running, the slideshow timer now resets (e.g. if you go 'back' on an image 7 seconds into a 10 second slideshow, it will show the previous image for 10 seconds, not 3, before moving on again)
    Fixed a type bug in PyQt hydrus when you tried to seek an mpv video when no file was loaded (usually happens when a seek event arrives late)
    When you drop a hydrus serialised png of assorted objects onto a multi-column list, the little error where it says 'this list does not take objects of type x' now only shows once! previously, if your png was a list of objects, it could make a separate type error for each in turn. it should now all be merged properly
    This import function also now presents a summary of how many objects were successfully imported
    Updated all ui-level ipfs multihash fetching across the program. this is now a little less laggy and uses no extra db in most cases
    Misc code and linter warning cleanup

    Tag right-click:

    The 'edit x' entry in the tag right-click menu is now moved to the 'search' submenu with the other search-changing 'exclude'/'remove' etc.. actions
    The 'edit x' entry no longer appears when you only select invertible, non-editable predicates
    If you right-click on a -negated tag, the 'search' menu's action label now says 'require samus aran' instead of the awkward 'exclude -samus aran'. it will also say the neutral 'invert selection' if things get complicated

    Notes logic improvements:

    If you set notes to append on conflict and the existing note already contains the new note, now no changes will be made (repeatedly parsing the same conflcting note now won't append it multiple times)
    If you set notes to rename on conflict and the note already exists on another name, now no changes will be made (i.e. repeatedly parsing the same conflicting note won't create (1), (2), (3)... rename dupes)

    Client api:

    /add_tags/search_tags gets a new parameter, 'tag_display_type', which lets you either keep searching the raw 'storage' tags (as you see in edit contexts like the 'manage tags' dialog), or the prettier sibling-processed 'display' tags (as you see in read contexts like a normal file search page)
    /get_files/file_metadata now returns 'ipfs_multihashes' structure, which gives ipfs service key(s) and multihashes
    If you run /get_files/search_files with no search predicates, or with only tags that do not parse correctly so you end up with no tags, the search now returns nothing, rather than system:everything. I will likely make this call raise errors on bad tags in future
    The client api help is updated to talk about these
    There's also unit tests for them
    Client api version is now 33

    Popup messages:

    The background workings of the popup toaster are rewritten. it looks the same, but instead of technically being its own window, it is now embedded into the main gui as a raised widget. this should clear up a whole heap of jank this window has caused over the years. for instance, in some OSes/Window Managers, when a new subscription popup appeared, the main window would activate and steal focus. this annoying thing should, fingers crossed, no longer happen
    I have significantly rewritten the layout routine of the popup toaster. beyond a general iteration of code cleanup, popup messages should size their width more sensibly, expand to available space, and retract better after needing to grow wide
    Unfortunately, some layout jank does remain, mostly in popup messages that change height significantly, like error tracebacks. they can sometimes take two frames to resize correctly, which can look flickery. I am still doing something 'bad' here, in Qt terms, and have to hack part of the layout update routine. let me know what else breaks for you, and I will revisit this in future
    The 'BUGFIX: Hide the popup toaster when the main gui is minimised/loses focus' checkboxes under options->popups are retired. since the toaster is now embedded into the main gui just like any search page, these issues no longer apply. I am leaving the two 'freeze the popup toaster' checkboxes in place, just so we can play around with some virtual desktop issues I know some users are having, but they may soon go too
    The popup toaster components are updated to use Qt signals rather than borked object callables
    As a side thing, the popup toaster can no longer grow taller than the main window size

[Fixed]

- Java 18 incompatibility issues have been fixed.
- Backup and Restore has been fixed. It now uses Java standard functionality to create and restore backups.
- Server to client communication has been fixed. The old implementation has been removed and server to client communication has been replaced with a Gson-backed functionality. The old code used a by now obsolete library. Gson is well maintained and it allowed me to pick and select if and how items, pictures, etc are communicated between the client and the server. This also means that the speed has been improved significantly.
- Image server is back up again (old implementation was not compatible with the new Java version)
- Various small compatibility issues have been fixed.
- e-Book import has been fixed.

[Changed / Updated]

- Java version support has been changed from Java v1.7 to Java Second Edition v18 (!)

- Code optimizations to bring Data Crow's code in line with the latest version of Java.
- Tika has been upgraded to upgraded to version 2.4.1.
- PDFBox has been upgraded to 2.0.26. There a version 3 release candidate which I wanted to adopt but it's not compatible with Tika 2.4.1.
- Added better ISBN / EAN management and incorporated this into the e-book file import and various other places.
- Image type support has been improved and now allows for the following file types to be imported / used as picture:
bmp, tf8, pic, rgbe, tif, ico, sgi, ham8, ham, wbmp, pam, pict, jbig2, ilbm, tpic, png,
raw, JBIG2, pfm, lbm, pbm, psb, rgb8, emf, psd, cur, deep, tiff, pntg, gif, btiff, mac,

Changelog


    Autocomplete dropdown:

    The floating version of the autocomplete dropdown gets the same backend treatment the media hovers and the popup toaster recently received--it is no longer its own window, but now a normal widget floating inside its parent. it should look pretty much the same, but a variety of bugs are eliminated. clients with many search pages open now only have one top level window, rather than potentially hundreds of hidden ones
    If you have turned off floating a/c windows because of graphical bugs, please try turning them back on today. the checkbox is under options->search.
    As an additional consequence, I have decided to no longer allow 'floating' autocomplete windows in dialogs. I never liked how this worked or looked, overlapping the apply/cancel buttons, and it is not technically possible to make this work with the new tech, so they are always embedded in dialogs now. the related checkbox in options->search is gone as a result
    If you ok or cancel on the 'OR' buttons, focus is now preserved back to the dropdown
    A bunch of weird interwindow-focus-juggling and 'what happens if the user's window manager allows them to close a floating a/c dropdown'-style code is cleared out. with simpler logic, some flicker jank is simply eliminated
    If you move the window around, any displaying floating a/c dropdowns now glide along with them; previously it updated at 10fps
    The way the client swaps a new thumbnail grid in when results are loaded or dismissed is faster and more atomic. there is less focus-cludge, and as a result the autocomplete is better at retaining focus and staying displayed as changes to the search state occur
    The way scroll events are caught is also improved, so the floating dropdown should fix its position on scroll more smoothly and capably

    Date system predicates:

    This affects system:import time; :modified time; and :last viewed
    Updated the system:time UI for time delta so you are choosing 'before', 'since', and '+/- 15% of'
    Updated the system:time UI for calendar date so you are choosing 'before', 'since', 'the day of', and '+/- a month of' rather than the ugly and awkward '<' stuff
    Updated the calendar calculations with calendar time-based system predicates, so '~=' operator now does plus or minus one month to the same calendar day, no matter how many days were in that month (previously it did +/- 30 days)
    The system predicate parser now reassigns the '=' in a given 'system:time_type = time_delta' to '~='

    Misc:

    'sort files by import time' now sorts files correctly even when two files were imported in the same second. thanks to the user who thought of the solution here!
    The 'recent' system predicates you see listed in the 'flesh out system pred' dialogs now have a 'X' button that lets you remove them from the recent/favourites
    Fixed the crash that I disabled some code for last week and reactivated the code. the collect-by dropdown is back to refreshing itself whenever you change the settings in options->sort/collect. furthermore, this guy now spams less behind the scenes, only reinitialising if there are actual changes to the sort/collect settings
    Brushed up some network content-range checking logic. this data is tracked better, and now any time a given 206 range response has insufficient data for what its header said, this is noted in the log. it doesn't raise an error, and the network job will still try to resume from the truncated point, but let's see how widespread this is. if a server delivers more data than specified, this now does raise an error
    Fixed a tiny bit of logic in how the server calculates changes in sibling and parent petition counts. I am not sure if I fixed the miscount the janitors have seen
    If a janitor asks for a petition and the current petition count for that type is miscounted, leading to a 404, the server now quickly recalculates that number for the next request
    Updated the system predicate parser to replace all underscores with whitespace, so it can accept system predicates that use_underscores_instead_of_whilespace. I don't think this messes up any of the parsing except in an odd case where a file service might have an underscore'd name, but we'll cross that bridge if and when we get to it
    Added information about 'PRAGMA quick_check;' to 'help my db is broke.txt'
    Patched a unit test that would rarely fail because of random data (issue #1217)

    Client api:

    /get_files/search_files:

    Fixed the recent bug where an empty tag input with 'search all' permission would raise an error. entering no search predicates now returns an empty list in all cases, no matter your permissions (issue #1250)
    Entering invalid tags now raises a 400 error
    Improved the tag permissions check. only non-wildcard tags are now tested against the filter
    Updated my unit tests to catch these cases

    /add_tags/search_tags:

    A unit test now explicitly tests that empty autocomplete input results in no tags
    The Client API now responds with Access-Control-Max-Age=86400 on OPTIONS checks, which should reduce some CORS pre-flight spam
    Client api version is now 34

    Misc cleanup:

    Cleaned up the signalling code in the 'recent system predicate' buttons
    Shuffled some page widget and layout code to make the embedded a/c dropdown work
    Deleted a bunch of a/c event handling and forced layout and other garbage code
    Worked on some linter warnings

(https://s26.postimg.cc/fmlbof0jd/screenshot_1213.png)
The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

Changelog


    Misc:

    Fixed show/hiding the main gui splitters after a regression in v502. also, keyboard focus after these events should now be less jank
    Thanks to a user, the Deviant Art parser we rolled back to recently now gets video support. I also added artist tag parsing like the api parser used to do
    If you use the internal client database backup system, it now says in the menu when it was last run. this menu doesn't update often, so I put a bit of buffer in where it says 'did one recently'. let me know if the numbers here are ever confusing
    Fixed a bug where the database menu was not immediately updating the first time you set a backup location
    If an apng has sub-millisecond frame durations (seems to be jitter-apngs that were created oddly), these are now each rounded up to 1ms. any apngs that previously appeared to have 0 duration now have borked-tiny but valid duration and will now import ok
    The client now catches 529 error responses from servers (service is overloaded) and treats them like a 429/509 bandwidth problem, waiting for a bit before retrying. more work may be needed here
    The new popup toaster should restore from minimised better
    Fixed a subtle bug where trashing and untrashing a file when searching the special 'all my files' domain would temporarily sort that file at the front/end of sorting by 'import time'
    Added 'dateutil present' to help->about and reordered all the entries for readability
    Brushed up the network job response-bytes-size counting logic a little more
    Cleaned up the EVT_ICONIZE event processing wx/Qt patch

    Running from source is now easy on Windows:

    As I expect to drop Qt5 support in the builds next week, we need an easy way for Windows 7 and other older-OS users to run from source. I am by no means an expert at this, but I have written some easy-setup scripts that can get you running the client in Windows from nothing in a few minutes with no python experience
    The help is updated to reflect this, with more pointers to 'running from source', and that page now has a new guide that takes you through it all in simple steps
    There's a client-user.bat you can edit to add your own launch parameters, and a setup_help.bat to build the help too
    All the requirements.txts across the program have had a full pass. all are now similarly formatted for easy future editing. it is now simple to select whether you want Qt5 or Qt6, and seeing the various differences between the documents is now obvious
    The .gitignore has been updated to not stomp over your venv, mpv/ffmpeg/sqlite, or client-user.bat
    Feedback on how this works and how to make it better would be appreciated, and once we are happy with the workflow, I will invite Linux and macOS users to generate equivalent .sh and .command scripts so we are multiplatform-easy

    Build stuff:

    This is all wizard nonsense, so you can ignore it. I am mostly just noting it here for my records. tl;dr: I fixed more boot problems, now and in the future
    Just when I was getting on top of the latest boot problems, we had another one last week, caused by yet another external library that updated unusually, this time just a day after the normal release. it struck some users who run from source (such as AUR), and the macOS hotfix I put out on saturday. it turns out PySide6 6.4.0 is not yet supported by qtpy. since these big libraries' bleeding edge versions are common problems, I have updated all the requirements.txts across the program to set specific versions for qtpy, PySide2/PySide6, opencv-python-headless, requests, python-mpv, and setuptools (issue #1254)
    Updated all the requirements.txts with 'python-dateutil', which has spotty default support and whose absence broke some/all of the macOS and Docker deployments last week
    Added failsafe code in case python-dateutil is not available
    Pylzma is no longer in the main requirements.txt. it doesn't have a wheel (and hence needs compiler tech to pip install), and it is only useful for some weird flash files. UPDATE: with the blessed assistance of stackexchange, I rewrote the 'decompress lzma-compressed flash file' routine to re-munge the flash header into a proper lzma header and use the python default 'lzma' library, so 'pylzma' is no longer needed and removed from all requirements.txts
    Updated most of the actions in the build script to use updated node16 versions. node12 just started getting deprecation warnings. there is more work to do
    Replaced the node12 pip installer action with a manual command on the reworked requirements.txts
    Replaced most of the build script's uses of 'set-output', which just started getting deprecation warnings. there is more work to do

Changelog


    Qt5:

    As a reminder, I am no longer supporting Qt5 with the official builds. if you are on Windows 7 (and I have heard at least one version of Win 8.1), or a similarly old OS, you likely cannot run the official builds now. if this is you, please check the 'running from source' guide in the help, which will allow you to keep updating the program. this process is now easy in Windows and should be similarly easy on other platforms soon

    Misc:

    If you run from source in windows, the program should now have its own taskbar group and use the correct hydrus icon. if you try and pin it to taskbar, it will revert to the 'python' icon, but you can give a shortcut to a batch file an icon and pin that to start
    Unfortunately, I have to remove the 'deviant art tag search' downloader this week. they killed the old API we were using, and what remaining open date-paginated search results the site offers is obfuscated and tokenised (no permanent links), more than I could quickly unravel. other downloader creators are welcome to give it a go. if you have a subscription for a da tag search, it will likely complain on its next run. please pause it and try to capture the best artists from that search (until DA kill their free artist api, then who knows what will happen). the oauth/phone app menace marches on
    Focus on the thumbnail panel is now preserved whenever it swaps out for another (like when you refresh the search)
    Fixed an issue where cancelling service selection on database->c&r->repopulate truncated would create an empty modal message
    Fixed a stupid typo in the recently changed server petition counting auto-fixing code

    Importer/exporter sidecar expansion:

    When you import or export files from/to disk, either manually or automatically, the option to pull or send tags to .txt files is now expanded:

    You can now import or export URLs
    You can now read or write .json files
    You can now import from or export to multiple sidecars, and have multiple separate pipelines
    You can now give sidecar files suffixes, for ".tags.txt" and similar
    You can now filter and transform all the strings in this pipeline using the powerful String Processor just like in the parsing system
    This affects manual imports, manual exports, import folders, and export folders. instead of smart .txt checkboxes, there's now a button leading to some nested dialogs to customise your 'routers' and, in manual imports, a new page tab in the 'add tags before import' window
    This bones of this system was already working in the background when I introduced it earlier this year, but now all components are exposed
    New export folders now start with the same default metadata migration as set in the last manual file export dialog
    This system will expand in future. most important is to add a 'favourites' system so you can easily save/load your different setups. then adding more content types (e.g. ratings) and .xml. I'd also like to add purely internal file-to-itself datatype transformation (e.g. pulling url:(url) tags and converting them to actual known urls, and vice versa)
    Importer/exporter sidecar expansion (boring stuff);
    Split the importer/exporter objects into separate importers and exporters. existing router objects will update and split their internal objects safely
    All objects in this system can now describe themselves
    All import/export nodes now produce appropriate example texts for string processing and parsing UI test panels
    Filename Tagging Options objects no longer track neighbouring .txt file importing, and their UI removes it too. Import Folders will suck their old data on update and convert to metadata routers
    Wrote a json sidecar importer that takes a parsing formula
    Wrote a json sidecar exporter that takes a list of dictionary names to export to. it will edit an existing file
    Wrote some ui panels to edit single file metadata migration routers
    Wrote some ui panels to edit single file metadata migration importers
    Wrote some ui panels to edit single file metadata migration exporters
    Updated edit export folder panel to use the new UI. it was already using a full static version of the system behind the scenes; now this is exposed and editable
    Updated the manual file export panel to use the new UI. it was using a half version of the system before--now the default options are updated to the new router object and you can create multiple exports
    Updated import folders to use the new UI. the filename tagging options no longer handles .txt, it is now on a separate button on the import folder
    Updated manual file imports to use the new UI. the 'add tags before import' window now has a 'sidecars' page tab, which lets you edit metadata routers. it updates a path preview list live with what it expects to parse
    A full suite of new unit tests now checks the router, the four import nodes, and the four export nodes thoroughly
    Renamed ClientExportingMetadata to ClientMetadataMigration and moved to the metadata module. refactored the importers, exporters, and shared methods to their own files in the same module
    Created a gui.metadata module for the new router and metadata import/export widgets and panels
    Created a gui.exporting module for the existing export folder and manual export gui code
    Reworked some of the core importer/exporter objects and inheritance in clientmetadatamigration
    Updated the HDDImport object and creation pipeline to handle metadata routers (as piped from the new sidecars tab)
    When the hdd import or import folder is set to delete original files, now all defined sidecars are deleted along with the media file
    Cleaned up a bunch of related metadata importer/exporter code
    Cleaned import folder code
    Cleaned hdd importer code

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

Changelog


    Exif update:

    The client now has the ability to check your image files for basic human-readable metadata. sometimes this is timing data for a gif, often it is something like DPI, and for many of the recent ML-generated pngs, this is the original generating prompt. this is now viewable in the same way as EXIF, on the same panel. since this (and future expansions) are not EXIF per se, the overarching UI around here is broadly renamed 'embedded metadata'
    The client now scans for and remembers if files have EXIF or human-readable embedded metadata. two predicates, 'system:image has exif' and 'system:image has human-readable embedded metadata' let you search for them. the vast majority of images have some sort of human-readable embedded metadata, so 'system:no human-readable embedded metadata' may typically be the more useful predicate in the latter case
    The system predicate parser can handle these new system preds
    To keep the system predicate list tidy, the new system preds are wrapped with 'has icc profile' into a meta-system predicate 'system:embedded metadata', like how 'system:dimensions' works
    The media viewer now knows ahead of time if a media has embedded metadata. the button in the media viewer's top hover window that shows this is no longer a cog but a little text-on-window image, and it now only appears if the file has data to show. the tooltip previews whether this is EXIF, other data, or both
    This knowledge is obviously now generated on file imports going forward, and new file maintenance jobs can retroactively scan for it
    All your existing image files and gifs/apngs are scheduled for this work. they will catch up in the background over the coming weeks
    The duplicate filter shows if one or both files have exif or other human-readable data. I had written off adding new 'scores' to the dupe filter panel until a full overhaul, but this was a simple copy/paste of the icc profile statement, so I snuck it in. also, these statements now only appear if for one image it is true and the other is false--no more 'they both have icc profiles m8', which is not a helpful comparison statement
    Added some unit tests for this new tech
    A future expansion here will be to record the specific keys and values into the database so you can search specifically over those values (e.g. 'EXIF ISO level > 400', or 'has "parameters" text value')

    Misc:

    The 'reverse page drop shift behaviour' checkbox in options->gui pages is replaced with four checkboxes. two govern whether page drops should chase the drop, either normally or with shift held down, and two new ones govern whether hydrus should dynamically navigate tabs as you move a media or page drag and drop over the tab bar. set them how you like!
    A new EXPERIMENTAL checkbox just beneath these lets you change what the mouse wheel does to a row of page tabs--by default, the wheel will change tab selection, but if you often have an overloaded row (i.e. they overspill the bar width and you see the left/right arrows), you can set the wheel to scroll/pan the bar instead
    The 'if file is missing, remove record' job is now split into two--one that leaves no deletion record (old behaviour), and one that does (new). this new job lets you do some 'yes and I want it to stay gone' tasks like if you are syncing an old database backup to a newer client_files structure
    Thanks to user pointing out what was needed, turned on a beta 'darkmode detection' in Qt for Windows. if you launch the client in official Windows 'Apps darkmode' (under Windows settings->Colors), it should now start with your system darkmode colours. switching between light and dark mode while the client is running is pretty buggy (also my Explorer windows are buggy at this too jej), but this is a step forward. fingers crossed this feature matures and gets reliable multiplatform support in future (issue #756)

    Fixes:

    Thanks to a user, the twitter downloader is fixed. seems like twitter (maybe due to Elon's new team?) changed one tiny name in the API we use. let's see if they change anything more significant in the coming weeks (issue #1268)
    Thanks to a user the 'gelbooru 0.1.11 file page parser' stops getting borked 'Rating: ' tags, and I fixed its source time fetch too. I'm pretty sure these broke because of the multiline string processing change a couple months ago, sorry for the trouble!
    Fixed a recent stupid typo that broke the media viewer's do an edge pan' action (issue #1266)
    Fixed an issue with the furry.booru.org url classes, which were normalising URLs to http rather than https for some accidental reason
    I finally figured out the weird bug where the colour picker dialog would sometimes treat mouse moves as mouse drags over the colour-selection gradient box. this is due to a bug in Qt6 where if you have a stylesheet with a certain hover value set, the colour picker goes bananas. I tried many things to fix this and finally settled on a sledgehammer: if you have the offending value in your stylesheet, it now does some stuff that takes a second or two of lag to launch the colour picker and a second or two of lag to exit it. sorry, but that fixes it! if you want to skip the lag in the options dialog, set your stylesheet to 'default' for the duration (issue #1260)
    Fixed an issue where the new sidecar importer system was not correctly cleaning tags (removing extra whitespace, lowercasing) before committing them to the database! if you got hit with this, a simple restart should fix the incorrect labels (it wasn't actually writing bad tags to the database), but if a restart does not fix it, please run database->check and repair->fix invalid tags (issue #1264)
    Fixed an issue opening the new metadata sidecar edit UI when you had removed and replaced the original 'my tags' service
    Think I fixed a bug in the duplicate filter where if a file in the current pair is deleted (and removed from view), the index/pair tracking would desynchronise and cause an error if you attempted to rewind to the first pair
    I fixed the reported 'committable decisions' count for duplicate filters set to do no duplicate content merge at all

    Build version woes:

    All the builds now run on python 3.9 (Linux and Windows were 3.8 previously). any users on systems too old to run 3.9 are encouraged to run from source instead
    The linux build is rolled back to the older version of python-mpv. thanks to the users who helped me test this, and the specific user who let me know about the different version incompatibilities going on. basically we can't move to the new mpv on the Linux build for a little while, so the official release is rolling back to safe and stable. if you are on a newer Linux flavour, like 22.04, I recommend you pursue running from source, which is now easy on Linux
    I am considering, in let's say two or three months, no longer supporting the Linux build. we'll see how well the running from source easy-setup scripts work out, but if they aren't a hassle, that really is the proper way to do things on Linux, and it'll solve many crashes and mpv issues

    Running from source is now simple and easy for everyone:

    Transcribed the setup .bat files in the base directory to .sh for linux users and .command for macOS users! the 'running from source' help is updated too. all users are now welcome to try it out!
    Folded the 'setup_venv_qt5.bat' script into the main 'setup_venv.bat' script as a user choice for 'advanced' setup, and expanded it with prompts for qt5, mpv, and opencv
    The setup files now say your python version and guide you through all choices
    As Windows 8.1 users have reported problems with Qt6, the help and script recommendations on Qt5 are now <=8.1, not just 7. but it is easy to switch now, so if you want to play around, let me know what you discover

    Boring running from source and help gubbins:

    Took the 'update' option out of the 'setup-venv.bat' script. this process was not doing what I thought it would and was not particularly useful. the script now always reinstalls after user hits Enter to continue, which is very reliable, gets newer versions of libraries when available, and almost always takes less than a minute
    Updated the github readme and website index to point obviously and directly at the getting started guide
    Took out some of the bloviating from the initial introduction page
    Updated the running from source help to talk about the new advanced setup and added a couple extra warnings
    Updated the running from source help to talk about Linux and macOS
    If qtpy is missing at the very start of the program, a new error catch asks the user if they installed and activated their venv correctly (should also catch people who run client.py right off the bat without reading the docs)
    Deleted the old user-written help document about which packages to use with which Linux flavours, as the author says it is now out of date and modern pip as used by the scripts navigates it better nowadays
    The setup_venv.bat now checks and informs the user if they do not have python installed
    Cleaned up the flow control of the batch files. more conditionals, fewer gotos
    To keep the base install dir clean, moved the 'advanced' setup script's cut-up requirements.txts to a new folder under static/requirements. if you are manually setting up a venv and need unusual libraries, check them out for known good specific versions, otherwise you are set with the basic requirements.txt
    To keep the install dir clean, moved the obscure 'build' requirements.txts to a new folder under static/requirements. these are mostly just notes for me when setting up a new test dev environment

    Cleanup and other boring stuff:

    As recommended by the pyopenssl page, I moved the server self-signed cert generation routine to 'cryptography' (which I'm pretty sure pyopenssl was just wrapping anyway). cryptography is added to the requir...

    Misc:

    Fixed an issue where you could set 'all known tags' in the media-tag exporter box in the sidecars system
    If a media-tag exporter in the sidecars system is set to an invalid (missing) tag service, the dialog now protests when you try to OK it. also, when you boot into this dialog, it will now moan about the invalid service. also, new media-tag exporters will always start with a valid local tag service.
    Qt import error states are handled better. when the client boots, the various 'could not find Qt' errors at different qtpy and QtCore import stages are now handled separately. the Qt selected by qtpy, if any, is reported, as is the state of QT_API and whether hydrus thought it was importable. it seems like there have been a couple of users caught by something like system-wide QT_API env variables here, which this should reveal better in boot-crash logs from now on
    All the new setup scripts in the base directory now push their location as the new CWD when they start, and they pop back to your original when they exit. you should be able to call them from anywhere now!
    I've written a 'setup_desktop.sh' install script for Linux users to 'install' a hydrus.desktop file for the current install location to your applications directory. thanks to the user who made the original hydrus.desktop file for the help here
    I fixed the focus when you open a 'edit predicate' panel that only has buttons, like 'has audio'/'no audio'. top button should have focus again, so you can hit enter quick
    Added updated link to hydownloader on the client api page

    Dupes apply better to groups of thumbs:

    Tl;dr: when the user sets a 'copy both ways' duplicate file status on more than two thumbnails, the duplicate metadata merge options are applied better now
    Advanced explanation: previously, all merge updates were calculated before applying the updates, so when applied to a group of interconnected relationships, the nodes that were not directly connected to each other were not syncing data. now, all merge updates are calculated and applied to each pair in turn, and then the whole batch is repeated once more, ensuring two-way transitivity. for instance, if you are set to copy tags in both directions and set 'A is the best' of three files 'ABC', and B has tag 'x' and C has 'y', then previously A would get 'x' and 'y', but B would not get 'y' and C would not get 'x'. now, A gets 'x' before the AC merge is calculated, so A and C get x, and then the whole operation is repeated, so when AB is re-calculated, B now gets 'y' from the updated A. same thing if you set to archive if either file is archived--now that archived status will propagate across the whole group in one action

    Client api:

    The new 'tags' structure in /get_files/file_metadata now has the 'all known tags' service's tags
    The 'file_services' structure in /get_files/file_metadata now states service name, type, and pretty type, like 'tags'
    /get_services now says the service type and type_pretty, like 'tags'. /get_services may be reformatted to a service_key key'd Object at some point, since it uses an old custom human-readable service type as Object key atm and I'd rather we move to the same labels and references for everything, but we'll see
    Updated the client api help with more example result data for the above changes (and other stuff like 'all my files')
    Updated the client api unit tests to deal with the above changes
    Client api version is now 36

    Server/janitor improvements:

    I recommend server admins update their servers this week! everything old still works, but jannies who update have new abilities that won't work until you update
    The petition processing page now has an 'account id' text field. paste an account id in there, and you'll get the petition counts just for that account! the petitions requested will also only be for that account!
    If you get a 404 on a 'get petition' call (either due to another janitor clearing the last, or from a server count cache miscount), it no longer throws an error. instead, a popup appears for five seconds saying 'hey, there wasn't one after all, please hit refresh counts'

    Boring server improvements:

    Refactored the account-fetching routine a little. some behind the scenes account identifier code, which determines an account from a mapping or file record, is now cleaner and more cleanly separated from the 'fetch account from account key' calls. account key is the master account identifier henceforth, and any content lookups will look up the account key and then do normal account lookup after. I will clean this further in the near future
    A new server call looks up the account key from a content object explicitly; this will get more use in future
    All the 'get number of x' server calls now support 'get number of x made by y' for account-specific counting. these numbers aren't cached, but should be fairly quick for janitorial purposes
    Same deal for petitions, the server can now fetch petitions by a particular user, if any
    Added/updated unit tests for these changes
    General server code cleanup

Changelog


    Misc:

    Added a shortcut action to the 'media' set for 'file relationships: show x', where x is duplicates, potential duplicates, alternates, or false positives, just like the action buried in the thumbnail right-click menu. this actually works in both thumbs and the canvas.
    Fixed file deletes not getting processed in the duplicate filter when there were no normal duplicate actions committed in a batch. sorry for the trouble here--duplicate decisions and deletes are now counted and reported in the confirmation dialogs as separate numbers
    As an experiment, the duplicate filter now says (+50%, -33%) percentage differences in the file size comparison statement. while the numbers here are correct, I'm not sure if this is helpful or awkward. maybe it should be phrased differently--let me know
    Url classes get two new checkboxes this week: 'do not allow any extra path components/parameters', which will stop a match if the testee URL is 'longer' than the url class's definition. this should help with some difficult 'path-nested URLs aren't matching to the right URL Class' problems
    When you import hard drive files manually or in an import folder, files with .txt, .json, or .xml suffixes are now ignored in the file scanning phase. when hydrus eventually supports text files and arbitrary files, the solution will be nicer here, but this patch makes the new sidecar system nicer to work with in the meantime without, I hope, causing too much other fuss
    The 'tags' button in the advanced-mode 'sort files' control now hides/shows based on the sort type. also, the asc/desc button now hides/shows when it is invalid (filetype, hash, random), rather than disable/enable. there was a bit more signals-cleanup behind the scenes here too
    Updated the 'could not set up qtpy/QtCore' error handling yet again to try to figure out this macOS App boot problem some users are getting. the error handling now says what the initial QT_API env variable was and tries to import every possible Qt and prints the whole error for each. hopefully we'll now see why PySide6 is not loading
    Cleaned up the 'old changelog' page. all the '.' separators are replaced with proper header tags and I rejiggered some of the ul and li elements to interleave better. its favicon is also fixed. btw if you want to edit 500-odd elements at a time in a 2MB document, PyCharm is mostly great. multi-hundred simultaneous edit hung for about five minutes per character, but multiline regex Find and Replace was instant
    Added a link to a user-written guide for running Hydrus on Windows in Anaconda to the 'installing' help
    Fixed some old/invalid dialog locations in the 'how to build a downloader' help

    Client api:

    A new /get_files/file_hashes command lets you look up any of the sha256, md5, sha1, sha512 hashes that hydrus knows about using any of the other hashes. if you have a bunch of md5 and want to figure out if you have them, or if you want to get the md5s of your files and run them against an external check, this is now possible
    Added help and unit tests for this new command
    Added a service enum to the /get_services Client API help
    Client api version is now 37
    As a side thing, I rejiggered the 'what non-sha256 hash do these sha256 hashes have?' test here. it now returns a mapping, allowing for more efficient mass lookups, and it no longer creates new sha256 records for novel hashes. feel free to spam this on new sha256 hashes if you like

    Interesting serverside:

    The tag repository now manages a tag filter. admins with 'modify options' permission can alter it under the new menu command services->administrate services->tag repo->edit tag filter.
    Any time new tags are pended to the tag repository, they are now washed through the tag filter. any that don't pass are silently discarded
    Normal users will regularly fetch the tag filter as long as their client is relatively new. they can review it under a new read-only Tag Filter panel from review services. if their client is super old (or the server), account sync and the UI should fail gracefully
    If you are in advanced mode and your client account-syncs and discovers the tag filter has changed, it will make a popup with a summary of the changes. I am not sure how spammy/annoying this will be, so let me know if you'd rather turn them off or auto-hide after two hours or something
    Future updates will have more feedback on manage tags dialog and similar, just to let you know there and then if an entered tag is not wanted. also, admins who change the tag filter will be able to retroactively remove tags that apply to the filter, not just stop new ones. I'd also like some sibling hard-replace to go along with this, so we don't accidentalyl remove tags that are otherwise sibling'd to be good--we'll see
    The hydrus server won't bug out so much at unusual errors now. previously, I ingrained that any error during any request would kick off automatic delays, but I have rejiggered it a bit so this mostly just happens during automatic work like update downloading

    Boring serverside:

    Added get/set and similar to the tag repo's until-now-untouched tag filter
    Wrote a nice helper method that splays two tag filters into their added/changed/deleted rules and another that can present that in human-readable format. it prints to the server log whenever a human changes the tag filter, and will be used in future retroactive syncing
    Cleaned up how the service options are delivered to the client. previously, there would have been a version desync pain if I had ever updated the tag filter internal version. now, the service options delivered to the client are limited to python primitives, atm just update period and nullification period, and tag filter and other complex objects will have their own get calls and fail in quiet isolation
    I fixed some borked nullification period initialisation serverside
    Whenever a tag filter describes itself, if either black or whitelist have more than 12 rules, it now summarises rather than listing every single one

- No pop up message anymore when no search results are found for an online search. Shown in message log instead.

- Added wait time between requests for all online services.

- Long text fields (like description) opened a text view on double click. This has been changed to CTRL + mouse click as double click is also used to select a single word.

- Small dialog changes to the item form tabs; saving will now close the dialog and added a title to the dialog.

[Fixed]

- Fixed a NullPointerException when performing a mass update using previous online search history.

- None of the online services were set up to take the maximum number of search results into account.

- URL field launcher did not work for HTTPS hyper links.

- Scrolling in the card view was sometimes reversed.

- All settings files for module were missing, triggering a reset of existing user settings as well as having incorrect settings after a clean install.

- Settings and such were not stored to disk before creating a backup.

- On new installations on Windows the Font selection would change on saving any of the settings.

- Default data was missing in Data Crow 4.3; none of the categories and such were created.

- Fixed an issue where a picture or file is selected even if the file choose action was cancelled.

- There was an issue with the Item Form Settings; it did a reset of the fields on opening of the dialog.

- Fixed an issue where new translations are not updated for existing Data Crow installations. Now, when you install a new version of Data Crow it will load the language file from your user folder and adds missing translations from the language file located in the installation folder. If there are still missing translations these are added from the default English language file.

- Horizontal / vertical setting not always applied correctly to the quick view.

- Small fixes for the German translation.

Changelog


    Misc:

    Added an option 'mouse wheel can "scroll" through menu buttons' to options->gui. this turns off the behaviour where a mouse wheel event over, for instance, the file sort asc/desc button, will change the button's value rather than scrolling the underlying panel. if you found this annoying, you can finally turn it off!
    Fixed an annoying 'save service' bug that some users saw last week with the introduction of serverside Tag Filters. some users had an old datatype in their service data storage--a legacy issue--but the system now coerces all datatypes and direct sub-objects to a saveable format on load or update
    The tag washing system now collapses more types of whitespace character to space. mostly this means tab is now converted to space, but some unicode stuff goes too
    The hangul filler character u3164 is no longer permitted as a namespace or subtag. it can be in longer tags, but isn't allowed on its own (where it appears to be a blank space). (hydev saw one in the wild, probably from some cheeky post title)
    Let me know if you run across a newly invalid tag already in your system and the UI goes bananas--ideally hydrus should now catch this and either fix itself or report with a polite note, but let's see. if things go crazy, run database->check and repair->fix invaliid tags
    Improved some image transparency detection and slicing logic. it is more accurate and saves more memory now. also, the system that saves thumbnails will more reliably use jpegs when it doesn't need png's transparency
    Fixed some PSD thumbs showing a fully transparent transparency layer
    Fixed a bug where you could enter capital letters into the namespace colour list in 'tag presentation' options panel
    The default twitter downloaders are all renamed to remove the confusing and technical 'syndication' label
    'speedcopy' is now an optional supported library. a couple users have suggested this to make network copies on Windows and Linux much faster. I'd like some advanced users who run from source to try adding it to their venvs, and we'll see how it works out IRL in different situations (you can see if it is loaded under help->about)
    If you run from source, the 'advanced' setup route now offers a (t)est Qt install, which sets PySide6 6.4.1 (up from 6.3.21). feel free to try it out--it works well for me, but I want to test it more before trying to roll it to the releases
    In a side thing, thanks to the user who walked me through setting up signed commits to github with my own PGP key. you can see my new key in the contacts help page, id 76249F053212133C, and I am now committing with it. I'm not very familiar with the sheer mechanics of this tech, so bear with me, but I'm pretty sure I can sign or encrypt something if ever needed

    MacOS build fix:

    Since v505, many macOS users were unable to boot the built app. it has taken multiple rounds of back and forth with users, but we figured it out. (looks like pyoxidizer updating from 0.22.0 to 0.23.0 simply broke qtpy/Qt bindings, so we force a rollback this week)
    Also, the macOS app moves from PySide6 to PyQt6 this week. they are basically the same, but PyQt6 packages into a 258MB dmg, less than half the 548MB PySide6 one!
    Let me know if the macOS app gives any more trouble. otherwise, to the people who helped out here, thank you very much for the help!

    Mostly boring tag filter panel:

    Removed the 'add' buttons; added 'delete' buttons to the simple whitelist and blacklist panels; added 'block everything' to simple blacklist panel
    The panel now talks about the special sibling and namespace rules when you edit an explicit blacklist-mode-only filter (the tag import options blacklist works this way)
    The 'you didn't need to add that exception' text and 'filter is too complicated for this panel' texts now show/hide rather than waste empty space
    Some of the simple-advanced interactions are better, but there's still some logical bork here. mostly stuff like when you hit the 'unnamespace' checkbox in the whitelist panel, it gets needlessly added to the 'except' column in the advanced, rather than just removed from the advanced 'exclude'. I'll fix this up in the near future
    The two namespace checkbox lists are now sized more appropriately
    The white/blacklist panels disable more simply and reliably

    Boring cleanup:

    The confusing 'view this file's duplicates' menu label, which was an artifact of an old submenu label, is removed. if the duplicate menu wants to present the 'view' commands for two locations, it'll title with the respective location, otherwise the commands speak for themselves, no label
    Some old 'check(er) timings' nomenclature is renamed to 'checker options' across the board
    The hydrus serialisable dictionary now washes any nested lists or dicts to hydrus serialised equivalents, which should stop situations like the save service bug in future
    The hydrus serialisable list can now handle a mix of hydrus serialisables and python primitives. it also washes its lists or dicts to serialisable equivalents
    Improved the data-stability of some image channel slicing
    Fixed some PIL fallback thumbnail generation, and improved its 'has transparency' png/jpeg decision-making
    Fixed the main thumbnail loader being confused at times about which thumbnail mime to load with. the check I have added is ultra-fast on data we are loading anyway, so we shouldn't notice a difference, but if you get slow thumb loads, let me know
    Fixed the media container embed buttons using the file mime rather than the thumb mime when loading thumbnails (again causing transparency issues)
    Fixed more generally bad mime handling in the thumbnail generation routine that could have caused more unusual transparency handling for clip, psd, or flash files

The Unlicense

Changelog


    Notes:

    Duplicate metadata merge options now supports note merging. you can copy from worse to better or in both directions, with a couple extra conflict-resolution options that are a subset of note import options and have reasonable defaults.
    The default note merge options are to go from worse to better for 'set as better' and both directions for 'they are the same', renaming notes on conflicts. your existing duplicate metadata merge options will receive these settings on update, so if you don't want this, update your settings from the duplicate filter page
    The manage notes dialog gets copy and paste buttons. these will copy all the current notes and paste them to another instance of the panel, using the default (extend if possible, otherwise rename) conflict resolution rules
    If an automatic system like a parser gives a note text that already exists on the file, the Note Import Options now discards it in all cases, no matter the names involved. no more automatic dupes!
    ADVANCED: note import options (and related note add/merge operations that use it) now scan all prefix-matching note names for 'new note is already in file' and 'new note is an extension of a note already in file' tests. this improves a former fix to the 'successive parses of two sites with the same note name but different note text cause one of them to be dupe-added as (2), (3), (4), renames etc...' bug. the initial (1) rename will be scanned and recognised as 'already in file' and ignored or now extended as the settings say, just as if the desired name were hit. thanks to the reports here--I missed the logic the first time around
    It would be nice to have 'manage notes' for multiple files at once--this is still a future goal

    Notes client api:

    The /add_notes/set_notes now takes some new parameters if you want to apply the adapted Note Import Options merge logic rather than figure out renames and extensions yourself
    /add_notes/set_notes now returns the changes it made, which in the new mode may not be exactly what you instructed
    Added unit tests and help to reflect the above
    Client api version is now 38

    Misc:

    I fixed up how shift/ctrl/drag selection works on taglists. like with the recent thumbnail selection update, you can now 'undo' a shift-select with subsequent clicks or 'drag undo', and the list remembers what was selected beforehand. ctrl-shift-select is also a more reliable 'deselect range'. both mouse drag selection and ctrl-drag selection use this logic, have fewer index bugs, and the ctrl-drag now chooses at the start whether this drag will be selection or deselection based on your initial click that started the drag. have a play with it--overall it just feels better now
    The 'file log' menu now shows a 'reverse' command, which reverses all the imports in the log. if you want to import from oldest to newest with a typical booru, just start your downloader with file imports paused (check the cog icon), and then allow the gallery search to fully populate the list as normaly. once done, hit this new reverse and then unpause the files, and you should be good
    Any image files or thumbnails that are completely transparent and have a non-completely-black image now have their alpha channel stripped, just like files that are completely opaque. I believe the instances where this is a mistake outweigh the instances where it is legit, but let me know how we get on--maybe there are some weird mid-gif thumbs or something where this misfires. in the same thing, I reverted the 'psd thumbnails now have no transparency' change from last week. the issue where ffmpeg was sometimes being confused about psd layer masks from earlier should be fixed while letting legit transparency work correctly. the ultimate fix here will be to roll imagemagick into the program, which I am now planning and will start 'running from source' experiments with soon
    The three 'additional fixed time...' settings in options->downloading now have a max value of 3600, for extreme situation testing

    Boring code cleanup:

    Updated my serialisabledict/list objects again--they can now handle bytes objects in any position. I will slowly migrate my existing hardcoded bytes serialisation and the old serialisablebytesdict to these freshly flexible classes
    For clarity, across the code, renamed 'duplicate action options' to 'duplicate content merge options'
    Refactored duplicate content merge options initialisation, clearing the stuffed init and totuple to nicer get/set
    Broke apart how NoteImportOptions does its main note filtering for easier low-level access
    Cleaned a ton of note import options code up. the logic here was not great, now it is a bit tidier
    Undid whatever nonsense I was doing with taglist ctrl-drag-selection and cleaned up the main click and drag event handling along with its index calculation and 'what was clicked last time' record
    Fixed numerous weird logical/position index issues with the taglist and clicking/dragging

Whats new:>>

I updated something in v510 that spilled over to the network. As the server updates, either new clients get upset or old ones do. This patch restores old behaviour, allowing both old and new clients to talk to the server.

Changelog


    Thumbnail UI scaling:

    Thumbnails can finally look good at high UI scales! a new setting in options->thumbnails, 'Thumbnail UI scale supersampling %', lets you tell hydrus to generate thumbnails at a particular UI scale. match it to your monitor, and your thumbnails should regenerate to look crisp
    some users have complicated multi-monitor setups, or they change their UI scale regularly, so I'm not auto-setting this yet. let me know how it goes
    sadly <100% for super-crunchy-mode doesn't work

    Unnamespaced search tags:

    I am not really happy with this solution, since it doesn't neatly restore the old behaviour, but it does make things easier in the new system and I've fixed a related bug
    a new option in services->manage tag display and search, 'Unnamespaced input gives (any namespace) wildcard results', now lets you quickly search *:sam* by typing sam
    fixed an issue where an autocomplete input with a total wildcard namespace, like *:sam was not matching to unnamespaced tags when preparing the list of tag results
    wildcards with * namespace now have a special (any namespace) suffix, and they show with unnamespaced namespace colour

    Misc:

    fixed the client-server communication problem related to last week's SerialisableDictionary update. I messed up and forgot this object is used in network comms, which meant >=v510 clients couldn't talk to a <=509 server and vice versa version swaps. now the server always kicks out an old SerialisableDictionary serialisation. I plan to remove the patch in 26 weeks, giving us more buffer time for users to update naturally
    The recent option to turn off mouse-scroll-changes-menu-button-value is improved--now the wheel event is correctly passed up to the parent panel, so you'll scroll right through one of these buttons, not halt on it. the file sort control now also obeys this option
    If you try to zoom a media in so that its virtual size would be >32,000px on a side, the canvas now zooms to 32k exactly. this is the max allowed zoom for technical reasons atm (I'll fix it in a future rewrite). this also fixes the 'zoom max' command, which previously would make no action if the max zoom created a virtual canvas bigger than this. also, 'zoom max' is now shown on the media viewer right-click menu
    The 'max zoom' dimension for mpv windows and my native animation window is now 8k. seems like there are smaller technical limits for mpv, and my animation window isn't tiled, so this is to be extra safe for now
    Fixed a bug where it was possible to send the 'undelete file' signal to a file that was physically deleted (and therefore viewed in a special 'deleted files' domain). the file would obediently return to its original local file service and then throw 'missing file' warnings when the thumb tried to show. now these files are discarded from undelete consideration
    If you are looking at physically deleted files, the thumbnail view now provides a 'clear deletion record' menu action! this is the same command as the button in services->review services->all local files, but just on the selection
    Fixed several taglists across the program that were displaying tags in the wrong display context and/or not sorting correctly. this mostly went wrong by setting sorted storage taglists (which normally show sibling/parent flare) as unsorted display taglists
    File lookup script tag suggestions (as fetched from some external source) are now set to be sorted

    File import options pre-import checking:

    This stuff is advanced users only. normal users can rest assured that the way the client skips downloads for 'already in db/previously deleted' files now has fewer false negatives and false positives
    The awkwardly named advanced 'do not check url/hash to see if file already in db/previously deleted' checkboxes in file import options have been overhauled. now they are phrased in the positive ("check x to determine aid/pd?") and offer 'do not check', 'check', and the new 'check - and matches are dispositive'. the tooltip has been updated to talk about what they do. 'dispositive' basically means 'if this one hits, trust it over the other', and by default the 'hash' check remains dispositive over the URLs (this was previously hardcoded, now you can choose urls to rule in some cases).
    There is also a new checkbox to optionally disable a component of the url checking that looks at neighbouring urls on the same file to determine url-mapping trustworthiness. this will solve or help explore some weird multi-url-mapping situations
    Also, novel SHA256 hashes no longer count as 'matches', just like a novel MD5 hash would not. this helps keep useful dispositive behaviour for known hashes but also automatically defers to urls when a site is being CDN-optimised and transfer hashes are different to api-reported ones. this fixes some watchers that have been using excess bandwidth on repeated downloads
    Fixed several problems with the url-lookup logic, particularly with the method that checks for 'file-neighbour' urls (simply, when a file-url match should be distrusted because that file has multiple urls of the same url class). it was also too aggressive on file/unknown url classes, which can legitimately have tokenised neighbours, and getting confused by http/https dupes
    The neighbour test now remembers untrustworthy domains across different url checks for a file, which helps some subsequent direct-file-url checks where neighbours aren't a marker of file-url mapping reliability
    The overall logic behind the hash and url lookup is cleaned up significantly
    If you are an advanced user who has been working with me on this stuff, let me know how it goes. we erected this rats' nest through years of patches, and now I have cleaned it out. I'm confident it works better overall, but I may have missed one of your complicated situations. at the least, these new options should help us figure out quicker fixes in future

    Boring code cleanup:

    Removed some old 'subject_identifier' arg parsing from various account-modification calls in the server code. as previously planned, for simplicity and security, the only identifier for these actions is now 'subject_account_key', and subject_identifier is only used for account lookups
    Improved the error handling around serialised object loading. the messages explain what happened and state object type and the versions involved
    Cleaned up some tag sort code
    Cleaned up how advanced file delete content updates work
    Fixed yet another duplicate potentials count unit test that was sometimes failing due to complex count perspective

downloaders

    twitter took down the API we were using, breaking all our nice twitter downloaders! argh!
    a user has figured out a basic new downloader that grabs the tweets amongst the first twenty tweets-and-retweets of an account. yes, only the first twenty max, and usually fewer. because this is a big change, the client will ask about it when you update. if you have some complicated situation where you are working on the old default twitter downloaders and don't want them deleted, you can select 'no' on the dialog it throws up, but everyone else wants to say 'yes'. then check your twitter subs: make sure they moved to the new downloader, and you probably want to make them check more frequently too.
    given the rate of changes at twitter, I think we can expect more changes and blocks in future. I don't know whether nitter will be viable alternative, so if the artists you like end up on a nice simple booru anywhere , I strongly recommend just moving there. twitter appears to be explicitly moving to non-third-party-friendly
    thanks to a user's work, the 'danbooru - get webm ugoira' parser is fixed!
    thanks to a user's work, the deviant art parser is updated to get the highest res image in more situations!
    thanks to a user's work, the pixiv downloader now gets the artist note, in japanese (and translated, if there is one), and a 'medium:ai generated' tag!

sidecars

    I wrote some sidecar help here! https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/advanced_sidecars.html
    when the client parses files for import, the 'does this look like a sidecar?' test now also checks that the base component of the base filename (e.g. 'Image123' from 'Image123.jpg.txt') actually appears in the list of non-txt/json/xml ext files. a random yo.txt file out of nowhere will now be inspected in case it is secretly a jpeg again, for good or ill
    when you drop some files on the client, the number of files skipped because they looked like sidecars is now stated in the status label
    fixed a typo bug that meant tags imported from sidecars were not being properly cleaned, despite preview appearance otherwise, for instance ':)', which in hydrus needs to be secretly stored as '::)' was being imported as ')'
    as a special case, tags that in hydrus are secretly '::)' will be converted to ':)' on export to sidecar too, the inverse of the above problem. there may be some other tag cleaning quirks to undo here, so let me know what you run into

related tags overhaul

    the 'related tags' suggestion system, turned on under options->tag suggestions , has several changes, including some prototype tech I'd love feedback on
    first off, there are two new search buttons, 'new 1' and 'new 2' ('2' is available on repositories only).. these use an upgraded statistical search and scoring system that a user worked on and sent in. I have butchered his specific namespace searching system to something more general/flexible and easy for me to maintain, but it works better and more comprehensibly than my old method! give it a go and let me know how each button does--the first one will be fast but less useful on the PTR, the second will be slower but generally give richer results (although it cannot do tags with too-high count)
    the new search routine works on multiple files, so 'related tags' now shows on tag dialogs launched from a selection of thumbnails!
    also, all the related search buttons now search any selection of tags you make!!! so if you can't remember that character's name, just click on the series or another character they are often with and hit the search, and you should get a whole bunch appear
    I am going to keep working on this in the future. the new buttons will become the only buttons, I'll try and mitigate the prototype search limitations, add some cancel tech, move to a time-based search length like the current buttons, and I'll add more settings, including for filtering so we aren't looking up related tags for 'page:x' and so on. I'm interested in knowing how you get on with IRL data. are there too many recommendations (is the tolerance too high?)? is the sorting good (is the stuff at the top relevant or often just noise?)?

misc

    all users can now copy their service keys (which are a technical non-changing hex identifier for your client's services) from the review services window--advanced mode is no longer needed. this may be useful as the client api transitions to service keys
    when a job in the downloader search log generates new jobs (e.g. fetches the next page), the new job(s) are now inserted after the parent. previously, they were appended to the end of the list. this changes how ngugs operate, converting their searches from interleaved to sequential!
    restarting search log jobs now also places the new job after the restarted job
    when you create a new export folder, if you have default metadata export sidecar settings from a previous manual file export, the program now asks if you want those for the new export folder or an empty list. previously, it just assigned the saved default, which could be jarring if it was saved from ages ago
    added a migration guide to the running from source help. also brushed up some language and fixed a bunch of borked title weights in that document
    the max initial and periodic file limits in subscriptions is now 50k when in advanced mode. I can't promise that would be nice though!
    the file history chart no longer says that inbox and delete time tracking are new

misc fixes

    fixed a cursor type detection test that was stopping the cursor from hiding immediately when you do a media viewer drag in Qt6
    fixed an issue where 'clear deletion record' calls were not deleting from the newer 'all my files' domain. the erroneous extra records will be searched for and scrubbed on update
    fixed the issue where if you had the new 'unnamespaced input gives (any namespace) wildcard results' search option on, you couldn't add any novel tags in WRITE autocomplete contexts like 'manage tags'!!! it could only offer the automatically converted wildcard tags as suggested input, which of course aren't appropriate for a WRITE context. the way I ultimately fixed this was horrible; the whole thing needs more work to deal with clever logic like this better, so let me know if you get any more trouble here
    I think I fixed an infinite hang when trying to add certain siblings in manage tag siblings. I believe this was occuring when the dialog was testing if the new pair would create a loop when the sibling structure already contains a loop. now it throws up a message and breaks the test
    fixed an issue where certain system:filetype predicates would spawn apparent duplicates of themselves instead of removing on double-click. images+audio+video+swf+pdf was one example. it was a 'all the image types' vs 'list of (all the) image types' conversion/comparison/sorting issue

client api

    this is later than I expected, but as was planned last year, I am clearing up several obsolete parameters and data structures this week. mostly it is bad service name-identification that seemed simple or flexible to support but just added maintenance debt, induced bad implementation practises, and hindered future expansions. if you have a custom api script, please read on--and if you have not yet moved to the alternatives, do so before updating!
    all ...service_name... parameters are officially obsolete! they will still work via some legacy hacks, so old scripts shouldn't break, but they are no longer documented. please move to the ...service_key... alternates as soon as reasonably possible (check out /get_services if you need to learn about service keys)
    /add_tags/get_tag_services is removed! use /get_services instead!
    hide_service_names_tags, previously made default true, is removed and its data structures service_names_to_statuses_to_... are also gone! move to the new tags structure.
    hide_service_keys_tags is now default true. it will be removed in 4 weeks or so. same deal as with service_names_to_statuses_to_...--move to tags
    system_inbox and system_archive are removed from /get_files/search_files! just use 'system:inbox/archive' in the tags list
    the 'set_file_relationships' command from last week has been reworked to have a nicer Object parameter with a new name. please check the updated help! normally I wouldn't change something so quick, but we are still in early prototype, so I'm ok shifting it (and the old method still works lmao, but I'll clear that code out in a few weeks, so please move over--the Object will be much nicer to expand in future, which I forgot about in v513)
    many Client API commands now support modern file domain objects, meaning you can search a UNION of file services and 'deleted-from' file services. affected commands are
        /add_files/delete_files
        /add_files/undelete_files
        /add_tags/search_tags
        /get_files/search_files
        /manage_file_relationships/get_everything
    a new /get_service call now lets you ask about an individual service by service name or service key, basically a parameterised /get_services
    the /manage_pages/get_pages and /manage_pages/get_page_info calls now give the page_state, a new enum that says if the page is ready, initialised, searching, or search-cancelled
    to reduce duplicate argument spam, the client api help now specifies the complicated 'these files' and now 't...

Changelog


    Related tags:

    I worked on last week's related tags algorithm test, bringing it up to usable standard. the old buttons now use the new algorithm exclusively. all users now get 'related tags' showing in manage tags by default (if you don't like it, you can turn it off under options->tag suggestions)
    The new algorithm has new cancel tech and does a 'work for 600ms' kind of deal, like the old system, and the last-minute blocks from last week are gone--it will search as much as it has time for, including partial results. it also won't lag you out for thirty seconds (unless you tell it to in the options). it searches tags with low count first, so don't worry if it doesn't get to everything--'1girl' usually doesn't have a huge amount extra to offer once everything else has run
    It also uses 'hydev actually thought about this' statistical sampling tech to work massively faster on larger-count tags at the cost of some variance in rank and the odd false positive (considered sufficiently related when it actually shouldn't meet the threshold) nearer the bottom end of the tags result list
    Rather than 'new 1' and 'new 2', there is now an on/off button for searching your local files or all known files on tag repositories. 'all known files' = great results, but very slow, which the tooltip explains
    There's also a new status label that will tell you when it is searching and how well the search went (e.g. '12/51 tags searched fully in 459ms')
    I also added the 'quick' search button back in, since we can now repeat searches for just selections of tags
    I fixed a couple typos in the algorthim that were messing some results
    In the manage tags dialog, if you have the suggested tag panels 'side-to-side', they now go in named boxes
    In the manage tags dialog, if you have suggested tag panels in a notebook, 'related tags' will only refresh its search on a media change event (including dialog initialisation) when it is the selected page. it won't lag you from the background!
    Options->tag suggestions now lets you pick which notebook'd tag suggestions page you want to show by default. this defaults to 'related'
    I have more plans here. these related tags results are very cachable, so that's an obvious next step to speed up results, and when I have done some other long-term tag improvements elsewhere in the program, I'll be able to quickly filter out unhelpful sibling and parent suggestions. more immediately, I think we'll want some options for namespace weighting (e.g. 'series:' tags' suggestions could have higher rank than 'smile'), so we can tune things a bit

    Misc:

    The 'open externally' canvas widget, which shows any available thumbnail of the flash or psd or whatever, now sizes itself correctly and draws the thumbnail nicely if you set the new thumbnail supersampling option to >100%. if your thumbnail is the wrong size (and probably in a queue to be regenerated soon), I think it'll still make the window too big/small, but it'll draw the thumbnail to fit
    If a tag content update comes in with an invalid tag (such as could happen with sidecars recently), the client now heals better. the bad tag is corrected live in more places, and this should be propagated to the UI. if you got a warning about 'you have invalid tags in view' recently but running the routine found no problems, please reboot, and I think you'll be fixed. I'm pretty sure the database wasn't being damaged at all here (it has cleaning safeguards, so it shouldn't be possible to actually save bad tags)--it was just a thing to do with the UI not being told of the cleaned tag, and it shouldn't happen again. thank you for the reports! (issue #1324)
    Export folders and the file maintenance dialog no longer apply the implicit system:limit (defaults to max 10k files) to their searches!
    Old OR predicates that you load with saved searches and similar should now always have alphebetised components, and if you double-click them to remove them, they will now clear correctly (previously, they were doing something similar to the recent filetype problem, where instead of recognising themselves and deleting, they would instead duplicate a normalised (sorted) copy of themselves)
    Thanks to a user, updated the recently note-and-ai-updated pixiv parser again to grab the canonical pixiv URL and translated tags, if present
    Thanks to a user, updated the sankaku parser to grab some more tags
    The file location context and tag context buttons under tag autocompletes now put menu separators between each type of file/tag service in their menus. for basic users, this'll be a separator for every row, but for advanced users with multiple local domains, it will help categorise the list a bit

Changelog


    Misc:

    The 'manage sidecar routers' control, which is on manage import folders, manage export folders, path-tagging-before-manual-import, and manual export files, now has import/export/duplicate buttons. you can save and transfer your work now! if you try to import 'export to sidecar' routers to an 'import from sidecar' context or vice versa, it should give you a nicely worded error
    Fixed the error that was raising when you turn related tags off with the suggestions set to side-by-side layout. very sorry for the trouble!
    Apngs that are set to 'loop x times' (usually once) now only loop that many times, on both mpv and my native renderer! like gifs, the 'always loop animations' setting under options->media overrides it!
    Fixed an issue with my native renderer not updating on scanbar scrubs very well. should be back to nice smooth instant draw as you scrub
    Thanks to a user, folded in another deviant art parser update to the defaults
    Updated the setuptools version in the requirements.txt due to a security note--I don't think the problem (which was about some vulnerable regex when fetching malicious package info) applies to us, but running from source users might like to run setup_venv again this week anyway

    Related tags:

    A new 'concurrence threshold' setting under options->tag suggestions allows you to set how 'strict' the related tags search is. a higher percentage causes fewer but more relevant results. I'm increasing the default this week from 4% to 6%
    Two new 'namespace to weight' settings under options->tag suggestions now manage how much weight the 'search' and 'suggestion' sides of related tags have. you can say 'rank the suggestions from character tags highly' or 'rank unnamespaced suggestions lower', and 'do not search x tags' and 'do not suggest y tags'. I have prepped it with some 'creator/character/series namespaces are better than unnamespaced, and title/filename/page/chapter/volume are useless' defaults, but feel free to play around with it
    The related tags algorithm takes a larger sample now, resulting in a little less ranking-variability

    Client api:

    Changed and fixed an issue in the client api's new get_file_relationships call. previously, I said 'king' would be null if it was not on the given file domain, but this was not working correctly--it was giving pseudorandom 'fallback' kings. now it always gives the king, no matter what! a new param, king_is_on_file_domain says whether the king is on the given domain. king_is_local says whether the king is available on disk
    Added some discussion and a list of the 8 possible 'better than' and 'same quality' logical combinations to the set_file_relationships help so you can see how group merge involving non-kings works
    Client api is now version 42

Changelog

[New]

    iTunes online search.

[Changed]

    The executables of Data Crow are now signed by my own official certificate. This means no more issues with virus scanners and no more unknown publisher messages for Windows users. I had to update the datacrow-install module to include the signing. This will only work on my build machines as the certificate is private to myself. There is no code hidden from you, it’s still true to form for an open source project. All other developers won’t be able to do is to generate the official Data Crow executables.
    The web modules is now configured for HTTPS (only). A default self signed certificate has been added. This can be used for internal / local network use. If the application needs to be running in a web environment it is recommended to add a valid certificate which can be configured in ssl/datacrow-ssl.properties. Always go to the HTTPS version in the browser when navigating to the web module from now on.
    Changed all Data Crow product icons.
    The main application icon now consists of multiple sizes to allow support for multiple displaying purposes.
    Discogs maximum search results has been increased (online services pack version 1.4).
    Reintroduced the donation question.
    Updated the completely outdated About dialog contents.
    Added an executable for the server version.

[Fixed]

    Web module did not show the login page correctly.
    Web module you needed to login twice in order to get into the application (a 4.2.2 issue)
    Web module: download button was too large.
    Donate plugin was outdated and donate dialog pointed to the old site.
    Some fields were not translatable on the loan panel (item form > loan administration)
    Added an additional check when looking for the current active module to prevent incorrect startup errors.
    The font was incorrect on opening the help section.
    There was an issue with loading items in case the ordering was set on a non-text field (this issue was introduced in version 4.5).

    Misc:

    Thanks to a user, export folders finally support exporting to symlinks!
    If a symlink export-create fails on Windows, the error now tells you to try again in 'run as Admin' mode--seems like this is needed in Win 10+ unless you mess with Group Policy Editor
    'related tags' should no longer suggest sibling ideals or parents of existing tags! I think!
    When a thumbnail fails to load, the error popup now has a button to open the specific problem-causing file in a new page
    Generation of video thumbnails is faster, should fail less in odd cases, and when it completely fails, it now gives the hydrus icon as a final fallback
    Generation of image thumbnails now falls back to the hydrus icon as a final fallback
    I think I fixed a focus logic problem where the autocomplete dropdowns on the duplicate filter page would hide if you clicked a results/favourites tab or greyspace
    Fixed an error when seeking an mpv video while the video was loading or unloading
    The max 'nullification period' (after which uploads to a hydrus repository are anonymised) is raised from 1 year to 5 (needs server and client update to work)

    Transparency and duplicate filter:

    Two new options, under media and duplicates, now control if you would like transpararency-having images to have a checkerboard background rather than the normal media canvas background! you can have it on all the time or just under the duplicate filter. it uses the same style of grid as MPV
    I have a plan for proper native (non-MPV) transparency for gifs and apng, but I think I'll wait for an imagemagick plugin I am planning first
    If you have a white/black media viewer background and prefer not to use the checkerboard, the duplicate filter can now adjust the background colour, either lighter or darker, for both A and B of the pair. altering A as well exposes truly transparent-having images vs ones with opaque white/black fill, which will otherwise blend into a purely white/black background colour. these options are available in the options dialog and the duplicate filter right-hand hover window cog button
    The native image window, embed button, and animation window (with PIL gif rendering) now all adjust their background colour to any odd changes like the duplicate filter's A/B lighten/darken adjustment

    Boring cleanup:

    Cleaned up how popup file buttons are set and cleared
    Cleaned up how popup main and secondary texts are set and cleared

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

    Autocomplete improvements:

    Tl;dr: I went through the whole tag autocomplete search pipeline, cleaned out the cruft, and made the pre-fetch results more sensible. searching for tags on thumbnails isn't horrible any more!
    When you type a tag search, either in search or edit autocomplete contexts, and it needs to spend some time reading from the database, the search now always does the 'exact match' search first on what you typed. if you type in 'cat', it will show 'cat' and 'species:cat' and 'character:cat' and anything else that matches 'cat' exactly, with counts, and easy to select, while you are waiting for the full autocomplete results to come back
    In edit contexts, this exact-matching pre-fetch results here now include sibling suggestions, even if the results have no count
    In edit contexts, the full results should more reliably include sibling suggestions, including those with no count. in some situations ('all known tags'), there may be too many siblings, so let me know!
    The main predicate sorting method now sorts by string secondarily, stabilising the sort between same-count preds
    When the results list transitions from pre-fetch results to full results, your current selection is now preserved!!! selecting and then hitting enter right when the full results come in should be safe now!
    When you type on a set of full results and it quickly filters down on the results cache to a smaller result, it now preserves selection. I'm not sure how totally useful this will be, but I did it anyway. hitting backspace and filtering 'up' will reset selection
    When you search for tags on a page of thumbnails, you should now get some early results super fast! these results are lacking sibling data and will be replaced with the better answer soon after, but if you want something simple, they'll work! no more waiting ages for anything on thumbnail tag searches!
    Fixed an issue where the edit autocomplete was not caching results properly when you had the 'unnamespaced input gives (any namespace) wildcard results' option on
    The different loading states of autocomplete all now have clear 'loading...' labels, and each label is a little different based on what it is doing, like 'loading sibling data...'
    I generally cleared out jank. as the results move from one type to another, or as they filter down as you type, they should flicker less
    Added a new gui debug mode to force a three second delay on all autocomplete database jobs, to help simulate slow searches and play with the above
    NOTE: autocomplete has a heap of weird options under tags->manage tag display and search. I'm really happy with the above changes, but I messed around with the result injection rules, so I may have broken one of the combinations of wildcard rules here. let me know how you get on and I'll fix anything that I busted.

    Pympler:

    Hydrus now optionally uses 'pympler', a python memory profiling library. for now, it replaces my old python gc (garbage collection) summarising commands under help->debug->memory actions, and gives much nicer formatting and now various estimates of actual memory use. this is a first version that mostly just replicates old behaviour, but I added a 'spam a more accurate total mem size of all the Qt widgets' in there too. I will keep developing this in future. we should be able to track some memory leaks better in future
    Pympler is now in all the requirements.txts, so if you run from source and want to play with it, please reinstall your venv and you'll be sorted. help->about says whether you have it or not

    Misc:

    The system:time predicates now allow you to specify the hh:mm time on the calendar control. if needed, you can now easily search for files viewed between 10pm-11:30pm yesterday. all existing 'date' system predicates will update to midnight. if you are a time-search nerd, note this changes the precision of existing time predicates--previously they searched before/after the given date, but now they search including the given date, pivoting around the minute (default: 0:00am) rather than the integer calendar day! 'same day as' remains the same, though--midnight to midnight of the given calendar day
    If hydrus has previously initial-booted without mpv available and so set the media view options for video/animations/audio to 'show with native viewer', and you then boot with mpv available, hydrus now sets your view options to use mpv and gives a popup saying so. trying to get mpv to work should be a bit easier to test now, since it'll popup and fix itself as soon as you get it working, and people who never realised it was missing and fix it accidentally will now get sorted without having to do anything extra
    Made some small speed and memory optimisations to content processing for busy clients with large sessions, particularly those with large collect-by'd pages
    Also boosted the speed of the content update pipeline as it consults which files are affected by which update object
    The migrate tags dialog now lets you filter the tag source by pending only on tag repositories
    Cleaned up some calendar/time code
    Updated the Client API help on how Hydrus-Client-API-Access-Key works in GET vs POST arguments
    Patched the legacy use of 'service_names_to_tags' in /add_urls/add_url in the client api. this parameter is more obsolete than the other legacy names (it got renamed a while ago to 'service_names_to_additional_tags'), but I'm supporting it again, just for a bit, for Hydrus Companion users stuck on an older version. sorry for the trouble here, this missed my legacy checks!

Titel: Data Crow 4.7.0
Beitrag von: SiLæncer am 02 März, 2023, 20:50
Changelog

    New:

    Archive.org software online book, software and movie search.Open Library (openlibrary.org) online book search. The online search fetches edition information and work information.
    Added a new Look and Feel: FlatLaf Light. This is a more modern Look and Feel which is still actively developed (https://www.formdev.com/flatlaf/). This will be the default Look and Feel for Data Crow from now on (for new installations). Find it in Settings Look and Feel Note that on upgrading the system will automatically switch to this skin.

    Changed:

    Now allowing for references to be made to main modules without removing the referenced module from the module menu.
    Now allowing users to alter a module to create a reference to the module itself; allowing for, for example, a field called related software item on a software item.
    Hierarchy view for containers will now show all items per container + the items of children of the selected container.
    Small performance increase for the MobyGames.com search
    Added two new fields to the Book module: translated from & original title
    Small changes to the overall layout; update the module selection bar, removed line around the main menu, increased spacing for many of the components.
    Better spacing of long texts in the quick view.
    Icon size can now be changed: Settings Look and Feel Icon Size. Note that currently all icons as part of the Data Crow data are stored at a size of 16x16. If you change an icon it will be stored at 128*128 (if the original size allows for it) so it can adjust to any selected icon size. The maximum is currently 40*40. All UI elements have been optimized to allow displaying the larger icons.
    Selecting clear for the online search will now only clear the results, not the search terms.
    Look and Feel: removed CDE/Motif and Windows Classic - outdated.

    Fixed:

    Errors for Data Crow client in case the server was not responding when logging on.
    Filtering on references didn't work (sometimes).
    Module disappears completely when a reference field is added referencing itself (reference field on software pointing to software).
    The log window (CTRL+L) did not show latest entries.
    The server edition sometimes gave errors on saving new items.
    Ratings for Mobygames.com online search were incorrect.
    Errors when retrieving back covers when performing an online searching using The Movie Database.
    Fixed an issue with the module selection buttons where for some skins the selection color overflowed.
    Luna was shown twice as a Look and Feel in the drop-down.
    Aligned the quick view bottom with the other screen elements.
    Incorrect text margins in various text and tag fields - all have been optimized to work best with the newly introduced Look and Feel

Changelog


    Inc/dec ratings service:

    I have written a new number 'rating' service type, called 'inc/dec'. it is simply a no-upper-limit positive integer--you left-click to increment, right to decrement. middle-click to edit directly
    It appears and works like other ratings in the top-right media viewer hover and the manage ratings dialog. there's a section under system:ratings too. the main logical difference is every file is always rated in this system--the default for all files is 0--so there's no searching for 'unrated'
    The duplicate merge options support this new inc/dec rating by adding/summing in one or both directions. its action labels in the dialog are a little different because of this

    Misc:

    The manage tag siblings dialog now shows all members of a chain when it filters the current in-view pairs according to the current pertinent tags. previously, it just showed the pairs that included your entered tags; now it chases everything
    The same is also now broadly true of manage tag parents, but there's a checkbox that sets how crazy it goes. by default it won't pursue 'cousins', since that can make a really overwhelming list (imagine seeing every character nintendo ever created, including every pokemon, when you just wanted to add a samus costume variant). more work can and will be done here, also with sibling-cross referencing
    The system:ratings panel now lists the groups of rating services in alphabetical order
    Fixed an issue where the hydrus native animation renderer was drawing animations at small size in the top-left with garbled surrounds when the monitor UI scale was >100% (issue #1334)
    I think I have hacked an ugly fix for the 'this window keeps growing horizontally until it reaches the width of the screen' bug that hits some people. the sizing code is now supposed to recognise when this happens and stop it in place. if you get this problem, let me know if it is fixed or what! (issue #1331)
    If a file in the duplicate filter (or any other media viewer, if you can wangle it) has a 'show action' of 'do not show in the media viewer' or 'do not show, open externally on thumbnail activate', the media viewer now falls back to 'show open externally button'. previously, it was halting in an ugly state and no longer able to proceed (issue #1329)
    If repository processing runs into any missing/invalid file trouble, it now queues up a wider array of potential file maintenance jobs, assuming there may be a problem with the file records themselves
    If, during repository processing, an update file is missing, the error note now asks users to run database->maintenance->clear orphan file records. might be that the above fix helps here too, but this will be the sledgehammer solution on top, clearing up unusual cases where one service thinks the files exist when actually they don't
    Fixed the recent 'when ffmpeg can't generate a video thumb, use hydrus thumb' routine to cover more situations
    Thanks to a user, fixed a bunch of unit tests for python 3.11

    Misc cleanup:

    Updated my async updater object to handle some pre-call UI-side argument-construction and cleaned up some related garbage shared memory hacks I had before
    In a step towards less laggy sibling/parents dialogs, I have moved the 'manage tag siblings' dialog's list-filtering routine to a thread. I'll do parents too, sometime, and plan to eventually move to very fast on-demand existing-pair fetching based on the above lookup rule improvements rather than the super laggy 'load everything on dialog boot' current system. a next big step would obviously be visual graph representation of sibling and parent chains
    Cleaned some ratings code and fixed some weird little bugs like numerical rating tooltips not updating properly after a click
    Added some unit tests for inc/dec ratings

    Server admin:

    (the server and client both need to be updated to get this)
    I updated and reinstated the old 'superban' function for janitors! it is now just 'delete all account content' on the account modification dialog, separate from the banning process. note that since the server only remembers account ownership of content through the anonymisation period, it cannot auto-remove content older than that date!
    The account info you see in the modify account dialog now only shows file count/bytes for file repositories and tag counts for tag repositories. to improve readability, it also shows every key/value pair on a separate line, sorted by keys
    That account info now shows, for tag repositories, number of current, pending, and petitioned sibling and parent rows, and it shows number of petitioned mapping rows. all this stuff obviously goes to 0 if you hit 'delete all account content'--let me know if any of it doesn't!
    The modify accounts dialog no longer shows the 'null' account type as a choice to set things to. duh! its yes/no also now confirms the account type you are settting
    All the commands in the modify accounts dialog now have nicer yes/no dialogs that say the number of accounts being affected and talk more about what is happening
    Fixed up some logical jank in the dialog. adding time to expires no longer tells you about 0 accounts having no expiry, and if circumstances mean 0 accounts are selected/valid for an operation, it no longer says 'want to set expiry for 0 accounts?' etc...
    When modifying multiple accounts, the current account focus/selection is now preserved through list refreshes after jobs go through

Changelog


    Autocomplete:

    In autocomplete dropdowns, the advanced 'all known files' file domain now generally appears as 'all known files with tags'. the way file+tag search works here has been obscure and confusing for a long time; now the label specifically says what's going on
    To complement 'all known files with tags', all users now see a new 'all files ever imported/deleted', which is what most people actually want when they try 'all known files'. this quick-select entry for 'currently in or deleted from all my files' will run super quick in almost all cases and allows 'all known tags'!
    The new 'preserve selection between prefetch and full results' behaviour in tag autocomplete no longer applies if you have 'select the first item with count' turned on. these things just don't play well together
    That 'select the first item with count' option is now available in the manage tags dialog's cog icon too
    The 'edit' autocomplete tag search should be better about shuffling the top results. it now tries to put 'ideal of what you entered' at the very top (if that differs from what you typed), then what you actually typed (with or without count), and no longer shuffles other siblings to the top--while they are still included in the results, they weren't so helpful being spammed to the top every time!
    Any search predicate that has a wildcard asterisk in its namespace is now coloured by default as the 'namespaced tags' fallback colour. this includes the somewhat new (any namespace) search tags. behind the scenes, the colour I assign is for a namespace of just '*', so you can set your own colour if you like
    The different 'edit tags' autocomplete panels that have paste buttons--in manage siblings, manage parents, filename tagging, tag import options, and favourite tag management--are now all 'add only'. if any of the tags you are pasting already exist in the list, they now won't be removed

    Misc:

    The '(displays as xxx)' sibling suffix is shortened to a simpler unicode arrow, " ? ". if you don't like it, you can edit it under options->tag presentation!
    I also went full meme and made the sibling connecting block's background colour a gradient on Qt6 (and lol the unselected text is a gradient too, but you need to alter it to something longer to really see). if you don't like it, you can turn it off in the same place! I also tweaked some of the padding sizes here so the different text blocks line up a little nicer
    Thanks to a user's continued good work, I am rolling in another update to the Deviant Art file downloader that can grab the 'original quality' file from the logged-in-only download button that some artists turn on. furthermore, there are five new 'File URL' classes for the different qualities the file urls represent, which will propagate to all of your existing DA files, be searchable with system:known url, and hence allow you to find the medium/original/whatever quality versions that you have. now, not every 'medium quality' post on the site has the 'original' download button, but if you are an advanced user with a long DA download history, then with a bit of magic wand waving with your file import options, you can set up an url downloader for a one-time rescan that'll check and redownload your favourite mediums' URLs, or the mediums you know will have 'original quality', for that better version--try it in a small batch first, and let me know what you discover!
    Fixed note content update pipeline so it can handle various instances of multiple notes with the same name coming in at once. previously it would pseudorandomly pick one and discard the others, now it does all the normal '(1)' renaming rules (and even note text extension merging, and hopefully in a good reliable order) as it goes through them
    If you are a madlad, you can now boost the 'prefetch previous/next' options under 'speed and memory' up to 50 either way. a new label complains if you set them too high given your current image cache size
    The file maintenance system now catches serious IOErrors, which usually suggest big deal hard drive problems, give the user a special popup message, and stops all future file maintenance work that boot
    The file maintenance system is better at stopping work for program shutdown while in the midst of a larger batch job
    Fixed the second 'current and pending' label on 'migrate tags'--the new action was 'pending only' as intended, the bad label was just a stupid copy/paste typo
    Thanks to a detailed user report, fixed multiple broken internal #anchor links in the help

    Repository:

    (both server and client need to be updated to get this)
    Last week's 'delete all content' command failed IRL. it locked up the PTR for six hours and then appeared to fail (rollback) on a seemingly normal account. I am not sure what the inefficiency was here, but this job obviously has to be re-thought for real world use, so this week I am altering the command to break the job up into smaller pieces and stop safely after twenty seconds of work. the janitor client will receive a message on whether everything was deleted or not
    This is not a total solution or a nice solution, but it should be a stopgap that still allows deletion of small accounts' content while not breaking for big accounts. the ultimate answer here is going to look like proper account content-count caching (rather than the '5000 mappings' limit), and an asynchronous 'purge' maintenance system that runs in the background that janitor clients can check up on and even cancel

Changelog


    Some tag presentation:

    Building on last week's custom sibling connector, if you don't like the fade you can now override the 'namespace' colour of the sibling connector if you like
    You can also set the ' OR ' connector text
    And you can set the OR connector's 'namespace' colour. it was 'system' before
    Also turned off the new namespace colour fading for OR predicates, where it was unintentionally kicking in and looking horrible lol
    Misc:added a checkbox to 'file viewing statistcs' to turn off tracking for the archive/delete filter, if you don't like that
    File viewing statistics now maxes out at five times a duration-having media's duration, if that is more than your max view time
    The simple version of the file delete dialog will now never overwrite a file deletion reason if all of the to-be-deleted files already have deletion reasons (e.g. when physically deleting trash)
    The advanced version of the dialog now always selects 'keep existing reason' or 'do not alter existing reasons' when they exist, regardless of your 'remember previous reason' action. also, the 'remember previous reason' saved reason no longer updates if 'keep existing reason' or 'do not alter existing reasons' is set--it will stick on whatever it was before
    I might have fixed a height-layout bug in the petition management page
    Advanced change to unnamespaced tags and their parsing:
    The rule that allows ':p' as a tag (by secretly storing it as '::p') has been expanded--now any unnamespaced tag can include a colon as long as it starts with an explicit colon, which in hydrus rendering contexts is usually hidden. you can now type these in simply by beginning your tag with ':'--the secret character will be quickly swallowed
    For the parsing system, content parsers that get tags can now decide whether to set an explicit namespace or not. from now on, content parsers that are set to get unnamespaced tags will force all tags they get to be unnamespaced! this stops some site that has incidental colons in their 'subtags' from spamming twenty different new namespaces to hydrus. to preserve old parser behaviour, all existing content parsers that were left blank (no namespace) will be updated to not set an explicit namespace. if you are a parser maker, please consider whether you want to go with 'unnamespaced' or 'any namespace' going forward in your parsers--since most places don't use the hydrus 'namespace:subtag' format, I suspect when we want to make the decision, we'll want 'unnamespaced'
    I updated the pixiv parser to specifically ask for unnamespaced tags when parsing regular user tags, since it has some of these colon-having tags
    As a side thing, extra colons are now collapsed at the start of a tag--anything that starts with four colons will be collapsed down to two, with one displaying to humans
    Also, during parsing, if a content parser gets a tag and the subtag already starts with its namespace, it will no longer double the namespace. parse 'character:dave' with namespace set to 'character', it will no longer produce 'character:character:dave'

    Advanced file domain and file import options stuff:

    All import pages that need to consult their file domain now do so on a 'realised' version of 'default file import options', so if you are set to import to 'my imports', and you open a new page from a tag or some thumbs on that import page, the new file page will be set to 'my imports', not some weird 'my files' stub value (in clients that deleted 'my files', this would be 'initialising...' forever)
    More stages of the file import process 'realise' default file import options stubs, just in case more of these problems slip through in future (e.g. in my file import unit tests, which I just discovered were all broken)
    The 'default' file import options stub is now initialised with your first local file domain rather than 'my files', so if this thing is ever still consulted anywhere, it should serve as a better last resort
    Also fixed the file domain button getting stuck on 'initialising' if it starts with an empty file domain
    When you open the edit file import options dialog on a 'default' FIO and switch to a non-default, it now fills in all the details with the current LOUD FIO

    Boring cleanup:

    Extracted the master file search method (~1800 lines of code) from the monolithic database object and into its own module. then broke several sub-pieces like rating or note searching code out into that module and cleaned misc stuff along the way. not done by any means, but this was a big db-cleanup hump
    Reshuffled all the page management objects so they no longer keep an explicit copy of their current file domain--now they always consult their respective sub-objects, whether that is a file search or an importer or what. any time a page needs to consult its file domain, it'll always get the live and sensible version. as above, they also 'realise' default file import options stubs
    Broke the 'getting started with tags' help page into two and straddled the 'getting started with searching' page with them. the intention is to get users typing a few tags into their first import pages, just that, and then playing around with them in search, before moving on to more complicated tag subjects
    Split the 'autocomplete' section of the 'search' options into two, for read/write a/c contexts, and the default file and tag domain options have been moved there from 'files and trash' and 'tags'

Changelog

    New:

    Added a new module: Board Games
    Added online search: Board Games Atlas.
    Added merge option to other modules beside the property modules. This means you can now merge artists, developers and other (sub) module items. It allows you to select the duplicated items and select an existing target item. The process will the update all references from the duplicated items to the new target item. When that’s done, the selected duplicated items are removed from the database completely. The merge dialog has been improved a bit as well.
    Added componists module and added a componists field to the music album module.
    Added moviemeter.nl online search (Dutch movie site).
    Database language setting added. This determines how items are sorted. For most languages, the default will work. But if you find the sorting is not correct, please change the setting in Settings > Regional Settings > Database Language.

    Changed:

    The help system was relying on old library called Java Help. As the information within was hard to maintained it has been decided to move the help system onto the datacrow.org website (https://datacrow.org/docs). When you press F1 for help, this page will be opened. Pages have been mapped to the appropriate topics you are requesting help for, as was the case for the old help system.
    Updated HSQL DB to version 2.7.1. JSoup updated to 1.15.4. Gson (from Google) updated to version 2.10.1. Apache xmlgraphics Batik updated to 1.16. Apache PDFBox updated to 2.0.27. Apache Tika upgraded to 2.7.0. Log4j updated to 2.20. jAudiotagger updated to 3.0.1. ImageIO updated to 3.9.4. Jetty updated to 11.0.14. Jakarta Faces updated to 4.0.1. Jakarta Platform updated to 10.0.0. SLF4J API Module updated 2.0.6. Jakarta Servlet updated to 6.0.
    Online service pack 1.7: reimplemented online service for The Movie Database; fixed issues present in previous versions where actors and such were no longer retrieved and added additional fields to be retrieved such as: rating, countries and languages.
    Switched on key field settings in everyone’s configuration. This will allow for the uniqueness check to work; when saving an item, Data Crow will check whether the item already exists. It does this by checking the field settings; it will check the combination of values for all fields marked as “key”. If an item already exists with the exact same values for these key fields Data Crow will prevent you from saving the item. Since this was incorrectly set in the base configuration of Data Crow it will now be adjusted (just once) for everyone; every field that is currently marked as ‘required’ will also gain the ‘key’ setting (see Settings > General Field Settings).
    Discogs.com service now also sets the composer for tracks & albums.
    References filter will now filter on contains instead of starting with, same for the field filter dialogs.
    Small layout fixes for the loan administration panel.
    Added sorting capabilities to the General Field Settings dialog.
    Added look & feels; FlatLaf IntelliJ, FlatLaf Dark & FlatLaf Darcula
    File Renamer; renamed Start button to Preview.
    Find & Replace; renamed Appy button to Preview.
    Discogs.com; title contained the artist name. Changed to only contain the title.
    Discogs.com; added two additional search fields; year and artist. They are both optional and can be used to refine your queries.
    Discogs.com; added UPC search mode.
    Books module: added fields added translators & year of First Publication
    Online search OpenLibrary.org: added translators & year of First Publication
    Online search OpenLibrary.org: added optional author filter field to narrow search
    Online search: improved the search result overview; less clunky (large) components with fixed fields. Instead smaller cards are displayed and the details of a search result can be reviewed in the quick view of the online search form.

    Fixed:

    Discogs.com service now handles sub tracks correctly.
    Corrected all incorrect base settings, for new installation.
    Cleanup; corrected the record label module and field references, internal names were incorrect. The database will be automatically updated.
    Sorting of values was not correct for the tree panels and for the auto numbering tool (for special characters).
    Server: user could not be edited (error + client got stuck).
    Server: children were not saved when creating a new item.
    Server: performance was impacted due to the fact that the whole user object was serialized for each permission entry.
    Server: loan module check for editing allowed was depending on the plugin being loaded. It should only have checked to see whether the permission was given as the server does not have access to the plugins themselves.
    Sorting was not correct when including reference fields (for special characters).
    Icons showing too large (unscaled) in the reference selection field.
    Descriptive setting not correctly applied for media, person and property items.
    Fixed the layout in the toolbar, ugly line in front of Quick Search.
    Help updates; reviewed all help files and remove incorrect references and incorrect information.
    Removed references to no longer existing parameters (-clearsettings and -nosplash).
    Property maintenance overviews did not adhere to the descriptive field settings.
    Related Items; overviews did not adhere to the descriptive field settings. Now, each item is represented based on the descriptive general field settings of its module.
    Fixed a NullPointerException in the Auto Numbering tool in case order fields were selected except for the first level.
    File Importer; the specific music file import dialog was not used in the Music Album module, instead the generic import dialog was shown.
    When exporting loans to an iCalender file the description and summary of the event contained %1 instead of the item type.
    Many corrections have been made to the help system.
    Server edition was missing the language resources.
    Online search OpenLibrary.org: language drop-down was not sorted.

Changelog


    Notes in sidecars:

    The sidecars system now supports notes!
    My sidecars only support univariate rows atm (a list of strings, rather than, say, a list of pairs of strings), so I had to make a decision how to handle note names. if I reworked the pipeline to handle multivariate data, it would take weeks; if I incorporated explicit names into the sidecar object, it would have made 'get/export all my notes' awkward or impossible and not solved the storage problem; so I have compromised in this first version by choosing to import/export everything and merging the name and text into the same row. it expects/says 'name: text' for input and output. let me know what you think. I may revisit this, depending on how it goes
    I added a note to the sidecars help about this special 'name: text' rule along with a couple ideas for tricky situations

    Misc:

    Added 'system:framerate' and 'system:number of frames' to the system predicate parser!
    I am undoing two changes to tag logic from last week: you can now have as many colons at the start of a tag as you like, and the content parser no longer tries to stop double-stacked namespaces. both of these were more trouble than they were worth. in related news, '::' is now a valid tag again, displaying as ':', and you can create :blush:-style tags by typing ::blush:. I'm pretty sure these tags will autocomplete search awfully, so if you end up using something like this legit, let me know how it goes
    If you change the 'media/preview viewer uses its own volume' setting, the client now updates the UI sliders for this immediately, it doesn't need a client restart. the actual volume on the video also changes immediately
    When an mpv window is called to play media that has 'no audio', the mpv window is now explicitly muted. we'll see if this fixes an interesting issue where on one system, videos that have an audio channel with no sound, which hydrus detects as 'no audio', were causing cracks and pops and bursts of hellnoise in mpv (we suspect some sort of normalisation gain error)

    File safety with duplicate symlinked directory entries:

    The main hydrus function that merges/mirrors files and directories now checks if the source and destination are the same location but with two different representations (e.g. a mapped drive and its network location). if so, to act as a final safety backstop, the mirror skips work and the merge throws an error. previously, if you wangled two entries for the same location into 'migrate database' and started a migration, it could cause file deletions!
    I've also updated my database migration routines to recognise and handle this situation explicitly. it now skips all file operations and just updates the location record instantly. it is now safe to have the same location twice in the dialog using different names, and to migrate from one to the other. the only bizzaro thing is if you look in the directory, it of course has boths' contents. as always though, I'll say make backups regularly, and sync them before you do any big changes like a migration--then if something goes wrong, you always have an up-to-date backup to roll back to
    The 'migrate database' dialog no longer chases the real path of what you give it. if you want to give it the mapped drive Z:, it'll take and remember it
    Some related 'this is in the wrong place' recovery code handles these symlink situations better as well

    Advanced new parsing tricks:

    Thanks to a clever user doing the heavy lifting, there are two neat but advanced additions to the downloader system
    First, the parsing system has a new content parser type, 'http headers', which lets you parse http headers to be used on subsequent downloads created by the parsing downloader object (e.g. next gallery page urls, file downloads from post pages, multi-file posts that split off to single post page urls). should be possible to wangle tokenized gallery searches and file downloads and some hacky login systems
    Second, the string converter system now lets you calculate the normal hydrus hashes--md5, sha1, sha256, sha512--of any string (decoding it by utf-8), outputting hexadecimal

    Http headers on the client api:

    The client api now lets you see and edit the http headers (as under network->data->review http headers) for the global network context and specific domains. the commands are /manage_headers/get_headers and /manage_headers/set_headers
    If you have the 'Make a short-lived popup on cookie updates through the Client API' option set (under 'popups' options page), this now applies to these header changes too
    Also debuting on the side is a 'network context' object in the get_headers response, confirming the domain you set for. this is an internal object that does domain location stuff all over. it isn't important here, but as we do more network domain setting editing, I expect we'll see more of this guy
    I added some some documentation for all this, as normal, to the client api help
    The labels and help around 'manage cookies' permission are now 'manage cookies and headers'
    The client api version is now 43
    The old /manage_headers/set_user_agent still works. ideally, please move to set_headers, since it isn't that complex, but no rush. I've made a job to delete it in a year
    While I was doing this, I realised get/set_cookies is pretty bad. I hate their old 'just spam tuples' approach. I've slowly been replacing this stuff with nicer named JSON Objects as is more typical in APIs and is easier to update, so I expect I'll overhaul them at some point

    Boring cleanup:

    Gave the about window a pass. it now runs on the newer scrolling panel system using my hydrus UI objects (so e.g. the hyperlink now opens on a custom browser command, if you need it), says what platform you are on and whether you are source/build/app, and the version info lines are cleaned a little
    Fixed/cleaned some bad code all around http header management
    Wrote some unit tests for http headers in the client api
    Wrote some unit tests for notes in sidecars

Vee-Hive (aka Videophile) was created for the purpose of managing and organizing your multimedia files. Its powerful feature-set lends itself as an ideal solution for cataloguing large collections of media content. Specifically, it is aimed at collections that traverse multile storage devices and where it is otherwise inherently difficult to locate a particular file in a collection.

Changelog


    Functional] In Tile-Mode, when hovering the mouse, the user has the option to see a preview of the file as either a series of still images, or a condensed video preview
    [Functional] Vee-Hive introduces the idea of 'Assets', which are a means of storing, in a sidecar file, any images/videos that have previously been extracted for some other purpose, e.g. the (just described) mouse-hover functionality, or the creation of Storyboards.
    [Functional] 'References' may now be associated with either Tags or individual files. A Reference is essentially a link to something 'outside' of the Library. This might be a link to (say) a Word document, or a URL to a relevant website. References are regarded as a type of 'Asset'.
    [Functional] Files may be moved to new locations within the file system
    [Functional] Files may be re-named. This can be accomplished via either the File Inspector, or when in List-Mode.
    [Functional] Items on the Crumb-bar may be dragged and re-arranged via the mouse, making it possible to quickly modify search expressions.
    [Functional] Tab layouts can be 'remembered' on an individual basis (for example, one tab can be sorted, and in Tile-Mode, whilst another could be unsorted and in List-Mode).
    [Functional] When sorting, columns can (optionally) be 'banded'. For example, everything over 1080p, is banded as 'Full HD'.
    [Technical] Updated external components
    plus many small improvements and bug fixes...

Changelog


    Timestamp editing:

    You can now right-click->manage->times on any file to edit its archived, imported, deleted, previously imported (for undelete), file modified, domain modified, and last viewed times. there's a whole new dialog with new datetime buttons and everything. it only works on single files atm, so it is currently only appropriate for little fixes, and there's a couple advanced things like setting a currently missing deletion time that it can't do yet, but I expect to expand it in future (also ideally with some kind of 'cascade' option for multi-files so you can set a timestamp iteratively (e.g. +1 second per file) over a series of thumbs to force a certain import order sort etc...)
    I added a new shortcut action 'manage file times', for this dialog. like the other media 'manage' shortcuts, you can hit it on the dialog to ok it, too
    When you edit a saved file modified date, I have made it to update the actual file modified date on your disk too. a statement is printed to the log with old/new timestamps, just in case you ever need to recover this
    Added system:archived time search predicate! it is under the system:time stub like the other time-based search preds. it works in the system predicate parser too

    Misc:

    Fixed a stupid logical typo from 521's overhaul that was causing the advanced file deletion dialog to always set the default file deletion reason! sorry for the trouble, this one slipped through due to a tricky test situation (this data is actually calculated twice on dialog ok, and on the first run it was correct -_-)
    In the edit system predicate dialogs, when you have a list of 'recent' preds and static useful preds, if one of the recent is supposed to also appear in the statics, it now won't be duped
    Fixed a bug in the media object's file locations manager's deletion routine, which wasn't adding and removing the special 'all deleted files' domain at the UI level--not that this shows up in UI much, but the new timestamps UI revealed this
    In the janitorial 'petitions processing' page, the add and delete checkbox lists now no longer have horizontal scrollbars in any situation. previously, either list, but particularly the 'delete', at height 1, could be deceptively obscured by a pop-in scrollbar
    When you change your internal backup location, the dialog now states your current location beforehand. this information was previously not viewable! also, if you select the same location again, the process notes this and exits with no changes made
    All multi-column lists across the program now show a ? or ? on the column they are currently sorted on! this is one of those things I meant to do for ages; now it is done.
    Also, you can now right-click any multi-column list's header for a stub menu. for now it just says the thing's identifier name, but I'll start hanging things off here like individual section-size reset and, in time, finally play around with 'select columns' tech
    All menus across the program now send their longer description text to the main window status bar. until now (at least in Qt, I forget wx), this has only been true for the menubar menus
    All menus across the program now have tooltips turned on. any command with description text, which is I think pretty much all of them, will present its full written description on hover. this may end up being annoying, so let me know what you think

    Client api:

    Fixed an issue in the client api where it wasn't returning file_metadata results in the same file order you asked for. sorry for the trouble--this was softly intended, previously, but I forgot to make sure it stayed true. it also now folds in 'missing' hashes with null ids in the same position you asked for
    A new suite of unit tests check this explicitly for all the typical parameter/response types, and the new missing-hash insertion order--it shouldn't happen again!
    Just to be safe, since this is a new feature, client api version is now 44

    Boring code updates/cleanup:

    Wrote a new serialisable 'timestamp data' object to hold the various hydrus timestamps: archived, imported, deleted, previously imported, file modified, domain modified, aggregate modified, and last viewed time
    Rewrote the timestamp content update pipeline to use 'timestamp data' object
    Wrote a new database module for timestamp management off the file metadata module and migrated the domain-based modified timestamp code to it
    Migrated the 'archive time' timestamp-handling from the inbox module to the new timestamp module
    Migrated the media result timestamp-manager construction routine all down to the new timestamp module
    Migrated the aggregate modified time file search code to the new timestamp module and added archived time search too
    Wrote some UI for timestamp editing, whacked some copy/paste buttons on it too
    Moved all current/deleted timestamp handling down from the locations manager to the timestamp manager and split off 'previously imported' time, which is used to preserve import timestamp for undelete events, into its own thing rather than a tacked-on hack for deleted timestamps
    Moved all the location manager location timestamp tracking down to the timestamp manager
    The media result is now initialised with and handles an explicit copy of the timestamp manager, which is now shared to both location manager and file viewing stats manager, with duplication and merging code updated to handle this shared situation
    Moved all the media/preview 'last view time' tracking down from the file viewing stats manager to the timestamp manager, which FVS now received on initialisation
    All media-based timestamp inspection now goes through the timestamp manager
    Collections now track some aggregate timestamps a bit better, and they now calculate a archived time--not sure if it is useful, but they know it now
    Updated all parts of the timestamp system to use the same shared enums
    Cleaned the timestamp code generally
    Cleaned some file service update code generally
    Moved the main file viewing stats fetching routine for MediaResult building down to the file viewing stats module
    Updated the old custom gridbox layout to handle multiple-column-spanning controls
    Went through all the bash scripts and fixed some issues my IDE linter was moaning about. -r on reads, quotes around variable names, 4-space indenting, and neater testing of program return states

Changelog


    timestamp sidecars:

    the sidecars system now supports timestamps. it just uses the unix timestamp number, but if you need it, you can use string conversion to create a full datestring. each sidecar node only selects/sets that one timestamp, so this may get spammy if you want to migrate everything, but you can now migrate archived/imported/whatever time from one client to another! the content updates from sidecar imports apply immediately after the file is fully imported, so it is safe and good to sidecar-import 'my files imported time' etc.. for new files, and it should all get set correctly, but obviously let me know otherwise. if you set 'archived time', the files have to be in an archived state immediately after import, which means importing and archiving them previously, or hitting 'archive all imports' on the respective file import options
    sidecars are getting complex, so I expect I will soon add a button that sets up a 'full' JSON sidecar import/export in one click, basically just spamming/sucking everything the sidecar system can do, pretty soon, so it is easier to set up larger migrations

    timestamp merge:

    the duplicate merge options now have an action for 'sync file modified date?'. you can set so both files get their earliest (the new default for 'they are the same'), or that the earlier worse can be applied to the later better (the new default for 'this is better') (issue #1203)
    in the duplicate system, when URLs are merged, their respective domain-based timestamps are also merged according to the earliest, as above

    more timestamps:

    hydrus now supports timestamps before 1970. should be good now, lol, back to 1AD (and my tests show BC dates seem to be working too?). it is probably a meme to apply a modified date of 1505 to some painting, but when I add timestamps to the API maybe we can have some fun. btw calendar calculations and timezones are hell on earth at times, and there's a decent chance that your pre-1970 dates may show up on hour out of phase in labels (a daylight savings time thing) of what you enter in some other area of UI. in either case, my code is not clever enough to apply DST schedules retroactively to older dates, so your search ranges may simply be an hour out back in 1953. it sounds stupid, but it may matter if we are talking midnight boundaries, so let me know how you find it
    when you set a new file modified date, the file on disk's modified date will only be updated if the date set is after 1980-01-01 (Windows) or 1970-01-01 (Linux) due to system limitations
    fixed a typo bug in last week's work that meant file service timestamp editing was not updating the media object (i.e. changes were not visible until a restart)
    fixed a bug where collections that contained files with delete timestamps were throwing errors on display. (they were calculating aggregate timestamp data wrong)
    I rejiggered how the 'is this timestamp sensible?' test applies. this test essentially discounts any timestamp before 1970-01-08 to catch any weird mis-parses and stop them nuking your aggregate modified timestamp values. it now won't apply to internal duplicate merge and so on, but it still applies when you parse timestamps in the downloader system, so you still can't parse anything pre-1970 for now
    one thing I noticed is my '5 years 1 months ago' calculation, which uses a fixed 30 day month and doesn't count the extra day of leap years, is showing obviously increasingly inaccurate numbers here. I'll fix it up

    export folders:

    export folders can now show a popup while they work. there's a new checkbox for it in their edit UI. default is ON, so you'll start seeing popups for export folders that run in the background. this popup is cancellable, too, so you can now stop in-progress export runs if things seem wrong
    both import and export folders will force-show working popups whenever you trigger them manually
    export folders no longer have the weird and confusing 'paused' and 'run regularly?' duality. this was a legacy error handling thing, now cleaned up and merged into 'run regularly?'
    when 'run regularly?' is unchecked, the run period and new 'show popup while working regularly?' checkboxes are now disabled

    misc:

    added 'system:ratio is square/portrait/landscape' nicer label aliases for =/taller/wider 1:1 ratio. I added them to the quick-select list on the edit panel, too. they also parse in the system predicate parser!
    I added a bit to the 'getting started with downloading' help page about getting access to difficult sites. I refer to Hydrus Companion as a good internal login solution, and link to yt-dlp, gallery-dl, and imgbrd-grabber with a little discussion on setting up external import workflows. I tried gallery-dl on twitter this week and it was excellent. it can also take your login credentials as either user/pass or cookies.txt (or pull cookies straight from firefox/safari) and give access to nsfw. since twitter has rapidly become a pain for us recently, I will be pointing people to gallery-dl for now
    fixed my Qt subclass definitions for PySide6 6.5.0, which strictly requires the Qt object to be the rightmost base class in multiple inheritance subclasses, wew. this his AUR users last week, I understand!

    client api (and local booru lol):

    if you set the Client API to not allow non-local connections, it now binds to 127.0.0.1 and ::1 specifically, which tell your OS we only want the loopback interface. this increases security, and on Windows should mean it only does that first-time firewall dialog popup when 'allow non-local connections' is unchecked
    I brushed up the manage services UI for the Client API. the widgets all line up better now, and turning the service on and off isn't the awkward '[] do not run the service' any more
    fixed the 'disable idle mode if the client api does stuff' check, which was wired up wrong! also, the reset here now fires as a request starts, not when it is complete, meaning if you are already in idle mode, a client api request will now quickly cancel idle mode and hopefully free up any locked database situation promptly

    boring cleanup and stuff:

    reworked all timestamp-datetime conversion to be happier with pre-1970 dates regardless of system/python support. it is broadly improved all around
    refactored all of the HydrusData time functions and much of ClientTime to a new HydrusTime module
    refactored the ClientData time stuff to ClientTime
    refactored some thread/process functions from HydrusData to HydrusThreading
    refactored some list splitting/throttling functions from HydrusData to a new HydrusLists module
    refactored the file filter out of ClientMedia and into the new ClientMediaFileFilter, and reworked things so the medialist filter jobs now happen at the filter level. this was probably done the wrong way around, but oh well
    expanded the new TimestampData object a bit, it can now give a nice descriptive string of itself
    wrote a new widget to edit TimestampData stubs
    wrote some unit tests for the new timestamp sidecar importer and exporter
    updated my multi-column list system to handle the deprecation of a column definition (today it was the 'paused' column in manage export folders list)
    it should also be able to handle new column definitions appearing
    fixed an error popup that still said 'run repair invalid tags' instead of 'run fix invalid tags'
    the FILE_SERVICES constant now holds the 'all deleted files' virtual domain. this domain keeps slipping my logic, so fingers crossed this helps. also means you can select it in 'system:file service' and stuff now
    misc cleaning and linting work

Changelog


    HOTFIX:

    It turns out the OpenCV update causes a dll conflict. If you update with this and cannot boot, please try deleting this file install_dircv2cv2.cp39-win_amd64.pyd
    I am building a hotfix now that does not have this update; we will gather more information and try this again later.

    Library updates:

    After successful testing amongst source users, I am finally updating the official builds and the respective requirements.txts for Qt, from 6.3.1 to 6.4.1 (with 'test' now 6.5.0), opencv-python-headless from 4.5.3.56 to 4.5.5.64 (with a new 'test' of 4.7.0.72), and in the Windows build, the mpv dll from 2022-05-01 to 2023-02-12 (API 2.0 to 2.1). if you use my normal builds, you don't have to do anything special in the update, and with luck you'll get slightly faster images, video, and UI, and with fewer bugs. if you run from source, you might want to re-run your setup_venv script--it'll update you automatically--and if you are a modern Windows source user and haven't yet, grab the new dll here and rename it to mpv-2.dll https://sourceforge.net/projects/mpv-player-windows/files/libmpv/mpv-dev-x86_64-20230212-git-a40958c.7z . there is a chance that some older OSes will not be able to boot this new build, but I think these people were already migrated to being source users when Win 7-level was no longer supported. in any case, let me know how you get on, and if you are on an older OS, be prepared to rollback if this version doesn't boot
    Setup_venv.bat (Windows source) now adds PyWin32, just like the builds (the new version of pympler, a memory management module, moans on boot if it doesn't have it)

    Timestamps:

    A couple places where fixed calendar time-deltas are converted to absolute datestrings now work better over longer times. going back (5 years, 3 months) should now work out the actual calendar dates (previously they used a rough total_num_seconds estimation) and go back to the same day of the destination month, also accounting for if that has fewer days than the starting month and handling leap years. it also handles >'12 months' better now
    In system:time predicates that use since/before a delta, it now allows much larger values in the UI, like '72 months', and it won't merge those into the larger values in the label. so if you set a gap of 100 days, it'll say that, not 3 months 10 days or whatever
    The main copy button on 'manage file times' is now a menu button letting you choose to copy all timestamps or just those for the file services. as a hacky experiment, you can also copy the file service timestamps plus one second (in case you want to try finick-ily going through a handful of files to force a certain import sort order)
    The system predicate time parsing is now more flexible. for archived, modified, last viewed, and imported time, you can now generally say all variants in the form 'import' or 'imported' and 'time' or 'date' and 'time imported' or 'imported time'.
    Fixed an issue that meant editing existing delta 'system:archived time' predicates was launching the 'date' edit panel

    Misc:

    In the 'exif and other embedded metadata' review window, which is launched from a button on the the media viewer's top hover, jpegs now state their subsampling and whether they are progressive
    Every simple place where the client eats clipboard data and tries to import something now has a unified error-reporting process. before, it would make a popup with something like 'I could not understandwhat was in the clipboard!'. Now it makes a popup with info on what was pasted, what was expected, and actual exception info. Longer info is printed to the log
    Many places across the program say the specific exception type when they report errors now, not just the string summary
    The sankaku downloader is updated with a new url class for their new md5 links. also, the file parser is updated to associate the old id URL, and the gallery parser is updated to skip the 'get sank pro' thumbnail links if you are not logged in. if you have sank subscriptions, they are going to go crazy this week due to the URL format changing--sorry, there's no nice way around it!--just ignore their popups about hitting file limits and wait them out. unfortunately, due to an unusual 404-based redirect, the id-based URLs will not work in hydrus any more
    The 'API URL' system for url classes now supports File URLs--this may help you figure out some CDN redirects and similar. in a special rule for these File URLs, both URLs will be associated with the imported file (normally, Post API URLs are not saved as Known URLs). relatedly, I have renamed this system broadly to 'api/redirect url', since we use it for a bunch of non-API stuff now
    Fixed a problem where deleting one of the new inc/dec rating services was not clearing the actual number ratings for that service from the database, causing service-id error hell on loading files with those orphaned rating records. sorry for the trouble, this slipped through testing! any users who were affected by this will also be fixed (orphan records cleared out) on update (issue #1357)
    The client cleans up the temporary paths used by file imports more carefully now: it tries more times to delete 'sticky' temp files; it tries to clear them again immediately on shutdown; and it stores them all in the hydrus temp subdirectory where they are less loose and will be captured by the final directory clear on shutdown (issue #1356)

    Enhance: Support for HTTPS using TLS certificates from Let's Encrypt:

    This update introduces HTTPS support to the application. Users can now enable HTTPS and specify a unique port number for it. This update also includes a feature to create an SSL certificate via Let's Encrypt and a table to manage the selection of SSL certificates.
    To support the process of obtaining TLS certificates, an HTTP validation port can be defined. This port is used specifically for domain validation during the certificate acquisition process.
    A new screen, "Create TLS Certificate," has also been added. Here, users can input their domain(s), provide an email for important notifications, and agree to Let's Encrypt's terms of service. These enhancements aim to simplify the management of HTTPS.
    Kindly be aware that the newly introduced HTTPS support feature is in its experimental stage and might contain some bugs. We appreciate your assistance in reporting any issues you encounter.
    Fix: Addressed an issue that caused a NullPointerException during movie import when the "Franchise" movie list had duplicate entries. The solution removes these duplicates while preserving the original order, keeping only the final instance of each repeated entry.

Changelog


    There will be an important update next week:

    Next week's release will have two important program changes--I will integrate an OpenCV update, which will require 'extract' users to perform a clean install, and the executables are finally changing from 'client' and 'server' to 'hydrus_client' and 'hydrus_server'! be prepared to update your shortcuts and launch scripts

    Time:

    Ixed a stupid logical bug in my new date code, which was throwing errors on system:time predicates that had a month value equal to the current month (e.g. 'x years, 5 months' during May)--sorry! (issue #1362)
    When a subscription dies, the popup note about it says the death velocity period in the neat '180 days', as you set in UI, rather than converting to a date and stating the number of months and days using the recent calendar calculation updates
    I unified some more 'xxxified date' UI labels to be 'xxxified time'. we're generally moving to the latter format as the ideal while still accepting various combinations for system parsing input

    Shortcuts:

    Added 'media play-pause/previous/next' and 'volume up/down/mute' key recognition to the shortcut system. if your keyboard/headphones have media keys, they should be mappable now. note, however, that, at least on Windows, while these capture in the hydrus UI, they seem to have global OS-level hooks, and as far as I can tell Qt can't stop that event propagating, so these may have limited effectiveness if you also have an mp3 player open, since Windows will also send the 'next' call to that etc... it may be there is a nice way to properly register a Qt app as a media thing for Windows to global-hook these events to, but I'm not sure!
    Also added 'mouse task button' to the mappable buttons. this is apparently a common Mouse6 mapping, so if you have it, knock yourself out
    The code in the shortcut system that tries to detect and merge many small scroll wheel events (such as the emulated scroll that a trackpad may generate) now applies to all mouse devices, not just synthesised events. with luck, this will mean that mice that generate like 15 smoothscroll events of one degree instead of one of fifteen degrees for every wheel tick will no longer spam-navigate the media viewer wew

    Misc:

    To save you typing/pasting time, the 'enter your reason' prompts in manage tags, tag siblings, and tag parents now remember the last five custom reasons you enter! you can change the number saved using the new option under options->tags, including setting it to 0 to disable the system
    Fixed pasting tags in the manage tags dialog when the number of tags you are pasting is larger than the number of allowed 'recent tags'. previously it was saying 'did not understand what was in the clipboard', so hooray for the new error reporting
    Every multi-column list in the program now has a 'reset column widths' item in its header right-click menu! when these reset events happen, the respective lists also resize themselves immediately, no restart required
    When you set 'try again' on an import object, it now clears all saved hashes from the import object (including the SHA256 which may have been linked from the database in an 'already in db'/'previously deleted' result). this will ensure the next attempt is not poisoned by these hashes (which can happen for various reasons) in the subsequent attempt. basically 'try again' resets better now (issue #1353)

    Some build stuff:

    The main build script now only uses Node16 sub-Actions (Node12 support is deprecated and being dropped in June)
    The main build script no longer uses set-output commands (these are deprecated and being dropped later in the year I think, in favour of some ENV stuff)
    Tidied some cruft from the main build script
    I moved the 'new' python-mpv in the requirements.txts from 1.0.1 to 1.0.3. source users might like to rebuild their venvs again, particularly Windows users who updated to the new mpv dll recently

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

Freeware

Whats new:>>

    Added : Third order by field in Reports.
    Added : F5 shortcut for saving in the album properties.
    Added : Search in the Manage program data dialog.
    Changed : Many internal improvements.
    Fixed : Some minor bugs.

Changelog

    Version 4.9 brings you a whole new module to register Comic Books. It is supported by the invaluable online source that is https://comicvine.gamespot.com.
    I have not yet created a DMG for MacOS, I am planning on creation and uploading this package, as part of this release, within the next few days.

    [New]:

    Data Crow synchronization service for external (to Data Crow) devices. This service allows both module and data to be synchronized. At the current stage, it's a one way synchronization going from Data Crow to the external device. This is the build up for something great(er) in the near future.
    New module: comic books.
    New online search for comics: Comic Vine
    New online search for comic book characters: Comic Vine

    [Fixed]:

    NPE exception during the set up of the user folder due to the logger not having been initialized yet. This issue will hide the real underlying issue.
    Fixed an error on startup for MacOS (from the terminal).
    Fixed an error on startup for OpenJDK.
    Items not described correctly for none standard modules.
    Icon not showing for the shortcut created on Linux.
    Uniqueness check not working correctly if one of the fields is a key field but not a required field.
    The online search breaks the uniqueness check, causing duplicate items to be added.
    Clear on online search form did not clear the quick view panel.
    References field, selection dialog, did not adhere to "descriptive" setting of the module.
    Now if you supply credentials when creating a new Data Crow instance, Data Crow will create a user with these credentials. This is true for both the client and the server edition if the parameter -credentials has been supplied (see: https://datacrow.org/docs/starting-data-crow/)
    Mass update for board games was not working.
    Mass update incorrectly causing warnings on item uniqueness.
    Mass update for books did not correctly check on the ISBN field.

    Internal structural changes have been made to allow the Data Crow core library to be incorporated in other applications. Most importantly the logging mechanism is now completely decoupled from the code as such that any other logging mechanism can be be used, suitable for the targeted platform. Other major changes have been made to significantly reduce the references to the AWT and Swing libraries (GUI) from the Data Crow core library. The exception to the latter are the image classes.
    The module wizard now allows you to create references to the same module multiple times.
    Removed setting: "delete picture file after adding it to an item"
    Report dialog now remembers selected target file per module and additionally also remembers the selected report and report format

    Important updates:

    There are important technical updates this week that will require most users to update differently!
    First, OpenCV is updated to a new version, and this causes a dll conflict on at least one platform, necessitating a clean install
    Second, the program executables are renamed from 'client' and 'server' to 'hydrus_client' and 'hydrus_server', necessitating shortcut updates
    As always, but doubly so this week, I strongly recommend you make a backup before updating. the instructions are simple, but if there is a problem, you'll always be able to roll back
    So, in summary, for each install type--
    If you use the windows installer, install as normal. your start menu 'hydrus client' shortcut should be overwritten with one to the new executable, so you don't have to do anything there, but if you use a custom shortcut, you will need to update that too
    If you use one of the normal extract builds, you will have to do a 'clean install', as here https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/getting_started_installing.html#clean_installs . you also need to update your program shortcuts
    MacOS users have no special instructions. update as normal
    Source users, git pull as normal. if you haven't already, feel free to run setup_venv again to get the new OpenCV. update your launch scripts to point at the new 'hydrus_client.py' scripts
    If you have patched my code, particularly the boot code, obviously update your patches! the 'hydrus_client.py' scripts just under 'hydrus' module all got renamed to '_boot' too!
    Also, some related stuff like firewall rules (if you run the Client API) may need updating!

    Boring related update stuff:

    The Windows build's sqlite3.dll and exe command line interface are updated to the latest, 3.41.2
    The 'updating' help now has a short section for the 526->527 update step, reiterating the above
    The builds no longer include the hydrus source in the 'hydrus' subdirectory. this was an old failed test in dual-booting that was mostly forgotten about and now cleaned up. if you want to run from source, get the source
    The windows hydrus_client and hydrus_server executables now have proper version info if you right-click->properties and look at the details tab

    Qt Media Player:

    THIS IS VERY BUGGY AND SOMETIMES CRASHY; DISABLED FOR MOST USERS; NOT FOR NORMAL USE YET
    I have integrated Qt's Media Player into hydrus. it is selectable in options->media (if you are an advanced user and running from source) and it works like my native viewer or mpv. it has good pixels-on-screen performance and audio support, but it is buggy and my implementation is experimental. for some reason, it crashes instantly when running from a frozen executable, so it is only available for source users atm. I would like feedback from advanced source users who have had trouble with mpv--does it work? how well? any crashes?
    This widget appears to be under active development by the Qt guys. the differences between 6.4.1 vs 6.5.0 are significant. I hope the improvements continue!

    Current limitations are:

    It is only available on Qt6, sorry legacy Qt5 source users
    This thing crashed the program like hell during development. I tightened it up and can't get it to crash any more with my test files on source, but be careful
    The video renderer is OpenGL and in Qt world that seems to mean it is ALWAYS ON TOP at all times. although it doesn't interfere with click events if you aim for the scanbar (so Qt's z-indexing logic is still correct), its pixels nonetheless cover the scanbar and my media viewer hover windows (I will have to figure out a different scanbar layout with this thing)
    Longer audio-only files often stutter intolerably
    Many videos can't scan beyond the start
    Some videos turn into pixel wash mess
    Some videos seem to be cropped wrong with green bars in the spare space
    It spams a couple lines of file parsing error/warning info to the log for many videos. sometimes it spams a lot continuously. no idea how to turn it off!
    Anyway, despite the bugs and crashing, I found this thing impressive and I hope it can be a better fallback than my rubbish native viewer in future. it is a shame it crashes when built, but I'll see what I can do. maybe it'll be ready for our purposes by Qt7

    Misc:

    If twisted fails to load, its exact error is saved, and if you try to launch a server, that error is printed to the log along with the notification popup

Changelog

    Enhance: Support for 2160p video
    I've introduced a trial support for 2160p video quality. Please be aware, though, that this may not be as dependable as the 1080p due to the increased file sizes of the videos, which might exceed the browser's video source buffer if a segment is too large.
    In addition, when videos are encoded using x264 8-bit, the system will allow "Best" quality, indicating that no video transcoding will be required. However, if the video segments turn out to be too large for the browser's video source buffer, this could lead to video freezing. If you encounter any problems, we recommend setting the quality to "Medium" which will trigger the video to be re-encoded, or reducing the segment duration in the settings.
    Please note, reducing the segment duration may not resolve the issue if the source video has keyframes that are spaced further apart than the segment duration. Furthermore, if video re-encoding is required, this will demand a significant increase in CPU processing power.
    Fix: Enhancements to Lucene Index Rebuilding and Restoration Process
    We've resolved two issues related to the Lucene search index rebuilding process. First, a bug that prevented the current "index" directory from being renamed to "index.old" due to an unclosed index reader has been fixed. Second, we've corrected an issue that resulted in premature deletion of "index.old" during a cancelled rebuild, which hindered the restoration of the previous index. These fixes improve the reliability of the index rebuilding and cancellation processes.
    Fix: Improvement to Unused Video File Detection in 'Fix File Paths' Utility
    We've made a correction to the "Fix File Paths" utility. Previously, it was not identifying unused video files within the app. This issue has now been addressed, ensuring all unused video files are reported correctly.
    Change:Enhancements to Audio Channel Matching and Rendition Selection in HLS Videos
    We've implemented several improvements to HLS video handling. First, the number of audio channels in the output now accurately reflects the source; if the source has 6 channels, the output will too, with the audio bitrate adjusting accordingly. Previously, the output was always set to 2 channels. Second, we've resolved a bug that prevented some lower bitrate renditions from being selected. All renditions are now available and divided equally between "Medium" and "Low" quality. For instance, if there are 8 renditions arranged in descending bitrate order, the top 4 will be assigned to "Medium" quality and the remaining 4 to "Low" quality.
    Change: Remove support for TVdb data import.
    We are discontinuing support for importing data from TVdb. Please note, this is due to the requirement of a paid subscription for TVdb. Consequently, this feature will no longer be available.

Changelog


    Faster file search cancelling:

    If you start a large file search and then update or otherwise cancel it, the existing ongoing search should stop a little faster now
    All timestamp-based searches now cancel very quickly. if you do a bare 'all files imported in the last six months' search and then amend it with 'system:inbox', it should now update super fast
    All note-based searches now cancel quickly, either num_notes or note_names
    All rating-based searches now cancel quickly
    All OR searches cancel faster
    And, in all cases, the cancel tech works a little faster by skipping any remaining search more efficiently
    Relatedly, I upgraded how I do the query cancel tech here to be a bit easier to integrate, and I switched the 20-odd existing cancels over to it. I'd like to add more in future, so let me know what cancels slow!

    System predicate parsing:

    The parser is more forgiving of colons after the basename, e.g. 'system:import time: since 2023-01-01' now parses ok
    Added 'since', 'before', 'around', and 'day'/month' variants to system datetime predicate parsing as more human analogues of the '>' etc... operators
    You can now say 'imported', 'modified', 'last viewed', and 'archived' without the 'time' part ('system:modified before 2020-01-01')
    Also, 'system:archived' with a 'd' will now parse as 'system:archive'
    You now can stick 'ago' ('system:imported 7 days ago') on the end of a timedelta time system pred and it should parse ok! this should fix the text that is copied to clipboard from timedelta system preds
    The system predicate parser now handles 'file service' system preds when your given name doesn't match due to upper/lowercase, and more broadly when the service has upper case characters. some stages of parsing convert everything to lowercase, making this tricky, but in general it now does a sweep of what you entered and then a sweep that ignores case entirely. related pro-tip: do not give two services the same name but with different case

    Misc:

    You can now edit the default slideshow durations that show up in the media viewer right-click menu, under options->media. it is a bit hacky, but it works just like the custom zoom steps, with comma-separated floats
    Fixed 'system:num notes < x', which was not including noteless files (i.e. num_notes = 0) in the result
    Fixed a bug in manage services when adding a local file service and then deleting it in the same dialog open. a test that checks if the thing is empty of files before the delete wasn't recognising it didn't exist yet
    Improved type checking when pasting timestamps in the datetime widget, I think it was breaking some (older?) versions of python

    Some more build stuff:

    Fixed the macOS App, which was showing a 'no' symbol rather than launching due to one more thing that needed to be redirected from 'client' to 'hydrus_client' last week (issue #1367)
    Fixed a second problem with the macOS app (unlike PyInstaller, PyOxidizer needed the 'hydrus' source directory, so that change is reverted)
    I believe I've also fixed the client launching for some versions of Python/PyQt6, which had trouble with the QMediaPlayer imports
    Cleaned up the PyInstall spec files a little more, removing some 'hidden-import' stuff from the pyinstaller spec files that was no longer used and pushing the server executables to the binaries section
    Added a short section to the Windows 'running from source' help regarding pinning a shortcut to a bat to Start--there's a neat way to do it, if Windows won't let you
    Updated a couple little more areas in the help for client->hydrus_client

    Similar files search:

    Hydrus now supports a 'SauceNAO'-style workflow on its own files, quickly looking up if you have something that looks like the given file, without having to import it, using a new variant of the 'system:similar to' search predicate. just open up the new 'system:similar files' entry, which now has two tabs, and on the first just paste image data or a file path from your clipboard and it'll calculate the data for you
    Similar files also gets a search cache this week. this makes all repeat searches massively faster, helps out successive searches (e.g. the same file at 0, 4, then 8 distance), and should accelerate all maintenance search by a good bit depending on the size and shape of your database (on my test database of only ~10k files, it sped things up 3-4x)
    'system:similar to' search predicates are no longer mutually exclusive in the same search--you can now have multiple
    Cleaned up a bunch of the similar files code generally. the main search function is split into pieces and common calls are spun off into their own thing

    Misc:

    Added a new shortcut action, 'open file in file explorer', which opens the file in your file Explorer. if you haven't used this before, it only works on Windows and macOS and can be buggy. on Windows, if the explorer takes too long to open, it won't select the file correctly, so hit it again
    Thanks to a user, the html parsing formula can now search in a sideways direction, either finding the previous or following sibling html tags (as opposed to just search descendants/ancestors)
    If an export folder is set to 'synchronise' and also needs to delete some symlinks (either it regularly makes symlinks, or it is clearing symlinks from an old run), and those symlinks now point to since-deleted files, the dead symlinks should now delete correctly! thanks for an interesting report here
    The docker build now has pympler support for memory profiling. note that this does not work very well--it is unfathomably laggy atm for any client of real size, so bear with me
    The new Qt Media Player experiment is now more careful about how it deletes old windows. old players are handed off to the main gui, which takes ownership and explicitly waits for them to finish current work, then asks them to unload their media, and then, only when they are all clear sends the window delete signal. this should stop some READY/NULL errors people were seeing on unload, and hopefully without causing new stability problems (I've had crash trouble with explicitly unloading media before destroy before, but I'm doing it super safe here, so we'll see)
    I added some more error reporting to the related area in the mpv player--if it fails to unload a media, it now prints the details to log--let's see if we can improve this too
    When files fail to import for reasons other than veto or unsupported file, they now say the actual exception type in their first line summary

    Client api:

    When the api sends a file to be imported and it fails, the response 'note' now just has this human-readable top level line (it used to have the full error trace), and a new entry 'traceback' has the trace
    The client api version is now 45

    Future build:

    To improve library update testing, I have set up a second, 'future' build that is the same as a normal release but uses newer library versions, for instance Python 3.10 from 3.9 and Qt 6.5.0 rather than 6.4.1. I am not sure how often I will be making this build--I don't want to spam, so I'm thinking once per month, but maybe we'll ultimately end up incorporating it into the main build and just kick it out every week--but please feel free to test them out as they do happen and let me know if you encounter any problems booting or with anything else. the idea here is to get more user situations, particularly older OSes, testing pending library updates so I can be more confident about pulling the trigger on moving up in the master build (the recent jump to Qt 6.4.1 caused several Win 10 users to have an annoying 2-second delay on opening any new search page, but 6.5.0 doesn't have this, so if you encountered this error, please try this build and let me know how it goes). the build is in the normal github releases stream, marked as a pre-release.

    Fields including Rotten Tomatoes Rating, IMDB rating, Metascore rating, and others are now editable within the movie edit screen. The box office field, now modifiable, has been added to the 'Details' tab.
    Enhancement: IMDB Episode-Level Ratings and Vote Count
    Episode-level ratings and vote counts from IMDB is now imported and editiable in the movie edit screen.
    Enhancement: Remove Derived Image Files Utility
    Updated the 'Remove Derived Image Files' utility to provide real-time progress updates and a cancellation option in the utility screen.
    Fix: Video Player
    The video player now resets the last seek position upon exit. This resolves the issue of progress updates being halted when the player is closed before the last seek operation completes from the previously played video.
    Fix: Playback Position
    In instances where a movie or episode has numerous releases, we've corrected an error that caused the playback to resume from the last position of the previously played release, instead of the last played position of the selected release.
    Fix: Autocompletion Feature import.
    Autocompletion for file, subtitle file, subtitle language, and subtitle description will now correctly appear even when more than one file exists, fixing a previous issue.
    Fix: Movie list import change
    Previously, there were instances where a movie list might appear empty due to specific internal conditions like hidden movies or missing alternate versions. Now, we've improved our system to avoid this confusion. With this update, you will no longer encounter movie lists that show no movies.

Changelog


    Autocomplete and system predicates:

    The normal autocomplete text input in file search pages now parses system tags if you type them! For a long time, this cool system has only been awkwardly available, but now it should work straight out of the box. not every predicate is supported, and sometimes what parses is slightly different to what you see, but I am improving things regularly, so let me know what doesn't work
    The normal autocomplete text input in file search pages now has a paste button! it takes tags in the normal newline-separated hydrus format and is plugged into the system predicate parser too. it should obey the same rules as if you were typing, so if you put in a negated tag, or a wildcard or namespace wildcard, and that's allowed with your current settings, it'll propagate. anything that isn't allowed or won't parse correctly is skipped silently for now
    The system predicate parser now supports the new 'similar to data' similar files search added last week. there isn't an easy way to generate the pixel and perceptual hashes yet (this will come soon to the Client API), but if you have the hashes, the thing should now parse. same format as the existing 'similar to( files)', but just say 'similar to data' and mix and match the 64- and 16-character hashes and it'll figure it out
    Fixed system predicate parsing for 'system:has note with name xxx', which was parsing as a borked 'system:has note(s)', and the same deal for 'has no note'
    Also made the 'system:has/no notes' and 'system:has a note named xxx' more flexible. they can take more english variants of the phrase, and if you give a note name in "quotes" (e.g. if you copy the system predicate string and paste it back in), it'll strip them

    Misc:

    Highlighting a gallery downloader or thread watcher is now asynchronous! this means if you load up a meaty uncached 3,000-strong downloader, the client will no longer lock up for a few seconds--it'll load the files in the background, in 256-file chunks like a normal search page, and then present them when ready. while in the loading state, the to-be-highlighted downloader will be prepended with > instead of * , and its loading is completely cancellable--you can unhighlight it or highlight something else and the ongoing job will promptly cancel and let the new one start. if a loading job takes more than three seconds, it will make a popup window with its ongoing progress, which also has a cancel button
    When you say to 'open files in a new page', the current file sort and collect is copied to the new page, and if you have a collect set, the new page will collect
    When parsing URLs and attempting to match relative URLs (''/post/123456') to the original domain ('example.com'), if that join fails, it now just adds the parsed text. this should stop borked errors from halting the whole parse (e.g. mysterious 'Invalid IPv6 URL' error, which was probably an errantly parsed open square bracket) while also helping debugging
    Improved URL-repairing in parsing. it trims gumpf before a recognisable URL (title - https://example.com/123456) is now more precise, and instances of weird scheme-spam (https://http://example.com/123456) are now fixed for mixes of schemes and replaced with the final scheme
    The thumbnail duplicate files menu now tries to recognise if the king of a group has been deleted and will say so rather than 'show the best quality file of this file's group'
    If you open some duplicate files from the right-click menu (e.g. show 'king') and the search can't find them, it now searches "all known files" as a backup and tells you in a popup if the backup worked or if it just couldn't find anything

    Some boring cleanup:

    Refactored the media controller (which drives every page in the client) and the media controller panel (the actual UI) code into separate files; now the various other guys that look at the controller have proper typing and inheritance, and all the thumbnail grids are now explicitly told their respective media controllers and have better access to stuff like the current sort
    The sort widget no longer hangs onto the media controller--it just communicates changes through Qt signals
    Same doubly so for the collect widget, which no longer has a mickey-mouse pubsub chain and just Qt signals its stuff now
    Misc page code and sort/collect code cleanup, multiple orphaned pubsubs removed
    Moved ClientSearch and ClientSearchParseSystemPredicates to a new 'search' module
    Spun off the autocomplete parsing and result caching code into a new ClientSearchAutocomplete
    Added a heap of note system predicates to the system pred parsing unit tests, and some for the new 'similar to data' too
    Updated the requests in the requirements.txts up from 2.28.1 to 2.31.0 due to some security vulnerability related to Proxy-Authorization headers and in-url user/pass authentication when redirecting to an https destination. I don't think we used that stuff (unless the proxy settings cause it to happen under the hood), but let's update anyway. if you run from source, you might like to run setup_venv again

Manage large media collections and re-organize them using tags instead of folders that you can share via custom servers with this application.

The Unlicense

Changelog


    misc:

    fixed editing favourite searches, which I accidentally broke last week with the collect-by updates
    when you right-click a tag and get the siblings/parents menus, the list of copyable siblings, parents, and children is now truncated to 10 items each per service. stuff like pokemon has hundreds of children and for a very long time has been spamming giganto 11-column menus that cover the entire screen
    same menu truncation for the open/copy URLs menu. if there's a file that has 600 URLs for interesting technical reasons, it won't nuke you any more (issue #1037)
    updated the default pixiv file page parser, which recently broke for users who were not logged in. they seem to hide original size behind the login now, so if you do a lot of pixiv work, get Hydrus Companion or figure out a cookies.txt solution and get yourself logged in
    the downloader progress panels have a couple of status text improvements: first, they will stop saying 'waiting for a work slot' when the actual error is something unusual such as the gallery search hitting the file limit. second, when there is an unusual status and the downloader is in the paused state, it can now properly differentiate between 'paused' and 'pausing'
    some invalid URL strings now raise the correct error in the downloader system, causing them to be properly filtered away instead of sticking around and being unhelpful
    if there is a connection error because of an SSL issue, the network job is now retried like any other connection error. I originally thought these were all non-retryable like cert validation errors, but it seems some of them are just write timeouts etc.. during the negotiation, so let's see how it goes
    I believe I have fixed an error when selecting a tag in a list when that list had been previously shift-selected and then cleared and repopulated
    manage siblings and parents should be better about focusing the correct text input after they boot and load
    in future, if a taglist tries to deselect something it no longer has, it'll do an emergency 'deselect all' to exorcise the ghosts fully
    reworded the text around 'reset potential duplicates' action in the duplicates page to be more clear on what it does
    I tinkered with some of the shutdown code hoping to catch an odd issue of the exit 'last session' not saving correctly, but I don't think I figured the issue out. if you have noticed you boot up and get a session that missed up to the last 15 minutes of changes before you last shut down, please let me know you your details
    added a link to tagrank, a new Client API project at https://github.com/matjojo/tagrank, to the Client API help. it shows you pairs of comparison images over and over and uses trueskill ranking algorithm to figure out which tags are your favourite
    added a link to 'Send to Hydrus', a Client API project at https://github.com/Wyrrrd/send-to-hydrus, to the Client API help. it sends URLs from an Android device to your client

    client api:

    as part of a plan to migrate to service_key indexing everywhere and reduce file_metadata bloat, the client api has a new services structure, a service information Object where service_key is the key. this is now in the /get_services call and /get_files/file_metadata, under services under the root. the old type-based structure in /get_services and the in-file embedding of service info in /get_files/file_metadata are still in place, so nothing breaks today, but I am officially declaring them deprecated, to be deleted in 2024, and recommend all Client API devs move to the new system before the new year
    the new service object also includes info on the local rating services. I'd like to add ratings to file_metadata fairly soon
    if you don't want the services object in /get_files/file_metadata, there's a new include_services_object param you can set to false to hide it
    updated the unit tests and client api help to reflect all this. main new section: https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/developer_api.html#services_object
    the client api version is now 46

    update woes:

    I somewhat successfully pounded my head against an issue where the first tab (usually 'my tags') was disappearing in the manage tags/siblings/parents dialogs for some users. this bug, for real, seems to be the combination of (Python 3.11 + PyQt6 6.5.x + two tabs + total tab text characters > ~12 + tab selection is set to 1 during init event). Change any of those things and it doesn't happen. This is so weird a problem to otherwise normal code that I won't pivot all my 50-odd instances of tab selection to handle it and instead have hacked an answer for the three tag dialogs and filename tagging. Sorry for the trouble if you got this! Let me know if you see any more
    in a similar-but-different thing, PySide6 6.5.1 has a bug related to certain Signal connections. don't use it with hydrus, it messes up all my menus! their dev notes suggest they are going to have a fix/revert for 6.5.1.1

Changelog

[Fixed]

    Issue with self referencing items; right-click menu not showing in view for referenced item.
    Fixed an issue where quick search is not working when the item holds a reference to an item of module with having the first numeric field set as descriptive.
    Settings not saved on exit when Data Crow asks for a restart.
    When an item has a self referencing field it caused the item form to always say there are unsaved changes regardless of having made changes.
    Values present in self referencing fields were exported to XML with their ID only.
    Item was able to referencing itself. This causes all kinds of issues; now, when trying to save an item that references itself, the system will prevent you from doing so. Note that it was not possible to filter them from the various fields, this would trigger a rewrite of the way fields are generated. Maybe something for later. The upgrade will remove self referencing values if present (silently).
    Custom property modules can now be deleted, also when they have not yet been assigned to a reference(s) field.
    Reference drop-down not sorted per the user settings.
    Collation issues in the tree view in case the first descriptive field is a numeric field.
    Tree view did not always adhere to the descriptive settings.
    Apply button will now remain disabled when a merge has been completed.
    Server error response was not correctly send to connected clients.
    Editing an item in the table view could result in loss of multi-reference values.
    JasperReports dependencies were missing causing in functions to fail when generating the report.
    Stop button for report generation did not work. It now stops the exporting process. Known issue is that the report generation process of Jasper Reports can not be stopped.
    Stop button is for report generation is only active when a process is running.
    Update All dialog could be opened multiple times. Now it blocks access to the view and therefore also blocks the selection of items as made on opening this tool.

[Changed]

    Added UI scaling option to the Look and Feel settings (25% to 300%)
    Introduction of cascade delete; when you delete properties / referenced items Data Crow will ask you to delete the references to this item as well.
    A status bar has been added to the view(s).

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

    Enhancement: Interface Enhancements:

    Changes in the 'Change Password', 'Log in As', 'Reauthorize Admin User', 'About', and 'Clear History' confirmation windows have been implemented for enhanced user experience. The 'Cancel' button has been removed from these windows, enabling cancellation by either clicking outside the window or hitting the ESC key. Furthermore, various button names have been updated to match their functionality: 'OK' to 'Change Password', 'Yes' to 'Log in As', 'OK' to 'Continue', and 'Yes' to 'Clear History'.

    Enhancement: Password Visibility Update:

    A new password visibility feature is introduced, represented by a hide/show eye icon in all password fields. As a result, 'Confirm Password' fields in the 'Settings' screen and 'Confirm User Password' field in the 'Edit User' screen have been eliminated.

    Fix: ffmpeg.exe Termination Fix:

    Resolved an issue with ffmpeg.exe not terminating after trailer completion or user exit from the player. Similairly resolved issue with ffmpeg.exe not terminating after using if for snapshot capturing in the movie edit screen.

    Misc:

    Whenever you say 'show these files in a new page', the new page now has a search interface. it starts with a 'system:hash' pre-populated with the files' hashes, so you can now easily narrow down or return to the stuff you are playing with! original file sort order is preserved until you alter or refresh the search
    Tags' right-click->search menu now has a 'open in a new duplicate filter' for quick spawning of duplicate filters for specific searches
    The duplicate filter no longer flicks to the 'preparation' tab if there is work to do on the first numbers fetch. this thing has been driving me nuts, I don't know why I wrote it that way to begin with
    Improved the reliability of certain session object saving--I believe some situations where the 'searching immediately' and 'this search was completed' status where not being saved for some page queries. this may solve a long time bug where some pages would refresh on load
    All search pages that load with files now explicitly reaffirm internally that they are starting with a completed search, which should reduce some related edge case buggy behaviour here
    The 'string to string' edit control now tries to compensate if it is incorrectly given non-string data. somewhere in the html parsing formula UI this happened, an integer sneaking in the key/value of the tag rule, maybe by manual human JSON editing, but I'm not really sure. should be handled correctly now though. let me know if you are into this and discover anything
    Every 'eventFilter' in the program now catches Exceptions ruthlessly. it turns out Qt can't handle an Exception escaping one of these, and this may be the cause of some >=v530 crashing on macOS related to multi-column list interaction under issue #1379. it is probably the cause of some other crashes that I haven't been able to figure out--these will now give normal popup errors, so let me know if you see anything. if you have had crazy crashes in macOS recently and these changes don't fix you, reverting back to v529 is apparently ok! there have been no big database updates in that time, so you should be able to just install v529 on your existing install and be off
    The routine that purges files from the trash now uses fewer database queries to find eligable files. some Linux guys have been working with me on memory explosions possibly in this area--let me know if you notice any difference
    The 'clear trash' command in review services is politer to your database, breaking up a large amount of trash into smaller groups
    The program no longer moans to the log when it physically deletes a file and files no accompanying thumbnail to delete--this is true for several situations, and not worth the logspam
    Fixed a typo error in the url class links 'try to fill in the gaps' command

    Pixiv downloader:

    I reworked the pixiv parser changes from a couple weeks ago. as background, what happened is pixiv said if you aren't logged in, you can't get the 'original' quality of the file any more. my first fix was to say 'ok, if the user is not logged in, get the lower quality', but this was the wrong decision. the parser now vetoes, causing an 'ignored' result and telling you the problem in the import note. if you do want to get the lower quality image and not log in, this is now selectable as an alternate parser under network->downloader components->manage url class links
    Also, a variety of old pixiv objects and other experiments are deleted and merged today. the parsers that worked on the old html format, pixiv manga page parser, pixiv manga_big page parser, pixiv single file page parser - new layout, and pixiv tag search gallery page parser will be deleted from your client, and the old gallery url class, pixiv tag search gallery page meets a similar fate. pixiv manga_big page and pixiv manga page are removed and their urls merged into a more accomodating pixiv file page, which stays to hold all the legacy pixiv URLs, which on the site are automatically redirected to the new format. thanks to a user for helping me with what here was cruft (issue #947)

    Mpv logging and emergency halt:

    A user sent me a cool truncated twitter video download that, when loaded into mpv, would crash the program after a click or two around the player. this sent me on an odyssey into the mpv logging system and event loop and some really bizarre behaviour under the hood, and, long story short, mpv will notice this particular problem class in future and immediately unload the file and present the user with a dialog explaining the issue. it also won't let you load that file again that boot
    To recognise this error class, I broaden what is logged and scan the lines as they come in. I've been careful in how I filter, but it may produce some false positives. let me know if this thing triggers for any files that seem fine in an external player
    Errors of unknown severity are now printed silently to the log with a little intro text saying which file it was and so on. there are a bunch of these with the sorts of files we deal with, stuff like missing chapter marks or borked header data. I expect I'll work on silencing the ones we confirm are no big deal, but if you encounter a ton of them, particularly if you know some cause crashes, please now check your log and let me know what you see
    If you have two mpv players playing media at the same time, this reporting system will report the info for both files--sorry, I had to hack this gubbins! future versions of mpv or python-mpv may open some doors here

    Client api:

    The /get_files/file command now has a download=true parameter which converts the Content-Disposition from inline (show the file) to attachment (auto-download or open save-as dialog) (issue #1375)
    Added help and a unit test for the above
    Client api version is now 47

Changelog


    Misc:

    The download panels in subscription popup windows are now significantly more responsive. ever since the popup manager was embedded into the gui, popup messages were not doing the 'should I update myself?' test correctly, and their network UI was not being updated without other events like surrounding widgets resizing. I was wondering what was going on here for ages--turns out it was regular stupidity
    If an image has width or height > 1024, the 'share->copy' menu now shows a second, 'source lookup' bitmap, with the resolution clipped to 1024x1024
    'sort files by hash' can now be sorted asc or desc. this also fixes a bug where it was secretly either sorting asc or desc based on the previous selection. well done to the user who noticed and tested this
    If system:limit=0 is in a search, the search is no longer run--it comes back immediately empty. also, the system:limit edit panel now has a minimum value of 1 to dissuade this state
    The experimental QtMediaPlayer now initialises with the correct volume/mute and updates on volume/mute events. the scanbar and volume control UI are still hidden behind the OpenGL frame for now, but one step forward
    The system that caches media results now hangs on to the most recent 2048 files aggressively for two minutes after initial load. previously, if you refreshed a page of unique files, or did some repeated client api work on files that were not loaded somewhere as thumbs, in the interim periods those media objects were not strictly in non-weak memory anywhere in the client and could have been eligible for clearing out of the cache. now they are a bit more sticky
    Added some info on editing predicates and the various undocumented click shortcuts the taglist supports (e.g. ctrl+double-left-click) to the 'getting started with searching and sorting' help page
    Added a link to the Client API help for 'Hydrus Video Deduplicator' (https://github.com/appleappleapplenanner/hydrus-video-deduplicator), which neatly discovers duplicate videos in your client and queues them up in the duplicate filter by marking them as 'potential dupes'

    Sub-gallery url network parsing gubbins:

    Sub-gallery import objects now get the tags and custom headers that are parsed with them. if the sub-gallery urls are parsed in 'posts' using a subsidiary parser, they only inherit the metadata within their post
    Sub-gallery import objects now use their parent gallery urls as referral header
    Sub-gallery import objects now inherit the 'can generate more pages' state of their parents (previously it was always 'yes')
    'next page' gallery urls do not get the tags they are parsed with. this behaviour makes a little less sense, and I suspect it could cause various troubles, so I'll wait for more input, bug reports, and a larger cleanup and overhaul of how metadata is managed and passed down from one item to the next in the downloader system
    Generally speaking, when file and gallery import objects have the opportunity to acquire tags or headers, they'll now add to the existing store rather than replace it. this should mean if they both inherit and parse stuff, it won't all overwrite each other. this is all a giant mess so I have a cleanup overhaul planned

    Boring stuff:

    If a critical drive error occurs (e.g. running out of space on a storage drive), the popup message saying 'hey everything just got mega-paused' is now a little clearer about what has happened and how to fix it
    Similarly, the specific 'all watchers are paused'-style messages now specifically state 'network->pause to resume!' to point users to this menu to fix this tricky issue. this has frustrated a couple of newer users before
    To reduce confusion, the 'clear orphan files' pre-job now only presents the user one combined dialog
    Improved how pages test and recognise that they have changes and thus should be saved--it works faster, and a bunch of false negatives should be removed
    Improved the safety routine that ensures multiple-column list data is read-only
    Fixed .txt sidecar importers' description labels, which were missing extra text munging
    To relieve some latency stress on session load, pages that are loading their initial files in the background now do so in batches of 64 rather than 256
    Fixed some bad error handling in the master client db update routine
    Fixed a scatter of linting problems a user found
    Last week's pixiv parser hotfix is reinforced this week for anyone who got the early 532 release
    Made some primitive interfaces for the main controller and schedulable job classes and ensured the main hydrusglobals has type hinting for these--now everything that talks to the controller has a bit of an idea what it is actually doing, and as I continue to work on this, we'll get better linting
    Moved the client DataCache object and its friends to a new 'caches' module and cleaned some of the code

Release Notes


We’ve fixed many bugs, including things such as unsorted language lists, dark and light theme issues, or scrapers that failed to load some details.

Besides the regular bug fixes, some small new features made it into this release as well: A new TV scraper for “fernsehserien.de” has been added. It is a German-only website for TV shows, seasons and episodes.

Most changes were internal: MediaElch now requires CMake 3.15 or later for building. And we no longer depend on QML/QtQuick, meaning the package sizes for macOS and Windows have decreased by a few MiB.

Changelog


    I banged my head against the notes layout code and actually had great success--a variety of borked note-spilling-over-into-nothing and note-stretching-itself-crazy and note-has-fifty-pixels-of-margin issues are fixed. let me know if you still have crazy notes anywhere
    the duplicate filter right-hand hover is now more aggressive about getting out of the way of the notes hover, especially when the notes hover jitter-resizes itself a few extra pixels of height. the notes hover should no longer ever overlap the duplicate filter hover's top buttons--very sorry this took so long
    when you drag and drop thumbnails out of the program while using an automatic pattern to rename them (options->gui), all the filenames are now unique, adding '(x)' after their name as needed for dedupe. previously, on duplicates, it was basically doing a weird spam-merge
    fixed an issue when sanitizing export filenames when the destination directory's file system type cannot be determined
    fixed a bug when doing a search in a deleted file domain with 'file import time' as the file sort
    fixed a bug when hitting the shortcut for 'open file in media viewer' on a non-local file
    fixed a bug when the client wants to figure out view options for a file that has mime 'application/unknown'
    I may have improved the 'woah the db caches are unsynced' error handling in the 'what siblings and parents does this have?' check when you right-click tags

Changelog


    misc:

    thanks to a user, we now have Krita (.kra, .krz) support! it even pulls thumbnails!
    thanks to another user, we now have SVG (.svg) support! it even generates thumbnails!
    I think I fixed a comparison statement calculator divide-by-zero error in the duplicate filter when you compare a file with a resolution with a file without one

    petitions overview:

    this is a workflow/usability update only for server janitors
    tl;dr: the petitions page now fetches many petitions at once. update your servers and clients for it all to work right
    so, the petitions page now fetches lots of petitions with each 'fetch' button click. you can set how many it will fetch with a new number control
    the petitions are shown in a new multi-column list that shows action, account id, reason, and total weight. the actual data for the petitions will load in quickly, reflected in the list. as soon as the first is loaded, it is highlighted, but double-click any to highlight it in the old petition UI as normal
    when you process petitions, the client moves instantly to the next, all fitting into the existing workflow, without having to wait for the server to fetch a new one after you commit
    you can also mass approve/deny from here! if one account is doing great or terrible stuff, you can now blang it all in one go

    petitions details:

    the 'fetch x petition' buttons now show (*) in their label if they are the active petition type being worked on
    petition pages now remember: the last petition type they were looking at; the number of petitions to fetch; and the number of files to show
    the petition page will pause any ongoing petition fetches if you close it, and resume if you unclose it
    a system where multi-mapping petitions would be broken up and delivered in tags with weight-similar chunks (e.g. if would say 'aaa for 11 files' and 'bbb in 15 files' in the same fetch, but not 'ccc in 542,154 files') is abandoned. this was not well explained and was causing confusion and code complexity. these petitions now appear clientside in full
    another system, where multi-mapping petitions would be delivered in same-namespace chunks, is also abandoned, for similar reasons. it was causing more confusion, especially when compared to the newer petition counting tech I've added. perhaps it will come back in as a clientside filter option
    the list of petitions you are given should also be neatly grouped by account id, so rather than randomly sampling from all petitions, you'll get batches by user x, y, or z, and in most cases you'll be looking at everything by user x, and y, and then z up to the limit of num petitions you chose to fetch
    drawback: since petitions' content can overlap in complicated ways, and janitors can work on the same list at the same time, in edge cases the list you see can be slightly out of sync with what the server actually has. this isn't a big deal, and the worst case is wasted work as you approve the same thing twice. I tried to implement 'refresh list if count drops more than expected' tech, but the situation is complicated and it was spamming too much. I will let you refresh the list with a button click yourself for now, as you like, and please let me know where it works and fails
    drawback: I added some new objects, so you have to update both server and client for this to work. older/newer combinations will give you some harmless errors
    also, if your list starts running low, but there are plenty more petitions to work on, it will auto-refresh. again, it won't interrupt your current work, but it will fetch more. let me know how it works out
    drawback: while the new petition summary list is intentionally lightweight, I do spend some extra CPU figuring it out. with a high 'num petitions to fetch', it may take several seconds for a very busy server like the PTR just to fetch the initial list, so please play around with different fetch sizes and let me know what works well and what is way too slow
    there are still some things I want to do to this page, which I want to slip in the near future. I want to hide/show the sort and 'num files to show' widgets as appropriate, figure out a right-click menu for the new list to retry failures, and get some shortcut support going

    boring code cleanup:

    wrote a new petition header object to hold content type, petition status, account id, and reason for petitions
    serverside petition fetching is now split into 'get petition headers' and 'get petition data'. the 'headers' section supports filtering by account id and in future reason
    the clientside petition management UI code pretty much got a full pass
    cleaned a bunch of ancient server db code
    cleaned a bunch of the clientside petition code. it was a real tangle
    improved the resilience of the hydrus server when it is given unacceptable tags in a content update
    all fetches of multiple rows of data from multi-column lists now happen sorted. this is just a little thing, but it'll probably dejank a few operations where you edit several things at once or get some errors and are trying to figure out which of five things caused it
    the hydrus official mimetype for psd files is now 'image/vnd.adobe.photoshop' (instead of 'application/x-photoshop')
    with krita file (which are actually just zip files) support, we now have the very barebones of archive tech started. I'll expand it a bit more and we should be able to improve support for other archive-like formats in the future

Changelog


    More new filetypes

    Thanks to a user, we have XCF and gzip filetype support!
    I rejiggered the new SVG support so there is a firmer server/client split. the new tech needs Qt, which broke the headless Docker server last week at the last minute--now the server has some sensible stubs that safely revert to the default svg thumb and give unknown resolution, and the client patches in full support dynamically
    The new SVG code now supports the 'scale to fill' thumbnail option

    Misc

    I fixed the issue that was causing tags to stay in the tag autocomplete lookup despite going to 0 count. it should not happen for new cases, and on update, a database routine will run to remove all your existing orphans. if you have ever synced with the PTR, it will take several minutes to run!
    Sending the command to set a file as the best in its duplicate group now presents a yes/no dialog to confirm
    Hitting the shortcut for 'set the focused file as better than the other(s)' when you only have one file now asks if you just want to set that file as the best of its group
    Fixed an erroneous 'cannot show the best quality file of this file's group here' label in the file relationships menu--a count was off
    Fixed the 'set up a hydrus.desktop file' setup script to point to the new hydrus_client.sh startup script name
    Thanks to a user, a situation where certain unhandled URLs that deliver JSON were parsing as mpegs by ffmpeg and causing a weird loop is now caught and stopped. more investigation is needed to fix it properly

    Boring stuff

    When a problem or file maintenance job causes a new file maintenance job to be queued (e.g. if the client in a metadata scan discovers the resolution of a file was not as expected, let's say it now recognises EXIF rotation, and starts a secondary thumbnail regen job), it now wakes the file maintenance manager immediately, which should help clear out and update for these jobs quickly when you are looking at the problem thumbnails
    If you have an image type set to show as an 'open externally' button in the media viewer, then it is now no longer prefetched in the rendering system!
    I added a very simple .editorconfig file for the project. since we have a variety of weird files in the directory tree, I've made it cautious and python-specific to start with. we'll expand as needed
    I moved the similar files search tree and maintenance tracker from client.caches.db to client.db. while the former table is regeneratable, it isn't a cache or precomputation store, per se, so I finally agreed to move it to the main db. if you have a giganto database, it may take an extra minute to update
    Added a 'requirements_server.txt' to the advanced requirements.txts directory, just for future reference, and trimmed the Server Dockerfile down to reflect it

    Client api

    Thanks to a user, fixed a really stupid typo in the Client API when sending the 'file_id' parameter to set the file
    Wrote unit tests for file_id and file_ids parameters to stop this sort mistake in future
    If you attempt to delete a file over the Client API when one of the given files is delete-locked (this is an advanced option that stops deletion of any archived file), the request now returns a 409 Conflict response, saying which hashes were bad, and does not delete anything
    Wrote a unit test to catch the new delete lock test
    Deleted the old-and-deprecated-in-one-week 'pair_rows' parameter-handling code in the set_file_relationships command
    The client api version is now 49

    new filetype selector:

    I rewrote the expanding checkbox list that selects filetypes in 'system:filetype' and File Import Options into a more normal tree view with checkboxes. it is more compact and scrolls neatly, letting us stack it with all these new filetypes we've been adding and more in future. the 'clicking a category selects all children' logic is preserved
    I re-ordered the actual filetypes in each sublist here. I tried to put the most common filetypes at the top and listed the rest in alphabetical order below, going for the best of both worlds. you don't want to scroll down to find webm, but you don't want to hunt through a giant hydev-written 'popularity' list to find realmedia either. let's see how it works out
    I split all the archive types away from 'applications' into a new 'archives' group
    and I did the same for the 'image project files' like krita and xcf. svg and psd may be significantly more renderable soon, so this category may get further shake-up
    this leaves 'applications' as just flash and pdf for now
    it isn't a big deal, but these new groups are reflected in options->media too
    all file import options and filetype system predicates that previously said 'all applications' should now say 'all applications, image project files, or archives'

    fast database delete:

    I have long planned a fix for 'the PTR takes ages to delete' problem. today marks the first step in this
    deleting a huge service like the PTR and deleting/resetting/regeneratting a variety of other large data stores are now essentially instant. the old tables are not deleted instantly, but renamed and moved to a deferred delete zone
    the maintenance task that actually does the deferred background delete is not yet ready, so for now these jobs sit in the landing zone taking up their original hard disk space. I expect to have it done for next week, so bear with me if you need to delete a lot this week
    as this system gets fleshed out, the new UI under database>db maintenance->review deferred delete table data will finish up too

    misc:

    fixed a bitrot issue in the v534 update code related to the file maintenance manager not existing at the time of db update. if you got the 'some exif scanning failed to schedule!' popup on update, don't worry about it. everything actually worked ok, it was just a final unimportant reporting step that failed (issue #1414)
    fixed the grid layout on 'migrate tags', which at some point in the recent past went completely bananas
    tightened up some of the code that calculates and schedules deferred physical file delete. it now catches a couple of cases it wasn't and skips some work it should've
    reduced some overhead in the hover window show/hide logic. in very-heavy-session clients, this was causing significant (7ms multiple times a second) lag
    when you ok the 'manage login scripts' dialog, it no longer re-links new entries for all those scripts into the 'manage logins' system. this now only happens once on database initialisation
    the manage login scripts test routine no longer spams test errors to popup dialogs. they are still written to log if you need more data
    silenced a bit of PIL warning logspam when a file with unusual or broken EXIF data is loaded
    silenced the long time logspam that oftens happens when generating flash thumbnails
    fixed a stupid typo error in the routine that schedules downloading files from file repositories
    nose, six, and zope are no longer in any of the requirements.txts. I think these were needed a million years ago as PyInstaller hacks, but the situation is much better these days

    Important note on index regeneration

    if you get a note on update about missing indices that need to be regenerated, don't panic! everything is fine, nothing to worry about, let it do its work
    New libraries today
    if you run from source, I recommend you rebuild your venv today. the setup script points at new versions of Qt, OpenCV, and a HEIF module that adds new filetype support

    New Qt and OpenCV

    all release builds and normal source installations move up to PySide6 (Qt) 6.5.2 today. we've done a good bit of testing in different situations, and it seems to be a good and reliable upgrade from 6.4.1, which has given us a mix of annoying trouble at times, like mismatched UI scaling and mpv-related flickering
    let me know if you have any trouble with the overall feel of the program, particularly if you are running on an older or un-updated version of your OS
    the last version of Qt that was generally without caveats was 6.3.1. if you do have trouble with today's release (I suspect old and un-updated OSes, or source users on older Python), one option is to move to running from source and using this older version, which I have updated my setup_venv scripts to offer as a stable 'Qt6 (o)lder' option
    similarly, we are moving from OpenCV (an image library) 4.5.5.64 to 4.7.0.72. we've tested this in several rounds of future-builds and had no reports of trouble, and this also improves some build compatibility with FFMPEG 5.0 (issue #1419)
    the 'test' version of Qt stays at 6.5.2 for now, since this is the latest version
    the 'old' OpenCV compatability version remains at 4.5.3.56, the new 'test' version is now 4.8.0.74

    Deferred delete system

    the first full version of the deferred delete system is complete. your no-longer-needed tables lying around after a big operation like a PTR delete/reset will now be shrunk in the background until they are small enough to delete in trivial time
    the menu entry under database->database maintenance has a new submenu for the job and 'work in idle/normal' time checkboxes just like file maintenance
    the new review window UI is now fleshed out. it can refresh itself, and automitically does so on changes, and the 'work hard' button functions
    I discovered a bug in last week's code that stopped some indices from being recreated in certain regeneration jobs. if you did a 'regenerate tag text search cache' or similar operation last week, you'll encounter the above 'need to regen some indices' note. no worries, it'll all fix itself, and, if you noticed any slowdown, the affected system should work at the proper speed again

    User contributions

    thanks to a user, we now have full support for HEIF, HEIC, and AVIF image files. they will import and render just like any other image. furthermore, we have support for HEIF, HEIC, and AVIF 'sequences', which are basically like an animated gif or apng and are under the 'animations' filetype category (and they seem to play in mpv great! although I don't have an example HEIC sequence to test with, lol). all users who use the normal build will get this on update--anyone running from source will want to rebuild their venv this week to get the functionality. you can double-check help->about to see if you have the required 'pillow-heif' library
    thanks to a user, the various help links in the program now redirect to the online help (and/or direct to a guide to build the local help) if the local help is missing (fixes #1360)
    thanks to a user, an addititonal final network transfer size check is now in place. if a server says it will deliver x bytes and actually delivers y, the job now raises an error. this can happen with various twitter solutions, where vid downloads will sometimes stealth-stop-working, leaving a valid but truncated mp4. fingers crossed this will now catch that situation and trigger a re-attempt
    thanks to a user, fixed TIFF files not showing EXIF correctly. just to be safe, all tiffs will be scheduled for a 'has EXIF?' rescan on update, and I silenced another bit of tiff-related PIL warning-logspam
    mkv files with AV1 video (and no/worbis/opus audio) are now correctly identified as webms. all mkvs will be scheduled for a metadata rescan on update

    Misc

    when transferring mappings, tags->migrate tags now supports a full location context file filter (like the file domain button you see in an autocomplete). previously it was just a list of single locations to pick from, but now, if you want to grab tags for all files deleted from x, or all files in either y or z, it is simple to set up. relatedly, the 'multiple/deleted' dialog picker launched from that menu now sizes itself to try and fit all its stuff in, rather than always being scrolled
    fixed a bug that meant you could ok the 'edit predicate' dialog despite the regex string being invalid when editing an existing 'system:known url=(regex)' predicate. the 'check valid' test is now caught correctly and cancels dialog ok, rather than escalating to the popup message catcher
    fixed a bug in table analyze code that was causing empty tables to be unintentionally re-analysed over good existing data
    a file_system_type-checking call that is used in file-export is now cached. previously it was hit for every pending file path to be calculated, and on systems with a 50ms response time to this call (I presume because of NAS/RAID-style gubbins), it meant opening the file export window could take minutes (issue #1413)
    APNG metadata parsing no longer requires FFMPEG, greatly accelerating their import
    I think I fixed the root cause of a weird bug we encountered and hacked around a couple weeks ago, where if a certain sort of downloaded page produced nothing via its parser, and it was detected initially as actually a valid file to import, but then that file import failed (e.g. ffmpeg went full bananas and thought a json file was an mp4), the import attempt would loop. the error handling now catches the unusual import failure gracefully, and the import object should be set to 'skipped' appropriately
    fixed a harmless but annoying desync error popup that sometimes occurs when deleting a repository service

    Misc boring notes

    to deal with the deferred delete system clashing with SQLite not allowing index renames, I moved the database index testing and creation system to a dynamic name format. it works but is a little hacky, so maybe we'll move to direct sqlite_master interrogation in future
    unfortunately, the table shrink method I had planned to employ was not feasible (I wanted to do 'delete n rows', but it turns out that isn't compiled by default in all normal SQLite releases wew). I then experimented with several other strategies and settled on the KISS of 'select n, delete these n' in two queries, which worked out far better than my cleverer attempts anyway. the thing doesn't use much CPU time, and it cautiously autothrottles itself, and I've tested it in a bunch of situations, and I'm super happy with the performance, but if you do happen to get noticeable bumps of lag, most likely in PTR removal when the current_mappings giga-table is shrunk, turn off all database maintenance under the menu, for both idle and normal time, and let me know, and we'll figure it out
    refactored APNG parsing code to the new 'HydrusAnimationHandling.py' and took out the ffmpeg code. now OpenCV/PIL figures out the resolution

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

    fixed the 'network timeout' setting under options->connection, which was not saving changes
    the media viewer top hover window now enables/disables the 'show file metadata' button--rather than shows/hides--in order to stop the buttons on the left jumping around so much when you scroll through media
    the duplicate filter's always-on-top right-hand window is fixed in place again. the buttons won't jump around any more. if the notes hover grows to overlap it, it won't show over it as long as your mouse is over the duplicate hover. this should make clicking those duplicate buttons on note-heavy files far less frustrating. sorry for the late fix here!
    the duplicate filter now always presents a statement on the pair's filetypes, even if they are the same (it'll say like 'both are pngs'). this is to help catch the upcoming PSD matches (where you probably do not want to delete either) and other weirdness as we add new filetypes
    just a small thing, but the 'management panel' labels are renamed broadly to 'sidebar' under the pages menu. the panel on the left of pages is now called 'sidebar', and the wx-era 'sash' wording is gone
    there's an issue with the file metadata reparse system right now where, on a filetype change, it will often fail to cleanly rename bigger files (e.g. from x.mkv to x.webm). the result is the file copies and the old one is never deleted, leaving a duplicate that is not properly cleared up later. on update this week, I am scheduling a fresh cleanup for these dupes. if, like me, you have a lot of large AV1-encoded vidya capture mkvs, you may have noticed your hydrus folders suddenly bloated in size this past week--this should be 99% fixed soon. I will fix the underlying issue here next week
    touched up the 'running from source' help and 'setup_venv' texts in general and specifically regarding some new version info stuff. it looks like macOS <= 10.15 can't handle last week's new Qt6 version, and some versions of Linux need libicu-dev and libxcb-cursor-dev installed via apt or otherwise
    fixed the file query sort-and-clip method when you are set to sort by file hash and also have system:limit, and fixed it for asc/desc too
    for the second time, fixed the 'import QtSVG' error on hydrus server install when the client requirements.txt had not been run. turns out I messed up the 'proper' fix I did for the first time

- Filter dialog will keep the selected field and operator when adding entries.
- Extended the image formats supported by Data Crow, including webp.
- Online search will now store images to the temporary folder instead of keeping the images completely in memory.
- Related items are now shown in the quick view as well

[Fixed]

- Incorrect alignment of the filter label on the related items tab.
- Update all dialog; could not create new reference using the icon for the reference / references field.
- Create multiple items dialog; sometimes, for custom modules, no fields are displayed. Now, all enabled and editable fields are displayed.
- Item form settings; sometimes it does not show any fields available for assignment.
- UI scaling session can get lost when switching between user folders.
- Filter dialog shows value field for is filled / is empty operator when switching between fields.
- OpenLibrary search: edition data mix up (sometimes) causing incorrect results
- OpenLibrary search: language not imported when searching on ISBN
- OpenLibrary search: ISBN10 and ISBN13 should always be filled but are sometimes blank
- Several (potential and very real) memory leaks have been fixed
- When server and client run in different languages issues could occur with the data filters
- Missing Line Breaks in Quick View Pane
- Client - Server: on saving an item where there are data issues, such an item not being unique, the item form is closed instead of kept open
- Client - Server: update all dialog won't open
- Image importer parses incorrect resolution for image
- File browser: file type description too long for field (too many extension / file types supported). Abbreviated the filter description.
- Table view: tracks are not shown for music albums
- Templates: sometimes template could not be selected when creating an item
- Templates: not checked if template name is filled
- Image preview did not work for all image types - it now shows previews for all supported image types (webp, jpeg, etc.)
- Restore closes the application after successful finish without any message
- The file import task bar is incorrect when going over 100 files
- Templates cannot be edited in the server edition

Changelog


    misc:

    the system predicate parser can now handle 'system:filetype is xxx' for more of the general human-friendly filetype strings like 'video' and 'mkv'. it can also handle 'static gif' and any other types with spaces but now enforces commas between each filetype. I think all system:filetype predicate strings the client produces now parse correctly if you paste them back
    fixed many bitmap imports, most typically in the 'system:similar files' system, which was not generating pixel hashes correctly. most/all bitmaps coming in with alpha channels, or, I also believe, with a null channel (RGB32), were being handled wrong and coming out BGR. perceptual hashes are greyscale and were not affected, but pixel hashes were wrong. this was a real pain to figure out, and it may be that it is still broken for users on big-endian systems or something, so let me know how you get on
    added links to https://github.com/abtalerico/wd-hydrus-tagger (danbooru-trained model tagging) and https://github.com/Garbevoir/wd-e621-hydrus-tagger (which adds more models) to the client api help. reports are that they work well, even on 'normal' pictures
    the bad darkmode tooltip text colour in the new Qt 6.5.2 on Windows appears to be a bug, here: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-116021 . there's not a great answer here, so let me know your thoughts. if you like, you can edit a custom stylesheet with a different QToolTip background-color, or I can spam some alternate fixed QSS files for everyone, or we can wait for a fix on Qt's end
    on update, all existing PSD and static gif files will be scheduled for pixel hash regen, perceptual hash regen, and entry into the similar files system (I forgot to do this last week)
    on update, all existing PNGs will be scheduled for pixel duplicate data regen. we have a legacy alpha channel issue here that has reared its head several times (searchting for 'must not be pixel dupes', but getting pixel dupes), so I am just going to bosh it on the head for everyone

    file maintenance:

    if a file has multiple jobs pending, the file maintenance manager now processes all those jobs at once, saving significant disk I/O. also, a couple things like the 'do all work' button's popup now shows the total number of jobs to do, rather than that of each job type in turn
    the 'manage scheduled jobs' file maintenance panel now shows the count for jobs that exist but are not yet due. previously, these were hidden, which was part of the mkv/webm duplicate difficulties last week.
    when the program needs to rename a file because it has a new mime, it now first tests if the file is still in use (normally this means some file parsing component like ffmpeg or opencv is still cleaning up OS file handles or whatever), and, if so, waits just a little bit before trying
    relatedly, the 'try and delete the rename-dupe again' job now tries again in one hour, rather than one week in the future, and if that after-one-hour job fails again (this would usually be because you were actually viewing the original file in the media viewer at the time of its reparse), then that job will retry again in a week, and the week after if that fails, and again after that, etc... for about a year
    fixed an issue with the thumbnail resizing maintenance job on PSD files and probably some other weird types too
    fixed some scheduling issues in how the mainloop of the file maintenance system tests its current rate of work and when it should cancel a current batch of work

    boring stuff:

    simplified and cleaned up some of the duplicate system king-fetching code. I may have also fixed one instance of pair representatives being fetched wrong for the filter when 'at least one file has to match the one search'
    when editing the duplicate action merge options, a new label at the top says which dupe action you are editing for, and if it isn't "this is better", it notes that the available merge actions are limited
    improved four things with the recovery code that handles missing master hash definitions--first, the substitute hashes are now the correct length; second, they are now saved back to the database, which should stop issues like the "trying to delete a thing that doesn't exist and has an ever-changing name in a loop forever" bug; third, the popup tells the user what to do next, and more information is written to the log; and fourth, the client checks the local hash cache so see if it can automatically recover the missing data

    client api:

    the file_metadata call now has two new fields, filetype_human, which looks like 'jpeg' or 'webm', and filetype_enum, which uses internal hydrus filetype numbers
    the help and unit tests are updated for this
    client api version is now 50

Manage large media collections and re-organize them using tags instead of folders that you can share via custom servers with this application.

The Unlicense

Changelog


    misc:

    fixed the gallery downloader and thread watcher loading with the 'clear highlight' button enabled despite there being nothing currently highlighted
    to fix the darkmode tooltips on the new Qt 6.5.2 on Windows (the text is stuck on a dark grey, which is unreadable in darkmodes), all the default darkmode styles now have an 'alternate-tooltip-colour' variant, which swaps out the tooltip background colour for the much brighter normal widget text colour
    rewrote the apng parser to work much faster on large files. someone encountered a 200MB giga apng that locked up the client for minutes. now it takes a second or two (unfortunately it looks like that huge apng breaks mpv, but there we go)
    the 'media' options page has two new checkboxes--'hide uninteresting import/modified times'--which allow you to turn off the media viewer behaivour where import and modified times similar to the 'added to my files xxx days ago' are hidden
    reworked the layout of the 'media' options page. everything is in sections now and re-ordered a bit
    the 'other file is a pixel-for-pixel duplicate png!' statements will now only show if the complement is a jpeg, gif, or webp. this statement isn't so appropriate for formats like PSD
    a variety of tricky tags like :>= are now searchable in normal autocomplete lookup. a test that determined whether to use a slower but more capable search was misfiring
    the client api key editing window has a new 'check all permissions' button
    fixed the updates I made last week to the missing-master-file-id recovery system. I made a stupid typo and didn't test it properly, fixed now. sorry for the trouble!
    thanks to a user, the help has a bunch of updated screenshots and fixed references to old concepts
    did a little more reformatting and cleanup of 'getting started with downloading' help document and added a short section on note import options
    cleaned up some of the syntax in our various batch files. fingers crossed, the setup_venv.bat script will absolutely retain the trailing space after its questions now, no matter what whitespace my IDE and github want to trim

    string joiner:

    the parsing system has a new String Processor object--the 'String Joiner'. this is a simple concatenator that takes the list of strings and joins them together. it has two variables: what joining text to use, e.g. ', ', or '-', or empty string '' for simple concatenation; and an optional 'group size', which lets you join every two or three or n strings in 1-2-3, 1-2-3, 1-2-3 style patterns

    new file types:

    thanks to a user; we now have support for QOI (a png-like lossless image type) and procreate (Apple image project file) files. the former has full support; the latter has thumbnails
    QOI needs Pillow 9.5 at least, so if you are on a super old 'running from source' version, try rebuilding your venv; or cope with you QOI-lessness

    client api:

    thanks to a user, we now have /add_tags/get_siblings_and_parents, which, given a set of tags, shows their sibling and parent display rules for each service
    I wrote some help and unit tests for this
    client api version is now 51

    file storage (mostly boring):

    the file storage system is creaky and ugly to use. I have prepped some longer-term upgrades, mostly by writing new tools and cleaning and reworking existing code. I am nowhere near to done, but I'd like us to have four new features in the nearish future:
    dynamic-length subfolders (where instead of a fixed set of 256 x00-xff folders, we can bump up to 4096 x000-xfff, and beyond, based on total number of files)
    setting fixed space limits on particular database locations (e.g. 'no more than 200GB of files here') to complement the current weight system
    permitting multiple valid locations for a particular subfolder prefix
    slow per-file background migration between valid subfolders, rather than the giganto folder-atomic program-blocking 'move files now' button in database maintenance

    so, it is pretty boring so far, but I did the following:

    wrote a new class to handle a specific file storage subfolder and spammed it everywhere, replacing previous location and prefix juggling
    wrote some new tools to scan and check the coverage of multiple locations and dynamic-length subfolders
    rewrote the file location database initialisation, storage, testing, updating, and repair to support multiple valid locations
    updated the database to hold 'max num bytes' per file storage location
    the feature to migrate the SQLite database files and then restart is removed from the 'migrate database' dialog. it was always ultrajank in a place that really shouldn't be, and it was completely user-unfriendly. just move things manually, while the client is closed
    the old 'recover and merge surplus database locations into the correct position' side feature in 'move files now' is removed. it was always a little jank, was very rarely actually helpful, and had zero reporting. it will return in the new system as a better one-shot maintenance job
    touched up the migrated database help a little

Whats new:>>

    Thanks to a user, we now have pdf thumbnails! there is surprisingly little jank!
    I hacked together a newer and better word count for PDFs. I can't promise it is perfect, but it does actually inspect the raw text. I'm expect we'll add a separate 'num_pages' row in future to handle comics (and other stuff like cbr/cbz)
    I also hacked in 'human-readable file metadata' for PDFs. any PDF with author, title, subject, or keywords metadata is now viewable at the top of the media viewer
    On update all your existing pdfs will be scheduled to get new thumbs, count their words, and learn if they have human-readable file metadata
    This tech relies on Qt, so users running from source on old OSes (and thus Qt5) may not have very good support, sorry!

Changelog


    misc:

    a new string converter rule now allows for extremely easy date parsing, thanks to the dateparser library. all old 'datestring to timestamp' rules remain as they are, but are now called '(advanced)'. a new option, 'datestring to timestamp (easy)', which has exactly zero variables to fiddle with, just eats up pretty much any date string you can think of, including timezone conversions, and even stuff like '2 hours ago'. you need the dateparser library for this to work, so if you run from source, you might like to rebuild your venv this week. your dateparser import status is in help->about
    thanks to the user who added it recently, PSD rendering is now much faster and uses less memory. if you do a lot of PSD work, let me know how this goes. if PSDs now load pretty much like large pngs, I think we'll set them, by default, to show as normal in the preview viewer
    thanks to a user, we now have description note parsing for the default e621 downloader
    the program now supports bitmap files as-is. until now, I automatically converted them to png on import, but this was a mistake--despite this file format being a waste 99.7% of the time, hydrus's philosophy is not to alter files on import, and this long-time exception resulted in several awkward bumps in the code that I'm happy to be rid of now
    fixed a couple desync bugs in the migrate database dialog where you could change a location's weight (particularly between 0 and 1) and not get the correct flip of the 'files need to be moved'/'files are all good' state until you re-opened the dialog

    PDFs:

    I screwed something up with the PDF thumbnail generation at the last minute last week, fixing it on non-PySide6, but introducing some logspam and--for at least one user--adding instability. the logspam is now gone and I believe the instability is fixed. now it is basically the same as the SVG thumbnail code, which hasn't given us any trouble. if we still see some crashes, I'm going to have to overhaul these two thumbnail generation methods
    when PDFs fail to generate thumbs, a little text about the error is now printed to the log
    help->about now has lines for QtCharts and QtPdf, and if there is a PDF problem, it puts the import trace in a popup

    mr bones:

    mr bones can now take any file search. if you want to see the average filesize of your pngs, or the archive/inbox ratio of creator x's webms, just set that search on the new panel and the numbers will update for that subset
    this turned, characteristically, into a bottomless rabbit hole, and I culled the more complicated features lest the ride consume me. searching a multiple file domain means deleted numbers cannot be calculated, nor can the 'earliest import' time, and searching deleted domains will generally give you some gonk numbers (and likely reveal some interesting legacy bugs, like inbox count amongst deleted files)
    the old search was highly optimised, but this has few guard rails. if you give this thing a super difficult query, it'll take a long time. there is now a cancel button that should interrupt all but the weirdest operations fairly promptly, however, just in case it is really lagging. note that hitting 'searching immediately' will pause updates as normal, if you need to set up something complex
    assuming deleted numbers are available, the stats now include total views/viewtime for deleted files too
    potential dupe counts are basically a search of 'at least one of the files matches the file list, can be pixel dupes, max distance 8'

    more boring work, file storage and misc:

    wrote a new object to handle the base storage location for file/thumbnail subfolders. it can do over/underweight calculations and handles the pending max_num_bytes setting for database migration locations
    all the new subfolder objects now track their base location using this new object, and all related load/save/display/edit code is now throwing this thing around instead of raw paths
    the underlying migration determination code is now ready to redistribute according to a max_num_bytes option. I've just got to update the UI, and, fingers crossed, I'll be able to add it next week
    added a bunch of unit tests for the new base storage location object. it separately reports whether it needs to shrink, wants to shrink, is able to expand, or is eager to expand
    improved how updated objects are substituted into all multi-column lists, it fixes a couple of odd storage/display sync bugs here and there
    a core image data loading/conversion tool inside the program is now a bit simpler and faster, and I think it also saves memory. it should speed up various sorts of unusual file loading

    webp vulnerability:

    the main webp library (libwebp) that many programs use for webp support had a remote execution (very bad) vulnerability. you probably noticed your chrome/firefox updated this week, which was fixing this. we use the same thing via the Pillow library, which also rolled out a fix. I'm not sure how vulnerable hydrus ever was, since we are usually jank about how we do anything, but best to be safe about these things. there were apparently exploits for this floating around
    the builds today have the fix, so if you use them, update as normal and you are good
    if you run from source, rebuild your venv at your earliest convenience, and you'll get the new version of Pillow and be good. note, if you use the advanced setup, that there is a new question about Pillow
    unfortunately, Windows 7 users (or anyone else running from source on Python 3.7) cannot get the fix! it needs Pillow 10.0.1, which is >=Python 3.8. it seems many large programs are dropping support for Win 7 this year, so while I will continue to support it for a reasonable while longer, I think the train may be running out of track bros

    max size in file storage system:

    the migrate database dialog now allows you to set a 'max size' for all but one of your media locations. if you have a 500GB drive you want to store some stuff on, you no longer have to balance the weights in your head--just set a max size of 450GB and hydrus will figure it out for you. it is not super precise (and it isn't healthy to fill drives up to 98% anyway), so make sure you leave some padding
    also, please note that this will not automatically rebalance yet. right now, the only way files move between locations is through the 'move files now' button on the dialog, so if you have a location that is full up according to its max size rule and then spend a month importing many files, it will go over its limit until and unless you revisit 'migrate database' and move files again. I hope to have automatic background rebalancing in the near future
    updated the 'database migration' help to talk about this and added a new migration example
    the 'edit num bytes' widget now supports terabytes (TB)
    I fleshed out the logic and fixed several bugs in the migration code, mostly to do with the new max size stuff and distributing weights appropriately in various situations

    misc:

    when an image file fails to render in the media viewer, it now draws a bordered box with a brief 'failed to render' note. previously, it janked with a second of lag, made some popups, and left the display on eternal blank hang. now it finishes its job cleanly and returns a 'nah m8' 'image' result
    I reworked the Mr Bones layout a bit. the search is now on the left, and the rows of the main count table are separated for readability
    it turns out that bitmap (.bmp) files can support ICC Profiles, so I've told hydrus to look for them in new bitmaps and retroactively scan all your existing ones
    fixed an issue with the recent PSD code updates that was breaking boot for clients running from source without the psd-tools library (this affected the Docker build)
    updated all the 'setup_venv' scripts. all the formatting and text has had a pass, and there is now a question on (n)ew or (old) Pillow
    to stop FFMPEG's false positives where it can think a txt file is an mpeg, the main hydrus filetype scanning routine will no longer send files with common text extensions to ffmpeg. if you do have an mp3 called music.txt, rename it before import!
    thanks to a user, the inkbunny file page parser fetches the correct source time again (#1431)
    thanks to a user, the old sankaku gallery parser can find the 'next page' again
    removed the broken sankaku login script for new users. I recommend people move to Hydrus Companion for all tricky login situations (#1435)
    thanks to a user, procreate file parsing, which had the width/height flipped, is fixed. all existing procreate files will regen their metadata and thumbs

    client api:

    thanks to a user, the Client API now has a /get_files/render command, which gives you a 100% zoom png render of the given file. useful if you want to display a PSD on a web page!
    I screwed up Mr Bones's Client API request last week. this is now fixed
    Mr Bones now supports a full file search context on the Client API, just like the main UI now. same parameters as /get_files/search_files, the help talks about it. He also cancels his work early if the request is terminated
    Mr Bones gets several new unit tests to guarantee long-term ride reliability
    the Client API (and all hydrus servers) now return proper JSON on an error. there's the error summary, specific exception name, and http status code. the big bad 500-error-of-last-resort still tacks on the large serverside traceback to the summary, so we'll see if that is still annoying and split it off if needed
    the new /add_tags/get_siblings_and_parents now properly cleans the tags you give it, trimming whitespace and lowercasing letters and so on
    the client api version is now 52

Changelog


    Blurhash:

    Thanks to a user's work, hydrus now calculates the blurhash of files with a thumbnail! (issue #394)
    If a file has no thumbnail but does have a blurhash (e.g. missing files, or files you previously deleted and are looking at in a clever view), it now presents a thumbnail generated from that blurhash
    All existing thumbnail-having files are scheduled for a blurhash calculation (this is a new job in the file maintenance system). if you have hundreds of thousands of files, expect it to take a couple of weeks/months to clear. if you need to hurry this along, the queue is under database->file maintenance
    Any time a file's thumbnail changes, the blurhash is scheduled for a regen
    For this first version, the blurhash is very small and simple, either 15 or 16 cells for ~34 bytes. if we end up using it a lot somewhere, I'd be open to making a size setting so you can set 8x8 or higher grids for actually decent blur-thumbs
    A new help->debug report mode switches to blurhashes instead of normal thumbs
    File history search:
    I did to the file history chart (help->view file history) what I did to mr bones a couple weeks ago. you can now search your history of imports, archives, and deletes for creator x, filetype y, or any other search you can think of
    I hacked this all together right at the end of my week, so please bear with me if there are bugs or dumb permitted domains/results. the default action when you first open it up should all work the same way as before, no worries™, but let me know how you get on and I'll fix it!
    There's more to do here. we'll want a hideable search panel, a widget to control the resolution of the chart (currently fixed at 7680 to look good blown up on a 4k), and it'd be nice to have a selectable date range
    In the longer term future, it'd be nice to have more lines of data and that chart tech you see on financial sites where it shows you the current value where your mouse is

    Client api:

    The file_metadata call now says the new blurhash. if you pipe it into a blurhash library and blow it up to an appopriate ratio canvas, it should just work. the typical use is as a placeholder while you wait for thumbs/files to download
    A new include_blurhash parameter will include the blurhash when only_return_basic_information is true
    File_metadata also shows the file's pixel_hash now. the algorithm here is proprietary to hydrus, but you can throw it into 'system:similar files' to find pixel dupes. I expect to add perceptual hashes too
    The help is updated to talk about this
    I updated the unit tests to deal with this
    The error when the api fails to parse the client api header is now a properly handled 400 (previously it was falling to the 500 backstop)
    The client api version is now 53

    Misc:

    I'm sorry to say I'm removing the Deviant Art artist search and login script for all new users, since they are both broken. DA have been killing their nice old API in pieces, and they finally took down the old artist gallery fetch. :(. there may be a way to finagle-parse their new phone-friendly, live-loading, cloud-deployed engine, but when I look at it, it seems like a much bigger mess than hydrus's parsing system can happily handle atm. the 'correct' way to programatically parse DA is through their new OAuth API, which we simply do not support. individual page URLs seem to still work, but I expect them to go soon too. Sorry folks, try gallery-dl for now--they have a robust OAuth solution
    Thanks to a user, we now have 'epub' ebook support! no 'num_words' support yet, but it looks like epubs are really just zips with some weird metadata files and a bunch of html inside, so I think this'll be doable with a future hacky parser. all your existing zip files wil be scheduled for a metadata rescan to see if they are actually epubs (this'll capture any secret kritas and procreates, too, I think)
    The main UI-level media object is now aware of a file's pixel hash. this is now used in the duplicate filter's 'these are pixel duplicates' statements to save CPU. the jank old on-the-fly calculation code is all removed now, and if these values are missing from the media object, a message will now be shown saying the pixel dupe status could not be determined. we have had multiple rounds of regen over the past year and thus almost all clients have full database data here, so fingers crossed we won't see this error state much if at all, but let me know if you do and I'll figure out a button to accelerate the fix
    The thumbnail right-click->open->similar files menu now has an entry for 'open the selection in a new duplicate filter page', letting you quickly resolve the duplicates that involve the selected files
    Pixel hash and blurhash are now listed, with the actual hash value, in the share->copy->hash thumbnail right-click menu
    Thanks to a user, 'MPO' jpegs (some weird multi-picture jpeg that we can't page through yet) now parse their EXIF correctly and should rotate on a metadata-reparse. since these are rare, I'm not going to schedule a rescan over everyone's jpegs, but if you see a jpeg that is rotated wrong, try hitting manage->regenerate->file metadata on its thumbnail menu
    I may have fixed a rare hang when highlighting a downloader/watcher during very busy network time that involves that includes that importer
    Added a warning to the 'getting started with installing' and 'database migration' help about running the SQLite database off a compressed filesystem--don't do it!
    Fixed thumbnail generation for greyspace PSDs (and perhaps some others)

    Boring cleanup:

    I cleaned some code and added some tests around the new blurhash tech and thumbs in general
    A variety of metadata changes such as 'has exif', 'has icc profile' now trigger a live update on thumbnails currently loaded into the UI
    Cleaned up some old file metadata loading code
    Re-sorted the job list dropdown in the file maintenance dialog
    Some file maintenance database work should be a bit faster
    Fixed some behind the scenes stuff when the file history chart has no file info to show

    misc:

    fixed the recent messed up colours in PSD thumbnail generation. I enthusiastically 'fixed' a problem with greyscale PSD thumbs at the last minute last week and accidentally swapped the RGB colour channels on coloured ones. I changed the badly named method that caused this mixup, and all existing PSD thumbs will be regenerated (issue #1448)
    fixed up some borked button-enabling and status-displaying logic in the file history chart. the cancel process should work properly on repeat now
    made two logical fixes to the archive count in the new file history chart when you have a specific search--archive times for files you deleted are now included properly, and files that are not eligible for archiving are discluded from the initial count. this should make the inbox and archive lines, which were often way too high during specific searches, a little better behaved. let me know what you see!
    added a checkbox to options->thumbnails to turn off the new blurhash thumbnail fallback
    'this has exif data, the other does not' statements are now calculated from cached knowledge--loading pairs in the duplicate filter should be faster now
    some larger image files with clever metadata should import just a little faster now
    if the process isn't explicitly frozen into an executable or a macOS App, it is now considered 'running from source'. various unusual 'running from source' modes (e.g. booting from various scripts that mess with argv) should now be recognised better

    boring code cleanup:

    moved 'recent tags' code to a new client db module
    moved ratings code to a new client db module
    moved some db integrity checking code to the db maintenance module
    moved the orphan table checking code to the db maintenance module
    fixed the orphan table checking code, which was under-detecting orphan tables
    moved some final references to sibling/parent tables from main db method to sibling and parent modules
    moved most of the image metadata functions (exif, icc profile, human-readable, subsampling, quantization quality estimate) to a new HydrusImageMetadata file
    moved the new blurhash methods to a new HydrusBlurhash file
    moved various normalisation routines to a new HydrusImageNormalisation file
    moved various channel scanning and adjusting code to a new HydrusImageColours file
    moved the hydrus image files to the new 'hydrus.core.images' module
    cleaned up some image loading code
    deleted ancient and no-longer-used client db code regarding imageboard definitions, status texts, and more
    removed the ancient OPENCV_OK fallback code, which was only used, superfluously, in a couple of final places. OpenCV is not optional to run hydrus, server or client

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

    mpv crash fixes:

    tl;dr: mpv less crashy now
    if mpv fails to load a file but not in an outright 'error' manner (this appears to mean a file using a rare format that a submodule of mpv can't handle), the client now recognises this has happened, either right after the first load, or, if the error takes longer to occur, a subsequent status interrogation, and makes several new steps to restore program stability: disconnecting the mpv window from all commands, freezing the scanbar, loading the default hydrus.png as emergency backstop, and making a popup to let the user know what just happened. previously, Qt would get rapidly unhappy as it asked things to draw on screen over the null-state player, particularly if you show/hid the scanbar several times, and it would, if not removed promptly from screen, typically lead to a program crash
    furthermore, the scanbar now never interrogates the mpv window during its paint event. a mysterious interaction of C++ level objects during error state was causing the underlying instability here, and now I cannot reproduce this even if I try
    I also hardened the mpv window's 'no-media' state. now, rather than showing 'nothing' when media is unloaded, each mpv player now actually idles on a black png lol
    this tech will kick in for more extreme file failures, too, which have a different handler but seem to give the same detectable dump-out state
    fixed a silent-but-for-debug-mode error while destroying damaged mpv windows right when the program is terminating

    misc:

    thanks to a user, we now have import support for 'djvu' files. basically an open source PDF style format
    fixed pasting an image into 'system:similar files', which I missed updating in last week's code cleanup!
    a light but spammy legacy job that refreshed every search page's empty autocomplete every five minutes (to get updated system predicates/numbers) now only occurs to autocompletes on the current page. relatedly, when you switch to a search page you haven't looked at in five minutes, it triggers the same update immediately. this should save a tiny bit of idle CPU time and, more importantly, clear out the background job queue on larger-session clients
    I think I fixed some instances of the media viewer notes window initialising with a gigantic width on some OSes. if you often get a super wide notes window when you first open the media viewer, with it fixing itself when you cycle to a different file and back, let me know if things are any better
    when you have a popup message that has a 'show x files' button, usually from a subscription, that routine now excludes files that have been deleted since the button was created. it updates its existing file count on a click, also, to how many files it actually will generate. if you click one of these buttons, delete some files, and then click it again, it should no longer produce ghost files in the new search page. I'm going to add some more tech to optionally handle the system:hash predicate in a page in similar ways, 'locking' it to the current page content and preserving file sort so it works nice with 'remove files' etc..
    fixed a stupid typo that was swapping the 'allow non-local connections' server setting when making the interface for IPv6 hosts. there is a secondary check of all client IPs on every request, so I am confident this was not enabling non-local connections when undesired on IPv6, but it was disabling them by deploying the loopback interface when they should have been allowed! sorry for the trouble, and well done to the person who noticed this
    while pursing an odd and rare problem where a download job can start even though it should be waiting on a login process, I cleaned some of the login code and logic, lowering the timeout for session cookie expiring from 60 to 45 minutes and smoothing out some confusing status-checking in the pre-login stage. I could never reproduce the problem, though, so if you have had this issue, please let me know more and I'll see if I can reproduce this reliably

    simple cleanup:

    cleaned up some filetype parsing code that was getting a little messy, also reduced some overhead
    unified the thumbnail/file filetype parsing a little, with better fallback states when a hydrus thumbnail happens for some reason not to be a jpeg or png
    fixed an out of date menu reference in the 'help my media files are broke.txt' document. 'clear orphan files' is under 'file maintenance' now, not 'db maintenance'

Changelog


    User contributions:

    Thanks to a user, krita files are now renderable! we've got the defaults set like psds for now, where the preview viewer will show 'open externally', but the media viewer tries to load the full thing. let's see how it goes, and as always, if you have one that doesn't work, please send it in! note that krita are now eligible for the similar files system, so I've queued them up to get entered into it
    Thanks to a user, setting an IPFS 'nocopy' path including your home directory (~) should now expand correctly (issue #1320)
    Thanks to a user, newly-IPFS-pinned files are properly aware of their multihashes now (previously you needed a client restart or media reload after a delay) (issue #1328)
    Thanks to a user, the url and hdd downloaders now have 'stop/abort' buttons, which will stop current work and cancel the rest of the queue. I added a yes/no dialog where you can choose to skip or delete the remainder of the queue and a couple of bells and whistles like disabling the button when the current queue has no remaining work

    Misc:

    Fixed an issue with successive drag and drop file exports that gave different files the same filename. previously, the successive files were being replaced with the first instance with the shared name (basically the original files were not being 'overwritten'), but it should be fixed now!
    Various places that were sorting services pseudorandomly now do so alphabetically (the F9 new page selector was doing this with local file domains (the first buttons in 'file search'), if you had multiple set up. sorry if I mess with your muscle memory here, but things should be more reliable here going forward!)
    Added a first version of an auto-update script, auto_update_installer.bat, to the main install directory. it will download the latest Windows exe installer using winget and install it to the current location. if you use the installer, you might want to experiment with it (make a backup first!) as an easy hands-free update solution. let me know how it goes, and if there are no problems in a couple of weeks, I'll add it to the help
    Added some more mpv error handling. if the mainloop behind your mpv window halts (which happens on various internal problems), we now detect it and more gracefully disable the viewer and its commands (previously it would escalate to error popups and try to keep working)
    Fixed an issue in the newer 'missing file storage recovery' code if there is more than one base location missing

    Thumbnail shortcuts:

    I converted all the old hardcoded thumbnail keyboard shortcuts (thumbnail focus movement, open-media-viewer, and select-files) to the newer user-editable system under file->shortcuts, under a new set called 'thumbnails'. there are some new file-filters too, so you can set up 'select inbox' and similar beyond the default ctrl+a to 'select all' and escape to 'select none'
    I don't expect many people will want to even touch the giganto list of (shift+)(numpad)left/right/up/down/page up/page down/home/end selection combinations, but if you want to, you can!
    The thumbnails set also now allows 'launch the archive/delete filter', which had an odd home in 'media' before. new users now start with F12 set up in 'thumbnails', not 'media'
    I removed the jank semi-secret 'ctrl+space' hardcoded 'deselect current focused thumbnail' shortcut. that tech will probably return when I figure out more sensible logic and user settings around shift+ and ctrl+ behaviour
    This cleanup reduces three different shortcut handling routines down to one, and it particularly clears the last place where I was using ancient grandfathered wx-based 'accelerator table' tech. it should be easier to update the thumbnail shortcuts in future, and I hope to plug the mouse into it also, so you can edit middle-click to launch media etc..

    Client api:

    After much discussion and personal vacillating, I have decided to include the version and hydrus_version in every JSON Client API response. CBOR responses are not affected. if you need to hook into these numbers for a completely stateless interface, it is now super convenient. I'm not delighted with the spamminess of this, but it is just a handful of characters and it adds value for several situations, so I'm willing to try it out
    Updated the documentation and unit tests regarding this
    The client api version is now 54

    Boring stuff:

    File filter objects are now serialisable
    Application commands can now hold serialisable objects in their 'simple data' slot
    I made a new 'slightly more than simple' application command to hold a 'thumbnail move' that has both a direction and a selection status. I expect it will be expanded in future to handle ctrl+ selection and other logic preferences
    I made a new application command to hold the file filter. I just pre-populate the UI with a dropdown with commond choices for now, but in future it could hold a customisable file filter, once, ha ha, I have some UI to actually edit one!
    Cleaned up various shortcut code
    Misc linting cleanup

Changelog


    Misc:

    Optimised taglist sorting code, which is really groaning when it gets to 50k+ unique tags. the counting is more efficient now, but more work can be done
    optimised taglist internal update recalc by updating existing items in place instead of remove/replace and skipping cleanup-sort when no new items are added and/or the sort is not count-based. it should also preserve selection and focus stuff a bit better now
    thanks to a user, we have some new url classes to handle the recent change in sankaku URL format. your sank subscriptions are likely to go slightly crazy for a week as they figure out where they are caught up to, sorry!
    if a file copy into your temp directory fails due to 'Errno 28 No space left on device', the client now pops up more information about this specific problem, which is often a symptom of trying to import a 4GB drive into a ramdisk-hosted tempdir and similar. many Linux flavours relatedly have special rules about the max filesize in the tempdir!

    Maintenance and processing:

    Advanced users only, don't worry about it too much
    the options->maintenance and processing page has several advanced new settings. these are all separately hardcoded systems that I have merged into more of the same logic this week. the UI is a tower of spam, but it will serve us useful when we want to test and fine tune clients that are having various sorts of maintenance trouble
    a new section for potential duplicate search now duplicates the 'do search in idle time' setting you see in the duplicates page and has new 'work packet time' and 'rest time percentage' settings
    a new section for repository processing now exposes the similar 'work/rest' timings for 'normal', 'idle', and 'very idle' (after an hour of idle mode). if I have been working with you on freezes or memory explosions during PTR processing, increase the rest percentages here to 50-2,000, let's see if that gives your client time to breathe and clean up old work
    a new section for sibling/parent sync does the same, for 'idle', 'normal', and 'work hard' modes same deal here probably
    a new section for the deferred database table delete system does the same, for 'idle', 'normal', and 'work hard' modes
    I duplicated the 'do sibling/parent sync in idle/normal time' tags menu settings to this options page. they are synced, so altering one updates the other
    if you change the 'run file maintenance jobs in idle/normal time' settings in the dialog, the database menu now properly updates to reflect any changes
    the way these various systems calculate their rest time now smoothes out extreme bumps. sibling/parent display, in particular, should wait for a good amount of time after a big bump, but won't allow itself to wait for a crazy amount of time

    All deleted files:

    Fixed the various 'clear deletion record' commands to also remove from the 'all deleted files' service cache, which stores all your deleted files for all known specific file services and is used for various search tech on deleted file domains
    also wrote a command to completely regen this cache from original deletion records. it can be fired under database->regenerate->all deleted files. this will happen on update, to fix the above retroactively
    removed the foolish 'deleted from all deleted files' typo-entry from the advanced multiple file domain selector list. the value and use of a deletion record from a virtual combined deletion record is a complicated idea, and the entities that lurk in the shadows of the inverse sphere would strongly prefer that we not consider the matter any more

    Running from source stuff:

    The setup_venv script has slightly different Qt questions this week, so if you have your own custom script that types the letters in for you, double-check what it is going to do before updating this week!
    there's a new version of PySide6, 6.6.0. the (t)est Qt version in the 'setup_venv' now points to this. it seems fine to me on a fairly normal Win 11 machine, but if recent history is any guide, there's going to be a niggle somewhere. if you have been waiting for a fix on the menu position issue or anything else, give it a go! if things go well, I'll roll this into a larger 'future' test release and then we'll integrate it into main
    also, since Qt is the most test-heavy library we have, the 'setup_venv' scripts for all platforms now have an option to (w)rite your own version in!
    the program no longer needs distutils, and thus should now be compatible (or less incompatible, let's see, ha ha) with python 3.12. thanks for the user report and assistance here

    Boring stuff:

    Rejiggered a couple of maintenance flows to spend less time aggressively chilling out doing nothing
    the hydrus timedelta widget can now handle milliseconds
    misc code cleaning
    fixed a typo in the thumbnail 'select->local/not local' descriptions/tooltips

    Misc:

    If you enter invalid URLs (i.e. non-parsing) into 'manage URLs', the dialog now lets you know they were not apparently good and asks if you want to enter them anyway. previously, it errored-out and disallowed anything that wasn't parsing ok (issue #1444)
    When physically deleting files (i.e. deleting from trash or picking 'permanently delete' from the advanced delete dialog), the relevant files are now immediately removed from view. there were some situations where, when physically deleting a lot of files (causing the job to clear in batches), you could subsequently click on a soon-to-be-deleted file, loading it in mpv, and then, if you started a big UI-lag job like loading 'manage siblings', it could cause a crash if the file was deleted during the UI hang (issue #1447)
    The client now explicitly closes and clears its network connections after five minutes of inactivity. it turns out that the behind the scenes tools were not doing this exactly as I had thought, clogging up connection slots (issue #1458)
    Thanks to a user, the rendering of palettized PNGs with ICC profiles is fixed!
    Fixed the github build script to include the new-as-of-a-couple-of-weeks-ago 'auto_update_installer.bat' file in the Windows builds. sorry for the confusion here, I forgot I had to do this!
    Optimised deselection of a large number of files when you already have a lot of thumbnails selected (a tricky example of this is clicking on an unselected file when you have a lot of files selected, thus deselecting all that old stuff). should be a little faster to work on big lists now
    Further optimised reduction recalculation of the taglist in general

    Thumbnail fill:

    After vacillating and talking about it for months, I finally reworked how ''scale to fill' thumbnails work. as sometimes happens, I only had to change about six critical lines of code to get the core functionality changed and nothing seems to have exploded
    The main change here is KISS--'fill' thumbnail image files on disk are no longer clipped to just the viewable area, but the whole image scaled to fill the thumbnail space (with exceptions for extreme cases). this change gives us some simplicity and flexibility behind the scenes, saves some regeneration work when the user only changes one thumbnail dimension setting, improves maintenance tasks based off the thumbnail (like blurhash), and means that the Client API can fetch your thumbs and still have something useful to display
    If you have 'scale to fill' set, hydrus will regenerate your thumbnails naturally as you browse the client. fingers crossed, you won't notice any visual difference through the transition
    'open externally' button panels now display their thumbnails with more reasonable maximum dimensions, and when things are gonk for whatever reason, they should nonetheless be centered correctly
    As a side thing, this change allowed me to finally purge all the clipping tech from the thumbnail pipeline, where it had obtusely sunk in to every possible filetype thumbgen

    Eager login system:

    I fixed a problem where some sorts of login script could allow a network job supposedly waiting on them to start before they had completed. it was due to a complicated 'am I logged in?' cookie testing issue while the login process was still working. all network jobs that hypothetically need a login now test if there is a login process currently working on their domain and will properly wait for that process to finish before they move on
    Fixed a 'cannot log in' reporting bug in the login system
    Some misc login code cleanup

    Smarter orphan file record and repository update handling:

    This is advanced stuff, most users can ignore
    Database->db maintenance->clear orphan file records is now able to recover file records where A) the file is in a service component but not the master, B) the file exists on disk. it copies the import timestamp from the specific to the umbrella domain and spams all the repaired files to a new page for user review. this maintenance routine isn't used all that much, but when you have a damaged database, it is nice to recover as much as possible rather than having to export (with clear orphan file records+clear orphan files) and then reimport and lose archive/inbox status and import timestamps
    Repository update files now have a 'delete from repository updates' entry in their right-click menu
    This area of the code appears to be related to the PTR 404 issue some users have had (it seems to be repository update records not beeing added/deleted/updated correctly), so I am likely to revisit this
    Deleting a file from 'all local files' (which happens for repository update files) now correctly updates the UI-level media object to recognise that the file is fully deleted from all local file domains beneath the umbrella, removing the 'delete from x' commands from their menu, and in the right view contexts removing them from view completely

    misc:

    thanks to a user, we have a new checkbox under options->thumbnails that disables thumbnail fading. they'll just blink into place in one frame as soon as ready
    after looking at this code myself, I gave it a full clean. the actual thumbnail fade animation is now handled with some proper objects rather than a scatter of variables passed around
    I also doubled the default fade time to 500ms. I expect I'll add an option for it, especially if we rework all this into the proper Qt animation engine and get it performing better
    fixed the crashes users on PyQt were seeing! I made one tiny change (1->1.0) last week, and PyQt didn't like it, so any view of Mr Bones or 'open externally' panels, or the media viewer top-right ratings hover was leading to program instability
    the system predicates for 'has/no duration', 'has/no frames', 'has/no notes', 'has/no words' (i.e. the respective 'num x' system pred, but either = 0 or >0) are now aware that they are each others' inverse, so if you ctrl+double-click or do similar edit actions, they'll flip
    updated the 'PTR for dummies' page to link to a new QuickSync source, kindly maintained and hosted by a user

    code cleanup and misc bug fixes:

    sped up some random iteration across the program (e.g. when deciding which order to waterfall thumbnails in, which can suffer from overhead if you do a fast giganto-scroll)
    cleaned up the code that does image alpha channel (transparency) detection, comparison, and stripping
    unified how the variety of image loads and conversions perform the 'strip this image of useless transparency data' normalisation step. thumbnails from krita, svg, and pdf are now stripped of useless alpha. also, all 'import this serialised object png' avenues now handle pngs with spurious alpha
    I think I fixed the alpha channel stripping code to handle 'LA' (greyscale with transparency) files. if you try to import a hydrus serialised object png file that is for some crazy reason now LA, I think it'll work!
    when a files popup message filters its current files and the count goes to 0 (happens if you re-click the button after deleting everything it has to show), the message now auto-dismisses itself (previously it was nuking the button but staying as a thin strip of null panel space)
    fixed a bug where system:date predicates were displaying labels an hour off (usually midnight -> 11pm, thus cycling back to the previous day) thanks to the clocks changed (in the USA) last weekend. I suspect there is more of this, here and there, so let me know what you see
    fixed a counting typo error with the delete files code when you delete the last file in a domain but the domain thinks it already has 0 files
    fixed up similar code across the database to forestall future typos on SQLite SUMs
    improved and unified the 'hydrus temp dir' management code. if the specific per-process hydrus temp dir is cleared out by an external factor (I'm guessing just the OS cleaning up during a long running client session), hydrus should just simply make a new folder as needed. with luck, this will fix a problem with drag and drop export that ran into this

    many file move/copy error handling improvements:

    tl;dr: if hydrus can't put a file somewhere, it deals with that better now
    improved how file move/merge function reports its errors, and how all its callers handle them
    the 'rename a file's file extension when its filetype changes' job now correctly recognises when it fails to rename a file due to a reason other than the file being currently in use
    import folders now correctly detect when they fail to 'move' action a file out after processing
    the check file integrity routine now correctly detects when it fails to move a damaged file from file storage to a landing zone in the main db directory. this failure now cancels the job properly and prints a nicer error to the log
    improved how the file copy/mirror function reports its errors, and how all its callers handle them
    saving a serialised object png now properly catches a 'transfer from temp dir to dest location' move error
    the internal database backup and restore routines now detect file copy errors better
    a drag and drop export operation that wants to put the files in the temp dir and also fails to collect its files nicely now correctly raises an error
    failing to set the mpv file on options save (and the subsequent mpv-load action) now reports its error correctly
    exporting update files now handles a missing update file more gracefully
    mergedirectory and mirrordirectory now fail instantly after any single error, rather than several
    added some more file/directory pre-checks to all the merge/mirror functions
    deleted some old unused code here

    client api:

    thanks to a user, the Client API now has a 'generate_hashes' endpoint that returns the sha256 hash (and pixel hash and perceptual hashes of any appropriate image file) of any file you give it
    the client api version is now 55

    Fixes:

    Fixed a stupid typo in the folder copy/move tech last week that was not allowing some move/copies to start (as always, the thing that is so simple that you don't think to test it is the very thing that blows up). sorry for the trouble!
    cleaned up the file/folder move/copy error statements a little more
    fixed the 'default search page tag service' dropdown in options->search not saving correctly
    fixed the 'open externally' panel having out of position thumbnails when your thumbnail supersampling is set to other than 100%
    fixed the import and display of images in signed 16-bit format (weird TIFFs, seems like).
    any image with an unusual channel data type beyond uint16 and int16 is going to be, as the default thing to do, normalised to unsigned 8-bit. it may blow out the colour range, but it should show something!
    the client handles files with (0x0) resolution better. they should now always import, and it'll attempt to render them to a normal full size thumb. if it works (e.g. this is some misconfigured SVG), great, and if it doesn't, we'll get a nicely sized filetype.png or hydrus.png fallback
    files with (0x0) resolution will now never show in the preview or media viewers. previously, the preview viewer would bail out half-way through setting the media, causing it to fall into an invalid state where it still showed the previous valid media but wouldn't 'click-off' it easily, and the media viewer would generally panic to its 'no media to show' state and lose navigation functionality. now, files that are 0x0 are included in the general 'can we show this?' pre-launch sanity checks

The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

Changelog


    Animated gif fixes:

    fixed the false positive "serious I/O Error! This is a significant hard drive problem" problems saw in last week's animated gif 'has transparency' rescanning. it turns out the PIL animated gif renderer we rarely use was raising overly serious errors on a truncated frame (i.e. some borked file, not a borked OS hard drive access), and this was escalating up to the overall maintenance system, which was shutting down in panic. truncated gifs in the PIL renderer should now just either render the last frame over and over or rewind as soon as they hit a super problem
    as well as rendering, the duration and frame-counter code also handles these borked frames better, so animated gifs that have a single borked frame should now A) import without an error and B) get more accurate frame counts
    you may have seen this sort of error before where an mpv window seems to keep rendering the gif despite the scanbar hitting its right end. if you see a file like that, try right-clicking and hitting manage->maintenance->regenerate file metadata. might just fix it up!
    if mpv encounters one of these busted gifs, a selection of quiet-but-spammy "I don't know what happened, but MPV just reported a weird error, here it is" logging no longer happens. we basically know what happened, and mpv seems good at recovering
    fixed some PIL alpha gif rendering on backwards seek and loop

    Slideshow tech:

    options->media has a new 'slideshow' section with five new options regarding slideshows and media with duration (video, audio). if you don't care too much, just leave them alone--they make slideshows transition better!
    first, there's a checkbox to say 'always play duration-having media completely once through before moving on'. this was the previous behaviour, now default off
    then there are two options, for a percentage of the current slideshow period and a flat seconds value, to say 'if the duration-having media is shorter than this amount of time, then move the slideshow on early'. this allows short gif loops to play a bit, but not for 15 minutes
    then there is an option, for a percentage of the current slideshow period, to say 'if the duration-having media has a duration between this amount and 100% of the slideshow period, then move on once it has played once through'. this allows for clean slideshow transitions for media that is just a bit shorter than the slideshow period
    then there is an option, again for a percentage of the slideshow period, to say 'if the duration-having media is longer than the slideshow period plus this amount of time, then delay moving on until it is played once through'. this allows 35 second videos to complete fully in a 30 second slideshow while stopping a ten minute vid hogging its turn
    completely rewrote the slideshow timer tech
    did a little work bringing the experimental Qt media player up to proper slideshow capability, and neatened the associated code
    yes, hydev did write all these options for his repurposed slideshow computer because he was annoyed about his vidya captures and 500ms loops playing jank on a 30m slideshow period

    Misc:

    the file-info-summary lines that appear in the top row thumbnail menu submenu now show if a file has audio/transparency/exif/other metadata/icc profile
    the file-info-summary lines that appear in the top row thumbnail menu submenu and the top-center of the media viewer no longer list 'removed from x 5 days ago' for files that were moved internally between local file services. these statements were spammy and not helpful! if you really need them, are available in the 'manage times' dialog. sorry for the annoyance here
    trying to move a file from local file service x to y no longer triggers the archive delete lock, if you have that enabled (this was prohibiting the delete from x after the copy to y is done)
    the 'import options' button now labels itself with 'all default', 'all set', or 'some set' to quick-review what it is holding
    the stupidly named advanced users' OR* button is now just advanced
    the 'manage->regenerate' thumbnail menu is now called 'maintenance', and it always contains the whole file maintenance job list just as it appears in the main file maintenance panel. tooltips are the longer descriptions
    if you reduce a static check time in a checker options (watchers or subscriptions), the next check time should now recalculate correctly immediately. previously, the new check period wasn't kicking in until the next, delayed cycle. I have preserved the logic that tries to keep a static check time regular (which was the core problem here), where if you check every 7 days on saturday night, then delaying one time and running it on sunday night won't delay the check time phase along to next sunday--the next week it will be due on saturday again
    the system:rating edit panel has some tooltips that say 'Set "is" and leave rating null to search for "unrated".'. maybe this is annoying, maybe I should just add redundant 'unrated' checkboxes, let me know what you think
    when the file maintenance routine runs into a serious error (like we had with the false positive transparent gifs), the popup messages now include a file button for the problem file for easy referral
    if a file breaks MPV in a crashy-looking way, hydrus now makes a popup with a file button to it for easy referral
    fixed a typo issue with the recent temp folder recovery code that broke the temp folder for file imports on the hydrus file repository. sorry for the trouble, this slipped through unit testing because that too has a hacky temp folder solution!

    Weird/specific stuff:

    I've spaced out many of the initial library loads across the core boot init routine. fingers crossed, the splash screen will open earlier and report more as things each import, rather than taking ages to appear and then suddenly initialising everything real quick (on slow computers). also, a monolithic UI init job is broken up into pieces, which should let the splash update itself a little smoother as your client loads its style and stuff
    the file and database maintenance managers are now initialised in a better stage, and, like the subscription manager, they now do not start any work until the first session is fully loaded
    while pouring over the server code trying to find a petition miscount bug and/or a petition summary fetch bug (which I was entirely unsuccessful at), I stopped it 404ing when there are unexpectedly no petitions to fetch--it should now just give an empty list and reset the count serverside, which is an old behaviour that wasn't working quite right in the modern system. this will cost less CPU than commanding the full service service_info number reset. I will have to investigate the core problem of miscounts more closely to figure out the base problem here
    if two subscription jobs publish files to the same popup label (which merges the popup button to include both sets of files), this file list is now properly deduplicated (so if both subs picked up the same file(s), it now won't try to publish the same file twice). the basic popup button instantiation also clears out dupes
    the 'additional tags'-only tag import options in a subscription query can now no longer be set 'default'. this choice was unintended and has no current meaning if set
    building on last week, there are even fewer duplicate menu tooltips
    updated and clarified the text in options->external programs. also, if you try to put a command that does not include "%path%", it'll moan at you with a yes/no dialog
    when 'confirm sending files to trash' is off but 'use advanced file delete dialog' is also on, the advanced file delete dialog will now not pop up if there is only one normal local file service to delete from (it was always popping up before, since it exposes the physical file delete options and the dialog thought it wasn't a 'one-choice' delete)
    the forced-wait throttle that happens on several exception catches is reduced from 1s to 200ms
    I made the new job status queue properly thread-safe with a lock. I forgot to do it last week, whoops!
    fixed the build script to construct a file named .tar.zst for the Ubuntu release, not .tar.gz

Changelog


    Ugoira/CBZ/Zip:

    the Ugoira/CBZ conversion last week went ok! we found too many false-positive Ugoiras, however, so I have decided to make that test stricter. Ugoiras now have to have zero-indexed filesnames, and always zero-filled to six digits. all your Ugoiras will get scanned again to see if they should better be CBZ
    all zip files that are not openable passworded, corrupt) are now detected early and just set as 'zip'

    OpenCV:

    after discussing it with users, I have made the decision to slowly remove the image library OpenCV from the program. it has served us well, but it has always been a difficult-to-install bloat, and the super-compatible PIL actually does the job better these days. we'll simplify our rendering pipeline while also, with luck, improving HDR format support in future
    thanks to a user, a critical OpenCV call involved in generating similar-files search metadata perceptual hashes DCT) is now replaced with non-OpenCV tech
    PIL can now load images in int32 or float32 greyscale, with or without ICC Profiles, and it shouldn't look too crazy OpenCV was handling these before)
    deleted all the old OpenCV gif rendering and metadata scanning tech
    if you would like to help test, please turn on options->media->IN TESTING: Load images with PIL. this used to be just a BUGFIX thing, but now it emulates where we actually want to end up. please send me any image files that render weird

    better boot error handling:

    if an error happens very early during boot, before the main Application event loop and splash screen are started, hydrus will now try and spin up a very small App and text dialog to show you the error visually! of course, if the error is Qt-related, then this won't work, ha ha ha, but you'll still always get the crash log
    the client will now boot if the 'already-running' file exists but is incomprehensible--it'll just log that it was. also, if any other problem occurs during the 'already-running' check, hydrus assumes it is not already running and prints the error to the log
    improved the 'can we write to the database folder?' test a little more. previously, if the db directory on boot was both missing and its parent was read-only, it would raise an error. now we correctly recognise that state as 'not writeable'
    also, the fallback to the userpath db directory now only happens if you do not set a -d/--db_dir launch parameter. if you specifically set a launch path and that place is missing or read only, the program will not boot! I am more comfortable doing this now that we have the dialog to better display what happened
    unified the 'what db dir are we using?' tests to one place
    also cleaned up some of the boot failure code, which was spamming things haphazardly
    string splitting and joining:
    the String Splitter and Joiner now interpret n in their splitter/joiner text as newline and other replacements like t for tab; anything python supports). in order to not break existing parsers, the old splitter and joiner strings will be encoded on update any will become \)
    added some unit tests to test this behaviour for both String Processor types

    misc:

    the system predicate parser is now plugged into the excellent dateparser library that we already use in downloader parsing. this thing can eat pretty much any date string you can throw at it, so if you type "system:archived time: since 01/05/2011" or "system:archived time: before 30 hours ago", it'll all work for almost any combination you can think of. it'll probably even work in your native language! the one big caveat is if you give a longer duration timestamp in the form 'x time units ago)', rather than a specific date, it'll convert it to days/hours, ignoring years and months. since this stuff causes a ton of headaches, I am likely going to switch all the time-delta time predicates here to work on days/hours/seconds, and if you want to put 60 or 365 days, knowing what inaccuracy that implies means, then you can, rather than have me continually fret over and fail to deliver various leap year calculation problems. calendarium delenda est
    fixed some thumbnail rendering for another class of damaged gif--this time, gifs that are so garbagified that they change their resolution from one frame to the next and/or produce a sizeless, shapeless frame of a handful of bytes. this is now detected and the bad data discarded!
    if a video seems to have 0/None duration, the main native ffmpeg renderer which is also used for thumbnail generation) can now handle it. the 'start x% in' value will be crazy, but it'll work
    fixed an error with mpv trying to inspect the duration of null media during various states of media viewer transition

    boring cleanup:

    gave a quick pass over the ~250 small 'just show some text and a system icon' dialogs work across the program. unified all calls through one location, improved some strings and string formatting, added more exception logging, unified the dialog titles, differentiated information/warning/critical flags better, made 'critical' messages log their titles and text, and made it all thread safe in a nice invisible way to callers
    fixed some borked page/popup permission checks in the client api
    if a file transitions from 'no transparency' to 'has transparency', the client will now queue a thumbnail regen, just in case that tech has been recently added
    improved the formatting of what the main error-logging method actually prints to the log
    slimmed down some of the watcher/subscription fixed-checking-time code
    misc formatting cleanup and surplus import clearout
    fixed the discord link in the PTR help document

    Misc:

    Fixed, on a file drag and drop, the new export path eliding code from raising an error when the default export phrase would give an empty filename. e.g. if you set the export phrase as [title] and the file has no title. this no longer raises an error, and the fallback export phrase {hash} is again used instead. broadly speaking, most errors here are now handled better
    also, export folders will now fallback to using {hash} if their normal export filename raises an error
    holding down ctrl+shift+ while selecting thumbnails now does the same thing as a bare shift+ select. previously, it was unhelpfully interpreting this as a bare ctrl+ click
    I may have improved the stability of 'minimise to system tray'. this thing still hangs the UI for some users on a delayed restore, I do not for certain know why
    thanks to a user who figured out the new build script, the Docker package is now on Alpine 3.19, with more and newer python library support along with it

    Fixed the basic copy/paste in the single 'edit datetime' panel, wich was often raising a dumb error. this thing also now exports millisecond data (issue #1520)
    I am pretty sure I fixed the column-resizing problem in the very new PySide6 (Qt) 6.6.1, which it seems AUR users were recently updated to in an automatic OS update. all columns were setting to 100px width on initialisation. I think it is now safe to try out 6.6.1. I am still not sure why it was doing this, but some extra safeguards seem to have fixed it and also not broken things for <=6.6.0, so let me know what you run into! if you were affected by this, recall that you can right-click on any multi-column list header and say 'reset widths' to get something sensible back here
    When exporting files, the max size is now clipped another 84 characters (64 + 20 more, which usually ends up about 150 characters max for the output filename), in order to give padding for longer sidecar suffixes and also avoid going right to the filesystem limit, which broadly isn't sensible
    I think I fixed an issue where the mouse could stay hidden, perhaps, just on Wayland, after closing the media viewer with your keyboard (issue #1518)
    Fixed inc/dec ratings in the media viewer not updating their tooltips on new media correctly
    If you hit 'open this location' on the export files window and the location does not exist, you now get a nice messagebox rather than a semi-silent error

Changelog


    MacOS improvements:

    Thanks to a user, we have multiple improvements for macOS!
    There is a new icon for the macOS .app build of hydrus
    The macOS app will now appear as "Hydrus" in the menu bar instead of "Hydrus Network"
    Use the native global menu bar on macOS and some Linux desktop environments
    "options" will now appear as "Preferences..." and be under the Hydrus menu on macOS
    "exit" will now appear as "Quit Hydrus" and be under the Hydrus menu on macOS
    "exit and force shutdown maintenance", "restart", and "shortcuts" will now be under the Hydrus menu on macOS
    The hydrus system tray icon is now enabled for macOS and "minimise to system tray" will be in the Hydrus menu when in advanced mode
    macOS debug dialog menus are now disabled by default
    The macOS build of hydrus now uses pyoxidizer 0.24.0 and Python 3.10
    The command palette and hyperlinks colors in the default Qt stylesheet now use palette based colors that should change based on the Qt style
    One thing hydev did: on macOS, Cmd+W should now close any dialog or non-main-gui window, just like the Escape key

    Shortcuts:

    By default, Alt+Home/End/Left/Right now does the new thumbnail rearranging. assuming they do not conflict with an existing mapping, all users will recieve this on update
    By default, the shortcuts system now converts all non-number 'numpad' inputs (e.g. 'numpad Home', 'numpad Return', 'numpad Left') to just be normal inputs. a bunch of different keyboards have whack numpad assignments for non-numpad keys, so if it isn't a number, let's not, by default, make a fuss over the distinction. you can return to the old behaviour by unchecking the new checkbox under file->shortcuts
    The default shortcuts now no longer spam numpad variants anywhere. existing users can delete the surplus mappings (under 'thumbnails' and maybe some of the 'media' sets) if they like

    Some UI QoL:

    The tag service menu button that appears in the autocomplete panel and sometimes some other places in advanced mode now shows a proper check mark in its menu beside its current value
    The location context menu button on the other side of an autocomplete panel and some other places also now shows a check mark in its menu beside its current value
    The OR button on search autocomplete that creates new OR predicates now inherits the current file search domain. it was previously defaulting at all times to the fallback file domain and 'all known tags'
    The current search predicates list also now inherits the file search domain when you edit an OR predicate currently in use, same deal
    Removed the 'favourites' submenu from the taglist menu when no tags are selected
    In any import context, the file log's arrow menu now supports deleting all the 'unknown' (outstanding, unstarted) items or setting them all to 'skipped'. the 'abort imports' button (with the stop icon) in HDD and urls import pages is removed

    Misc:

    Fixed yet another dumb problem with the datetime control's paste button--although the paste was now 'working' on the UI side, the control wasn't saving that result on dialog ok. the fixes both the datetime button and the modified/file service time multi-column list editing
    A core asynchronous thread-checking timer in the program has been rewritten from a 20ms-resolution busy-wait to a <1ms proper wait/notify system. a bunch of stuff that works in a thread is now much faster to recognise that blocking UI work is done, and it is more thread-polite about how it does it!
    In the setup_venv scripts, if it needs to delete an old venv directory but fails to do so, the script now dumps out with an error saying 'hey, you probably have it open in a terminal/IDE, please close that and try again'. previously, it would just charge on and produce an odd file permission error as, e.g., the new venv setup tried to overwrite the in-use python exe
    Added a help->debug->gui->isolate existing mpv widgets command to force regeneration of mpv windows and help test-out/hack-fix various 'every other of my mpv views has no audio' and 'my mpv loses xxx property after a system sleep/wake cycle' problems. if I've been working with you on this stuff, please give it a go and let me know if new mpv window creation is good or what!
    Added a BUGFIX: Disable off-screen window rescue checkbox to options->gui that stops windows that think they are spawning off-screen from repositioning to a known safe screen. several Qt versions have had trouble with enumerating all the screens in a multiple monitor setup and thus the safe coordinate space, so if you have been hit by false positives here, you can now turn it off! (issue #1511)
    Fixed another couple instances of error texts with empty formatting braces {}

    Tag repository:

    Mapping petitions fetched from the server will now max out at 500k mapping rows or 10k unique tags or ten seconds of construction time. we had a 250k-unique-tag petition this last week and it broke something, so I'm slapping a bunch of safety rails on. let me know if these are too strict, too liberal, or if it messes with the fetch workflow at all--I don't think it will, but we'll see

    Build stuff:

    Now they have had time to breathe, I optimised the recently split Github build scripts. the 'send to an ubuntu runner and then upload' step is now removed from all three, so they are natively uploaded in the first runner step. it works just a little nicer and faster now, although it did require learning how to truncate and export a variable to the Github Environment Variables file in Powershell, aiiieeeee
    also, Github is moving from Node 16 to Node 20 soon, and I have moved two of the four actions we rely on to their newer v20 versions. a third action should be ready to update next week, and another, a general download file function, I have replaced with curl (for macOS) and Powershell's magical Invoke-WebRequest adventure

Changelog


    More macOS work:

    Thanks to a user, we have more macOS features:

    MacOS users get a new shortcut action, default Space, that uses Quick Look to preview a thumbnail like you can in Finder all existing users will get the new shortcut!
    The hydrus app now has the version number in Get Info
    MacOS users who run from source should rebuild their venvs this week! if you don't, then trying this new Quick Look feature will just give you an error notification

    New fuzzy operator math in system predicates:

    The system predicates for width, height, num_notes, num_words, num_urls, num_frames, duration, and framerate now support two different kinds of approximate equals, ˜: absolute (±x), and percentage (±x%) previously, the ˜ secretly just did ±15% in all cases (issue #1468)
    All system:framerate=x searches are now converted to ±5%, which is what they were behind the scenes != framerate stuff is no longer supported, so if you happened to use it, it is now converted to < just as a valid fallback
    System:duration gets the same thing, ±5% it wasn't doing this behind the scenes before, but it should have been!
    System:duration also now allows hours and minutes input, if you need longer!
    For now, the parsing system is not updated to specify the % or absolute ± values it will remain the same as the old system, with ±15% as the default for a ~= input
    There's still a little borked logic in these combined types if you search < 3 URLs, that will return files with 0 URLs, and same for num_notes, but if you search < 200px width or any of the others I changed this week, that won't return a PDF that has no width (although it will return a damaged file that reports 0 width specifically) I am going to think about this, since there isn't an easy one-size-fits-all-solution to marry what is technically correct with what is actually convenient I'll probably add a checkbox that says whether to include 'Null' values or not and default that True/False depending on the situation; let me know what you think!

    Misc:

    I have taken out Space as the default for archive/delete filter 'keep' and duplicate filter 'this is better, delete other' Space is now exclusively, by default, media pause/play I am going to set this to existing users too, deleting/overwriting what Space does for you, if you are still set to the defaults
    Integer percentages are now rendered without the trailing 0 15%, not 150%
    When you 'open externally', 'open in web browser', or 'open path' from a thumbnail, the preview viewer now pauses rather than clears completely
    Fixed the edit shortcut panel ALWAYS showing the new (home/end/left/right/to focus) dropdown for thumbnail dropdown, arrgh
    I fixed a stupid typo that was breaking file repository file deletes
    Help->about now shows the Qt platformName
    Added a note about bad Wayland support to the Linux 'installing' help document
    The guy who wrote the Fixing_Hydrus_Random_Crashes_Under_Linux document has updated it with new information, particularly related to running hydrus fast using virtual memory on small, underpowered computers

    Client api:

    Thanks to a user, the undocumented API call that returns info on importer pages now includes the sha256 file hash in each import object Object
    Although it is a tiny change, let's nonetheless update the Client API version to 61

    Boring predicate overhaul work:

    Updated the NumberTest object to hold specific percentage and absolute ± values
    Updated the NumberTest object to render itself to any number format, for instance pixels vs kilobytes vs a time delta
    Updated the Predicate object for system preds width, height, num_notes, num_words, num_urls, num_frames, duration, and framerate to store their operator and value as a NumberTest, and updated predicate string rendering, parsing, editing, database-level predicate handling
    Wrote new widgets to edit NumberTests of various sorts and spammed them to these (operator, value) system predicate UI panels we are finally clearing out some 8+-year-old jank here
    Rewrote the num_notes database search logic to use NumberTests
    The system preds for height, width, and framerate now say 'has x' and 'no x' when set to >0 or =0, although what these really mean is not perfectly defined

    Tag sorting bonanza:

    Options->sort/collect now offers four places to customise default tag sort. instead of having one default sort for everything, there's now sort for search pages, media viewers, and the manage tags dialogs launched off of them

    Tag filter:

    When you copy namespaces from the tag filter list, it now copies the actual underlying data text like character:, which you can paste in elsewhere, rather than the pretty "character" tags display text
    Brushed up some of the UI and help text on the tag filter UI
    Fixed a couple places where the tag copy menus were trying to let you copy an empty string, which ended up with -invalid label-
    Fixed some extremely janked-out logic in the tag filter that was sending (un)namespaced tags to the 'except for these' advanced whitelist in many cases. it was technically ok, but not ideal and overall inhuman

    Concatenated source urls:

    On rule34.xxx and probably some other places, when the file has multiple source urls, the gelbooru-style parsers were pulling the urls in the format [ A, B, C, 'A B C' ], adding this weird extra string concatenation that is obviously invalid. I fixed the parsers so it won't happen again
    On update, you are going to get a couple of yes/no dialogs asking if you want to scan for and delete existing instances of these URLs. if you have a big client, it will take some time to do this scan. the yes/no dialogs will auto-yes after ten minutes, so if you are doing a headless update via docker or something, please be patient--it will go through

    Note sidecars:

    The note->media sidecar exporter module now has a 'forced name' input. if you want to parse a single note from a .txt or .json that doesn't have a name, you can now force it
    The sidecard txt separator dropdown in the .txt importer module now has a 'four pipes (||||)' entry in the dropdown as a quick-select beside 'newline'. four pipes is a useful separator of multi-line notes content since it almost certainly won't come up in a normal note
    Some tooltips and stuff are updated around here to better explain what the hell is going on
    Added a unit test to test the forced name

    Misc:

    To help the recent shortcuts change that merged numpad variants of + and left arrow and so on into being seen as the unmodified variants, if you have a saved shortcut that is still the numpad variant, it will now match the unmodified input when the merge mode is on. just means you don't have to remap everything with this mode on--everything merged matches everything
    Added 'copy file known urls' to the 'media' shortcut set
    I forgot to mention last week that we figured out more native global menubar tech (where the top menubar of the program will embed into your OS's top system menubar) in last week's release, for non-macOS (some versions of Linux) users. the new checkbox is under gui->Use Native MenuBar. it defaults to on for macOS and off for everyone else, but feel free to try it. there was a related 'my menubar is now messed up, why?' bug that hit some people in v564 that is fixed today. sorry if you got boshed by this, since it was tricky to manually fix. in future, note you can hit ctrl+p in a default client to bring up the command palette, and then you can type 'options' and can open the options that way, if your menubar isn't working!
    Fixed the ideal usage calculation in database->move media files when there are three or more competing storage locations with two or more having a max size that is exceeded by their weight, and one or more having a max size that is only exceeded by their weight a little bit. due to a mistake in how total remaining weight was calculated in the little behind the scenes elimination game here, a location in this situation was exceeding its max size amount by a multiple of 1/(1-total_normalised_weight_of_restricted_locations), typically +10-30%. thank you for the report here, it was interesting to figure out!
    I removed a hack that made the repositories (like the PTR) work for users running super old versions of the client. the hack has now been in place for more than a year. if you run into repository syncing problems, please update to after v511!
    Fixed a dumb status line in the 'check for missing/invalid files' checker thah was double-counting bad files in the popup
    Fixed some media duration 'second' components being rendered with extraneous .0, like '30.0 seconds'
    Fixed a db routine that fetches a huge table in pieces to not repeat a few rows when the ids it is fetching are non-contiguous, and to report the correct quantity of work done as a result (it was saying like 17,563/17,562)
    The new help->about Qt platformName addition will now say if the actual platformName differs from the running platformName (e.g. if it was set otherwise with a Qt launch parameter)

    Client api:

    Just a small thing, but the under-documented /manage_database/get_client_options call now says the four types of default tag sort. I left the old key, default_tag_sort, in so as not to break stuff, but it is just a copy of the search_page variant in the new default_tag_sort_xxx foursome
    Client api version is now 62

(https://s26.postimg.cc/fmlbof0jd/screenshot_1213.png)
The Music Collection is a free program that allows you to archive your music collection. Using it you can enter in a collection any kind of music media that you own or you intend to. Also you can add or edit any kind of information concerning the albums in the collection.

The album info can be manually entered or automatically via the Internet. After saving the albums, you can browse them, filter albums by all possible criteria and search for particular album tracks you are interested. Also the program can display and print all data from your music collection in different ways, so you can pick the desired one.

The idea for creating the program was to manage my own music collection and i hope that it would be also useful to any music collector.

Freeware

Changelog


    Added : Location in the album grouping options.
    Added : Ability to add more artists in the non classical albums.
    Changed : Improved tag reading of M4A audio files.

Manage large media collections and re-organize them using tags instead of folders that you can share via custom servers with this application.

The Unlicense

Changelog


    Incremental tagging:

    When you boot a 'manage tags' dialog on multiple files, a new ± button now lets you do 'incremental tagging'. this is where you, let's say for twenty files, tag them from page:1->page:20. this has been a long time in the works, but now we have thumbnail reorganisation tech, it is now sensible to do.
    The dialog lets you set a namespace (or none), start point (e.g. you can start tagging at page:19 if you are doing the second chapter etc...), the step (you can count by +2 every file, instead of +1, or even -1 to decrement), the subtag prefix (so you can say 'page:insert-4' or something), and the subtag suffix (for, say, 'page:2 (wip)')
    The last namespace is remembered between dialog opens, and if the first file in the selection has a number tag in that namespace, that is the number the 'start' will initialise with. a bit of overlap/prep may save time here!
    The prefix and suffix are remembered between dialog opens
    A status text gives you a live preview of what you will be adding and says whether any of the files already have exactly those tags or have different tags under the same namespace (which would be possible conflicts, suggesting you are not lined up correct)

    Misc:

    Added import support for .docx, .xlsx, and .pptx files (the Microsoft Open XML Formats). they get icons, not much else. they are secretly zips, so on update, you will be asked if you want to scan your existing zips for these formats
    When you move a window to another screen in a maximised state (e.g. on Windows you can do this with win+shift+arrow), the system that remembers window coordinates will now register and save this. the 'restore' window size is preserved from whatever it was on the previous screen while the 'restore' position will try to stay the same on the new monitor (e.g. if it was at (200, 400) on the old monitor, it will try to do the same on the new) as long as the window fits, otherwise it is moved to (20,20) on the new screen
    The 'edit string converter' panel no longer requires you to enter an example text that can be converted. you can see the error on the dialog, so if you don't want to fix it, or you just need to nip in and out testing things, it is now up to you
    If the database takes a long time to update, the 'just woke up from sleep' state should no longer trigger. the system thought the long weird early delay was the computer going to sleep
    The system that gives a popup and then a dialog when you have 165+ (and then 500+ or so) pages open is now removed. this was always a wx thing primarily, and Qt is much happier about having a whole load of UI elements. the main problem here is now memory blot and UI-update lag. this is now in the user's hands alone, no more bothering from me (unless it becomes a new problem, and I'll figure out a better warning test/system)

    Boring code cleanup:

    Neatened how some manage tags ui is initialised. there's a hair of a chance this fixes the 'the manage tags dialog taglist is cut off sometimes' bug
    Neatened how some pending content updates are held in manage tags
    Manage tags dialogs now receive their media list in the same order as the underlying thumbnail selection, ha ha ha
    Untangled some of the presentation import options. stuff like 'is new or in inbox' gets slightly better description labels and cleaner actual logic code
    Fixed some type issues, some typo'd pubsubs, and other misc linting
    Tried last week's aborted github build update again. the build is now Node 20 compatible

Changelog


    user contributions:

    thanks to a user, the new docx, pptx, and xlsx support is improved, with better thumbnails (better ratio, better icon itself, and sometimes an actual preview thumbnail for pptx), better file detection (fewer false positives with stuff like ppt templates), and word count for docx and pptx. I am queueing everyone's existing docx and pptx files for a metadata rescan and thumbnail regen on update
    thanks to a user, the cbz scanner now ignores the __MACOSX folder
    thanks to a user, setting the Qt style in options->style should be more reliable (fixing some name case sensitivity issues)
    thanks to a user, there's a new 'default' dark mode QSS stylesheet that has nicer valid/invalid colours. we'll build on this and try to detect dark mode better in future and auto-switch to this as the base when the application is in dark mode.

    misc improvements:

    added a 'tag in reverse' checkbox to the new incremental tagger panel. this simply applies the given iterator to the last file first and then works backwards, e.g. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 for start=1, step=1 on five files
    all new system:url predicates will have slightly different (standardised) labels, and all these labels should parse correctly in the system predicate parser if you copy/paste
    the file log's right-click menu, the part where it says 'additional urls', is now more compact and will show the 'request url', if that differs from the main url, either because of the new ephemeral parameters or an api/redirect. it is now much easier to debug the various 'what was actually sent to the server?' problems!
    you should now be able to enter 'system:has url matching regex (regex with upper case)' and 'system:has url (url with upper case)' and it'll propagate through parsing. this definitely has not™ broken any other predicate parsing. you can enter url class names with upper case if you want, but url class names should now match regardless of letter case
    if you have added, edited, or deleted any url classes and try to cancel the 'manage url classes' dialog, it will now ask if that is correct
    added a new EXPERIMENTAL checkbox to options->tag presentation that will replace emojis and other unicode symbol garbage with ?. if you have crazy rendering for emoji stuff, try it out
    the tag summary generators that make thumbnail banners now wash their tags through the 'render tag for user' system, which will apply this new emoji rule and 'replace underscores with spaces'
    added the 'rating' parser from the default gelbooru 0.2.5 parser to the 0.2.0 parser; this should add for more 'rating' parsing from a variety of boorus

    misc fixes:

    fixed a typo bug when deleting domain-based timestamps in the edit times dialog
    fixed the 'system:has url matching class (blah)' predicate edit panel's initialisation. it was always initialising to the top of the list, not remembering the 'default' or 'I want to edit this' value it was initialising with
    'manage urls' now asks if it is ok to ok if you have any text still in the input
    you can now open the 'extra info' button (up top of a media viewer) on a jpeg if that jpeg has no exif or other human-readable metadata (to see just the progressive and subsampling info)
    updated the QuickSync link to its new home at https://breadthread.duckdns.org/

    append random text:

    the String Converter has a new step type: 'append random text'. you supply the population (e.g. '0123456789abcdef') and the number of characters (e.g. 16), and it will append 'b2f96e8eda457a1e', and then the next time you check, '1fa591ad9786ea3b', etc... useful if you want to, say, make up a new token

    URL storage/display changes:

    today I correct a foolish decision I made when I first implemented the hydrus downloader engine--handling and storing URLs internally as 'pretty' decoded text, rather than with the proper ugly '%20" stuff you sometimes see. I now store urls as the 'encoded' variant all the time, and only convert to the pretty version when the user sees it. this improves support for weird URLs and simplifies some behind the scenes. you do not need to do anything, and everything should work pretty much as before, but there is a chance some particularly funky URLs will redownload one more time if your subscription runs into them again (this change breaks some 'known url' checking logic, since what is stored is now slightly different, but this 99% doesn't affect Post URLs, so no big worries)
    so, while URLs still show pretty in a file/search log, if you copy them to clipboard, you now get the encoded version--pretty much how your web browser address bar works. I have made it show 'pretty' in the file log and search log lists, 'copy url' menu labels, and hyperlink tooltips, but in the more technical 'manage url classes' and 'manage GUGs' and so on where you are actually editing a URL, it shows the encoded version. let me know if I have forgotten to display them pretty anywhere!
    IF YOU ARE AN ADVANCED USER WHO MAKES CRAZY URL CLASSES: since URLs are now stored as the %-encoded version in all cases, component and parameter tests now apply to %-encoding (e.g. you are now testing for post%5Bid%5D, not post[id]). when your URL Classes update this week, I convert existing path component defaults, parameter names and defaults, and fixed_text String Matches for path component names and parameter values to their %-encoded value. I hope this will provide for a clean transition where it matters. unfortunately, if the String Matches were a regex or you were pulling a rabbit out of your hat with edge-case pre-%-encoded default values, I just can't auto-convert that, so please scroll down your crazier URL Classes and see if any say they don't match their example URLs!
    there's also some GUG work. when you enter a query text like male/female or blonde_hair%20blue_eyes, some new logic tries to infer whether what you entered is pre-encoded or not. it should handle pretty much everything well unless you have a single-tag query with a legit percent character in the middle (in which case you'll have to enter %25 instead, but we'll see if it ever happens)
    these changes simplify the url parsing routine, eliminating plenty of nonsense hackery I've inserted over the years to make things like 6+girls blonde_hair/6%2Bgirls+blonde_hair work with a merged system. this has mostly been a delicate cleanup job; long planned, finally triggered

    allow all ephemeral parameters:

    URL Classes have a new checkbox, 'keep extra parameters for server', which will determine whether URLs should hang on to undefined parameters in the first stage of normalisation, which governs what is sent to the server. this is now default True on all new URL Classes! existing URL Classes will default True only if the URL Class is a Gallery/Watchable URL without an API/redirect converter (which was essentially the previous hardcoded behaviour). you cannot set this value if the URL has an API/redirect converter

    allow specific ephemeral parameters:

    alternately, you can now specify single 'ephemeral token' parameters in the new parameter edit dialog. it is just a check box that says 'use this for the request, but don't save it'. these are kept for the API/redirect URL
    if you are feeling extremely big brain, there is now a String Processor for the default value, if both 'is ephemeral?' is checked and 'default value' is not 'None'. this lets you append/replace your fixed default value with the current time, or, now, just some random hex or something! hence we can now define our own basic one-time token generators for telling caches to give us original quality etc...

    manage url classes dialog:

    there's a new read-only text field with the 'example url' and 'normalised url' section called 'request url'. this shows either the example URL with its extra, ephemeral parameters, or it will show the API/redirect URL. it shows what will be sent to the server
    URL Class parameters now have their own edit panel, with everything available in one place, rather than the three-dialogs-in-a-row mess of before. also, the name and value widgets have locked normal/%-encoded text inputs that will live update each other, so you can paste whatever is convenient for you and see a preview either way
    URL Class path components also have their own edit panel. same deal as for parameters, but a little simpler

    client api:

    the /add_urls/get_url_info command now returns request_url value, which is either the 'for server' normalised URL, which may include ephemeral tokens, or the API/redirect URL, just as in the new 'manage url classes' dialog
    the /add_files/undelete_files command now filters the files you give it to make sure that they are actually in your file storage. no more undeleting files you don't have!
    added a new /add_files/clear_file_deletion_record command, which erases deletion records for physically deleted files
    updated api help docs and unit tests for the above
    client api version is now 63

    boring stuff:

    the client is now much more robust if any of its URL Classes do not match their own example URLs. it will boot, to start with (lol), and you can now open the 'manage url classes' dialog without UI error popups. manage url classes now notes which URL Classes do not match their own example URLs, for easy skimming
    the 'URL Class' class has a new buddy 'Parameter' class to handle param testing
    simplified some of the guts of URL normalisation, from path/param clipping to how API URL generation is navigated
    rewrote how the query string of a URL is deconstructed and scanned against your parameters. less chance of edge-case errors/merges and easier to expand in future
    when you paste a URL, some new normalisation tech tries to figure out if it is pre-encoded or not
    brushed up the URL Class unit test
