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.

    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)

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
