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.

    [Changed]:

    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

Changelog

    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.

    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. This ensures that every movie list you see is meaningful and relevant.

    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
