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

Changelog

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
Improved misc window destruction code
Updated supported mime list in 'getting started with files' help and website index
Misc cleanup

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

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.

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

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
