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

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

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
