Remove only control characters in unicode mode. A mark after a zero width joiner or a digit was still dropped (#161). In ASCII mode a decomposed title now transliterates like the composed one.
Names change for titles with combining marks, compatibility ideographs or decomposed spellings, so an existing library can get a second folder.
A remote client that passes --cdm, has a cdm entry for the service that named the loaded device, or sets server_cdm: false now declines the server CDM at session create, and warns when the server keeps it. A service option listed in SERVER_DEVICE_OPTIONS keeps the server CDM.
Failed jobs now keep the worker's traceback, error_details and error_code instead of the "Worker exited" wrapper. error_traceback and worker_stderr only reach API clients under --debug-api.
A bare query skips a failing provider and errors when none answers; an unknown prefix such as us:seattle fails with a hint. The REST path now loads WindscribeVPN.
Basic, NordVPN, Windscribe, Gluetun and Hola no longer raise on a query they cannot serve. Hola parses stdout only and reports a ban; NordVPN cities use the API filter; uk maps to gb.
Relay the service's CDM calls to the client, accept the service's allowed identity config (for example ESN/Kpe/Kph), add the server_vault grant and a lent server-device mode that reads keys only from vaults and returns no login cache. Also fixes the proxied certificate fetch, Base64 Widevine licences, an answered call that stayed pending and a missing default quality.
/api/dashboard/services and the /status count now use serve.services, else the union of serve.users services lists; ?all=1 lists every installed service.
A session above the cap licenses with the client's own device, and a track above it in an uncapped -q run is handed back to the client. Also names the fallback in the ccextractor crash warning.
Titles, tracks and licence stream a newline every 30s until the body is ready, so a slow service outlasts the client timeout and proxy idle limits; add a per-server timeout.
Runs a loopback forwarder per region-named profile (unshackle-<region>), so
--proxy and --proxy-download can exit in different countries

Remote sessions now carry -l/-vl/-al/-a/-fs under a nested dl_params, so services fetch the requested audio versions. Server-account tokens for non-default accounts move from default to the account name, so each account logs in once after upgrade.
A client with a local PlayReady device asked the server for a PlayReady licence on a service the server maps to a Widevine device. Both server_cdm routes now share one candidate list from one config lookup, report the system that licensed in drm_type, and the client adopts it.
A staged tag was only retried on the refresh tick or a job completion, so a service with steady remote sessions never swapped in. Session end, expiry and eviction now trigger a single-flight apply, the tick applies after the pull, and serve.services_staged_max_age swaps an overdue tag in even while busy.
RollingMerge takes the segment path and an append hook. ISM synthesises the init from segment 0 and converts PIFF per fragment; HLS qualifies only with one init, one key and no discontinuity. Both parsers check the merge reached every segment, and resume is decided per track.
Opt-in rolling merge for DASH video and audio: each contiguous segment is appended to the output as it lands, so the post-download "Merging" stage goes away. Decrypts the init segment eagerly when decrypt_segments is on, disables resume for the track, and skips subtitle tracks.
Build the failure context through the title's template builder with an empty MediaInfo, and blank season_episode, absolute and date in season mode. Document {part} and add a docs-to-code parity test.
The importer builds subtitle tracks from track rows that carry a url, which the format promised and no reader did. The writer keeps a conflicting KID instead of overwriting it, identifies a manifest by its whole URL, writes subtitle rows as srt or vtt rather than enum names, and survives an export file it cannot read.
--export writes the mediaexport format with DRM, content keys and manifests at title level, and unshackle's own track dicts under x-unshackle. unshackle import reads mediaexport, unidl v1 and unshackle v2 through the shared reader, applies the export's request headers to the import session, and rebuilds DRM from the title-level pool. mediaexport is a git dependency on unshackle-dl/mediaexport.
Cache keys are now the path relative to the service cache dir without .json, so Cacher keys like session_web/<sha1> reach the remote session. The credential filter runs on every path segment, the suffix is appended rather than substituted, and both sides cap the map at 64 keys.
Map each KID to its fragments from the ciphertext moov/moof (tenc, seig, ISM duration clock) and decode up to three windows per KID that never cross into another KID, so a clear lead cannot hide a wrong key and only the failing KID is flagged. Decode every frame (wrong-key HEVC keyframes decode clean), re-judge mid-GOP starts on keyframes, time out every FFmpeg run, and refuse to store a flagged pair again in SQLite.
--acodec now lists its codecs in --help, --vcodec drops the duplicate entries, and the REST API derives its allowlists from the same types, so AC-4, DDP, VORB and sub_format "original" stop being rejected and H264 stops being silently dropped. Adds shell completion for --acodec and repairs MultipleChoice completion. Raises the click floor to 8.2.
Answered login prompts and uploaded cache now count as client auth; the client closes on exit and keeps the remote session alive during long downloads.
Regions in GEOBLOCK refuse the service and everything else is allowed. A hit stops the run with a region error instead of auto-proxying; the check also covers proxy exits and the remote-dl client region.
Manifest, licence and auth stay on --proxy; track, subtitle and attachment downloads use the second proxy. Also exposed as proxy_download on the REST download job with the same server_proxy gate. The download session now ignores HTTP(S)_PROXY and copies rnet cookies set by name.
The licence response lists KIDs a server vault supplied, the client proves them with the decode check, and a bad pair goes to the new session keys/bad route so the server flags its own row. Client vault keys go first over --remote, and the dashboard health warns when no SQLite vault can store flags.
Verify a vault-sourced key with an FFmpeg decode after decryption. On failure flag the KID:KEY locally with its source, restore the ciphertext, and retry through the remaining vaults and then the CDM.
Rules took only a scalar, so the documented list syntax raised LanguageTagError after the mux. Normalise every condition, treat an invalid tag as no match, guard the surrounding post-mux config reads, and let a rule match dual, multi and dubbed so a release can carry its own tag.
