by_language now applies RFC 4647 Lookup in exact mode, preferring the string-equal tag so --exact-lang separates base/regional pairs (ar/ar-EG, en/en-US) instead of collapsing them, and dedupes by id to prevent the duplicate-track-id crash. Adds a language-selection regression test.
Merge cues at the string level instead of round-tripping through
pycaption, which dropped inline tags and cue settings. STYLE and
REGION blocks are kept, duplicate boundary cues splice correctly,
and a bad timing line now skips the cue instead of crashing.
Also rank pysubs2 above SubtitleEdit for ASS to TTML/VTT since
SubtitleEdit flattens inline styling there. Documented the measured
backend fidelity table and added regression tests for the merge.
Upstream migrated the free IMDxAPI from imdbapi.dev to api.tiffara.com.
Endpoints and JSON schema are unchanged, so only BASE_URL and the
user-facing docs/docstrings needed updating.
- Define keep_* flags early in the track selection loop to accurately trace which track types (video, audio, subs, chapters) should be kept.
- Guard specific track filtering and validation blocks in dl.py using keep_* variables.
- Prevent fatal 'not found in video/audio/subtitle tracks' errors when using skip options like --no-video (-nv) or --no-subs (-ns).
- Simplify and clean up the trailing track cleanup logic to rely on the pre-determined keep_* flags.
Share one best-audio selector across the episode and music paths so best/all works for songs, descriptive audio is capped to one track, and codec_priority is honored. Guard --channels and 16:9 canvas math against tracks missing channel/width metadata. Extend --best-available to video languages and full resolution misses in both normal and hybrid mode, and count only deliverable ranges when reporting missing resolutions. Rank video by resolution before bitrate, and trim group audio selections to one track per song with a warning.
BREAKING CHANGE: a missing resolution with -r HYBRID now errors without --best-available, matching non-hybrid behavior.
superseded racers now exit on the next network arrival and the pool
waits for them on clean completion, so Windows can delete stray .!dev
files at merge time (WinError 32)
Swap cookie/PKCE auth for the OAuth 2.0 device authorization grant with a cached rotating refresh token. Fix the connection-token key (`cat`) and move the cache to {cache}/vpn/ to match ProtonVPN.
BREAKING CHANGE: cookie-file auth removed; run once with `enable: true` to approve a device code.
Optional ranking of forced/normal/sdh per language, mirroring audio.codec_priority; first track gets the default flag, so this also picks the default subtitle. Unset = existing behavior.
Bind sessions and download jobs to the API key (not source IP), reject path-traversal cache keys, bound decompression of peer-supplied blobs, gate the CDM device before the vault fallback, and compare API keys in constant time.
Persistent job history (capped by serve.history_limit, stored under cache), profiles/config reads, maintenance + env-check endpoints, and 409 conflict code.
Optional Episode.air_date names daily/sports content by date instead of SxxExx (no template change). Presentation-only; `{year}` dropped only when it duplicates the date's year. Round-trips via export/import.
Short-circuit merge() to os.replace() when joining one already-merged file with no init prefix; saves a full track-size copy, falls back to streamed copy across devices.
