The server and the client both check a forwarded cache file before they write it, because Cacher decodes it with jsonpickle. The session-create cache write now runs off the event loop.
Click picks the subcommand before the dl callback applies the service config, so Services.resolve_command now applies remote and server first. A REST API job routes from its request only.
Relabel HEVC HDR10 tracks whose first fragment carries ST 2094-40 SEI as HDR10P, for dl, the REST API and remote sessions. Config key hdr10plus_probe (default true).
Builds per-scene L1 in unshackle (PQ mean, letterbox-aware) with a generate_dv_mode config (v29/v40/legacy); a failed hybrid no longer exits 0 with no video.
--proxy now overrides HTTP(S)_PROXY and the Windows system proxy while keeping the env CA bundle. Core fallback sessions use the run's proxy, and a warn-only audit hook names service code that sends a request or opens a raw socket outside the proxy; a session with proxy_exempt = True opts out.
The server CDM stub names only the manifest's KIDs; sibling keys stay content keys. API and HTTP vaults retry a 429, and a vault that is down or still rate limited costs one timeout per run.
A tag with a region (en-US, es-419) matches only that variant and reports a miss instead of taking another region. A bare tag takes the variant it means (pt -> pt-BR, es -> es-ES) and falls back to any variant only when that one is missing. `orig` prefers the title's own tag, `-sl orig` resolves, forced and SDH subtitles are picked from their own pools, and the track name no longer strips the region from the cached language.
BREAKING CHANGE: -l es-419 no longer selects es-ES, and language_priority, language_tags and muxing.default_language treat a regional tag as exact.
The remote-dl client sends exact_lang in dl_params, and REST download jobs set it in the service ctx, so a service can skip the manifests of close-match languages.
The first of the widevine / playready config keys in a cdm entry sets which device loads first and which DRM system licenses a track that offers the two. An entry that lists playready first changes from Widevine to PlayReady.
--sample downloads only a time window of a title (default 120-180 s) and cuts the mux to it. --include-sample cuts a 60 s sample from a finished file. Both write to a Sample folder with a SAMPLE tag on the filename
A service that sets the flag gets no cookie load, no authenticate() call and no cookie save on a search, on the CLI and in the REST search handler. /api/services reports it as anonymous_search.
A REST job shows a wait_for_approval message as its notice field. search, list-titles and list-tracks fail at once on a login that needs the user. A remote client downloads through the --proxy it sends.
Extract the serve validation and app config builder so startup and reload share them. A bad file or a restart-only change keeps the running config; open CDM sessions survive.
Each keeps one kind of track inside its track type. A run of more than one title skips a title that has no such track. The REST API rejects a non-boolean value for a boolean dl param, and the DASH parser reads audio description from Role elements.
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.
