A licence that repeats vault keys no longer sends an empty InsertKeys, --cdm-only no longer logs "Cached N Keys to 0/0 Vaults", and a key two tracks both licensed counts once.
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.
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.
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.
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.
A dead proxy, or one that exits from this machine's IP, now fails with INVALID_PROXY instead of retrying every request; remote session create also builds the service off the event loop so a stuck check cannot block the server.
A service that picks its auth path in init could only check the server's cookies directory, so a client-sent jar was invisible and the service fell back to the wrong path. The ctx now carries cookies_supplied, and a malformed cookie blob answers 400 instead of 500.
Only the first WRM header was read and licensed, so a manifest carrying several headers silently lost content keys. Collect KIDs from every header and license each distinct one until coverage is complete.
Assert that a probe is judged on the trailing tick, that a backoff is temporary and climbs back to the cap, and that a worker always finds its next segment staged. Documents adaptive-workers behaviour in the downloading guide.
Check a sequential download against the complete length whenever one is known, and settle the unknown-total case on the 416. An empty body of unknown length, a 206 with no complete length, and a 206 starting past the resume offset all passed the size checks before and were renamed into place. Four restart paths spent no attempt, so a host that always answered the same way cycled forever.
Handlers share one service instance, so a per-session lock keeps two requests out of it at once. Track threads merge and write job state under one lock, and the progress sink coalesces ticks that say the same thing.
One service needed session_id in its license call, which a near-duplicate of get_content_keys supplied behind a service-tag test. service_licence now passes each service only the arguments its own license function declares, so the duplicate and the branch are gone. The REST API license paths and the base PlayReady delegate get the same filtering, replacing their fixed argument set.
Two behaviour changes ride along: an empty license challenge now raises EmptyLicense for every service, not just the one, and a service that declares only challenge now receives a working call instead of a TypeError.
Route titles with a dtsx/dtsy sample entry to MP4 via MP4Box, since Matroska has no CodecID for DTS-UHD. Add per-rendition HLS audio codec selection, fix merge_segments progress and its cleanup path.
Init segments now carry dvcC/dvvC with a profile-keyed sample entry and the dby1 brand; track ids cover the manifest URL so per-range ladders stop colliding, and the remote path carries the Atmos flag without inventing a JOC count.
Add serve.services_refresh_interval; refresh pulls the repos and re-imports only the changed services, staging any with active jobs until they finish. Report skipped/broken services in the log and on /api/services.
Uppercase entries in ALIASES never resolved, because get_tag lowercased the input but not the alias. Match real tags first so a service's own tag cannot be taken by another service's alias.
A song skips the muxer, so the decrypted fragmented MP4 was the delivered file: its header states a length of zero and FLAC in an MP4 is not a FLAC stream, so playback stopped early and tagging failed.
Grow the service session pool to downloads * workers before track downloads, run mkvmerge jobs concurrently (muxing.concurrency, default 4), lock DRM preparation per key set instead of globally, and query local vaults first then remote vaults together.
get_services() normalised table names through Services.get_tag() and then handed the result back as an identifier, so kv copy and sync skipped any table whose name differed in case or matched an alias. Yield stored names, and resolve tables case-insensitively.
Delete the dead grouped-download block, the planner, and the music service hooks; Song now flows through the one download loop, gets tagged via tag_file, and answers -w with {disc}x{track} keys.
BREAKING CHANGE: GROUP_AUDIO_DOWNLOADS, get_music_track_options and get_music_collection_label are gone. A music service returns one Audio track per quality and lets the framework choose.
