Introduce a RepairWorker to scan the transfer folder and automatically detect/repair broken album track numbers (e.g. the "all tracks = 01" bug). The worker uses mutagen to read/write tags, fuzzy-matches titles against an album tracklist (Spotify/iTunes via a SpotifyClient), updates filenames and the tracks DB file_path when renamed, and caches album tracklists. It also adds DB schema support (repair_status, repair_last_checked, and an index).
Integrates the worker into the web server: initializes and starts the worker, and exposes /api/repair/status, /api/repair/pause and /api/repair/resume endpoints. Adds UI elements (button, tooltip), client-side JS to poll and control the worker, CSS for visuals/animations, and a new image asset (whisoul.png).
Add Deezer as a third metadata enrichment source. Enriches tracks with BPM and explicit flags, albums with
record labels, explicit flags, and type classification (album/single/EP), and backfills artwork and genres across
all entities. Includes background worker with priority queue, rate-limited API client, database migration, server
endpoints, and UI button with purple-themed status tooltip.
Integrated TheAudioDB as a metadata enrichment source. A background worker scans the library in priority order (artists → albums → tracks), matching entities via fuzzy name comparison and storing style, mood, and AudioDB IDs. Includes rate limiting, 30-day retry for not-found items, and a UI tooltip showing phase-based scan progress.
- Add global discovery_match_cache table to cache successful track matches
(title+artist+provider -> matched result) across all discovery sources
- Cache check before API search in YouTube, ListenBrainz, Tidal, and Beatport
discovery workers; cache write after high-confidence matches
- Re-discovering playlists or overlapping tracks across sources skips API lookups
- Fix Spotify tab sidebar forcing 2-column grid on mobile via inline JS styles
- Add mobile responsive styles for Spotify playlist cards (stack layout vertically)
Enrich downloaded audio files with external identifiers and improved genre metadata in a single post-processing write. During metadata enhancement, the app now looks up the MusicBrainz recording and artist MBIDs, retrieves the ISRC and MusicBrainz genres from a follow-up detail lookup, merges them with Spotify's artist-level genres (deduplicated, capped at 5), and embeds everything alongside the Spotify/iTunes track, artist, and album IDs. All MusicBrainz API calls are serialized through the existing global rate limiter, making concurrent download workers safe without needing to pause the background worker. Includes a database migration adding Spotify/iTunes ID columns to the library tables.
MusicBrainz library enrichment with real-time
status monitoring and manual control.

- Artist matching progress with percentage
- Click-to-toggle pause/resume functionality
- Auto-polling every 2 seconds for live updates
Backend Changes:
- Added GET /api/musicbrainz/status endpoint
- Added POST /api/musicbrainz/pause endpoint
- Added POST /api/musicbrainz/resume endpoint
- Worker tracks current_item for UI display
- get_stats() returns enhanced status data
Frontend Changes:

- Premium CSS styling with animations
- JavaScript polling and state management
- Positioned tooltip below button with centered arrow
Files Modified:
- web_server.py: API endpoints and worker initialization
- core/musicbrainz_worker.py: current_item tracking
- webui/index.html: Button and tooltip structure
- webui/static/style.css: Complete styling (240 lines)
- webui/static/script.js: Polling and interaction logic (115 lines)
Merge split album entries (e.g. Navidrome assigning different IDs to the same album) by grouping on title+year instead of album ID, so track counts are correctly combined across all entries. Also add a minimum title similarity floor (0.6) to prevent a perfect artist match from carrying unrelated albums over the confidence threshold.
- Expose suffix, bitRate, and path fields on NavidromeTrack from the Subsonic API response
- Add fallback in insert_or_update_media_track() to populate file_path and bitrate for Navidrome tracks, fixing the Quality Scanner
returning 0 results
- Increase ListenBrainz playlist cache limit from 4 to 25 per type
- Add sub-tab grouping in the Recommendations tab (Weekly Jams, Weekly Exploration, Top Discoveries, etc.)
When Spotify is enabled after populating similar artists with only iTunes IDs, the freshness check now detects missing Spotify IDs and triggers a refetch. This fixes the Discover page not showing data when switching from iTunes-only mode.
- Add similar artists fetching to web UI scan loop
- Add database migration for UNIQUE constraint on similar_artists table - Add source-agnostic /api/discover/album endpoint for iTunes support
- Fix NOT NULL constraint on discovery_recent_albums blocking iTunes albums
- Add fallback to watchlist artists when no similar artists exist
- Add /api/discover/refresh and /api/discover/diagnose endpoints
- Add retry logic with exponential backoff for iTunes API calls
- Ensure cache_discovery_recent_albums runs even when pool population skips
Adds iTunes fallback to SpotifyClient for search and metadata when Spotify is not authenticated. Updates album type logic to distinguish EPs, singles, and albums more accurately. Refactors watchlist database methods to support both Spotify and iTunes artist IDs. Improves deduplication and normalization of album names from iTunes. Updates web server and frontend to use new album type logic and support both ID types. Adds artist bubble snapshot example data.
Introduces iTunes artist ID support to WatchlistArtist and database schema, enabling proactive backfilling of missing provider IDs (Spotify/iTunes) for watchlist artists. Updates WatchlistScanner to use MetadataService for provider-agnostic scanning and ID matching, and modifies web_server to support scans with either provider. Includes new database migration and update methods for iTunes and Spotify artist IDs.
Introduces new filters for live versions, remixes, acoustic versions, and compilation albums to the watchlist artist configuration. Updates the database schema, backend API, and web UI to support these options, allowing users to customize which content types are included for each artist in their watchlist.
Updated the normalization logic to only remove metadata markers that do not indicate different recordings (e.g., 'radio edit', 'remaster'), while preserving markers like 'live', 'remix', 'acoustic', and 'instrumental' that represent distinct versions. This improves matching accuracy by ensuring only equivalent recordings are compared, delegating version differentiation to the matching engine.
Expanded and refined the noise and version marker removal in _clean_track_title_for_comparison to better normalize track titles. This improves matching by handling more cases such as edits, remasters, live versions, soundtracks, and various collaboration markers.
Enhances artist name matching by including diacritic-normalized variations, allowing names like 'Subcarpaţi' to match 'Subcarpati' in SQL LIKE queries. This addresses issue #101 and improves search robustness.
Added normalized string comparison for album titles to better handle diacritics, addressing issue #101. Also logs when normalization improves matching accuracy.
Enhanced normalization by using _matching_engine when available for both search input and database values. Improved album search by considering artist name variations and deduplicating results. Added a fallback mechanism to search all albums by artist to address SQL accent sensitivity issues, increasing robustness in album matching.
Updated Dockerfile, entrypoint.sh, and Python code to store database files in /app/data instead of /app/database, avoiding conflicts with the Python package. The database path is now configurable via the DATABASE_PATH environment variable, improving flexibility for container deployments.
Enhanced handling of artist data to support both string and object formats across the database, sync service, and web server. The sync process now preserves full album and artist objects for tracks, enabling wishlist additions with album cover art. The frontend and API were updated to use the full artist objects, and the UI now formats artist names correctly.
