 ### Fixed
 
+- Fixed VOD refresh failures caused by orphaned logo references: Added validation to detect and clear logo foreign key references when the logo no longer exists in the database, preventing "VODLogo matching query does not exist" errors. Also improved logo assignment logic to properly handle cases where logo URLs exist but logo creation fails, ensuring VOD content updates successfully even when logos are deleted or unavailable.
 - Fixed channel profile filtering to properly restrict content based on assigned channel profiles for all non-admin users (user_level < 10) instead of only streamers (user_level == 0). This corrects the XtreamCodes API endpoints (`get_live_categories` and `get_live_streams`) along with M3U and EPG generation, ensuring standard users (level 1) are properly restricted by their assigned channel profiles. Previously, "Standard" users with channel profiles assigned would see all channels instead of only those in their assigned profiles.
 - Fixed NumPy baseline detection in Docker entrypoint. Now calls `numpy.show_config()` directly with case-insensitive grep instead of incorrectly wrapping the output.
 - Fixed SettingsUtils frontend tests for new grouped settings architecture. Updated test suite to properly verify grouped JSON settings (stream_settings, dvr_settings, etc.) instead of individual CharField settings, including tests for type conversions, array-to-CSV transformations, and special handling of proxy_settings and network_access.
