- Switch engine to postgresql_psycopg3 (PR had wrong engine name,
and we're migrating from psycopg2 to psycopg3 as part of this work)
- Set CONN_MAX_AGE=0 (required by geventpool; PR had None)
- Reduce MAX_CONNS 20→8, REUSE_CONNS 10→3 to avoid exhausting
pg max_connections across 4 uWSGI workers + Celery
- Add pool=False to explicitly disable Django's native psycopg3 pool
get_vod_streams on XC providers supplies director, cast/actors and
release_date for each movie, but process_movie_batch was only persisting
trailer in custom_properties. As a result those fields were always empty
in Dispatcharr's own get_vod_info / provider-info responses even when
the upstream provider returned correct data.
Changes:
- Extract director, actors (also mapped from 'cast') and release_date
from movie_data during the batch-import phase and store them in
custom_properties alongside the existing trailer field.
- Fix the update path to merge incoming custom_properties into the
existing dict (using {**existing, **incoming}) rather than overwriting
it wholesale, so that detailed_info and other keys written by the
advanced refresh task are preserved across subsequent basic syncs.

Channel.get_stream_profile() read self.stream_profile directly, bypassing
the override system. The override-aware property effective_stream_profile_obj
already existed and called _resolve_effective_fk('stream_profile') which
correctly picks override.stream_profile when set, but nothing in the
streaming path called it.
As a result, a per-channel 'Stream Profile' override saved through the UI
was visible in the channel edit form (yellow pencil indicator appeared) but
silently ignored at stream time — Dispatcharr always used the global default
profile regardless of what was configured per-channel.
Fix: call effective_stream_profile_obj in get_stream_profile() so that all
callers (live proxy url_utils, input manager, views) automatically pick up
channel-level overrides without any further changes.

removePlaylists() filtered the playlists array but never removed the
corresponding entries from the profiles map (the @TODO left since the
store was introduced). Any component reading profiles[id] after
deletion would get undefined and crash with
'undefined is not an object (evaluating P[R].name)'.
Fix: build a copy of profiles with the deleted IDs removed and include
it in the state update alongside the filtered playlists array.

The provider-info endpoints for both series and movies always returned
data from the highest-priority relation, ignoring the provider the user
had selected in the dropdown. Switching sources in the UI produced no
change in the episode list or movie details.
Root cause: the endpoints had no support for a relation_id query param,
and the frontend never passed one when the user changed the selection.
Fix (backend):
- series provider-info: accept ?relation_id=<id> and query that specific
M3USeriesRelation; fall back to highest-priority when omitted
- movie provider-info: same treatment for M3UMovieRelation
Fix (frontend):
- api.getSeriesInfo / api.getMovieProviderInfo accept an optional
relationId argument and append it to the query string
- useVODStore.fetchSeriesInfo / fetchMovieDetailsFromProvider forward
the argument to the API layer
- SeriesModal.onChangeSelectedProvider re-fetches series info (episodes
included) with the newly selected relation's id
- VODModal.onChangeSelectedProvider re-fetches movie details with the
newly selected relation's id

- Channel resolution: resolve by Channel.id first (what the XC API emits
to clients), fall back to provider stream_id for backward compatibility.
Fixes 404 on all timeshift requests from XC clients.
- Stream management: timeshift is now a first-class citizen alongside live
and VOD in the stream-limits system. get_user_active_connections()
detects type='timeshift', attempt_stream_termination() sets a Redis
stop key (same pattern as VOD), and the timeshift view calls
check_user_stream_limits() before connecting upstream. The stream
generator checks the stop key every 100 chunks. Fixes infinite retry
loops on max_connections=1 providers for live→timeshift and
timeshift→timeshift transitions.
- Streaming: replaced HTTPStreamReader thread+pipe with direct
iter_content+yield (same pattern as VOD proxy). The pipe approach
deadlocked under gevent because the reader thread's select() competed
with the greenlet's pipe read for hub scheduling. Throughput went
from ~74 B/s to 13+ MB/s.
- TS preamble: peek now strips pre-sync bytes (PHP warnings, BOM) before
prepending to the stream, preventing corrupt TS output.
- Credential safety: _redact_url() now truncates to scheme://host/...
to avoid leaking XC path-based credentials in logs.
- Tests: updated 5 tests that referenced the removed HTTPStreamReader.
21/21 timeshift tests pass.
- Migration: fixed SyntaxWarning for unescaped regex in 0038.
Adds native catch-up/timeshift replay for Xtream Codes providers through
the same HTTPStreamReader transport pipeline as live TV.
Timeshift proxy (apps/timeshift/):
- URL cascade: 3 candidate timestamp formats per provider, per-account
format cache for fast-forward seek performance
- MPEG-TS preamble stripping (shared with HTTPStreamReader)
- Stats integration: timeshift viewers appear on /stats with TIMESHIFT badge
- Auth via hmac.compare_digest on XC password
Catchup detection — denormalized for zero-cost output queries:
- Stream.is_catchup + Stream.catchup_days populated at XC import time
- Channel.has_catchup + Channel.catchup_days + Channel.catchup_provider_stream_id
rolled up via ChannelStream post_save signal (UI path) and explicit SQL
after bulk_create (import path)
- _xc_channel_entry() reads denormalized fields instead of per-channel
custom_properties JSON introspection (eliminates N+1 queries)
- Migration 0038 backfills existing data via raw SQL
XC API enhancements:
- server_info.timezone + start/end + time_now use configured timezone
(triple consistency rule — fixes wrong-programme-plays bug)
- Dynamic has_archive flag + auto prev_days for catch-up channels
- XMLTV timestamps rewritten to local timezone for catch-up clients
HTTPStreamReader extended (apps/proxy/live_proxy/input/http_streamer.py):
- 1 MB pipe buffer via fcntl F_SETPIPE_SZ (eliminates producer/consumer
ping-pong that halved throughput)
- Pre-opened response= for URL cascade workflows
- strip_ts_preamble= for XC servers emitting PHP warnings before TS
- find_ts_sync() as shared utility
- Builds on upstream O_NONBLOCK + select() write loop
Provider stream_id lookup order:
- stream_xc() and xc_get_epg() try internal Channel.id first, fall back
to provider stream_id only when needed (avoids unconditional query on
every request)
Also includes:
- VOD provider cascade in stream_vod() — iterates all M3U relations by
priority when first provider is at capacity
- Defensive null-safety: custom_sid: None → "" in get_live_streams,
get_vod_streams, get_vod_info, get_series_info (fixes iPlayTV crash on
JSON null for string fields)
- Timeshift settings UI (timezone selector, debug toggle)
- StreamConnectionCard violet TIMESHIFT badge
- Orphan cleanup skips timeshift_* virtual channels
Drop auto-fingerprint migration and restore per-profile selection for live/VOD.
Enforce shared limits on reserve using login-scoped group counters, and add
Server Groups UI for manual account assignment per maintainer feedback (#1137).

Bug Fix: The plugin detail endpoint called GPG via `subprocess.Popen` to verify per-plugin manifest signatures. Replaced with a `_gpg_run()` helper that uses `os.posix_spawn`, matching the pattern used by the ffmpeg and script-handler fixes.
Tests were asserting fetchActiveChannelStats/getVODStats were called twice
on mount, encoding React strict mode's double-invoke behavior rather than
testing actual application logic. Update all affected call count assertions
to reflect the correct single-fetch behavior.
