- Updated the `generate_dummy_programs` function to include `export_lookback` and `export_cutoff` parameters, allowing for more precise control over the EPG data generation window.
- Added a new test case to verify that future events are correctly represented in the grid window, ensuring upcoming fillers are displayed as expected.
- Moved the `programme_index` from the `EPGSource` model to a new `EPGSourceIndex` table, ensuring that the large JSON blob is only loaded when explicitly accessed, thus improving query performance and memory efficiency.
- Updated related queries and API views to utilize the new structure, including adjustments to EPG generation and import logic to prevent unnecessary data loading.
- Enhanced memory management in the EPG grid endpoint to reduce worker RSS during response handling.
- Streamlined `generate_epg()` to incrementally stream EPG data without loading the entire guide, improving memory efficiency.
- Reduced database load by deferring the fetching of large `programme_index` blobs, enhancing response times for EPG generation.
- Introduced a composite index on `(epg_id, id)` in `ProgramData` to optimize query performance during EPG exports.
- Updated tests to ensure proper functionality and performance of new features.
- Implemented robust DB connection management in `refresh_epg_data` to handle transient errors, ensuring reliable status updates for EPG sources.
- Added retry logic for database queries and improved error handling to prevent task failures from unhandled exceptions.
- Updated EPG source status handling to ensure accurate reporting of errors and terminal states during refresh operations.
- Introduced a temporary staging table for efficient batch processing of EPG program inserts, reducing memory and I/O contention during updates.
- Enhanced the `parse_programs_for_source` function to stream parsed rows into the staging table before swapping them atomically into the main program data.
- Added unit tests to validate the new staging and swapping logic, ensuring existing programs are preserved during failures and that batch processing works as intended.
- Replaced individual EPG program parse tasks with a centralized dispatch function to streamline guide refresh for newly assigned EPG IDs.
- Implemented batching for guide fetches when multiple EPGs are mapped, reducing redundant API calls and improving efficiency.
- Updated related utility functions to support the new fetching strategy and added tests to ensure correct behavior under various scenarios.
- Implemented a targeted guide fetch for Schedules Direct when mapping a channel, ensuring immediate data availability without redundant API calls.
- Updated EPG signals to queue guide fetches for newly mapped channels, streamlining the process and improving user experience.
- Refactored existing logic to skip unnecessary program refreshes for dummy sources and ensure proper handling of Schedules Direct data.
- Added unit tests to validate the new fetching behavior and ensure robustness of the integration.
- Added functions to compute schedule changes based on MD5 hashes and backfill missing dates for mapped stations.
- Enhanced handling of orphaned ProgramData records for unmapped EPG entries during schedule fetch.
- Introduced unit tests to validate MD5 comparison, backfill logic, and metadata fetching requirements.
- Introduced `dispatcharr_user_agent`, `dispatcharr_dvr_user_agent`, and `dispatcharr_http_headers` functions in `core.utils` to standardize User-Agent strings and HTTP headers for outbound requests.
- Updated various components, including `LogoViewSet`, `EPGSourceViewSet`, and VOD proxy views, to utilize the new header functions, ensuring consistent User-Agent usage across the application.
- Enhanced the handling of Schedules Direct API requests by including proper User-Agent headers, addressing previous API compliance issues.
- Introduced a new method `_fetch_sd_countries` in `EPGSourceViewSet` to fetch SD countries directly from the backend, eliminating the need for a separate proxy endpoint.
- Updated the `sd_lineups` action to include the fetched countries in the response.
- Removed the `getSDCountries` method from the API and adjusted the frontend to fetch countries alongside lineups, improving efficiency
- Updated related components to handle the new data structure for countries.
- Addressed a bug where the EPG channel list did not refresh after a source finished parsing channels due to the `epg_refresh` WebSocket handler using a stale snapshot. The handler now correctly reads the current store state and ensures `fetchEPGData()` is called upon completion of channel parsing.
- Updated tests to verify that the frontend receives the correct parsing completion signals.
Add support for automatically applying channel logos from EPG data during refresh. Introduce a new toggle in the UI for enabling/disabling this feature, and update the backend to handle both channel IDs and EPG source IDs for logo application. Enhance the logo application task to process large libraries efficiently in chunks, improving performance and memory usage. Update changelog to reflect these changes.
Remove the _sd_send_ws_sync function and replace its usage with send_epg_update in the fetch_schedules_direct function. This change simplifies the code by ensuring all WebSocket updates are sent through a single function, improving maintainability and consistency in handling EPG updates.
Introduce a new poster style selection feature in the EPG settings, allowing users to choose their preferred artwork style. Update the logic for fetching and displaying program artwork from Schedules Direct, ensuring that the selected style is honored with appropriate fallbacks. Set default poster art to 'primary'. Add comprehensive tests to validate the poster selection functionality across various scenarios.
Add a new task to fetch program artwork from Schedules Direct and auto-apply logos to channels based on EPG data. Enhance the existing logic to handle poster backfill and update program records with fetched artwork. Readd the WebSocket handler to manage IP lookup events and adjust the EPGsTable component to display relevant credentials based on the source type.
Update the variable name in the EPG settings to better reflect its purpose. Adjust related logic in the UI to ensure consistent handling of the auto-apply feature for SD logos.
Build absolute poster proxy URLs via build_absolute_uri_with_port so
program detail images resolve correctly in dev and behind reverse
proxies. Backfill sd_icon for programs when poster fetch is enabled
but a delta refresh skips program metadata. Add a dev-mode frontend
fallback for relative image paths and correct the poster caching
description in the SD settings UI.
Add User-Agent header to API requests in ProgramViewSet for better tracking. Update cast processing logic in fetch_schedules_direct to align with XMLTV standards, ensuring proper categorization of main cast and guest stars.
ProgramViewSet.get_permissions() was falling through to Authenticated()
for the poster action since it wasn't in permission_classes_by_action.
Add explicit AllowAny check for the poster action.
Add content_advisory, content_ratings, event_details, runtime to
ProgramDetailSerializer. Display content advisory, sports venue/teams,
and first-aired date in ProgramDetailModal.
- Replace per-entry ProgramData DB query with single batch fetch
- Pass pre-loaded EPGData objects to find_current_program_for_tvg_id
to avoid redundant select_related re-fetch
- Delete Redis programme index before XMLTV download so stale byte
offsets are never used during the refresh window
When selecting an EPG channel in the channel form, if that EPG entry's
programs had never been parsed, the preview showed "No current program".
This was because parse_programs_for_tvg_id requires a linked channel.
- Add force parameter to parse_programs_for_tvg_id to bypass channel check
- Auto-trigger parsing from current-programs API when no programs exist
- Check Redis task lock to prevent duplicate parse tasks from concurrent requests
- Frontend retries up to 3 times with 10s delay to pick up parsed results
- Skip parsing for dummy EPG sources
- Extended CurrentProgramsAPIView to accept epg_data_ids parameter
- Added getCurrentProgramForEpg() API method in frontend
- Added UI in Channel form showing current program with tooltip
- Shows loading state, no program state, and program details
- Includes expandable description, progress bar with elapsed/remaining time
- Matches stats page 'Now Playing' feature behavior
