- Compact numbering: resolve the source relation when an override stores channels under the target group, so hiding releases the slot, unhiding assigns one, and repack sees the channels (no more spurious RANGE_EXHAUSTED). Type-safe override match; the bulk path stays single-query on the common path.
- Channel form: keep the clear-override control available when an override's value equals the provider value (isFormFieldOverridden is now existence-aware).
- Tests: compact override hide/unhide/repack, no-override fast-path guard, repack query-scaling guard, and existence-aware override detection.
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.

- Enable gevent cooperative multitasking in all uWSGI worker configs
(gevent-early-monkey-patch + import dispatcharr.gevent_patch)
- Rewrite WebSocket group sends to bypass asyncio in gevent workers:
_gevent_ws_send() replicates the channels_redis 4.x wire format
directly via synchronous Redis so send_websocket_update() and
_send_async() no longer fail silently after epoll is patched out
- Fix PostgreSQL connection exhaustion: CONN_MAX_AGE=0 + explicit
close_old_connections() in stream manager and cleanup watchdog loops
- Fix stream proxy race: register client before the connect-wait loop
so the cleanup watchdog never sees zero clients on a live channel
- Channel list/logo/profile queryset optimisations: conditional DISTINCT,
EXISTS semi-joins for filter-options, channel_count annotation to
eliminate N+1 in LogoSerializer, prefetched memberships in
ChannelProfileSerializer
- JsonResponse for channel ID list and summary endpoints
- Added support for customizable title and description matching modes in series rules.
- Implemented a preview feature for series rules to show matching upcoming programs.
- Created a new SeriesRuleEditorModal for editing series rules with improved UI.
- Refactored query parsing logic into reusable functions for better maintainability.
- Updated API to handle new parameters for series rule creation and evaluation.
- Enhanced the ProgramRecordingModal and SeriesRecordingModal to integrate the new rule editor.
- Added pagination for program search results in the API.
- Scope regex previews to the M3U account being edited
- Empty-state message extended from "No streams in this group yet." to "No streams in this group yet. Run an M3U refresh first to populate streams."
Layered on top of the prior perf commits, removes additional per-row queries
Channel list (apps/channels): add auto_created_by to select_related so ChannelSerializer.get_auto_created_by_name does not fire one SELECT per row. Replace instance.streams.all().order_by(channelstream__order) in to_representation with a read off the prefetched channelstream_set.
M3U account list (apps/m3u): prefetch_related "filters" on the viewset queryset and sort filters in Python over the prefetch in M3UAccountSerializer.get_filters.
Frontend (EditableCell.jsx): align the saveValue useCallback dependency from [row.original.id] to [row.original] in the Number, Group, EPG, and Logo cells, matching the pattern applied to the Text cell.
The previous name suggested "hidden from a specific user account" rather than "hidden from downstream client output", which was the actual
behavior. The new name is unambiguous and matches the help_text language ("Exclude this channel from downstream client output").
Mechanical rename across the migration, model, serializer, signals, sync logic, output endpoints, frontend forms / tables / utils, tests, and CHANGELOG. 77 occurrences across 20 files.
No behavior change.
Per-field channel overrides for auto-synced channels, hide-from-output flag, range-bounded auto-numbering with re-pack, multi-stream channel safety, multi-provider shared-range merging, and an across-the-board move from per-row sync writes to bulk operations.

See CHANGELOG.md for the full commit log
- Replace ProgramData.id-based dedup with stable (tvg_id, start_time, end_time) key from Recording.custom_properties.program. ProgramData IDs change on every EPG refresh; the old dedup always passed after refresh, creating duplicates.
- Fix secondary timeslot guard to compare original program times (stored in custom_properties) instead of offset-adjusted Recording times. With DVR pre/post offsets configured, the old guard never matched.
- Add acquire_task_lock/release_task_lock to serialize concurrent evaluate_series_rules calls. Multiple EPG source refreshes firing evaluate_series_rules.delay() simultaneously raced to create duplicate recordings.
- Rewrite ghost client tests to call real ChannelStatus and ClientManager code paths instead of reimplementing detection logic in test helpers
- Rewrite initializing state tests to invoke StreamManager.run() so the real finally block executes under test
- Replace hardcoded state list tests with assertions against ChannelState.PRE_ACTIVE frozenset
- Add missing SOURCE_BITRATE and FFMPEG_BITRATE constants to ChannelMetadataField (referenced by channel_status.py but never defined, causing AttributeError on detailed stats)
- Add MAX_KEEPALIVE_DURATION = 300s to TSConfig
- Track keepalive_start_time in _stream_data_generator; disconnect after cap is exceeded with a warning log
- Reset timer on real data so independent stalls don't accumulate
- Fix pre-existing test helper missing throttle attributes in NonOwnerWorkerKeepaliveTests
- Write ERROR via ownership check OR state guard fallback when ownership TTL expired during retries
- Add INITIALIZING to cleanup task grace period monitoring
- Validate client SET entries against metadata hashes in orphaned channel cleanup; remove ghosts and clean up when no real clients remain
- Stats page self-heals by removing ghost SET entries on read
- Extract remove_ghost_clients() helper to ClientManager
- Add ChannelState.PRE_ACTIVE constant
- Fix 6 pre-existing NonOwnerWorkerKeepalive test failures
