Introduces an HLS-over-HTTP path as Plan B for in-browser streaming. The
WebRTC + MSE pipeline keeps working untouched; the new path is selected
when the backend sets transport="hls" on a streaming session.
Daemon scope:
- engine/hls.go: HLSSession + HLSSessionRegistry. Spawns ffmpeg with
-f hls -hls_segment_type fmp4 + force_key_frames aligned with 4 s
segments. Pre-renders master + media playlists from the probe duration
so the browser knows the total timeline before any segment exists,
fixing seek/duration/pause/multi-track issues seen with the live fMP4
pipe.
- engine/probe.go: enumerate every audio + subtitle track instead of
collapsing to a single default audio track.
- engine/stream_server.go: route /hls/<id>/{master.m3u8,video/...,
subs/...} to the matching session. Emit a synthesised single-VTT
subtitle playlist per text track; bitmap subs (PGS/DVB) skip silently.
- cmd/daemon.go: branch on WebRTCSession.Transport == "hls" to register
an HLS session instead of running the legacy DataChannel pump.
- agent/types.go: WebRTCSession.Transport + AudioIndex fields.
Backend + web sides land in a follow-up commit.
Adds WebRTCSession.Quality to the sync payload so the daemon can pick a
MaxHeight + bitrate per session instead of using the global config cap.
resolveQualityCap() maps the label to a (height, b:v) pair and
buildStreamSource() promotes a passthrough decision to ActionTranscodeVideo
when the source resolution exceeds the cap (4K source on a phone client
with quality="720p" must transcode, not pass-through).
Also lands the transcode-on-by-default fix for legacy configs without a
[downloads.transcode] section so existing installs pick up h264+aac
fallback for HEVC/AC3 content without re-running setup.
Closes the agent half of in-browser playback for arbitrary files. When
the web app inserts a download_task with mode="seed_file", the daemon
now wraps the on-disk file as a single-file torrent, adds it to the
existing WebRTC-enabled torrent client, and reports the generated
info_hash back so the browser can target /stream/<hash>.
Pieces:
- internal/agent/types.go: Task.FilePath (received from claim) +
StatusUpdate.InfoHash (sent back). Both serialise compatibly with
the matching Zod schemas in the Next.js sync route.
- internal/engine/seed_file.go: SeedFile(client, filePath, trackers)
builds the metainfo via metainfo.Info.BuildFromFilePath +
bencode.Marshal, then AddTorrent + DownloadAll() so anacrolix
hashes the file and flips pieces to "have" as it goes. The
libtorrent piece-size ladder is mirrored from wstracker-probe so
generated torrents are interoperable with mainstream clients.
SeedFileOnDownloader is the daemon-facing convenience wrapper —
bails loud when [downloads.webrtc].enabled = false instead of
silently producing a torrent no browser can find.
- internal/cmd/seed_file_handler.go: handleSeedFileTask invoked from
the existing OnTasksClaimed dispatcher in daemon.go for mode=
seed_file. Validates filePath, calls the engine helper, and pushes
the resulting info_hash via Client.ReportStatus. Failures (missing
file, WebRTC disabled, ffmpeg-style oddities) report status="failed"
+ errorMessage so the browser's WatchInBrowserButton can show the
reason instead of timing out at 60 s.
- internal/cmd/daemon.go: dispatcher learns the seed_file branch in
the same shape as the existing stream branch.
Tests (6 unit, all green):
- SeedFile rejects missing files + directories.
- SeedFile yields a deterministic info_hash for the same payload across
fresh clients (web client polls expecting this).
- SeedFileOnDownloader errors when WebRTC is disabled.
- chooseSeedPieceLength matches the ladder breakpoints.
- makeAnnounceList handles nil/empty/partial inputs.
Web side compatible: mode=seed_file is already accepted by the sync
schema; agent.Task.filePath + StatusUpdate.infoHash now propagate
through the existing claim/report endpoints. End-to-end browser ↔
unarr smoke is the next concrete verification step (needs a running
unarr-dev daemon plus library scan + a file with no source torrent).
- Use a dedicated 10-minute HTTP client for library-sync so libraries
with hundreds or thousands of items no longer time out
- Show actionable ffprobe-not-found error: detects Docker and suggests
FFPROBE_PATH env var, config.toml setting, or package install
- Include static ffprobe binary in Docker image (johnvansickle.com)
- Bump version to 0.6.2
- task.go: fix deadlock in ToStatusUpdate() — calling Percent() (which
RLocks) while already holding RLock caused deadlock when a writer was
waiting; compute percent inline instead
- usenet.go: fix data race in Cancel() — tracker and taskDir were read
without the mutex while Download() writes them under it; read all
fields under the same lock
- upnp.go: fix UPnP Remove() blocking shutdown — run cleanup in goroutine
with 10s deadline (removeNATPMP worst case is 3s dial + 5s deadline)
- daemon.go: add path traversal protection for stream requests — validate
sr.FilePath is within configured directories before os.Stat; defends
against compromised API server sending arbitrary paths
- client.go: add wakeClient without timeout for long-poll wake endpoint
where context controls cancellation
- sync.go: trigger immediate sync when entering watching mode so stream
requests are picked up without waiting for the next scheduled interval
Replace the WebSocket + Cloudflare Durable Object architecture with a
single POST /sync endpoint. The CLI now operates autonomously with local
state (tasks.json) and syncs bidirectionally via adaptive-interval HTTP
polling (3s watching, 60s idle).
- Remove transport_ws, transport_hybrid, transport_http (~2,600 lines)
- Add SyncClient with adaptive interval loop
- Add LocalState for CLI-side task persistence
- Add TaskStateFromUpdate() helper (DRY)
- Extract finalize() to deduplicate processTask/processTaskRetry
- Consolidate shortID() into agent.ShortID (was in 3 packages)
- Wire GetActiveCount so `unarr status` shows active tasks
- Remove poll_interval, heartbeat_interval, ws_url from config
- Simplify ProgressReporter (sync replaces direct HTTP reporting)
Without a SetReadDeadline, a silently dead WebSocket (e.g. Cloudflare
dropping the connection without a close frame) would block readLoop
forever. The daemon would appear connected but never receive tasks,
and never fall back to HTTP polling.
- Send RFC 6455 pings every 30s (resets Cloudflare's idle timer)
- SetReadDeadline of 45s, refreshed on every pong and text message
- SetWriteDeadline of 10s on all writes to prevent blocked sends
- On timeout, readLoop emits "disconnected" → HybridTransport falls
back to HTTP and starts WS reconnection loop
Include StreamPort, LanIP, and TailscaleIP in RegisterRequest so the
server knows the agent's stream endpoints from the moment it registers,
not just after the first heartbeat. Align HeartbeatRequest field order
with RegisterRequest for consistency.
Track the highest byte offset served by the stream server to estimate
playback progress (0-100%). A WatchReporter goroutine sends progress
to POST /api/internal/agent/watch-progress every 10s during streaming.
- Add maxByteOffset + totalFileSize to StreamServer for Range tracking
- Add FileSize() to fileProvider interface (all 3 providers)
- New WatchReporter: periodic progress reporter tied to daemon context
- New WatchProgressUpdate type with optional progress/position/duration
- Wire reporter into all 3 stream paths (task stream, disk stream, active download stream)
- Replace `upgrade` stub with real command (alias for `self-update`)
- Also register `update` as alias: `unarr update` works too
- Rewrite `status` to show full config, disk usage, daemon state, and
update availability with colored sections
- Add version check cache (1h TTL) so `status` is instant on repeat runs
- Guard against division by zero on empty filesystems
- Guard against negative durations from clock skew
- Guard against stale PID via heartbeat recency check (2 min)
- Add comprehensive test coverage across agent, engine, upgrade, usenet,
arr, library, mediaserver, and UI packages
- Improve Makefile coverage target to exclude cmd/ glue code
- Fix stream handler resource cleanup and ffprobe error handling
- Auto-scan: daemon scans library daily (configurable via config.toml)
[library] auto_scan = true, scan_interval = "24h"
- Force start: tasks with forceStart=true bypass concurrency semaphore
(like Transmission's Force Start — opens temporary extra slot)
- Stall timeout default: 30m instead of unlimited, prevents dead torrents
from permanently blocking download slots
- ForceStart field in agent.Task for CLI/server communication
- Migration wizard from Sonarr/Radarr/Prowlarr (unarr migrate) [pre-beta]
- Auto-detect instances via Docker, config files, port scan, Prowlarr
- Import wanted list (monitored+missing movies/series)
- Import download history and blocklist to avoid re-downloading
- Extract debrid tokens from *arr download clients
- Quality profile mapping to preferred_quality config
- DISTINCT ON PostgreSQL query for optimal torrent selection
- JSON export with --dry-run --json (text to stderr, JSON to stdout)
- Media server detection (Plex/Jellyfin/Emby) in unarr init
- Detects library paths and offers them as download directory options
- Debrid auto-configuration in unarr init
- Scans *arr instances for debrid tokens
- Validates and saves via API if user confirms
- New preferred_quality setting in config (2160p/1080p/720p)
