Adds the ffmpeg-binary half of the resolution stack so the upcoming
WebRTC streaming transcoder (Fase 3.3) has a single point of entry.
Search order matches ResolveFFprobe so operators don't need to learn a
second mental model:
1. Explicit path (--ffmpeg flag / library.ffmpeg_path config)
2. FFMPEG_PATH env var
3. "ffmpeg" on PATH (system install)
4. Adjacent to the unarr executable (release tarball bundles it here —
this is the preferred path; see Fase 3.2 goreleaser changes)
5. Cache dir (sibling of the cached ffprobe binary)
6. Auto-download from ffbinaries.com (~70MB) as last resort
Includes:
- internal/library/mediainfo/ffmpeg.go — ResolveFFmpeg + actionable
Docker / non-Docker error messages
- internal/library/mediainfo/ffmpeg_download.go — DownloadFFmpeg, reuses
ffprobePlatformKey + ffprobeAPIClient + ffprobeDLClient + extractFromZip
helpers; bumps maxZipSize to 200MB (ffmpeg static is ~70-100MB)
- internal/config: LibraryConfig.FFmpegPath toml field for explicit paths
- 4 unit tests: explicit OK, explicit missing, env var, sibling cache path
Tarball bundling and the actual transcoding pipeline land in the next
two commits.
ResolveScanPaths() collects downloads.dir, organize.movies_dir,
organize.tv_shows_dir, and library.scan_path (if set), then removes
paths that are subdirectories of a parent already in the list.
This ensures the daemon and CLI scan all configured dirs without
relying solely on scan_path being set.
- 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
- 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
- Expand default trackers from 5 to 31 (synced with web tracker-list.ts)
- Add DHT node persistence between sessions (~/.local/share/unarr/dht-nodes.txt)
Saves known nodes on shutdown, restores on startup for warm DHT bootstrap
- Make metadata_timeout and stall_timeout configurable in config.toml
Default: 0 (unlimited, like qBittorrent) — users can set custom values
- Fix CleanTitle to handle web domains and format patterns (e.g. pctfenix.com)
- 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)
- Library scan command (unarr scan) with ffprobe metadata extraction
