Critical Fix for Episode Import Dates:
- Webhook episodes now query Sonarr import history instead of using current time
- Fix _get_webhook_episode_date() to follow same logic as manual scans
- Convert import dates from UTC to local timezone for NFO dateadded fields
- Episodes now show 'sonarr:history.import' source instead of 'webhook:new_download'
Before: <dateadded>2025-09-14T12:40:07+00:00</dateadded> (current webhook time)
After: <dateadded>2025-09-14T08:40:07-04:00</dateadded> (real import time in local timezone)
This fixes the issue where episodes downloaded at 8:40am EST were showing
12:40pm UTC webhook time instead of the actual import timestamp.
Enhanced webhook processing now:
1. Checks database for existing entries (prevents duplicates)
2. Queries Sonarr import history for real import dates
3. Converts UTC import dates to local timezone
4. Only uses current time as last resort for true new downloads
NFO Management Timestamp Fix:
- Fix NFO management comments to use local timezone instead of UTC
- Both movie and TV episode NFO files now show consistent local timezone
- Comments now show: <!-- managed by NFOGuard at 2025-09-14T09:29:06-04:00 -->
Enhanced Episode Processing Debug:
- Add comprehensive debug logging for webhook episode database lookups
- Track IMDb ID and season/episode info throughout processing pipeline
- Add database write verification to catch storage issues immediately
- Enhanced logging will help identify duplicate processing root causes
This addresses the issue where episodes were being treated as new downloads
instead of finding existing database entries, helping prevent duplicate processing.
- Fix NFO dateadded timestamps to use local timezone instead of UTC
- Convert Radarr/Sonarr import dates from UTC to local timezone for NFO files
- Update webhook episode processing to use local time for new downloads
- Convert file modification time fallbacks to local timezone
- Preserve historical dates (aired, premiered) in original UTC format
- Replace all placeholder logging functions with centralized timezone-aware logging
- Add convert_utc_to_local() utility function for timestamp conversion
- Now all logs AND NFO files show consistent local timezone formatting
Users with TZ=America/New_York will now see:
- Logs: [2025-09-14T09:37:00-04:00]
- NFO files: <dateadded>2025-09-14T09:37:00-04:00</dateadded>
- Fix inconsistent timestamp formats in logs for easier troubleshooting
- All logging systems now respect Docker TZ environment variable (e.g., TZ=America/New_York)
- Add TimezoneAwareFormatter for Python's standard logging module
- Enhance _log function with robust timezone support and fallbacks
- Replace placeholder logging functions with centralized core.logging._log
- Support both zoneinfo (Python 3.9+) and pytz (older versions)
- Users now see consistent timezone formatting across all log outputs
⚙️ New Configuration Option:
• Added TV_WEBHOOK_PROCESSING_MODE environment variable
• targeted = Only process episodes mentioned in webhook (efficient, default)
• series = Process entire series directory (comprehensive, previous behavior)
🎯 Targeted Episode Processing:
• New process_webhook_episodes() method for precise processing
• Only updates NFOs for downloaded episodes (e.g., just S41E07)
• Reduces unnecessary file operations and Emby notifications
• Falls back to series processing if no episode data in webhook
🔧 Implementation Details:
• Modified Sonarr webhook handler to pass episode data
• Enhanced batch processor with mode detection
• Maintains backward compatibility with existing behavior
• Added comprehensive logging for processing mode selection
✨ Benefits:
• Efficient: 1 download = 1 episode processed (not entire series)
• Configurable: Users can choose preferred behavior via .env
• Compatible: Works with existing autoscan/Emby refresh systems
• Smart: Falls back gracefully when episode data unavailable
✨ Features Added:
• Single season/episode processing capability via new endpoints
• Enhanced NFO generation with full Sonarr API metadata (titles, plots, ratings)
• NFOGuard timestamp tracking in all NFO source comments
• URL-safe /tv/scan-season and /tv/scan-episode endpoints
🔧 Technical Improvements:
• Fixed URL encoding issues for paths with spaces and special characters
• Enhanced TVProcessor with process_season() and process_episode_file() methods
• Rich metadata extraction from Sonarr API (episode titles, plots, runtime, ratings)
• XML escaping for special characters in metadata
• Comprehensive episode parsing (SxxExx and numeric formats)
📚 Documentation:
• Updated README with new TV processing endpoints
• Added enhanced NFO generation examples showing before/after
• Documented URL-safe alternatives to manual scan paths
🎯 User Benefits:
• Can now process single seasons: Chicago Fire Season 13
• Can now process single episodes: S13E21 files
• Enhanced NFO files with full episode metadata for better Emby/Plex experience
• Timestamps show when NFOGuard processed each file
- TMDB now accepts ANY release type (1-6+) for maximum coverage
- Added Radarr NFO <premiered> date extraction as additional fallback
- For rename-first movies: Import → Any TMDB → Radarr NFO → File dates
- Much more aggressive about using ANY reasonable date over bad file dates
- Covers edge cases where TMDB has unusual release types
Version bumped to 0.2.20
- Enhanced _get_digital_release_date with comprehensive logging
- Added external clients configuration check in debug endpoint
- Will show if TMDB API key is configured and external clients initialized
- Added error handling for external client calls
- Corrected debug endpoint to use global movie_processor variable
- Was incorrectly trying to access batcher.movie_processor (doesn't exist)
- Now properly tests full TMDB fallback pipeline for rename-first movies
- Add authentication to git clone commands in CI workflows for private repo support
- Enhanced debug endpoint to test FULL movie processing pipeline (not just database)
- Debug now shows both database result AND final TMDB fallback decision
- Will reveal if TMDB API calls are working correctly for rename-first scenarios
- Fix duplicate Dockerfile sections that were causing build hangs
- Replace complex build args with simple runtime git branch detection
- Revert CI workflows to working state (remove build args and debug code)
- Add automatic version tagging: dev branch shows "0.2.15-dev"
- Enhanced movie fallback logic for rename-first scenarios
- Improved logging to trace movie date decision process
