- Downloads now store original Japanese in TITLE/ARTIST/ALBUM tags
so Apple Music, iTunes, YTM etc. all see the authentic original text
- Sort tags (TITLESORT/ARTISTSORT/ALBUMSORT) written with romaji for
apps that use them for sorting/display
- iTunes-resolved English artist name used for ARTISTSORT and folder names
when available (more accurate than kuromoji for known artists)
- rawArtist parameter added to downloadTrack so YTM search query uses
the original Japanese channel name (fixes wrong song downloads)
- spotify.js: artistName preserved as original; itunesArtistName stored
separately so the Spotify importer shows Japanese titles
- romaji index now includes titleRomaji/artistRomaji/albumRomaji fields
- Frontend: showRomaji setting (Settings > Bibliothek) — when on, player
bar, now-playing, queue, and song lists all show romaji via index lookup
- refreshDisplayMode() updates all live UI when the toggle is saved

- ytdlp.js + novasonic-server.js: apply romajiForStorage to album tag
and folder/rename paths (was only applied to artist/title before)
- ui.js: _createNdPlaylist falls back to romaji index for Japanese titles
since Navidrome search3 doesn't index Japanese text properly

- Add romajiForStorage() to romaji.js — smart word spacing + Title Case
- ytdlp.js: apply to folder names, filenames, and embedded tags
- novasonic-server.js: apply in edit-metadata endpoint and Spotify resolve
- spotify.js: update track artist/name from iTunes canonical English names

"Arriez & King Dif" was used as-is for the folder; now splits on , ; &
so only the first artist is used: "Arriez".

Naming convention (download + edit-metadata):
Before: {01 - }Title.ext
After: {01 - }Artist1, Artist2 - Title.ext
- ytdlp.js: builds fileBase with artist prefix; findExistingTrack checks
both new and old format so existing files aren't re-downloaded
- metadata.js: findExistingTrack accepts optional safeArtist param
- novasonic-server.js: file rename on title edit now includes artist
(falls back to Navidrome's stored artist if not provided in body)
Song list subtitle: hide album name when album === title (singles where
the album is named after the track appear to duplicate the title)
Player bar: removed .player-title:hover underline/colour effect

Removes LRCLIB lookup, .lrc sidecar file writing, and lyrics/uslt
metadata embedding from all downloads.

- SC tracks: use artworkUrl/album/genre fields (not iTunes artworkUrl100/collectionName/primaryGenreName)
- Playlist handler: same SC field fallbacks for artwork, album, genre, year
- ytdlp.js: convert & to , in album_artist tag so Navidrome albumartist.Split works
- Importer: clear both previews on any URL input change, not just on clear
- edit-metadata: rename album folder on disk when album name changes

- New src/soundcloud.js: resolves SoundCloud URLs via yt-dlp --dump-single-json,
renders track/playlist preview with per-track download buttons
- Backend POST /api/soundcloud/resolve: extracts metadata (title, artist, genre,
artwork, duration) directly from SoundCloud — no iTunes lookup needed
- ytdlp.js: sourceUrl param — if set, downloads directly from URL instead of
ytsearch cascade (used for SoundCloud tracks)
- Spotify importer page renamed to Song Importer, now contains both
Spotify and SoundCloud sections in one view

Each tryYtmSearch() call made a fresh HTTP request, so YouTube could
return different result orderings between steps. The correct video
(right title, wrong channel name) appeared in step 1 but was gone by
step 3 — a worse video with matching keywords slipped through instead.
Now fetch 10 YTM URLs once upfront and filter the same list with
progressively relaxed rules. Also saves 2-4 extra YTM requests per
download.

Using the full artist name with Unicode symbols (e.g. ☆NoAki☆) in ytsearch
caused YouTube to return 0-1 completely irrelevant results, letting wrong songs
fall through to the no-filter fallback. Strip only \p{S} (Unicode symbol chars
like ☆ ★ ♥) but keep ASCII punctuation — so N!GHT stays "N!GHT" (important for
disambiguation) while ☆NoAki☆ becomes "NoAki" (searchable).
YTM URL still uses the original artist name with all chars intact.

Use mainArtist (with special chars) for ytsearch queries so e.g. "N!GHT - Yume"
searches correctly instead of "NGHT - Yume" which YouTube misreads as "night"
and returns ambience videos.

- YTM URL now uses unstripped artist name (e.g. "N!GHT" instead of "NGHT") for
better search ranking on YouTube Music
- Steps 1-2 of cascade now include a soft channel ~= filter using the artist's
first word, preventing wrong-artist songs with matching titles from being
downloaded (e.g. a different "Moonlight" for N!GHT)
- Steps 3+ drop the channel filter so label-hosted tracks still get found

- ytdlp.js: use \b word boundaries in all variant filter regexes so that
partial matches like "nightcoreals" containing "nightcore" no longer
falsely reject official videos; also fixes sped regression (!~= \bsped\b
instead of the too-narrow "sped up" pattern)
- squid.js: restructure verify payload to mirror challenge response layout
{ parameters, solution: { number, derivedKey }, signature }
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- squid.js: add top-level signature from challenge response to verify payload
(server added signature validation, causing HTTP 400 without it)
- ytdlp.js: switch variant filter from !*= to !~= (?i) so Remix/REMIX/remix
are all rejected, not just lowercase
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- ytdlp.js: watch for [youtube:tab] in yt-dlp output during flat-playlist step;
return [] when channel expansion is detected so cascade falls through to ytsearch
- Revert player.js / main.js / state.js PWA _changingTrack changes (not effective)

--match-filter 'webpage_url !*= /browse/' was applied to individual videos
AFTER yt-dlp expanded an artist channel into its uploads playlist — by then
each video had a /watch?v= URL, so the filter never fired.
New approach: run yt-dlp --flat-playlist --print webpage_url first to get
the raw search result URLs, filter /browse/ entries in Node.js, then pass
only the actual watch?v= video URLs to yt-dlp for download with --max-downloads 1.
The channel is never expanded; we get the real song from the search results.
