v1.4.0-b4

Features

[x] FEAT: add HDR variants to the Video Quality section

Media Hoarder now detects the following HDR variants: "HDR10", "HDR10+", "DV", "HLG".

The HDR variants are shown in the media entries of the main list:

When clicked, you can see details about a certain HDR variant:

Filter section "Video Quality" also contains these entries:

Misc / Fixes

The IMDB entry detection (Media Hoarder trying to find the correct IMDB entry for a movie / tv show based on its name and release year) can fail due to different circumstances. Until now, Media Hoarder did not show errors prominently enough.

[x] SCRAPER: add testIMDBFindPageSearch to testset in UI

[x] SCRAPER: during the phase of IMDB entry detection, if something fails, the error will be stored in the scraper errors

v1.4.0-b5

Features

[x] FEAT: do an update check on the beta channel if the build is a beta build

A beta build (like this one) will now do version checks against other beta builds and tell you if a newer beta build is available. The link for downloading is also pointing to the beta releases (and not the Media Hoarder website's download section).

kolbdog323 commented 3 months ago

Also the official website version needs updated its only VERSION 1.3.5

theMK2k commented 3 months ago

It will still take some time for me to create some promotional stuff. The final v1.4.0 won't be much different to the latest beta though.

kolbdog323 commented 3 months ago

you haven't posted the new beta with bonus/extra yet

theMK2k commented 3 months ago

v1.4.0-b7 is the latest beta and it should be able to handle bonus episodes and extras

I updated the documentation about Media Storage today: https://github.com/theMK2k/Media-Hoarder/blob/feature-series/docs/01-Media-Storage.md

I can create a v1.4.0-b8 tomorrow but it will just contain some minor UI improvements.

kolbdog323 commented 3 months ago

How will they be numbered on media hoardee bonus/exta when appear?
