Reading embedded ID3/MP4 tags for every file during the scan itself was
taking minutes even for a small (146-track) library, since each mutagen
open is a slow round trip over the CIFS-mounted NAS share. Scan now uses
fast filename/path parsing only; tag reads happen once, only for the
tracks actually selected for import.
- New admin Library Scan page walks the NAS mounts directly for movies,
TV, and music not already in Radarr/Sonarr/local storage, and imports
them with storage_type=scan (fully integrated: streamable, transcodable,
listed in Admin) — Radarr/Sonarr import flows are untouched.
- New Music section (nav tab, album-grid browse, per-album track list,
persistent bottom player with queue/seek) backed by a Track model and
range-request audio streaming endpoint.
- MusicBrainz + Cover Art Archive integration (free, no API key) to fill
in album art for scanned tracks, paced to their 1 req/sec rate limit.
- Mounted the NAS music share into CT104 (new mp2 LXC mountpoint,
CIFS read-only) alongside the existing video mount.
- Optional Bluetooth/output-device picker on the player bar via the Audio
Output Devices API (setSinkId) for already-paired speakers — Chrome/Edge
only, since browsers can't pair new BT devices directly.
