Overview of scrobble service state files under /config/.cw_state, including currently_watching and auto-remove dedupe.
Scrobble “services” write small JSON state files under /config/.cw_state.
They keep Watcher and UI features fast and resilient.
You can usually ignore these files.
They only affect convenience features.
Scrobbling still works without them.
/config/.cw_state/
/config/.cw_state/currently_watching.json
transient “now playing” payload
used by UI features like Playing Card
written by: providers/scrobble/currently_watching.py
/config/.cw_state/watchlist_wl_autoremove.json
short TTL dedupe map for auto-remove logic
written by: providers/scrobble/_auto_remove_watchlist.py
Most behavior lives under scrobble.*.
Parse a playback event.
Update “currently watching” state (best effort).
Forward to sinks.
Optionally trigger auto-remove (best effort).
Prefer atomic writes.
Log errors. Don’t crash the pipeline.
Use TTL maps to cap growth.
Missing /config mount resets state on restart.
Permission issues break writes.
UI state may be stale.
Corrupted JSON can happen on hard shutdowns.
Deleting the file is usually safe.
