CrossWatch – v0.4.2

This release improves sync reliability between media servers (Plex, Emby, Jellyfin), especially for History and Ratings. The Remove toggle is also back in the Pair config for History.

Warning: For both Ratings and History, DO NOT enable REMOVE unless you really know why. It only makes sense in rare mirroring setups between media servers.

🔧 Fixes & Changes

• Fixed: Emby History sync from Plex is now more reliable. CrossWatch preserves Plex external IDs and uses show-level IDs when episode IDs aren’t present, avoiding silent misses.

• Fixed: Jellyfin History sync received the same resolver upgrade (show-level ID fallback + looser series-title matching), preventing false “unresolved” items when the show exists.

• Fixed: Jellyfin Ratings sync is hardened. Key mismatches no longer cause repeated retries or stuck ratings.

• Fixed: MDBList Ratings sync: removing ratings (including season/episode ratings) now cleans up correctly, stopping repeated “unrate” attempts.

• Fixed: Sync output no longer logs each pair twice; duplicate run:pair messages were removed.

• Change: The History Remove toggle/button is available again in Pair config, so delete-sync can be enabled when needed. Read the wiki first:

• Change: Cleanup helpers in /scripts/ were refactored into provider-specific tools:

  • plex_cleanup.py

  • jellyfin_cleanup.py

  • emby_cleanup.py These started as my own test scripts for cleaning up, backing up, and restoring Plex/Emby/Jellyfin states, but they may also be useful for others.

• Note: Script “backups” are API snapshots only (watchlist/history/ratings). They are not full server/database backups.
