TypeType 1.4.0

TypeType 1.4.0 adds richer search filters, consistent content blocking,
server-delivered YouTube subtitles, configurable account sessions, and several
playback, import and self-hosting fixes.

Search And Content Controls

• Add grouped YouTube search filters for upload date, content type, duration
  and sorting. #187
• Hide blocked channels and videos consistently across search, autoplay, watch
  pages, embeds, playlists, history, subscriptions and recommendations.
  #193
• Normalize channel and video identities so alternate YouTube URL formats
  cannot bypass blocked-content rules.

Subtitles And Playback

• Load YouTube subtitles through TypeType-Server instead of requiring the web
  client to contact YouTube directly.
• Cache subtitle content and preserve manual, automatic and translated subtitle
  tracks.
• Return typed rate-limit errors when YouTube rejects subtitle retrieval.
• Preload adaptive SABR initialization ranges to prevent startup failures when
  an initialization segment is not returned immediately.
  #204
• Restore saved playback positions only after the SABR session has completed
  its initial bootstrap.
• Route chapter selection through SABR so selecting a chapter seeks correctly
  again. #202
• Center captions correctly in the web player.
  #201
• Update PipePipeExtractor and align TypeType with the current YouTube client
  profiles.

Accounts And Administration

• Add AUTH_SESSION_TTL_DAYS to configure account session lifetime from 1 to
  365 days, with a default of 30 days.
  #203
• Preserve active browser sessions during temporary refresh failures instead
  of immediately redirecting to login.
• Keep generated password reset tokens visible and copyable when browser
  clipboard access is unavailable.
  #198
• Keep admin user avatars stable when an account identity is edited.
  #199

Imports And Performance

• Skip deleted and unavailable videos when importing YouTube Takeout playlists.
  #135
• Bound concurrent SABR download parts to reduce memory and connection pressure
  during large downloads.
• Keep Server and Token YouTube traffic on the configured proxy instead of
  silently switching to a different egress.

Self-Hosting

• Fix the installation script attempting to download the removed
  youtube-egress-relay.mjs file.
  #197
• Add account session lifetime configuration to the Compose stack and
  environment template.
• Validate the new session configuration during stack checks.

No database migration is required. AUTH_SESSION_TTL_DAYS is optional and
defaults to 30.

When a YouTube proxy is configured, it must remain reachable because Server and
Token will no longer silently bypass it.
