🚀 TubeArr 0.9.1

THE METADATA UPDATE

YouTube → TV library translation that doesn't suck.

A lot of this update is about making metadata behave like a real media source, tightening up the pipeline, and cutting down the jank.

Custom Plex metadata provider
TubeArr can now serve metadata directly to Plex in a TV-shaped format.
Stable mapping for Channel → Playlist → Video is now much more intentional instead of “hope Plex figures it out.”
Custom NFO pipeline
Proper support for tvshow.nfo, season.nfo, and episode NFOs.
Includes repair/sync flows so your library doesn’t slowly rot over time.
Custom playlists
Rule-based grouping for videos that YouTube refuses to organize properly.
Includes conflict handling and matching helpers so things land where they should.
Metadata activity tracking
Metadata queue/history is now visible.
Scheduled tasks also track run results instead of silently doing their thing.
Nightly/release groundwork
GitHub Actions improvements for builds and releases.
Less manual nonsense.
Localization improvements
Expanded Spanish translation coverage.
Less English leaking everywhere.

Metadata model (media-server-first)
Continued cleanup toward:
- Channel → Show
- Playlist → Season
- Video → Episode
Less “YouTube-ish,” more “media server understands this.”
Playlist resolution + performance
Batched primary playlist resolution to reduce DB thrashing.
Queue/history lookups are less stupid now.
FFprobe handling
Centralized execution logic so probing doesn't randomly hang or behave inconsistently.
yt-dlp integration
Updated format filtering syntax to match newer yt-dlp.
Removed deprecated --prefer-ffmpeg usage from defaults.

yt-dlp format filter compatibility
Fixed broken selector syntax with newer yt-dlp versions.
Cleaned up deprecated args in profiles and migrations.
Metadata/history UI rendering
Fixed invalid nested table cells causing layout issues.
Playlist resolution inefficiencies
Removed per-channel query loops that were hammering the DB.
Media probing robustness
FFprobe handling improved to avoid deadlocks/timeouts.
Localization gaps
Filled missing Spanish strings that were falling back to English.
