Bug Fixes
Improved capacity calculations with shared provider grouping, overflow-safe totals, and empty-capacity handling.
Documentation
Documented liveness, readiness, and detailed status endpoints, including Docker and orchestrator usage.

- **New Features**
- Added configurable QoS snapshot compaction to periodically reclaim storage from expired snapshots.
- Compaction runs daily by default and can be disabled by setting the interval to `0`.
- QoS config hot-reload now recognizes compaction interval changes.
- Older saved snapshot checkpoints remain compatible with the new setting.
- **Documentation**
- Updated configuration examples and reverse-proxy QoS documentation to include `compaction_interval_secs`, its default, and disable behavior.
* **New Features**
* Added a STRM export option to control whether generated folder/file names use media metadata or the processed title.
* STRM naming now prefers the processed title by default; enabling the option switches to metadata-derived names.
* Added a UI chip/tag and editor control for the setting.
* **Documentation**
* Updated STRM configuration docs with the new option, its default, and its effect.
* Added localization text for the setting in supported languages.
* **Tests**
* Added/updated tests to verify filename behavior for videos and series with and without the option.
* **New Features**
* Catch-up streams can now auto-detect whether to serve direct video or an HLS playlist.
* Added archive-aware HLS session/identity handling and improved upstream user-agent propagation for manifests.
* Enhanced M3U timeshift/archiving, including nested handling and native Flussonic archive support; Short EPG can advertise archive availability.
* **Bug Fixes**
* Provider session headers now persist across retries and deferred-open scenarios.
* Legacy HLS routing is now cache-aware; seek detection improvements.
* Stalker errors now better redact sensitive URL details.
* Fix: Preserve VOD client range requests
* **Tests**
* Expanded coverage for probing, archive/timeshift resolution, header overlay rules, and related routing.
* **New Features**
* Added **Force MPEG-TS** / `disable_hls_streaming` for Xtream live streams, rewriting live `.m3u8` requests to `.ts`.

* Mapping directory merges now reject conflicting stages for the same mapping id and report both files clearly.
* **Documentation**
* Updated mapping DSL and target `processing_order` docs to describe stage timing and guarantees.
* **Tests**
* Added coverage for stage-restricted mapping behavior, merge conflicts, and AfterEpg timing.

* feat: key shared hls sessions by origin id
* feat: support hls content encoding
* fix: coderabbitai findings
* Fix: Custom headers are lost on provider://
In the manual redirect path, the abstract provider:// URL is compared against the resolved HTTP URL.
This causes the request to be marked as "scrubbed" before the first real redirect even occurs, stripping out headers like X-API-Key.
Shared HLS cache session feature and aligns the runtime, cache, provisioning, recovery, custom-response, and documentation paths with the new shared-session model.
