- !BREAKING CHANGE! `config.yml` `threads` attribute is now renamed to `process_parallel` and is a boolean value true or false.
- API user DB persistence (merge/backup/store) now executes through async Tokio I/O so user-management APIs stay responsive without extra blocking hops.
- JSON playlist/category writers (xtream collections, user bouquets) now stream through Tokio I/O so persisting those files no longer blocks the runtime.
- Playlist EPG exports now write via async file handles to avoid blocking the runtime during XML serialization.
- Config and API proxy save endpoints now serialize via Tokio I/O, so editing configs through the API no longer blocks the runtime threads.
- Playlist updates now use Tokio tasks instead of spinning up per-source threads/runtimes, reducing CPU and memory overhead during large syncs.
- XMLTV timeshift responses stream asynchronously end-to-end to keep the Axum runtime responsive.
- `main` now uses `#[tokio::main]`, removing the manual runtime boilerplate and keeping every branch async end-to-end.
- Healthcheck CLI path now uses the async reqwest client so startup checks no longer block a dedicated thread.
- Shared stream shutdown now drops registry locks before releasing provider handles to prevent cross-lock stalls.
- Added `order: none` support for group/channel sorting so mappings can opt out of any reordering and keep the source order.
- Session tracking now matches repeated HLS segment connections by session token so a single user keeps one active connection count even when new TCP sockets are opened.
- Connection registration failures now trigger an explicit disconnect so zombie sockets don’t linger.
- Shared stream shutdown now drops registry locks before releasing provider handles to prevent cross-lock stalls.
- Connection registration failures now trigger an explicit disconnect so zombie sockets don’t linger.
- Shared stream shutdown now drops registry locks before releasing provider handles to prevent cross-lock stalls.
Shared streams should not increment user connection count as they
represent a single provider connection shared by multiple clients.
Changes:
- update_connection: Only increment counter for non-shared streams
- release_connection: Only decrement counter for non-shared streams
