- **New Features**
- Added assertions for verifying which provider account handled the latest request.
- Enabled provider-affine playback to fall back to another available provider when the pinned provider is unavailable.
- **Bug Fixes**
- Improved provider fallback handling, origin request tracking, and session updates.
- Preserved session headers when fallback stream setup fails and refreshed them after successful fallback.
- **Tests**
- Added coverage for provider-pool failover, account reuse, limits, rejection handling, and eviction behavior.
* **New Features**
* Added an opt-in runtime liveness watchdog with diagnostics, health status, and optional automatic restart.
* Added configurable stream cleanup capacity and eviction re-entry protection.
* Expanded configuration and UI access for users with playlist or user permissions, with safer data sanitization.
* Added testkit scenarios and reporting for playback, admission, provider limits, sharing, and VOD behavior.
* Added support for experimental-branch Docker builds.
* **Bug Fixes**
* Improved provider prioritization, shared playback capacity, cleanup, reconnect handling, and concurrent client behavior.
* Fixed playlist parsing for declared media types.
* Release links now use the configured destination.
New Features
Added an option to append a stable, numeric stream index to upstream User-Agent headers.
Stream indexes remain consistent throughout a playback session, including manifests, segments, reconnects, seeks, and provider failover.
Added a configuration checkbox for enabling the feature.
Documentation
Documented the new configuration option, including session behavior and restart handling.
Added English, Arabic, and Russian translations for the setting.

New Features
Programme icons are now captured when importing XMLTV electronic programme guides.
Programme icons are preserved when combining programme data from multiple sources.
Exported XMLTV guides now include programme icon information when available.
Icon URLs are rewritten consistently when URL rewriting is enabled.
Bug Fixes
Public resource requests now avoid following redirects and validate destinations before fetching.
Resource caching behavior is now correctly applied according to the request type.
Compatibility
Existing guides and legacy programme data remain supported when no icon is provided.
* Fix M3U alias credential rewriting on provider fallback
Rewrite opaque authentication query parameters when stream allocation
switches from the primary M3U provider to an alias.
Support unambiguous cross-key mappings such as token to api_key while
preserving unrelated query parameters and rejecting ambiguous mappings.
Add regression coverage for URL rewriting and provider allocation.
