Personal Cloud Library Source v0.3.2

Playnite library extension — public update from v0.2.0

PCLS catalogs games you supply and control on local storage, external drives, NAS shares, and separately configured rclone remotes. Import a catalog, select the games to cache, and use Playnite's standard install, play and uninstall actions. PCLS does not supply games, accounts, cloud storage, ROMs, emulators or streaming.

What's new

  • Guided setup and preview. Bounded, cancellable read-only previews show candidate titles, skipped items and warnings before importing. Local/NAS catalog generation no longer blocks Playnite's setup window.
  • Cache-first on-demand transfers. Copy selected local or rclone content into an explicitly configured local cache, with a queue, cancellation, retry, progress and a Desktop dashboard.
  • Safer filesystem operations. New installs stay inside the chosen cache, existing destinations aren't silently adopted or overwritten, and linked/unsafe paths are rejected. Source content and cloud files aren't deleted by cache operations.
  • Windows stability. Improved asynchronous install completion and UI-thread signaling, Windows ownership-receipt path handling, cancellation cleanup (including rclone temporary sidecars) and package validation.
  • Improved Playnite integration. Dark-theme Details readability, source-health diagnostics, accurate live dashboard state, and standard game actions in Desktop and Fullscreen.
  • Compatibility. v0.2.0 settings and game identities are migrated in place. The former default rclone timeout of 30 seconds becomes 90 seconds; custom values remain unchanged.

Upgrade and safety notes

  • Back up your Playnite configuration and PCLS settings before updating. Verify the source and cache paths in Desktop settings before updating your library.
  • New installs targeting paths outside the configured cache are refused. Existing external content is not moved or deleted automatically.
  • Recursive directory cache uninstall remains disabled pending additional safety qualification. File-only cache uninstall is available subject to policy checks.
  • PCLS keeps original source/remote content separate from the cache. Do not use any personal cloud account or library as a test fixture.
  • There is no dedicated setup wizard/dashboard in Playnite Fullscreen; configure sources in Desktop first.
  • The cached-size display for items sharing a cache directory can overstate a single game's size. This is a presentation limitation, not a measured transfer size.
  • Actual third-party cloud-provider and NAS scenarios may depend on credentials, network access, mapping and permissions; only a disposable local-only rclone backend was exercised during the Windows acceptance run.

Verification

The Windows QA handoff reports 435/435 tests passed, including real local-only rclone cancellation/retry, a v0.2.0 → v0.3.2 upgrade with game IDs and tested hashes preserved, installed Desktop/Fullscreen workflows, and official Toolbox verification of the pre-update manifests. The merged GitHub Actions build also passed; its hosted test job skips the two opt-in real-rclone tests.
