[Content source file]: Sharing my Content Sources · Issue #2 · banasapp/banas

Added

• Settings → Tags — Create and manage custom library tags (name, text/background colors, optional icon); assign from a cover’s context menu; badges on the cover (bottom-right) and on the movie detail page.
• Filter — Actresses I like — Sidebar entry under Filter lists manually added actresses; open an actress’s online film list from the filter catalog when matched.
• Dock — Actresses I like — Heart button on the left rail (between Jobs and code lookup) opens a searchable, paginated list; tap a name to open her filter browse.
• Covers / library / content sources — Context menu Add to actresses I like / Remove from actresses I like; when the card has no actress, lookup title/actress first (same flow for library and content sources).
• Filter — actress browse — Local only checkbox on the pager (left of pagination) switches the actress page to paginated films from your local library instead of the online catalog list.
• Download sources — query results — When a resource title contains a recognized product code and a cover resolves, an image icon appears before the name; hover shows a cover preview (no icon if unmatched).
• Library — Jasna decode — LTX Basic restoration model for Jasna v0.12.1+; decode dialog copy updated (0.11.x LTX weights may need re-download).

Changed

• Filter — liked actresses — Opening a liked actress from the dock or filter menu follows the same online allowance as other filter browse (allowOnline), consistent with the free-tier rules.
• Covers — liked actresses — Adding to Actresses I like plays a short heart animation from the actress name (or cover) to the dock heart button (respects reduced motion).

Fixed

• Covers / library / content sources — liked actresses — Add to actresses I like no longer overwrites existing title or actress metadata when both are already set; lookup runs only when actress names are missing.
• Filter — actress browse — Actress film lists no longer reload repeatedly when online detail backfills the actress name on the card.

Notes

• Liked-actress and tag data stay in the local database; nothing is synced to the cloud.

Banas 0.3.0

How to add content sources and download sources: https://github.com/banasapp/banas/blob/main/HOW-TO-ADD-SOURCES.md

Added

• Settings → Download — Choose what the cover download button does: open the download-source list, or open Find directly with a preferred source; optional downloaded mark (orange icon after opening a magnet from Find).
• Download sources / covers — With only one download source configured, the cover download button opens Find directly (skips the source picker).
• Content sources — playback — When a page resolves multiple streams, the built-in player shows a compact source control (hover to switch); the system player still opens the best URL only.
• Content sources — covers — Better support for CSS background-image thumbnails, blob: list images (browser / Camoufox materialize), and page JSON / RSC cover maps when <img> is empty.
• Covers / content sources — Context menu Look up rule opens Settings → Cover rules → Find with the card’s code prefilled; Refresh cover rebuilds the tile from current cover rules.
• Settings → Cover rules → Find — Add to rules after copying a cover URL: fills Parse from cover URL and runs parse / fill.
• License (free after trial) — Partial access instead of blocking all online modules: 5 download searches per day, browse one content source (first added), Live browse without play; Watch and Filter stay fully locked; the license page shows daily download-search usage.

Changed

• License — After the 3-day trial, free tier is granular (above); local library scan / browse / organize remain free. Pro is still required for unlimited download search, multiple content sources, Live play, Watch, Filter, and other paid modules.
• Content sources — Cloudflare / Camoufox browsing reuses clearance cookies across pages, avoids redundant cold browser passes, shows the list sooner, and loads covers asynchronously on blob-heavy sites.
• Content sources — visual add — Age-gate flow: picking pauses while you click through gates; Open in Camoufox for hard Cloudflare during visual setup.
• Dock / license UI — Free users see Pro-required hints on Watch and Filter; Live, Content sources, and Download sources remain partially usable under the free caps.

Fixed

• Watch — Aggregate watch refreshes the results view when a poll finishes with new items.
• Covers / UI — Context menus on the bottom row of cover grids reposition to stay inside the window.
• Content sources — playback — Extra background audio no longer plays when switching multiple streams in the built-in player.
• Content sources — CF-heavy sources (e.g. Manko / SUPJAV): stuck anti-bot states, missing covers, and slow paging after cookie / session changes.

Notes

• Multilingual How to add content & download sources guides ship with the public distribution docs (HOW-TO-ADD-SOURCES*.md).

Banas v0.2.0

[0.2.0] — 2026-10-21

Added

• Onboarding — First-run dock spotlight tour for each left-rail module (skip / back / next); replay from Settings → General.
• Filter — Encrypted filter API origin pack (data/filter-origin.banascfg); configure and export under Settings → Developer; lookups use the installed pack (fallback when missing).
• Filter — Sidebar Update (beside Manage): pull origin from banasapp/banas, incrementally refresh the actress catalog, republish catalog.banascat; progress dialog with cancel.
• Library — Move videos between local folders (single or batch); optional actress-folder layout preserved when moving.
• Library — Context menu Browse actress films — match a tagged actress against the filter catalog and open her online list (submenu when several are tagged).
• Library — Title-only videos without a product code: filename as title; scan, index, and archive without forcing a code.
• Watch — Aggregate watch lists watched content sources with result counts and an All row; per-source status dots.
• Content sources — MacCMS-style play pages (/index.php/vod/play/...): parse player_aaaa / encrypted play URLs for source-site playback.

Fixed

• Library — Opening a folder no longer waits on scan while Jasna decode (or other long jobs) holds the heavy queue; indexed library shows immediately, scan finishes in the background and refreshes quietly.
• Jobs — Jasna decode no longer blocks scan / organize / download / title-fill heavy jobs.
• Library — Switching folders could show the wrong grid, stay stale, or go blank; selection and loads track the active folder reliably.
• Library — By actress view showed video counts on cards instead of actress names.
• Content sources — Source-site playback for Apple CMS–style pages that embed the stream in page JSON rather than plain https:// links.

Changed

• Library — Opening a folder loads the index first; background rescan only if never scanned or last scan was more than 5 minutes ago (manual Scan folder unchanged).
• Filter — Catalog update continues with the local origin if GitHub fetch fails; actress catch-up stops after two consecutive pages with no new entries; origin URL hidden in the update UI.
• Covers / UI — Cover tiles use zoom (object-cover) so posters are less clipped; content-source title hover shows the title.
