Orca Engine 1.4.13.6 (beta)

Finding streams no longer hangs for 100 seconds and then reports none: each public indexer is now searched on its own with a 20 second limit, so one unreachable indexer only loses its own results. Includes 1.4.13.5: a resumed movie no longer shows twice in Continue Watching, and library titles keep their TMDB, IMDb and TVDB ids. Requires Jellyfin 12.1 or later. This is a beta release.

Orca Engine 1.4.13.5 (beta)

• A resumed movie no longer shows twice in Continue Watching. The engine asked Jellyfin for items without their provider ids, so it couldn't match a library movie to its TMDB id, and Jellyfin's resume point and the engine's own progress record showed as two cards.
• Library titles keep their TMDB, IMDb and TVDB ids. The same omission meant full library syncs stored titles with no ids. The next sync, at Jellyfin startup, fills them in.
• Progress from a stream carries over to the library copy, which the missing ids had also prevented.

Includes 1.4.13.4: background trailer and theme jobs yield the CPU to playback. Requires Jellyfin 12.1 or later. This is a beta release.

Orca Engine 1.4.13.4 (beta)

• The engine's background jobs give way to playback. Trailer downloads and re-encodes, and theme-song downloads and conversions, now run at the lowest CPU priority, so they only use CPU that playback and the server leave free. On a four-core server, a trailer re-encode had been taking about three cores while people browsed.

Includes 1.4.13.3: search no longer offers a show you already have, a restart no longer leaves the home missing rows, Recently Added, Movies and Series show only titles you can play, and titles requested outside the app show Adding. Requires Jellyfin 12.1 or later. This is a beta release.

Orca Engine 1.4.13.3 (beta)

• Search no longer offers a show you already have when TMDB lists it twice. Dhindora's library copy is one TMDB entry and search returned its duplicate, so 1.4.13.2's fix missed it. A library title with the same name, type and year now counts as the same show; an id Jellyfin already set is never changed.

Includes 1.4.13.2: a restart no longer leaves the home missing rows, Recently Added, Movies and Series show only titles you can play, and titles requested outside the app show Adding once their page is opened. Requires Jellyfin 12.1 or later. This is a beta release.

Orca Engine 1.4.13.2 (beta)

Fixes found while testing the app against 1.4.13.1.

• A restart no longer leaves the home missing rows. The first home after a restart builds cold, and rows that run out of time are dropped. That partial page used to be kept for five minutes; it is now rebuilt within 30 seconds.
• Recently Added, Movies and Series show only titles you can play. A series added by Sonarr before any episode arrived no longer appears there with a Coming Soon badge.
• Search no longer offers a show you already have. When Jellyfin has no TMDB id for a library title (common for Indian shows matched only on TVDB), it is now matched by name and year, and the id is kept.
• Titles requested outside the app show Adding. A title requested in Jellyseerr or added straight to Radarr no longer shows Request on home cards once its page has been opened.

Includes 1.4.13.1 and 1.4.13.0. Requires Jellyfin 12.1 or later. This is a beta release.

Orca Engine 1.4.13.1 (beta)

Fixes 1.4.13.0, whose home screen came back empty on existing servers: a new database column was never added, so every catalog query failed. Missing columns are now added on every start. Includes everything in 1.4.13.0: ratings count for as much as their votes support, language weighs as much as genre, titles you keep skipping sink out of For You, and (from 1.4.12.0) starting a title no longer counts as watching it and For You changes daily. Requires Jellyfin 12.1 or later. This is a beta release.

Orca Engine 1.4.13.0 (beta)

Ratings now count for as much as their votes support, so a 10.0 from a handful of votes no longer leads Critically Acclaimed or tops For You. Recommendations weigh the language you watch as much as genre, and titles stop winning just for carrying more tags and cast. A title shown on five or more days that you never focus, open or play sinks out of For You, and comes back after a few weeks. Includes 1.4.12.0: starting a title no longer counts as watching it, shows watched live shape your picks, and For You changes daily. Requires Jellyfin 12.1 or later. This is a beta release.

Orca Engine 1.4.12.0 (beta)

Recommendations learn from what you actually watch: starting a title no longer counts as watching it, a show you only sampled counts against it instead of for it, and shows you watch now shape your picks. For You changes every day instead of showing the same list, and leaves out titles you've already started. Requires Jellyfin 12.1 or later. This is a beta release.

Orca Engine 1.4.11.0-beta

Theme songs found by searching YouTube now work; before, every search came back empty. Themes downloaded while 1.4.9.0 used Plex's theme server are deleted and fetched again from ThemerrDB and YouTube. Includes 1.4.10.0: a home card for a title in your library opens its library page from Info and Play. Requires Jellyfin 12.1 or later. This is a beta release.

Orca Engine 1.4.10.0-beta

A home card for a title that's in your library, such as a show in For You or In the Spotlight, now opens its library page from Info and Play instead of the not-in-your-library page. Requires Jellyfin 12.1 or later. This is a beta release.
