Closes #1265

  • Persist installation-wide user:hidden preferences alongside favorites, editable by all clients.
  • Add includeHidden recovery and apply visibility before browse/search pagination, counts, letter indexes, and random selection. Preserve explicit launches and hidden favorites/history.
  • Invalidate stale cursors across preference writes, notify clients, and cover migrations, rebuilds, overlays, roles, and concurrent projection updates.

Reindex/rebuild matching uses the existing canonical system/path behavior shared with favorites. Automatic reassociation after file moves remains deferred.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added support for marking media as hidden and revealing it when explicitly requested.
    • Hidden media is excluded from search, browsing, counts, indexes, random selection, favorites, and history by default.
    • Hidden preferences persist across media reindexing and remain launchable.
    • Added includeHidden options to search, browse, and system-count requests.
    • Added visibility indicators and a media.visibility notification when hidden status changes.
    • Browse cursors refresh safely after visibility changes.
  • Documentation

    • Documented hidden-media behavior, API options, and visibility notifications.

Changes

The change adds durable user:hidden media preferences. Discovery APIs exclude hidden entries by default and support includeHidden. Browse cursors track visibility revisions. Hidden mutations update UserDB, MediaDB, reindex behavior, and notifications.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 7cae7

Hidden preferences can become inconsistent after a projection failure, and pagination or count responses can expose incorrect library results. These issues should be resolved before merge.

Preserve hidden filtering on the count-error path.

When excludeHidden is true and SystemMediaCounts fails, IndexedSystems() includes systems with non-missing hidden media. The response adds those IDs without later filtering because mediaCountsAvailable is false. Return the count error or use a visibility-aware fallback.

### media.visibility

An indexed media item's hidden preference changed. No payload. Refresh browse/search, system counts, and favorites/history hidden indicators; discard existing browse and letter-index cursors. Clients should also refresh after reconnect because notifications are not replayed. Visibility is a shared installation-wide preference, not a launch restriction.

Include media.search cursors in the invalidation contract.

media.search is cursor-paginated, and hidden preference changes alter its result set. This text tells clients to discard only browse and letter-index cursors. A client can reuse a stale search cursor and receive an inconsistent page or a cursor error.

State that clients must also discard media.search cursors, or document why search cursors are excluded.

Keep the UserDB preference and MediaDB projection consistent on failure.

SetMediaUserHidden commits the UserDB preference before MediaDB.UpdateMediaTags runs. If the projection update fails, the handler returns an error while UserDB contains the new value and MediaDB retains the old projection. The reapply path runs only during indexing, not during the failed request. Use a durable reconciliation mechanism or a concurrency-safe conditional rollback.

Validate visibility at the shared search-cursor boundary.

HandleMediaSearch uses its own cursorData codec, separate from the browse cursor validation. Store the effective ExcludeHidden mode and media-preferences revision in every search cursor, including legacy and sorted cursors. Reject the cursor before SearchMediaWithFilters when either value changes; this prevents skipped or repeated results after a mode or preference change.

Preserve the empty-system route-count contract.

When opts.Systems is empty and hidden media exists, this branch calls sqlVisibleRouteCounts without a system predicate. It returns route counts from all systems. The existing unfiltered branch returns an empty map for the same input. Check len(opts.Systems) == 0 before this branch.

Hiding a single entry sent every browse aggregate down its media-scan
fallback: root counts, directory listings, directory counts, route counts
and system root candidates all abandoned the browse cache and recomputed
from Media through a NOT IN subquery. On the 229,727-media MiSTer test
device that took media.browse from ~0.1s to a 30s deadline failure, and
system-scoped browse to 9-18s. The behaviour was binary on "any hidden row
exists", not proportional to how many.

Keep every cached path and subtract the hidden set from its result instead.
Hidden rows are read once per query into a small in-memory set and applied
as arithmetic: directory and route counts lose their hidden contribution,
directories and routes left empty are dropped, and a paged directory listing
over-fetches by the number of directories hiding could empty so the page
still fills. Root candidates probe for a remaining visible row only in
subtrees that hold hidden media, and per-system counts subtract from the
shared generation cache rather than re-aggregating behind a NOT filter.
The media-scan fallbacks keep their SQL filter for when the cache is cold.

Also fixes a pre-existing bug the PR's routing hid: sqlBrowseVirtualSchemes
looked the browse root up as "" while BrowseDirs stores it as "/", so a
populated cache dropped every virtual scheme root from the pathless listing.
On the test device scummvm:// is now listed again.

Measured on device, browse median at 0/1/10/100/1000 hidden: roots
0.11/0.12/0.12/0.17/0.56s, system contents 0.29/0.33/0.34/0.46/1.49s.
…edges

A media.search cursor carried no visibility state, so switching includeHidden
mid-list or hiding an entry between pages silently skipped or repeated rows.
Search cursors now carry the same mode and preference revision browse cursors
do and are rejected when either moves; media.history keeps an unstamped cursor
because its result set does not move when a preference changes.

Bound the child-directory IN list built when counting directories that hidden
media emptied, since how many directories hold hidden media is user-driven.
Random weighting now asks SystemMediaCounts for visibility explicitly instead
of relying on the NOT filter already injected into its tag list, which kept it
on the cached per-system totals. The excludeHidden variadic on BrowseRootCounts
and SystemMediaCounts became a plain parameter so that choice is visible at
every call site, and the hidden-tag check uses the tags package constants.

Tests cover the scope boundaries the subtraction has to respect: a nested hide
emptying a whole branch, a sibling sharing a name prefix, a loose file directly
in the browsed directory, another system's media in the same directory, and a
hidden row that has since gone missing. Each was confirmed to fail against a
deliberately broken match.
RandomGameWithQuery excluded hidden media unconditionally, so a ZapScript
random asking for user:hidden built a query that could never match. Apply the
same exception browse and search do: a required user:hidden or user:favorite
filter is an explicit ask for those entries. The rule now lives beside the
other visibility policy in visibility.go so all three callers read the same one.
Adds the two visibility outcomes the earlier tests left uncovered: a drop
candidate that survives, so the over-fetched directory page has to be trimmed
back to the requested size and the next page still starts after it, and a
route whose media is entirely hidden dropping out of the browse roots.
