Jellyfin:ScanLeader:Enabled defaults to false and nothing sets it, so
leader election never runs and every replica executes the timer-driven
library tasks concurrently - the exact behaviour the lease prevents.
- Enable gating by default when a Redis connection string is configured
- Honour an explicit Enabled setting either way
- Carry the effective decision onto the bound options the task worker reads
- Log at startup whether gating is active
- Warn when gating is enabled but no Redis connection string is configured
The startup configuration only reads JELLYFIN_ prefixed environment
variables, so the bare Jellyfin__TranscodeStore__* form used by the chart,
the manifests and the README is dropped and the Redis store is never
registered. Nothing logs the selected store, so the fallback is invisible.
- Read bare Jellyfin__* variables into the Jellyfin:* configuration root
- Keep an explicit JELLYFIN_ variable winning over the bare form
- Log the selected transcode session store at startup
- Ping Redis once at startup and log an unreachable store at Error
- Log endpoints only, never the connection string
Cleanup never matched a live session because the controller registered empty
manifest and segment paths, renewal was a read-modify-write that could revert a
takeover, and the takeover script compared an ISO date to a number, so it errored.
- populate the session record's manifest and segment paths from the playlist path
- renew the lease via a Lua compare-and-set on the owning pod
- store the lease expiry as unix milliseconds so the scripts can compare it
- retain the session record past its lease so an orphan can still be taken over
- test the Redis store against a real Redis, including the renew-vs-takeover race
- drop the live stream record nothing ever read back
The README and fork notes still described upstream and a pre-10.11 snapshot, so
there was nothing accurate to hand an operator setting this up.
- rewrite the README as an HA setup and configuration guide
- add architecture, contributing and transcoding design notes
- rewrite FORK-DIFF.md against the v12.0 base
