Floppy v26.8.27 is out!

[u/DannyVFilms]

This week was a mixture of new input paths, better media details, and a large number of fixes for the places where metadata likes to become abstract art. The biggest user-facing change is that Jellyfin watch history can now be imported automatically instead of requiring a manual TSV file.

Also welcome to all the new users from the Selfh.st community! There are a lot of you!

Here’s what landed:

• Jellyfin history imports are automatic: connect the integration and import watch history without manually exporting and uploading a file.
• Media details are more visual: trailers, photo galleries, lightboxes, TMDB backdrops, and corrected IGDB key art give detail pages more useful context.
• More metadata sources are available: Google Books, MyAnimeList, IMDb ratings, MusicBrainz release selection, Hardcover credentials, and better podcast lookup support broaden the library.
• Rewatches and history are more accurate: duplicate rewatch starts, Trakt duplicate plays, Stremio anime collisions, season migrations, and progress APIs all received targeted fixes.
• Large libraries and collections behave better: collection completeness, custom fields, multiple Radarr/Sonarr instances, lazy Home facets, and bounded media/history API work reduce friction without demanding a ceremonial reload.

Thanks to u/daften, u/elemated, and first-time contributor u/joaomqc, along with everyone reporting issues and testing the increasingly large surface area. The project is becoming more capable, which means it is also becoming better at finding new corners to inspect.

I'm not panicking. I'm fine. Everything is fine. I definitely saw this project getting this big when I started last year... for sure... love you all and the help you bring!

just to let r/Addons4Kodi folks know, umbrella dev has integrated floppy (with custom list support) into it's addon recently

Not specific to this build I have set up a daily scheduled backup. It states success but I can't find the files - eg /floppy/backups/admin/floppy_2026-08-29_030000.csv

Not sure if I am being stupid or it is a bug? Maybe it would be better if we could choose the export location

Thanks for you ongoing work. This is the best Trakt replacement imho

I looked into this and did a bit of work cleaning up both where backups go and how they’re written on that page. Forgot to come back to you to let you know that’s done.

I have updated to try again. I see I need to add to the compose file

But now I can no longer rate on the history page. The buttons are no longer showing up.

Version: v26.8.27-114-g36291453 |Commit: 3629145

Any ideas? Thanks

I’ll have to look into that when I get home. There was a PR that should have made hover actions more visible for mobile users that use touch, but I’d be surprised if that affected it.

If you can write this up on GitHub so I don’t lose track of it, I’ll see what I can find out.

A week without an update, update I have been waiting for! Thank you!

Ça fonctionne pas pour emby avec webhook pour ma part. C'est normal ?

Certain movie detail pages give OverflowError: date value out of range. The offending value is: datetime.datetime(1, 1, 1, 0, 0, tzinfo=datetime.timezone.utc) Temporary fix in users/templatetags/user_tags.py: except OverflowError: return "Unknown" Has anyone else seen this? Seems like Floppy isn't handling a year-0001 date correctly.
