Hoi everyone!

This is release 5.9.0 of FPD.

Thanks to everyone on our Discord and on GitHub who helped in beta testing, finding bugs, requesting features etc.

Important Changes

Re 15210f9 The downloader now uses a new attachment db & async yeild for video processing! This removes the need for the forceFullSearch setting which has been removed and improves video handling across the board from discovery to recovery to better supporting the now common multiple video (attachment) per post structure of many floatplane exclusives and other posts.

Switching to the new attachment db does mean that the old db is no longer used and that the latest few videos may redownload when you update, you can just delete the old duplicates.

Floatplane "Posts" that contain multiple videos are no longer downloaded as multiple parts of the same video but as separate videos with each video's title (if it has one) appended to the posts title. Video titles also now have channel title filtering re-enabled so they are cleaner, if you want this to apply to all previous videos you will need to redownload from scratch unfortunately.

The good news is that going forward using the new attachment db that any video changes can be tracked so if a video is uploaded on the LMG channel and then switched to the TechLinked channel for example the downloader will move it.

If you are someone who has the entire archive downloaded and wants the fixes for video titles and multi video posts you are recommended to redownload the entire archive with a clean install as there is unfortunately no way to easily migrate these changes over.
