Your machine's H.264/HEVC encoders report support and then emit no video samples at all, which no configure-time check can see. The optimizer now test-encodes three frames per codec (cached for 30 days), shows the result as diagnostics in the modal (AVC x / VP9 (hardware) / ...), feeds the working codecs to the worker so Auto tries them first, and tells you to switch to WebM when a container has no usable encoder. Video quality is now a 10-100 slider with a predicted bitrate and size for this clip (mirroring Mediabunny's mapping), which makes the trade-off visible instead of guessing from presets.
J621
Self-hosted media library and e621 archive manager, rebuilt as a React SPA + Django REST API.
Structure
backend/ Django 6 + DRF API (SQLite in dev, MariaDB in production)
frontend/ Vite + React + TypeScript SPA
Development
Backend
cd backend
source venv/bin/activate
python manage.py migrate
python manage.py scan_files # index the watched folder
python manage.py runserver
Copy .env.example to .env and set WATCHED_FOLDER before scanning.
Frontend
cd frontend
npm install
npm run dev # http://localhost:5173, proxies /api to :8000
Production
Not wired up yet — planned: Nginx serving the SPA build, /media and /library media
directly, and proxying /api to Waitress/Django. See frontend/ design docs for the UI
specification.
