texturecache.py (Version 1.4.5)

• Fix: Improve memory efficiency of JSON GetDirectory processing by limiting the directory cache to a fixed size - thanks @theowiesengrund for helping with testing
  
• Fix: Significantly improve memory efficiency of cast thumbnail processing - thanks @theowiesengrund for helping with testing
  
  
• Chg: Make @chunked=yes the default setting
  
• Chg: Enable HDMI with tvservice --preferred whenever xbmc quits, either normally or abnormally - this will ensure that HDMI is correctly re-enabled even after killall xbmc.bin etc.
  
• Chg: Alter missing behaviour to now consider only file types matching known audio or video file extensions (those supported by XBMC). This is to say the behaviour has changed from an exclusion to inclusion approach. Specify additional file extensions that should be included by adding comma-delimited values to audio.filetypes or video.filetypes properties. All standard XBMC audio and video file extensions are supported by default.
  
• Chg: Remove nonmedia.filetypes property as no longer has a purpose
  
• Chg: Display warning when a tv show with invalid season (season identifier < 0) is detected
  
• Chg: Search the texture cache database (s option) up to two 2 times, first with the non-encoded search term, and the second time after encoding the search term (and only then if the encoded term is different to the unencoded search term), then combining the results. This is necessary to find encoded urls used for embedded artwork (music@, video@ and also picture thumbnails)
  
  
• Rev: Revert the change that made @dbjson=no the default setting on localhost, as this should no longer be necessary when using chunked queries. When available, the TextureDB JSON API should always be used by default (whether remote or local).
  
  
• Add: When filtering media library results, the default filter field is usually title (eg. movies avatar or albums mothership). However should you wish to filter on an alternate field then specify the field name in the @filter property, eg. movies cameron @filter=director or albums "the beatles" @filter=artist
  
• Add: Specify alternate filter operator, the default opertator being contains. Use @filter.operator=<operator> where <operator> is any one of the standard filter operators. For example, jd movies 21 @filter.operator=is would return details only for the movie named "21", and not also "21 Jump Street" as would be the case when using the default contains operator.
