Changelog¶

All notable changes to Media Booster for end users.

[1.3.6] - 2026-03-20¶

Bug Fixes¶

Fixed non-transparent PNGs (e.g. technical drawings) being corrupted during WebP/AVIF conversion — alpha channel was incorrectly activated on RGB images, making output nearly invisible

[1.3.5] - 2026-03-06¶

Bug Fixes¶

Fixed admin dashboard progress not updating in real-time during processing — switched to direct SQL reads for consistency with background worker writes and added cache-busting to status polling
Fixed "Last Run" timestamp showing stale or missing values after starting a new processing run

[1.3.4] - 2026-03-06¶

Bug Fixes¶

Fixed sparse images (technical drawings, diagrams) being destroyed by lossy AVIF/WebP compression — now uses lossless mode which is both smaller and pixel-perfect
Removed unused media_version_id column from log table (media entity has no versioning)

[1.3.3] - 2026-03-06¶

Bug Fixes¶

Fixed "Convert All Again" not regenerating AVIF/WebP files — conversion was skipped when the target file already existed on disk, so redo operations had no effect

[1.3.2] - 2026-03-06¶

Bug Fixes¶

Fixed queue messages being processed synchronously in the HTTP request instead of in the background — admin UI no longer blocks until all batches complete

[1.3.1] - 2026-03-06¶

Bug Fixes¶

Fixed reset task endpoint not dispatching batches after resetting, leaving processing stuck
Fixed footer buttons overflowing and reset being blocked after a completed run
Renamed buttons for clarity and added confirmations for destructive actions

[1.3.0] - 2026-03-06¶

Improvements¶

Replaced fragile chain-dispatch queue architecture with pre-dispatch — all media IDs are now queried upfront, split into batches, and dispatched at once so each batch is independent and the queue can no longer stall mid-run
Processing progress is now tracked at batch level instead of per-item, reducing database writes during processing
Running state auto-clears when all items are handled, and stuck-state timeout reduced from 30 to 10 minutes for faster recovery

Bug Fixes¶

Fixed potential queue stall where a single failed batch could stop all subsequent batches from processing

[1.2.1] - 2026-03-06¶

Bug Fixes¶

Fixed admin dashboard crash ("createNotificationError is not a function") caused by missing notification mixin
Improved progress card footer button layout — actions are now grouped logically with proper spacing

[1.2.0] - 2026-03-05¶

New Features¶

Added configurable frontend extension priority setting — choose whether AVIF, WebP, or original format is served to visitors
Processing errors are now persisted to the database and survive across queue worker restarts, making them reliably visible in the admin dashboard
Renamed Twig filter from webla_as_webp to webla_as_converted to reflect AVIF/WebP support

Bug Fixes¶

Fixed extension priority setting not working due to missing SystemConfigService injection
Fixed error timestamps not displaying in admin dashboard (key mismatch between storage and template)
Fixed various pipeline issues: infinite loops, race conditions, query performance, data safety, UI polish, deduplication, UTF-8 safety, and dead code cleanup

Improvements¶

Reduced database queries during batch processing by ~80% — progress counts are now accumulated in memory and flushed once per batch instead of per item

[1.1.1] - 2026-03-05¶

New Features¶

Sparse images (diagrams, technical drawings, line art) are now automatically detected and converted at higher quality (minimum 95) to preserve thin lines and text
Added per-task "Redo" buttons in admin dashboard — reset and reprocess just Resize, Convert, or SEO individually without clearing all data

Bug Fixes¶

Fixed AVIF/WebP conversion destroying thin lines on technical drawings and diagrams due to aggressive lossy compression at moderate quality settings

[1.1.0] - 2026-03-05¶

New Features¶

Error notifications in admin dashboard now show as user-facing alerts instead of silent console errors

Bug Fixes¶

Fixed out-of-memory crash (2GB limit) on large media libraries by clearing Doctrine's entity manager between batches
Fixed entire processing run aborting when a single batch fails (e.g., due to special characters in filenames) — failed batches are now skipped and processing continues
Fixed total media count query triggering Flysystem path validation on media with special characters

Improvements¶

Shopware Context is now properly passed through the entire service call chain instead of creating default contexts
Processing automatically stops after 3 consecutive batch failures to prevent infinite loops

[1.0.8] - 2026-03-05¶

Fixed¶

Fixed processing crash when media filenames contain special Unicode characters (soft hyphens, non-breaking spaces) that Flysystem rejects during entity loading — affected items are now skipped and marked as failed

[1.0.7] - 2026-03-05¶

Fixed¶

Fixed batch processing getting permanently stuck when a single image fails (corrupted file, unsupported format) — failed items are now logged and skipped instead of causing infinite retry loops
Fixed misleading progress display showing "32 / 3468 (41.5%)" — now shows handled/total with breakdown of processed, skipped, and failed items

[1.0.6] - 2026-03-05¶

Fixed¶

Fixed SQL syntax error on MariaDB when fetching unprocessed media IDs (LIMIT parameter was quoted as string)

[1.0.5] - 2026-03-05¶

Fixed¶

Fixed 500 error on status API caused by missing DBAL Connection dependency in ProgressService

[1.0.4] - 2026-03-05¶

Fixed¶

Fixed memory exhaustion on large media libraries by replacing PHP-loaded ID lists with SQL subqueries
Fixed memory accumulation in long-running worker by replacing entity search+write with DBAL UPSERT
Fixed memory pressure from batch processing by explicitly releasing entities and forcing GC between batches
Fixed Imagick pixel cache memory leak by calling clear() before destroy() on instances
Fixed infinite processing loop when media files are missing from disk (now logged as skipped)
Fixed infinite partial batches when lock failures were not counted toward batch size
Fixed slow status API polling by using SQL aggregation instead of loading all log entries
Fixed stuck processing state by auto-clearing isRunning state after 30 minutes
Fixed counter corruption from concurrent run requests (now rejected with 409)
Fixed incorrect AVIF convert total count due to wrong extension list
Fixed premature polling stop due to race condition in runTask()
Fixed repeated processing of already-converted files (now logged to exclude from future runs)
Fixed repeated processing of within-bounds images during resize (now logged to exclude from future runs)
Recent processing errors are now collected and surfaced in the status API response

[1.0.3] - 2026-01-23¶

Added¶

Automatic AVIF/WebP delivery: Logos and theme images now automatically use converted versions without requiring template changes
AVIF support in Twig filter with priority order: AVIF > WebP > Original
Warning in server status when GD is used for AVIF conversion (recommends Imagick)

Fixed¶

Fixed progress counters resetting on every batch instead of only at run start
Fixed total counts changing mid-run when new media is uploaded
Fixed PHP timeout during AVIF conversion with GD library on large images (>4 megapixels now skipped)

Changed¶

Dashboard labels now clearly distinguish "All-Time Statistics" from "Current Run Progress"
Twig filter now checks for AVIF first, then WebP, for optimal compression

[1.0.2] - 2026-01-23¶

Fixed¶

Fixed "Palette image not supported by webp" error when converting PNG images with indexed colors (logos, icons, simple graphics)
Fixed GIF to WebP/AVIF conversion (GIF images are always palette-based)
Fixed progress percentage showing >100% when running conversion multiple times
Fixed progress not updating when all images are already converted (skipped)
Improved alpha channel handling for transparent PNG images

Added¶

Display failed image count in admin dashboard progress section
Error message when resize is started without max dimensions configured

Changed¶

Progress counters now reset when starting a new processing run
Enhanced error messages for conversion failures now include the actual warning
