Decides the download afresh, as the files may have changed, and puts it at the back of the line. One that hasn’t failed is returned as it is. It can be refused as a new download is.

The quality asked for, original for a book.
Where a download is: queued waiting in line on the server
(queuePosition says where); preparing its subtitles or conversion
being made (progress and remainingMs say how far); ready to
fetch each part’s url, and each subtitle’s; failed (reason says
why, and retry asks again).
While queued, its place in line, 1 when it’s next.
While preparing, how much is converted, from 0 to 1.
While converting, about how long it has left, once that can be told.
When failed, why: transcodeFailed, storageFull,
sourceUnreadable, subtitlesUnavailable or planUnreadable.
What a download fetches: the original file, or a conversion, an
MP4 per part made for the download.
Every track of the version, and the subtitle choice off, as a
play gives them (PlayStarted.tracks), for playing the download
offline. A track inside the downloaded file has delivery file
and its stream index in that file: in a conversion the video, the
audio, then each text track it carries, the chosen one first. A
subtitle delivered external is fetched with the download, at
url, once the download is ready; one that couldn’t be
extracted has no delivery. A choice without a delivery isn’t in
the download.
One choice of a play: a track of its version, or the subtitle choice
off, and how it shows.
object
A track’s id, or off.
A track’s type.
True for the tracks the play shows; absent otherwise.
Absent when choosing it starts a new play.
The codec it’s delivered as, such as hevc, aac or webvtt.
The video’s HDR as delivered; absent for SDR.
What a transcoded track becomes.
object
Video only; what encodes it, the accelerator’s name as GET /api/v1/accelerators gives it, such as Intel Quick Sync (QSV), or CPU.
Why the track isn’t delivered unchanged in the file, or why choosing it starts a new play, when there’s a reason to give.
The capability that failed: its field (such as maxLevel, codec
or containers), what the client declared, and what the track has.
object
The declared value, lists joined by commas; absent when the client declared none.
For file, the track’s stream index, to select it in the player.
For external, the file, relative to the API root.
For an ass subtitle delivered external, the URLs of the
fonts it uses, each once, relative to the API root:
GET /api/v1/fonts/{sha256}, cacheable for good. Load them
before drawing.
Every part’s bytes. Exact when sizeExact; until a conversion
is ready, an estimate from the quality’s cap, which a grainy
title can exceed.
sizeBytes is exact: the download is ready, or the original
goes as it is. Otherwise it’s an estimate.
The version’s parts in order; positions are on their joined timeline.
object
The part’s file, fetched with the user’s authorization and range requests.
The file’s type, as it’s served (video/mp4 for a conversion; for an original, as the version’s files are).
The file’s exact size, once ready.
The file’s strong ETag, once ready, for If-Range.
A converted file’s SHA-256 in lowercase hex, to check it once fetched.
object
The version’s markers on its timeline, in order.
A part of a video’s timeline a player offers to skip. An episode has intro, recap and credits markers, a movie credits only, any other video none. Each kind comes from an admin’s marker, else, for an episode, what the server found in its season’s audio and pictures, else the file’s own chapters (a chapter whose whole name is the marker’s: Intro, Opening Credits, OP; Recap, Previously On; Credits, End Credits, ED, where it belongs and as long as one lasts).
object
What a marker skips. A later server may add kinds; skip a marker of a kind you don’t know.
Where a marker comes from: the file’s chapters, the audio its episode shares with others in its season (and, for credits, its pictures), or an admin. A later server may add sources.
Set on final credits: nothing follows them to the video’s end but, perhaps, a next episode’s preview, so up next may appear at their start.
Once ready or failed, when the server forgets it, unless deleted sooner.
