## Upgrading to 0.2.5 or 0.3.4

Existing plugin data is upgraded automatically. Make fresh database exports after

upgrading: older translation-database exports cannot be imported by these versions.

User-settings-only exports keep their existing format. Obsolete text-based rules

Multilang caches Jellyfin's responses for a configurable time, sharing the fetched

list across pages and sort orders. Current translations and user rules are applied

each time that list is used. Simultaneous requests share an in-progress fetch, and

a short burst cache also handles fast repeated requests. Library, permission and

watched-state changes invalidate affected caches. Movie and show libraries can

optionally be fetched in advance when a user becomes active.
