| I put the file size limit in about 3 years ago, noting that it "works ~5% faster with video-only folders, and works much faster if there are other files with small size". One suggestion was to make the threshold configurable through Settings dialog, though I eventually decided against that. To be honest, I'm not sure if it still has the same performance advantage after all the changes I've made throughout the last couple of years. I should check it again sometime. |
| Not sure if this had to be here or in features :/ For animes like Black Lagoon, Fate/Zero, Kakumeiki Valvrave, etc. where the second season just continue with the ep number from the last season and not start over the recognition fails if the fansub group left that instead of naming it like it's in MAL. Said that Kakumeiki Valvrave - 13 is in MAL Kakumeiki Valvrave S2 - 01 Can yo do something about that? is like subtract the number of episodes of the first season and update it in the seccond season. |
| If I remember correctly, MAL doesn't allow to pull sequel/prequel data from API, so unfortunately there's no way for Taiga to get the necessary information for that. I think several titles are hardcoded to work like this though. |
 |
| First, I must say that I'm glad that Taiga recognizes "[" and "]" as delimiters which allows Chinese sub groups formats to be recognized. But here are a few that doesn't work. File name: "[異域字幕組][漆黑的子彈][Black Bullet][11][1280x720][繁体].mp4" Expected result: Black Bullet Episode 11 by 異域字幕組 Observed result: Media nor recognized. 漆黑的子彈 Episode 11 by 異域字幕組 Adding 漆黑的子彈 as an alternative title works. However, I don't understand why it doesn't recognize "Black Bullet." File name: [AoJiaoZero][Mangaka-san to Assistant-san to the Animation] 02 [BIG][X264_AAC][720P].mp4 Expected result: Mangaka-san to Assistant-san to the Animation Episode 02 by AoJiaoZero Observed result: Media nor recognized. 02 by AoJiaoZero Could not find a alternative title that works except the entire file name. |

LordGravewish said: A problem recognizing a few files this season for the "Futsuu no Joshikousei ga [Locodol] Yatte Mita." anime For example, FFF's torrent is named [FFF] Futsuu no Joshikousei ga [Locodol] Yatte Mita. - 01 [BAD09C76].mkv but Taiga recognizes the type as "Other", the title as Futsuu no Joshikousei ga and doesn't detect the episode number. Same for DeadFish's release.Brackets are normally used as grouping delimiters that separate release information from anime title and episode number. In this case, "[Locodol]" is a part of the anime title, which throws off Taiga's filename parser. But here's the good news: Taiga's going to switch to Anitomy in v1.2, which is able to tolerate this error. I've just tested it, and it correctly parsed FFF's release.

In the first case, since all tokens are grouped inside brackets, Taiga has to make an assumption. So it assumes that the first one is the fansub group and the second is the anime title. In the second case, since there is something outside brackets, Taiga thinks that it must be the anime title. This is another example of a bad naming convention. |
| Thats weird, when I first started P4Golden Taiga didn't recognize it and I had to tick the checkbox "Use the first alternative Title" and added "Persona 4 - The Golden Animation" to the textbox Here's the file name: [HorribleSubs] Persona 4 - The Golden Animation - 01 [720p].mkv I'm running on JP locale, maybe it had something to do with that..or I don't know, maybe it was by chance that Taiga didn't recognized it. |
          |
| That can't be the problem, because Taiga ignores whitespace, dashes, and even "The". Both titles are converted to "Persona4GoldenAnimation" before comparison. So, adding "Persona 4 - The Golden Animation" as an alternative title doesn't make any difference. My system locale is set to Japanese too, so that can't be it either. The only thing that I can think of is that the anime wasn't in your list before you first started watching it, otherwise I don't see any reason for it to be not recognized. |
| This program seems to have trouble recognising anime folder names. For example, in one of my specified anime folders there is a folder called: "Seirei no Moribito - Guardian of the Spirit (Dual-Audio)[720p] mHD" The anime name is Seirei no Moribito, and it is clearly a part of the folder's name, so why isn't it recognised? Or it only works for exact 1 to 1 matches? |
| It has to be an exact match. Think about it: If not, how would Taiga distinguish all the anime that have similar titles? There are lots of them out there, partially matching another. Taiga doesn't assume that "Seirei no Moribito - Guardian of the Spirit" is the same as "Seirei no Moribito", because there could very well be another anime with that name. In this case, you should either rename the folder or add "Seirei no Moribito - Guardian of the Spirit" as an alternative title for the series. Same thing goes for filenames: For "Moribito Ep.01.mkv" to be recognized, you'll need to add "Moribito" as an alternative title. Basically, when the alternatives provided by MAL aren't enough, you need to add your own. |

I forgot, when the first episode was subbed, P4G wasn't listed on MAL. That was probably the cause. ^^ I remembered it wasn't listed because I did a search and nothing came up, I searched again a couple of hours after and the results appeared. |

| I don't mind using the manual alternative titles feature, but "Akame ga Kill" does not get recognized, simply because the `!` is missing from the file name. Personally I find this perhaps a little bit much, to risky to change this because it will screw up on shows with multiple seasons? Going through my list a bit, Taiga will recognize a preview video as an actual episode, this can easily be blacklisted by checking for certain combinations like "_pv_", "[pv]" and "preview", 3 tags that will filter out a lot of these cases. In a program of my own I got a function that checks for this, it takes the file name with all _ instead of spaces, and then checks for combinations like the few above, and some more, if I remember correctly. But the principle remains the same, filtering a few tags we know are not suppose to be recognized as episodes in the first place. I doubt either of these will see change, specially the first. But posting anyway for knowledge sake. |

But posting anyway for knowledge sake. A good way to get rid of the PV altogether is to increase the time that Taiga takes to update to like 10 minutes, this way previews or music videos will never mess with your list. And yes, that's the reason why the first thing you mentioned is that way, it's quite annoying but it's better for the user to change that manually themselves than to go through every anime with a symbol and somehow change the titles to fit everyone's preferences. |
 |
| You missunderstood my point, I meant the recognition when trying to play an episode from my list. For example, I have (the original) Rozen Maiden in my PtW list, but Taiga recognizes I have episode 3 on my hard drive.. which by the way, I don't actually have. When I try to play the episode, it opens up the preview of Rozen Maiden S3 from last year. Hens my suggestion to add a small filter, which shouldn't impact performance by more then a incomparable low margin, filtering out previews from being recognized. |
|
| Could you post the full filenames of misrecognized PVs? |
| [Asenshi] Rozen Maiden 3 - PV [CA57F300].mkv It is being recognized as Rozen Maiden episode 3. |
|
Zenas said: [Asenshi] Rozen Maiden 3 - PV [CA57F300].mkv It is being recognized as Rozen Maiden episode 3. That's weird, I thought Taiga only counted the number after the "-" as far as episodes went. |
|
| That would be a terrible idea, because that would mean the - becomes required in the file name, and there are way to many occurrences where it is not used. |

Zenas said: That would be a terrible idea, because that would mean the - becomes required in the file name, and there are way to many occurrences where it is not used. You think? Personally I don't think I ever came across a release that didn't have the [group] show - episode [xxxp][numbers].mkv or similar enough format, and that's pretty much the standard today, except for movies or OVAs since those don't really have episodes. And it doesn't really need to have the "-" because if Taiga sees that there's only 1 episode then there's no point in checking for which episode it is. |
|
| Correct, but it IS the standard. But there are always exceptions. And with Taiga trying to keep a high compatibility with recognition. |
|
| When I finish downloading from a torrent via Taiga it'll show up as available on the progress bar but when I middle click (play next episode in my case) it'll bring up my torrent client and say if I want to load the trackers (basically it downloads the torrent again and tries to download it eventhough it already knows the file is there), the problem is fixed if I press F5 on Taiga but yeah, basically Taiga detects the new episode but doesn't at the same time. |

Mary Bell (DVD) - 01v2 [h-b] Mary Bell (DVD) - 02 [h-b] Mary Bell (DVD) - 03 [h-b] It's not because Taiga thinks the anime title is "Mary Bell (DVD)". It's because Taiga isn't able to parse the episode number. While parsing the filename, Taiga encounters a known keyword, "DVD". It assumes that the episode number must always come before that, so it ignores the " - 03 " part. Note that when you open the files manually, Taiga thinks you're playing the first episode, even if you play the third one. The good news is that I've just tried the same files with Anitomy, the filename parser that's going to replace Taiga's current parser in v1.2. It successfully found everything, including the episode number. |
goody2shoes said: I just had a problem getting Taiga to recognize my Kino's Journey batch. It has an unusual naming scheme. The files don't contain the show's name, but they have the episode number and title. Like this: 01 - Land of Visible Pain.mkv Is it possible this will be supported in the future? Highly doubt it, not even MAL has the info with the episodes' names for every anime. I imagine it could be possible to make it so Taiga reads the folder and adds it's name behind each file so it thinks everything in the folder is part of that show (I already think it does this but not sure). |

| When watching "Seitokai Yakuindomo", file name: "[Coalgirls]_Seitokai_Yakuindomo_01_(1280x720_Blu-Ray_FLAC)_[F94958E7]", Taiga thinks I'm watching "Seitokai Yakuindomo*" I thought the "*" at the end was required for Taiga to even recognize "Seitokai Yakuindomo*" like how the "!" is required in "K-On!" and other series. I think I suggested this before but I'll mention it again, please make it so when you start an anime through Taiga (right-click > play episode) then Taiga will only recognize that entry and mark that as playing and not some other one, this would fix a lot of problem if it's possible to implement. |
|
| v1.2 handles anime titles differently, which takes care of the issue where punctuation makes a difference. |
| Can I ask something? My BD archive is like this Anime folder/Season folder/Episodes (named Episode 1, Episode 2,...) Can Taiga recognize this? |
| Opinions are subjective, but I will listen to yours and I'll be glad if you can listen to mine |
| How about making it so Taiga prioritizes main titles? For example, I downloaded Loups=Garous and instead of being associated with the "Loups=Garous" entry the one that picked it up was the "Loups=Garous Pilot" one which has "Loups=Garous" as a secondary title (and this also has the problem of thinking the Pilot one is the one playing), I imagine this will be fixed in v1.2 but just pointing it out anyway. It's also strange because pressing F5 to scan for episodes didn't associate the file with the "Loups=Garous" entry (I'm guessing this is because it was associated to something else already), I had to right-click and scan available episodes. Also, can you make it so Taiga only associates folders to entries if you manually do it or if there's a video file inside? I think I mentioned this before too and someone said something similar in the suggestions but I have my music folder in the same place as my anime one and Taiga keeps associating entries to the music folders when there isn't any video files inside them and I've to manually change it. (I think what I suggested before was to make it so Taiga changes associated folders automatically if it scans episodes somewhere that isn't the folder associated to that entry.) |

| Yeah, it's quite uncommon for a filename to have release information between the anime title and the episode number. Nevertheless, just tested it with the upcoming release, which has an improved parser, and it got recognized correctly: http://i.imgur.com/vhWrHjK.png |
| Could you give a link to that KMK Player? Google redirects me to KMPlayer when I search for it. |
| There's no other way. And this is all you need to do: http://i.imgur.com/tZ5QYVX.gif Also make sure that KMPlayer is enabled at Settings → Recognition → Media players. With that, the latest version of KMPlayer (3.9.1.134) works just fine. |

Paulo27 said: [ReinForce] The Rolling Girls - SP1 (BDRip 1920x1080 x264 FLAC).mkv is somehow recognized as this: I'd guess that Taiga failed to identify the filename, and then got that irrelevant anime from the directory name. What's the full path of the file? Does one of the upper directories match one of the alternative titles (e.g. "Extra")? Note: Please post your issues to the related thread if you're using v1.2 beta, so that I don't get confused on the issue. I had to look at the screenshot for visual clues to determine which version you use :) |
