Recognition problems: post here

Yeah, it works! Thanks for the quick reply :)
This was the first time I've used the "Override Anime Name" feature. I knew it was somewhere in the episodes right-click settings, so after renaming it in MALU, it recognizes them.

At first, I tried renaming the files according to the exact title, but since no colons are allowed in the name and since only "Nekomonogatari 01" failed, too, I've only added the folder manually and used the manual updating feature.

Not recognized:

Fate Zero (2012) - 01[2012][UTW](D0E76642)[AniDB] through
Fate Zero (2012) - 11v2[2012][UTW](544CD7E0)[AniDB] being recognized as Fate Zero season 1.

Tried changing file name to Fate Zero (Season 02) -01 and the updater still called it Season 1.

Not surprised.

I have so many problems with mal updater. The program file disappears when I tried to open it. When I trying to update it gives me a network error (0) after reinstalling it. I tried to reinstalling it the second time and after I type my name for the profile it gives me an error "Error creating user folders". Somebody please help me right now!

Also. Please fix the special fronts that have an error with twitter.

Do you use Avast or Norton?

I have Avast and still works fine with this until now.

Can't recognize all series with names like this
[Yousei-raws] Magi - The Labyrinth of Magic 16 [BDrip 1920x1080 x264 FLAC].mkv

Still getting an "error creating user folders" message and I have Avast which is looks fine till now and still is fine on another computer when I used this program. Please help me.

[HorribleSubs] Saekano - 01 [720p]

Saekano is in alternative names, but prolly because it's "Saekano: How to Raise a Boring Girlfriend", malu gets confused.

[DeadFish] Durarara!!x2 Shou - 02 [720p][AAC]
[HorribleSubs] Durarara!! X2 - 01 [480p]
Depends on subber, some have space before "X2". Overriding search name with "Durarara" or "Shou" doesn't let full scan find them either.

[Thunder] Aldnoah Zero - 13 [720p]
[DeadFish] Aldnoah.Zero 2nd Season - 02 [720p][AAC]
Can't find. Override as "Aldnoah" or "2nd" doesn't work either. Ep13 refers to 2nd Season ep1. So the count depends on which subber, whether they mention "2nd Season" or not. It's messy, so maybe just support one of the counters.

[HorribleSubs] Yamada-kun and the Seven Witches - 01 [720p]

http://myanimelist.net/anime/28677/Yamada-kun_to_7-nin_no_Majo_(TV)

Would it be possible to have MALU recognize this?

I'm reasonably sure it isn't doing it because the english isn't listed as an alternative title so maybe we should ask someone to do that?

[BakedFish] Mobile Suit Gundam_ Iron-Blooded Orphans - 04 [720p][AAC]
[DeadFish] Mobile Suit Gundam_ Iron-Blooded Orphans - 03v2 [720p][AAC]
http://myanimelist.net/anime/31251/Mobile_Suit_Gundam:_Iron-Blooded_Orphans

Not recognized, it seems to match toward "Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin" (in my ptw). Overriding search name to "Orphans" doesn't help.

[HorribleSubs] Tales of Zestiria the X - 01 [480p].mkv
http://myanimelist.net/anime.php?id=30911&referer=malupdater

-Not recognized at all

[HorribleSubs] Berserk - 01 [480p].mkv
http://myanimelist.net/anime.php?id=32379&referer=malupdater

-Recoginzed as the older Berserk season
-over rid the name to [Berserk] still recognizes the file as the previous season.
If I had to rename the file [Berserk 2016] it would be easier to manually update it instead of having to rename each newly Downloaded Episode.

LOVE MALU btw xD

DAYS - 03 (1280x720 HEVC2 AAC).mkv
http://myanimelist.net/anime.php?id=32494&referer=malupdater

is being recognized as 91 Days in the torrents plugin.

91 Days is in my list. DAYS is not. Presumably, the number in the name is getting ignored, which is causing the match.

For some reason MPC isn't being detected no matter what video I play. I just recently found out that KCP was no longer being updated ( was using a version from like Auguest last year lol ) so started using this: https://imouto.my/tutorials/watching-h264-videos-using-compute-unified-device-architecture-cuda/

I was using the 32-bit MPC beforehand but the one above uses 64-bit. Is that why it's not being detected? I already have MPC (all versions) added in the Anime Recognition settings.

VLC works perfectly fine and is being detected.

Pot Player v1.6.63891 english is not being recognized at all. Is there a way to fix this?

I'm having this problem too.

It seems that english pot player isn't supported anymore. Switch to Taiga, it's working great for me ;)

Recognition problems with Monster episodes 11 and 41:


I'm taking it, MALU doesn't like additional numbers in the middle of an episode title, right?

I'm including my found problems at my newer anime folder, too.
Informations:
MAL Updater v. 2.97
internal Harddrive.
using the japanese equivalent of standard types (?, /, :) for correct names.

Kore wa Zombie Desu ka？ OVA [HD][BD][JapDub][EngDub] → playing Kore wa Zombie desu ka? 01

Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku wo! 2 OVA [FHD][BD][EngSub] → not recognized
if, using the MAL entry → plays [NoobSubs] Monogatari Series： Second Season - 01 Tsubasa Tiger, Part One [FHD][BD][8Bit]

Magical☆Star Kanon 100% [FHD][BD][EngSub] → won't be recognized

Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu ka？？ [FHD][EngSub] → playing Gochuumon? 1

Gintama → playing as Gintama' [FHD][EngSub]

[USS] Psycho-Pass 2 - 01 The Scales of Justice 299／300 [FHD][BD] → not recognized

Youjo Shenki Episode 0 [HD] → instead plays Youjo Shenki Episode 1 [HD]

JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken： Stardust Crusaders Egypt Arc [FHD][EngSub] → no recognition, instead plays JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken


I hope it helps for fixing problems :)

Hello!

First of all, thank you for your hard work on the updater.

I've started using the VLC player version you install through the windows store and MALU doesn't pick up any plays.

Is this player supported or only the desktop version one?

Thanks in advanse for your help!

Not recognized: https://myanimelist.net/anime/31043/Boku_dake_ga_Inai_Machi

example video file name: "01 - Flashing Before My Eyes.mkv"

tried to override the name to "erased", but it didn't help.

Do the titles have to include the name of the show for it to work?

Obviously it does. Neither MALU or MAL really have episode titles. And even if they had, it'd be a hell of a mess if titles would be recognized by ep titles. You need either "Boku dake ga Inai Machi" or "Erased" (since you overwrote the name in MALU apparently - without API, MALU won't recognize anime by alternative titles ATM, I think) before episode number.

Thanks for your answer; I had tested it and it seems like there needs to be information about the episode in the "title" section of the meta-data.

I don't want to become too unappreciative after having been one of the people requesting offline functionality, but lately, I haven't been using MALU at all.

Oh yeah, though I don't know if it's possible to do it automagically by MALU now without API access, but you can also use them tags, MALID ep number etc is codded in it, and it goes at the end of the filename, like CRC checksums.

It sucks to not have API access. Anyway, I won't rewatch Erased anytime soon, plus I'll just wait patiently for a solution to the disabled API.
