...It works now... -_-

Prince of Tennis Nationals Semifinals.

I had to rename it to the EXACT name. I never had to do that before with episode 5. Before it detected it as Prince of Tennis OVA Semifinal, which is how [Your-Mom] names the files.

And you know damn well I use MPC. >_>;

Super release Kotori :D

I am having an issue though. When I try to do a manual update MALu doesn't send the info, it just sits there. Works fine with auto-update.


Notice how Mahoraba's update button is grayed out? That's all I can get it to do.

Separate issue: The status seems to be a little confused, it never changes from "No players found" even if I have MPC open. It'll read a media file and report that it is now playing, but as soon as I stop playing it the status will revert back to "No players found"

Kotori,

check out what happens if you press update, when there is no internet connection

I experimented a little: change score, pressed update, while blocking everything with a firewall

I had to restart MALU

Did this happen in the previous version? Was the scheduler running while you clicked? Can you try a few times in different circumstances? I can't reproduce the problem here :(

That's intended; maybe I should change the messsage "no players" by "no media found". If you close the player, the scheduler stops; also if you change to another anime before the udpate takes place.

Well, you are expected to be online to update :p
It can be specially tricky when using a firewall since the app thinks it's still online; it's a bit different than when you are really offline, it should show an error message.

I never tried manual update in a previous version so I couldn't tell you if it worked or not D: The scheduler wasn't running. I've tried many times on different anime with the same result. Restarted computer, reinstalled MALu, I've done everything I can think of :(

Does manual update send info in a different way than auto-update? Maybe it's a router issue like port forwarding or something..

Oh, I thought it said "MPC detected" or something similar in previous versions when MPC was open but no media was playing xD

hmm can you give me more details? is it only some anime that it won't detect? or any at all?

Before, just kenshin was enough to identify it but it seems it requires rurouni kenshin or it won't recognize it
Not much of a problem except I have to rename a lot of anime, o well ^^


Ahh yeah. That's actually a bug fix. While it identified some names that now won't, it will also prevent false matches. You could use the batch rename tool under tray menu/tools :) (or request the single word to be added as an alternate name in the DB entry)


I've improved this a bit, recognition in those cases will be much better now. I will put the update up in a couple days after some testing, since malu now has an auto updater it shouldn't be such a pita for people having to update often.

Hmm, "MPC detected" was only during beta before the app was made public.

There isn't much difference updating manually, the final procedure that contacts MAL is the same one. If you have MSN (or some other messaging app) we could arrange a quick chat so I could send you a few test versions with various checks in place, so we could find out where it's going wrong.

omg people read the release notes, I took the time to write them and send a mass club message :p

IMPORTANT NOTE: Your themes will NO longer work with this version. I'm really sorry about that, but it was needed for the new theme styles; besides the new options, the theme engine has been redesigned to be faster and easier to add more options later on (otherwise it would be kinda slow with the old system since it has to apply styles to ALL the anime panels now)

Okie my themes do no work, even after the re-downloading them. Today, to be exact, after the update, I deleted all the old ones, and re downloaded re-extracted all my themes. Currently only 2 are working. The ones that are getting this bug are:

Basic
Basic 2
Alucard
Yuki (the one with the witch hat and guitar)

Currently working ones that I've gotten up and working are: Miku (which I didnt download at least Im pretty sure I didnt) and Sandgolem

Ok, you didn't extract them properly, it's very clear from the screenshots :p you extracted each folder inside each folder.. you must extract them in "Themes", just like I wrote in the start of this thread, and in techsuki etc :p If you notice the rars they have a folder already, so if you extract in /sandgolem, winrar obviously makes an extra folder in there.

I'm having a problem with Ayako fansub's They are my Noble Masters. MAL names them differently, but the updater doesn't pick it up. I heard that it's supposed to, but mine's doesn't. I need to manually update it. I don't rename the vid file at all.

Can you paste the filename and the player being used? It works fine for me with ayako's:

maybe using VLC? (there's a bug with it sometimes)

Ok, fixed for the next update. Meanwhile, you could rename your files by removing the "MP3" part. You can use the batch rename tool included in malu, in the tray icon menu/tools/file rename too. Simply pick the folder where you have those episodes and pick Replace "MP3" then leave the 2nd block empty, click execute.

Clannad movie: movies, ovas and double episodes are not supported yet.

I was going through my collection of anime, and when i was watching some episodes of SnS, the updater picks up ep.22 of SnS as SnS II ep. 22 (I've only seen up to ep.21) and it happens all the way to ep.24. It also happened when i watch some episodes of Mobile Suit Gundam Seed Destiny, the updater thought i was watching Mobile Suit Gundamm 00 and it updated my episodes...

yep, it's quite difficult to do a match when there are different seasons in the same listing and a perfect match fails, it resorts to partial matches and the first in the list wins.

That's a problem with anime that has no set total episodes number, like bleach; in those cases, the app will set the max. one to +10 than your last watched one. You will have to edit it manually to set it to 342 in mal, then it'll go up to 352 in the updater

both the anime map of H:\ and F:\ is set in malupdater to look for anime

without looking on the F:\ where i got this anime i wanted to watch stored
