Maybe you should run some really high-prio daemon that would reboot box, when specific string is received on some port?

Better to to it on DB, as client side script will not distinguish _s from original name and _s inserted instead of space. This won't affect lots of entries (only "Niea_7" comes to mind right now), though...

Not possible, IMHO, because compression and container overheads do not allow you to compute ep. length from it's files size. 40Mb file could be anything from 1min to 20mins.

Maybe setting in profile should be added?

"Convert spaces to", so user can set it ot _ - . %20 or space itself, if he knows that his browser/client combination handle space or %20 well or if he preferes other character instead of _.

One line truncater for those, who have perl on their system. Under windows cmdline:

C:\>echo truncate(""""test1231321"""", 13) | perl

test1231321 - file name
13 - new length

exp wrote:adding an extra page which only shows the corrupted files you have in mylist would also be pretty simple. though i don't know if that is needed if AoM can already do that.
Such a page would be very useful.

[REQ] show files (and eps/anime) with missing data

Not that it is useful feature to everyone, but it would help people who want to spend time filling DB with data. So, suppose I got lots of time to hash some files, I want feature that would check mylist and show me list of all non-deleted files in mylist that don't have some checksum or video/audio ...

CRC status in ed2kdump for files already in mylist [DONE]

Right now ed2kdump shows "-" in crc status for all files with "already in list" state. I think it'd be good if ed2kdump would display crc status for those files just like for actually added files.

Actually I often see it other way around - titles that originally use half-width are written in double width in DB. Still I think they should be represented exactly like in anime itself.

BTW, don't forget that there is full-width ‼ symbol. :P

More about punctuation: Furigana should always use ASCII (half-widht) parenthesis: (), not double-width(). Punctuation also should be preserved exactly as it is displayed inside anime/ep. Do not mix those: .  。 ・ ...  。。。 … (this one is displayed in middle of line in japanese fonts, btw) ? ! , and ?...

For katakana it would be a good idea to write those parts in CAPITAL LETTERS . For hiragana only small letters should be used and kanji could be written starting with a Capital Letter . This would be consequent and the romaji carry more information about the original way the title was written this ...

Hmm... interesting. As I understand, even if somehow mysteriously all AniDB data and backups got destroyed it is possible to quickly restore everything from somebody's AoM dump, right?
