Oki, this is getting slightly annoying. ^^;

When I'm browsing animes I see an episode with files where I don't have any files, so I expand it only to see that it's a generic file. bleh...

So, feature request:

Please make the + mark on the episode line a different color (like white) if there's no "real" file added for the episode. (This plus mark: http://www.anidb.net/pics/plus.gif)

Slightly different request here:

Please don't show generic files in the file list at all, but instead provide a way for adding them to one's list and such directly from the episode, without expanding.

well,

once all eps have generic files you would notice immediately bc an ep with only one file would always mean that it is a generic file.

however i see your point, showing a different "+" image if only a generic file is added for an ep seems like a good idea.

the other request, well i guess that would also be a way to "solve" this.
i see two problems there though.
a) generic files would need special internal handling on the anime page (not trivial)
b) it might be confusing if the different filebased actions (i.e. mark watched) would sometimes appear on ep and sometimes on file level (depending on whether one has a normal or generic file)

BYe!
