Group infobox with language [done]

Post by Arnaud013 »

Usually, groups do all their releases in the same language in a serie. So, in the group infobox, why not adding the language used for the 1st ep so that we can clearly see who made it complete and in which language?

Thanks

If you replace "first ep" with "last ep the group released", I'd be all for it ^^

As it's basically the same, I <insert some royal ceremony thingie here> allow your request to change mine.

Would be really useful so please help leechers by making this.

Thanks again

hm,

wouldn't simply expanding the first ep on the anime page take care of that?
if you're trying to decide which group to choose you'll do that anyway (i.e. to check the quality, file type, ...), right?

BYe!

Besides, that feauture is impossible to implement unless there's a way to specify multiple sub languages per file. ;)

Good hint, Elberet... :D

@ EXP: btw, has this issue already been discussed somewhere (subs with multiple languages) ?

Currently you can add a 'comment' to a file, apparently, as to be seen Tsukihime ep 1 by ZX.
It shows jap dub, together with eng subs and a comment. A mouseover for that comment shows a bit of information, but clicking on the fid shows the entire comment at the bottom of the new page.
That`s at least one improvised way of presenting several sublanguages for the moment ;)

The comment is free-text information, however. It's not useable in database queries (since it is effectively impossible to analyze and search in it without tremendous CPU usage), so my point remains. Any feauture that is supposed to deal with subtitle languages and use them as a filter or grouping criterium is impossible to implement properly unless... yeah. ;)
