Weird behavior when removing mylist entries [FIXED]

Elberet · Post by **Elberet** » Thu Sep 11, 2003 2:13 pm

On a recent LAN party I got SE Lain but wasn't satisfied with the quality. I deleted those files but added them to my mylist nevertheless. A while later, I also added the zx release of SE Lain and began downloading those files. Today I updated the zx files and set the first 10 to onhdd and removed all of the no-group files. I had one such file in each episode, so I was removing 13 of 26 files including 13 of 13 episodes. As a result, the whole anime does no longer show up on my mylist, even tho the zx files are still there.

The anime page for SE Lain says so as well: "MyList: 0/13 Eps", but beneith the zx files, the "file in mylist" and "on hdd" icons show up as expected.

Is this the caching problem? If so, you might want to change the mylist so that removing a file only changes the Eps-counter if there aren't any other files for the same episode...

Hoho, PLEASE find a way to 100% reproduce this, I had this bug many times and even reported it already but I can't steadily reproduce it.

Ok, here's what I'm doing right now...

1. I'm going to the anime page for Rurouni Kenshin - Reminiscence and click on the expand-all button.

2. I select eight files for the four episodes, namely all zx and all ax releases, and add those to my mylist:

Added fid: 17131, status: unwatched, [unknown]
Added fid: 17132, status: unwatched, [unknown]
Added fid: 17133, status: unwatched, [unknown]
Added fid: 17134, status: unwatched, [unknown]
Added fid: 8803, status: unwatched, [unknown]
Added fid: 8804, status: unwatched, [unknown]
Added fid: 8805, status: unwatched, [unknown]
Added fid: 8806, status: unwatched, [unknown]

3. I go to my mylist, click on "r" and expand Rurouni Kenshin. At this time, the stats are 8/4 Eps, 0/8 viewed, the anime appears in bold black indicating that it's complete but unviewed.

4. I notice that the episodes counter is wrong which wasn't the case earlier when I had been changing SE Lain, so I'll stop this experiment now. Anyhow, the two incidents make me believe that each file that is added or deleted to the mylist increments or decrements the episodes counter, regardless of whether another file for the same episode is already there or not.

By the way, SE Lain has magically appeared on my mylist again as well. It seems that the cache was refreshed, or rather rebuilt, since a few hours ago when I posted the bug report...

Once the cache is rebuilt again, I expect that the Eps counter for Rurouni Kenshin goes back to 4/4 as well. If that happens, I'll try to reproduce the SE Lain problem - and I'm pretty sure that the same thing will happen again.

I was pretty sure it would behave the same way again until it didnt, reproduce it 4-5 times in a row.

Ok, the cache has been refreshed, the episode counter is now back to 4/4. For reference, I'm on the mylist page "r", have Rurouni Kenshin expanded, select the four zx files, set the dropdown to "remove" and click "DO IT", and voilà... the whole anime's gone from the mylist. And just like with SE Lain before, the other four files are still marked as "in mylist" on the anime page.

I guess this confirms the bug...

Adding new files for known episodes: works properly.
Removing files for episodes with more then one file: works properly as well.
Removing all files for an episode: works and properly decreases the Eps counter.
Animes with 0/x+y Eps show up as well, now.

Good job, exp.
