Re: Features/Improvements Requests

In Episodes under "set service" for each show, would it be possible to add "Crunchyroll" and "Funimation"?  Or better yet, the ability to add custom user defined services?

How popular are these? Anyone else missing Crynchyroll and/or Funimation?

They are Anime streaming channels.

Extremely. It's just that their users are far more likely to be using AniDB than Next-Episode smile

2 of the most popular anime streaming services.  Nextep tracks a lot of anime shows, so I thought it would be nice to be able to mark them with the "set service".  If it's a request not popular enough among other users, then no worries, I just thought it would be handy to have.

Hey santah
Shows that have this info:”Series no longer being developed” are still on the section: unknown next episode on watchlist. If those shows would go to cancelled section it would be easier to notice and remove them. At least in my opinion.

Periodic reminder that the option to alphabetize without articles would be greatly appreciated!

If ajbanal requests that one should be able to sort "The Expanse" as "Expanse, The" I have to agree with you, santah. smile

Re: Features/Improvements Requests

How will it cause more confusion when almost every other system uses it as the default?

Re: Features/Improvements Requests

is there any idea, or requests from people for a way to really have a user profile page?

wasted time of my life:

TV: 318 days, 18 hours, 25 mins watching - 11,089 episodes plays of 289 shows

Can you elaborate on that? What would you like to see on such a page?

Re: Features/Improvements Requests

that would take some thinking and some input from other users ( especially older ones ) not to overdue it. something simple. but not to simple, when all said and done we dont really have a profile, just a sharable list. it would be cool to have a profile pic on the right corner, some "about me" and a menu for the shows.

Hmm... not sure how many users would want that. (I don't.)

You could start by adding a forum profile pic. cool

Why redundant? The info for some shows is pulled from TheTVDB, for other shows from TVMaze.

TVMaze allows users to mark an episode as "Skipped".

May we have this, too, please?  sad

Re: Features/Improvements Requests

yeah its kind of a weird thing to do tongue but i guess we all have our way to see shows ( i did skip a few episodes, but i marked them anyway - for example, season 5 of AHS.
bt was btw tongue

redundant because, tvdb us actually just a database to retrieve data, and tvmaze in the of the day is a site like this one. its almost like publicity tongue

ok, time to add my 320 shows to this site manually xD ( the pain! )
