This only applies to animes that have both an uncensored and a censored version. If it only has one, leave this setting as the default: Unknown. | This only applies to animes that have both an uncensored and a censored version. If it only has one, leave this setting as the default: Unknown. | ||

*Although there have never been any written rules; ''quality is usually bound to source''. Ie. DVD -> very high, DTV -> high, VHS -> low, etc.. It is generally ok to follow this scheme, but don't go about creqing just because of it. There are many good reasons for not following it. | *Although there have never been any written rules; ''quality is usually bound to source''. Ie. DVD -> very high, DTV -> high, VHS -> low, etc..

==Source== | ===Source=== | ||
Here you can set the source of the raw (unsubbed) anime. If you don't know the source, leave it as "unknown". If you find a tag like "(S)VHS" or "DVD" in the filename, choose the according option from the dropdown-menu. | Here you can set the source of the raw (unsubbed) anime.

Sometimes, it's ok to make an educated guess: For animes that are released fansubbed shortly (within days/weeks) after they aired in Japan, you can safely assume "DTV" (Digital TV) as source. Another case for educated guessing is "HKDVD" (Hongkong-DVD) - the video-quality may be ok for them, but the translation is usually horrible, which is how you can spot them. | Sometimes, it's ok to make an educated guess: For animes that are released fansubbed shortly (within days/weeks) after they aired in Japan, you can safely assume "DTV" (Digital TV) as source.

When creqing this field you should provide some sort of proof unless the old value is obviously wrong or set to "unknown". This means that you should be sure about the change and not just base it on assumptions. For example, don't creq DTV -> HDTV based on resolution/quality/filesize/etc. only. | When creqing this field you should provide some sort of proof unless the old value is obviously wrong or set to "unknown".

== | ===Video Flags=== | ||
*Clean video: set this flag if there is nothing hardsubbed in this file. RAWs are always clean. | |||
*Wrong Aspect Ratio: If the file was encoded with the wrong viewing aspect ratio, check this box. One way to tell whether this is true is if what should be a circle on the screen isn't completely round, but rather elliptic. | |||
==Aspect Ratio== | |||
==Trivial fields== | |||
These fields can be supplied manually when adding, but not creqed. They should be automatically set by [[avdump]] and are not possible to change after verification. | |||
===Length=== | |||
How many hours, minutes and seconds the file lasts. Just check in your favourite media player. If you have a file that won't display its length correctly, try to use [[avdump]] to determine the length. | |||
===Resolution=== | |||
The actual pixel resolution of the video. <tt>Width x Height</tt>. It should not be confused with display (playback) resolution. | |||
===Aspect Ratio=== | |||
The playback aspect ratio of the video. | |||
===Video Codec=== | ===Video Codec=== | ||
===Video Bitrate=== | ===Video Bitrate=== | ||
===FPS=== | ===FPS=== | ||
Frames per second. This should be set to 0 if the video is VFR. | |||
