Missing content

---

There are several files without Intro/Opening, Outro/Ending or Preview. Some people cut them out to save space so they can fit more episodes on one CD.
But since Intros/Outros are part of the anime/episode we are adding comments about them missing or being incomplete to the file.
Furthermore sometimes scenes get cut out. Missing footage should get reported as well if possible. In such cases set the file to censored as well.

Examples
Intro missing
Outro missing
Preview missing
Intro/Outro/Preview missing
Intro incomplete
Outro incomplete
Preview incomplete
x minute[s] of footage missing (<timecode>)*)

*) Set "censored" too

Special versions

Special versions are "Director's Cuts", "Remastered Versions" and such.
If such a special version has a different name, e.g. the "2003 Renewal Edition" of NGE: EoE, use that name for the comment.

Features

Audiochannel, -bitrate and -codec

---

As the current system doesn't support the input of more than 1 audiostream and audiochannels at all please enter the data the way described below.

• If the file contains 2 or more audiostreams and not all have the same number of channel add the language as well.
• To identify the different audiostreams use a 3 character countrycode.
  
• For codec just use the shortnames. (AAC, Ogg, Mp3, ...)
• If you want to enter channels, bitrate and codec set a ; between the data and put bitrate first, followed by codec and channels last.
  

Audio (<language>): <bitrate> kBit/s; <codec>; <channel> channel

Note:

DON'T list stereo (2 channel) as thats standard it's not neccessary to add.

Examples
Audio: 1 channel
Audio: 5.1 channel
Audio (eng): 1 channel
Audio (jap): 5.1 channel
Audio (eng): 112 kBit/s
Audio (jap): 100 kBit/s

Languages

Audio/Subtitles

---

Currently its not possible to add different audio/subtitle combinations to a file than the default ones. So if there is a file with e.g. Japanese, English and Spanish audio only Japanese and English can be added as audio track.
If there is a file with more audio/subtitle tracks you can post a comment about it in the description field.

• Commentary streams are to be marked like this: English (commentary) or Japanese (commentary)
• purely Instrumental streams are to be marked Instrumental

Examples
Additional dubs: English, English (commentary), German, Instrumental, Italian
Additional subs: Dutch, German, Russian, Spanish

External subtitles

---

For some raw videos external subtitle files (.ssa/.srt/.sub&.idx) are available. To make sure people get the right subtitle files for their raw video a comment is added to the subtitle files.

Examples
External subtitles for fid xxxx *)
External subtitles for fid xxxx, yyyy, zzzz
External subtitles for fid xxx1-xxx5
External subtitles for [AHQ] release **)

*) xxxx represents the fileid (fid) of the video the subtitle file was made for
**) this is only used for big subtitle batches for a whole anime (e.g. O1 Subtitles) atm. might get changed
