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>) *) x minute(s) of footage removed by group, to cut out pornography *)
*) Set "censored" too.
Opening & Endings
Specification of the content of the op/ed.
Note | Meant only for Specials (C)! |
Examples:
Credits: <Language> Lyrics: Kanji Lyrics: Kana Lyrics: Romaji Lyrics: English
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.
Examples:
Director´s Cut Remastered Version
Different Cap Sources for Raws
If a raw group puts out 2 full releases of an anime, use file comments to show which file was capped from which source. Example: ag118591, Gabriel Dropout by [Ohys-Raws]. Ohys first capped AT-X, then released a second cap of BS11.
Examples:
Source: AT-X Source: BS11
See also here for how to report differences in source, when there is only 1 release and the source has changed mid-release.
Trailer
Specification of where the trailer was taken from.
Examples:
Trailer from official site Trailer from Special Edition micro-DVD AnimeINC Anniversary
Errors
For files that contain visible errors or are incomplete (truncated).
Out of the ordinary fps should get reported as well (anything besides: 24,25/29)
Examples:
Audio-Video asynchronous (ie when only 1 audio track) English audio track asynchronous with video (iewhen more than 1 track) Corrupt avi header Corrupt avi index Corrupt frames Corrupt frame[s] (<frames/timecode>) Corrupt frame[s] (<frames/timecode>; <frames/timecode>; [...]) Corrupt frame[s] (<frames/timecode>-<frames/timecode>) Corrupt frames (<durance in sec>) Incomplete file *)
*) Set quality to "corrupted" as well. In cases like these, the official CRC and the file's actual CRC also usually don't match; double check the status and set it accordingly.
