Bug fixes, Skip Improvements, Recommended Anime, and other improvements

[ch0nker]

forgot to add add some stuff to the previous PR which is why I marked as a draft.

Todo

• Update cached episodes list if a new episode exists.
• Try to figure out what's causing the video player to lag so much.
• Fix skip event progress bars counting as their own progress and if you hover over the start of them it'll show 0:00 instead of where ever the skip event starts at.
• Fix title spacing
• Second episode progress bar for showing how much is left

Changes

• Fix setting seek time in the settings tab.
• Update local history when new episode is available.
• Better logic for getting related anime formats.
• Show skip events on the progress bar.
• Make skip button popup instead of having to interact with the video player for it to show.
• Drop down for Recommended & Related anime, it'll default to Related if it's available.
• Episode progress bars in the anime modal (needs some refining).
• Recommended anime section that'll use a random history entry.
• Batch fetch anilist watch history instead of making a bunch of requests.
• 18+ filter.
• Cache anime data so getting episode info doesn't take as long.
• HiAnime source

Issues

• Please add button to remove hentai #159 : filters 18+ content for searching and the aired anime.
• AniList progress issues #162: removes pausing anime.
• Delayed Skip #151: vvvv
• The player episodes list sucks! #153: helps load episodes faster by caching anime info.

could you make some additions to the skip intro / skip outro system?
like reproducing Netflix behaviors, so the skip intro button pops out apart from the video player controls, stays there for 5 seconds and then it disappears.
then, implementing the "auto next episode" to the skip outro button. same way, when the skip outro button pops out, it stays for 5 seconds and then it automatically skips to the next episode/to the sequel.

if you don't have time/you can't do it now there are no problems of course, I asked you just because you build the whole aniskip system

edit: thanks!

Added it lmk if there is anything else you'd be interested in me adding or if there is anything wrong with it.

It'll only autoplay to the next episode if there is less than 15 seconds left of the video after skipping to the end of the outro.

@aleganza If you could make a dropdown for the anime section where the section title is that'd be greatly appreciated so instead of having the recommended anime and the related anime next to each other it can just be one section.

[aleganza]

sorry can you provide an example

[ch0nker]

sorry can you provide an example

sorry I don't really have any paint tools installed rn but if you could make where the text is like 'Related' or 'Recommended' into a dropdown list so you can choose between Related or Recommended.

Edit: didn't realize how easy it was to just put a Select element where the label should be.

[aleganza]

if I can, tomorrow I'll review it

[ch0nker]

Found some more bugs so I'm going to set it as a draft until I can fix them.

[aleganza]

ook.

please list those bugs in the pr description in another selectable list

[aleganza]

about the bug fixex:

modals must not be deleted, otherwise it would have to fetch episodes info again
I would ask you to completely remove all the caching stuff related to the player. there is another method to improve the episode loading in-player, which I will do myself (and maybe that's causing the lag).

btw, is the lag from the video player happening only in THIS pr, or in the current released akuse?

It isn't caching anything for the player only anime info so you don't have to search for the anime every time you press next episode.

(and maybe that's causing the lag).

Nope seems that having a delay for mouse movement caused the "lag" I was trying to fix (or I did something else that fixed it). Seems to be some other lag which is only caused when the video is playing no idea what's causing it though since it's been like that since before I've made any PRs (I tested 1.5.0 and it has it), probably hls. It isn't noticeable enough to see any differences except for when you're interacting with the UI stuff like the pause icon.

currently released

can you try with 1.3.0 too?

Happens with 1.3.0 as well

[aleganza]

ok I have it too sometimes with all the versions on the pc I'm actually using (thinkpad t450), I didn't have it when using akuse on my home desktop.
what are your pc specs? I think it's related to that

[aleganza]

wow thanks for hianime! it provides so many languages

[ch0nker]

Ah forgot that I bottlenecked my cpu to 1GHz because it was overheating too much probably why lol

[aleganza]

oh it must be that then.
btw, did you completely fix #162 ?

[ch0nker]

Nah removed setting the anime as paused though the issue seems to be a preference for them so I didn't really put all that much effort into fixing it.
