Anime Catalogue

A few notes about the catalogue's data model:

• Each anime entry can have mutiple episodes of various types. Two episodes with the same type and episode number can not exist.
• Each file entry is assigned to a single episode, and a single episode can have multiple file entries.
• A file entry can have multiple audio streams and subtitle entries.

The application uses SQLite for the underlying database, so the files created by the application are ordinary SQLite databases.

The application is by default in view mode to prevent accidental editing. To enable edit mode, click the pen icon on the toolbar. In edit mode you can edit anime entries by double-clicking the table cells. Editing in all other windows will be enabled as well.
To re-enable view mode, click the eye icon.

If edit mode is enabled, you can add or delete episodes by using the right-click menu. There are several different types of episodes to choose from:

• Episode
• Part - can be used for movie parts
• Special
• Credits
• Trailer
• Omake - making of...

Use the Add episode range command to quickly add a range of episodes. To add an episode range, the following parameters must be entered:

• Start number - the starting episode number
• Count - the total number of episodes you wish to add
• Type - episode type
• Length - length of an episode (minutes)

Using the Add file to selected command is the most efficient way of adding files to episodes. You can select multiple episodes and by using this command you can easily add a file to all of the selected episodes.

This window shows a list of all video files for an anime entry. The data in the table can not be edited directly, so you need to use the File Edit dialog [right-click on file(s) -> Edit file(s)]. You can select multiple files from the table and edit them all at once.
Hovering over the cells of the Audio streams or Subtitles columns will display a tool-tip with detailed information about audio streams or subtitle entries.

This is a dialog for defining file properties, editing audio streams and subtitle entries. When editing multiple files, an additional panel will be displayed at the top of the window which enables you to select which properties will be applied to the files being edited.

The manage menu enables editing of various data not specificaly related to an anime entry. While the options are self-explanatory, the one thing worth mentioning is that the ID field in the table is not editable

Another feature worth mentioning is the ability of adding new items to drop-down menus on the fly. If a required entry is not present, simply select the <add new> from the menu and a prompt for adding a new item will be displayed.
