anivu's Issues

Use softer background colors

I'm Dyslexic
For some people with dyslexia, high contrast color schemes can make reading/viewing content more difficult and this is a very common disease . Currently I have noticed that the app uses really high contrasty backgrounds compared to other apps that I'm easily able to use like read you , I cant use the app in light mode because it feels so contrasty and in darkmode I still have problems because of a highcontrasty background , for comparison here is ReadYou background color comparison .

I think if this very little consideration is taking into account many dyslexic people like me will be able to use the app with more ease . Please make the background colors more softer .

Can the bullet chat be added?

現階段的感覺已經非常完善了，下載觀看一條龍，要是能有彈幕功能那追番體驗會上一層樓，想建議加入彈彈的彈幕源，使用弹弹play开放平台 加上 Bangumi Api 來實現彈幕功能，像是KNKPAnime的彈幕功能就做的挺好的和官方的DanDanPlayForAndroid，下面有幾個是其他項目使用的類似案例

想問問您的意見和想法

A refresh button in the article screen and disable scroll down to refresh

every time i scroll with the mouse wheel in the article screen in my Chromebook the refresh thing gets in the way , also i have problems refreshing all feed (not groups and single feeds since they have refresh option) , is it possible to disable scroll to refresh and have a refresh button instead?

Card style in article/torrent list

A card layout similar to this

• For the icon, we can have the website logo (similar to readyou)
  

• For those websites that don't have any logo, we can have the first character of the article name (not the symbols) the Chinese or English or whatever language first character
  

• (Some people may not like the idea of having the website logo in the article list so we can make it optional, so even if the website has any logo, the article list will show the first character instead of the logo by default)

• For the name, we can have the feed name
  

• For the secondary text under the name
  

, we can have elapsed time. For example, "10 minutes ago," "1 hour ago," "1 day ago" (but not two types together like "1 hour and 45 minutes ago" or "1 day 10 hours ago")

• For the article title, as usual, the article title as it is

• For the tags, we can have it optional like show tags or show the description.

• Text inside these (| |) symbols can be used as tags.
  

Rss parsing issue

Ability to import opml files for mass rss feeds

I have a good amount of torrent feeds in a normal rss feed app which if I want to import one by one it will be so much time consuming and tiring long process. if opml import support is added it will be so convenient.

Subtitle delay, audio delay and external audio track

First two options are self explanatory and for third some early relas anime provide dub audio seperately so a external audio option would be helpful for such files .

External audio

Sub delay and audio delay

Hide Default group when its empty

Hide the categories when the category has no rss feed in them , including the default catagory , i dont have single feed in that catagory

the video has chapters embedded in it if we can see that in the bar it will be great

Supports opening torrent links

Have the filter row show only after the filter icon is clicked

In the devices that have less height and in all devices when they are in landscape mode , the space filter row doesn't look good , can we have the filter row only show if someone filters , otherwise it just takes unneeded space even though its not even being used .

Remember Expansion state

Add a option so that if a group was expanded last time it will stay expanded and if another one was not expanded it will state that way next time opening the app.

So one can stay expanded and another group can stay closed at the same time when opening the app.

Grouping Media , and all media in the media tab .

Like #13 If the download videos are grouped in the media based on which feed we download them from ,it will be really handy. Also a all media option to access all of downloaded media is also needed.

I have 6-7 currently airing anime as my rss feed separately so if the download media is organised based on the feed I have downloaded the media from it will be really organised and easy to access.

Mark as seen

It will be efficient If we could see which torrents we have already seen in the torrents page/article page

A dimmed colour to mark as read could be added

Or a simple dot in front of the torrents which we haven't read could also be added

Open in browser

Add an option so that we can open the download link/magnet link in phone browser through tapping or swiping.

一些界面上的建议（MD3）

首先，还请调用Android系统动画，目前这个动画只是单纯的渐变实在不太好；
然后，作为一个md3 app，还请适配动态颜色。

另外，私认为 divider 用的太多了，订阅或者文章界面可以考虑试试 Card；然后更多界面图标很少，不太适合此类布局，可以试试 Navigation drawer，可能会好看点？

Swipe right to mark as read or mark as favorite

Currently we can configure swipe left option which is really great for quick operation, can we configurable have swipe right option too?
Swipe feels more comfortable and reliable for many people.Also marking read/favorite in quick successions will be easier if swipe gesture is added.

Remove feed not working.

1.Add a rss feed
2.long press the feed to show options
3.click remove

Result: Nothing happens
Expected behaviour:it should remove the feed

Custom Feed image and description.

Exactly as the title says . It will be cool to have full access to the looks of ur feed . U also get a bonus Aqua .

Option to directly download magnet /torrents

Please give an option to directly download magnet links or torrent files we have. For old torrent files, RSS isn't really an option, so we need to use the magnet link and download the file with some torrent client. Since AniVu already supports downloading torrents, it would be great to be able to download magnet links/torrent files.

An idea of how it may look like

Support Media RSS

Media RSS:

• https://www.rssboard.org/media-rss
• https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_RSS

e. g. https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=UCVYamHliCI9rw1tHR1xbkfw

Better group selection and Edit feed

2024-04-30-20-38-31.2.mp4

Option to edit feed names

　。

Ability to group feeds , and a all feeds in the list .

If we can group multiple rss in groups it would be really good for managing a large number of feeds . And a all feeds in list will help view everything at once . Example - ReadYou

Don't Directly open Keyboard when adding Rss feeds or magnet links in the download section

Most of the time we paste the link in the field so only if someone wants to type it will need to open the keyboard.Also the animation doesn't feel smooth when a keyboard is popping up when the window animation is still ongoing. So showing keyboard only when someone clicked text field will be a good optimisation.

Option to hide the duplicate title present in description

The duplicate title takes up space in description and sometimes w cant see important details because of that . More information here

Anivu

Choosing default left screen

Some apps support choosing default left screen. I would really love to have the default left screen show one of my feed and some people may like to show all feeds and someppl may like to have default blank screen. The setting is like configurable 1.All feed 2.Choose feed 3.none. That would be great

Option to have FAB as dynamic button in navigation bar.

Option to hide infohash from description

Like #17 , it'd be great if we could hide infohash from the description

Use mpv based player

Mpv player is a really great player and the aniyomi version of mpv player looks a lot better than official mpv , it also has material ui support.

aniyomi-https://github.com/aniyomiorg/aniyomi

Subtitle Styling inside the player

Most users dont prefer / dont know how to use mpv commands , it will be handy if users can choose simple subtitle styling from inside the player through a gui rather than command line interface.

The recommended / Most used styling options are

• Enabling subtitle styling

  1. This toggles the --sub-ass-override=yes/force (by default it should be yes rather than disabled since having yes will apply important filters such as vsfilter-blur-compat or aspect-compat it it also doesnt break subtitle styling when set to yes )
  2. when turned off it will be --sub-ass-override=yes and if someone wants to apply subtitle styling then --sub-ass-override=force

• Subtitle color and size

  1. Sets --sub-color=
     there are 2 ways of setting color ,
     1st :
     using hex color code . ex -
     --sub-color='#C0808080' set sub to 50% gray with 75% alpha
     '#AARRGGBB' aa for opacity , rr for red gg for green and bb for blue all ranging from 00 to FF.
     2nd:
     where each color component is specified as number in the range 0.0 to 1.0. It's also possible to specify the transparency by using r/g/b/a, where the alpha value 0 means fully transparent, and 1.0 means opaque. Ex -
     --sub-color=1.0/0.0/0.0/0.75 set sub to opaque red with 75% alpha.

  2. Sets --sub-font-size=
     Default value is 55 , fractional values excepted.

• Subtitle Border Color and size

  1. Sets --sub-border-color=
     Similar to --sub-color
  2. Sets --sub-border-size=
     Similar to --sub-font-size , default value=3, fractional values accepted.

• Subtitle Shadow Color and offset

  1. Sets --sub-shadow-color=
     See --sub-color. Color used for sub text shadow.
  2. Sets --sub-shadow-offset=
     Similar to --sub-font-size , fractional values accepted,A value of 0 disables shadows.

• Font Styling : -

  --sub-bold=<yes|no> ;--sub-italic=<yes|no>
  

• Examples

  1. For changing color ARGB slider is recommended .

  2. Example
     
     In this example we cant change border size , shadow color , shadow offset from inside the player which is a downside so I hope u'll add those in AniVu

Ability to select where to download torrents

An option to select where to download the torrent file will help manage the videos and files when needed + i wanted to upload the videos to my cloud storage but i wasn't simply able to do that via the share option in anivu, if i can select the folder where to download i'll select my cloud synced folder .

Sticky publication date header

It will be great and a neat addition if sticky publication header is added. Many apps use sticky publication date header for list items . Example -

Cache duration for articles/torrent list

It will be great if we can specify how many days/months a article should stay cached.
Example -

Revamp feed screen

Add padding , rounded corner etc .

Here is a concept based on current anivu

External subtitle

Im watching this chinese anime which doesn't have English subtitles embedded, please add external subs so that we can choose download subtitle files .

add an exception handler to display the crash message

use dual page in tablet mode .

Most of the space in my tablet it wasted in all pages , if app app uses dual page in tablet it will be really great . When opening the app the right page may look empty so i suggest shoing all feeds updates there by default and chage to group ot list when clicked

example - feedflow

Ability to reorder groups and feeds

Can we rearrange (reorder) the group by holding and moving the pills.
Also if we can reorder the feeds inside groups somehow that would be great.
