That would be nice, here is an example where i get my images overwritten every time i run the scan movies. check out ID-036 on javlibrary. i have 1 of the movies so i like just to be able to say to that movie after i have updated manual that it is locked now and cant be changedThere's no such function, but any destructive actions are hidden behind advanced functions or require user actions. At some point, I'd like to add a way to backup and restore movie and actress data, but that's still on the to-do list.
As far as I know they should be working. Not all sites have equivalent Japanese entries, so there may be some rarer titles that don't get the Japanese titles, but I just checked my latest scraped titles and they seem fine.Hello @TmpGuy, I just realize now that the japanese titles are missing. Is this feature removed or the webscraper didn't have the data? Just curious, I don't always use this but its quite useful in searching/filtering some title.
I don't know what happened, but after I check the log, there are some warnings like this:As far as I know they should be working. Not all sites have equivalent Japanese entries, so there may be some rarer titles that don't get the Japanese titles, but I just checked my latest scraped titles and they seem fine.
I still got the metadata for the movies, but not the japanese titles. Does this mean I couldn't scrape a few websites? I'm using VPN connection, and from browser I can open those website normally.11:09:52 PM : Info : Attempting to scrape metadata for ABF-14812/31/2024 11:09:52 PM : Info : Attempting to download cover image to D:\Downloads\Video\New folder (4)\ABF-148-un12/31/2024 11:09:52 PM : Info : Scraping website for data: https://www.javlibrary.com/en/vl_searchbyid.php?keyword=ABF-14812/31/2024 11:09:52 PM : Info : Loading site12/31/2024 11:10:01 PM : Warning : HTML parsing timeout.

When you say it "crashes", does it just disappear or does it first show the unhandled exception in a dialog box? If it's the latter, I might be able to figure out what's going on if I can see your log files.I've recently been encountering an issue where when I click the Actress tab the program crashes. I tried uninstalling and re-installing but it still crashes when I click that tab. Are there other program files or backup files of meta-data that I need to remove to hopefully get it working again?

Otherwise, you could try completely deleting (or renaming) the hidden metadata folder JavLuv uses - there could be something corrupted there. You can find those in C:\users\your+name\AppData\Local\JavLuv
Also, JavLuv is incompatible with some third party anti-virus programs. Try disabling those if nothing else is working.
Yes, but it's admittedly not very intuitive. At some point I'd like to add a dedicated method for that. If metadata isn't found, you can choose an option to add the title anyhow.I love the idea of the program but I have questions.
1. Is there a way to manually scrape meta-data? There a bunch of titles where the auto scrape did not find anything.
The option to add missing titles will fix this. It's off by default. From there, you can manually add a cover and edit data.2. There are titles which the program cannot find after a scan. So I cannot insert them to the collection.
Yes, all metadata fields are editable. This includes importing cover images.3. Is there any way to correct the meta-data if it is wrong?
The currently recommended method is to add tags to the genres field. If you don't want to do that, you could add those tags to the extra notes field, since all fields are searchable.4. Is there any way to add new meta-data like "Uncensored" -> YES, NO, AI, etc...
Yeah, I suspect there's an error in one of the scrapers that's causing it to fall back to the maximum timeout value. I haven;t prioritized a fix because it still works, but I'll try to investigate and fix eventually.5. The meta-data download is awfully slow. Is there a timeout for when one scrape source cannot be found?
Yes, but it's admittedly not very intuitive. At some point I'd like to add a dedicated method for that. If metadata isn't found, you can choose an option to add the title anyhow.

Thanks for the reply! I really like the program it is much simpler than stash (which is basically useless for JAV). I will check back to github to see when the issues get resolved.Yes, but it's admittedly not very intuitive. At some point I'd like to add a dedicated method for that.

Thanks Tmpguy,
This is just the program that I've been looking for. It's really handy and brilliant. After days of playing around, may I ask some question or give some input?
It seems that choosing English or Japanese in settings cause different metadata and cover/actress images. English mode seems having way more cover/actress images than Japanese mode. But we can find Japanese title and actress name in English metadata as well.
Could we just unify the metadata to the English mode way now. Then just switch between title (English mode) and originaltitle (Japanese mode). And grab Japanese name in Actress Details. Then we'll have the most of cover/actress images, unify metadata, and English/Japanese titles and actress names. And sorting the actress name just in English order seem not a problem to users as well.
Thanks for your great work again. I've used JavLuv for a lot of my videos. And I'm deliberating which mode should I choose now. Because I cannot find a way to show and reaname Japanese title and get the most cover/actress images at the same time.
