Recent site improvements

Collected highlights from the updates leading up to this changelog. These were introduced across several updates during September.

Anime

• Cinextream is the first player, with VidNest as a fallback and a separate YouTube option.
• When Cinextream reports that all servers failed, a short grace period precedes the switch to VidNest for the same episode and language.
• Episode selection includes Sub/Dub choices, episode details, shareable links and saved last-opened preferences. A separate label identifies the loaded episode and provider.
• Search refresh keeps its filters, temporary catalogue failures can be retried, and watch history accepts validated playback reports without marking an opened player as watched.
• Schedules, seasons, personal lists and related-title links make it easier to follow a series.
• The loaded-player label stays tied to the episode actually opened, even when a different episode or language is selected before pressing Play. Reload and fallback retain that loaded selection.
• Cinextream requests playback after Play or Reload. Browsers may still require a tap inside the video; simply opening an anime page does not start the player.
• Closing or reloading the player, choosing YouTube, or changing episodes cancels pending fallback switches. Messages from an old player cannot change the active one.
• Watched-history updates reject incomplete playback information, avoid counting a provider auto-next notice as completion, and reduce repeated saves during playback.

Anime discovery and calendar

• Episode matching checks explicitly named seasons to reduce results from the wrong season, while retaining playlists that cover a complete series.
• YouTube playlist candidates are checked for availability before discovery stops. If none can be used, a limited cached fallback search can look for alternatives.
• Previous and Next follow distinct episode numbers, avoiding a jump from a finale to an alternate upload of episode 1.
• Opening a short episode preview no longer leaves the full episode list truncated in the cache.
• Upcoming schedules share a reusable cache and can recover from recent successful schedules or cached next-airing records during provider outages.
• Calendar results remove airings that have already passed and handle broadcasts due within the next minute correctly.
• Season browsing can fall back to Kitsu when AniList and Jikan fail, retaining the selected season, year and page. Catalogue coverage may vary by source.

Manga

• Saved lists and reading history keep track of titles, chapters and reading positions on this device.
• Chapter update checks and language-aware reading preferences help readers return to their series.
• Catalogue caching and recovery handling improve the experience when a source is temporarily slow or unavailable.

YouTube and downloads

• Saved video features include favorites, Watch Later, history, playlists and a play queue, with resume support where available.
• Video and channel discovery, playlist refresh and episode matching received reliability improvements.
• Wallpapers and ringtones have dedicated browsing and download pages.
• Related videos use cleaner title matching and can fall back to public uploads from the same channel when search finds no usable cards.
• Related-video results exclude the current video and private playlist entries, keep pagination on the chosen source, and show a message when no results are available.
• Cached searches and channel or playlist lookups remain usable without spending another search request. Limits on uncached searches help preserve the shared daily allowance.
• Recent searches handle simultaneous updates more reliably while retaining the latest ten distinct terms.

Services and saved data

• Browser tools cover QR codes, image editing, batch images, PDFs and calculators.
• Backup & Offline Tools can export and restore selected saved lists and preferences, with an undo option after restore.
• Selected local tools can be prepared for offline use after an online visit; their offline stylesheet handling was improved.
• Saved tools now use a verified cached stylesheet when a network stylesheet request fails, so their styling can survive both connection failures and rejected requests.
• Offline preparation covers six local tools: calculators, QR codes, images, batch images, PDFs and backup. Online catalogues and external video players still need a connection.

Weather and currency

• Weather forecasts, city lookups and exchange rates reuse validated cached results to reduce repeat requests and improve reliability.
• Recent cached data can remain available during a temporary provider outage, keeping its original date or timestamp. Historical exchange rates are cached for longer.
• Currency dates now reject impossible calendar dates, and preference handling tolerates browsers that block local storage.

Contact and guestbook

• Contact and guestbook submission limits continue to apply after a new browser session, reducing repeated submissions.
• Guestbook saves write a complete replacement before updating the stored records. A failed save preserves existing entries and reports the failure.

Appearance and reliability

• Blue and dark themes received refinements to colors, controls, borders and spacing, alongside adjustable text sizes.
• Content refresh, caching and retry behavior received fixes to preserve useful results during temporary provider failures.
• Input validation, saved-data handling and maintenance checks were strengthened across the site.
• Back links reject unsafe local paths and use a safe fallback when the referring address cannot be trusted.
• Shared file writes detect incomplete saves, and provider cooldowns help avoid repeated failing requests while useful cached results remain available.
• Private provider diagnostics help investigate failures, response times and cache behavior without recording search terms, API keys or visitor IP addresses.
• Video-converter commands pass paths and arguments directly to the converter process for more reliable argument handling.
