MyAnimeList-AppleMultiplatform

Unofficial MyAnimeList app for Apple TV, iPhone, iPad and Mac rewritten in SwiftUI (previous was TVML/TVJS)

Requirements

• Xcode 13
• tvOS 15 or iOS 15 or macOS 12

Dependencies

• SwiftUIFlux: A very naive implementation of Redux using Combine BindableObject to serve as an example
• JikanSwift: Jikan Swift wrapper
• MALSyncSwift: MALSync Api Swift wrapper
• CrunchyrollSwift: Crunchyroll Swift wrapper unofficial
• Kingfisher: A lightweight, pure-Swift library for downloading and caching images from the web.

Development

The project use SwiftUI and SwiftUIFlux.

You can learn SwiftUIFlux and SwiftUI with MovieSwiftUI.

Swift packages made for this porject are intergrated as git submodules. Once the sub packages are well developed. I'll consider to change it back to the way to install a SwiftPM that everybody know.

Example to clone with submodules:

$ git clone --recurse-submodules

Example to install submodules if you didn't use above command:

$ git submodule update --init --recursive

Subtitles in HLS(m3u8) does not support ass format

The IETF standard HTTP Live Streaming only support WebVTT subtitles.

WebVTT is based on SRT. Which is less rich than ASS.

AVFoundation provided by Apple only support WebVTT which means if I want the soft subtitles in the app. I have to convert ASS to WebVTT.

What will happen if I adopt WebVTT

The original ASS subtile from Crunchyroll looks like this

The SRT subtitle converted by ffmpeg -i enUS.ass -c:s srt enUS.srt looks like this

As you can see word Character and satou are not in the right position. It's better to remove those words and only keep the phrase on bottom center.

Not all anime in Crunchyroll are fully subbed. For example

In this case. Format in ASS and SRT will not make a big difference.

Requirements for adopting ASS subtitles

I have to drop AVFoundation and use a third party video player.

What will happen if I do nothing

The subtitles will look good and will be in English only. It's hard encoded in the video. You cannot turn it off or change to other languages.
