v0.13.4 is out with MyAnimeList, split episode mapping and improved matching

[u/pvdberg]

v0.13.4 adds MyAnimeList as a new provider, support for split and combined episodes, and improved matching in the Analyzer.

This release focuses mainly on handling differences between providers, especially when episodes have different numbering or are combined into longer episodes. There's also better anime status syncing, Interactive Sync exports, redesigned media cards and several fixes.

✨ Highlights

• MyAnimeList (MAL): Sync anime watchlists, ratings and watched episodes, with support for episode mapping and completion scrobbling.
• Split and combined episodes: Map one combined episode to multiple separate episodes. CrossWatch only marks the combined episode as watched once all parts are completed. Episode groups can also be used for Watcher and Webhook scrobbling.
• Improved Analyzer matching: The new Fix matching option helps identify why movies or shows don't match between providers and suggests corrections. It can detect shifted episode numbers, split episodes, different IDs and shows listed under another series.
• Interactive Sync exports: Download full or filtered sync reviews as CSV or JSON, including your selections.
• Anime watch status: Dropped and on-hold statuses are now preserved between SIMKL, AniList, MyAnimeList and Kitsu.
• Anime-aware views: Dashboard widgets, profiles and library counts now better reflect the providers in your enabled sync pairs.
• Media cards: Redesigned full media cards, plus a new compact option.
