Logging
For basic logging, use /log manual
. This will prompt you for the required
information. You can also use the /log
command with a subcommand for your
media type. For example, /log video
will prompt you for a video URL.
Logs
A log is simply a record of immersion time and associated information, such as a name, date, media type, media metadata, etc.
Although not all subcommands explicitly require a time as input, all other forms of logging will be converted to an estimated time internally. Thus, it is recommended to always provide a time when you know it, and to configure your speeds for more accurate estimates.
See the export section for more details on working with logs.
Default Speeds
Although it is recommended to configure your speeds, here are the default speeds used for each media type:
Media Type | Conversion Factor | Speed |
---|---|---|
anime | 24 | - |
book | 1/2 | 2 pages per minute |
manga | 1/2 | 2 pages per minute |
vn | 1/200 | 200 characters per minute |
For anime, you should use the episode-length
field to specify the length of
the episode in minutes.
Duration Overrides
All commands provide alternative ways to specify the duration of a log.
Duration
You can explicitly specify the duration of a log with the duration
field (book
, manga
, vn
, and video
).
When using the duration
field, you may use 0
for book
, manga
, and vn
pages/characters to indicate that you
did not record these values.
Episode Length
For anime, you should use the episode-length
field to specify the length of each episode in minutes.
Reading Speed (One Time)
For VNs, you can also use the reading-speed
or reading-speed-hourly
fields to specify the reading speed.
This will not affect your configured speed for VNs, however it will be used to suggest a speed
when you do configure your speed.
Complex Durations
For videos, you have an additional option, duration-complex
. This field allows you to specify the
duration of the video in a more complex format. For example, you can specify the duration as 1m30s
or as a slice of the video, such as 2m30s:
(2 minutes and 30 seconds into the video until the end).
You can also use _
and t
as special values to specify the sum of your previous logs on this
video and the timestamp provided in the video URL (YouTube only).
For example, if you have logged 1 minute and 30 seconds on a video,
you can specify the duration as _:
to log the remaining time on the video, or _:t
to log the
time from where you left off, until the time specified in the video URL.
Date and Time
By default, the current date and time will be used for your log. You can
override this with the date
field. Although multiple formats are supported,
it is recommended to use the YYYY-MM-DD
or YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM
formats. To ensure
the correct time is used, you should configure your timezone.
