New to version 1.04:
-Bug fix: Chop cancel not calculating properly
One missing character of code was causing chop cancel to calculate incorrectly, potentially leading to situations where chopping should have been canceled but continued anyway.
This has been fixed.
-Improved @auto_trim/@chop_white_rows/@chop_white_cols when combined with @auto_rotate
In very rare instances, white space trimming/chopping could remove enough area to cause a scan to change orientation (i.e. a portrait scan could become landscape, or vice versa).
In this scenario, you probably don’t want the image to be rotated since the original orientation is the intended way to read that scan.
This has been improved by canceling trimming/chopping if it would lead to an orientation change and rotation.
-Added more ereader .properties settings profiles
Settings profiles now available for:
- kindle4 (Amazon Kindle 4)
- kindletouch (Amazon Kindle Touch)
- nooktouch (Barnes & Noble Nook Touch)
I also renamed some of the existing profiles to remove ambiguity. For example, “k1” may have been mistaken for Kobo 1, so I renamed it to “kindle1”.
Contact me if you would like a settings profile added for your device.

New to version 1.03:
-Bug fix: Potential freeze during Manga Scan Model scan analysis
Program could freeze during MSM interpretation due to logic bug. This has been fixed.
-AI improvements to MPM and MSM interpretation
Small improvement to Manga Publication Model interpretation to better handle volumes with only one chapter available but that lacks chapter info (a rare case but still good to handle properly).
Several improvements to Manga Scan Model interpretation, including better sorting of mixed volume/chapter specification levels, improved ability to find cover pages that don’t include the keyword “cover” in the filename, and smarter handling of special page overspecification.
Thanks to everyone who has provided feedback. Many of the AI improvements come from analyzing test cases I would otherwise not have access to.
Also big thanks to those who recommend MangAI to their friends. Until I’m out of the red, the only way to promote MangAI is by word of mouth. The more popular this gets, the more time and resources I can put into it :)

New to version 1.02a:
-Bug fix: Potential freeze during Manga Scan Model scan analysis
Bug was introduced in v1.02 and allowed for a potential infinite loop during MSM interpretation.
This has been fixed.
-Added more ereader .properties settings profiles
Settings profiles now available for:
- pc (personal computer or laptop)
- eeepad (Asus Eee Pad Transformer and Transformer Prime)
- touchpad (HP TouchPad)
- xoom2 (Motorola Xoom 2)
Contact me if you would like a settings profile added for your device.
-Better default settings for iPad 1 and 2
Disabled pdf output since cbz is better to read and faster to produce.

New to version 1.02:
-AI improvements to MSM interpretation
Better front and back cover page detection for scans that don’t include “cover” in the filename.
Better handling overspecification of special pages. Overspecification refers to not always treating pages like covers and credits as special since, under certain circumstances, they are better sorted using normal page ordering rules.
Improved MSM sorting, particularly for chapter ordering and special pages.
Better ignoring of version numbers. “v2” meaning “version 2” rather than “volume 2” is a real pita :P
Various other logic improvements.
-Better default settings for Kobo 1 and 2
Thanks to user feedback, the default profiles for kobo1 and kobo2 have been improved. Cbz output is in, epub and pdf are out, and images smaller than the screen size get a white border added to help with centering.
-Auto check for software update
GUI will now automatically check for a new MangAI version once a week. You can still manually check for an update at any time by clicking Help -> Check for Update.
If you are updating from a previous version, you can copy over your old data/mangaigui_jobs.txt file so that you don’t lose your saved jobs. Do not, however, copy over your old data/mangaigui.properties file as its contents has changed in v1.02 (it now includes the last date of auto update check).
