⚙️ Client Local Configuration

Configuration Reading

The default configuration file path is .mdc/mdc.ini under the system user directory.

If a file named mdc.ini also exists in the program directory, the program will read that file first. This allows programs in different locations to use independent configuration files.

Directory Config

When one of the Scraping Directory entries is the same as the Output Directory, scraping and organizing can be done directly under the scraping directory. In this mode, only 1 scraping directory can be configured.

Scraping Directory

Defaults to the folder where the program is located. You can add multiple folders manually.

Output Directory

Defaults to the newly created output folder under the program runtime directory.

Subtitle Config

If the subtitle file prefix in the Scraping Directory matches the video file prefix, the subtitle will be automatically moved to the same directory as the video during subsequent processing. The Subtitle tag will also be added to the NFO metadata file, and a watermark will be added to the cover (this can be turned on or off on the web cloud configuration page).

General Settings

Debug Mode

  • Keep this disabled unless a BUG occurs, otherwise it may increase the probability of program crashes

When a BUG occurs, click Stop, enable Debug Mode, click Run again, then save the output log and related screenshots and send them according to Report BUG.

Check for Update on start

  • Recommended to keep enabled to receive the latest update reminders

Chrome Simulator

It is recommended to disable this feature. Enabling it will allow you to request sites with strong anti-scraping measures, but it will increase the scraping time. Chrome browser must be installed.

Backend Hosting Mode

When checked, the scraping will not automatically stop after each cycle. It will automatically scrape newly added video files at intervals based on the currently selected cloud configuration settings.

  • Actor mapping table: mapping_actor.xml
  • Other field mapping table: mapping_info.xml
  • Simplified Chinese to Traditional Chinese corresponds to zh_tw, Traditional Chinese to Simplified Chinese corresponds to zh_cn, and English en only supports content in the custom mapping table
