Anidb cast issues

Hello, when pulling show information from anidb I'm always getting a few weird cast/crew results. They are listed as actors but on anidb website they are not actors and they also dont have images. Can we please fix this issue? Maybe either dont get their information or move them to the end of the list?

To reproduce just use the anidb as your main provider. I have alot of shows so it is not feasible for me to edit each show.

@@Luke is it possible to fix this issue please?

Edit: Using latest beta server. But yeah I had this issue for ages.

Edit2: I attached the response from anidb api from server logs and another image 

 

In the image there is this guy "Rimukoro" listed as an actor, but in the response we get "<name id="56774" type="Original Work">Rimukoro</name>"

Regards

We only support a few person types in the system, and anything not of a recognized type will be Actor.

 

What is that person supposed to be, writer?

Yeah, writer. But this is not what I'm asking. I only want the actors to be first or maybe not include the rest of the unrecognized staff at all in the crew list. Is it possible to make it like the tvdb where we only have actors for TV shows please? All of my tv shows start with actors except animes start with staff with wrong description and no images.

Also I'm not sure if the other anime providers are pulling any data for me. But yeah looks I'm talking to myself here :)

 

Edit: @@Luke also can you take a look at this? Looks really nice

Maybe you can use this to replace the myanimelist "api" you are using. this is just a suggestion and has nothing to do with that annoying bug that i reported earlier.

I've pushed an update to the plugin, thanks.

 

@@Luke thanks man, but can you wait a bit before you push the updated version to the server? 

 

You are missing a couple of other types one of them is "work" they are using it on studios or something another type im not sure of. I will get back to you later with types i found.

 

Also im not sure if you want to fix this one the, but the myanimelist api is dead and prolly will never work. maybe soon i can help with implementing the api i linked to you? unless you want to do it ofc.

 

Edit: Seems it updated. not sure if should create an mr for the new types or not.

If you can list out all of the types that should be ignored, then we can add them. Thanks.

I created a pull request. if you don't want to merge it just copy the types i added there. 

 

Also there is another bug. Anime plugin settings are lost on refresh when you set them in the server. Not sure if they are being applied at all.
