Jerry

The core idea of the script is that it allows users to watch anime in sync with their anilist account, automatically updating and tracking all progress (down to seconds of an episode watched).

But the script also has a lot of other features, which you can find in the features section.

Features (please check the wiki for configuration information)

Multiple providers: allanime (default), aniwatch, yugen, hdrezka and crunchyroll (requires token or email and password)
Sync watch progress on Anilist on episode completion, and locally (down to the second watched, just like YouTube and Netflix does it)
Customize subtitle language, video quality, provider and many other things (using arguments or config file)
Discord Rich Presence: display currently watched anime in Discord (currently requires the installation of the helper python script: jerrydiscordpresence.py)
External menu support: ability to use rofi, so that opening a terminal window isn't even required to run the script! (this can be used to setting the script to run on a keybind)
Output episode links in JSON format

Windows installation instructions

* This guide covers how to install and use jerry with the Windows Terminal (which comes pre-installed with Windows 11), you could also use a different terminal emulator, that supports fzf, like for example Wezterm * Note that the Git Bash terminal does *not* have proper fzf support Basically, what we are going to do is install the bash shell and use it to install the shell script. We will also install the mpv video player and fzf, which are required for the script to work. 1. Install scoop Open a PowerShell terminal https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/install/installing-powershell-on-windows?view=powershell-7.2#msi (version 5.1 or later) and run: ```ps Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser irm get.scoop.sh | iex ``` 2.
