Do you plan to introduce graphic resizing or sound conversion to the Anki plugin at some point? Would be cool to take the audiovisual decks with me.
What about formatting? I use bold and italics a lot in my Anki deck.

because I dont want to support it (it is beyond the scope of the app, go buy an mp3 player).

maybe, maaaaaaaaaaaaaaybe.
dont count on it unless I feel REALLY productive.

this might actually happen.

This looks amazing, and has pretty much nulled any reason I thought of trading in my old 5th gen for an ipod touch. Good job! ;P
Anyway I did have a couple of questions. Could this work with a USB wifi adaptor? I don't have a router but may get one sometime in the future.
And does it work both ways? Will I be able to review my deck on the go and then sync it back to Anki and continue my reps from there? Does it have the drawing function where I can scribble down my Hanzi before checking if it's right?
Thanks heaps~

I dont see why not, as long as the ds can see it.
>And does it work both ways? Will I be able to review my deck on the go and then sync it back to Anki and continue my reps from there?
yep
>Does it have the drawing function where I can scribble down my Hanzi before checking if it's right?
not yet, but I have code for that laying in the other srs thing I made.

Sweet! I forgot to ask though about wav files. Say I have them added to my Anki deck, will they be transported over too?

I tried playing around with ankidssync-r3.tar.gz, but I've been unable to get it to work
.1)The wifi is extremely flakey. Sometimes it works, most of the time it doesn't. I find I have to reset the ds a few times times to get it to work.... but usually I must load up the DS browser and have it connect and then press reset and then I can usually connect on the next try (but only 1 time!). (I have no problem connecting to wifi with the ds browser, however).
2) I have input the IP for my anki computer but even when the wifi connects, I am still unable to sync with anki...
Anybody have any ideas?
It probably doesn't make any difference, but I am using a dsi.
Thanks

>The wifi is extremely flakey.
this sometimes happens to me, I am mostly unfamiliar with how ds wifi works so I am sure I am doing it wrong somewhere.
>I have input the IP for my anki computer but even when the wifi connects, I am still unable to sync with anki...
tried setting it to your WAN IP? I found I had to do that to get it to work for me.
also there will also be a slight change to the plugin in the next version, anki will always be waiting for a connection rather than there being a button to hit. this makes more sense I think since you don`t need to be right next to the computer with anki to sync it (I dont know why I didn`t do this in the first place considering getting that button there was like the hardest part).

Is it possible to make it sync without wirless? Just do a straight USB file transfer or something?
anki ds - ToasterMage - 2009-08-25
http://digital-haze.net/files/ankids/nowifisync.py
from README:
if you don`t like wifi for whatever reason, use anki/nowifisync.py
1) copy nowifisync.py into the ankids folder on the ds
2) run nowifisync.py
might work, did almost no testing.

I put ankisdsync.py in my plugins folder, when I start Anki, I get: (This is from R4)
An error occurred in a plugin. Please contact the plugin author.
Please do not file a bug report with Anki.

How do I fix this?
Also hoping you'll add support for colors, I use colors to indicate a lot of things in my decks, such as when kana are more common than kanji in certain words.

Sorry toastermage, i must be an idiot ;(
You mean run ankids on an emulator, right? I tried a couple, but ankids doesn't work on them. What emulator(s) does ankids work on?
Thanks

mmh.. there's a python port for PSP... I wonder if libanki will work...

bombpersons Wrote:mmh.. there's a python port for PSP... I wonder if libanki will work...Man, it would be so sweet to get Anki to work on a PSP... It would probably take a lot of work, one would need to port QT to PSP which could possibly be a pretty big deal.
anki ds - bombpersons - 2009-08-27
The python port works quite well, but I can't get libanki to work. It keeps giving me memory errors =( SQLAlchemy does too =(
However it does have a working sqlite3 library. Perhaps that would be enough for just reviewing?
You wouldn't *need* to port qt4, the libanki is actually really simple to use. It's to grab expired cards it's like,
card = deck.getCard()
So it wouldn't be to too hard to make a simple app to review cards in (if libanki worked). Though, making something to edit cards as well would be a different matter...
anki ds - luigi37 - 2009-08-28
I was checking about SRS on the DS and found this thread.
So, there are two programs from ToasterMage: ndsrs and ankidssync.
Here's what I figured out. Please correct me if I'm wrong:
ndsrs was the first attempt. It allows you to review and score the cards on the DS and calculates the next time for review. To edit the cards, you use some programs on the PC. By the way, where are the scores kept? In the .srs file? Would it be overwritten if I change my cards on the PC?
ankidssync tries to take advantage of the well known and well supported program Anki. There's a plugin to extract the (due in the next 2 days) cards from Anki and translate it to ndsrs-format. ankids itself is basically ankids without the calculation of the next due time. Instead, it feeds the scores back into Anki. If I sync every day, everything is fine. But, what if I go on vacation and I forget some answers. Typically, it should be reviewed soon, but anki ds doesn't have calculation for the next review date. One more question: Does it feed back the score with a timestamp? So, multiple answers before syncing would be possible.
Would it be possible to port the calculation of the next review date to anki ds? Anki is open-source and the calculation is platform independant.
anki ds - bombpersons - 2009-08-28
It would be possible, but porting stuff like that is a pain in the arse =( Especially since you would need to completely understand the algorithm that anki uses.. and it looks... complicated...
anki ds - ToasterMage - 2009-08-28
>By the way, where are the scores kept? In the .srs file? Would it be overwritten if I change my cards on the PC?
.rep file, I did keep them separate
>cards from Anki and translate it to ndsrs-format
nope, uses its own format (ndsrs format was more than I needed for it really)
>But, what if I go on vacation and I forget some answers. Typically, it should be reviewed soon, but anki ds doesn't have calculation for the next review date.
well, sucks for you, stop going to places so uncivilized there wont be a wifi hotspot anywhere would be my best suggestion really.
>One more question: Does it feed back the score with a timestamp? So, multiple answers before syncing would be possible.
not sure what you are asking.
>Would it be possible to port the calculation of the next review date to anki ds? Anki is open-source and the calculation is platform independant.
possible? yes
am I ever going to do it? no
>platform independant.
doesn`t mean every single platform in existance will run it.
anki ds - luigi37 - 2009-08-29
ToasterMage Wrote:>One more question: Does it feed back the score with a timestamp? So, multiple answers before syncing would be possible.My point here is: if ankidssync used the calculation from Anki, it would be possible that it showed a card twice before syncing (card can reappear after 10 minutes?). In that case syncing with Anki would feed two scores of the same card.
not sure what you are asking.
Can Anki accept the two scores, because
a) you tell Anki what time the scores were given or
b) Anki can tell after the first score that a second review was due before the current time
Not sure if I made myself clearer now
anki ds - ToasterMage - 2009-08-29
I can shove as many scores on a card as I want, when I want.
there was a bug kinda related to this if you look on the first page.
but as I said, there are no plans to implement the anki algorithm on the ds. in fact I will probably ignore any patches adding it (not that I expect any).
anki ds - leafy_tree - 2009-08-31
Hey Toastermage! I must say that I appreciate all the work that you put into this. I was using ndsrs before I really even started going to this forum and was hella surprised (in a good way) to see the creator of the soft that was helping my ass out on these forums. Anyway, I have just started to use ankids (actually, finally bought that long overdue router I’ve been looking for an excuse to buy because of it). Anyway, I like the program so far, but I have run into a couple of hiccups. They may be a glitch or two, but, hell, they could easily be my own damn fault as well. I’ll let you decide, I suppose.
First, and most importantly, I seem to be having difficulty changing the font size. It is set so small I can barely make out which Kanji is which (poor eyesight + tiny font + tiny screen = fail). I have tried to change the font size in the config file, and while the config file recognizes my changes in IP addresses it doesn’t seem to recognize my changes in the font size. It’s quite possible that I may be missing something, so am I? How should I best go about changing the font size?
Second, I noticed something interesting when I had suspended or new cards in my anki deck. While regular anki will not quiz you on suspended cards and new cards (if you have your new card option set to 0 per day; I have the 3000ish RTK Kanji deck but I have only finished RTK1), these all get ported over to ankids on sync. Is there a way to have ankids ignore suspended cards or new cards (if the deck is set to no new cards)? I know I can go into my deck and remove all the cards I am not ready for, but it would be nice not to have to do that. Of course, if it is a coding nightmare to address this issue, I guess I can live with this minor hassle.
Anyway, thanks again for all the hard work you put into this, and sorry if this is a long winded, confusing mess of a post.
