Portrait & automatic GUI rotation is also supported.

I was really surprised how usable the portrait mode actually is. :)

http://m4rtink.github.com/mieru/scre.../shortcuts.png
All submenus work in portrait without a hitch.

http://m4rtink.github.com/mieru/scre...ain_apmenu.png
Mieru uses the appmenu as its main menu.

Installed it, and it looks really great!

What formats are supported exactly?
cbr (jpeg in rar archive) worked, and epub partially in my first test (just the images).
I was not able to load pdf and chtml documents. It look likes it is targeting image based formats?

Zip, RAR, TAR + folders as "containers" and png, jpeg, bmp, gif, tiff and xpm should be supported as image formats.
Container type is detected using magic numbers, images are identified based on extension (as there might be a few hundred of them in a container, so checking their magic numbers would be too slow).
Support for more container & image formats can be added, if technically feasible.

Well, I'm quite surprised that it did even that. :) It has probably just detected the epub as a zip container and then showed all images it could find in it.

Yep - for now. :) I'm thinking about adding support for PDF, if I can find a suitable library for it.

Same here, now Mieru has shortcut but does not start.

Also can t be reinstalled (Mieru is already latest version)

Can t be romoved through FAM - entry does not show up.

Re: [Announce] Mieru: a flexible manga and comic book reader
 
Looks very promising! Maybe a transparent fullscreen button could be nice, so you don't have to open the keyboard to exit fullscreen mode. Or even better no button just touching the four corners, like top left = menu, top right = fullscreen, bottom left/right = prev/next.

Re: [Announce] Mieru: a flexible manga and comic book reader
 
@install failing
Looks like I made a typo yesterday when enabling kinetic scrolling by default. I have just uploaded a fixed version (1.00-4) so everything should be alright now. :)
In case the update won't install due to the failed installation, you might want to try this from the CLI (as root):
Code:

apt-get update
apt-get remove mieru
apt-get install mieru

There is a transparent fullscreen button in the bottom right corner (per Maemo convention). :)
BTW, so that fullscreen is not toggled by accident, you have to press it twice - first to show up and then to activate.

Aren't PDBs just compressed text files?

Re: [Announce] Mieru: a flexible manga and comic book reader
 
I have installed and executed it without any problem. Thank you for this application, it's a great first release. I hope it could, eventually, substitute my ageing cbrPager.

The application looks nice and I haven't found any problem with the comics I had in my device (cbz and cbr).

Navigation is a bit slow, could you implement a preload of next page and cache for latest seen page? That way, page flipping could be faster.

Fitting options and OSD button for changing from window to full screen are great.

Auto rotation is nice, though a bit slow.

Could you implement any other ways for page flipping? Slide gesture, or tap on the edge of the screen, for example. If so, the volume up/down buttons could be freed to be used with a media player.

And my final feature ask, swipe gesture for zoom in/out. With the tiny screen of the N900, easy zooming is a must (it could also be mapped to the rocker buttons, as an option).

Thanks for your work.

Re: [Announce] Mieru: a flexible manga and comic book reader
 
nice apps. however, there are 2 features i found missing from this apps

i don't feel like abusing my volume key each time i navigate between pages (keyboard is not an option either). could you add an option to enable swap to change page just like the built-in image viewer?
though this also has some issue (for example, you wish to pan the image and end up switching to other images), but i still prefer this. or if you could come up with better idea, that'd be great

edit. oops, didn't see my above post suggesting the same idea. meaning that not only me thinking of this idea :p

second one is, i hope you can also add a library feature. it can be manually added by user, or even better if user can put their files into a dedicated directory and mieru can list the content of the directory and automatically list it into its library
also it should support categorizing files depends on the directory level, ie.
<path>/XX : then XX is assumed as the series title
<path>/XX/YY : XX is the series title, and YY is the volume
<path>/XX/YY/ZZ : ditto with ZZ as chapter

and instead of stopping at the last file, it should be able to navigate between volume/chapter seamlessly (as user option), for example
XX/vol 1/last.jpg -> XX/vol 2/ch 1/01.jpg -> XX/vol 2/ch 1/last.jpg -> XX/vol 2/ch end/01.jpg -> XX/vol 2/ch end/last.jpg -> XX/vol 3/01.jpg

anyway, thanks for the great apps

I got this error too when installing it with FAM. The shortcut appeared but did not launch Mieru. Running "apt-get install -f mieru" in X-Term solved the problem.

This apps sounds very cool, cbrPager anc Comix were missing a few features (like volume buttons to change pages, great idea) and this one is much more minimalistic, but very efficient. I think it will become my prefered one.

I second the idea of a "preload next page" function to improve navigation.

Thanks!

Re: [Announce] Mieru: a flexible manga and comic book reader
 
I would love to see this for Maemo 4 but it looks as there are so many features that it would be a real pain to recompile it.

But still, I thought to at least beg. :)

Re: [Announce] Mieru: a flexible manga and comic book reader
 
Hi all,

this morning i got the following errors trying to run mieru. Ran great at the weekend, so i wonder if it's a problem reloading the last used file.


Code:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "mieru.py", line 347, in <module>
    mieru = Mieru()
  File "mieru.py", line 76, in __init__
    self.platform = maemo5.Maemo5(self)
  File "/opt/mieru/maemo5.py", line 24, in __init__
    self.rotationObject = self._startAutorotation()
  File "/opt/mieru/maemo5.py", line 412, in _startAutorotation
    rotationMode = self.mieru.get('rotationMode', self._getDefaultRotationMode()) # get last used mode
  File "mieru.py", line 296, in get
    return self.d.get(key, default)
AttributeError: 'bool' object has no attribute 'get'

anyone know where the last viewed path is stored so i can clear the setting and try?

Cheers

EDIT: Seems home has got itself mounted read-only, so it's most likely this is the cause. Will update once I can resolve and test again.

EDIT 2: read-only issue resolved but same error exists launching mieru - also raised on github bugtracker.

Re: [Announce] Mieru: a flexible manga and comic book reader
 
Great app! it is now my main program for comic/manga reading (the stats shows 700+ pages read so far :D )

Thanks a lot for the read images from folders option, a few of my comics I get are like that so it was a pain with the other apps to have to compress them just to have them load!

And it's really fast (tested with a zip file that had 2000 strip comics and loaded almost instantly) and I like it's simplicity.

Here are my requests


-manga reading mode (so a page starts from the top right instead of top left, this is a manga app after all :D)
-currently the background color behind a comic is white, is it possible to have it in black? it's better for the eyes imo when reading it in the night.
-personally, I am against having too many options for zooming in/out, I think the four options are enough. whenever I read comics I don't see the need to constantly adjust the size ala iphone. but that's just me


-when in "fit to width" mode, the volume buttons could be used for scrolling the page up/down. so when the scrolling reaches the bottom of the page. it opens up a new one.

Development plans
I'd like to add page caching/preload + on-screen paging buttons + manga mode and then push a version to Testing.

I have made a list of possible paging methods that have crossed my mind:
  • on screen buttons
  • swipe gestures - might clash with kinetic scrolling
  • screen clicking/double-clicking
  • proximity sensor, shutter button
  • screen edge swipe - like in Microb
  • accelerometer based (probably won't work very well)

I don't really get this. Do you mean continuous zoom ? The swirl zoom from Microb would be nice for this, but might be quite hard to do right. :)

I remember Comix having something like this - but it was unusable on N900 due to the unadapted GUI.

A library with a touch friendly UI would be nice indeed. :)
I was also thinking about adding something like "bookmarks" for specific pages. Mieru currently remembers only one page per chapter in history. The "bookmarks" might quite nicely blend in with the library functionality.

Well, why not - I'll add a black/white selector. :)

No idea - note that the icon can default to a blue square right after first install due to the infamous Hildon/GTK icon loading bug. But it should display normally after a wile or after a reboot. If you are using Catorize, Mieru should be in the Graphics category.

Well:
  • the core (loading, history, stats, fitting) should work
  • hildon widgets - some might be Fremantle only
  • Clutter (animating the page) - IMO not available in Maemo 4
So theoretically replacing Clutter with a GTK drawable + pixmap and using Maemo 4 only widgets might work.
But I have no Maemo 4 device + I already have my plate quite full. :)
If somebody want's to work on Maemo 4 support, the code is all there and I can give you pointers what exactly might need to be replaced.

thank you, love the app so far been reading on my n900 a lot since intalling this. not sure how you're going to implement onscreen buttons but maybe a small transparent arrow down the middle of the screen that pulls up navigation buttons once pressed? im mostly fine with using the volume button to turn pages but if there's a way to completely navigate using gestures or touch screen buttons that would be nicer

if yes i will install it today thanks! in advace

It means, you can put pictures numbered like 1..n into one zip archive, and they will be handled like a comic book starting with pic #1 and ending at #n.
Also most comic book formats are already like this (cbr, cbz), scanlations too (mostly rar and zip), so you simply put them on the N900 and enjoy.

Well, thats the plan - I'm about done with separating the Core and GUI components of Mieru. When done, it should be possible to quite easily support the N9 with a QML based GUI and the N8x0 with a plain GTK GUI. :D

I have also already applied for the N9 devkit with the aim of porting Mieru and modRana to Hartmattan, so wish me luck. :)

Oh, and page caching is done (in GIT for now).

Hey Martin, is there any possible chance for .chm support?

I've got several of my favorite med books in this format.

piotrus 2011-07-04 04:00

Re: [Announce] Mieru: a flexible manga and comic book reader
 
Pretty please, can we have more zoom options?

If controlable zoom is not possible, something like original x2 x3 x4 and so on would be wonderful.

I like reading my ebooks/comics on the move (walking), but in some comics, particularly for the smaller font comments and such, original (the largest I can get on Mieru) is simply not enough, with the end font being just tiny.

The zoom in the basic picture viewer (the app that was pre-installed) is much better (but of course it does not remember the last read page, and jumps between pages way to easily, making it a pain).

In less important feature request, any chance Mieru could be used on a vertical axis, not horizontal? I am not sure what the proper terminology is, but Mieru only works the |___| screen, and does not rotate the 90 degrees for the rotated one.

Finally: I like scrolling with the arrow buttons, they seem to be "dead" in Mieru.

I think that coding in the first and third request would be easy, and would improve the soft functionality sky high.

I was chatting with my CS friend about it a while ago (I am a rare non CS user of Maemo), and he was suprised Mieru did not support above original zoom, too...

Sadly, now I have the choice of Mieru with insufficient zoom, or picture viewer, which takes minutes to navigate to the page I want, and then jumps around them :( In other words, for now, I've given up on N900 as a portable comic reader :(

Are they paged + do they have images ?

I have made a quick survey and there seems to be a library and even Python bindings for reading CHM files - but seem to be quite dated & would need to be ported to Maemo & MeeGo first.

I'm thinking how to control this, maybe:
  • a simple multiplier that would be 1x by default
  • multitouch gestures on devices where this is available
  • corkscrew zoom like in microb
  • alternate meaning for doubleclick

Also note the images might get quite blurry with zoom larger than the original size.

Mieru should support classic portrait rotation. Check out the corresponding section in Options - you can even force landscape/portrait. :)

Hey Martin. I'm not quite sure what you're exactly asking with this question.

Anyway, this is a screenie for one of the books on my N800 using kchmviewer.

Great app! Looking forward to those improvements! :)

By the way, a zoom-in to the specific location you double-tap would be a nice addition (Especially for those hard-to-read texts) and then zoom-out to the original position. In my case, I use to switch from "Fit to width" to "Original size" and viceversa but you end up scrolling up/down (it gets a bit annoying after a while).

Another option would be a magnifying glass pop-up window, as seen in others cbr readers (like comix) but in a less intrusive fashion (eg: giving you the option of adjusting the zoom level and enabling/disabling it through on-screen buttons or keys).

Cheers!

PD: Does it support bluetooth mouse?
