Media syncing improvements:
- Media syncing now happens in the background, so you can continue using
Anki while the media sync completes.
- Aside from syncing at open and close, Anki will sync any media changes
every 15-20 minutes.
- You can click on the sync button while the spinner is active to monitor
progress.
- Long filenames and problematic characters should be handled smoothly now,
instead of causing syncing errors.
- Anki should no longer sometimes forget to download files when a media
sync fails due to network errors.
- When media files are added within Anki, Anki now marks them
in the database immediately, which can make things faster for people with
slower disks if they are not modifying the media folder externally.
Media check improvements:
- The Check Media function now shows progress, and can be interrupted.
- There is now a separate button to generate missing LaTeX.
- If LaTeX fails to build, the problem card will be revealed in the browse
screen.
- When Anki finds files that are too long or would cause errors on some
operating systems, it will automatically rename them and update your notes
to point to the new filename.
Both media sync and the media check now place deleted files in a media.trash
folder inside your profile, instead of placing the files in the system trash.
You can use the Check Media function to either empty the trash, or restore
the deleted files back to your media folder.
