to save space for batch torrents or something?
i mean they are a good 10-20% of the file, and that's how much space you save.

also the last time i had this, my player put the right OPs and ED into the right episode automatically.

not enough pixels

They do that so that you can just delete the OP and ED file, and automatically skip over them. Saves time.

Probably so you can seperate the audio track from them and put it on your phone/music player.

For a while, there was this ordered chapters fuckery where it would play the OP and ED at the right times, but they only needed one copy of the actual thing instead of having it in every ep's file. It never really caught on.

And let me guess, it was all managed using some asinine, poorly-written mpv script, right?

It's just a feature of MKV. Any half decent media player should play it just fine. It's annoying if you're trying to watch on a device that doesn't support it though.

use mpc

>>149428014
you can take them out of the same folder and it will skip the op/ed

it saves space

Smaller filesize?

>>149428014
Just put it back in using a video editor like I do.

because everyone skips those

I hate how it's NCOP/NCED every episode in those situations.

To save space
If they set up the ordered chapters properly it'd play the OP and ED at the appropriate points

pleb tier

Even vlc can do it. What do you even have to be using?

The version of Lain I first watched didn't even include the opening seperately
I didn't even know the show HAD an opening for weeks

You poor soul.

[do a little digging]
Apparently it was an obscure feature in the Matroska standard that only mpv supported properly and no one actually used, until the fansub groups found out about it and started using it, whereupon everyone else scrambled to add it to their players.

This is fucking why we need a uniform standard for the fansub community, instead of relying on the implementation of one or two meme players.
