- What comic archive formats do you support?
Currently Gazee supports CBR and CBZ, as these are the most prevelant archive formats for comics in the current day.
- A lot of my comics aren't showing up/The log file says my archive extraction failed
Sometimes archives are corrupt, if this is the case, we skip past the comic in our Comic Scan since we can't use it and don't feel the need to present it.
If the extraction failed, it's usually for one two reasons:
-
The archive itself is corrupt in some way, e.g. no magic number or bad header info, and it can't be extracted at all.
-
One of the files inside the archive is corrupt, e.g. an image having bad header info, and it won't be able to be unarchived, causing the whole extraction to abort.
If the archive extraction is failing, you should attempt to redownload it from your provider, if that doesn't work, reach out to your provider and let them know the issue. If it is an archive you've built yourself, regather your scanned images and rebuild the archive using the recommended tools for the job.
There are of course a multitude of other things that can go wrong with archives and this list is no where near exhaustive.
- There are no images in some of my comics!
Then there were likely no images in the archive when it was extracted.
Unarchive your archive manually and verify there were images contained within. If there is, open an issue regarding it and we will help you look into it.
