Getting reports of CatalogScanner responses not showing up, sorry for the difficulties, it seems like Twitter is marking the bot's tweets as spam. Let me know if you're having issues, otherwise, liking the tweets for the bot may help show Twitter it's not spam.

Wow! it seems like we hit the 1000 tweet per day limit on the API. Unfortunately I will have to turn off the bot for tonight, maybe put some better rate limiting tomorrow... Sorry for the inconvenience.

The bot now supports scanning DIYs! Simply record a video scrolling through your list of recipes (works better with slow scrolling/left joystick), trim the video, and tweet it by tagging @CatalogScanner to have it automatically parsed! Example:

Did you know that the code for CatalogScanner is open source? It's all written in clean and well commented Python, using OpenCV and Tesseract. Feel free to play around or use it as a learning tool!

@skarlittekaos_ Video is too long (25s max). Make sure you hold down the analog stick, and trim the video. Use the left analog stick for DIY videos and right analog stick for Catalogs.

@j__eng By "recipes", do you mean "Can Craft" section? If so, when importing your DIYs, at the bottom click "Bulk Actions" and then "Set every craftable item to Can Craft". Then they should all show up in that section.
