Question on season with animeFormat

[thedavix]

Hello,

I have a question regarding the animeFormat, I defined it as the following

animeFormat=/home/share/Series/{n}/{'Season '+s}/{n} - {s00e00} - {t}

But I see that the {'Season '+s} is not taken into account like it does for the seriesFormat, it seems it is ignored as you can see in the log

/home/share/Series/Dragon Ball Super//Dragon Ball Super - S04E21 - With New Hope!! in Our Hearts: Farewell, Trunks

I guess it's not a bug, but would there be a way to make this work?

Thanks a lot for your help.

David

Anime don't have season numbers in AniDB.

If you use s00e00 and sxe then FileBot will cross-reference the AniDB absolute number with TheTVDB absolute number to give you SxE numbers based on TheTVDB data. It may work. It may not work. It may be incorrect. It most certainly won't work well for Plex and Kodi and it definitely isn't what you want if you're trying to Convert Absolute to SxE numbers.

Ok, I thought I was missing something regarding Anime

Thank you for the info, I'll have a look on the forum on how to handle better the anime.

If you deal with anime, you either want to process them with AniDB and absolute numbers, or process them via TheTVDB like any other TV Show.

The AniDB episode data + TheTVDB SxE data hack will only work for shows like One Piece or Naruto where the names and absolute number are exactly the same, but not for Anime like Code Geass or Crest of the Stars because those shows are organized very differently in different databases.
