MOVIE mode in Anidb

Post by Eye »

Hi,
maybe i am just stupid and over look something Obvious but is there a way to get Filebot to lookupa file as MOVIE mode in Anidb


For example: Thunderbolt Fantasy - Seiyuu Genka
Exists In the anidb https://anidb.net/anime/14786

Yet it seems that I cant get a file to that matched Database entry matched?
I had several times troubles to get ANIDB to Hand out a movie title,
Especially with single file movies not with movie series or such.
Most of the times , i went to an Other source or used something else and edited it by hand,..

best Regards Eye

FileBot does not support AniDB in regards to Movie Mode. TheMovieDB is generally recommended for matching Movie type files.



However, if you manually retrieve the "episode data" by numeric id, then you might be able to make it work accidentally:

Cool, The database identifier workaround seems to work with some of my problems at least ;)

Sadly TheMovieDB doe snot have a that well sorted anime wise
maybe there is an option to do the same as with TheMovieDB?
one episode lookup and one movielook up ?

Thanks and best regard

Lookup-by-Numeric-ID is generally supported for both movie queries and series queries. Wherever you can enter a series / movie as search query, you can also enter a 5+ digit number instead for direct lookup by ID.
