I am not sure what has changed, but some shows are renaming with season numbers that relates to TVDB renaming versus aniDB renaming:
It is causing trouble for me to match results on Plex unless I manually rename every episode and folder to season 1.
Can anyone please provide suggestions?
Thank you.

Re: Filebot weird season rename with AniDB
If you're using Plex, then you can't use AniDB, unless you're using the 3rd party HAMA plug-in in which case you want Absolute numbering.
Instead, convert your episodes to TheTVDB naming and then let Plex do it's thing:
viewtopic.php?t=2769
If must use AniDB, but don't want SxE numbers, then you'll need to adjust your custom format and avoid SxE bindings such as {s} or {s00e00}. The {plex} binding is generally recommended, and that will result in HAMA compatible Absolute numbering for AniDB episode information.

Re: Filebot weird season rename with AniDB
Thank you for the quick reply.
I am using the HAMA plug in for plex and absolute series scanner.
Are you suggesting I should change my format expression and eliminate it from renaming the episode file with SxE expressions?
If so, I am not sure what I should change it to since I have used the ones in the examples:

I don’t personally use HAMA, but whatever naming may be recommended by the HAMA developers, FileBot will be able to produce it.
The {plex} binding will probably do just fine:

Re: Filebot weird season rename with AniDB
It looks like Plex is happy with using {plex} as the format expression.
Thank you!
