Am I the only one here successfully using Sonarr to take care of Anime? Sonarr has the ability to sort by absolute/relative episode you just need a profile for it.
If I really need to bother with any renaming, I'll use "RenameMyTVSeries" to mass-rename things, and drop them in the folder where Sonarr wants; or usually just have Sonarr grab the anime itself and apply its renaming rules.
Jellyfin is going to want:
Grouping seasons into a series folder doesn't work well in some cases, because that's not the way they are released in Japan. A new season is (most of the time) effectively an entire new show entry. Show seasons are mostly a north american thing. No matter which software you use, there's always going to be some minor issues if you group seasons into one entry.
In instances like this, you simply use a single Season 1 folder, with absolute naming for episodes. It's really that simple.
This is the main problem I have right now. The example I gave in the post for example. I currently have to list them as entirely separate entries, both with season 01. Not one entry with season 01 or season 02, because that's not how it is in AniDB or Anilist. As I said in another comment, I may checkout Sonarr if Shoko doesn´t work out.
I don't understand why you're naming stuff that way. You use a single FSN:UWB(2014) folder, because the year represents the date the show started. There is no FSN:UBW(2015). It all goes under UBW(2014), even if the episode was released decades later.
I'm naming it that way, because otherwise Jellyfin can't handle it properly for me. Season 2 will not show up with the proper metadata if I put all of it in the same folder. My guess is that because 2014 (season 1)and 2015 (season 2) are two separate entries in both Anilist and AniDB and not grouped together under UBW, that it wants it that way in Jellyfin too.
You're causing your own issues here because you're wanting to name it all the Japanese way. I use AniDB and everything too - and it works just fine as a single series, with a single year, with all 25 episodes in a Season 1 folder with proper metadata download and everything.
Jellyfin doesn't see it because it doesn't know what the hell an "Unlimited Blade Works" released in 2015 is...because it wasn't released in 2015. You need to use AniDB as a secondary provider for Metadata, not a primary provider, because it doesn't match up with how Jellyfin and other English-made programs work.
Interesting. I'll have to look at it again then. I figured that since AniDB also has UBW split between season 1 and 2 (listed as 2014 and 2015) that I had to list them separately too. This does work by the way, but it's just really cluttered. Which metadata provider should I primarily use then if not AniDB or Anilist?
Hopefully it works for my other anime too
I use Sonarr, but it does mess up sometimes for shows even when you mark it as an anime to use absolute numbering. It most often happens with older shows that have lots of OVAs that are sometimes listed as episodes and sometimes listed as specials, depending on the database. So, if you are having Sonarr manage your downloads, then it can grab the wrong episode if its database (I think TVDB) and the release (usually using MAL numbering) disagree.
