Detect and fix episode offset
Closed this issue · 1 comments
Some episodes from the 2nd, 3rd, etc seasons instead of starting from 1 keep the counting from the previous season.
For example, episode 1 of attack on titan season 2 is labeled as episode 26, so the name mapping is wrong
This should be detected and fixed.
The problem with that is how MAL organizes its shows. Each show has its individual metadata and episodes start at 1 again.
While there could be a way by requesting the sequel it wouldn't be a guarantee that that first sequel is also the actual direct sequel since I have seen entries with multiple sequels. The agent wouldn't be able to distinguish which one should be used without any guidance.
Another thing is that I would have to move through multiple individual entries and request the data which would be multiple API requests.
Those are currently all compensated by the API I am running in the background but with the official API on the horizon this might not be a given anymore. So API requests need to be low.
Therefore, there is nothing to fix here since it is not how MAL organizes things.
