Specify how episode number is detected.
Example:
series:
- pioneer one:
identified_by: ep
Possible values: ep
, sequence
, date
, id
, auto
Default value is auto
which uses episode history to detect what to use. In absence of reliable history all formats are accepted.
Series which are identified by season, episode.
Examples:
Any series that are numbered in increasing order.
Examples:
Series that are identified by air date.
Examples:
Note: If a date is ambiguous, due to different date formats used in different countries, the most recent interpretation is used (that isn't in the future.) You can use the date_yearfirst
and date_dayfirst
options to alter this behavior.
identified_by: date
date_yearfirst: yes
Series that are identified by anything unique. There are not many built in regexps for this mode, it is mostly useful when your series do not fit into another mode, and you define your own id_regexps
Examples:
Since id is free format, it doesn't support tracking.
FlexGet identifies almost everything by default, but sometimes it may be necessary to customize matching. This can be achieved via ep_regexp and id_regexp.
