I have those animated series and I organize them as they are shown on TheTVDB.
I want to put the animated series into Infuse, I know Infuse only pulls metadata from TMDB, is there a way to get it organized nicely if I put it in?
I ask because I haven’t published them yet, I wanted to check with you first.
These will probably be tough to get changed over. For example the first pink panther you have is “The Pink Phink” as episode S01E01 according to TVDB but in reality it was a movie “short” and is classified as such both on IMDB https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0058472/
and also on TMDB
TMDB is a stickler for first release info and that’s what they stick with so even though later this was the first episode of the series it was released as a movie short first.
It would be great if Infuse could also get metadata from thetvdb, I know I’ve done it before because I was researching Infuse.
It’s only because of those two series in particular that it prevents me from putting my content on Infuse, the rest all good
I very seriously doubt if Infuse will ever use TVDB again. It was a pretty major undertaking to switch to all TMDB. If you really need these two then I think your only option is to go through the TVDB names and change them to match the TMDB names.
I’d also suggest you standardize on the first option for Infuse TV naming where you would have this format
“The Flash 2014 S01E01.mkv”
Having both the series name along with the year and season number with episode number for each file will match a vast majority of the time.
