"(Gekijouban) Shakugan no Shana" specials mapping

[atraholt]

This one's a bit of a trickster.

TheTVDB maps The Sovereign Carmel-san, s0e05.

AniDB considers this a T for the movie, Gekijouban Shakugan no Shana. and maps it as T5 and T6. In all technicality, these two things aired back to back with a commercial break between them.

I'm not sure Ts can be mapped?

In the Kodi scraper, Ts are treated as specials starting at 201+, so it is possible to map them. Other apps might not recognize that though.
The best you can do in this case is map the multiple anidb episodes to the same tvdb episode, so they'll all have the same tvdb plot and thumbnail.

My read on the tvdb plot summary, though, suggests that it also includes T4 ("Shakugan no Shana The Movie Promotional Video"). Do you agree?

[atraholt]

Not sure if HAMA in Plex will recognize that, which is the one I use. The Kodi scraper gets you banned from AniDB, so I daren't use it.

T4, if I recall correctly, was on air before the movie was in theatres. T5 and T6, which was the one featuring Carmel, aired after the movie was in theatres, further promoting it.

Having not got any of the files to check (or even watched Shana past the first season), I'll defer to your judgement on T4.

As for HAMA, you'll have to ask over there how they handle trailer mappings. (There are, by my count, two other instances already in the mapping list.)

The full fix will be:

<anime anidbid="4388" tvdbid="78962" defaulttvdbseason="0" episodeoffset="3" imdbid="tt0994794">
    <name>Gekijouban Shakugan no Shana</name>
    <mapping-list>
      <mapping anidbseason="0" tvdbseason="0">;1-6;2-0;3-0;4-0;6-0;7-0;205-5;206-5;</mapping>
    </mapping-list>
  </anime>

Also worth mentioning that importing the equivalent special from MyAnimeList also only marked T5 and T6 on AniDB, so I think we've got it right.
