Custom season names

[updatefreak 11]

Hi,

I have a question for the season names.
For e.g. the tv show "Attack on titan" I have the season name "Staffel 1", "Staffel 2", "Staffel 3" and "The Final Season" (also with Japanese Signs).
So it seams that only the "The Final Season" has a custom/special name. Staffel 1-3 are generic names.

Is it possible to disable custom season names in general?  -> so for my case that its
Staffel 1, Staffel 2, Staffel 3, Staffel 4
(basically that the "The Final Season" is called Staffel 4

I attached a screenshot with the folder structure and the emby overview of this tv show.

The difference in naming is likely following the names which Emby could get at the time of adding to the library (if not all added together).

To change the season name, just edit the name in the metadata for the season.

Disable TVDB Season Metadata provider in library settings.

I presume that will not automatically change back already downloaded season names.

Not AFAIK.

Just to add to this......

I now have to manually edit metadata back to season 1 .... etc..

To get this undone

So I have to delete the tv show's folder in the library and add it again?
Or is re-scanning of the meta data enough?

If it's one or two odd-shows, you can manually edit Season title, as suggested:

If it's a bunch of them,. I reckon removing/re-adding would to the trick with less hassle.

Rescanning is enough I think; but for the one season in your example just edit the metadata - three-dot menu on the season poster -> Edit Metadata, and the name is at the top.
