Kodi's giving me a bit of a headache with how it handles the "special" episodes of certain anime series. Current example is Re:ZERO; It scrapes all of the special episodes fine (all metadata shows up) but it orders them between the normal episodes of the show (Episode 01, Special 01, Episode 02, Special 02, etc...) and this is a huge pain when actually trying to watch the show. Normally it categorizes them as their own "season" which is separate from the show, but sometimes it won't and it will bunch them all into one with the order varying depending on the show, and I've even had it put special episodes in a separate folder AND in with other seasons. I've made certain to try all of the ordering settings and check my naming format with TVDB. Specials are in a separate folder named "specials" and each special is named "S00E___" according to its episode number listed on TVDB. Kinda at the end of my rope here after scouring the internet for fixes, none of which have worked and my last resort is editing NFO files if I absolutely have to and am sure it will fix the issue. Any help would be appreciated, and I'll add screenshots or post more information if I need to.
